16 Fighting the beas (1/2)
Unlike the other times, there wasn't an eerie silence in this room. Instead, Dorian could hear a ragged breath. But he couldn't care less about that for the moment, because the thing in front of him was taking all of his attention.
A tall figure, about two meters tall, covered in hairs, sharp claws… For Dorian, there was no doubt about the nature of this creature, it was none other than the terrible Werewolf.

It was currently facing off against a man, who was trembling all over, staring in fright at the beast. Dorian had entered the room in Stealth mode, along with Fade, so the Werewolf didn't notice him, but the man looked at him.
Fortunately, for Dorian, before the man could utter a word, the Werewolf jumped at him, tearing him apart with a single claw.
Dorian was ready to assault it when suddenly it turned around, staring in Dorian's direction. Dorian could finally see its face, which was covered in blood, the man was probably not its first victim today.
The beast suddenly said with a raspy voice, which was more akin to a growl than an actual sentence ”You… I smell you, intruder… A hiding rat, let me TASTE YOUR FLESH!”
With a howl, it jumped at the entrance of the room, using both its claws to destroy Dorian's hiding spot. But as soon as it did, the beast noticed something strange, there was no blood.
But it was too late, as it felt two daggers slash at its back. One of the daggers did nothing more than a scratch, not even tearing the flesh, but the other went through without a problem, slashing apart one of the beast's back muscles.
The Werewolf howled in pain and turned around, slashing at its attacker, but he was gone. Rage filled the beast and it started releasing a red aura, which seemed to strengthen it.
Dorian, who was hiding in a corner, looked on with a frown. He just discovered that only his [Sampau's Claw] could actually damage the beast.
But if he struck a weak point then it would most certainly still damage it. But now, with this red aura, if it strengthened its defense too, then even weak points would stop his Steel Dagger.
Thoughts converged in Dorian's head, and plans were created. As the Werewolf finished its transformation, Dorian threw one of his sub par daggers.
But he didn't threw it at the wolf, but at a vase nearby instead. The beast instantly jumped toward the vase, tearing apart everything around.
This allowed Dorian to confirm his fears, the beast had really gotten faster, and stronger. So it was either an overall enhancement, and Dorian was pretty much screwed, or it was berserk mode of sorts that increased attack and lowered defense.
Dorian then threw another dagger, at another corner of the room. The wolf seemed to have lost its intelligence though, as it lunged again at the sound, falling for the same trap.
As it was ravaging the area, Dorian ran to his previous dagger, grabbed it and attacked the wolf. This time, he used both his daggers to execute Kidney strike, each one aiming to one kidney.
But his fears revealed to be accurate, as this time even his [Sampau's Claw] could barely pierce through the flesh, and couldn't even reach the kidney.
But Dorian wanted to rely on the paralysis effect this skill brought to cripple the beast.
However, he had miscalculated this time. As he side stepped to attack the beast's weak points, he was shocked to see the beast move. He didn't have the time to react and the beast clawed at him.
All Dorian could do was to slightly turn around, causing the claws to only hit the right side of his chest. This still sent him flying though.
Dorian's body crashed into one of the earthen walls, making the room tremble, and fell to the ground, blood spraying around. The beast licked its claws, enjoying the taste of Dorian's blood.
Dorian could barely remain awake, his eyes threatening to close themselves at any moment. But thankfully, or not, the pain finally came in and Dorian was brought out of his reverie, the agony waking him up.
