Chapter 79 - 78. Face To Face

In the forest of the Magic Dimension, Glen was outnumbered by the werewolves. Even without taking into account the countdown which didn't matter since he had shifted, he needed to get rid of them as soon as possible to find Eden.

Before he got to the magic dimension, the omega had just wobbled and seemed in distress. He needed to get rid of them. His instincts as an alpha were screaming at him to find his mate as soon as possible.

The alpha glared at the werewolves that surrounded him. He bared his teeth looking at the whips of energy that pierced their bodies through. He had no other choice.

Glen let out his pheromones and a smirk appeared on his face when he saw the flinched werewolves. Some of them tried to recoil, but the whips forced them to hold their position.

'I guess they already know what's going to happen to them, huh?" Glen thought.

The black and white wolf swooped down on the werewolves facing him. He had almost arrived when he felt behind him that a werewolf had just pounced and intended to attack him from behind.

Glen waited until the enemy was almost upon him and turned to grab him in his maw. The movement dragged them both to the ground where Glen easily won the battle by force and ripped the werewolf's head off its body before resuming his run.

All the werewolves in line were waiting to pounce on him all at once. It was the only way to compete. Or so they thought. The reality of what happened was different.

Once Glen was within reach, they strode to him in a melee of werewolves and wolves who had only one goal, to sink fangs and claws into the flesh of the alpha without giving him any break.

Glen was on the icy, muddy ground. There wasn't a single one of his members that wasn't mobbed by his adversaries. However, even with their number, none of them managed to get beyond his fur and pierce his flesh.

Glen bit the neck of a wolf that was trying to rip off one of his legs and threw him away. The body hit a tree, breaking its trunk before falling to the ground.

He didn't even have time to rejoice as the others continued to attack him. With a huff, the alpha launched his claws which shredded the bodies of three werewolves which immediately disappeared in a cloud of smoke. Seeing this, the dominant continued and chained the claw strikes, piercing, lacerating, slicing through the werewolves that came upon him like a living tide.

After several minutes, the alpha lowered his arm, and once the black fog cleared, he scanned around to see if the number of enemies had diminished. When he saw that they kept coming in waves from the forest, Glen groaned. He bit the arm of whoever was trying to hit him.

With a sharp movement, he pulled the arm of the werewolf which was detached from his body with the sound of broken bone and flesh.

The opponent staggered back, but the whips forced him to move back towards Glen. The alpha turned his head, the werewolves kept coming without interruption. It was as if they wanted to keep him at bay. Then the ansewer struck him.

These creatures were trying to buy time by keeping him occupied. The werewolves were there to distract him, not to fight him. After all, the level was far too low for them to be a threat.

He had to find Eden at all costs and as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, the only way he knew was to eliminate them all and for that, he needed a plan.

The first thing was to get out of the forest and find a point high up where he could see the enemies coming at him effortlessly.

The dominant turned away and started to run. He had traveled just a few meters, slaloming to avoid trees and opponents who were still trying to attack him, when a screen appeared in front of his eyes.

[Protect the Chosen to resume the trial of the Omega's mark.]

Glen gritted his teeth. He had no idea where his omega was. His mate had to be in the magic dimension, probably in the white room otherwise all the werewolves wouldn't come to him. What was the fastest way to get rid of them? As if to answer his question, the message on his screen changed.

[Do you want to activate the Divine Class Skill 'Domination'? YES/NO]

Domination? When he saw the detail of what the skill  was, his mouth opened, revealing his sharp fangs.

Glen accelerated. He continued to run like this for a few minutes. Luckily, with his stats maxed out, no one could match his speed, and he easily outpaced them.

The dominant finally spotted what he was looking for. A small deforested hill with an unobstructed view of its surroundings. He gave the last push to get to the top and activated the skill. When he finally reached his destination, he skidded slightly to stop his course and spun to turn back.

'YES' thought the alpha in response to the screen that had remained in front of him all this time.

[Skill 'Domination' is now activated.]

Glen felt a sense of power surge through him. He let out his pheromones. When the alpha's pheromones reached the werewolves which were running to the top of the hill, they all stopped and crumbled to the ground gagging and gasping. The alpha fixed his gaze on whoever was closest to him. His tongue came out of his mouth and went over his fangs to lick them. A low growl rose from his throat as he approached without taking his eyes off the creature.

The werewolf's entire body shook with fear from Glen's pheromones. None of its muscles was able to move. All he could do was wait for the moment when the dominant was going to swoop down on him.

