Chapter 8 - Throwing punches

Kai still couldn't believe that in a day alone, he had gotten three dragons, that money alone was what he normally spent in an entire month. His eyes gleamed.

But that wasn't the most of it, as the dragons, like the first one, caused his stream to be suggested to more people.

Kai watched as his stream grew from five hundred all the way to one thousand viewers.

[You have gained a new skill]

The streamer system wasted no time delivering his reward for the milestone. It still didn't end there, due to him having over a thousand viewers at the moment, his strength rose rapidly. He was at least twice as strong, or even far more.

He could feel it, the strength that was rushing through his veins. A smile formed on his face. "Let's go get that heirloom." He said and walked for the cave.

He stood at the entrance of the cave, then heard a low growl coming from inside. It was dimly lit, but he could make the outline of a wolf there. It lay on the ground inside and looked at Kai, eyes glowing.

It was much bigger than the other wolves for sure. It rose to its feet, standing at a staggering two meters tall, with fur that looked like needles.

It growled in a low voice and started walking toward Kai.

[LordGooner143: Damn, that's the alpha, kill it.]

[Savage-Rider22: This time I'll gift if you take it down]

[Green_Lord: I'm chipping in, take down the Alpha, and I'll gift and also promote your page on my channel, I have over a hundred thousand followers]

Kai looked at the messages that came in. This was a dream come true all at once, but first he had to defeat that wolf.

'I have some stat points I am yet to use, I should do that, whatever it takes to win this fight.' Kai thought.

"Assign three stats to strength, two to agility, and five to luck." He said quickly.

He recalled that his luck was the lowest here, and as a very well versed gamer, he knew that luck played a key role when it came to fights like this.

With the stats increased, he waited on the wolf, gripping his sword in a threatening manner to bait the wolf, and it worked. It growled and rushed forward.

"Not yet." Kai muttered under his breath as he watched the wolf get closer.

"Not yet."

"Not yet."

When the wolf was a meter away and its mouth was already wide open to finish off Kai, he moved, pushing himself to the side as fast as he could, while thrusting with his sword at the same time.

He evaded the attack and his sword stabbed into the side of the wolf, immediately drawing huge amounts of blood as the sword made a long cut due to the fact that the wolf was rushing forward.

Kai staggered backwards after that. He forced himself to get his footing and then looked up. His eyes met with that of the wolf. Its health bar showed, far larger than that of the other wolves, and it was a level eight wolf.

The wolf didn't attack again. It opened its mouth and then howled, a sonic howl so powerful it slammed into Kai, forcing him to grab his ears.

"Arghhhh!" He growled in pain. The howl caused him to get dizzy, everything was spinning, he struggled to keep his footing.

[You have suffered status effect, current state, dizzy]

Kai struggled to look ahead. He saw the wolf already lunging for him, but the dizzy effect was still turned on.

'Shit, shit.' Kai cursed in his mind, throwing himself to the side. The claw of the wolf dug into Kai's shoulder, blood gushed out.

"Arghhh!" Kai groaned in pain as he fell to the ground. He had evaded certain death, but he was far from safe.

[Status effect ended]

The pain had forced his mind to concentrate again. Kai pushed himself to his feet, gripping his sword with one hand as the wolf made a turn, rushing toward him.

"Screw you." Kai barked and slashed with all his strength. His sword cut the shoulder of the wolf deep, going all the way to the bone. The wolf slammed into him and slammed Kai into the wall.

Cough.

Kai coughed blood, his HP running down to half in an instant. He gritted his teeth, grabbing the sword still lodged in the shoulder of the wolf. Without hesitation, he pulled it to the side with all his strength, the metal bending with all resilience.

Kai didn't let up and pulled down even more, and finally the sword snapped in two. He gripped the broken sword and thrust it down toward the neck with all his strength. The sword dug into the skin, digging very deep.

The wolf roared in pain and rushed backwards, allowing Kai to be free. Kai dropped to his knees, the pain from the slam still in his body, but at least he had made it out.

The wolf thrashed in pain while Kai rose to his feet, eyes locked on the wolf, ready to end it all.

He balled his hands into fists and lunged forward way too fast. Before the wolf could react, he swung, his fist cutting through the air like a missile.

BAM!

Right into the head of the wolf, so hard that it tore the skin.

Kai's hands were torn from it, blood seeping, but he didn't relent. Attacking with the second fist one after the other, he landed punches, and then went as far as to attack vitals like the eyes and the nose until the face of the wolf was mangled.

The wolf staggered backwards, unable to keep itself standing. It fell backwards to the ground with a loud thud, the blood from it seeping out into a puddle under it.
