I Am The Anti-Mage

Chapter 8: Silver Wolf

“It’s too dark now. Can your squad handle that Silver Wolf?”

Regardless, this was Kim Ji-woo’s first time in the dungeon. However, he still had 30 years of wisdom and experience from the Great war.

Fighting at night was not wise without a concrete plan. It might become a double edge-sword if they force it.

“My squad can take care of it.” Hwang Eun-bi pat Ji-woo’s shoulder to try assuring him about the situation.

Eun-bi and four other E-rank hunters must stay put, where the others went to deal with the Silver Wolf.

Besides Ji-woo, there were five other Porters. All of them were very anxious right now.

“I-I’m… Scared.”

“Will we… Come back alive?”

“I’m sure the leader can protect us!”

Ji-woo shook his head, hearing the rambling from other Porters. He then shifted his focus to the environment.

After looking left and right, Ji-woo started having a premonition.

‘It’s been a few hours already since we are here, but I still can’t throw off the odd feeling from earlier.’

Eun-bi noticed Ji-woo’s uncomfortable expression, asking him. “What happened?”

“Is the flow of time here different from our world?” Ji-woo answered the question with a question.

“Oh, you catch it? Yes. one day here is only 1 hour in our world.”

‘Peculiar space.’

Ji-woo then continued his questioning. “Did… You feel Mana around you?”

“Em? No? What’s wrong with you, Ji-woo~si?”

‘Eh? Holy sh*t! There was Mana on the ground, in the trees, in the leaves. And to be more precise, the entire dungeon was flowing with Mana!!’

But Ji-woo didn’t want to overreact just because of this.

“Nothing, forget what I said.”

“You… So strange. Just don’t do anything without asking me first? Understand?”

Ji-woo was astounded at being treated like someone weak and in need of protection. In the end, he didn’t reply to Eun-bi’s words.

And Eun-bi didn’t mind Ji-woo not replying to her. She went back to wait for her squad member dealing with the Silver Wolf.

Suddenly, Ji-woo remembered something and didn’t pay attention to anything.

‘Ah, Stormrage has told me about this soul before. It allows me to detect or feel all kinds of Mana. Even if it’s blocked or hidden. ‘

When Ji-woo was still in the middle of thinking, there was a signal from the frontier.

Eun-bi immediately gave the command. “Let’s go. We regroup with other squad members.”

The Porters and hunters from the Eun-bi side then walked as the order.

Ji-woo couldn’t help but throw away his thoughts and move like the others reluctantly.

The reek of blood could smell up to their noses right after they reach the other squad member.

The Porters didn’t dare to get close, while Ji-woo followed Eun-bi and other hunters from behind.

One of the hunters from the Eun-bi side asked their leader. “Ji-hoon hyung~nim, this Silver Wolf is dead?”

Jun Ji-hoon nodded to his Dongsaeng’s query. On their back, Ji-woo stared at the corpse and was puzzled.

‘How does this dead Silver Wolf still have Mana? And this Mana seems like…’

Ji-hoon swept his eyes, looking through his squad members. “Alright, Let’s rest for a bit before we advance.”

“Yes, Leader~nim.”

“Okay, Hyung.”

“Yes, Ji-hoon~si”

But before they could even rest and sit. The hunters got horrified by Ji-woo’s warning.

“Get away from the corpse, now! FAST!!”

All the people close to the dead Silver Wolf don’t have time to be surprised or angry at Ji-woo.

Because at the next moment, there was poison from the carcass. Even the squad leader twitched seeing the poison.

“Everyone! Cover your nose and move away!”

As a result of the sudden warning. All hunters, who were close to Silver Wolf’s corpse, scattered around erratically.

“Sh*t, Why the f*ck this time we meet a poison beast?!” Ji-hoon cursed in disdain, seeing the black coloring poison spread in the air.

Meanwhile, Ji-woo busied himself to save the other Porters with Eun-bi.

“How did you know about the poison?”

“Don’t have time to explain! We better move if we don’t want to get in trouble!”

At the same time, Ji-woo saved the other Porter. He got goosebumps and got a bad feeling after fleeing away from the Silver Wolf.

That was why Ji-woo only told Eun-bi to move rather than explain.

At the moment, Eun-bi helped the Porters to stand up. Ji-woo then became too hectic looking over the place to find the source of his foreboding.

The other hunters got occupied to avoid the Black poison from the Silver Wolf carcass. It was making them not aware of their surroundings.

Owooooo, Awuuuuu–

What Ji-woo was worried about finally came true.

There was a group of Silver Wolves appearing on the hill near where currently Squad 7 was located.

About 13 beasts were apparent on that hill, their white fur shining brightly under the light of the moon.

The 13 Silver Wolves, looking at all of the hunters below. The beasts gritted their teeth.

