Chapter 60 The Massacre - Part 2: One Survivor
'Ding'
[ Advice: The system advises the host to use the Skill Transformation to transform into the 'Flame Wolf' ]
It was practically good advice. If Shin would transform into a flame wolf, then he would have nothing more to worry about.
Indeed, the fire would have no effect on his body due to which he would easily be able to save the other wolf that had been trapped.
Shin wasted no time, he almost immediately used his skill to transform despite not knowing what the Flame Wolf would be like.
A thing to note, Shin really hated hot stuff so was not Flame Wolf a fire type? Wouldn't that cause him inconvenience?
The answer is no, the moment he would become a Flame Wolf, he would no longer have trouble with the heat that was being generated from the fire in the surrounding.
That was why it was safe to assume that he wouldn't have any problems after transforming into that.
Also, the Flame Wolf's body would definitely be hotter than a normal wolf's body. That would imply that the external temperature would be less and thus he would feel cold instead of hot!
It was as if this class was made for him and probably that was why this had the highest chance of evolution during the start - [ 95 % ].
In any case, Shin didn't think about those things. All he did was use the skill and think about using the skill Dash to rescue as soon as possible.
'Ding'
[ You have used the skill Transformation ]
[ ... ]
'Ding'
[ Previous existing Link detected ]
[ Link: Half-Dragon Wolf ]
[ Would you like to proceed with the previous link? ]
[ -> Yes/No ]
At one of the most important times, the system was making it difficult for him by asking tons of questions instead of transforming directly.
"No!"
Shin rejected as soon as the question was asked.
'Ding'
[ Command Accepted ]
[ Choose the one to which you would like to be transformed ]
[ -> Midnight Wolf ]
[ -> Dark Wolf ]
[ -> Flame Wolf ]
[ -> Half-Dragon Wolf ]
Shin had no patience for all the options to appear. As soon as the choice was given, he picked up immediately by shouting - "I choose Flame Wolf!"
It did sound weird but he had no time to think about it.
Well, thanks to that the transformation did start earlier, at least a second earlier.
[ You have used the skill Dash ]
[ You have used the skill Heal ]
He started running while his body was glowing. He was constantly healing himself right now.
Yes, he could have run earlier, but the intensity of the flames kept getting stronger so he had to opt for this option.
In any way, he had no time to think about himself. But why was he so desperate to save someone else?
Wasn't he a murderer in his past life? How could his mentality change so easily? Well, that's a mystery.
Whatever he just ran as fast as he could to save the last probably a survivor from the Midnight Wolf Clan.
All of a sudden, the light growing from Shin's body intensified.
'Ding'
[ The fire from the surrounding is being absorbed into the body causing an irregularity ]
[ Warning ]
[ The transformation 'Flame Wolf' has exceeded its limit in absorbing the heat ]
The notifications popped up but Shin had no idea about what was happening.
'Ding'
[ All the fire in the surrounding will be absorbed to cause an evolution in the transformation 'Flame Wolf' ]
"Ha?"
Shin was obviously not reading any of the texts. The only thing that he did was hear the voice. That was much simpler.
But when he heard saying that, he could hardly understand it.
Why would a transformation stop in the middle because of the surrounding?
Shin felt confused, but his legs didn't stop. Yes, the confusion couldn't stop his legs.
The light that his body was emitting started to faint and almost disappeared.
Thankfully he was using the sill Heal to heal the burns and other injuries in his body.
Anyway, he was about to reach the place where the system was indicating just before reaching which he realized where he was going.
"The cliff?"
Indeed, he was dashing towards the cliff on which he had relaxed a few hours ago. Was it some sort of coincidence that a wolf laid there or was it some destiny to find someone there.
Shin had no idea who it was on the top but one thing was for sure, the flames kept getting bigger and bigger.
Shin finally reached the cliff only to find nothing! Yes, there was nothing other than some boulders.
"What the-"
He was confused and was about to check the system when suddenly he heard some noises from the boulder.
"Huh?"
When he took a careful look, he could see a small piece of stone rolling down from the boulder.
'There is definitely someone present there...', Shin realized that.
He started to walk slowly and calmly because he didn't want to surprise the wolf. But little did he know that he would end up being surprised.
"You...?", yes, it was the unexpected.
He found a small wolf pup shivering with fear. It basically had its forelimbs covering its head just like a human.
"You are..."
The moment Shin said that the pup suddenly stopped shivering.
Perhaps it was because it heard Shin's voice and recognized it.
"..."
'Woof'
"Woof?", it sounded funny because that was how puppies of Dogs would usually respond but oh well, that was how the pup responded anyway. It is not that common among wolves.
The pup then all of a sudden jumped towards Shin and literally hugged him. Shin fell backward due to the sudden jerk that he received due to the pup which was almost half of his weight.
It started licking Shin on the face, eyes, ears, nose, and paws too. It had tears in its own eyes, but it tried to lick away all the little burn marks that Shin had.
"Calm down...", Shin said in a low but trembling voice.
Trembling? Indeed Yes, he had a trembling voice. That was probably because he was relieved a bit to find at least someone alive and that someone was whom he knew and played with.
Well, he was probably happy the reason for which was quite simple, whoever associated with him, vanished without a trace left. Either it may be the past life or the present, they would end up vanishing some or the other way.
He thought that the same would happen this time too and it did, but he was thankful for having at least one wolf surviving!
