The Divine Wolf... or?

Watching Abaddon slaughter all of the guards made Ark sick, the ways he killed them were brutal, it was borderline torturing. He didn't let any of them just die, he kept on inflicting wounds and cutting off limbs. It was a very gruesome scene, not for the fainthearted at all.

The worst part about all of this was the fact that he had been laughing through the whole ordeal, it was such a genuine laugh as well. Ark had never met anyone who even came close to being this despicable. It didn't matter what Ark thought though since he didn't have the power to do anything.

Even though he was just playing with them, the guards still died after a little while, no matter how much they tried to fight back, their bodies couldn't handle it. Annette was crying as she sat on the ground, her purple irises were almost shining in the night and they looked exceptionally beautiful, even though she would soon die.

The ground was painted red with blood, both the guards and the demons, this gave the place an inexplicably heavy aura, the aura of a battlefield.

There was only one assassin master left, and he had lost his right arm, he was currently still fighting, he wouldn't give up. The assassins were incredibly loyal, and they would do anything for the one they were protecting.

This was how they were raised, they were also taught self-discipline and the art of enduring pain, this made them very scary on a battlefield, as they had nothing to lose and everything to win.

Abaddon was in a great mood, even though he had lost one of his eyes, he didn't care, he loved the feeling of pain on a battlefield. He loved the feeling of putting people into despair and taking away all of their hope. This was mainly why he was so thrilled, the humans had high morale because the wolf had taken his left eye, but then when he turned the tides he robbed them of all of their hope.

This felt great to him!

Ark who was lying in front of a boulder wasn't taking it easy and just watching in despair as everyone thought. He had used his healing skill on himself, which had helped him a little bit, but since he felt that it was lackluster he tried to recreate how he had done it when he used the skill, but by himself and with more Mana.

This had yielded splendid results as he now felt a lot better, his punctured lung had been healed almost completely, while his bones had realigned a little bit, making the healing process faster. He had also used body strengthening magic on his regenerative abilities. This also gave him a pleasant surprise as he was healing very fast, there was only one problem, his Mana.

Opening his status Ark feared the worst.

Seeing this Ark felt very dumb, not only because of his Mana usage but also because he had forgotten to use quite a lot of his skills, these skills could have been crucial to this fight! How could he forget something as simple and important as this? He also noticed that his water magic had become a higher level, but he didn't use it so he thought that it wasn't that important.

Having reflected on himself Ark started to prepare a little bit for what was coming.

Well at least he did what he could to be ready, there were many possibilities of how this could go down so Ark had a lot to think about since he didn't like being unprepared for anything. What he didn't know though was that no matter how much he planned he would never be able to predict what was about to happen.

But to be fair no one would be able to guess this, so it wasn't Ark that was lacking anything.

Whilst he was healing himself however, Abaddon had killed the last assassin and was moving towards Annette, he had a vicious grin as he was approaching slowly to make her despair more. And it was working quite well, Annette was scared, really scared.

She had always been trying her best to act cool and tough, even though she wasn't weak, she wasn't that powerful, and compared to her sibling and some other nobles, her talent wasn't that great. Now seeing Abaddon, a vicious Iron Demon walking towards her with a grin on his face, she was really scared. She had everything to live for, she didn't want to die.

"Please don't kill me! I'll do anything, just please!"

Screaming for her life Annette had already started running to the best of her abilities, this brought a wider grin to Abaddon's face as he started chasing her. Even though she had only been running for a couple of seconds she had already run past Ark. Abaddon had started a second or two later but he was right next to Ark now. But just as he was about to pass Ark there was a blinding light.

Ark that was about a meter away from him wasn't facing the light that had blinded Abaddon so he took this chance to give him an attack.

He put a great amount of Mana into his hind legs as he used all the force he could muster in this small time frame to lunge at Abaddon. He also activated nimble, to gain a burst of extra speed. Abaddon, however, sensed this lunge, even though he couldn't see he put up all the defense that he could muster.

The attack landed on Abaddon's left arm as he managed to twist his body a little to try and dodge some of the force. This, however, resulted in the loss of his left arm.

Ark was a bit annoyed that Abaddon was able to sense the attack since he could have managed a fatal attack if that weren't the case, he was still happy that he managed to get rid of one of the arms though since that would lower his attack output considerably, his sword was two-handed after all.

Ark didn't manage to back out in time this time though as he was hit by Abaddon's right fist, it didn't manage to damage him that much though as he was able to dodge some of the force, this resulted in Ark skidding across the ground for about 3 meters before stopping.

Abaddon wasn't able to output his full strength in that attack earlier, otherwise, Ark would have been in for a world of pain due to his lackluster defense.

The light had now faded and Ark and Abaddon were standing opposite each other with a space of 3,5 meters. They were both intensely glaring at each other. This went on for a full 5 seconds until Abaddon finally spoke up.

"I would have never thought that you would recover so fast!"

"I'm quite sure I broke something!"

This however only gained him a bit of a mocking smirk from Ark, Ark wanted to try and get him a little hot-headed as it would help him if Abaddon wasn't fighting to his utmost ability since he had more fighting experience. Abaddon, however, got excited when he saw Ark's expression since it would be delightful to change his face into one full of despair!

