Chapter 37: Fenrir's Growth
The alien spun its body, using the centrifugal force to hit Fenrir with the tree. Unfortunately, Fenrir had been using all this time to approach him.
With this timing and position, the alien wasn't fast enough to hit him.
Fenrir bit the alien's neck and ripped it apart. However, he noticed that the alien's flesh was much harder compared to any aliens that he had faced so far. His teeth weren't able to reach as deep as he originally thought, so the wound wasn't that big of a deal for the alien. In fact, it had begun recovering.
The alien continued its swing, forcing Fenrir to use the alien's body to jump away.
Not planning to let Fenrir get away, the alien stopped the spin and swung the tree like it was a blade, smashing Fenrir.
Fortunately, Fenrir managed to tilt its body slightly so that his tail could reach the tree first. He slashed a fourth of the tree and slapped it toward the alien.
The alien dropped the tree almost immediately and caught this small trunk. To Fenrir's surprise, the alien was actually throwing this trunk toward the other three.
"!!!" Fenrir leaped as quickly as possible and intercepted the trunk on the way. 'It seems that I have underestimated the juvenile class alien. To think that it's smart enough to target the weakest link first...'
Because he had to stop the trunk, the alien could use that time to reach Fenrir.
'Oh, this is bad.' Fenrir thought as he raised his hand, finding the alien had clasped both hands together and slammed them down.
Fenrir's head got knocked down to the ground with so much force that the ground around it cracked.
"Kh." Fenrir gritted his teeth, enduring the pain. After that, he gathered his Ena on his right paw and slapped the alien's arm.
If it were Alisha, she would have shredded the arm completely. However, even though it wasn't as strong, the force Fenrir generated was enough to bend the arm in a different direction.
"Hahaha. This is good. It's been a while since I last bled. Even though it's not as powerful, your power is still able to break through my super durability." Fenrir grinned as he raised his head.
Fenrir altered the angle a little bit and rushed as fast as he could. He actually leaped into the air, placing himself in the trunk's trajectory.
The trunk launched him away as his body slid on the ground and crashed into a tree.
Fenrir struggled to get up after receiving that hit. Noticing that Fenrir was about to die, the alien dashed to him to deliver the killing blow.
When facing the punch that would kill him, Fenrir smiled. All of a sudden, he got up as if he wasn't injured. He avoided the punch and slapped the alien's face with the concentrated Ena around his paw.
The force sent the big alien flying as it crashed into four trees before completely stopping. Its jaw was broken after that single hit, but the body was still twitching.
'This is how we should do it, right? Faking my own injury so that he would focus on me. Just like how that brat used the power of bullshit to get what he wanted...' Fenrir smirked. He repeated what Nathan said to him at that time, "It's your fault for misunderstanding, idiot!"
Fenrir didn't realize it yet, but the biggest development he had in this world was not Alisha's technique that he imitated. It was his experience with Nathan, allowing the prideful Fenrir to be calmer and more cunning.
Nathan didn't know what was going on up there, but he sure knew that Fenrir must be having a blast.
"I can't lose." Nathan muttered as he blocked the punch of the alien in front of her. The other alien leaped into the air and used its momentum to pin him down to the ground.
Nathan let the alien bite his glove. Thankfully, the gloves had a thin layer of metal that resisted the jaw strength of this alien easily.
After that, he kicked the alien into the air as the other alien was about to smack him from the side.
Nathan rolled two times before using Deadly Claw to slice the alien from the side. The alien had no choice but to block it, giving Nathan enough time to stand up.
However, just as he was on his knee, he suddenly heard the screams of the aliens coming from a different direction.
"Ah shit."
