Lycan who transformed into his wolf form is not battling with Nikita who also transformed to her wolf form. The battle between the two werewolves shook even the air that they are in as if the world is shaking. If a hardcore werewolf fan were to see their battle, then they would already be fanboying or fangirling.
Lycan focuses more on using his claws due to his job class while Nikita focused more on bite attacks that is quite lethal. Lycan paid dearly for underestimating Nikita as a chunk of flesh from his arm is bitten off. The flesh wound did heal quickly but that did not mean that he did not lose a significant deal of health.
Solstice seeing that Lycan cannot hold his ground, she immediately joined the battle. She made two blood swords using her own blood but losing 10% of her health. The downside of transforming to their wolf form is that they cannot use magic due to their hides having good magic resistance.
Some may think that it is a good thing, but the werewolves call it a blessing and a curse. A blessing since magic would be less effective on them once they transformed. A curse because werewolves who could use magic are unable to even formulate a spell when transformed which is why werewolves tend to go into the physical job classes rather than magical ones.
Nikita seeing that she was getting overpowered by two people howled. She told the young ones that she managed to protect to runaway as she will look for them later. Werewolves also have another language which is Wolfen. In the ears of other people, the sound is only a howl but to werewolves it is words.
The young werewolves were not fond of the idea of running away but it was clear to them that they were the targets. They realized this upon seeing that their other pack members no longer in their sights. This was a grave mistake on the part of Nikita as there was still one member of the Shadow Wolves that is not currently engaged in battle.
Solstice did not show her delight when she saw the young werewolves fleeing because she knew what would happen to them. She silently charged towards Nikita with her sharp blades. She was not yet able to undergo her job class advancement due to failing one of the missions but her current one which is Bloody Blade is enough to combat those higher level than her.
She is empowered whenever she uses weapons using her own blood which is why she does not have an official weapon because her blood is the weapon. That did not mean that she no longer needs a weapon, but her blood is able to mirror a weapon as long as she owns it.
Lycan kept Nikita busy by actively attacking her but it was Solstice that made sure to bring her down. Solstice only attacked points in one's body where artery is located which is why she was more lethal. Nikita noticed this and decided to finish off Solstice first.
Nikita brandished her sharp claws and increased her speed using a physical buff ability. She became faster than Lycan could anticipate and managed to injure Solstice. She slashed at Solstice's abdomen which made her have the bleeding status ailment but that was not a heavy downside for her.
Solstice smiled and used the blood that she herself is bleeding to become chains that wrapped around Nikita. The female werewolf is caught by the unexpected attack as she did not know that the female warrior that she is battling could actually control blood but that only made her become pissed off.
"You dare be in league with vampires! How low have you werewolves become!?" Nikita shouted in anger as her eyes became bloodshot.
Nikita became so enraged by the fact that the werewolf attacking her right now is fighting with vampires. She who lost everything because of vampires which is why she flew in a frenzy. Her attack could no longer be predicted because she is enraged which meant that two of her enemies became much hurt.
The two of them became even more injured as time passed but that also meant that Nikita became even more fatigued. The blood chains might not be enough to permanently stop her, but it greatly reduced her strength just to destroy them.
When Solstice and Lycan were at their wits end, a dart suddenly pierces the neck of Nikita. She did not lose strength immediately and even managed to take out the needle. She looked towards the direction where the needle hit her but that was a mistake as Lycan, and Solstice managed to pin her down.
She was then hit by two more needles this time that managed to finally incapacitate her. Lycan and Solstice slumped down on the ground as they were exhausted. They drank potions since they do not have a healer in their party.
"She was very difficult to incapacitate. Killing is much easier than keeping them alive." Solstice argued as she drank a health potion.
"I know. I always talked with my fists first rather than restrain them, but it was much more difficult than I thought." Lycan stated.
"We are lucky that Shado managed to capture all of them then. But what intrigues me is that ten werewolves are being watched by one beta on Adrian's side. Why doe we have three when they are only fifteen of them?" Solstice asked as she did not know why that is.
"Sorry I am late!" Someone shouted from the distance.
Adrian and the two other members of the Shadow Wolves then arrived with Kanlaon. He saw that there were fifteen individuals sleeping soundly. It seems that the dose of Wolfsbane is mixed with a sleeping agent.
The other two Shadow Wolves then brought with them the two betas that they incapacitated but Adria' face became distorted.
"Get away from those two right now!" Adrian shouted at the two members of the Shadow Wolves, but it was too late. Spike like arms are already piercing their sides.
