Reincarnated As A Wolf With Cheats

Chapter 108 The Tornadoes

"Now where do I search?"

He looked here and there and found nothing more than a barren piece of land. Of course, the muddy water that created the swampy condition still prevailed.

Not that he cared about that.

'How did they even come here?', it was tough for him to walk there.

His legs felt heavy because they were getting sucked in by the mud. Of course, he was too small.

A pup couldn't possibly enter such swampy areas and seeing that he resembled a few months old pups even after being a year old, one couldn't argue that he had to face the same limitations as them.

He blindly believed Balton and entered this place, he didn't even ask for reliable proof.

IN any case, all he could do at the moment is search. His range of vision was wide thanks to the absence of vegetation.

The grasses in the grassland were a bit long in some areas, they were at least two meters long.

Due to that, he wasn't able to see what was present behind the grasses, on contrary to that area, the barren Plains contained very tiny grasses or just wet soil and nothing else.

His vision was fairly good thanks to which he could search for her efficiently but there was another problem that was hindering his search.

It was night time and due to the absence of the sunlight, it was becoming harder to see the darker areas.

"Damn, this isn't good.", he sighed.

He somehow walked a few steps because of the moonlight. But that too soon started to dim. Rather, it totally disappeared.

It was present only for five minutes and now no more moonlight, nor the moon could be seen.

Shin noticed that the cool breeze that was blowing past him, became cooler and faster.

'This is giving me chills…', was what he said to himself.

When took a look at the sky, the reddish-orange clouds had already vanished and in place of them, deep black clouds appeared.

They probably drifted from the forest where it was raining a while ago, of course, from the side other than the north edge of the forest of Thuren.

Well, a little lightning sparks could be seen too, it was as if a storm was soon going to engulf the Plains.

"The heck?"

"Does the weather change in a few minutes?", he asked himself.

The answer is yes, the weather sure can change in a few minutes, in fact, in a few seconds, but that was mostly seen in seas and near the seashores.

Somewhere on the land, nearly at the center of the continent, experiencing such sudden change was not normal at all.

Earlier too he had experienced something similar but he let it go but now he started to think if something was wrong because it was happening faster than it had happened earlier.

"What is this weird phenomenon?", the moonlight was surely dimmed but hadn't vanished.

The clouds sure tried to hide the moon and tried to block its light too, but they were moving way too fast so it was sometimes visible and sometimes not.

When it was visible, Shin saw a gigantic tornado dashing towards him. It was filled with mud rotating with the addition of the wind.

"The f*k is that!?", and that was all he could say.

'Ding'

[ You have used the skill Dash ]

[ Skill.exp: 0/100 ]

[ -> Your speed will be tripled ]

[ -> Dexterity of the limbs will be doubled ]

[ -> Fatigue will start to get accumulated by 0.05 per second. ]

[ -> Skill will get deactivated automatically the moment fatigue reaches 50 ]

The skill Ruler Of Swamps was supposed to give him an advantage in the swampy areas, it was basically going to increase his stats or boost his skills.

But unfortunately, its effects got canceled out.

Shin's body wasn't made to be in swamps. It was common sense to think that his abilities would be retarded! Well, his skills wouldn't have been retarded if the mud wasn't deep!

Thankfully, that didn't happen and the reason was the title. The decreasing effects and the increasing effects just canceled themselves.

Only because of this, Shin was able to use his powers normally, which was for the better perhaps.

He ran with great speed while trying to dodge the tornado. However, no matter what he did, the tornado kept following him.

If he went to the left, the tornado would also take the left, and if he were to go towards the right, the tornado would do the same.

"You got to be kidding me…", Shin took a peek only to find the speed and intensity of the tornado increasing.

The tornado started to piss him off, even though he was the one running, it seemed as if the tornado was toying with him.

"If that's how you want to play…"

"Then…"

'Aooooooo'

Shin all of a sudden stopped and turned back only to howl. It seemed to be a normal howl only for a few seconds because right after he howled, strong winds started to emerge from the grounds and formed gigantic swirling and spinning winds that looked almost similar to the tornado that was practically chasing him.

"What do you think?"

"Who will win, a tornado…"

"Or a hurricane?", he grinned.

'Ding'

[ You have used the skill Hurricane ]

[ All of your wind-based skills will be boosted by 10% ]

[ 1 MP will be depleted every second ]

[ Range of effectiveness -> 100 meters ]

Both, the tornado and the hurricane, seemingly a cyclone, clashed with each other.

While no actual sparks were seen, the clash seemed quite deadly.

The air from the nearby space was getting sucked by them which was leading them to grow bigger.

Their destructiveness kept increasing without any stop.

The entire plain would have ended up getting destroyed, at least, if Shin's MP was infinite instead of the little finite numbers.

[ MP: 280/510|| Max. MP: ??? ]

"This isn't good at all…", he said with a worried expression.

"Even before the tornado would stop, my MP will run out…", this was something that he didn't want to happen.

He still hadn't found even a single clue about Aella. He was in an unknown territory, although he had the title of a ruler, it was still dangerous.

He would fail to fight if any beast were to attack.

"It would be better if I run far away from here and then stop using the skill…", that was a good idea.

If he were to do that, then the tornado wouldn't reach him. If he would use dash and wind run at the same time, he could outrun the tornado.

Also, due to the 10% to wind type skills, Wind Run would function in a better manner!

The plan and idea were all set, all he had to do was perform it exactly as he had planned.

But…

But there was something else that hindered, or to be precise, completely destroyed his plan!

Another tornado appeared out of nowhere.

Because of the fast-moving wind, the current tension, and the planning, Shin completely failed to detect the tornado that neared him.

30 meters? Yes, that was the only distance left between Shin and the tornado.

'Ding'

[ The host has attempted in using the same skill again ]

'Ding'

[ Identified the skill to be Ranged skill ]

[ Would you still like to proceed in using the skill? ]

[-> Yes/ No ]

Two options appeared out of which Shin chose one – Yes.

He didn't read the above notification but did hear it as it echoed in his head.

[ You have used the skill Hurricane ]

[ The wind-based skills wouldn't be boosted because of the pre-existing boost from the same skill ]

[ 1 MP will be depleted every second ]

[ Additional 1 MP will be deducted due to the use of the same ranged skill ]

[ Range of effectiveness -> 100 meters ]

'Ding'

[ 3 MP will be deducted every second ]

'Boom'

The clash of the cyclonic winds from the tornadoes and hurricanes sent shockwaves throughout the plains.

Given how light Shin's body was, he basically was blown away by the strong winds which could even destroy the winds.

"Argh!"

It was a good thing that he was pushed by the winds. Due to this, he wouldn't be required to spend MP on wind run or dash.

Though, the question was, just how far was he sent off because he was quite high in the sky – 40 meters from the ground.

"…"

[ MP: 110/510|| Max. MP: ??? ]

"..."
