“How is it?”

“Do you feel that my speed has increased again?”

The Werewolf looked smugly in Harlen’s direction.

“No matter where you hide.”

“I can hear you.”

“I can smell you.”

“You can’t escape me.”

“Just wait to be torn apart!”

“Hahahahaha!!!”

The wolf leader’s laughter sounded very evil and uncomfortable.

Just as the werewolf leader was basking in the pride of his own speed…

Swish!

A tiny piece of wood flew past the face of the werewolf’s head at lightning speed, toward the wall behind it.

Following that, there was a “Dong!” sound as the fragile wooden strip made contact with the wall.

The entire wooden strip was deeply inserted into the wall.

However, all of this happened in an instant.

Only seconds later did the leader react to the piece of wood flying past his face.

“Eh…?”

“What was that?!”

The werewolf leader turned around to look behind him.

However, the entire area behind him was covered in dust.

Everything was a blur of gray.

The werewolf leader turned around, gazing in the direction the object had flown out from.

Within the dusty area ahead of him, there was a coin-sized hole in the air.

Slowly, the surrounding dust began to fill up the empty air hole, until all he could see was a uniformly gray area once again.

“What’s that?”

“What did you do?!”

The werewolf leader shouted fiercely in Harlen’s direction.

But at this moment, the werewolf leader discovered that there seemed to be a warm trickle flowing down his face where the unknown object had flown past his cheek.

Extending his sharp claws, the leader wiped away the liquid-like warmth on his cheek before observing it.

The moment he brought it close to his nose for a sniff, he immediately realized what it was, and he flew into a rage.

“This is—”

“You! You damned b*st*rd!”

“You actually caused my noble body to bleed.”

“Damn it!”

“You truly deserve to die!!!”

The werewolf leader roared angrily in Harlen’s direction.

After a few seconds, the latter’s voice sounded from the other side of the dust cloud.

“Ah… sorry.”

“I’m sorry.”

“I think I threw it a little too hard.”

Harlen apologized to the werewolf leader.

Then, he added a few more infuriating words.

“But I didn’t think that this would happen.”

“I’ve clearly controlled my strength to the minimum to throw it towards you.”

“I thought you’d be able to dodge the wooden plank.”

“What surprised me was that you couldn’t even dodge this.”

“You’re really a pair of boxers, tsk tsk.”

Harlen’s words stunned the werewolf leader who stood across the dusty room. He stopped walking toward Harlen and stood rooted to his spot.

“You said you threw the wood over?”

“What did you use to throw over?”

“Where did the wood pieces come from?”

The werewolf leader might have really been blinded by rage.

He actually asked Harlen where the wood came from?

Especially when there were a multitude of empty wine barrels, wooden tables, and wooden stools smashed all over the floor?

“Yeah, I threw it over.”

“I threw it with my hands.”

“Isn’t this entire place filled with empty wine barrels, wooden tables, and wooden stools?”

“You’ve been walking around this room for so long, haven’t you stepped on any yet?”

Harlen patiently replied to each of Wolf Head’s questions. In the end, he even questioned the werewolf leader.

Hearing Harlen’s reply, the werewolf leader was immediately on full alert.

“You said you threw it over with your hands?!”

“How can a human like you have such great strength?!”

“Even if you had used augmentation magic to strengthen it…”

“It can’t be faster than my reaction speed as a werewolf.”

“Not to mention being able to hurt my skin.”

The werewolf leader took a few steps back as he spoke.

When Harlen saw that the werewolf leader didn’t believe him, he spoke as though lecturing a student.

“There was once a big brother.”

“He was a bald man.”

“But he initially had a head full of thick black hair.”

“That big brother followed a set of high-intensity training methods that he invented himself. In the end, his physical strength was raised to the limit.”

“He became the strongest existence in the world.”

Harlen then introduced the training methods to the werewolf leader.

“I know his training method.”

“Let me tell you, and you can raise your opinion on it.”

Harlen sat on the wooden crate, propped his legs up, and began reciting.

“100 push-ups.”

“Mainly exercise the biceps and back muscles.”

“100 sit-ups.”

“Mainly training the abdominal muscles.”

“100 squats.”

“Mainly train the leg muscles and the explosive power of jumping.”

“A 10km run.”

“Mainly increase endurance and immunity.”

“Eh…?”

Harlen rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, trying to see if he had missed anything else.

“Oh?!”

“That’s right.”

“Also, don’t turn on the air conditioner in summer.”

“Don’t turn on the air conditioner even if it’s hot enough to make you melt into a puddle.”

Harlen rested his chin on his hand again, thinking.

After confirming that everything had been said, he clapped his hands.

The werewolf leader stayed where he was without moving a single step.

He listened carefully to Harlen’s explanation of the method to strengthen the body.

He was ready to practice on his own after he killed Harlen.

“Are you telling the truth?”

“Can this method really increase one’s physical strength?”

“Can anyone really become as strong as you?”

The werewolf leader kept questioning.

He was ostensibly doubtful of the certainty of this approach, but his feelings betrayed his doubt.

The werewolf leader had already done a simulation of himself training in his inner world.

By visualizing himself doing this training many times, he realized that there was a likelihood that there was an effect.

“Believe it or not, it’s up to you.”

“I’ve already told you such a powerful secret in person.”

“It’s up to you whether you want to do it or not.”

Harlen crossed his legs as he observed the changes in the direction of the werewolf leader.

It was to prevent the werewolf leader from launching another surprise attack.

The werewolf leader thought carefully about the process, and was convinced of its success in the end.

Since his simulation training in the inner world for such a short period of time had shown the effectiveness, then practicing in the real world could allow him to break through his shackles sooner or later, becoming a monarch of this country.

Thus, the werewolf leader spoke gratefully in Harlen’s direction.

“Thank you for telling me your powerful secret.”

“Thank you for sharing your training methods.”

“I believe you.”

As he spoke, the werewolf leader raised his pair of sharp, cold claws and prepared to launch a sudden attack.

“I can finally train my race to become stronger.”

“I no longer need to be restrained by others.”

“As much as I appreciate you sharing the training method…”

“You still have to die.”

With that, the werewolf leader disappeared with a swish.

He thrust his hand directly in Harlen’s direction!
