Chapter 308 Capturing The Enemy

ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm 

In the midst of darkness, a shadow stood around the canopy of trees. It's fur waved in the air as the darkness seemed to be absorbed into it's body.

The shadowy figure was none other than Sirius. He had used the cover of night to scout the area around the base. Prioritizing the new structures that had developed all of a sudden, Sirius's mission was to make sure that there were no imminent threats to the base.

Also, to make a know how of the situation around the new development. Sirius's eyes glowed a yellowish color as he peered through the darkness and seemed to have gained night vision.

"Strange. What is it?" Sirius muttered as he raised his claw? Right now he was in his transformed state and had gained the superior physical prowess of werewolf. Not to mention the moon strengthening him further.

Sirius jumped from the canopy and glided through the air as he dove into the shadows yet again. His figure vanished as he appeared a couple hundred meters away from his location.

An arrow whizzed and struck the canopy where he previously stood, "That was close," He thought and looked at the origin of the arrow.

The arrow seemed to have come out of nowhere. It's origin unknown, Sirius became alert. Brandishing his claws, he looked around and drove into the shadows yet again.

What appeared after were not one but five shadows in the form of wolves. The wolves varied in sizes as they all carried distinct features. One wolf was lean and slim as it's eyes seemed to glow in the dark as a glint shone in it's eyes.

Sirius looked at the wolf and spoke, "Search over and see who is the culprit," After that, Sirius turned to the other four wolves. Two had huge maws and strong limbs while the other two had elongated claws that glowed a dark hue. It was evident that shadows seemed to congregate in those claws and they were deadly enough to pierce through the strongest of steel.

"You all spread over and wait for my command. Attack any unknown assailant but don't kill it. I want answers," Sirius communicated mentally and extended his claws further.

A dark glint shone in the claws as he closed his eyes and waited. He was waiting for the unknown attacker to make a move. A few seconds later, his ears perked up as Sirius opened his eyes and looked to his left.

An arrow was streaking at him in full speed as Sirius jumped in the air and grabbed the arrow. He brought the arrow near his nose and sniffed lightly.

As he did, his eyes constricted by a bit as he realized that the arrow didn't contain a whiff of anything. It was as if no one had even touched it yet.

Though the situation looked normal, it was very bleak. If Sirius couldn't smell the scent from the arrow, then who ever the assailant were, they were very good at masking their scent and that too to such an extent that it evaded Sirius's nose.

Realizing that he wasn't fighting an amateur but a truly dangerous enemy, Sirius turned serious. He growled lowly as he bent his knees a bit. Lowering his center of gravity, he balanced his body in the most optimal position and he himself masked his presence.

The shadows around him converged as they covered his body as only a very faint silhouette of his body was left behind. He had practically turned invisible but a keen person could still notice the remnants of his figure.

However, that was all Sirius could do while still being in a state to fight. Even if he could turn completely invisible, it would be too draining and a chore to fight while being invisible.

As Sirius sensed his surroundings, he trees rustled as he heard something pass by a few meters away. He stood in his place and continued to concentrate as the trees rustled again. This time even nearer while the wind whistled as an arrow flew by. Missing his head a small margin, Sirius kept on waiting.

A few moments later, the rustle grew while the arrows stopped flying around. In the darkness of night, Sirius's eyes suddenly reflected the sheen of a silvery dagger.

Seeing the dagger, Sirius grinned as his opponent couldn't resist anymore. He knew that the enemy was smart and strong but in a game of attraction where his wolves roamed the area, he was the king.

In the woods, he was the fearless wolf who devoured anything in it's part and even if he took a step back, he did so with utmost confidence in himself.I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

All this while, his wolves had been scanning the area and the main wolf whom he sent at the very beginning acted as a scout and relayed everything to him.

Sirius had used the information to asses the situation and got to know that there was no other enemy in the surroundings. This left him with a lot of leeway to fight and plan his course of actions.

The enemy wanted to get rid of him and they wanted to do so as fast as possible. After all, Sirius was the unknown one for the enemy and from what Sirius deduced, he enemy didn't underestimate him a bit and wanted to get it over with fast.

"Well, you shouldn't have overestimated me either," He grinned as the shadows converging around his body vanished. His body shone int eh faint moon light as he lifted his claws and disappeared.

He appeared on the canopy of a tree and looked down as e saw a blur moving through the trees. The blur held a short curved dagger that glinted dangerously.

Sirius didn't dare risk his life as he knew that he had a lot to do and who knew if the dagger was coated with poison. Sirius wasn't strong enough to have poison immunity, it simply fell out of his expertise.

"So how do I fight it?" he thought carefully and called the shadow wolves back to him. All while moving through the trees. Keeping the enemy in sight, he brandished his claws and jumped forward.

The shadows covered him yet again as his presence disappeared. The assailant faintly felt something drawing closer to it as it managed to draw back just in time. Though, not before a claw scratched its body.

"Ughh," A grunt escaped the assailant's mouth as Sirius pushed forward. His claws retracted as he kicked the ground and lunged forward.

With his hand, he wiped the assailant of it's feet and kicked it right at the middle of this chest. The impact was so loud that the assailant flew right into a tree.

Sirius didn't stop there, he called his wolves and asked them to surround he person as he brandished his claws once more. He kicked the ground and moved forward with the claws right in front of his body. He slashed at the assailant once again but as he did, his expression changed.

Something seemed to shine in the darkness as Sirius realized, "Shit! The dagger," He thought and redirected his attack. Using his claws to block the dagger, Sirius unintentionally left an opening.

That was all the assailant needed as his other hand moved. An arrow appeared in his hand as it was thrust forward.

Seeing the arrow come at his chest, Sirius's eyes went wide as he raced this brain for a solution. His body was blocked from any movement while all he could do was use his magical affinity towards the shadows.

And that was exactly what he did. He used his magic and the mana within his body surged. Using all that mana, he called upon the previous battles he had been through and remembered the shadowy armor summoned back then.

Calling upon the shadows, he merged them with his mana and congregated them right at the trajectory of the dagger. The dagger was inches away from impact as a faint piece of armor appeared at that point.

"Clanggg!!" The dagger made contact but instead of piercing through his body, it hit the shadow armor he had just called forth. The armor continued to expand as it merged with his flesh and gave him a barbaric look but it was not as if he cared.

Sirius wanted protection and he got that. He looked back at the assailant and grinned evilly. The person was out of tricks and it was how time for Sirius to have some much needed fun.

His hand moved as he gripped the assailant tightly and lifted it above the ground. He whacked away the dagger and looked right into the person's eyes, "You are mine now," He muttered and punched the person right into the face.

The person fainted and Sirius made his way back to the mansion. It was time for some interrogation but he knew that he couldn't do so alone so he decided to leave it to the experts.
