Chapter 12: The Big Hunt
In a dense forest full of tall & broad trees, a group of animals that could be called a mixture between deer and a predatory beast were eating grass peacefully.
But unbeknownst to these creatures, there were 2 sets of eyes looking towards them from a distance. One of them was a giant wolf with a full pitch black fur on its entire body while another was a man wearing a dark red hide around his waist. Both of their eyes looked as if they were here to kill everything that stood in front of them.
Kahn & Omega were using their Hunt Perception ability. While using it, Kahn's pupils dilated and he gained a more detailed and zoomed view of his targets. He could see the heat signatures of his prey from 20 meters far and even feel which one of the creatures had all their muscles completely relaxed.
"You take the left and I'll draw their attention. Attack as soon as I appear in front of them. And take down the one closest to the tree. Understood ?" Kahn looked towards Omega. Omega nodded and left without causing any unnecessary noises which could alert their targets.
Kahn silently progressed towards the herd by crouching through tall grass on both of his hands and legs like a four-legged animal would. He wasn't hasty nor clumsy.
He looked like a tiger waiting for a perfect time to attack. Kahn quickly activated his War Dominance aura as soon he reached near the herd. Strong pressure of gravity was exerted around a 5-meter radius and before these creatures could react, Kahn pounced towards the nearest creature while activating his Alpha Wolf's Claws and swung his right claw around the nape of the creature which was caught off guard & couldn't even move under the pressure of War Dominance.
Blueish blood started flowing on the ground as soon as his claws pierced through the hide which felt as tough as leather in a matter of seconds.
This sudden attack alerted the other members of the herd, and they tried to run away the very next second. Kahn had limited reach on the area he could cover under War Dominance Aura so some of them had full control on their bodies and started running off. Only to be attacked by a giant Dire Wolf from the opposite side.
Omega was very vicious unlike Kahn. He didn't go for a swift kill, rather plunged his teeth inside their necks and ripped apart the head out of their bodies. Blue blood spurted like a fountain on the green grass but the massacre didn't stop. Both Kahn & Omega dashed towards their respective closer targets and attacked in a preplanned manner. It was as if they had completely practiced their coordination. The massacre continued until there were 5 dead bodies on the ground. Out of the 9 of these creatures, 4 managed to escape while 5 went to heaven to meet their maker.
"Whew! I guess we got lucky." Kahn said and put his right hand on one of the dead creatures.
"Absorb!"
[Host has acquired the following abilities :
Sprinter, Panorama vision, Wilker hide.]
"Oh, so these are called Wilker ?" Kahn learned the name of the species through the system. He imagined himself having the same tough skin as the Wilkers and his skin completely turned green like these creatures and small spikes appeared all over his body.
"Ugh.. I look like Killer Croc now." Kahn deactivated the ability and collected the core. Meanwhile, Omega was tearing out the flesh and entrails of the other bodies with his large fangs as if he had been hungry for years. He only left out the cores for Kahn and nothing else.
Kahn had already recovered and now he was 4 times stronger than when in entered Vantrea through the void. His War Deity Body had also completed its first transformation and became twice stronger compared to before. And Kahn also ate the cores of small animals Omega hunted in the morning. And according to the system, he was now level 2 and his body Attributes & Stats had doubled as well.
Still, this was no excuse to be laid-back and hope things will go in his favor. He still remembered vividly how he barely managed to kill the wolves yesterday and survived by a hair's breadth. Otherwise, it'd be him who was torn through & gutted down by the pack of wolves. So he didn't wish to waste any time.
Somehow, Omega had a proper understanding of which prey they could Hunt with their capabilities and which ones they shouldn't. It was more like an innate sense of his Dire Wolf species.
