Learning lots of spells during classes, Nessia became stressed.
  Lately, there had been an increase in monster attacks. Oh, I haven't explained about these monsters yet. They are the opposite of the magical creatures that Nessia knows about.
  Maybe you had heard about werewolves. They are very common monsters and also can blend into large crowds. Werewolves are basically creatures that could transform into a normal human and hide its scary ears and tail and goes with a crowd of people until it's the right time to attack. 
  Werewolves are unique too. They have different skin colours when they transform into a wolf. Most have grey fur with some patterns, but others have black, brown or albino colours.
  The more rare monsters are more terrifying. They look like monsters that are shown in horror movies. They are a mutated animal with red eyes and act very violently. Each of them have special abilities.
  Take a big, giant rabbit with claws as an example. They can control other people while being invisible, which made other people afraid of it.
  The academy anounced that the summer holidays are nearing, so they decided to host parties and activities for the students to enjoy, and also allow them to visit their parents or stay.
  Nessia was in her dorm room organizing everything. She packed up her bag and carried it. ''I can't wait to visit my mother again!'' Nessia opened her dorm room and took the school's carriage home.
  She knocked on her house door and Mrs Aglorin answered the door immediately. ''Nessia! You're back home!'' Mrs Aglorin hugged Nessia warmly. 
  ''Yeah... Hello mom,'' Nessia smiled as Mrs Aglorin let her in. Mrs Aglorin went to the kitchen then laid food on the dining table. ''Did you eat dinner? I cooked your favourite dishes,'' she asked Nessia. 
  Nessia shook her head, ''No, I did not. Thank you mother!'' Nessia went to wash her hands and ate dinner with Mrs Aglorin. After a while, Nessia's mother asked what sounded like a million questions.
 ''How's school?'' ''I heard you passed the exams with the highest grade in the class.'' ''Did you get bullied?'' ''Made any friends?'' ''Are classes fun?''
  Nessia swallowed her food and replied, ''Fun, I know, maybe, what are the other questions again?'' Mrs Aglorin gave up asking questions and the dinner became quiet, as only chewing noises were heard.
  ''I'm going to my room,'' Nessia said after finishing her meal and went upstairs. 
  Unpacking a few things from her bag, she felt like she's cozy at home. Nessia smiled as she remembered the memories of her and her mother inside her room.
  She did what she usually did before sleeping and slept for the night, on her old, comfy bed.
*****
  As always, the sun rose and it was time for Nessia to wake up. She did her usual morning routine and ate breakfast with her mother.
  She soon went back into her room again, remembering about the time she became really tired and Dia made fun of her.
  After reading her spell textbook, she found out that Dia casted a temporary curse on her that drains Nessia's energy.
  But when did she do that?
  While thinking about this, a sudden scream was heard. It didn't sound like Nessia's mother, but it might be her neighbour.
  She quickly went downstairs, and saw her mother panicking. Outside the window, a gigantic grey werewolf was attacking a girl.
  Nessia decided to help the girl, and at the same time, felt that the girl was familiar.
  Ever since the bullying accident, Dia never bullied the same person again.
  Wait... That's Riveria Rain!
  Nessia rushed and casted a spell that shoots projectiles to the werewolf. The werewolf howled and charged at Nessia aggressively. 
  Nessia dodged and casted a shield spell for Riveria. ''...Nessia?'' she said as Nessia continued shooting projectiles at the werewolf.
  Nessia continued fighting until the werewolf decided to run away, and turned to Riveria. 
  Riveria was surprised. ''Nessia... First you defended me from Dia, and now you saved me from a werewolf... You don't have to keep protecting me, I'm just a C grade student...'' Riveria sighed as Nessia noticed her torn clothes.
  Nessia thought that the werewolf torn her clothes, but it was Riveria's grandparents. They always wanted Riveria to do housework for them and also study very hard at the same time. 
  Riveria was heading to the grocery stall before the werewolf attacked her.
  ''You... need to go back to your house. It's not safe here,'' Nessia adviced.
  Riveria shook her head, ''No... my... grandparents ran out of bread and I needed to go to the store to buy it for them.''
  ''Then I'll go with you,'' with confidence, Nessia held Riveria's hands. ''I'll protect you until you reach home.''
  Riveria's eyes were filled with tears. ''T - thank you...'' and they slowly walked to the grocery store.

The next morning while they're eating breakfast, Jerard seems to be distracted.

"Dad, everything alright?" Red asks after eating a bite of her scrambled eggs.

"Yeah, just had a bit too much to eat last night," Jerard replies as he twists the piece of bacon in his hands before taking a bite of it. They all finish breakfast, Jerard and Randy leaving for the sawmill as Red starts doing the dishes.

"Jerard," Randy states as they leave the house.

"Yeah?"

"What's really bothering you?" Jerard glances over at the house, looking through the living room window to see if Red is near, she's in the back of the kitchen, dancing to the music playing on her phone as she does the dishes.

"I saw a, werewolf, in the woods last night," Jerard finally replies.

"A werewolf? Sure you weren't looking at your reflection?"

"I'm sure. It looked so much like me though…"

"Months since we got rid of that demon and the first supernatural thing to appear isn't a sasquatch," Randy says as he shakes his head, "Where did you see it?"

"Far off in the woods, a good ten minutes from the house, so definitely a couple miles away,"

"Did they seem dangerous? Did you talk to them or anything?"

"I stayed out of sight from them, but I saw them trying to fight a bear. They stopped when its cub came running out though...it's hard to say if they're dangerous or not,"

"Hmm...it could be one of the hundreds of tourists flooding into our town. Have you seen anyone suspicious?"

"No...wait, there was this guy at the market, never told us his name, but he has dark brown hair, a beard like mine, and he works at the Haunted Trails thing, he was the one who gave Red the business card,"

Randy puts a hand to his chin.

"If my vast knowledge of horror movies has anything to say, it'd be that whoever this werewolf is could be a threat. If the guy you're talking about really is the werewolf, working at a haunted trail would be the perfect cover, and give him plenty of opportunities to take people somewhere secluded...we best keep an eye out when we go tomorrow, let me know who it is when you see them, alright?"

"Alright,"

Jerard and Randy get into their trucks and head of for the sawmill as Red washes her hands and dries them off. She goes over to the computer and sits down at the desk, going to youtube and watching funny animal videos.

I want a cat so bad, look at how fluffy and funny they are. Too bad dad's against getting any pets, especially dogs…

She changes over to watching one of her favorite youtubers and watches them put halloween costumes on their pets. After nearly an hour has passed, she hears something, it sounds like screaming.

"Help! Help!" A muffled man's voice screams. It's coming from the back of the house.

Red darts to the back doors, seeing two men running towards the house. The one closer to the house is a man with bright red hair wearing jeans and a black shirt, he has a slash on his right arm. Red's unable to see the face of the other person, but sees they have brown hair and are wearing jeans and a dark blue hoodie. He has a knife in his hand.

As the red-haired guy comes running onto the porch Red instinctively opens the door, letting him in.

"Thank you!" The guy exclaims as Red closes the door and locks it. The guy with the knife quickly reaches the door. She's surprised to see its the man from the market.

"Hey, let me in!" He exclaims as he bangs on the glass, "Don't let him get away!" Red backs away from the door, turning when she hears rapid footsteps. She sees the red-haired man run out the front door and disappear, something that seems too fast to do in mere seconds. The dark-brown haired guy runs off the porch and around the house, Red hurrying over to the living room window. The red-haired man is already long gone somehow, the dark-brown man seeing this and coming to a halt.

Red tenses up when the man turns around and looks at her for a second before he starts walking to the front door. She quickly grabs a handgun underneath the coffee table, opening the front door and pointing it at the man who stops in his tracks.

"Stay where you are." She states, "Why were you chasing that guy?"

