Chapter 1050 A Gray Wolf
Chapter 1050 A Gray Wolf
Rufus' POV: The invisible barrier shielded me from the outside. No one could set up such an enchanted barrier except for witches and wizards.
I took a couple of steps back and closed my eyes as I willed the lycan power in my body to feel around my surroundings and take in whatever detail was worth noting. I could tell that the barrier had just been set up, and that the air inside was much denser than in other areas.
I opened my eyes and had a theory of my own. It was probably Crystal
No outsider was allowed to step foot in this place, and it was far away from the imperial palace. Crystal said she just got lost and stumbled here? What a big fat lie!
If it hadn't been for my informant, I would never have guessed that she would come to the forbidden forest, either. But why had she come? And how could a person who had lived at the border for most of her life be so familiar around this place?
I only grew more confused the more I pondered it. I was beginning to suspect that the she-wolf had something to do with the witches, after all. Otherwise, why was there a new enchanted barrier shortly after Crystal had visit?
Just as I was about to look into the matter more closely, I suddenly heard a noise from the nearby bushes. I immediately became vigilant. "Who is there?" I called out.
A figure flashed through the trees. It didn’t look like human, but rather like a giant beast.
I held my breath and sharpened my senses, and then I slowly walked toward it.
The forest was quiet save for the soft rustle of the leaves above me. If I hadn't seen the shadowy monster for myself, I would have thought that I was just hearing things.
The next thing I knew, the huge beast had jumped out of the bushes up front and was lunging straight at me.
I was able to get a clear glimpse of it for a brief second and realized that it was a gray wolf with thick fur. I quickly stepped to the side to dodge its attack.
Thankfully, the wolf made no attempt to pounce on me again. Instead, it stood at the very spot I had just been in and stared at me.
My wolf, Omar, was yelling excitedly in my mind. "Rufus, let me out! I'll take care of that wolf! I haven't seen such an interesting prey in a long time. Although, this wolf looks like it would make a meager appetizer at most.”
I didn't respond. Instead, I calculated the amount of time it would take to kill this wolf. Despite Omar's words, the wolf wasn't small. Perhaps it would be better to attack it from the side.
I braced myself for the transformatiamwhen the gray wolf suddenly raised its head and let out along howl: Shortly after, two more> wolves appeared, flanking the first one omboth sides. These othertwo weresmaller and younger. They looked eager to kill. Did these rascals really think I wascthe prey here? They were certainly getting ahead of themselves.
I glared at thewolves, and belatedly felt that something wasn't right. Wild wolves livechin groups. How did =~ these thtee escape from their pack and come to this place? Besides; largeWild animals stayed away from theperipheral areas of the forbidden forest by instinct.
The three wolves peered at me, their eyes glinting. They let out a low, warning growl; their mouths already salivating
After some consideration, I asked the guard to go and get his comrades to search the area. It was unusual for wild wolves to be here. Something fishy must be going on.
As soon as the guard left, I prepared myself for battle.
The oldest walf, the one in the middle, slowly.approached me. Its eyes never Wavered from mine. I. was about to transform into a wolf when kwas interrupted yet again: To my surprise, the gray wolf plopped on.the ground in front of meand whimpered. Its huge tail was swinging from side to side.

I blinked at it in confusion. Did it not want to attack me?
