A thick, suffocating presence seeped into the battlefield, and a larger Shadow Wolf slowly joined the battle. Anywhere it passed, the warriors were frozen in fear, then died from sheer terror.
Gomen's expression hardened, and he quickly met up with his uncle, Cassius.
"Do you think it's King Stage?" He asked, his expression grim.
Cassius observed the advancing wolf, then shook his head.
"Rank Three Master Stage on the verge of breaking through. It will be very hard to kill."
Gomen sighed in relief, "Then that means we can kill it if we work together."
Cassius wasn't so hopeful. Still, there was no other choice than fighting. The two men pulled their weapons and charged at the wolf.
"Wind tornado!"
Elder Cassius's wind technique slammed against the wolf, and it was pushed back by a few steps.
'Only that?' Gomen was surprised, but didn't really let it affect him.
He sliced at the wolf's body, his attacks leaving behind water bubbles on the wounds.