"Because that wasn't a guy, it was a skinwalker," The guy replies.

Those words make Red lower the gun a bit as she looks off towards the dirt road where the man had disappeared running down.

"It seems like we got off on the wrong foot" The man says as he puts the knife away and cautiously walks towards Red, holding out a hand, "The name's John," He stops a couple feet from her. Red looks at him, then his hand, then his other hand which is resting by his side, then back up at his face. She lowers the gun.

"Red," She replies, glancing down at his hand instead of shaking it. John puts his hand down, a bit disappointed.

"You can shoot me all you want, but that won't do anything, you should know how tough werewolves are," He says bluntly, catching Red by surprise, "What's the matter? Your dad never tell you what he is? Surely you've found out by know,"

"...How do you know he's a werewolf?"

"Because I'm one. I could smell him the second you two walked to the adult costumes section, surely he must have smelled me and realized that I'm like him,"

"...We've never, met, another werewolf,"

"Really? Surely in a place like this you've come across at least a couple by now, I can't be the first,"

"You are. My dad's been the only one here for as long as I've been alive,"

"Interesting…" John mutters as he looks around at the surrounding woods, "Well then, as far as your dad's concerned I was never here. I'd say keep an eye out for that guy who ran off, but Im sure its shed its skin by now and is looking for a new one...do you have school at all?"

"Not for the rest of this week,"

"Good, stay inside, don't let anyone but family in, if you have any sage, burn it and circle your house with it to keep it away. If you see anyone or anything acting strangely, stay away from them. Oh, and especially stay inside at night, I don't know about your dad but, I'm not...super safe, to be around when I go hunting okay?" Red nods in response, "Good, shoot I just remembered, are you going to the haunted trail at all this month?"

"We were planning on going tomorrow night," John has a somewhat troubled look, but then thinks of something.

"Try to come around eight then, that's when I'll be the leader for taking a group of people, I'll make sure to keep an eye out for you and your family. If you can't make it around that time, I'd suggest you don't come at all, I have no doubts the skinwalker will be looking there for its next meal. You know what?" He reaches into his pocket and pulls out his phone, "Would you mind giving me your number? That way I can let you know if I manage to get it before tomorrow night,"

"...Sure," Red hesitantly takes his phone, putting her number in it and handing it back.

"Stay safe Red, and remember, I was never here," John says as he starts walking backwards. He then turns around, running off and disappearing down the dirt road. Red stands there still a bit baffled by the conversation that just took place.

There's a werewolf, and a skinwalker in our town now? What else could there be?

Red looks around at the surrounding woods, getting that sudden feeling of them closing in towards the house. She heads inside, locking the front door and then walking around the entire house, making sure each and every door and window is locked. She then closes the blinds on the back door and closes the curtains on the living room window, turning on a lamp to provide light before putting the gun back under the coffee table. Jerard and Randy won't be home until dinner time, wednesday was their only day off for the week.

It's only nine o'clock, what am I suppose to do until five knowing there's some creepy monster thing somewhere? I should burn some sage, grandpa must have some lying around.

Red grabs her phone and looks up what sage looks like and how to use it. She heads into the kitchen, looking in the cabinets closer to the backdoor where most of grandpa's herbs and other things are kept. She finds a jar filled with small bundles of faded brownish-green leaves. She takes out the jar, pulling out one of the bundles, it has a bit of a funny smell to it. She finds a lighter in a drawer by the kitchen sink and opens the front door, looking around the woods for anything.

Red sees nothing and cautiously steps outside, closing the door quietly as to not disturb the silence. The cool fall air is accompanied by a weak breeze that makes the leaves in the trees shiver and huddle together for warmth. She lights the lighter and puts the flame at the end of the sage. It catches fire, quickly turning an ashy black and a trail of smoke starts emitting from it. She turns off the lighter and starts the trek around her house, the trail of smoke following her. As she walks around the house she finds herself watching the woods, the smell of the sage burning bringing a bit of comfort to her.

Red's relieved to walk all the way around the house without seeing anything, and hearing nothing but the sounds of the sleepy forest as it gets ready for the approaching winter. She completes the circle, waving the sage around to put it out and heads back inside, feeling a bit safer. She puts the sage on a plate and sets it by the sink, putting the lighter back in the drawer. She sits down on the couch and turns on the tv, which is still on the channel from last night, a horror movie playing.

Red quickly changes the channel to on playing cartoons. The cartoons are unable to shake off the feeling of dread that are clawing at her shoulders. She jumps a bit when her phone suddenly gets a text from an unknown number. She opens it and reads it.

"This is John, I'm sending you this text so you have my number, just in case you need to contact me," She closes her messages and looks back to the tv.

Is he really a werewolf? He just said it so, suddenly, and out of the blue...maybe I should tell dad...

When a creature, thought to have been nothing more than a fairy tale reemerges and starts hunting down the people in her town, Red will uncover the dark past of her town, and the sharp teeth it bares.

“There are six stats you can enhance. From my understanding, intelligence is correlated with memory and your ability to think. Mental capacity is unknown at the moment, because there’s no way to test it. Cell vitality affects your recovery rate. Reaction speed and muscle density are obvious and they’re the most useful stats for us. Reaction speed allows you to see objects moving at high speed, and when you reach a certain level, you can even see the trajectory of bullets. Of course your body has to move fast enough, that’s what muscle density is for. It increases your strength and toughness. Immunization strength is also an important factor, if your immunization is strong enough during Resident Evil, you wouldn’t get infected.”

“That’s all for enhancements, we will continue with exchangeable items. I will advise you two to not exchange any items and spend all your points in cell vitality, reaction speed, muscle density, and immunization strength, with a focus on reaction speed and muscle density. Otherwise you won’t even be able to keep up with the running.”

Then Jie turned to Zheng. “Since you have enough rewards, you should just go for a genetic and whole body enhancement. But what you want is up to you. Then spend the remaining points on stats and some weapons. You will be the strongest one among us in the next movie so you should probably also get a magical item.”

Zheng nodded. “That’s what I am thinking. Out of all the horror movies I have seen, supernaturals like The Grudge are the most dangerous. Your first one, Nightmare on Elm Street, is the same. So I am planning on getting a weapon that can kill these type of monsters. Though it might be rather expensive.”

“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go check them out then I will have Nana make you a big meal.”

The four walked toward the sphere with excitement. Especially since it’s the first time for three of them. They were going to surpass normal people from now on.

Zheng stood under God then closed his eyes. He experienced that feeling of being connected to God again.

“First take a look at genetic and body enhancement.”

The screen focused on support items category then listed all the possible enhancements. He filtered all of them and only looked at rank B and C enhancements. Even then the number was still in double digits.

“Spider-Man genetic mutation, rating 83, applicable to movies that require high dexterity. Web shooter can be used in any circumstances. Requires a rank B reward and 2000 points.”

“High level Qi, rating 87, applicable to movies that require close combat. Can buff stats substantially in short period of time. Requires rank B reward, 2500 points, and intermediate level Qi.”

“High level werewolf genetic mutation, rating 88, applicable to most movies. Has the ability to transform into a werewolf, increasing stats substantially temporarily. Owner will not be affected by the instincts of werewolf bloodline. Requires rank B reward, 2700 points, and entry level werewolf mutation.”

“Vampire Count (rank) genetic mutation, rating 90, applicable to most movies. Has blood energy and access to most blood magic. Rank Count increases vitality substantially, can recover from any injury as long as brain and heart are not destroyed. Owner will not be affected by sunlight and silver. Requires rank B reward, 3000 points, and Vampire Viscount mutation.”

As Zheng was looking, a thought came to his mind then he flipped to the rank A enhancements list. And there they were, top level Qi, werewolf mutation, and vampire mutation. These all required their rank B counterparts.

“God, I have a question, can I choose two bloodlines or genetic mutations at the same time?”

