My Werewolf System

Chapter 182: The Pawn Werewolf



Chapter 182: The Pawn Werewolf

Blood continued to drip, creating a small pool from where Billy stood. The wounds on his body were still healing, though slower than initially, especially the area around his neck that Gary had bitten.

The Omega wolf was trapped in between Gary and Blake, both standing still like statues. The two understood that depending on whoever took the first step now, would become Billy’s next target.

[43/100 HP]

[150/300 Energy]

‘Has it been that long already? No… I must have used up more Energy than I realised. Controlled Transformation, Emergency Healing along with the Claw Drains… Yeah, I guess I need to include the natural Energy expenditure while fighting as well. Which means I can’t waste any more time!’ Gary came to the conclusion that it would have to be now or never.

Knowing this Gary made the first move. Seeing him break their Mexican stand-off, confirming their assumptions, Billy headed towards Gary. The large Werewolf ran on all four like a wild beast. Gary wasn’t sure if he was imagining things or not, but even though his opponent was heavily injured, it appeared as if he was still faster.

While Billy charged in recklessly like a bull, Gary leapt onto the side of the wall. He made sure to extend his nails, so they would pierce into the side holding him in place, before he quickly pounced right into Billy.

His action was similar to what he had done with the twins.

Gary’s tackle was strong, and he pushed the other Werewolf against the wall. Billy was startled, and quickly, not wasting time, Gary placed his hand on the back of Billy’s head and slammed it into the wall. Blood gushed out of Billy’s mouth and from the side of his head.

A Werewolf’s skull proved to be quite durable, far more than that of a human or a wolf who would have been crushed under Gary’s current Strength. The brown Werewolf also noticed that his fingers felt like they were going through some type of leather armour. They would only go so far through the skin until it stopped, and the bones were so strong even with his claws, it seemed impossible to break them.

In the first place, Werewolves could claw at their enemies, creating big cuts. However, if he was to punch them with an open hand, the muscles in their fingers didn’t seem strong enough to pierce a skull, so at times, resorting to punching and grabbing was more effective than a swipe.

Now, holding his head in place, Gary was hoping he would be able to pierce Billy’s skull and end it once and for all. He threw his fist, with his fingers extending outward, not caring whether he broke them or not.

Desperate to get out of the situation, it looked like Billy was trying to push off against the wall, but before he could, Blake had rolled in between the two Werewolves. They were large creatures, so there was plenty of space. Getting in, he then threw small daggers right into the back of Billy’s hands.

They pierced right through, indicating that these small blades were sharper than the big blade that Blake had used earlier, though it still wasn’t enough to kill Billy. Next, with his only intact blade left, Blake started to slash at the back of Billy’s legs, trying his best to render him immobile.

Billy had displayed great speed and strength, yet in the Altered Hunter’s mind that speed was far more dangerous and needed to be dealt with first. Because of his cooperation, Gary’s fingers slammed into the back of Billy’s skull. It had initially gone through the hide piercing it, but then he felt his fingers start to bend… and then he got a notification he had been worried about.

[You have been inflicted with a grave injury]

‘I still have another hand!’

Taking his other hand off while leaving his broken hand to hold Billy’s head. Gary made a fist this time, punching the back of Billy’s head. The resulting sound was similar to a stone being dropped onto another stone.

Billy was dazed, and his vision was blurring, but Gary didn’t stop there, as he pulled back again, and punched Billy at the back of the head again… and again. Similarly, with his only intact blade left, Blake started to slash at the back of Billy’s legs, trying his best to register him imbolie.

The one thing the werewolf seemed to have was great speed with strength. In Blak’s mind the speed was more dangerous and needed to be dealt with first.

With each subsequent hit landing on Billy’s head, his body was shrinking. It was getting smaller by the second, and the wounds were now becoming clearer. At the same time, Gary heard a message. Because of this, he cancelled his Full Transformation, conserving his Energy.

The high schooler’s body started to shrink down as well, but Gary quickly made sure that his Controlled Transformation was active on his hands and legs, just in case there were any surprises.

He had let go of Billy, allowing his body to fall to the floor. Blood was covering his whole head. It was hard to recognise him, and it was covering his eye as well, the other had a gaping hole from the sword.

It looked like Blake was also down on his knees, taking in deep breaths of air.

‘He must be exhausted… I shouldn’t be surprised! He isn’t an Altered, nor a Werewolf like us. He’s just human, and he managed to do all of this?’ Gary’s respect for the Altered Hunter grew at that moment.

Then, for a split second, he could see his father’s image above his friend’s. Blake wasn’t even a one-star Hunter, yet his father was a three-star one. He just couldn’t imagine how strong his father might be.

Gary’s foot was firmly planted on top of Billy’s chest, giving him no chance to escape. Through his feet, he could feel Billy’s heart beating. He was still alive, but Gary knew he was down for the count because of the system message he had received not too long ago.
