Chapter 14: Sharp Claws from Wolf Leader
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Harlen’s inexplicable words stunned the werewolves.
“Box… Boxer shorts?”
The werewolves looked at their legs, then up at Harlen.
Only the werewolf leader said in its deep beastly voice,
“These are slacks.”
“They’re not boxer shorts.”
When Harlen heard that, he burst out laughing.
“Little wolves.”
“The boxers I’m talking about aren’t the pants you’re wearing.”
“It means you’re too weak.”
…
Bang!
“What did you say!”
Hearing Harlen’s words, the werewolf leader smashed the empty wine barrel decoration on the wall with his palm.
The wooden fragments of the wine barrel fell to the ground.
“You~Damn~Brat!”
“You’re dead.”
“I’m going to cut off your hands.”
“I want you to feel the blood flowing out of your body.”
“I’ll wait until you are fully drained and become a dried corpse.”
“Then my compatriots and I will slowly savor you.”
“Feel despair, you little brat.”
With that said, the werewolf leader stabbed towards Harlen, who was standing on the ceiling, with lightning speed.
The first floor of the house was almost five meters high, but for the werewolves who were almost 2.5m tall and built with stocky legs, this height was nothing.
Their instantaneous burst of power was enough to instantly cover this distance.
The werewolf leader jumped, and in an instant, he was standing shoulder to shoulder with Harlen, who was standing on the ceiling.
The entire process took less than a second. It seemed like only 0.5 seconds.
If it was an ordinary person, they wouldn’t even know how they died in this half second.
But Harlen was different.
During this half second, Harlen took his time to speak to the werewolf leader.
“Eat me?”
“I’m so scared.”
“Help! Is there anyone?”
“Help me… (yawn).”
At the end of the last sentence Harlen even yawned a little.
These words were said during the half second when the werewolf leader had jumped up from the ground in front of him.
If it was an ordinary person, they would only have the fate of waiting to be beheaded.
However, Harlen did not seem afraid at all of the werewolf leader, who had jumped in front of him. He did not even move.
Instead, he even teased him a little with his words, causing the wolf leader’s blood pressure to spike.
“You bastard!!!”
Then…
The werewolf leader raised its sharp, cold claws at a rapid speed.
He swiped in the shape of a cross towards Harlen, who was standing upside down on the ceiling.
“Shua!!!”
Bang!
Two sharp, cold claws intersected in front of the werewolf leader.
Perhaps it was because the two sharp and cold claws were too close.
Due to its extreme speed, the two sharp claws collided.
Sparks flew.
And when the light from the sparks disappeared….
The werewolf leader, who was suspended in mid-air, gradually lost the force brought about by the bounce and landed heavily on the ground.
Bang!
When they descended to the ground, due to his own weight and gravity acceleration, a deep pit was stomped into the ground.
The leader stood up after landing on the ground. He looked at his sharp claws, then raised his head to look at the place where he had attacked.
His claw attack had pierced through the ceiling, punching a large hole through the ceiling where Harlen had been standing.
The second floor above the hole seemed to be a storage room.
All of a sudden, the goods in the warehouse fell from the second floor through the hole.
Then, “Peng, peng, peng, peng!!!”, it fiercely smashed onto the ground and shattered into pieces.
Instantly, the ground was covered in dust, which spread to the entire first floor.
The goods in the warehouse on the second floor fell for about ten seconds until all the goods at the edge of the hole fell off.
The first floor’s floor also echoed with the second floor’s goods, making the sound of crashing and knocking last for several dozen seconds more even after the goods had stopped falling.
A whole layer of dust rose, even showing signs of spreading to the second floor.
There was not a single window on the walls of the bar on the first floor. Furthermore, lighting depended on two candle-shaped chandeliers hanging from the ceiling and a skylight about the size of a piece of A4 paper that was five meters above.
As a result, the dust in the hall could not be expelled in a short time. All the dust was left floating freely within the bar.
The inside of the restaurant was gray with dust, to the point that one could not see their fingers even if they raised them in front of themselves.
Everything around them was hidden in the dust.
“Hahahahaha!!!”
“This is too perfect.”
“This gray and blurry environment suits me the best.
“Time for the hunt.”
“Hahahahaha!!!”
The werewolf leader stood amidst the dust.
He raised his sharp claws to lightly scratch his back.
He said happily as if he had achieved a small target.
“No one can escape my hunt in such an environment.”
“Not in the past!”
“Not in the future!”
“Little guy, wash your neck and wait for me.”
The desire to kill and kill surged out of his body like a tidal wave.
“Talking about hunting.”
“Can you see this gray area clearly?”
“Do you know where I am?”
“I’m afraid you don’t even know where you are.”
Harlen’s words echoed through the dust.
“You probably don’t know about this, but we werewolves can find prey in other ways, even if we can’t see.”
“Like… bang!”
The werewolf leader spoke as he walked toward the place where Harlen had made the noise.
Then, he raised his sharp and cold claw and swiped down.
“For example, you can use sound to locate your prey.”
Bang!
The werewolf leader, who had just swiped down with his paw, suddenly straightened his body and turned to walk in another direction.
After walking for a distance, he raised his sharp and cold claw and swung it in front of him.
Bang!
“Man, I think I hit a wine barrel.”
“What a pity.”
The werewolf leader raised his sharp claws, tilted his head, and stared in a certain direction with his red eyes.
“There’s another way.”
“It’s to lock onto the direction through the scent of the prey.”
The werewolf leader became more and more excited as he spoke.
“How is it?”
“Isn’t that impressive?”
“This is a unique ability that only we werewolves possess.”
“Despair.”
“Run.”
“Cry.”
“That way we don’t get bored.”
“This way, the Hunt will be more interesting.”
The werewolf leader raised his hands and proudly spoke.
The air was silent for a few seconds after the werewolf leader finished speaking.
Then Harlen’s voice sounded once again.
“You wolves have a wicked sense of humor.”
“Toying with the young minds of your prey.”
The werewolf leader walked in the direction he had been staring at and said, “The weak have no choice.”