“Yes, but it will have unpredictable result. The different genetics could absorb or proliferate each other. You have a seventy percent chance of becoming a non- human being.”

That probably means monster. Zheng nodded as he made his decision. He separated the rank B reward to three rank C rewards. Then one of the rank C into three rank Ds. He exchanged for rank D low level Qi, and rank D Vampire Baron. Then their rank C counterparts. All he had left is a rank D reward.

“Low level Qi costs 500 points, Vampire Baron costs 800, intermediate Qi 1200, Vampire Viscount 1500. Shit’s too damn expensive.”

Zheng counted, this had already used up 4000 points. God forbid, he risked his life to complete a side quest for that.

The other three people were looking at him in shock. A beam of light shone on Zheng then lifted him to the air. Countless particles moved from the light to Zheng’s body. This lasted several minutes.

Jie suddenly yelled, “Honey, come look at Jesus!”

Lan was acting better than the men. She asked Jie, “Are our enhancements going to be so dramatic?”

“No. When you enhance your stats, some particles will float from God into your body then you will feel stronger. He probably exchanged something amazing.”

Another few minutes passed and Zheng fell back to the ground. He gave the others a strange feeling. He was just slightly handsome before but when they look at him now, he seemed a little strangely pretty.

Zheng quickly looked at his stats. Intelligence 187, mental capacity 232, cell vitality 321, reaction speed 287, muscle density 302, immunization 331. These stats surprised him, it was only some low level enhancements but he was almost three times stronger than a normal person.

Then he looked at his abilities. Qi and blood energy. Qi is a form of life force, it will recover naturally. As Qi increases, a person’s stats increase. Blood energy is specific to vampires. It comes from a power core in the brain and allows vampires to use some blood magic.

Zheng finally opened his eyes and saw them looking at him. “What’s wrong? Did my face change?”

He panicked a bit and touched his face, then looked at his body. He was afraid genetic mutations would make him a monster. But nothing seemed too strange. “Why were you looking at me like that? Scared the shit out of me.”

They laughed awkwardly. “How’s it? Tell us what you chose and what are your stats?

“I separated the rank B reward into rank C and D rewards. Then exchanged entry level and intermediate level Qi. And also exchanged vampire mutation.” Then he told them about his stats.

Then three were envious of that. Lan touched her head and said, “Do you think those Xian (Taoist immortals), ghost, vampires, werewolves in tales and legends are real? They were people that got away from this place. Perhaps this place existed since ancient times. Of course there were no horror movies back then but there was still horror tales and stories.”

Lan continued, “Because no matter if it was Xian or vampires or werewolves, their first generations were always the strongest. Perhaps the first gens were people that came from this place, but their descendants gradually became weaker because they lack the source of power. Is this possible?”

Xiaoyi asked, “Then what about this place? A place that can even give you the bloodline of God. Who could have created this place?”

Lan waved her hand. “Perhaps the real God or some devil. Who knows? This whole place is a mystery. Oh Zheng, did you get any abilities?”

“Yea, Qi and blood energy. But I still don’t know how to use them yet. What about you guys, did you get your enhancements yet?”

Xiaoyi jumped six feet high. Then said with excitement, “I feel like my body’s full of power. And I could see everything clearly. How are you feeling?”

That said, Zheng felt his surrounding was crystal clear. He could even see scratches on the doors far away. Then he jumped nine feet high.

“Impressive!”, Lan and Xiaoyi exclaimed.

Jie laughed, “Great, hurry up and figure out your abilities. After all they required several rewards. And look at sci-fi weapons. A rank D reward could get something nice. Your abilities cost two rank Cs and Ds, they must be strong.”

Zheng connected with God again and focused on sci-fi weapons. It had everything from swords to RPGs and even lightsabers and plasma guns. He even saw a combat robot. It required 20000 points and a rank A reward.

He turned to something more affordable and looked at modernized weapons. Guns were inexpensive, even an anti-air rocket launcher only cost 50 points. But the unlimited ammo counterpart cost 2000 points. It’s forty times more.

Then he looked at the magical items. He played enough games and could borrow info from those games. One time use scrolls were inexpensive, only cost twice as much as a grenade. A lightning scroll cost 30 points, frostbolt 50. Most of the weapons were close combat weapons. A glowing sword cost 1000.

Zheng considered what weapon he wanted to use. As his stats increases, ranged weapons and sci-fi weapons would become less effective. Perhaps he will get to a point where he moves faster than a bullet or so tough that even a bullet couldn’t penetrate him. Or strong enough to kill someone with just a finger.

Also considering the fear he had of ghosts and supernaturals, he decided to choose a magical close combat weapon.

As he was scrolling through the list, a ring caught his attention. It had the strange name Na. A ring created by Xiuzhen technology. It had a subspace of 1.5 cubic meters and can be activated with Qi and other Xiuzhen related energy. Once activated it would create an energy field around your fist. This energy field could damage supernatural beings.

Zheng thought this item was totally made for him. Close combat, energy field, and can be used with Qi. Another surprise was it had a subspace to store items. He could bring more food and medication to movies.

“Alright then that’s it. Even though it’s a little expensive.”

1500 points and a rank D reward. He almost used up all he had.

When Zheng opened his eyes, a ring appeared in front of him. It’s a bronze ring with a dragon carved on it.

Jie asked curiously, “Something from entertainment category? Is this for that girl?”

Zheng smiled then without saying anything, he put on the ring. Then he felt energy moved from his abdomen to his finger. He could sense the subspace on his mind. And this was also his first time sensing Qi.

“Try and touch it.” Zheng held out his right hand with a smile. Jie moved his hand over then quickly moved away as if he received an electrical shock.

“Is this an electric shock ring?”, Lan asked.

“No, this is a Xiuzhen item. Something created by the Chinese immortals, Xian. It has the name of Na and can store 1.5 cubic meters of items, and can also attack supernaturals. In other words we have something to deal with those movies. Haha.”

They were looking at him with jealousy again. Zheng knew he obtained everything by luck and any person would be jealous of it. So he used the remaining 1000 points for medications, antidotes and support items. This made the three of them feel better.

Jie said, “Okay, bring your women and come eat in my house. My wife has executive chef level cooking. God is rather generous on food, you can create any food in the kitchen. Then you will start training with me.”

“Training?”

“Yes, training. Your stats can increase with training. From my observation, people in special forces can almost rival Zheng in stats, they’re only missing special abilities. But their combat techniques and endurance are much more refined. Zheng may not win against them in a duel. I’ve been training during the resting sessions every time. You will also have to learn shooting and everything. I have a training ground in my basement. We will train hard, for the next movie.”

“Not for the next movie. For staying alive,” Zheng told himself silently. He needed to live no matter what. And bring his woman back to the real world.


“Want to know the meaning of life? Want to live… a real life?” The world changes when you click YES. In God’s dimension, you have to keep getting stronger, keep evolving to survive one horror movie after another. Do you kill everyone in your way to reach the end as a lone king? Or fight along with your comrades and survive through the support of friends? Everything was just for staying alive. Until you find the secret of God’s dimension. Who is the real enemy? 

