Primordial Soul's Rebirth

Chapter 148: CHAPTER 148 – Noctura reached SS-rank.

In Orange Country, there was a national park.

It was called 'Emerald Peak National Park'.

It was a place for every animal to survive and humans looked after it. There were many animals there, from the ones with a large population to the ones that were almost extinct.

It was a nice tourist spot and people from other countries came to visit this place a lot, but it all changed the moment the gates appeared.

The animals started evolving, they grew stronger, more ferocious, and bloodthirsty.

The bloodthirst, however, was only for those they didn't like.

But there were some beasts that would kill anyone, they don't like anyone.

One such beast was standing in the middle of a grassy field, looking at the wolf in front of it.

It sneered at the saw the wolf that was just a bit larger than a dog's size.

"You want to challenge me, dog?" The beast sneered as it shook its head.

It knew the one in front of it was a wolf, but it still called it a dog.

"Well, I haven't eaten yet, so I guess it's good…."

The beast continued as it licked its lips.

Its voice was rough, like a muscular large man, and it was large as it had a height of 2 meters even while it stood on its fours.

"Cats these days…." A feminine voice was heard as the wolf that was standing in front of the large cat, or lion spoke while rolling her eyes with a sigh.

It felt like an adult scolding a child, and the lion who was being called a cat didn't like any of this.

"You little shit, die!!"

The lion growled as it dashed toward the wolf who had her eyes brightened as she was successful in provoking her opponent.

'Just like Master...'

Her eyes, shifting between blue and black, sparkled with love as she thought about her master.

The lion rushed at the wolf with a growl and its speed was quite fast as it had reached the wolf before the wolf could react.

The lion was after all an SS-rank beast, the ruler of this national park.

It would kill anyone or anything that it saw, that was the reason why the field around it was empty.

But today, a wolf dared to enter its territory, and if that was not enough, it was mocked as well.

This was not something it would take lying, so it raised its claws that shone with black color before they hit the fox.

The wolf on the other hand was someone who had just entered the SS-rank and was not good at controlling her power, but she was still an SS-ranked beast.

Both of them were fighting for different purposes, the lion because he was bloodthirsty and hungry while the wolf was fighting because she wanted to test her new powers.

The lion's paw hit the wolf on her face, she couldn't react and she was sent flying as she crashed on the ground.

"All of that arrogance, and you can't even react to my speed," The lion just growled in anger.

'I thought that she was strong….' It was his fault for expecting something.

The lion just walked toward the wolf who was lying flat on the ground.

The lion came close to the wolf with his body relaxed. It thought that it had already killed the wolf as it was not moving.

The lion was confident in its strength as it had yet to find someone who could survive a single strike from it. It was so easy for him in every fight that he only used his basic ability called 'Iron Claw' and ended the fight.

The lion's vision was clouded with arrogance as it moved ahead and was about to step over the wolf's head, but...

*Pierce*

The lion turned its head down slowly as it felt a piercing pain from its abdomen.

"Ah…" The lion realized why it was feeling the pain as it saw a black spike made of his own shadow had pierced him.

The lion finally noticed the lack of blood in the surroundings and its claw, which showed that his attack before didn't do any damage.

"Looks like you were the one who needed to keep its arrogance in check."

The lion then turned toward the source of the voice and saw the wolf that he had hit earlier standing straight without a scratch on her face.

He could see her face covered in a black mask-like thing and that mask had almost shattered.

The lion finally realized that its attack was defended by that thing.

"You bitch…." The lion growled one last time before it fell to the ground with a thump.

"It was your fault for believing that I would be dead with just one strike," The wolf just licked her paw as she looked at the dead body of the lion.

'I tricked my enemy, just like master taught Mama to do!' The wolf was jumping inwardly.

She turned around and moved back toward the place where she lived for the past week, but as she moved the body of the lion that was lying dead on the ground was pierced by two more spikes made of shadow.

"Guess it's really dead…" The wolf muttered as she looked at the body of the lion that now had its head pierced as well.

The wolf then ran toward the place where her master left her.

As she arrived at the place, she could see a 3-meter-tall igloo-like structure made of rocks.

It was created by her master and it was super durable. She had tried breaking it, but even after her rank went up to SS-rank she couldn't put more than a scratch on that structure,

She dashed toward the igloo made of rock but then she pressed her brake as her steps came to a sudden halt, she slid for a meter and her speed was fast before she stopped.

Then she started sniffing the air until her eyes brightened with delight.

'Master!!' She exclaimed inwardly as she ran toward the direction the scent was coming from.

..................

"You think she would still be there?" Alice asked as she walked together with Alex and Ann.

"You think she would leave the place that was built by her Master?" Ann raised a brow as she questioned Alice.

"…. I guess not," Alice replied but then they saw Alex stop as he smiled and opened his arms wide, ready to catch something or someone.

Before both of them could ask what happened, they heard a scream filled with delight which caused them to smile automatically.

"MASTER!!!!!" The same black-furred wolf that fought the lion a while ago jumped at Alex.

It was Noctura, of course.

"Time to go home, pup," Alex spoke with a smile as he caught Noctura in his arms.

Noctura's forelimbs were placed over Alex's shoulders and her face was right in front of Alex's which she started licking.

She was just so happy to see him again.

It had been hard for her to stay sane without her Master close to her.