Grr, Grrr–

Anyone under the hill was shivering after being stared at by the Silver Wolves.

Seeing one Silver Wolf couldn’t be compared to seeing 13 Silver Wolves with saliva in their mouth.

“Sh*t!”

“F*ck, they look scary!”

“D*mn it!”

“Prepare for the encounter!”

Jun Ji-hoon had a good wit and fast response to the situation as leader of Squad 7 of the Demigod guild. He ordered his second in command to act.

“Ya! Park Jung-nam, gather the kids! Don’t fight them alone! Try to form a 3-man team to fight 1 of the Silver Wolf. Do it!” Ji-hoon counted this as his worst day in the dungeon.

“Yes, Hyung~nim!”

Park Jung-nam then moved around the trees. He tried to connect with every member of Squad 7 around the area.

Wosh, Wosh–

The Silver Wolves maneuver with their swift movement, and after that, they nowhere to be found at the hill.

“Jung-nam~ah, FASTER! They are on the move already!”

While other hunters seek to assemble their members, Ji-woo’s face showed a grim expression because of the development of the event.

Ji-woo had the power to exterminate this pack of wolves. However, carelessly displaying his strength was like inviting a thousand troubles for him when he had no intention of becoming a fighter anymore.

The hunters might inquire about his family too. Regarding Ji-woo’s power and disturbed their ordinary life.

Ji-woo didn’t want to bring unnecessary problems to his home. Especially to his mother.

“Eun-bi~si, listen carefully! Bring these Porters to your leader, and don’t engage against that when you’re alone? Got it?”

“But… Ji-woo~si…, how about you…?”

“GOT IT!” Ji-woo yelled at her. He didn’t have time to sweat talking Eun-bi when the time was critical now.

Before Eun-bi went to her Squad 7 leaders, they heard the scream of the first victim.

Owooooo, Awuuuuu–

“Arrrkkkhhhhhhhhhhh, Help….”

Srek, Srek–

Ji-woo could hear some of the hunters got torn apart by the Silver Wolves.

The Porters and Eun-bi feel the fear from the beasts in their mind, stopping the movement.

Luckily, Ji-woo snapped them out of fear. “GO! Don’t just stay here!” Ji-woo’s loud voice forced the Porters and Eun-bi to move their legs.

Now, Ji-woo was being left alone. He was planning to wipe all of those beasts as fast as possible.

“Park Jung-nam! Where the f*ck*ng are you? Are you not done yet?!”

Jun Ji-hoon called for his second in command for help. Right now, he was fighting against 3 Silver Wolves alone.

Hosh, Hosh–

“This wolf b*stard!”

Ji-hoon was already tired and felt heavy with his broadsword. His hand trembled after blocking 3 Silver Wolf fast attacks a few times. He even became passive to defend since their sharp teeth and claws could tear him apart if he let his guard down just for a moment.

On Park Jung-nam’s side, five Silver wolves were facing eight hunters, including him.

Almost all of them had slight wounds around their body.

“We need to regroup with Ji-hoon Hyung first. Which one of you still has more Mana left and can do the fire magic spells?”

Hosh, Hosh–

Their tedious breath could get heard among them. Even the Silver Wolves took the fight in a relaxed manner and circled at a slow pace.

Another hunter answered Park Jung-nam after taking a deep inhale. “I am, but I need 5 seconds to charge it. It’s best if I’m not disrupted in the middle of that if we hope for the maximum outburst from my fire magic spells.”

Park Jung-nam didn’t look back and spoke with a calm attitude. “Do it now, 7 of us while protecting you. The rest of you, take all your breath and ready to fight again.”

“The Magic of Fire!” The hunter starts his spell.

“NOW! Make them busy and gather them in one spot!”

Park Jung-nam gave them the order.

“Yes, sir!”

“Yes!”

“Yes, Hyung~nim.”

The other seven hunters charged at the 5 Silver Wolf.

First, They planned to separate the Silver Wolf.

Clank, Clank–

The sound of a sword clashing with the sharp teeth and claw of the wolves

Ting, Ting–

“Gather Now!” Park Jung-nam gave the second instruction.

All of them round up while their backs were facing each other.

The Silver Wolves, seeing them in one spot, immediately jump with their teeth opened.

“Disperse!”

The seven hunters that gathered jump all over the place, avoiding the Silver Wolf teeth.

Keuhk, Keuhk–

Some of them injured their backs while performing the roll motion, while others injured their low jumps and fell with their fronts on the ground.

The Silver Wolves landed on the spot and took a turn to look at the hunters.

“NOW!” Park Jung-nam cried out loud.

“Magic of fire, Feuerstob!”

Swosh, Booom–

Bang!

The fire blew up on the Silver Wolves’ spot.
