Chapter 410 The Shadow Wolf Clan
Asher walked towards his home with a smile. He had completed all the missions and finally thought of spending time with his family.
But he suddenly saw a woman coming out of the house. His wife.
And before he could even ask her anything she appeared next to him as if she Teleported. And that was what she actually did.
"What's the matter." He asked her calmly.
"I can't find Orion. And I found this latter in our home." She said showing him the letter she had in her hand.
And looking at the letter Asher's eyes widened. This was the first time he was losing his composure.
- Hello members of the Heavenly wolf family or whoever you are. if you want to see your kid alive then come to the dark forest.
-And you can bring anyone with you. I don't care, the more the merrier.
He could clearly feel that whoever sent this clearly had the intention to mock him.
'And looks like the one who sent this letter is an assassin too. And a high-tire assassin.' He could sense that whoever sent this letter tried their very best to remove their presence from the letter but it was futile in front of him.
He could sense the faint presence of the Red clan and after pondering about it he concluded.
'The culprit forced someone from the red clan to write this letter. And then try their level best to remove the presence.' A smile appeared on his face and in the next movement, he quickly used his mana and covered the letter with it.
The presence of the letter disappeared as if no one even touched it.
***********
"Hey! I have come here! Where are you." Mike exclaimed looking around the forest. He was waiting for the kidnapper of Orion to show up.
And suddenly he spotted a shadow. The shadow was coming closer and soon Mike was able to see his face clearly.
It was a very pale face as if the person was sick. He was a skinny male with blue hair, Red eyes, and Red bat wings attached to his back.
"You aren't the one who's the father of that kid."
Looking at him Mike spoke. "you see the father of that kid is a very big coward. And I'm that kid's uncle so I came to save him. Now give me the kid." Killing intent flashed in his eyes as he looked at the demi-human.
He then closed his eyes which confused the member of the Red clan.
"Don't try something funny." He said with a serious expression looking towards Mike but didn't receive any response from him.
'I sense dark energy. That means death crows are involved, but this presence... The shadow wolf bastards are part of this ambush too.' He gritted his teeth after thinking about this. After all Shadow Wolves, we're one of the biggest enemies of the heavenly wolf family, and on top of that, they had a supreme celestial's blessing too.
'This matter is much more serious than I thought.' He suddenly clenched his fist and it looked like the space around the demi-human wrapped around his neck trying to choke him to death.
He gritted his teeth as blood dripped from his lips. 'Special magic!' He exclaimed.
Space and time. These two elements were the hardest to control, as even using the simplest move of this magic cost an abundant amount of mana. Such a freaky amount of mana that even a being who is level 100 would have to sacrifice their life force to use it.
Suddenly many more shadows appeared. They were probably about a hundred of them that were here to claim Mike's life.
Soon their figure became clear. There were about fifteen of them who looked human except for the fact that they had crow beaks and pitch-black crow wings attached to their back.
And the other five too looked human except for the fact that they had black-furred wolf ears and black-furred wolf tails.
Any other person would think that these were demi-humans but mike knew they weren't.
"Hand us the kid and I promise the heavenly wolf family will forget something such as this ever happened," Mile said but the ones in front of him looked at him with killing intent.
One of the crows quickly washed towards him but once again it looked as if space wrapped around him and his time the crow exploded.
Looking at this the others became angry but one of the mature-looking wolves stopped them.
He then looked at Mike directing a lot of his killing intent toward him. "If you dare to kill anyone else over here then you'll die a painful death. Everyone you know will die a painful death. You will see living hel-" Before he could complete his sentence one of the wolves busted into million pieces.
"Well, you should know one thing. I keep my word."
"Well, if you do, that would be a problem," Mike said as killing intent flashed in his eyes.
Mike quickly activated his skill, but before space could even wrap around the mature wolf he disappeared and reappeared behind Mike and tried to strike him with his punch but Mike quickly crossed both his arms saving himself from the impact.
Mike quickly channelled a lot of his strength and mana to his arm, launching it towards the shadow wolf, but an Ashey black shadow quickly rose in front of him defending the wolf from the punch.
In the next second, the wolf quickly created two shadow swords and tried to strike Mike but he quickly manipulated the space, using it as a shield.
He once again tried to kill the wolf using his space manipulation but the wolf once again disappeared and reappeared behind him.
And this time the remaining seventeen too joined the battle.
Looking at the seriousness of the battle he quickly left the bat demi human's neck who, ran away like a coward for his life.
But that was least of his concern. From what he could sense the mature wolf seemed to be above level 200.
"Say the location of the hidden village of the heavenly wolf family. Your and the people close to you, death will be a little less painful" Said the shadow wolf but Mike didn't care.
