Chapter 39 20 Minutes Remaining, The Shadow Wolf Poison.
The man looked around him to see the earth cracking up and bursting with Larva all around him.
Even the other wolves had begun moving away from Sato and Erza since they didn't want to be burnt by the larva.
With his finger positioning his glasses, the man uttered, "So, you possess the eye too, I see,".
"Give him back to me." Erza voiced out, her hair dancing in the wind as the destruction around her began to intensify.
"You must have the idea that you have the upper hand here, but here's the thing, the only reason I haven't killed you yet… is because I still need you alive!" The man yelled.
A huge rush of black smoke showed up behind him and formed into multiple dark-looking shadow wolves that immediately charged at Erza.
Erza pointed her finger at them and began shooting out fast-moving icicles, but they proved useless.
The wolves turned into smoke and merged back together, once they had gotten close to Erza, they leaped to the sky in unison.
Forming into a huge shadow wolf, it was still in mid-air and was about to pounce on Erza.
Erza fired as many icicles as she could muster but no physical attack was affecting it, this left her in a state of panic.
The wolf was about to pounce on Erza when out of nowhere, a huge dark mist covered it up which caused it to fall to the ground right in front of her.
The wolf swarmed around, trying to escape the mist. it turned into dust and splitted into multiple wolves but it still couldn't escaped the dark mist.
The dark wolf howled in pain before its whole body began to fade into the mist with no sign of regeneration.

After a few minutes of fighting, the wolf was completely devoured by the mist. The dark mist returned to Sato's hand after it had finished with the wolf.
As soon as she whole dark mist had returned to his hand, Sato closed his fist with his eyes focused on Erza, 'That was close'.
Erza and the man had stunned looks on their faces as they looked at Sato who still had a casual look on his face.
'Did he just… destroy all my hounds with a single attack?... Who the hell is this guy?' The man thought to himself as he stared at Sato.
"Are you okay?" Sato asked Erza before standing beside her.
"How did you do that?" Erza raised a question, lifting Sato's hand and examining it to see where the mist came from.
"W..what are you doing?" Sato stammered.
"Be honest with me… what are you? there's no way a mare human to do something like that." Erza said with a serious look on her face.
Sato didn't reply, he was still trying to fight the embarrassment he was feeling from the way Erza was holding his hand close to her chest.
He could see a clear view of her cleavage and her beautiful face that was pulled close to his.
"Ah…emmm," Sato mumbled. He then suddenly sensed something coming from underneath where they stood.
"Jump!" Sato yelled, he grabbed Erza's hand and leaped to the sky only to encounter a vampire that suddenly turned up out of nowhere behind him.
The vampire kicked Sato in the arm which pushed him back and caused him to let go of Erza's hand.
She fell to the ground with a shadow wolf charging from the ground and biting her arm.
Grunting, Erza placed her other hand on the wolf's head and a bolt of straight lightning fell from the sky and landed on the wolf causing it to shatter.
Once the wolf was gone, Erza fell to the ground, flat on her stomach and she slowly started falling unconscious.
Green glowing streaks started showing on her arm and were slowly spreading to her shoulder, the streaks themselves were beating in accordance with her heartbeat.
Sato landed and slid on the ground with his eyes still set on Erza.
<<Notice…. Erza is in a critical state, heartbeat dangerously decreasing from heart poison, medical treatment needed urgently>>
'Heart poison?' Sato asked.
<<A bite from a shadow wolf has a large amount of Genio acid that links to the blood streams and weakens the victims heart beat>>
'You're telling me she was poisoned?'
<<Affirmative>>
<<Victims has 20 mins till heart completely weakens, cure is easy to conjure as I have come up with three possible remedies to fix this>>
'I see, I let my guard down, that's on me.' Sato muttered to himself, standing to her feet to see a vampire standing in front of him and also surrounded by wolves.
<<18 mins>>
"Hey Traveller, I've seen the power you possess, it's quite impressive… how about you join me," Phen uttered, placing his giant axe on his shoulder with a smug look on his face.
"Why are you here? You should be rounding up the Cat people." The wolfman said, using his hand to straighten his hat.
'I guess I have no choice, my mask isn't with, pretty sure the vampire knows my face already.' Sato said to himself, watching as Phen and the werewolf communicated.
"I was a bit distracted, you see." Phen replied, "A bug ruined the plan and the Cats escaped, call it fate but you know, can't be helped."
"The deal was, we take out the Duke's daughter and you gather more pawns, how could you fail such a simple task." The wolf man said, looking down at the vampire.
"No fret, there's another Village just south of here, I believe it belongs to some mermaids, I'll raid that to make up for the failure." Phen replied with a smirk.
<<15 mins>>
"Hey!"
Sato voiced out, catching the attention of both the vampire and wolf man. They both switched their attention to him as soon as Sato spoke.
"Does the traveler have something to say? Killing you is still on my list if only you'll be patient." Phen teased.
"Sorry boys, but here's the thing, I don't have time to waste, so answer me this, who is behind this little master plan of yours?" Sato asked with a foreshadowed expression.
The wolfman laughed, "You wanna who's behind what plan? Wow, you're stupid." He insulted.
"Is that a no then?" Sato asked silently.
"Okay, you're getting too cocky." Phen said, slamming his axe on the groove and walking slowly toward Sato.
Sighing, Sato sent a glare at them, causing a wide range of magic energy to whoosh out of his body.
The heavy wind blew all around the area, pushing all the wolves and the vampire back.
Sato raised his right arm to the sky, and a huge dark flame tornado began to form on his hand with his eyes glowing green.