Even the energy whips that attempted to move the creature's body could do nothing against the crippling effect of the dominance exerted over it.

Although created by magic, werewolves in the magic dimension responded to the same primal instincts as true werewolves. The Domination skill was naturally possessed by all alphas. The effect depended on the strength of the alpha, however, more than just a threatening message, the purpose was to paralyze the opponent with fear. With Glen's power, it was as if his body was held in place by a force at least a hundred times greater than his own, leaving him desperate and helpless.

The werewolf who was trembling under the gaze of the alpha, like all the others around, had no way to resist.

The werewolf gasped and the second after the wolf's jaws grabbed his neck to break it before shaking the body sideways to separate trunk and head. When the cloud of smoke cleared, Glen let out a howl.

He then turned to look around and see the hundreds of werewolves on the ground as more in the distance continued to arrive.

Since he had no choice, he was going to kill them all, one by one, and return to his mate.

The execution of the werewolves rendered powerless against him felt endless. The alpha even started to wonder if the person in control had figured out a way for the enemies to come at him infinitely.

Then, the last werewolf dissipated after he ripped open his abdomen to rip out his heart. At the same time, he recognized the sensation that sucked away. Glen closed his eyes then opened them.

In front of him, the white of the chamber which was immaculate when he first came, was now tainted by thousands of energy whips. The alpha recognized the long, narrow canals he had first seen running through his body, draining him of his strength. These were the same whips that controlled the werewolves he just fought against.

Glen turned his head to look around the room and look for Eden. His eyes landed on a black shape beside which he spotted a silhouette. A woman was standing and staring angrily at a black energy dome.

As the energy that made up the dome moved, the dominant caught a glimpse of a golden sheen and needed no more to understand the situation.

The wolf's paws sank into the ground and muscles bulged, ready to unleash their full strength. Glen took a swing and, without bothering to dodge the whips, leaped towards the woman who turned her head at the last moment, before dissipating.

Glen clenched his fangs and corrected his trajectory to cushion his fall now that he could no longer land on the unknown woman and shred her body as he originally intended.

He slipped slightly and got back on his feet. When he looked around, a mass of black energy the size of a short man was taking shape in front of him.

In the room, he heard a familiar voice. The one he heard echoing whenever his bloodlust triggered. A burst of mocking and provocative laughter bounced off the walls as the body of a young woman took shape.

Dark skin, a thin face, a pale pink mouth, deep black almond eyes, and a beauty that, if she didn't look terrifying, would be a blight on the heart of anyone. The long black hair that extended into long whips of energy made Glen realize that he was facing the person who had cursed him.

The alpha growled menacingly when his ears picked up a low whimper. He turned his head and his eyes fell on Eden. The omega was lying on the ground, panting and sweating profusely. He was in the center of a golden light cupola and as Glen wondered what it could be, the system flashed him a screen.

[Warning

The Chosen One has already used 5/5 of his Moon Protection Mark. Remains available: 0

Remaining time before the protective dome disappears. 37 minutes 42 seconds.

Protect the Chosen to resume the trial of the Omega's mark.]

Thirty-seven minutes. Each use of the Moon Protection mark lasted one hour and he had five of them. This means that it took almost five hours to get rid of the werewolves controlled by this witch. A wave of anger washed over him.

Another screen popped up automatically, replacing the other to show him Eden's stats. He took the time to look at him while keeping an eye on the witch in front of him.

Seeing the last line, the alpha's head snapped to Eden. The witch was trying to curse his mate, taking advantage of the fact that he had already almost exhausted all his defenses. The laughter that continued to echo in his head made his anger swell, but the alpha controlled himself. Now was not the time to explode. His omega's life was in danger. He had to keep a cool head.

'YES'

Right after he thought that again the dashboard popped up in front of him with a new message.

[Congratulations. You have unlocked the skill Fated Bond (Class Divine).

'YES' All the time he interacted with the system, Glen kept an eye out for the witch who continued to taunt him from afar. Her laughter continued to explode from time to time. However, he sensed that she was getting impatient.

[HP restored successfully.]

Glen looked away from the screen and stared at his mate. Eden's breathing had returned to normal. The dominant let out the breath he hadn't realized he had been holding.

"What did you do? How did you protect the King from my attack? It was the same with. You are a werewolf, you can't use magic, how did you do it?"

She narrowed her eyes and the energy whips scattered around the room came together in an instant and coalesced to form dozens of spears with the tips facing Glen and Eden.

"Let's see if you can fight back that too," Light said with a smug smirk just before the spears kicked into motion and streaked across the room.
