Chapter 334: The First Upload (V): Werewolf
Chapter 334: The First Upload (V): Werewolf
There was no time to waste contemplating whether the big wolfy that just blasted out of its thousand-year amber prison would leave them alone or just greet them as comrades; seeing as it was only able to be free due to their intervention. Unfortunately, there was nothing to it as pure instinct and reflex helped Rezar evade the claw strike that was sent to his neck. He took a step back, evading the silver metallic claws with only a hair's breadth of space left. But that wasn't enough as the momentum of the strike turned the giant werewolf enough to slap its furry tail into Rezar's chest.
And god did it hurt! It felt nothing like a tail and everything like a sledge hammer as he was blasted backwards. Rezar stretched out his hand to grab a hold of Screet in the process and dug his foot into the ground. Whatever material the floor was made off, it withstood the force or Rezar digging his heels in as a loud squealing sound was heard. But Rezar was able to arrest his momentum, but that second was enough for the werewolf to appear in front of him again, looking to finish what it had started, but Rezar was ready this time.
[Dragon's Roar]
Rezar didn't have to open his mouth as an apparition of a dragon appeared behind him with its jaws opened wide. A roar of epic proportions was released, it was so powerful that the air itself was displaced by the sound and the werewolf was rooted in place in shock for a second before it was blasted backwards. its body crashed to the ground, rolling a couple of times roughly with a few snaps heard to signify the sounds of its bones getting broken. No one had to tell that werewolves were more resilient and faster than vampires, so for bones to be snapping that way, Rezar shuddered to imagine what it would be like if he was the one on the receiving end of that skill.
His throat itched a bit, he was not the one that had roared but the apparition of a dragon and yet he felt as if he had screamed himself hoarse. But be that as it may this fight was just beginning, it was time to kick things up a notch. Rezar smiled slowly as he turned his head to Screet who noticed the wild smile on the face of his master, but it didn't matter how many times the undead Mole-man shook his head no, his master was not backing down from this fight.
The werewolf got back up to his feet. His half wolf, half man form standing on hind legs stretched itself as he raised his head up to howl to the roof. His eyes were red with rage, and his form turned illusory, literally breaking the sound barrier as he rushed towards Rezar. But Rezar was just a little bit slower than he was, but given the distance he had enough to react; and my what a reaction it was.
The only thing Screet could hear was the sound of the wind whooshing in his ears and his skin that was pulled taut by the air resistance. He was like a frisking bullet and it was only through sheer instinct that he was able to cover himself with a barrier. And not a second too late as those gleaming silver claws, not coated with a red sheen slashed through the air, and everywhere they passed through it seemed as if reality was being cut through. The claws crashed into the barrier that he had wrapped around his body and a sound akin to glass getting scratched filled the entire chamber as Screet was blasted back, with his barrier for the first time ever; sporting cracks so deep and wide air could seep into it.

But that was just a momentary distraction for the werewolf, Rezar knew that Screet would rely on his barrier having a lot of faith in his first undead. And indeed the werewolf had slowed down to make sure it struck just hard as it could. Rezar had the feeling he could strike a lot harder as he showed up in front of the werewolf with a well-placed upper cut that utilized all of his vampiric strength. He felt jaw break under his knuckles just as a few of them also shattered and the werewolf took a short trip into the air, head first towards the ceiling.
Rezar jumped up leaving a sonic boom behind, the damage to his knuckles already healed the very moment he took off. The werewolf was not so injured that it would let its head smash into the ceiling. It skillfully twirled its body in the air and let its feet meet the ceiling instead, hanging there for a second before building power in its legs and blasting downwards towards the approaching Rezar. Vita Gratis seemed to sing out loud in anticipation, vibrating in the hands of her master, as the tension of this fight built up by the second.
[Mana Blade]
"Blood moon Slash!!"
*Boooooom! *
The werewolf growled out his technique as blade met claw in an epic explosion of energy. They were blasted backwards rom each other; each being thrown backwards in the direction they just came from. The werewolf crashed into the ceiling leaving an ugly bloody spot on it, almost as if someone had thrown a ripe tomato at it. Rezar on the other hand was no faring any better as he was smashed to the ground in much the same manner, blood and guts blasted out of his body like the werewolf. For a few second everything went black, but soon enough clarity returned as his brained healed and the blood that was out of his body was replenished at an extremely fast rate.
Gravity took over and the werewolf feel to the ground with no control over his body. he managed to land, but it was incredibly awkward as he fell back and quickly healed up, making sure to keep his eyes on Rezar who on the other hand was contemplating just how bloody hard this building actually was. If this fight happened outside, heck even with all those hard diamonds and whatnot around they would have been able to cushion the impacts somewhat, but no, apart from his blood all over the ground there wasn't even a single scratch on it. Well he would have enough time to investigate the damn building, if he survives this blood werewolf.

Rezar had never used all of his skills at once like this, and it was extremely draining as he felt himself wobble on his way back up to his feet. He shook his head as both his blood and that of the werewolf gathered in a large pool in the air above his head. Rezar noticed that for some reason the werewolf and vampire blood were repelling each other, to the point that his blood was actually hissing and evaporating from the contact it had with the werewolf. Which is to simply say that this werewolf was probably the bane of vampires.
Rezar has not gotten cut or injured from the werewolf's attacks so far, he quickly reaffirmed it within himself to make sure those jaws and claws were kept far away from him as possible. He split Vita Gratia into two blades as the blue glow of mana coating it turned into a deep silver burn from the addition of his soul. The skeletons his summoned were about a 100, and they were arranged behind Rezar like an army following behind their general. They weren't exactly strong, but they were enough to hinder the wolf a bit and restrict his movement. Rezar twirled both blades in the air as he pointed them in the direction of the werewolf as I to say 'bring it on!'.
The reply he would get however was the wolf growling loudly as his bones began to creek and shake. His already 7-foot-tall frame shot up to 9 foot as he became more like a wolf standing on hind legs than a wolf man. He got down on all fours and he kept on growing until a ten-foot-tall and fifteen-foot-long grey and white wolf was standing in front of Rezar with blood and death in its eyes. From where he was standing Rezar could feel it, the bloody wolf had cheated and upgraded its power. It was now twice as strong and as fast as before. Rezar turned around to check, but Screet was nowhere to be found. Rezar narrowed his eyes because Screet was not the kind of person to abandon his master; regardless of the odds.
"Grrrrr Vampire!!" the massive wolf growled out as his fur bristled in anger. Rezar turned back towards him and replied with a rather sheepish look on his face.
"Umm Werewolf?"
"Awooooooooooooooooo!"
"Fuck it! If you want to go all out, then damn you we gon go all out you mangy Mutt! DRAGON SOUL!"
"Rooooooooaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrr!!"
