With the new skill and its synergies Hiro wanted to know how far he could take the life-steal. Hiro loved life-steal builds in RPGs as those allowed the feeling of dancing on the line of life and death.

Excited at the prospect Hiro found himself liking his new Limit skill a lot. As he intended take as much damage as he can for his wives, better healing abilities would always be a plus in his book.

Even though [Integrity of the Faithful] healed his wound, it increased the pain so unless absolutely necessary Hiro didn't want to use it. On the flip side, Hiro expected his Masochism to evolve leaps when he starts using it for real.

If the same effect can be retrieved by using [Butcher] all the better, but in order to heal he needed to be damaged. And Hiro didn't like harming himself. He did like however dishing back as much as he got.

"Come little doggies, I need you all to experiment with me."

The wolves, different from before approached slowly from separate directions. Hiro believed this may be because of the Alpha's commands. The Alpha on the other hand circled around him at a distance most probably looking right time to strike. The remaining five wolves moved to shrink the space Hiro could still move in.

Wolf packs were known for their group tactics, the pack itself operated as one being. Some confused the target, others ensured the prey could not escape while the strongest had the responsibility of going for the kill.

However, No matter how intelligent beasts became, the farthest they would get is enhanced tactics. Humans beat every other species because they learned from the past, drew wisdom from those around them and made idea's inspired by their imaginations.

Thus it could be said that wolves no mater how smart, would remain mere animals. Only humans had the capacity to execute plans and ploys that were not easy to predict. The most complex plans required multiple factors and had layered facets , and Hiro preferred such plans most of the time.

The man knew what the wolves had in mind, or he could guess to a credible degree. Yet for his plans what they had in store served no purpose. For that reason like fish in front of a tasty looking bait, he bit the trap hook, line and sinker.

One of the wolves attacked his legs and uncommon to what he previously showed, Hiro's stance broke immediately. Due to the adrenaline coursing through the beasts and the instinct's honed through years of evolution, none of them questioned why such a simple attack worked.

A second wolf sank its teeth into Hiro's shoulder and used its large size to slam Hiro to the ground. A third chomped on his leg and while the last ripped apart a large piece of his other thigh.

The man wailed pitifully in pain as the wolves tore off pieces of his flesh in an assault from almost all directions. The animals inwardly cheered and grew even more excited the longer they heard Hiro's cries for help.

Contrary to the situation, the Alpha didn't go in for the kill no matter how perfect the circumstances became. It came to the point the Forest wolves started to grow impatient at their leaders cowardly antics.

Hiro already a bloody mess, now had bits and pieces of his bones out for display, the gruesome state of his injuries littered his entire body with bite wounds that looked extremely painful.

"Help! Help! Me Please! Anyone! I don't want to die!"

After years of killing humans, the canines learned a few words of human vocabulary. Help, please and die were words they knew by heart. Thus the moment the beasts heard those, they knew that the hunt has come to an end.

Yet the Alpha still didn't make the killing blow. Frustrated one of the forest wolves reached the end of its patience and leaped to deliver a bite to Hiro's throat. The condescending voice of the reincarnator then entered their ears.

"Tsk, fucking coward. I even acted like a pussy for you and you still didn't go in. Well whatever, five should be enough."

Hiro suddenly placed five "Flying Caltrops" on his shoulder. Due to the speed of his deployment, the forest wolf couldn't draw back in time and bit the weapons made from pure mana by mistake.

The weapons shredded the wolf's mouth as if he tried to give a hacksaw a blowjob. Unable to bear the pain the injured wolf fell to the ground in agony. The other predators aimed to attack again in order to keep Hiro down. However the reincarnator had other plans as he suddenly roll to the side.

While he did so, two spirit swords flew out of his chest and slammed into the mouth of the wolves attacking. One of the wolves managed to dodge, the other was not so lucky. The weapon embedded itself into the beasts throat which caused it to straighten its entire frame horizontally.

Hiro then charged that wolf and grabbed the Spirit sword and shouted "Straight Pierce!" Like a boat crossing the ocean waves, Hiro advanced forward while the wolf got gruesomely split into halves. like a vast body of water. The blood from the wolf halves splashed Hiro in large amounts.

The man then had his entire frame sizzle in extreme heat like he exited a sauna in the middle of winter. The wounds on his body closed or got cauterized with a small bit of flesh regenerating.

"Tsk, so it's just superficial damage. The flesh doesn't heal like [Integrity of the Faithful]. And here I was hoping it I could become like a vampire or something."

Hiro then noticed a large piece of wolf meat at the end of his Spirit sword. Eating the flesh of your enemies could be considered the cruelest things one can do to mess their minds up. Thinking along those lines Hiro took a big bite out of the meat and started to chew it. Surprisingly he got more than he bargained for.
