Chapter 53 - Werewolf

He ran toward the group, wondering what kind of people they were. Before they entered his vision, the creatures that attacked them appeared in the corner of his eyes.

Name: No Name

Race: Vansen

Level: 15

Gender: Male

"What's that?" Albert widened his eyes, staring at the creatures.

Their appearance looked like a human but with orange skin. They all had blue hair and a white mask covering half of their faces while revealing their other half face.

They wore a white-colored shirt and short pants. Their height was similar to him, so he first thought they were similar to one-horned Onis.

They held a cleaver in their right hand and a knife on the other.

Since he had leveled up to 21, he shouldn't have any trouble in killing these monsters. What he needed to be careful of was their number.

He made a rough calculation and realized there were around 70 of them. If he were surrounded, it would be dangerous.

While running toward them, Albert finally saw the incoming group. There was only a single carriage coming toward them with a person controlling the horses.

Once again, he was reminded that this was another world.

The horses had a large horn on their forehead. They even had scales like that of a snake.

But the one that surprised him the most was the guy who drove the white-colored carriage.

Name: Yennex

Race: Werewolf

Level: 70

Gender: Male

Yennex had a humanoid body coupled with wolf ears and tail. He wore a white shirt and covered it with a black vest, looking like a butler.

When he saw Albert coming toward them, he frowned and asked with a low tone. "I'm sure you can hear me, right? What are you doing here?"

Albert flinched, realizing that demons indeed knew other demons' features. The werewolf seemed to know about his hearing feature, so Albert answered, "I was passing by and noticed this, so I thought about helping you."

Before the man could reply, Albert had already reached the Vansens side, preparing to launch an attack.

"Your help is appreciated, but there's no need for that…" Yennex replied and stood up. Before they arrived, he even had time to turn around and said, "Young Lord, there is a disturbance here, and I shall take care of it."

The middle-aged guy immediately jumped into the Vansens. His claws extended as Yennex waved his hand from the right.

"Moon Claw."

Suddenly, white light shone from his nails before it flew, forming a crescent shape light that sliced multiple Vanses in an instant.

They didn't even have the chance to block or attack him before twenty of them died.

"Well, that's too strong for them, I guess." Yennex furrowed his eyebrows.

Albert was shocked by his power, but he was already too close to stop. Even the Vanses started noticing him and some of them came at him.

Albert clicked his tongue and waved his Bonk Bat. "Swift Bonk."

Bonk.

Two Vansens flew into the air with their right arms bent in a weird way.

Albert was surprised that he couldn't kill the Vansens even though he had used his Bonk Bites to utilize his Swift Bonk.

'What? Is this the gap between a level 70 werewolf and me?' Albert widened his eyes, not expecting that their gap was so big.

Another two Vansens emerged from his right and plunged their knives onto him.

Albert skillfully took a step to the left before swinging his bat as strong as he could.

"Bonk Smasher."

Finally, one of the Vansens died with their head crushed. However, it required all his strength to do something like that. And the Vansen didn't have the time to block. If he had even one second to put that arm on the way, he wouldn't die.

'My strength… Have I overestimated my power?' Albert thought while gritting his teeth. He immediately raised his hand and summoned his Bonk Bat.

'Bonk Arrow.' Albert shouted inwardly as he released the Bonk Bat to the other Vansens.

Seeing the incoming Bonk Bat, the Vansen raised its cleaver and tried to stop it, but it was launched back because of the power generated from the bat.

Albert took that chance and hit the Vansen on the head with his Bonk Smasher, killing it.

After that, he moved toward the two Vansens whose arms were broken and struck them with a stronger attack.

'Bonk Discharge!'

The two Vansens managed to raise their cleaver to hit the Bonk Bat, but Albert's bat released lightning from it, boosting its original power.

The cleavers ended up getting knocked away as the bat hit their heads, killing them.

With this, he managed to kill two Vansens in one go. After that, he raised his vision and realized that Yennex had killed the last six Vansens within three seconds.

In that instant, he dropped his jaw to the ground, realizing he shouldn't have done it. And now he had gotten entangled with this party, making him wonder what they were planning to do.

After all, Yennex might kill him.

As if noticing Albert's worry, Yennex turned around and said, "I already told you that you didn't need to care, but…"

Albert gulped down, waiting for the next sentence that came two seconds later. He never thought that waiting for someone to speak could make him shiver.

"I will need to ask someone first." Yennex stopped for a moment and turned around, walking to the white carriage.

He opened the door and asked, "Young Lord. There is—."

Before he finished, a young man's voice echoed in everyone's ears.

"I know. I have heard everything from inside the carriage. Our werewolf race respects two things. What are they?" The childish voice raised a question.

Yennex answered without hesitation. "Strength and Courage."

"He possesses the first one… Although it's small, it's something considerable. As for the second one, as he already said, he was going to help us, so it wasn't right if we made it hard for him."

