The wolves were thrown away at most tens of meters back, suffering concussive damage to their internal organs. And breaking a couple bones from a few wolves.
And before the unfortunate wolves could do anything, their shadows suddenly came to life and stretched out their hands, and binding the wolves that were heavily wounded.
Or those that could not struggle.
While a black flash of lightning flashed past David, and brought a rain of blood within the circles of the wolves. Those targeted being those that could still fight to an extent.
"Aw, owoo..."
"Aw aw aw..."
And the wolves could only cry out loud, yet did nothing to struggle at all. As for Esther, she let loose and killed wantonly without restraint, taking the life of one wolf after another.
David also casually finished off the helpless wolves that were bind by their own shadows, ending their misery with the blunt handle of his hammer.
He used it to piece through the hearts of the dying wolves. In just under ten minutes, all hundred wolves were killed off, and within a kilometer radius around the city, there would be nothing threatening for the city.
After a few more minutes, The Primordial Source sent out notifications to the duo about their kills.
[ Congratulations!! You have fought against an entire sentry of a pack of wolves ]
[ You have killed 87 Civilian Wolves. You have obtained 609 Life Essence units ]
[ You have obtained 13 Tier 1 Wolves. You have obtained 131 Life Essence units ]
[ You and your partners have each obtained 247 units of Life Essence ]
The couple casually ignored the notifications, and Esther checked the amount of Life Essence she had saved up since the beginning of the week.
[ Excess Life Essence: 1,322 units ]
She was already a Level 6 Shadow Speedster. But to Level up to Level 7, or all the way to Level 11 to become an Adept Realm Profession, she needed a lot of Life Essence.
She needed almost 5,000 units to just reach that level. While normally, a person only required 650 units of Life Essence to the do same.
Luckily, they were not in that much of a rush. Plus, there were not a lot of beings at their level so far, hence even as Level 6, they could still dominate.
Hell they could dominate even Advance Professions with their Hidden Classes, while just being Apprentice professions. Hence why they were still relaxed.
"Seems like there is a large pack up ahead." David said, and Esther nodded. He then continued, "The brat also did mention that there is terrifying monster within the circle of wolves that would be born in the near future."
"True." Esther nodded in agreement.
"A sentry guard of a hundred wolves. How many more wolves do you think the have within their pack?" She then further inquired. "Don't know. About a thousand?" David replied with a shrug.
He then added with a daring smile on his face, "Let's just prepare to fight at most ten thousand wolves."
"Let us." Esther smiled and together, the duo moved deeper into the wild, hoping to find more wolves to kill. And maybe even more flarizards to kill.

Within an Unknown Location
Within The World's Core
*** The Primordial Source ***
We have too much excess power, and because of that, the world is developing too slow. Or maybe we are getting impatient?
We might be.
Over 20% of the world has already become a part of us throughout the week, yet the rates are decreasing greatly. It would not even increase by 1% the coming day.
And not by 5% by the end of the second week. We might... not have this entire world within our grasp even after an entire year.
Slow.
Too slow.
So I presume we bring that idea to fruition. I believe it is but too soon? I believe not. I agree with us. Then it is decided? It is.
We have come to a decision, and decided to use the energy we have... to shatter the restraints this world has been laid with.
We will start by elevating the world into a... Realm.
Even if it is the lowest of all Realms, we still have to start up slow and steady. Within each passing week, we will elevate the world into a higher leveled Realm.
By the end of the year, this world should be capable of waking up the Seven Supremes, and creating a platform where even they... are nothing but chess pieces.
This world will reach a grandiose point in life that... I shall truly, in Essence and Soul, become a Primordial being.
Until then, we shall wait.
For there is nothing we could do... either than to do just that.
Wait.
We are also to use the anomaly and the irregular to our advantage. The anomaly seems to know a lot that even we do not know off as yet.
Should I give him an Epithet? Maybe we should. That would make us closer to the anomaly, but what kind of Epithet?
Epithets are within, and can also be beyond the Universal Laws. They are powers that are powered by the Rules of Reality, making them something not easily manipulated.
But the anomaly knows things that even The Primordial Source, us, do not know. Should they not be termed as the "Seeker of Forbidden Knowledge"?
Or should we term them the "Knower of the Unfathomable"?
What about "Master of Myriad Secrets and Mysteries"? Or simply, "The Anomaly"? Yes. That sounds better, and resonates well with the Rules of Reality.
Then it is decided.
They also know about runic encryptions. Should we bestow upon them the Skill of that entity? Would that not bring hate and discontent towards us.
It should not.
...Then it is decided.
We shall reward the anomaly with that. And hopefully, that brings us favor from that entity as well, and not hate.
For if she ever so as thinks badly about us... we might as well just perish, altogether.
Indeed.

Miles away from the Gray Couple
Another duo was traversing through the empty plains leading to apparently, nowhere.
Damien and Juliette, each wearing a large black cloak that covered their entire figure, traveled the windy plains with purpose.
The cloaks were from the Gray House, and were made with high quality material. The duo wearing them felt comfortable and free within them.
"..."
It has been a week since they left the stronghold, and kept a straight direction away from the stronghold. Or any other human influence.
Humanity has twelve cities, each with half a million population within. And within the central area, was where most of the surviving first generational humans stayed.
They were around a billion of them.
Meanwhile, the twelve cities were situated within the south, north, west and east. Three cities in each cardinal direction, with each city having its own range of territory.
Each of these cities represented a different part of humanity, that used their owns means to settle, evolve and adapt to this world. Damien's city being within the West, where they adapted through brute forcing their way against the new environment.
Their technology and artifacts were far behind the others, but their standing was not low. After all, humanity's strongest fighters and humanity's most terrifying organization resides there.
But overall, all of humanity's stronghold covered a diamond shaped range. The twelve cities were the outermost defense line of humanity, and Damien's city was at the very outermost area.
pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ They were considered the vanguard cities. Each cardinal direction had one.
From there, it was very easy to leave the range of humanity's stronghold. And that was what the duo did. Within a week's time, they were far from humanity's influence.
They had covered a distance of 30,000 miles within the week, rest included, as they traveled at 200 miles per hour.
"How far are we..." Juliette murmured under her breathe and sighed heavily. She was not used to such tedious work. She wanted to rest as soon as possible.
"A few more miles." Damien responded. Juliette immediately retorted, "Big brother, you say that every day. I'm tired now."
"..."
He had nothing to say to that, and just kept walking ahead. Juliette also did not say anything else and followed behind him. Suddenly, she thought of a question and asked, "Where are we going by the way."
"Thought you would never ask." Damien scoffed at the question that took seven whole days to be formulated. Juliette pouted and retorted, "Well I'm asking now."
"Well I'm not gonna answer you."
"Well you should."
The bickered for a while longer until Damien came to a halt. They now currently stood in the middle of nowhere, and before them was a cave that seemed out of place.
It was not a large cave, but quite small. Yet humans can easily walk through if they bent down a bit. "Are we going in?" Juliette inquired with curiosity.
"Yeah. We have reached your stop." Damien replied, and became the first to enter the cave. "Oh wow. We really are." Juliette followed in after leaving behind such a comment.
