After Kane and his companions eliminated the two soldiers blocking their path, they quickly dashed outside.
Hoofbeats were close behind them, almost within arm's reach—if they didn't speed up, they'd lose their chance.
An arrow flying at lightning speed grazed Kane's fur, striking the ground ahead.
Kane, transforming back into his wolf form, had already exhausted his magic power.
This meant that in this battle, he had one more chance to change back into human form, but no more magic power to shift into the shape of a giant wolf.
Each transformation from human to wolf consumed magic power, whereas reverting from wolf back to human did not.
Dodging several arrows, the two rushed into the forest on the opposite side of the road.
The snowstorm was gradually ceasing; if they didn't shake off their pursuers before night ended, they truly wouldn't get away.
Or perhaps, eliminate them while night still cloaked the land.