"Why are you staring at me, big brother Dro?" Fina said as she saw Dro staring at her with a stunned expression on his face.
Hearing her words, he recovered from his stunned state, shook his head and said, "It's nothing important, don't worry about it."
She nodded, "Alright, big brother Dro—Big brother Dro, can we leave this cave already? I want to go outside and breathe in some fresh air."
Dro shook his head, "Not yet. I have to do something first."
The girl furrowed her eyebrows, "What are you going to do?"
"I am not going to take long. Just wait a bit."
She nodded her head and sighed heavily then jumped down butt first on the ground, lied down on her back, looked at the rock ceiling above and closed her eyes, "Call me when you are done, big brother Dro." 
He nodded to her which she didn't see; then thought as he looked around, "Now where is my weapon." After a few moments of looking around, he saw his weapon lying on the ground enveloped within a golden light and he thought, "There it is." He walked up to it and touched it with his right hand.
<Vampire Great Sword, Item Grade: Blue, 2H Sword, Level Required: 1, Damage 4-7, Strength +3, Vitality +1, Owner: Dro (If used by anyone else than the owner all stats will be halved)>
"Owner? That's new… Maybe when players die they drop all their items on death?" he thought and then tapped on the item.
<Vampire Great Sword, Item Grade: Blue, 2H Sword, Level Required: 1, Damage 4-7, Strength +3, Vitality +1, You are the rightful owner of the weapon all stats will remain as they are, Item Received>
He opened the menu; from the menu, he selected the inventory option and the inventory window opened. Afterwards, he equipped the previously dropped weapon and closed the inventory window. 
He moved his eyes to the corpse of the fallen Alpha Werewolf and saw that it was enveloped in the same golden light as his weapon. He walked up to the corpse and touched it with his right hand, opening the loot window and showing him the dropped items.
<Werewolf Sash, Item Grade: Blue, Leather Belt, Level Required: 10, Unindentified>
"A blue grade item? Cool! That's an even higher grade than the last item I received from a monster drop." He shook his head and sighed inwardly, "But it seems I will have to cut the head off." He tapped on the item.
<Werewolf Sash, Item Grade: Blue, Leather Belt, Level Required: 10, Unidentified, Received>
"I can't let Fina see me beheading a corpse," he thought then turned around and saw Fina laying on the ground with closed eyes. He turned back to the corpse, unsheathed his sword and slashed towards the neck of the fallen Alpha Werewolf – Zjir. The head detached itself from the body and it got enveloped in a golden light. He bent down and touched the head which opened the loot window. 
<Alpha Werewolf's Zjir's head>
"There it is," he thought; then tapped the head with his hand and a notification message followed.
<Alpha Werewolf's Zjir's head, Received>
After standing up, he looked at the corpse, frowned and thought, "I have to hide the corpse, I can't let an innocent child see a beheaded corpse. It will without a doubt scar her, it's not something anyone should see… The only reason I was able to keep my calm when Riku beheaded Juri and why I could behead Zjir is that there are much more disturbing things on the internet and I have gotten numb to things like these. Some horror movies just go too far…" His body shook from the thought. He picked up the corpse then walked to the place where Fina came from and threw the corpse in that direction. He then turned away and looked at the girl lying peacefully on the ground, "Fina!"
Her eyes opened and she jumped to her feet, "Did you do what you had to do, big brother Dro?" 
"I did." He walked to where he came from, "Let's go."
"Mhm," she ran up to Dro; turned around and tilted her head in confusion, "Where did the Werewolf's corpse go?
"That doesn't matter, let's go," he urged.
She shrugged her shoulders, "Alright, big brother Dro."
The two of them started walking to the entrance of the cave.
"Big Brother Dro everywhere I look I can see perfectly clear but when that Werewolf brought me into this cave, I could only see darkness but now its all perfectly clear like its daytime." She said with amazement and wonder in her voice.
"Now that she mentions it, she is right. I didn't think about it as I walked through the cave before but it seems Vampires can see perfectly in the darkness." He chuckled and his thoughts continued, "Well I guess it makes sense."
"What's so funny, big brother Dro?"
"It's nothing… Fina, how long since that Werewolf brought you into this cave?"
"Mhmmm?—I think it was a year maybe even more. I am not sure myself." She shook her head.
"That long?" He showed surprise on his face.
She nodded, "Mhm."
Dro turned his eyes to her and saw that her health was different than it was before. 
<Fina, Dro's Pet, Level 0>
<HP: 600/600>
"Huh? 600 health? That's even more than what I had when I was <Level 0>," he thought and then stopped in his tracks.
She walked a few steps further but then stopped as well as she saw that Dro was no longer walking alongside her. She turned around and faced him who was a few steps away from her, "Why did you stop, big brother Dro?"
He without answering her, extended his hand, clenched his fist and then unclenched it, the menu opened and looking through the menu he saw a new option, <Fina Character>. He tapped on it and a window in the same format as his character window. He carefully looked through every line of text in the window.
<Linen Shirt, Item Grade: White, Chest, Armour: 1>
<Linen Pants, Item Grade: White, Pants, Armour: 1>
<Simple Slippers, Item Grade: White, Boots>
"Big brother Dro what to those hand motions mean and why are you just standing there and staring into space?" She tilted her head as she wondered.
<Name: Fina, Race: Hybrid (Vampire, Werewolf Of The Old), Class: Lycanthrope, Level: 0>
<Health: 600/600, Energy: 100/100>
<Strength: 4, Dexterity: 7, Intellect: 1, Vitality: 7. Spirit: 1, Luck: 1, Armour: 2>
"Wait! What?! Hybrid?! Werewolf of the old?! Wasn't she supposed to be a human?!" he thought greatly alarmed and then he moved his eyes to her skills. 
<Skills>
But right before he could look at her first skill, the character window closed and he felt some pain on the back of his head. "What happened," he mumbled and he saw Fina's angry face, which was not below him but above him.
"Don't you ignore me!" she shouted.
<Fina Favourability -1>

