Chapter 360 Shin Vs Melos (1)
Just by looking at that, it seemed as if a beast that was ten times the size of an average human was making its way but as the mist that was covering the forest was slowly blown away the figure of the beast was clear - A WHITE WOLF.
Due to the moonlight behind him, he looked huge but in reality, he was the size of any normal wolf, perhaps even smaller.
"Tsk looks like all of them ran away...", the white wolf spoke arrogantly.
"Greetings Your Highness, we have been awaiting your presence."
"We did as your ordered. We didn't attack the humans first and waited until they showed any signs of hostility.", Deoras bowed and reported this to Shin.
"Haha, I see.", Shin seemed happy.
"Good job.", Shin praised Deoras.
Only a few words from Shin made Deoras forget his anger.
"Yes, your highness. We have been waiting for you.", he made it as if he had already sensed Shin's presence and was waiting for his arrival.
"Haha, you didn't have to wait for me Deoras! You could have led the pack till the West Terrain.", Shin spoke somewhat sarcastically while fully knowing the dangers that were present in the West Terrain.
But when he said that, he somewhat meant it. That was because, the West Terrain was going to start as soon as one crossed the Bona kingdom, which was no more than a few ten to twenty kilometres away.
"I wish I could do that but I am not worthy of being given such an important role yet, Your Highness.", Deoras thought that Shin was genuinely asking him to go all the way to the West Terrain.
"Hmm, it indeed looks like you have to grow a bit stronger, only then I guess you can lead them!", Shin jokingly said this, as if playing along with Deoras.
"Thanks for the praise Your Highness and I apologize for the lack of my strength. I will try my best to grow stronger."
Deoras was holding a good conversation with Shin and this was only possible because Shin was happy for reasons unknown.
Regardless, Shin ignored what Deoras said and then took the lead and all the other wolves followed him after giving another ground-shaking howl.
"Aoooooooooooo!"
He looked towards the starry sky filled with stars in the dark sky which looked extraordinarily beautiful.
All the remaining wolves just rested and fell asleep while he and Deoras were the only ones who were awake and keeping an eye on the surrounding.
Shin kept on staring at the night sky. He was thinking about everything that has happened in his life. From his death in the past life to his reincarnation as a wolf with cheats. From how he became a human to someone who hated humans.
He could just sigh, and keep on looking at the beautiful night sky filled with stars.
Just as he was relaxing he spotted Deoras who was walking towards Shin.
Shin just patiently waited for Deoras who was slowly walking towards Shin.
"Your highness."
"What's the matter, Deoras," Shin asked as he continued staring at the giant black wolf.
"Your highness, what happened that time? Why did you suddenly leave? And your mood… Now that you have returned, it seems as if your mood is better than before."
"Well, because it is. As for why I left at that time. It is because..."
---[Flash back]---
Shiro had originally decided that he would attack the Levonia kingdom after he met with the heavenly family, but he couldn't control his anger and feared that he might do something crazy in this anger and killing intent, thus he dashed toward the Levonia kingdom with all his speed.
He soon arrived at the Levonia kingdom. As soon as he spotted the walls of the kingdom, his killing intent exploded.
Melos, the great summoner who was standing above the western wall, while closing his eyes feeling the peaceful breeze, suddenly trembled a bit, and his eyes wide opened as he felt the familiar killing intent.
-Gulp
He gulped a large amount of saliva, making his throat go dry, but then he clenched his fist.
Kelton and Walton who were standing on the same wall also trembled a bit as they felt the familiar killing intent.
They soon turned their head to their left and saw a ray of black aura, continuously exploring and sending shockwaves toward the kingdom.
The people in the kingdom and the soldiers at the gate started to shiver, in fear.
"Kh, hahaha! Melos look, at that pitiful prey of yours, that you left last time." Walton said as he grabbed the hilt of his sword that was on his back and then proceed to unsheath it.
"Let me finish him quickly," Walton said as he continued looking at Shin who was dashing towards them.
"No Walton, as you said he is my prey, so I should finish him shouldn't I?" Melos said in a calm Tone to which Walton clicked his tongue.
"Be quick," Walton said with an interesting look.
"Sure," Melos said as a smile appeared on his face.
Then Melos channelled all his strength on his legs and then jumped from the giant wall.
But before even his body could make a contact with the ground he activated his skill.
A giant summoning circle started to form. The ground started to tumble and cracks started to form.
Once the summoning circle was completely formed, flames burst out of it. Yellowish-orange flames completely engulfed Melos's body.
But soon once the flames completely disappeared the summoned creature was visible. It was a giant python. Crystal blue eyes, brown scales, the tip of the tail engulfed in orange flames, and a human standing on the top of its head.
Melos standing on the top of the python's head smirked.
"Damn! That's cool as heck." Walton said as he looked at Melos who was elegantly standing on the head of the python.
Kelton didn't have much of a reaction and kept on looking at Melos with an emotionless face.
