The Lord of the forest

The mountainous region right outside of B city had been seen as an ordinary very long time there is no precious crystals or record of monster's appearance. But until by some chance one of the B city's Three Most Powerful Families, the Fang Family gained information from mysterious person about infant spirit beast in the southwestern part of the forest.

Without a shred of fear from divine retribution, the Fang family sent mercenaries along with the loyal family member.

"Dammit! Dammit Why?"

However, nobody thought two infant spirit beast is guarded by a large pack of wolves lead by the lord of the forest itself. Which lead to a large battle between the wolf pack and mercenaries.

"This was supposed to be an easy hunt, now because of this bastard we almost got annihilated!"

Cursed one of the mercenaries surrounding a massive black wolf taller than adult male blocking the entrance of the nest. Inside the nest, two white pups appear to be peeking behind a thick root of a tree. This massive black wolf and two pups is lord of this forest and spirit beasts appeared in the forest.

"Hairless monkeys, why are you killing us?"

"We're just trying to live, we never killed one of you or took something precious."

With deep human voice, the black wolf asked from people surrounding himself.

"Huh?"

In just moment mercenaries and people from Fang family surprised at hearing beast talking so fluently in human language. Then a man armed with red spear took a step forward.

Man looks like in his early twenty, with his mature looking face and phoenix shaped eyes coupled with his tall stature he looked like hero came out from a book. His name is Fang Xieren a level 2 awakened that send by Fang family.

"Greetings, the lord of the forest. My name is Fang Xieren I come from Fang family to retrieve the two-spirit beast behind you. Could you please move away."

With a smirk, Fang Xieren spoke as if he asking a simple thing completely opposite of his image. There was no shred of respect towards the lord of the forest.

"You entered this forest without permission and killed my pack! Now you asking me hand over my children ?!"

"Hairless monkey! There limit for your rudeness. Now stop pissing me off and scram from this forest!"

Black wolf bellowed towards Fang Xieren. After hearing this human's speech, they killed his pack and his female and now telling him to hand them his flesh and blood. The black wolf's hatred towards the human race reached his core. Even right now he wanted to rip off this hateful human right in front of him, but not this time, this time he must protect his pups.

"Okay... "

Said Fang Xieren with his red spear, suddenly took step back at the same time with a quick sweep with his spear, he targeted the black wolf's front legs. There are no living creatures that don't fear the pain knowing this, Fang Xieren's first move was to keep the wolf at bay and create space between them.

Fang Xieren's way of thinking was right but he forgot he fighting against not just mindless cornered beast. One with feelings and intelligence. Followed by his swipe a deep wound appeared on black wolf's front left leg followed by a spray of blood. With a smirk, he waited for a wolf to take a step back.

"Wh-what!?"

Screamed Fang Xieren as he saw black wolf jumping towards him completely ignoring the previous injury. Quickly recovering from his surprise, he crouched and placing his spear's butt on ground pointing head towards the black wolf.

*Pierce!*

By his force combined with his weight, Fang Xieren's spear stuck right deep into the black wolf. With warm blood dripping on his face Fang Xieren's mouth formed a twisted smile mocking the wolf: 'Heh, no matter how to become smart or strong beast is still beast.'

But then Fang Xieren saw a hind of a smirk in eyes of a black wolf. At this moment, he realized he made a mistake and tried to pull out his spear, but the black wolf already jumped back.

"Heh, hahaha!"

With mad laugher, the black wolf spoke while his blood dripping from spear's butt lodged above his shoulder.

"There! weapon of your best fighter is useless."

Black wolf already knew on moment Fang Xieren raised his spear there is no way out. So he prepared to take out this human with a strong aura at first.

"Kill him! hurry up kill him!"

Freaked by black wolf's mad laughter, Fang Xieren screamed toward mercenaries slowly crawling backwards. Waked up by his scream quickly mercenaries begun to attack the black wolf. Some of them begun to hack wolf with their swords that have a faint blue light.

One holding gun-shaped weapon took their aim and a small magic circle appears at end of the barrel then begun shoot all kinds of magic bullets towards the black wolf.

"Morons!"

Said black wolf opened his mouth and easily ripped off mercenary's head with his enormous fang. Then followed by powerful swipe, he throws a poor man into the tree. No matter how many times get hacked or shot black wolf continue to rip and tear mercenaries undying monster.

But he didn't notice Fang Xieren entering his nest behind his back. Fang Xieren was felt humiliated by outsmarted by a mere beast and even showing that pathetic sight. In a rage, he decided to take the infant spirit beast as a hostage and torture black wolf to his heart content.

"F*cking beast how dare he sullies my spear with his foul blood. Heh, it is good divination didn't show the number of spirit beasts so I can kill one of those shits."

Just by imagining the reaction of the black wolf when he kills his child with creepy smile Fang Xieren prepares to slam one of the white pups into the ground in front of the black wolf.

Seeing that wretched human standing in front of his nest and about to slam one of his children into the ground black wolf wanted to rush but surrounded by mercenaries he got no way out.

*BANG!*

Suddenly all of them heard loud and clear sound. Then they saw Fang Xieren suddenly knocked into the right direction, like a doll hit by a large hammer dropping to pups into the ground.