Four of his fingers connected and with a swift movement, he performed a horizontal slash.
Two death crows were slashed in half due to this move.
And others were surprised. They were practically attacking him from all directions but he was able to dodge their move very easily.
The mature shadow wolf too was very surprised. His dual sword art looked like it was a mess. It looked as if it was very random yet very deadly.
But still, somehow Mike didn't have a single scratch on his body.
'I think he has an affinity to time too. He must be using future sight or something like that.' He thought and, according to him if that was the truth then it was terrifying.
When a person used any one of these two they were practically breaking the world's law.
And to break a world's law, even a high-tier celestial who specialized in using mana would struggle to break the world's law. Much less this mortal wolf.
'He's not a celestial which means he's not a direct descendant.' Unlike wolf God shin a supreme celestial who practically blessed all the white wolves when he was alive some supreme celestial only bless a particular bloodline of a certain race.
"You should just surrender. Shadow wolf clan can make use of someone like you."
historical
-"Maybe they can use me too. Right?" Suddenly these words were whispered in his ears in a chilly voice, which sent chills down his spine.
After a long time, he was feeling scared.
Next movement he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.
"Hahahah! Do you think your shadow wolves are God-tier assassins? You all are just joke in front of him." Mike mocked looking at the shocked Shadow wolf.
After all his leader, was practically invisible to their senses. This was something they felt that only their head could achieve.
And soon blood bath began. It was as if they were blind.
They looked everywhere to search for this opponent but they couldn't find him.
One of the shadow wolves spread his mana to analyze his surrounding better, but it was futile. The next second his head was decapitated.
They felt as if they were against the God of assassins.
"Don't! Don't come near me!" One of the crows said as he felt breeze passing by him, but it actually turned out to be a breeze.
"..."
"..."
And then suddenly. His body was sliced into a million, no, into a billion pieces. His flesh wasn't even visible and it just looked like blood splattered as his flesh disappeared.
Others gulped a large amount of saliva looking at the scene.
*Cough!* *Cough!* The mature-looking shadow wolf was the only one who was able to survive after taking one of the strikes of this assassin.
He gritted his teeth as blood flowed through his mouth. 'Whoever this is, how the hell on earth is he so strong! Is he the current head of the heavenly wolf family? No, I highly doubt it!'
His eyes widened as his vision became clear after taking that hit. Everyone except mike and him was on the ground decapitated. And many bodies weren't even present.
Looking at the bloodied scene he had the urge to kill himself. He was pretty sure that whoever did this could easily kill him. The main reason he didn't was to get the location of the place where the shadow wolves were living.
He quickly used shadow manipulation, creating a shadow sword and trying to slice his head.
But before he could do that he suddenly felt a grip on his arm.
He quickly looked towards the owner of the arm. His eyes met with Asher's dull eyes which scared him to his soul.
The shadow beneath him took the shape of a sharp chain which he immediately launched towards Asher but the next second he disappeared.
He quickly tried to stand up but.*Thud*
But his legs were chopped. 'What!?' And the most shocking thing to him was that he didn't even feel the pain.
He quickly used his skill of shadow travel. The shadow beneath him quickly sucked him inside.
,*Cr...Crack* And to his despair a crack appeared and spread like a spider web.
Soon the space broke and a vascular arm grabbed his neck pulling him outside.
Mike looked at the Shadow wolf and grinned.
"I know you aren't afraid of death or painful death or some shit like that. I will get straight to the point. Give us the child."
As he heard what Mike said a twisted smile appeared on his face.
"Haha haha haha haha haha haha haha haha *Cough!* *Cough!*" he coughed a lot of blood as he continued to laugh without a care about the world.
And looking at him with an irritated expression Mike quickly a hard punch to his chest. As the result, he started to cough even more loudly and even more, blood flowed from his mouth.
"I am sure *Cough!* You will never *Cough!* See the *Bang*!" Before he could even finish his sentence, Asher punched his face breaking some of his teeth and his jaws.
"Don't dare to finish what you were saying or you'll be finished." Asher threatened as he released a lot of killing intent.
"Let's go away from here for now," Asher said looking towards mike.
"We will investigate him in our base. Let's see if he can sprout that nonsense over there." Looking towards the shadow wolf Asher said
Mike nodded his head as he raised his palm and clenched the empty space.
Many cracks appeared and then soon the space distorted and covered them soon disappeared.
"Well, they failed. And the opponent is too strong but foolish. They didn't check if there was anyone else felt." And not long after a voice echoed.
"You were saying something." a voice echoed in his ears due to which his eyes widened.