"Mama! Mama! I want more candy! Can't we go back to the festival to get some?" Emilia asked looking up at her mother with large pleading green eyes. 
Telara nodded in agreement with her sister before she said. "I want more candy too!"
The girls proceeded to chant about sweets, and their mother bit her lip, looking as if she would give in to their pleading, after all the mid autumn festival only comes once a year. Placing a hand on his wife's shoulder the girls' father said. "You don't need anymore candy. If you eat too many sweets all of your teeth will fall out, just like old lady Violet down at the library." 
Both of the girls gave a shocked expression and clapped their hands over their mouths before they checked to make sure all of their teeth were still intact. Both of the parents smiled and chuckled softly at their daughters' reactions. Their father gave them both a kiss on the forehead before going to his office and their mother said. "He is right girls, now go and get ready for bed. You two wouldn't want to be sleepy for your fifth birthday celebration tomorrow, now would you?"
They shook their heads and hurriedly ran up the stairs towards their bedroom to be greeted by their nanny. Letting out a sigh their mother headed towards her husbands office to let him know she would be back down after the girls bedtime story. "Michael I think I'm going to read the girls' bedtime stor-"
She was stopped as she had come around the corner and into the office when her husband hushed her. "Shh be quiet Ana... I saw someone lurking around outside, near the edge of the trees."
Coming to the window where her husband stood she pushed the curtain back a little farther to look outside with him. After staring at the tree line for a few moments she was about to say he was seeing things, however then she saw it, a large figure slowly creeping closer to their home just beyond the light of the full moon. In a hushed voice Ana asked. "What do we do? Should we go back to town and notify the guards?"
Michael shook his head. "No I'm going to go and tell the man off myself. He has no right approaching an earl's home in such a manner."
"Maybe that's not the best idea, we don't know his intentions." Anastasia followed after her husband as he walked towards their bedroom. She had felt a chill go down her spine when she was contemplating the figure which was stalking through the underbrush. 
Michael grabbed his sword which sat near his side of the bed, and secured it around his waist. "You have nothing to worry about, it is probably just a thief looking for something valuable. I'm going to go scare him off and then I will be back in a moment."
Hurriedly Ana went to her nightstand and pulled open a drawer before feeling around and lifting out the false bottom. A silver dagger glistened in the secret compartment. Once she had retrieved the dagger she ran after her husband, having heard him already make it out the front door. 
She walked out into the cool night and saw Michael quickly making his way towards the forest. She followed after him, cursing her dress as it wasn't allowing her to move as quickly as she wanted. Ana froze when she looked back up from the ground, the figure they had seen was now emerging from the woods. It was a man who looked nearly seven feet tall, he was nude and his exposed body was extremely muscular as well as covered in a layer of black fur. His face looked more beast than man and his expression was a feral grin showing off many pointed teeth. Ana knew what she was seeing, a werewolf in his half transformed state. She screamed out to her husband. "Michael get away from him!"
Michael furrowed his brow hearing his wife call after him. She should be inside where it's safe but of course she followed him out here, he thought. Michael had definitely not been expecting a werewolf when he saw someone lurking in the woods, he hadn't even seen one since before the girls were born. After he had summoned his most commanding voice the Earl said. "Halt werewolf! These lands are not yours! You have crossed over into Edenfal and if you don't go back to Hadrea immediately I am authorized to kill you."
The creature continued to walk closer and he let out a rumbling laugh. "Earl Michael Aldric, your words do not intimidate me. Especially when I know that you wield no silver." His voice was rough and deep almost sounding like an animalistic growl. 
Michael drew his sword and got into a defensive stance. Even if he didn't have a silver sword, he could kill the beast. All he would have to do is hack the head off before it could regenerate. "I will not warn you again, if you continue to approach me I will be forced to attack." His voice maintained a cool confidence. 
The werewolf's yellow eyes seemed to glow and his smile only grew wider which exposed even more jagged fangs. His gaze passed beyond the man and landed on the woman who must be the Earl's wife. She was beautiful, long fiery red hair which fell to her thighs in gentle waves, and eyes which were so green they almost appeared luminescent in the light of the moon. Deciding to prod the man the werewolf said. "Once I kill you I'm going to take your wife back to Hadrea with me. She will have many litters of my pups there."
Michael's demeanor cracked for a moment and a look of fury passed over his face. The thought of his wife being taken and raped by this beast was disgusting to him. The werewolf continued to grow closer so the man decided to charge forth. He rushed towards the beast and just as he got within range he swung out at his target's knee in an attempt to knock him to the ground. The sword  slashed against the thick muscled flesh of the werewolf's thigh causing him to stagger a bit but not fall. 
Blood dripped from Michael's sword but it seemed to evaporate almost moments later. When he looked to where he had slashed the beast, the gash was already knitting itself closed. The werewolf then rushed the Earl, hitting him full force in a tackle. 
Anastasia watched in horror when her husband was tackled to the ground. Willing her legs to move, she began running to where the beast had pinned Michael down. The werewolf wrapped a hand around the man's neck, squeezing so hard that he felt crunching inside. He said nothing, a chilling look passing over the bestial features of his face. 
Just before she made it to where they were Ana heard a loud crackling snap. The werewolf then stood up leaving Michael on the ground who lay there lifeless. She fell to her knees and lifted her husband into her lap but she could tell he wasn't there anymore. His eyes no longer held any life. A tear streamed down her face to fall on Michael's cheek. 
The werewolf then said to Ana in a nonchalant tone. "Don't cry over an idiot. Only a fool would charge at such a high ranking werewolf without a silver weapon."
Slowly Ana looked up at the beast and while she held his attention with her eyes she slipped her hand into her pocket to grip the hilt of her silver dagger. In a shaky voice she said. "I assume there was a reason you've done this. You knew his name and title, as well as the fact he doesn't own a silver weapon. Why?" She got to her feet with quivering legs so he could better look at her face. 
"My father commanded it. Your husband's death is instrumental in weakening the defense of the border." He responded in his deep gravely voice. 
Drawing closer she said in her best flirtatious tone although she couldn't keep her voice from wavering. "You must be very important in the Wolflands of Hadrea. Someone as strong as you could only be a descendant of werewolf royalty, correct?"
The wolf looked down into the woman's tear stained eyes, the green color seemed to swirl and grow brighter. He was entranced by the siren before him and spoke slowly. "Yes... my father is the chieftain of the strongest tribe in the southern Wolflands..."
Now inches from the lycan Ana drew the blade from her pocket. Too hypnotized by her eyes he didn't even notice when she raised her hand to plunge the dagger into him. As the cool metal was driven into his chest the werewolf was abruptly brought back to reality, rage painted his face and the burning sensation from the silver spread throughout his body. He swung with his massive clawed hand and caught Ana's throat. She grasped at the lacerations stumbling backwards, blood began to gush between her fingers and it painted the front of her dress red. The werewolf pulled the dagger from his chest and let out a pained yelp when his hand was burned by the metal. They stared at each other for what felt like an eternity, when finally the wolf fell. Only moments later Ana collapsed as well and both lay in heaps on the ground motionless.

Emilia Aldric finds herself in the land of beasts known as Hadrea after experiencing several heartbreaking tragedies. She struggles to master her powers which have only grown in intensity since her arrival in the lands of dark creatures. Can she trust those who have taken her in? And will she be able to forge a connection with one of the monsters that she has been taught to fear her entire life?

Puh Puh Puh…
'Fuck this bastards attacks are tearing me apart!' I said in my mind as another attack had crashed into me and left me puking. It had been barely ten minutes since it had started using its Mystic Method, and I have already reached my last leg.
I am hanging on just through my sheer will and the prospect of challenging myself to the limit, that Dark Vein Hyenaman had given me quite a challenge but not like this werewolf.
It is hell-bent on tearing me apart with those claws of its, launching one attack after attack, not giving me even a moment of relief; getting such injuries on my body, I just wanted to drink the healing medicine, but I did not.
I continued as I wanted to fight till I reached the real limit of my body, and also because of these severe injuries, I am having an easier time circulating the supreme combat exercise. I have already created the one Minor Seal.
Though the energy provided by the one Minor Seal is nothing but when I create ten and make the Amethyst seal out of them, it will give me a significant boost and strength thing is, i've heard that even Golden Elites practice the Supreme Combat Exercise.
So, there must be a profound reason why even the Golden Elites practiced the Supreme Combat Exercise when the power given by the Amethyst seal is nothing to them, which is why for the past few weeks, I've been giving extra attention to it, instead of practicing it on the sidelines.
"Your body is quite resilient, if other humans had been in your place, they would have been shredded within a minute of me using my Mystic Ability," I praised while attacking me furiously.
I did not care about the Grimm Monster praise, after praising me, it will say a few words about its grandness or eating me. I've heard that hundreds of times from the Grimm Monsters that I got quite bored with it.
"You must have gone through some lucky encounter to have such a resilient body; I once have eaten a human who had a quite abnormal body, it had given me quite benefits."
"I couldn't help wondering about the benefits I will get after eating you; your body seems ten times better than its." said and looked at me with a gaze that made me feel shudder from the core.
I've been looked at as food by many Grimm Monsters, and such a gaze has become quite reasonable for me, but when I looked at its gaze, I couldn't help but shudder and feel repulsed.
This werewolf would have eaten quite a number of humans to have such a hungry gaze, which made me want to kill it more. So I started to defend against its attack with even more fervor.
Ten minutes had already passed and maximum it will be able to us its Mystic Method for 20 more minutes; if I survive twenty-minute more then I will not have a problem dealing it with it, and if it were able to increase its power which is beyond my limit, I would just crush the healing medicine I have in my teeth and instantly heal all my injuries.
Life is more important than the silly plan of testing the limit, I will follow that until my life is relatively safe, once it crosses that boundary, I will just eat the healing medicine.
With that plan, I continued, and such ten more minutes had passed, and I could see fatigue appearing on its face due to the uses of Mystic Method, but it continued attacking me.
"Die Die Die, Bastard why don't you just die!" After being unable to kill me for twenty minutes and fatigue that is appearing on its face due to the using Mystic Method, it had become frustrated and gone into a frenzy.
Now it is just attacking me instinctively, though in a frenzy its attack has become powerful, it had become quite dumb, with little use of my brain I could dodge and mitigate most of the attacks that came at me.
To be honest, I love it when Grimm Monsters went to frenzy, they became total idiots, and a person like me who had high sensory abilities could make good use of frenzy and kill the Grimm Monsters at the lowest time.
Time passed and finally, ten more minutes had passed, and now it had become completly pale, but it is still using its Mystic Skill, I thought it would return to regular feeling exertion in its body as this is the time most of the Grimm Monsters got their sanity back, but this monsters had some opposite, it raged again and done something even more idiotic than using Mystic Method more than its limit.
It had started sucking up occult energy uncontrollably on top of continuing using the mystic method. Though this the recipe of self suicide but Grimm Monster did it in its frenzy and became of that its power had increased tremendously.
It was a good thing that it is frenzy when it wields such power, if it had been sane with this much power then I would have tucked my tail and ran away as with such force, it would have been easily able to kill me.
Still, I am in quite a bad condition right now, though it has become an idiot, it is a powerful idiot that has immense power and is hell-bent of killing me. I have survived a few powerful blows from the idiot, and my body has truly reached its limit; if I come across the attack that is more powerful than that, my body will collapse automatically.
I am trying my best to survive against its attacks, but it is hard, very hard. It has increased its power so much that surviving every second is a challenge itself, but I have no other option.
Time passed and I had reached the brink of collapse and would drink the potion in a minute whether the fight is over or not as one minute is all I can handle before my body started collapsing; I was just in that thought when a sudden change occurred in the Werewolf.
The sword that is coming at me stopped on its way, and the yellow energy that has been covering it also started to fade. While one yellow was going away, another yellow was coming.
The already pale body of the werewolf started to turn sickly yellow from grey and shine in its eyes is also fading fast, and that moment, I saw sanity returned to its eyes. It had the look of horror in its eyes when it realized what is happening to it.
It tried to stop is desperately, but it wasn't able to do anything to stop it, which made its eyes look even more desperate
The werewolf had struggled till the last moment of its life, but it was not able to stop its demise; eventually, all the shine in its eyes had left, and so was the life in its body.
For power, it had burned the potential of its body completely if it had been just overuse of mystic method, it would have been able to survive, but it had also used the Occult Method top of that which is famous for burning up the potential.
With it using the cocktail of two forbidden things, its fall is no surprise. The surprise is that it was able to last this long using that cocktail, a human with the same power level would not half a time as Werewolf under the effect of such deadly Cocktail.

