My Werewolf System

Chapter 177: Tag team Werewolf

If someone were to see him, they might call Gary’s fighting reckless, yet the teenager had actually been really careful. He hadn’t used his Full Transformation skill yet because he knew it would be better used at a later time.

First he wanted to wear Billy down, then fight him once he could even overwhelm him with strength. This was what Gary had planned, as he felt confident that he had more Energy at his disposal than the other Omega wolf thanks to his Warrior Class.

However, that wasn’t the only thing he was relying on. There was something else that Gary had that Billy lacked, and that was a partner. If the green haired teenager had been fighting on his own, he honestly wasn’t too confident that he alone might beat Billy, but fortunately there was a strong ally with him today.

Not only that, but Gary had Marked Blake, meaning he could use the mist slowly approaching their location. This neat feature told him that his partner was on his way and would be here soon, So he was just waiting for that perfect moment.

Seizing this chance, Gary activated another Claw Drain before stabbing Billy right in the stomach. Billy’s head was a little high, and Gary knew he would try to block it from getting a hit, there were also those deadly jaws that he needed to watch out for. As such, he had gone for the stomach instead.

‘Yes! Although I don’t know how much I’m damaging Billy because the system is unable to tell me that, I can make a good guess from the skill Claw Drain. With this healing, I must have dealt a critical hit!’

Pulling out his hands, Gary was going to attempt to stab him again, but just as he was about to, he could feel Billy grab him by the wrists, holding his hands in place. The high schooler pulled and pulled, but it was clear who was stronger between the two.

At the same time, Blake charged forward from behind. This time, rather than using the electrified baton, he was holding two short handed swords in his hand. They didn’t look like standard medieval swords from ancient times, though. Instead, the hilt had the design of scales, and feathers running down it. It almost looked like it had been created from some type of giant animal.

Blake felt most confident fighting with the batons, they were perfect to subdue an enemy, hurting it, and slowing it down, but against a Werewolf like Billy, the Altered Hunter could take no such risks. He had switched to his swords because Blake planned to kill his target.

Striking as hard as he could, he hit the top of the Werewolf’s shoulder where he could reach, the sword was sinking through but stopped. It was a shallow hit, and he couldn’t move it any further.

‘What is this skin? It’s incredibly thick, even with all my strength I was only able to cut it so deep.’

Blake slashed it again, trying to cut Billy causing a big cut, rather than cut through him. If he created a large flesh wound, it would still hurt and blood should still drop from it. This time, he struck from top to bottom diagonally along the back, but it still ended up being shallow.

Billy pretty much just ignored the attack from the Altered Hunter. Sure, it hurt, but he wanted to deal with what he believed to be the bigger threat first. Still holding onto Gary’s wrist, the Omega wolf pulled the claws out from his stomach.

The blood was pouring out, but the wound looked as if it was healing quickly. Then, lifting him by the hand, he twisted his body and lifted Gary’s body whole and slammed him against the side of the tunnel wall.

An imprint was left behind and blood poured out from the green haired teenager’s mouth as tiles fell to the floor along with him.

It was a big hit, and Gary could certainly feel it as he slowly was bearing through the pain. It was then he could see that Billy was now focusing on Blake. He took a few swipes and clangs were heard as the claws got deflected with hand swipes.

It was a strange sight to behold, although the Omega wolf was faster and stronger, the way the young Altered Hunter was parrying the hands allowed him to redirect most of the strength in the blows. It was almost as if he was predicting where his opponent would attack next.

Blake was backing up close to the side of the wall, Billy struck again, and his failure to hit Blake was starting to make him angry. The latter used his strength as he held both swords, skimming it just past his claws and pushing his body behind him, causing Billy to crash head first into the side.

His hands were stuck, and Blake didn’t waste this opportunity as he relentlessly began attacking his enemy’s back, making use of both his swords. Blake swung, not letting the other catch a break or himself. As soon as one sword hit the Werewolf another would and another.

‘Doesn’t he ever get tired?’ Gary wondered, even with his stamina he couldn’t imagine how hard it would be to do such a thing. It was almost as if Blake wasn’t breathing.

Blood was dripping from Billy’s back, and it looked like his wounds were taking longer to heal now. The damage from the two was piling up.

‘I can’t believe it, Blake isn’t an Altered, he isn’t like me or Billy, and yet he can still take on a Werewolf?’ Gary thought in amazement. Still, he had played his part in this all as well and standing up, Gary was ready to help Blake out.

There was one thing that was clear, Blake’s swords were unable to properly strike down Billy and deal the critical damage that was needed, which meant that it was all up to Gary.

However, suddenly Billy’s head turned to one side of the tunnel.

“AHHH!” A female screamed, at the other end.

Seeing this, Gary turned his head back towards the direction of the scream, and could see that Billy ignored Blake’s strikes and ran past the two teenagers. Although the Altered Hunter managed to cut the Omega wolf along his chest, their target headed straight for the woman who had turned around and was running for her life.

It was up to Gary to stop him. The Werewolf leaped after Billy and could see the back of his leg, he reached out to grab it, but as he closed his claw he had missed it by a few millimeters.

Falling onto the ground, Gary lifted his head and all he could see was that Billy had run off and had already grabbed the girl, digging into her with his powerful jaws.

“Damn it!” Gary cursed.
