Chapter 334 - Lycans of Ancient Times (1) (2/2)

The lycans were just a few feet before us. Just in time of their leap towards us, I conjured a fire wall that burned the ones that took the first attack. The lycans that were burned whimpered before us in pain, their cries were heard.

”Atlantian sc.u.m!” The gray one snarled at us from behind the fire wall.

I see the lycans retreat a few feet from my fire wall, looking at us with angry eyes. The black one was the one to leap first.

”Brace yourselves!” I told my men. They were ready for the lycan's next attack.

The black lycan was able to leap above my fire wall and the others followed en route. Before the other lycans could also cross the fire wall, I made it more higher and more aggressive that before. Many of the other lycans that came after was burned with my fire wall. They all dropped and whimpered in pain with the sudden attack.

”How dare you?!” The gray lycan leaped in front of me, baring his claws and fangs ready for the kill. But a pillar of rock shot up from the ground hitting the gray wolf straight in his gut.

”Ahhh.” The gray lycan groaned in pain. ”F*ck!”

I looked beside me and saw that Alex was the one to conjure the rock pillar.

”Thanks Alex.” I appreciated his help.

”You are welcome your majesty.” Alex replied. ”It is my job to see that you are safe.” I nodded with his words.

'It is also my job to make sure that my men will make it out alive from here.' I thought to myself.

I see my men holding their own against these big and ferocious lycans. They can only have a fighting chance because they are Atlantians with magic abilities. If this were ordinary humans, they have no fighting chance against this big beasts.

Like the other ancient monsters written in the ancient books, there is only little known from lycans.  But the notable thing I remember is that they move like a pack of wolves. With knowing who their alpha leader is, if I was able to defeat their leader, then maybe I can stop any more violence.

'Maybe like the sirens, we can come to an understanding.' I thought. 'But, that is if I force them to listen first.'

”Fire armor!” I put my fire armor on, ready to find the alpha leader, the black lycan.

Two lycans were coming right for me. I was ready for their attack.

*ROAR*

They leaped at the same time. I swing my sword and slashed one, while the other one I burned with my flames.

I jumped out of their way, leaving them to lay down the ground injured. I quickly ran, searching for the black lycan. One after another, the lesser lycans come at me, and one by one they fall to the ground injured with my attacks.

After some time had passed, I found the black lycan at last. He was engaging battle with three of my men. My men were having a hard time containing the enormous beast, even with using their magic abilities. They were being thrown with the beast's strong paws, some of them also have teeth marks.

”Alpha!”I called out.

The black lycan stopped after hearing me call. It looked at my direction in an instant.

”I am sure you do not want any of your bretheren to be injured any further than this. I as well do not want my men to get injured.” I pointed my sword towards the black lycan alpha leader. ”Let us finish this between us, leader against leader. I challenge you!” I said with upmost seriousness.