After some rest and calm down his heart, Mikhail continued to enter deeper into the sewer. He met again with two big rats but this time he did not nervous like last time.

Mikhail quickly pulls shadow sword and waited until two big rats enter his attacking range.

10 Meter...

5 Meter...

2 METER!!!

Mikhail hastily changed shadow sword form to a spear that extended to one of the big rats but this time it dodged to the left side and jumped at Mikhail. While the other big rat jumped to his left side. 

Mikhail instantly changed shadow sword form into a spiked shield and the two big rats crashed hard onto the spiked shield and died instantly but the impact making Mikhail slammed backward to the wall. 

"Sh*t... Is it... the end? Am I going... to die... here???" Mikhail consciousness is fading away.

Mikhail's head collides quite hard with the wall making it bleeding profusely, that is why he lost his consciousness right now. 

*TING*
Grimoire detected master is unconscious.

Changed current command from Manual to Automatic. 

Detected: Master is currently injured.

Proceed SHADOW SWORD to Auto Restoration Form Immediately.

Restoration current progress: 01%

....

.....

...

A few hours later, Mikhail began to awake. Even though right now he is still a little groggy but his head does not feel hurt anymore. When Mikhail wanted to check his head injury, he began to aware that shadow sword form changed to a bandage and wrapped his head.

"Ehhh... What is this? Why shadow sword wrapped my head? My injury?" Mikhail feeling confused right now.

*TING*
SHADOW SWORD is in Auto Restoration Form.
Restoration current progress: 89%
The restoration process cannot be canceled or disturbed once it started.
While in Auto Restoration Form, SHADOW SWORD is cannot be used.

"Auto restoration form???" Mikhail is stunned and sighed it looks like there is some function in SHADOW SWORD that he still did not know about.

Mikhail then quickly turned serious if shadow sword could not be used right now then he will be vulnerable without any self-protection means. 

Mikhail quickly retreats back out from the sewer. Thankfully, he did not enter too far inside this time.

Mikhail dragged his exhausted body through street toward his house. The sky is already dark and some street lamp's light is flickering eerily. Even though the town looks abandoned but some house's electricity is still running and Mikhail's house is one of them. But when he is still walking in the middle of the street…

BOOM… BOOM… BOOM…

Mikhail saw a gigantic silhouette like a burly monkey walking at the far distance trampling anything on its path. 

Yes… It is gigantic no other word could describe it because its body size was even bigger than a mountain itself. It is like a Titan in mythology or movie coming to this earth.

Mikhail stunned and staring it in horror with his dropped jaw. How could such a creature exist? What exactly has happened to this world right now? Countless question flashing through his head but he cannot find the answer right now.

Until just a moment ago he still thinks that the giant werewolf that's 10 times bigger than bear size is a top of food chain, but comparing it to this gigantic silhouette those giant werewolf is just an ant in its eyes.

Thankfully the giant silhouette is just passing by and not even take a glance at Mikhail's town or it would be reduced to dust by only those giant silhouette footstep.

"What is going on right now in this world? If this world is not another world then that's mean that origin beast monster is the one invading here??" Mikhail began to analyze the situation again.

"Forget about it… For now, I should get stronger first. At the very least until I could slay that giant werewolf to avenge the people of my hometown. Then later I will begin my adventure to the capital city." Mikhail eyes turned serious and firmly make his decision.

After Mikhail arrived at his house, he started to check the television, radio, and his handphone once more. But the situation is the same as before there is no signal.  It is like some electromagnetic fog is blocking all the way of communication.

"Sigh… It looks like there is really no way to contact another person. The only way is to head toward the capital city and hopes there are still some people left that know the current situation." Mikhail sighed with disappointment. But then the idea struck him, why he didn't ask the grimoire? The grimoire is a mysterious item that surely not from this world so it should know one or two things about what happened.

Mikhail is breaking up with his girlfriend.

Out of heartbreak, he brought all games and food in the store and swore to not coming out of his room until he finished all the games.

After one year, he finished all the games but after he coming out what he found the world is already on its end.

"Ahahaha, you must be kidding with me right? This must be a dream!"

Unfortunately no Mikhail this is not.

Follow Mikhail on his journey with his grimoire!

Hunter bounded swiftly into the woods. He had been aching to shift since lunch time: he had felt the surge of animal energy coursing through his veins and the wolf's hunger had been clawing away at his insides. He needed to channel his urges into a hunt, otherwise, he would've gone crazy.
When he was far enough away from the fence, he chose a safe spot under a tree. The half moon was cradled in the tree's branches as he looked up: he deemed it a good sign. 
He let go of his human mind and began to shift. His spine lengthened and his muscles grew to accommodate the increase in his height. From his human frame of nearly 6 feet tall, he grew larger to an impressive 8 feet from his head to his new hind legs. His bones shifted all over his body and his muscles and tissues expanded to cover them, all the while his organs moved, resizing and reorganizing inside him. As the surface of his body increased, his leather costume was swallowed into the expanding mass of his new skin.
When a human shifts into the werewolf form, the old skin is swallowed by the new skin. Organic leather melds with the natural skin of the human body and forms the foundation for the new werewolf skin and fur. Any other material would be rejected in the transformation and be ripped apart like tissue paper. Hunter's leather getup was specifically designed to ensure that he would not go naked shifting in and out of his werewolf form.
Hunter's fur bloomed in light gray tufts across his transformed body, and as his tail grew out of the base of his spine, he fell to the ground on his newly formed paws. The increase in sense of smell and vision always overwhelmed him so he usually held his breath and kept his eyes closed while shifting forms.
When he felt the last of his bones and organs slide into place, he finally opened his eyes. From icy blue, they had changed into a deep amber color. It was a dark night out, but with his werewolf eyes he could see as clearly as though it were late afternoon. He took a deep breath and smelled the air.
He started and almost fell back on his haunches. There was a new smell in the woods. Something that had never been there before. He raised his muzzle in the air and took another whiff. He started again, jerking as though he'd been smacked on his snout.
There was a woman in the woods. She was still there and she wasn't far away.
The fact that there was a woman in the woods wasn't what surprised him though. People came out here every so often: students (usually male) on a dare wanting to prove they were brave and forest rangers (mostly male) who did their rounds in the woods every month or so.
This woman was different. Special. She had a scent like nothing he had ever smelled before in his young life. It was probably a scent that his father or even his grandfather had never smelled in their lives.
It was the scent of a female werewolf.
 
