《The Demon Lord Candidate》Chapter 2.3 - The hunters close-in
Advertisement
Samuel then bolted towards the cave, with his bloodshot red eyes opened wide with a lunatic smile. He was laughing for no apparent reason, at this point he was not any human but completely acting like a bloodthirsty beast.
“Time to hunt some poochies, Hahaha”, screamed Samuel as he leaped in the cave with excitement.
But before he could even land his feet inside the cave, a big mean claw pounced tearing his face apart. Samuel went drifting across in the air and rolled on the cold rocky floors before stopping his face to the ground. He laid motionless, as his brains and eyes were clawed out and spilled on the ground.
Samuel’s blood was splattered around, the werewolf had clawed his face and neck with such a force, that Samuel was flung across meters away.
“Enough with the games, time to end this!”, growled the werewolf as he came out of the cave.
This time it looked much bigger, furrier and angrier than before.
The werewolf had completed his full transformation and was on his full power.
It seemed more powerful than before even though he was missing an arm.
The werewolf licked his claws, that had Samuel’s blood stained on it.
“You taste awful!”, said the wolf.
Samuel started giggling again and got up on his feet. His head was back in one piece like new.
All of a sudden, the werewolf’s mood changed. He had a smile for some reason and was excited.
“My name is Leiotal Des’Aabra from the demon house of the werewolves. What is your name, human?”, asked the werewolf.
But Samuel didn't seem intrested in conversation as he dashed and leaped at the werewolf to attack.
His speed has increased drastically than before, but the werewolf still blocked his punch.
The punch was so powerful that Samuel’s left arm bones were broken and came right out of his elbow and was visible.

The werewolf was surprised, yet again.
Such speed and power, that his human vessel can’t even keep up. The shard is powerful as the rumors stated.
Samuel’s left arm already started to repair itself, but he wasn't done yet.
Next, he leaped at the werewolf and punched him with an uppercut with his demon arm.
The punch was so intense that the werewolf’s teeth cracking could be heard before it went flying towards the sky.
The werewolf went about 20 meters high before it smashed on the rocky walls of the hill, flipped about a couple of times. It then grabbed the rocky walls by its claws and stopped the momentum.
Samuel left human arm was healed up by then and his demon arm was somehow intact.
The werewolf then spits out his broken teeth and then charged at Samuel as he sprinted down the walls towards Samuel.
In response, Samuel also started to climb up the walls and leaped at werewolf.
Samuel dodged the werewolf’s claw and attacked with his fist which was then blocked by the werewolf.
They constantly exchanged blows of punches and claws in the mid-air. Their speed almost matched each other, as they blocked and dodged the each others attack. No one seemed to back down, nor anyone could land a clean hit. The werewolf constantly swung its claws as well as blocked Samuel's punches, whereas Samuel dodged its claws by a hair strand, as he tried to land a punch on the werewolf.
They seemed equally matched, and neither of them could score a hit.
Just when they were about to touch the ground, the werewolf suddenly changed his attack tactics and suddenly grabbed Samuel by his demon arm, and pulled him closer as it opened its jaw wide, ready to take a bite of his head.

Samuel instinctively sacrificed his left arm instead and saved his head from being a dog food.
The werewolf took a nice bite of his left arm, with no mercy as it rips his arm apart. Samuel then balled up his leg and kicked him right on the werewolf in the face and got away from it.
Although, Samuel got away from the werewolf but at the cost of his arm.
The werewolf chewed Samuel’s arm before gobbling down his tummy.
“Now we are matched evenly! How does it feel to lose your arm? Huh?", asked the werewolf as it grinned.
Samuel stared at the werewolf confusingly, as he tilted his head back and forth.
After a few seconds pass, a new arm grows out in the place of his old one. His arm was all wet and gooey covered with mucus, but it was a new arm.
“This is totally absurd!”, blabbered the werewolf to himself.

Tower of Somnus
When humanity first encountered alien life, we were judged and found wanting. The Galactic Consensus interviewed our leaders and subjected us to a battery of psychological tests to determine our progress as a society. They found us to be selfish, wasteful, impulsive, and boorish neighbors. Earth was blockaded and our collective encounter with our extrasolar neighbors rapidly faded from memory. All they left behind was a hypercomm relay and a handful of subscriptions to a massively multiplayer game that participants played in their sleep. The Consensus said that it would let us interact with our neighbors in a controlled setting. That it would teach us to be better members of the galactic community. The megacorporations that controlled Earth ignored the game until they learned that the powers earned from clearing dungeons were just as real when day broke. Magic, supernatural abilities and rumors exploded from nothing and a subscription to The Tower of Somnus became a status symbol. Katherine ‘Kat’ Debs doesn’t have much, but it could be worse. Born in an arcology, she was assigned a job in the megacorporation that raised her almost as soon as she could work. Despite the stability of her corporate life, she wanted something more. A chance to claw her way up the rigid social and financial ladder to make something of herself. A chance that wouldn’t come naturally to someone as familiar with dark alleyways and the glint of steel as she was with office work and corporate niceties.Book One is up on Kindle Unlimited as of 7/6/22 - https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B0B2X3L8H5
