The sun gradually set in the west. The golden sunlight penetrated the layers of leaves and shone on the wolf king lying under the tree. The wolf king had been lying there motionless for a few hours. If not for the slight rise and fall of its abdomen and the slight movement of its nose, it would have looked like a stone statue.
Daley and Michael were taking turns to rest in the cave, but because they were worried that the Wolf King would attack at any time, the two of them did not dare to sleep.
Night finally fell, and the temperature in the cave began to drop. Daley lit a fire and used the knife he carried with him to cut off a few pieces of bear meat. He sprinkled some seasoning on it and began to roast it over the fire.
After a while, the fragrance filled the entire cave and spread out from the air vent.
The two of them slowly finished the roasted bear meat and looked at the crackling fire as they sat quietly.
The wolf king quietly moved to the entrance of the cave under the cover of the night and used its claws to push against the big rock blocking the entrance.
He couldn't move it. The stone was very heavy. The human inside had obviously considered the possibility of a sudden attack, so he used such a large stone. After all, he was a wolf, not a bear. No matter how strong he was, he wouldn't have the strength to push such a huge stone away.
He had to think of a way.
The wolf king, who was quietly retreating, accidentally stepped on a branch. With a snap, the branch broke into two and stabbed the wolf king.
The wolf king snorted in dissatisfaction. Its claws lit up with golden light, and the withered branches turned into powder. They were blown by the night wind and dissipated in the air.
Right, he could use this magical power.
The Wolf King hurriedly ran to a stone, placed its claws on it, and injected magical power into the stone.
Sure enough, the stone turned into powder.
However, the power consumed was clearly much greater than the power used to destroy the withered branch just now.
The wolf king looked at the big rock blocking the entrance of the cave. It tilted its neck and thought for a moment before putting its claws on it.
As the claws lit up with golden light, the surface of the stone silently shattered into pieces.
Looking at the thinner rock, the Wolf King nodded in satisfaction and continued to put its claws on it.
When the stone was about a meter away, the wolf king moved its claws away, shook its fur and sweat off its body, and turned to walk into the forest.
About three hours later, the wolf king, who was obviously full, came back. It quietly lay at the entrance of the cave, waiting for the magical power to slowly recover.
Listening to Michael's even breathing, Daley added a piece of firewood to the fire and silently looked at the entrance of the cave.
A wolf definitely wouldn't be able to move these two huge rocks, but both of them had a feeling that the wolf king would definitely have a way to get in.
Suddenly, Daley saw the stone blocking the entrance of the cave glow with a golden light. Then, a claw reached out from the stone.
"Michael!"
Daley jumped up, picked up a piece of burning wood from the fire, and threw it at the claw.
With a whoosh, the large rock blocking the left side of the cave entrance shattered into pieces. A gray shadow flashed in through the dust. It twisted its body and dodged the burning wood. With a click, it stood in front of Daley.
After a long confrontation, Daley finally saw the wolf king.
The Wolf King wasn't much bigger than the average wolf. Because he had used too much spirit power, his whole body was wet, as if he had just been fished out of the river, his eyes flashing with a sharp green light.
Before Daley could react, the Wolf King pounced forward and swiped at him with its claws.
Daley dodged the claw and slashed down with his sword.
The Wolf King seemed to not know that Daley's sword could not threaten it. It charged forward, dodged the sword, and rushed to the injured Michael's side, opening its mouth to bite.
The bone in Michael's hand lit up with golden light as he stabbed forward.
The wolf king seemed to know that the bone was dangerous. It paused and the bone stabbed into nothing. Then, before Michael could retract his hand, the Wolf King turned around and bit him.
Michael hurriedly waved his other hand and stabbed another bone at the alpha's head.
The Wolf King saw another bone coming at him and didn't want both of them to be injured, so he could only retreat and dodge the attack. As for Michael, he had used too much force and was hurting his wound, so he couldn't help but let out a snort.
The retreating Wolf King dodged Daley's sword and swung its tail with a golden light. In order to avoid the tail, Daley had no choice but to jump. Before he landed on the ground, the Wolf King had already turned around with the force of the sweep and jumped up to bite his throat.
Seeing that he couldn't dodge this bite, Daley had no choice but to place his sword in front of his throat, hoping to slow down the Wolf King's attack.
Seeing a sword in front of the enemy's throat, the Wolf King tilted its head and bit at Daley's hand.
Just as he was about to bite off Daley's hand, the Wolf King suddenly saw Michael throw the bone in his hand at his head.
Sensing the danger, the wolf king curled up and rolled to the side. The bone grazed its scalp and pierced into the cave wall with a trail of blood.
"What a pity. If Michael was an Assassin, the Wolf King would have died.”
Daley secretly felt sorry.
The Wolf King, who was suddenly injured, composed himself and jumped to the entrance of the cave. He narrowed his eyes and stared at the two of them.
In just a short while, Daley and Wolf King were on the brink of death.
The two men and one wolf were in a stalemate in the cave, and they entered a strange state of calm.
But not long after, the Wolf King charged at Michael again.
Daley turned around and appeared behind the Wolf King. While the Wolf King was dodging Michael's attack, Daley slashed his sword horizontally. At the same time, Michael threw two bones in front of the Wolf King and quickly took out two ribs from his pocket.
The Wolf King saw the flashing golden light in front of him and knew that he absolutely could not charge forward. However, it was already impossible for him to retreat. If he stopped in place, he would be slashed.
Feeling that there was no way out, the Wolf King roared and stopped where he was. His body flashed with golden light as he tried his best to turn his body, hoping that his vital parts would not be hit.
Seeing that the Wolf King didn't charge forward but took the sword head-on, Daley's heart sank.
With a loud thud, Daley's sword cut into the Wolf King's body and broke into two. Daley used the rebound force of this attack to quickly retreat and dodge to the side.
The Wolf King, who had thought that he was dead for sure, was also stunned when he saw that the enemy's sword had been broken.
It turned out that this person was not a threat to him. It turned out that only things that shone with golden light could hurt him.
After understanding this, the Wolf King immediately calmed down. He ignored Daley and madly attacked Michael.
When the Wolf King charged past Michael once again, Michael's body had a few more wounds.
Two more attacks and this big human would be finished.
The proud Wolf King turned around, ignoring Daley who was harassing him. He circulated his soul power and prepared for the next attack.
However, the Wolf King, who was about to pounce, suddenly felt a wave of fatigue, and his vision blurred.
Oh no, in order to break that big rock, he had used too much strength today. If he continued to hit it, his body would not be able to withstand it.
Realizing this, the Wolf King stopped attacking. He jumped back to the cave entrance and stared at the two for a while.
He could ignore this human using a sword. Tomorrow, he would eat and drink to his heart's content and recover his spirit. The injured big guy would also be fine.
Let them live one more day.
With this thought in mind, the Wolf King turned around and ran into the dark night.
Daley and Michael, who thought they were dead, looked at each other.
"What happened? It actually left?"
Michael could hardly believe what he was seeing.
"I don't know."
Daley was also baffled.
The two of them looked at the cave entrance nervously, afraid that the wolf king would pounce again from the darkness.
Time passed by silently, and the light from the bonfire grew dimmer and dimmer. With a bang, the wood in the bonfire suddenly burst into sparks. Then, the last flame swayed and went out.
At this moment, the sky gradually brightened.
Daley and Michael saw that there was no trace of the Wolf King anywhere they could see. They both heaved a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground.
The night finally passed.