They were both so caught up in their own business that they had both completely forgotten about the blinding light that had been the instigator for their resumed fight.

....

Annette was feeling dreadful, she had started running earlier than the demon but he had almost already caught up, she even had a head start! When the demon was just behind her though there was suddenly a blinding light. This light came from a circle that had suddenly appeared on the ground in front of her.

When the light had faded a little she saw a group of teenagers standing in front of her, there was also one grownup in the front of them all. They all looked extremely confused for a second before some started to scream, whilst the others started to chat with each other. They all had one thing in common though, they were all confused.

Seeing this group Annette felt delighted and then confused herself. At first, she had thought that someone had sent for help and that they were wizards who had gotten teleported here to help her, but when she saw the confusion on their faces as well as their strange attires, she was at a loss for words.

"Who are you all?"

When she asked this question they all turned towards her, they all looked confused, then some of the girls started screaming hysterically. In their point of view, they had suddenly appeared in the middle of nowhere, then they had seen a blood-soaked woman asking them who they were, with a battlefield behind her.

When Annette heard them screaming she got even more confused, then something inside of her brain suddenly clicked. How could she have forgotten!

"Chant status!"

Hearing this strange woman telling them to this some of them were dumbfounded, what happened next though was that one of them tried it and saw a screen appear in front of them. After making this discovery they then all started looking at their respective screens, talking to each other. Some of them were scared while some of them were excited.

The ones who were excited were the ones who had read light novels and could guess what had happened to them. After everyone had calmed themselves down a little bit the teacher stepped forward to try and speak with this foreign woman.

"What happened to us?"

"You have been summoned from your original world to ours!"

"What does that mean?"

"Our world is under the threat of the demon's invasion since we needed help to stop them from killing us all, we have used magic to summon you!"

Hearing this made all of the teenagers a bit hot-blooded since they felt that the fate of the world rested on their shoulders, even if that wasn't the case. The teacher was about to further question this sketchy woman when they suddenly heard a loud BOOM a bit away. Looking over they could see an intense battle between a metal-skinned demon and a blue wolf.

Their battle was very intense as the ground vibrated every time the wolf's claws crossed paths with the man's sword.

....

Ark's muscles were beginning to become sore after such an intense battle that was between pure physical fitness. Therefore he decided that it would be for the best if he started to use his magic.

At this point he had noticed the newly arrived people, looking at their attire he had also been able to guess that they were from his original world, this got him thinking a little bit, why was he brought here to reincarnate? And why a wolf? He quickly cleared his head from those thoughts though since he had other things to think about, more important stuff!

He started to accumulate all of the ice Mana he could muster, not just inside his body but also outside of his body. Due to the tremendous amount of ice Mana converging around him it created a blizzard that hovered around him, his eyes started to shine way more intensely than they had been shining previously as he stared at Abaddon.

Abaddon, feeling this intense pressure being emitted by Ark, decided to use his ace attack as well. Abaddon started to accumulate lots of metal Mana, he also used some of his blood essences to infuse into this attack.

When he had infused his blood essence into the large amounts of metal Mana he started to form it, it quickly gathered into the shape of a giant metal sword above his head. This move had been taught to him by a [Bronze Metal Demon] and it was his ultimate ace attack, since it was very hard to use, and he would be very drained after using it.

Seeing how his opponent had made his final ace attack the shape of a sword Ark decided to do the same, he didn't know what shape to make it otherwise so he thought that it was a great idea. Ark, however, hadn't infused his blood essence, he didn't know how to do it anyways.

As both of their final attacks had taken shape the showdown was finally approaching. Abaddon's sword looked about as crude as the sword that he had been using during this fight, while Ark's sword was very exquisite, it looked like it had been carved from the finest of crystal. They both uttered their battle cries as they controlled their swords to strike.

When they clashed everything around them started to vibrate, they had both just crudely used their swords and now it was a contest of who had more power.

Ark had wanted to use technique but he had never used a sword before, so this was his only option. The swords ground against each other as the world around them shook. It was suddenly revealed that Ark was winning since Abaddon's sword started to show signs of cracking. He struggled desperately to fight against Ark's sword, but it was all in vain, as his sword cracked.

After destroying Abaddon's sword, Ark's sword didn't stop in the slightest and flew at Abaddon at a tremendous speed. When the sword made contact there was zero resistance as Abaddon was cut in half, from the top to the bottom.

When this was revealed Ark felt his legs turn soft, as he was too exhausted to even stand up right now. He felt elated at the thought that he had made it through this crisis when he suddenly remembered something, there were still other demons left! They hadn't been able to interfere earlier since they were too weak, but now Ark could barely move, and their leader was killed in front of their eyes.

Seeing their ferocious looks Ark let out a soft sigh as he had no energy to do anything more.

When they were getting close enough to injure him and Ark had given up all of his hope, they suddenly all lit on fire. Their horrible screams didn't even last a single second before they had turned into fine dust, scattering in the wind...
