46 Chapter 46: Meeting the enemy

His bright blue iris slowly reverted to its original pitch-black color, the claws and fangs which was stained red with blood slowly retracted

"Damn it…." Derik muttered as he spat out blood.

At this very moment, Derik was kneeling on a small pool of his blood, looking around the training yard, there were several pools of blood all over the place. Even the guards and servants present who watched the fight shuddered in fear, at a point they began to wonder if this was a spar or an actual fight, where both individuals put their life on the line.

"Even though your wolf power grants you high-speed regeneration, it still doesn't mean you can't run out of blood…" Francis said with a smile on his face. His beautiful green iris was fixed on Derik who was still trying to catch his breath, it was obvious this young lad was enduring so much pain right now

"Good job though… I didn't think you will be able to go through with the agreement… I saw how much you tried to restrain yourself from using your magic spells… You've got control… I'll give you that" Francis laughed. He wasn't trying to make Derik feel better, at this point this nature mage was truly impressed by the control this kid has been able to showcase throughout the one-hour long battle. One hour!!!! Though the battle only lasted this long because Francis didn't use any lethal or one-hit kill technique, he initially planned to slowly wear Derik down yet, inflicting minor wounds, but still! Been able to hold out that long is something to be proud of when the battle started Derik just growled and swung his claws at Francis at random, with no control but soon after his attacks became more controlled and the stamina he wasted greatly reduce. His attacks became more accurate and precise, that's why Francis has a few shallow claw wounds on him.

"Even though you will be on the defensive throughout the battle because of your lack of fight skills but still… with your current strength, you should be able to stand against those bloodsuckers for a while… maybe with my help, you may be able to kill one" Francis said

Derik only nodded in response as he struggled to get on his feet, even though his wounds were completely healed, he still felt a bit dizzy to due to the fact he lost so much blood. His face was pale and has almost lost all color, his eyes lazily roamed around the training ground, seeing his blood everywhere Derik could only smile bitterly, he still failed to understand what kind of power nature magic is and only got the chance to see what a few magic techniques used by Francis looked like, after this experience, he could only describe all he saw with one word

STRANGE!

He smiled bitterly and remembered the moment when the elder vampire in the salvor attacked him

TERRIFYING!!!

Even after witnessing a small fraction of Francis' strength who obviously did not take the fight seriously, he concluded that if these two legends collide, the vampire may end up winning the battle. He still wondered why the Lockwood family had so much faith in this man, he only hoped that this man will prove him right when the time comes.

"Tomorrow night…" Derik muttered

"Don't worry… everything will end well" Francis responded

Just outside the gate of the Lockwood castle were carriages bearing various banners that belong to the various noble families in this little town. About seven carriages were belonging to the various noble families and then over eight carriages belonging to other wealthy families which resided in this little town, amongst these carriages was one which belonged to the salvor family.

"Then dare approach this place with such confidence…" Barry said frowning as he and four other figures which stood by his side, staring out the window. His eyes twitched as he watched all seven members of the Salvor family walk through the gates with an elderly man who was supported by a little pale girl about the same age as Derik. This is the same girl Derik met in the Salvor mansion a few days ago

"I must confess… their acting skills are quite impressive" Lucas laughed. Even though he wore a vivid smile on his face, the disgust and hatred for this bloodsuckers could not be hidden in his eyes

"Seven… Even with the aid of our soldiers and Francis… this will be a tough battle" Rolan said with a serious look on his face as he stared at the Salvors. His gaze shifted to Derik who was standing right beside him and he asked "Do you think we can win?"

"No… Even if we do there will be a lot of casualties…" Derik answered honestly "A man who just received the power of a vampire at this very moment has the power and speed comparable to level 15 monsters… this is the level of alpha's level… This team is made up of one level 15 alpha, three-level 12 Beta's and a level 9 omega… we are outclassed and outnumbered… Unless Francis is way beyond the level I estimate him to be… then we are in for a bitter deathmatch" Derik explained further with a casual look on his face. His wild eyes remained fixed on the Salvors

"You seem to lack faith in ancient werewolf families… You will get to see the true power of the werewolves tonight… after which you will understand why vampires fear us" Scott said, patting his chest with his fist