"Yes, Sir. So, what would you like to do to him?"

Suddenly, Yennex took a step back and bowed his head.

A seemingly ten years old kid suddenly came out of the carriage with a smile on his face. He had a humanoid body with wolf ears and tail. However, unlike the silver-colored fur the middle-aged man had, the boy's were gold.

He had a white shirt, vest, and pants, making a contrast with his golden fur. However, Albert couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw the boy's status.

Name: Yale Te Pride

Race: Werewolf

Level: 45

Gender: Male

He looked like a kid, but his strength was unfathomable, making him realize that his eyes had been blinded because of Lustville Town's standard.

He gulped down, wondering what the young man wanted him to do. After all, he didn't have the strength to oppose them.

"I have smelled something unique from you!" The kid raised his head with a smug smile, saying to Albert. "To think I could see someone releasing a Lightning Power after using a spell that is supposed to have no element.

"Although your strength is not powerful yet, you seem to be unique." The kid smirked and asked, "Since you're traveling, where are you going?"

Albert took a step back, wondering whether this kid wanted something from him or not. After a few seconds of consideration, Albert replied, "I'm planning to go to Borsoli Town before making my way to the Gluttony Kingdom."

"Hmm?" The boy raised his eyebrows and said, "Surprisingly, our goal aligns!"

"Young Lord…" Yennex frowned.

"What? You want to oppose my decision? Father has thrown me away by using this mission as an excuse, so you are free to leave me behind as well."

"How can I?" Yennex hurriedly corrected his words. "I won't ever leave you behind."

"If you don't, then shut up for a while. I need to talk with this guy." Yale replied while glancing at Albert. "What you have shown is something unique, so I'm planning to ask you something about this. In exchange, I will bring you to Borsoli Town. How's that?"

Albert flinched, feeling suspicious of this boy.

"Oh, you don't need to be afraid of me… This is the first time I see someone like me." The boy smiled and raised both hands. "Normally, a person can only have one element in their body and you're called an anomaly if you have two. Some even call it a curse."

Suddenly, a golden light started shining on his right hand and a dark flame emerged from the other. "And yes, I am also an anomaly. It's rare to find someone like us, so I'm planning to ask you about your experience and other stuff.

"I just want to know the experience of those who have the same fate as me." Yale thought for a moment and widened his eyes. "Ah, right. I forgot to introduce myself. I am Yale de Pride, Pride Kingdom's Sixth Prince.

"I am supposed to only have this light as my element, but I have another one, making other people think I'm cursed, considering black is a cursed color for us, Silver Werewolf."

"That…" Albert looked down, contemplating whether he should accept or not. Still, when Yale introduced himself as a prince, Albert was wondering whether he should kneel or not.

On Earth, he didn't have any memory of kneeling in front of a prince, so this made him hesitant. But considering the world's technology level, he thought he should kneel.

Hence, Albert lowered his body, preparing to kneel, only to be stopped by Yale's voice.

"You don't need to do that. As I said, I am cursed and thrown away by my family. Even though I still have my title, it doesn't really matter as long as I can have someone to talk to."

The few last words somehow struck his heart. "Someone to talk to" was a strong thing for Albert.

In that instant, he straightened his back and agreed. "Yes. I am honored to talk with you."

"That's good!" Yale made a big smile as he seemed to be content with the current development. He glanced at Yennex and asked, "Is there a problem with this?"

"No." Yennex had understood Yale's goal. He had been taking care of him since he was a child, so he knew his burden. Seeing Yale so happy, Yennex had no heart to complain.

At the very least, there was someone with the same circumstances that he could share his experience with.

"In that case, he can talk to you in the dri—!'

Before he finished, Yale snarled. "What driver seat? Since we're going to talk, he's going with me."

"But you are…"

"This is just an empty title. Who cares! If not because you were the one driving the carriage, I would have you inside." Yale pouted. "And it's not like his strength to be stronger than mine."

Seeing Yale being so adamant, Yennex let out a long sigh and nodded. "I understand."

Albert didn't know what to say regarding his strength. After all, he felt weird being looked down on by a kid, especially when it was all true.

Yennex finally opened the door of the carriage again and extended his hand, asking them to come in.

Yale didn't hesitate and entered the carriage, sitting in his previous seat.

On the other hand, Albert was observing the interior first as this was the first time he saw a carriage like this.

Inside, he found two long couches facing each other. Their color was white, and they looked comfortable.

However, the space inside didn't seem to be that big. He even thought the space was only half of his car.

"What are you doing? Come in! We have a long way to cover." Yale shouted while Yennex glared at him as if telling Albert not to make his Young Lord wait.

After a moment of hesitation, Albert hurriedly entered the carriage with Yennex taking care of his bag on the driver seat outside the carriage.

They soon then continued their journey to Borsoli Town.