Werewolves in general were a rare species, rarer even than vampires and witches.  Outside of his own family, Hunter had never met another werewolf, and even then all the ones he knew were male.
He couldn't believe his luck! He wagged his tail like a happy dog. He wanted to howl at the moon and proclaim his ecstasy. But he didn't. He would reserve his rejoicing for when he finally met this new werewolf.
He bounded off into the night, racing toward the source of the enticing scent.

In Ash's dream, the deer had disappeared. She was now eating the largest chicken leg she had ever seen in her life. Dreams were weird like that, they give you the things you crave when you're awake and blow it up to cartoon-level proportions. Her teeth were so strong that she cracked right through the bones and chewed them up. When one chicken leg disappeared, she reached for another one and proceeded to feast on it as well.
She was enjoying her meal when a large dog suddenly came up behind her. She turned around to greet it.
[Oooh, doggy! Maybe doggy is hungry too!] Ash thought. 
With the giant chicken leg still in her mouth, she reached out to pet the large dog. But it wasn't her hand that reached out to pet him: it was a large bear-paw sized hand covered in thick dark gray fur. The fur was similar to the large dog's, only darker in color.
[Huh? What's going on?]
The theme of Ash's dream quickly changed from a happy feast to a strange twisted nightmare. The chicken leg in her mouth was no longer a chicken leg, but some kind of large animal leg. The large dog was now a very large wolf with light gray fur and amber eyes. And she was a fur covered creature. 

She dropped the animal leg. She felt the broken bones in her mouth and tasted blood and flesh on her tongue. She swallowed, hard.
She felt a scream welling up inside of her. The large gray wolf was still staring at her. In a panic, she backed away from it, and as she did so she stepped on something wet. She turned to look at what she had stepped in and saw blood and entrails spilling out of a gory animal carcass. The animal's ribs had been broken, practically ripped open. 

And then she saw its head. The head was untouched and still connected to the animal's body. It's partly open mouth still had traces of a fragrant bluish liquid, but its eyes were dead as dead could be. It was the deer from before, the one eating berries from earlier in her dream. The deer was dead.
Ash screamed in horror, but what came out of her mouth was an animal whimper: it was the whimper of a large, frightened dog.
Ash turned to run away from the bloody scene; she was in a nightmare, a bloody unreal nightmare! But even as she ran, she felt her feet buckle beneath her and she crashed on her side in the grass. She fell with a loud thudding sound, and then her mind went silent.  
 
****
 
Hunter came upon the new werewolf just as she had hunted down a young deer. He walked carefully behind her as she tore at the deer's ribs and ate its heart. He made a mental note of that: he liked to eat hearts too.
She hadn't seen him yet because her back was turned, but he was surprised that she hadn't smelled him yet. A normal animal would have turned around by then, alert to the presence of an intruder. But this one just kept eating.
[Fascinating,] he thought.
He stepped closer to her. She finally turned around and saw him. She still had the deer's leg in her mouth, but she had a friendly expression in her eyes. It almost looked like she was delighted to see him.
Hunter wagged his tail. He was so happy that she liked him! He bounded forward, eager to introduce himself. She reached out an arm to touch him, but then she froze. The expression in her eyes changed from joy into a palpable fear. Something was wrong!
She chewed at the remnants of the deer's leg in her mouth, and then she started thrashing about. She looked at the deer and let out a loud whimper, and then she ran away.

[Wow. That was not at all how I thought that would go,] Hunter thought.
He looked around, wondering what had scared her. He could still smell her: she was just a few meters away and she wasn't moving. He decided to look around and try to figure out what had spooked her.
[I'm the man in this situation. I should take care of her,] he thought. 
He put his nose in the air and sniffed. Now that he had located the female werewolf, he concentrated on taking in the other scents in the woods. It was possible that he had scared her and that was why she ran away, but it hurt his pride to think it, so he forced his mind to consider another possibility: maybe something else had frightened her away.
His nose caught the scent of something a few meters away from where the dead deer was. He trotted off in the direction of a faintly familiar scent. His nose led him to the base of a tree. He had caught this scent in passing as he pursued the scent of the other werewolf, but he had dismissed it then as unimportant.
Torn clothes lay scattered about at the roots of the tree. He pawed at it and saw that it was an SBA uniform: white-long sleeved blouse and a dark gray pleated skirt with red trim at the bottom. The blouse's sleeves were in shreds and the back of it was nearly torn in half. The skirt had ripped almost halfway down on two sides.
In the mess were also some scattered underthings. There was a bra with a broken back clasp, elastic straps ripped off at the seams and a pair of white underwear, seemingly ripped in half. A pair of shredded knee socks completed the wrecked ensemble.
The uniform could have belonged to anybody at SBA, but Hunter knew this person. He knew her scent.
She was the reason he had gone out to hunt that night in the first place.
The tattered uniform belonged to Ash Parker.

Ash Parker is a rare scholar at elite Saint Blaise's Academy. Like her nickname, "Boots," she is tough and stubborn, and used to dealing with her problems in her own way.
Unknown to everyone else at the Academy, she is also a werewolf.

An orphaned ward of the state, her status made her an outcast among her affluent peers. Now she also has to keep a terrible secret about being a shapeshifting "monster."

Hunter Guzman is a handsome boy who's popular at the Academy. As the sole heir of a rich and powerful clan, he's got everything going for him: handsome, athletic, charismatic, and popular.
He's also secretly a werewolf, descended from a strong, noble line of Lycidae. 

Female werewolves are extremely rare in the modern world and Hunter thinks that he and Ash are the One True Pairing that will save the lycans from extinction.

Ash, on the other hand, doesn't want to "fall in love" just to save the species. 

She just wants what every other girl (werewolf or otherwise) wants : to have a nice normal life and fall in love for real. That shouldn't be too hard, right?

If only she didn't have to fight against evil after school. Ugh, so annoying!

Tony pulled out the antidote and walked over towards Don, but was stopped by Hina. Standing up, she reached out and took the bottle from Tony while giving him an order to keep an eye out for the beasts that may be lurking near by.

"I will apply the antidote, you should keep an eye out for those vile creatures. They do like lurking in the dark after all."

Tony nodded his head before grabbing his shield as he sat down near them. Grabbing a cloth out of his backpack, he proceeded to clean the shield of the blood of the Cave Spiders from the previous battle. Taking quick glances around to ensure their safety, Tony failed to see the mass of Cave Spiders that were waiting right in front of him. 

Don looked towards the tunnel entrance in front of him as Hina poured the green liquid on his wound. The liquid was absorbed by the wound before releasing a dark residue, which Hina believed to be the poison of the Cave Spiders. Judging by the pitch black color, the poison was probably very strong. Shockingly, Don was not in pain during this whole process, he just sat there as he pondered his next move.

