Never a better time than now. [Day 3]

After the quality finds I also explore the workshop and manage to find linin cloth and a scouring pad for the maintenance of the blade. I head for the door of the blacksmiths walking past Rex who is napping next to the door I prepare to leave when I notice it is getting cloudier.

Me: "What do you reckon Rex, think we can make it home." All I hear back is a whimper.

Me: "I feel the same."

Looking around the house I can see that it is still of decent quality. But before I can do anything Rex suddenly jumps up and stands out the doorway growing out into the open.

Me: "What you got Rex."

As I walk to stand next to Rex, I start to hear the first sounds of rainfall.

Me: "Well this doesn't bode well."

After a few moments and the rain starting to pick up is when I start to see what Rex was growing at.

Emerging from where we entered are three wolves. Identifying I find that two of them are Young Wolfs whilst the third is a new one which looks identical to the other two wolves except larger in size and claw length.

[Race: Wolf, Sex: Male, Rank: F-]

Seeing how they most likely want a fight I draw my sword out holding it in my two hands and drop my backpack. I also decide to quickly assign my spare stat points.

> STR: 13 -> 14 & AGI: 15 -> 16.

Seeing me draw my weapon the three wolves run towards me charging through the rain that is splashing off them as they spring.

No time like the present to learn how to use a weapon, they also say learning through blood is another great way. Moving outside of the house to have more mobility to move around Rex also comes out of the house and charges at the wolves.

The two young wolves decide that they have a chance against Rex so spit of and charge against him whilst the main wolf charges to me.

With the wet ground, I decided to lower my body down to give myself better control. Steadying my blade to the right of me I prepare for the wolf to jump towards me. However, the wolf is much smarter than I gave him credit for as he instantly goes for my leg instead with his jaw.

Not expecting that I get my foot out the way be it not without taking a light bit mark on me.

> Health: 22/22 -> 19/22.

With my feet not being under me, I can't swing my weapon, along with my slightly slipping allows the wolf to try and go for me again but instead with its claw. Being quickly on my feet this time I manage to dodge the claw to my stomach by moving my torso back.

Getting annoyed by the wolf I then use all my upper body to swing my blade horizontally at the wolf. With my hold body behind the swing, it makes the blade move surprising fast with the wolf only escaping by jumping away from me but not before the blade give a cut down the length of its body.

Making sure to keep attention to my surroundings I give a quick glance to Rex to see that he has managed to kill one of the young wolves and it is taking the other one now.

Turning back to my wolf I see it land back on the ground and start to circle me more cautiously this time. I also move around him to keep him at range with him getting closer to the blacksmiths.

Suddenly I hear squelching behind me. Not trusting whatever that is I roll to the right, which was just in time as when I look up another wolf has joined the other wolf. I see that three more wolves have started to run towards Rex as well.

Crap this is situation is getting worse. The only escape would be to the blacksmith's house and somehow funnel them as we have no chance in hell if we go into the woods as that is their terrain.

As I am processing this only a moment has passed but I can hear the running of another wolf behind me.

Not this time you cock, turning around quickly I swing my sword directly where I hear the wolf coming. When I do I manage to swing directly where the wolf is bringing the sword directly to his head and going straight through spiting his head in two spraying blood all over the sword.

[You have killed: Race: Wolf, Rank: F-, gained: 32 EXP]

[You levelled up: 1/15 -> 2/15 ]

[Gained 2 Unassigned Stat Points.]

[Skill has levelled up: Basic Enhanced Senses 2/5 -> 3/5 ]

Before I can do anything else I hear more running towards me. Thinking that it is another wolf I look up as my blade won't be quick enough to come up again, but it is just Rex running to stand next to me.

Confused by this I look up to see where he was fighting to see that there are four dead young wolves but have now been joined by eight other young wolves and wolves.

Bollocks. We are now surrounded by what I can see to be eleven wolves with them being a mix between wolfs and young wolves.

Me: "This is not looking good Rex."
