The first battle part -5
John was stopped by the creature it had made a large tree fall down infront of him.
John turned around sweat already filling his clothes.
The creature which was wolf like with blackfur all over and with its crimson eyes was just staring at him ... meancingly.
John was already panicking from inside his instinct was telling to be ready for some grusome attacks from this monster.
"This should be that wolve monster's clans boss ".
He just whispered softly to himself.
Suddenly, the wolf boss eyes which were crimson red glowed more bloody red.
The gem like thing with green hue also glowed.
Then wolf boss stood up and released a earth shaking howl
"Aaaahuuuuu"
Causing slight tremor all around the area surrounding it.
On the nearby trees all birds flew away
In panic squeaking loudly as warning
Other animals to not come nearby this
Area.
John was too much startled to react
Even that boar didn't caused tremor and risked to deaf his ears but this monster is too powerful.
Now the question has shifted from will I able to defeat it to....
"..... Will ....I survive... This monster?"
"...Nah..I will win..."
He spoke while smiling but that smile was hollow...
He would have chance to change the tide of the battle.....
If he had proper body instead of a child's body and to add a bonus point on that he was physically below average.
He would have a chance if he had
magic or some kind of system from novels to guide him.
But alas.... He didn't have any of that
Whether cheatskill of system or proper
Healthy body .... Or magic.
Hell, he didn't even had a small dagger
And his stone made spear was broken what was remaining with him?
The battle between both of them was
Indeed very unfair.
One side is a boss level monster.
With high physical ability.
With also magical ability he didn't knew
About.maybe one ?maybe more than
He could possibly count...
Also highspeed and keen sense because he was not able to sense it at all when it has approached him earlier.
And on the other side of the battle is...
A kind and handsome hero swordsman?
A young and beautiful but powerful
Mage girl?
Or a wise and old wizard or a brave knight with his powerful sword?
Nope none of them instead it is...
A child of around eight or nine with frail
Body .
Very weak physically below average.
No magic ability.
He is no wise.... Doesn't knows a thing about the bosswolf's ability because he
Doesn't have "status check" thing with
Him.
Only advantage he has is that his soul is of a person from modern earth around 22 yrs old who had weebed on animes and novels and videogames so
He had little idea about monster fights.
But this was only advantage he had gotten.
Nothing other and more than that.
He knewed that will die here afterall there is no chance that somebody will
Come to rescue him here in this damn forest.
It has been more than three months since in this forest and no one came
Not even a damn human ghost .
He would have believed that humans didn't existed here on this planet but because of his memories he knows that they existed but very far away from this land and area.
As that beast's head was growing it released some type of attack.
A magical attack a wind spell just like
From novels.
But this attack had a reddish outline to it and the attack was visible.
John jumped from his place and dodged it .
The wind sphere went in straight motion and crashed into giant tree behind cracking it up instantly like a sharp axe splitting up wood.
John now was fully focused on the movements of the beast he stared at it
Fully looking out for even smallest of movement from the beast.
After all his life depends on it .
His second life depends on it.
He just don't wanted to die that easily
Even though eventually he succumb
To his body giving up but until then
He should give a try ... Atleast a try to survive.
He can die atleast honourable death instead of cowardly death right?
"Nope nope think positive jai you will survive this..." He spoke trying to reassure himself but internally he knew
It was not enough.
His bravery would not make win this battle.
The beast now staring at him it's gaze
Piercing him sizing him up how much
Power it should use to take this puny
Weakling.
Both were staring each other and now their eyes met each .
The showdown begins.
A battle between two completely opposite forces.
Like two sides of an coin.
A fiercely strong wolf against a frail human child with no magic.
A cruel twist of fate and bad luck.
The beast made its move first casting a wind spell with same redness outlined on its borders . A wind sphere was made then a another one and then another and then another one.
Total four wind spheres were made floating silently in the air waiting for their master's orders.
John gulped hard his throat throbbing but still his mind on full overdrive trying to find a way to come out this crisis.
He was anxious seeing four windballs but it was still slightly manageable because of his VR gaming skills.
The beast hissed a command for spell release the four balls of wind flew all directly towards John .
John stood there and then dodged the windballs all camed together where he was standing and this time it combined into one big ball and busted .
A sharp wave of wind came from this magical explosion sending John crashing down backwards.
John stood up his clothes had torned up due to attack.
The wolf now started to released wind magic one by one sometimes sending
One windball big or small.
Sometimes sending two to three windballs.
And sometimes multiple small windballs size of small tennis balls and more smaller.
It was like that beast was not fighting it was toying with him enjoying the thrill
Or its prey suffering.It was like a hunter
Letting its prey run just for the thrill of it
To have more fun.
Also the beast was smart it was playing a long game in which he had zero confidence in it was his stamina.
Beast seemed to recognise it was exploiting it thoroughly.
John was constantly dodging all the major big attacks but it was waning his body out it was like a thousand cuts to him not metaphorically but quite literally.
His shirt had many cuts and from some of them blood was visible.
Mainly from big attacks which combined together and blasted itself
Sending a shockwave of wind which was not deadly but quite lethal cutting through his shirt and piercing his body .
But he could all do was dodge right now.
I can't continue like this I will die out certainly sooner or later I have to come up with plan that also fast he thought.
While to continuously dodging attacks
His frail body has started to give up on him .
The wounds small but dozens of them were starting to take toll.
His body got slower during that time
a fatal mistake.
A small wind ball from a group of countless one came directly towards his chest alarmed he tried to dodge it
But.... It was too late .
The ball camed and crashed into his right hand.
A strong pain felt by his body like a tremor felt by a house during a earthquake.
He looked at his hand all bloodied a strong pain strucked him never in his life he had felt a pain like that until now
He could feel similar dizziness his right hand was utterly destroyed his two fingers ring and pinky fingers were not more his middle finger half shattered a bone could seen bright white barely holding onto his remaining part of finger.
A small mistake and a big prize he was paying right now.
His right hand was now numb and no more . the beast seemingly looking at its prey in pain stopped it's attack looking at him like a cat seenig a mouse
Before sending it into oblivion.
John thought up.
Finally a idea camed to his mind .
His bag .... His magical bag which he had putted in river for refilling more than hour should have passed now so the jet of water should be sufficient because it could kill a boar so a wolf was also easy
Kill John thought.
Finally a plan to come out this crap and thankfully we are near riverbank so just some seconds and I would reach into river.
Seeing that beast was just staring at him not attacking he decided to make a run for it.
He retreated slowly and made a run as fast as he could with his weakling of his body .
The beast seemingly watching it's prey go away didn't released a windball attack instead it got up this time wind with red hue coming out of its nostrils
And then with a whoosh it went like a wind itself and it was behind John just metres away from him and swinged it's paw in flashing speed.
The paw emited a windslash attack that directly hitting him squarely on his back
Tearing apart his clothes blood ozzing out staining his white shirt the damage was so severe for John that he coughed up blood from his mouth while crashing on the ground.
He was gravely injured now his right hand gone and now his back bloodied
Will he survive ....? He thought.
To be continued....