While Hina helped Don with the antidote, Tony heard a noise of screeching coming from the direction they had just came from. Looking up, he gulped a mouthful of saliva before speaking as his voice trembled. 

"Boss... I think you should run.. right now."

Don looked back as if to question why Tony would say such a thing, but to his horror he saw the pathway behind them filled with Cave Spiders. "What about you?" Don asked Tony while already knowing the answer. 

"I have always been ready to die for you, be it today or in the future. I will do my best to hold them off while you and madame make a run for it. I hope to buy you at least a minute. Please forgive me for not making it through this expedition together with you both," saying this much, Tony got up and positioned himself to defend at all costs.

"Thank you for serving us both with your utmost loyalty," Don knew how stubborn Tony was and decided it would be better to accept his sacrifice so that both himself and Hina could survive. He nodded one last time towards Tony before grabbing Hina by her hand and started running.

"Thank you Tony!" Hina's cry could be heard by Tony as he looked back and saw the two make a run for it. He wasn't upset in the least bit. In all his years, he had never heard the madame cry like now. He knew he had a place in both of their hearts and to die for them was worth it. He would not live to be an immortal, but he had lived a fulfilling life. 

Grabbing the small sword tightly, he banged it against the shield while charging forward.

"Come on you bastards!" He gave his shield a big thrust as soon as he made contact with the first batch of spiders. The banging noise from earlier had caused his blood to boil as he prepared to fight with his life on the line. As a member of a gang, he had seen his fair share of blood and violence, even coming to many close calls himself. In contrast, the Cave Spiders found the noise horrendous. It momentarily stunned them, which was enough to cause a great deal of damage when the shield landed. 

"BANG!"

The Cave Spiders flew towards the wall like a kite with it's string broken off. The impact caused the surroundings to shake, some of the loose rocks on the ceiling dropped down. Tony dodged the falling rocks as he continued to push with his shield and slash down with the sword. He had lost track of how many Cave Spiders he had killed and how many bites as well as scratches he had gained in return. His mind was focused on one thing and one thing only! Attract as much attention of the Cave Spiders as possible so that his boss and madame may run away to safety. 
 
The falling rocks had crushed multiple Cave Spiders, but even then there was an endless wave of spiders coming. It was obvious that they had came back for vengeance. With the help of the falling rocks, Tony didn't have to worry much about the Cave Spiders rushing past him as the tunnel entrance behind him had been reduced to half the size. The Cave Spiders would need to kill him to progress onward. 

A falling rock landed on Tony's head, causing him to fall down to his knees. Almost losing conscious instantly, Tony used his will power to catch himself from being flattened down. Standing back up, he looked at the enemies in front of him. Blood running from his forehead down to his chin, along with the multiple wounds all over his body, he looked like a demon. His eyes became bloodshot as he started to lose his sanity from the poison. Screaming loudly, he rushed forward once more towards his death.

While Tony bravely fought to his last breath, Don and Hina ran as fast as they possibly could. Even while being a toughened gang leader and someone of just as equal power, they both could not hold back the tears in their eyes. Especially so with Hina, Tony had treated her like a sister. In that aspect, Tony was the only other family member Hina felt that she had and now his life and death were uncertain. This brought up old emotions that she had thrown away in the past. 

"Don't worry, I heard that the crystals Senior Brother wanted us to get are not that great. But if they are shit, then why would he invest so much on us to retrieve them? I believe we can use the crystals to help Tony heal. Let's just hope he can survive long enough for us to get the crystals and come back," Don spoke in a low voice as he ran alongside Hina. Unlike Hina, he wasn't crying but the pained look on his face was obvious. Even he missed the giant that was both his bodyguard and a longtime friend. 

Looking down at the map, he grabbed Hina's hand a little tightly before rushing forward in accordance to the directions listed on the map.

Jacq was doing his best to stay above water. The current was fast, it was a downgrade and Jacq was being pushed back underwater. Each time he resurfaced, he would cough up a mouthful of water before inhaling deeply as he knew he would be going underwater again until this ride was over. Nero didn't speak. It wasn't that he couldn't, but instead there was nothing for him to say. Adding to the current situation, Jacq might just flip out if he spoke right now. 

After a few minutes of almost dying, Jacq heard the sound that he dreaded the most right now. If not for this sound, he would most likely be sleeping in a warm spot and not freezing to death like he was right now.

"AWOOOO"

The werewolf was swimming behind him and the distance that was originally the length of a football field was being shortened steadily.

"He can swim... This guy can fucking swim," to Jacq's dismay, the werewolf wasn't being affected by the current as much as himself. 

"Yeah... Remember, he did start his cultivation already, so he has more intelligence than a normal werewolf. Also, I don't think you know this, but a normal werewolf is almost as smart as you humans," Nero responded.

"... Next you'll tell me that he can sing and dance too," Jacq felt a great headache, he wasn't sure if it was because of the news or from the coldness of the water. As he gained a hold of himself, he started to swim faster, by now the werewolf had covered a quarter of the distance.

"Actually, believe it or not, but during mating season werewolves gather around in their breeding grounds and hold a festival. The females tend to go for the males who can dance and sing as well as they fight."

Listening to Nero's lecture, Jacq almost vomited blood. A werewolf that can sing and dance! That is insane! But then remembering that werewolves could cultivate, it made sense for a cultivating werewolf to be able to sing and dance. This thought made Jacq calm down until Nero spoke up again.

"By the way, I meant that normal werewolves could sing and dance. I read the books on Earth and it seems to me that you humans do lack a lot of knowledge outside of your planetary system."

Jacq almost fainted from hearing this. He quickly slapped his face before disregarding this information as he continued to swim forward. Twice now he had almost drowned after hearing Nero. He decided it was best to ignore all of the information Nero gave him regarding werewolves until after this crisis was averted, if it could be that is.

"The waterfall up ahead will give you a chance to go back on land so pay attention. Right as soon as the waterfall ends, swim to your right," Nero recommended to Jacq.

"But wouldn't that just make it easier for him to catch me?" Jacq responded in confusion. The whole point of running was to escape the werewolf's carnivorous teeth. Running on land would just give the werewolf an upper hand.

"Ah, you are forgetting something. The dragon of this cave is in that direction. Hopefully he can scare off this wet dog," Nero spoke with certainty.

Jacq nodded and braced himself as the waterfall was right in front of him. This was the second waterfall that he had ever entered in his entire lifetime, and hopefully it would be the last waterfall he would ever have to encounter he prayed. Soon, Jacq could hear the growls of the werewolf right behind him! He looked back and saw a giant paw slashing towards him. Jacq failed to realize that the werewolf had covered so much distance already. Closing his eyes, Jacq braced himself for his death, but then the water under him vanished.

Opening his eyes, he saw the werewolf waving it's limbs about as the werewolf had not expected another waterfall at this time. Jacq quickly adjusted himself towards the right and soon he hit the water at the end of the waterfall. Swimming under the water towards the right, he swam like his life depended on it, because it actually did. Soon he felt land under his feet and quickly he got a hold of his footing and ran straight ahead. Behind him, Jacq could here the werewolf howl in rage.

"AWOOO!"

At the same time, a booming voice was heard.

"WHY IS THERE A DOG ON MY LAND!!!"

Hearing this voice, even the werewolf started whimpering. Following the ear shattering voice, the ground shook as if some behemoth was walking towards them. Jacq gulped as he looked around for a hiding spot. Seeing a big rock on the side, Jacq quickly ran behind it. He could feel his heart in his mouth.

"AFTER I DEAL WITH THE DOG, I WILL DEAL WITH YOU. DON'T THINK I DIDN'T SEE YOU THERE LITTLE RUNT!"

Jacq, "...Well fuck. Now what Nero?"

Slowly awakening his true self, watch as our hero fights foes and encounter fortune as well as dangers.
