Chapter 349: Howling Force

Chapter 349: Howling Force

The three of them stood side by side, tall and strong, their presence making all the Underdogs members unconsciously take a step back to adjust themselves. After all, what they were staring at weren't three humans, but three literal beasts.

Now that Kai was no longer being attacked, he was able to focus his anger once again, allowing his arms and legs to be covered in fur once more. Strangely, this time even the side of his face was turning hairy, going down towards his chin.

Then there was Olivia. Only part of her body had changed to show off her black fur, and her forearms were smaller compared to Kai’s, yet her fingernails seemed longer, and were sticking out more. Gary, who saw both of them, was unsure whether this difference was due to the former being a female Werewolf, or if this had to do with her being a Hunter Class Werewolf.

Meanwhile, he himself was undoubtedly the biggest threat to the gang members. While the other two had only partially transformed, he had used Full Transformation to completely turn into a Werewolf.

“Three Altered, all the same type. What is going on?!” One of the men cried out in panic.

“Who cares!” Damion shouted to keep up the morale. “We have the weapons to fight them! Just think of the rewards we will get once we hand over all three of them!”

The first one to make a move amidst all the chaos wasn't Damion, nor any of his remaining men, it was none other than Gary who was proving that although big in size, his movement speed was faster than any of them.

The Alpha Werewolf ran straight towards one of the members wielding an Anti-Altered spear. Before the Underdogs member could use his weapon like intended, he briefly felt a stinging pain from his neck area, then a warm liquid dripping down, before he fell to the ground dead.

Following an instinct, Gary licked off the blood from his claw while looking at the gang members. Ironically, the Underdogs weren’t the only ones whose fear this type of action had invoked. Kai had never thought to see such a side of the teenager…

———

Not too long ago, Gary had chanced upon Olivia in the abandoned police station. With the two of them working together, it had proven relatively easy to defeat the remaining guards. The Lady Boss had then proceeded to inform him about what had happened while he had been out.

A team of Pincers, along with the other Howler members, had raided the few hideouts the Underdogs had left. At each place a token force of members had been left, and they were getting rid of them one by one.

Kai knew this would catch the personal attention of his father, so he had asked Olivia in person to come at the right time and break them out, unless he were to contact her. This had been Kai's Plan B in case Plan A of being turned would have proven not to be feasible.

“Then we have to go and save Kai! He will definitely be after Damion now!” Gary insisted once Olivia was done. “Kai is one of us now, but he won't be able to take them on his own! We can’t let him commit the same mistake as I did.”

“You think I don’t know that? Seriously, both of you need to sit down and talk this shit out once all of this is over. I’m aware that each of us is stronger than the average man, but neither one of you was thinking straight when deciding to take on an entire gang by yourselves.

“Look, I’ll have to follow whatever you say anyway since you’re the boss, but let me give you a word of warning. If you want us to save your buddy, you’ll have to fight to the death. Remember when you went into the Pincers gang? Everyone there was ready to kill you, including me, only problem was we just couldn't.

“It's going to be the same this time, only they seem to have the means we lacked. You were lucky enough that Kai’s suicidal plan actually worked somehow, but don’t think you’ll get a third chance if we lose.

“This fight will be an all or nothing situation, so you’ll need to fight without holding anything back, and allow me to do the same. If you don't then there is a good chance that all three of us will end up dead. Do you understand what I'm saying? You have to be prepared to kill everyone!”

Gary gritted his teeth, he hadn't killed any of the Underdogs members they had run into so far, and neither had Olivia, though in her case it was more than likely due to the Pack Rules. The teenager would like to avoid going on a killing spree, but it didn’t really seem like he had much of a choice.

Unfortunately, he recognised the truth in her words. The Alpha Werewolf would have to steel his resolve. Whether he could or not, Gary was hoping that by the time they reached the end of Damion’s Mark he would be ready to do what needed to be done.

——

The moment of fear from seeing their fellow member having been killed soon made place for the realisation that if they did nothing they would end up as a corpse as well. As such, they sprinted into action and thrust their long spears forward towards Gary. Once again, a quick, fast object wrapped around the pole part of the spear.

They were yanked onto the ground, and Olivia kicked one of the men right in the face.

“It looks like you made your decision. You're becoming more of a person who I can follow.” Olivia stated with a wicked smile on her face.

Not answering her, the Alpha Werewolf picked up the dead body, and hurled it towards the gang members, before running back towards Kai and Olivia, repositioning themselves. He had easily grabbed the other two, and leapt over the group of people.

Gary had more strength and speed than the two of them, because he was a werewolf that was in another Grade compared to them.

“Gary, what are you doing? We can’t risk letting him get away! We need to finish him off here and now!” Kai protested.

“I know.” Gary growled as a response, putting him down and turning around. Now, the three were no longer surrounded. They stood on one side of the car park, blocking the exit, while Damion and the others stood next to the vehicles in the centre.

“We will finish it here.”

His words were not understood by the gang members, since it was full of growls and only the sounds of vowels could be made out, but both Olivia and Kai could understand Gary. Immediately, he opened up the system, as it was time for him to use everything he had.

First, Gary selected the Pack tab where Olivia's name could be seen. As a Hunter Class Werewolf she had 15 Marks available, and as the Alpha Werewolf he was able to assign them as well. He used this ability to Mark every still living member of the Underdogs.

The second this was done, Olivia felt an energy rise inside. Seeing the targets in front of her, the scents in the air could be seen in all of them and the blue colour in her eyes was shining stronger than before.

It was the effect of the Hunter Class and on top of that, Gary would gain additional Exp for every one of the targets that Olivia successfully hunted.

Then, there was one more thing, Gary needed to change.

[The Pack Rules have been amended.]

“Kai, go take care of Damion while Olivia and I take care of the others. If you need help, don’t hesitate. After today, there won’t be any Underdogs left!”

Opening his maw wide, a large, piercing howl escaped.
