The Familia Head was Reborn as a Wolf in Another World

Chapter 64

Whilst hiding in the shadow of a tree, I observed the behavior of the wolves. There really are no benefits in antagonizing that Lightning Wolf. That means that killing these guys is now out of the window. Truth to be told, it was a very tricky situation. After all, if I made a mistake of killing even just one of these wolves, then I would be an instant enemy of that Lightning Wolf. And well, I also couldn't come out and reveal myself since there was no telling what these monsters' reactions would be.

I cannot afford to have this alpha out for my blood. Especially not when I have a bigger fish to fry.

After making sure that wolves hadn't noticed my presence, I began moving on the shadows of the trees and behind some tall grass. As I thought. This skill really does shine in these kinds of areas. In the midst of doing that, I also noticed that the Lightning Wolf had now entered the lair. Unfortunately, you will find nothing in there. I murmured inside.

As I was waiting for a wolf to pass, I couldn't help but wonder. But seriously, where did that ape go? From what I could tell, it was pretty obvious that these wolves weren't just looking for me. Especially since these were the very same monsters that had chased us from that time. Is that guy searching for food or something? Considering that ape's speed and abilities, then I have no doubt that he would be able hunt for food without getting noticed. The problem was...

It will be really bad if that guy recovers and makes some move against an alpha. Like, seriously, that guy is nothing but a walking time bomb in this place.

In the grand scheme of things, there was no doubt that the Gigarillon was still a lot stronger compared to the alphas that were ruling this area. But because of that very same power difference, the scale of the trouble that it might cause was also bigger than normal. And while it was true that it was possible to use such disturbance to my advantage, it would still be a headache if that caused a temporary ceasefire and unification between the alpha-class monsters. After all, if my memories were right, those alpha-class monsters put the survival of the species above anything else. In short, if a major threat appeared within this forest, then those three might actually decide to work together.

I need to prevent that from ever happening. While keeping that in mind, I once again checked the position of the Lightning Wolf. Wait, huh? Unfortunately, that was when I finally noticed.

He's gone?! To be precise, it was more so that I couldn't sense its presence, instead of actually vanishing into thin air. This is bad!

Noticing that something was wrong, I stopped and hid behind the cover of darkness and then focused all my senses on my immediate surroundings. And as the radius of my skill decreased, I also began to get a better grasp of pretty much everything around me. Not long after that, I finally found the location of the Lightning Wolf.

But as if he was also waiting for that moment, the Lightning Wolf's presence rushed towards me. Wha— Because of that, I decided to abandon Stealth, and just run away. Damn it! He's already too close!

Knowing that the wolf was heading towards my location, I activated Accelerate and ran away from there. How?! Though, of course, that action also alerted the nearby wolves, so they also began chasing after me. The only stroke of fortune was that the wolves weren't able to keep up with my speed, so I didn't have to worry about them that much.

Does that wolf also have the Sixth Sense skill?! Based on the behavior that the Lightning Wolf had shown, it was pretty clear that the monster found me at the same exact time that I also found him. But if that was really the case, then that was one hell of a trap!

At that very same instant, I felt the oppressive gaze of the Lightning Wolf, zooming in from behind. "Guh!" Because of that, I lost some control over skill, which resulted in Accelerate shutting down. Crap!

For a moment, I was stunned. But luckily, that triggered something with me, and it produced a calming effect on my mind. Is that some type of mental attack? I wondered while reactivating Accelerate. Unfortunately, that was when the alarm bells started ringing on my mind.

Following my instinct, I jump away to the side. And when I did just that, a lightning bolt passed by, and it followed by the sound of a raging thunder. "Guh!" Grazed by whatever it was, I felt a jolt of pain running through my body.

Damn it! What was that? As I landed on the ground, I gazed at the burned down trajectory of the lightning bolt. And in there, I found the Lightning Wolf looking at me, with some traces of sparks still coming off of his body. You've gotta be freaking kidding me.
