Simon fired another bullet, pointing it towards the baby pup. The pup jumped to his side and dodged the bullet with absolute ease. It was Simon's first time to see an animal who dodged his bullet like a human.
'No, it must be his animal instinct. Such creatures don't have any intelligence. It must be his luck or just by chance, hmm….'
Simon pondered over it for a second, then shot another bullet towards the baby pup. And like the first time, the pup dodged it by jumping towards his side.
The other two team members observed the baby pup's movements and determined it wasn't a dumb creature like the others. It had some intelligence like humans.
One of them nodded head to the other and pulled out the gun from his pocket.
Bang!!
This time the one firing the bullet wasn't Simon. Instead, it was one of his teammates. As expected, the pup jumped to his right to dodge the bullet.
And this was what they wanted. Some seconds ago, they made a plan to distract the pup with a bullet, and when it jumps to its side, another will throw a butchering knife to get it off guard.
As planned, before the moment the pup landed on the ground, another member threw one of the butchering knives that he was using before.
Bullseye!!
Shouted the one with knives. He had confidence in his skills and was optimistic that his knife will pierce through the target. But again, little did he know at that time, the pup had received the Supreme Blessings of a Divine God.
The knife hit the target as predicted, but it didn't pierce the pup as expected. Everyone present there was shocked.
Sk was lying close to the pup, squawking and screaming in pain. Earlier, when she saw her cut-off hand, she didn't feel any pain. The reason was very simple, her nervous system and receptors weren't that fast to react to the pup's action.
A few seconds later, her brain recognized the damage inflicted on the body and sent signals of pain. At this time, others were making the plan of distracting and throwing the knife.
The knife hit the pup on its head. But before piercing through his body, it froze up and was shattered into pieces.
Sk was the one who saw this thing from near and recognized the crescent moon mark on his head.
"RUN! GUYS RUN!! SIMON RUN!!"
Though she was feeling the pain, she didn't care about it anymore and asked the others to flee.
The crescent moon sign disappeared after the knife was shattered. It was on the pup's head just for a few seconds. And those few seconds were enough to give out a sinister feeling that Sk had never felt before.
More than her own life, she became concerned about the others. Sk was acting weird for sure, and only she was aware of the reason. Others had no idea what she was up to and why she was telling them to flee.
Now that they had ceased fire, pup took the chance and decided to take them down, one by one.
Grhhhh~~!!
He made an intimidating sound and plunged towards the member holding the knife.
"Ron, be careful of that little devil!" Simon warned him beforehand.
Ron was the name of the member holding the knives before. He was holding the knife with its edge out, planning to stab the small pup on its back.
But then again, he wasn't aware of the Fenrir Blessings, and that was the last mistake of his life. The pup was at a distance of five meters from Ron. He was sure it would be sure kill and the end of that little devil. The tiny pup was moving toward his prey with the help of his small paws when suddenly, an ice blizzard formed out of nowhere.
And to everyone's astonishment, the blizzard didn't harm them in any way. Instead, it was getting concentrated around the pup. Judging from the view, Simon and the others figured out somehow that pup was attracting the blizzard towards him.
"Bad luck of that little devil," Ron muttered with sympathy.
They were getting ready to take Sk and leave that place when the blizzard became more violent, uprooting the trees around them.
"Return back to the camp. I will join you shortly with Sk."
The other two obeyed Simon's command and were heading towards the camp when Ron screeched out for some reason. The other member ahead of Ron turned around timorously to find his friend lying on the ground, with a sharp-edged ice piece piercing his stomach.
Blood was gushing out from his comrade's body, and he had no idea what to do in that situation. Whether to run away from the blizzard or save his wounded comrade. Before he could take any action, another piece of sharp ice came out of the blizzard and pierced him on his left thigh.
Aaah!!
Simon was trying to cover the distance between him and Sk when he heard the groans of his team members.
'Shit, shit, shit! Looks like something happened on their side.'
Unaware of the fact that his comrades were on the verge of death, Simon was trying his best to cross the blizzard and reach Sk on the other side.
Suddenly, the blizzard stopped, and the surrounding became silent again. Everyone's eyes were wide opened. Simon, Sk, Ron… None of them were able to believe their eyes.
The cute little pup was gone. It wasn't there anymore. And instead of it was standing a big white-furred wolf. It wasn't moving from its place nor attacking the killer of its family.
Simon was getting an ominous feeling: if they do not get out of that place, they will be slaughtered for sure. Judging from the figure of the wolf, it was approximately 2.8 meters in height. Similar to that of an Asian elephant.
One stomp, and they will be dead.
