Chapter 14 - Blood Calamity Part 2 (2/2)

Said Will to himself. He rubbed his storage ring and took something out. It was a piece of meat, a chicken drumstick to be precise. It was already cooked and looked sumptuous. Will took a bite as he stared at the wolves.

The wolves, which were seething in rage before, suddenly entered a state of confusion. The human, who was surrounded and outmatched, was eating? They could not understand what he was doing. The generals wouldn't move without their king's order, and the king only looked at Will, its eyes narrowed in suspicion. It knew he was planning something.

It was wiser than its peers and saw that he was far too calm, considering the situation he was in. Even though it was angry a few moments ago, it quickly regained its calm and focused on Will, wondering what the boy would do next.

Will ravenously devoured his drumstick, till only the bone was left. Then he jumped off the head. He took a few steps, the looked up toward the wolves, a smug grin plastered on his greasy face.

”Dogs will always be dogs. You never move without instructions. I knew you were obedient, but I never knew it was to this degree. You even let I, your father, finish my meal without a single sound, truly marvelous.

Well seeing as how you won't move without instructions, let me help you along. You, aaaaannnd you.... fetch!” Will used his free hand, to point at the two weakest generals, and threw the bone a few feet ahead of him.

The wolves were stunned. They had never expected to meet such blatant disrespect. Especially the two generals that Will pointed at. They were stunned at first, but after thinking it through, their anger got the better of them.

They started growling, exposing their large sharp teach and in the process, dropped large globs of saliva onto the ground. Still, they did not move, because their king did nothing. The king was still trying to figure out what Will was doing.

Will was disappointed that his little gambit didn't work, but when he saw the saliva dropping onto the ground, he was struck by some inspiration.

”Woah, I can tell that you two are really looking forward to the bone I gave you. Look at that, your even salivating! Your piece of trash king probably doesn't feed you enough, don't worry, Daddy has it covered. In fact, let me add some flavor.”

After Will's monologue, he walked toward the bone and spat on it. Looking up, he saw that the two generals were so angry, that their eyes had turned red and were about to pop out of their sockets.

”What? Still not enough flavor? OK, fine. Daddy will help you out. Let me give you something extra special, something I've been saving just for cute little doggies like you.”

Will then did something that the wolves never expected, he started urinating! He started urinating on the bone. It was at this moment that the king finally realized what Will was up to, but unfortunately, it was too late. Its subordinates could no longer hold themselves back anymore. This was the greatest disgrace of their entire lives.

The two wolves lunged at Will with all their might. Anger had completely clouded their judgment. They flew straight toward Will, howling as loudly as they could. If looks could kill, then Will would already be dead a thousand times over.

The sheer speed that these wolves were moving at was incredible. The wind moved around turbulently around them as if they were the living incarnation of a hurricane.

The moment they lunged toward Will, he closed his eyes. He wasn't sure if his eyes could keep up with their movements, thus he relied on his sixth sense. Due to the incredible amount of killing intent the wolf duo gave out, Will didn't need to use his eyes to see them.

From the king's point of view, Will's plan could only mean one thing; he had the strength to back it up, so he looked carefully at the proceedings. As soon as the two wolves moved, Will, put up a massive wall, composed of the previous blood mist, the king saw this as a bad omen, but he was too late to stop his servants.

The generals plunged into the blood mist wall, heading straight for Will. A few breaths of time passed, with a few scraping noises coming out of the mist. Will suddenly walked out of the mist, a confident expression on his face. Behind him, the blood mist dissipated, revealing the two generals, who were headed straight for Will.

The king had assumed that Will used the mist as cover, allowing him to dodge. Yet a moment later, he was astounded.

The moment the blood mist dissipated, Will raised both his hands and snapped them. ”Suijin no ikari: Mini Akimbo.” Said Will in a calm tone just before he snapped his fingers. The result was instant death.

The two wolves lunging after him from behind started convulsing in midair, their bodies crashing to the ground in an incredibly violent manner, the convulsions made them miss their targets by quite a bit.

Their inertia caused them to leave a long trail of displaced earth. Even as their bodies finally stopped, they were still convulsing. Their mouths started to foam, a hint of red mixed within.

Will remembered a certain phrase an uncle of his once told him.

The greatest fear is the fear of the unknown.

Will decided to test that fear, his mouth widening into a devilish grin.

”They say if you know yourself and your enemy, you will win a hundred battles. If you know only yourself, you will lose a battle for every battle you win. If you know nothing, then you are doomed for eternity...

So tell me, your Highness, how much do you know?”
