The three-headed wolf continued to scream in agony as my Lizards continued firing their Fire Breaths at it, while Eleanora and Blood surprised the beast with a shower of blood projectiles. And at the same time, I quickly mounted a Fenrir and melded into the shadows with him, reaching the three-headed wolf in an instant.

"What's wrong? Feeling a little bit troubled there?" I asked. "Ax!"

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!

I quickly summoned the five Ax I had saved up in my Grimoire, and by manipulating them through the [Wind Gust] Tier 2 Wind Attribute Spell, I launched them at the three-headed beast one after the other, as the living weapons unleashed their strongest attacks.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!

"GRYYAAARRRR…!"

The wolf gave out a pitiful groan unbefitting of an alpha of his species, the axes piercing through his flesh crudely as blood continued to bleed out of its large wounds. I happily absorbed his blood and then merged it with Gluttony, which I had grabbed back from the ground just now!

I aimed the head in the middle of its three heads, and then launched the spear with my Demonic Arm for extra strength!

CLAAASH!

"AWOOO…!"

The wolf agonized, as the spear pierced through its middle head, but it didn't died yet. Perhaps I had to kill all three of its heads for it to die? How troublesome of a beast.

"You're a persistent bastard, aren't you?" I sighed, as I immediately reappeared behind the monster, just for its three tails to attack me.

"WOOF!"

Blood emerged before me as he unleashed his [Blood Barrier] several times, creating ten layers in a mere second.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

The three-headed wolf's tails hit the barriers instead, breaking them one after the other, but ultimately failing to hit us as we swiftly evaded while the tails destroyed the barriers Blood created.

Perhaps I need some aerial support.

"Falco! Huginn!"

"CRAAA!"

"CRYAA!"

Four black crows and three green falcons emerged in the skies, as they attacked the wolf from above with slicing winds and shadow feather projectiles, bombarding its entire body and putting more tension on it.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The dangerous beast quickly noticed the presence of aerial attacks, as it swiftly evaded them one after the other, quickly reaching my way once more. Its three enormous jaws quickly attempted to devour me.

However, this was exactly what I wanted!

"Spore!"

I summoned two of the Spores I had in my reserves and let them unleash all their spore attacks inside the open jaws of the three-headed wolf.

POOOF!

"AAGRR….!"

The wolf immediately felt the adverse effects, losing balance and suddenly rolling over the floor. The two Spores were almost devoured before I brought them back into Card Form and stored them.

"GRARR… GGRR…!"

The beast struggled, trying to stand up but feeling completely dizzy. The powerful skills of Spore were all dedicated to annoying the target with paralyzing poison, poison that deals damage over time, and even smoke that makes a foe confused.

I slowly walked towards the wolf, as I took back my spear stuck into its body.

"GGRRR…"

The monster's eyes locked into me, as he attempted to create another Gravity Field.

However, it failed.

"GRAR?!"

"You're out of Demonic Energy, aren't you? What a pity, it would had been fun if this lasted a bit longer."

Infusing Ki and Mana into my spear, I sliced the wolf's necks all at the same time. It offered almost no resistance, as its body was completely weakened by all the attacks it ended taking.

SLAAASH!

The three heads rolled over the ground, as the fresh scent of blood filled my nostrils.

"That beast was more troublesome than I imagined." Eleanora said, emerging at my side with Blood.

"Yeah, well, a beast is a beast. Let's not put too much hope into a monster like this."

I quickly stored the entire beast carcass into Eleanora's shadows, which were already big enough to store hundreds of things inside, as I quickly joined the fight with everybody else.

After half an hour of fighting without stopping, we found ourselves sitting over dozens of corpses of Demonic Gray Wolves. The amount ended reaching almost sixty. It was a gigantic quantity of wolves in a single pack, led by this three-headed creature. If they had ended sneaking into the village, casualties were almost guaranteed even if the adventurers and hunters were to take measures immediately.

[Shadow Manipulation: Lv1]

Skill Proficiency: 0/10000

Only those incredibly proficient in Shadow Magic can acquire this Skill. It grants power over the element of shadows limited by the Skill Level and mastery over Shadow Magic, the range of this Skill is also dependent in the Skill Level. Additionally, it grants a +20% enhancement to the power of any Shadow/Darkness Attribute Magic Spell, alongside special techniques unlocked with each Skill Level.

Available Shadow Techniques:

Level 1: [Shadow Domination] [Dark Whip]

-----

Hoh, now this is interesting! [Shadow Domination] seems to grant the power to Dominate inanimate objects and turn them black-colored, granting them special and magical properties, it is something similar to enchanting or even cursing and could be used for weapon creation. And [Dark Whip] creates a large whip made of shadows to strike or capture enemies, simple and useful enough. The more this Skill level ups, the more abilities I will be able to unlock, this seems rather interesting.

However, for now…

[You have exchanged 30 Skill Points]

[The [Hard Working: Lv3] Skill has gained +30000 Skill Proficiency]

[The [Hard Working: Lv3] Skill has Leveled Up!]

Of course, I have my priorities.
