Chapter 47 - The Flashback - Part 2: Appearance Of The Half-Dragon Wolf

On seeing the advice, Shin understood that the situation was dire.

Also, he hadn't used the skill Transformation until now, not even once. Therefore, he had to take a look at its details.

Needless to say, the advice was in his best interest and he knew that too. There could be thousands of advice generated by the system, but the system particularly chose one so there could be some catch to it!

His eyes started to emit white light. 

'Ding'

[ You have used the skill Transformation ]

[ Choose the one to which you would like to be transformed ]

[ -> Midnight Wolf ]

[ -> Dark Wolf ]

[ -> Flame Wolf ]

[ -> Half-Dragon Wolf ]

Needless to say, he had to choose the Half-Dragon wolf and he did the exact same.

"I choose Half-Dragon wolf!", he exclaimed after raising his voice while running towards Siara.

Of course, he howled but that didn't intimidate anyone. Well, that was to be expected, his howling was nowhere near the actual a.d.u.l.t wolves since he was a pup.

But that was more than enough to grab their attention towards Shin.

Everyone, almost all of them turned their attention towards Shin. Indeed, that included Siara too.

Although she was lying on the ground while waiting for her death, she heard the howl and looked almost immediately in the direction of the voice only to find Shin.

There was a raised piece of land or plaza from where Shin jumped. It was from this place that he saw Siara surrounded by the Bears.

'Ding'

[ Command accepted ]

[ Transformation will commence at once ]

He was in mid-air when suddenly the notification popped up again. Right after that, his body started to emit an intense amount of white light.

It was bright, but not blinding. Needless to say, the light didn't reach many areas. 

"What is that?", asked one of the bears.

They were definitely shocked by the howl earlier and were now baffled by the light.

Siara's eyeballs were shaking as she saw Shin transform into something unimaginable.

His limbs grew longer and his body became larger. Large claws appeared in his paws which eventually became as hard as metal and turned into black color.

The small tiny tail which Shin had grown longer. The tip of the tail now had a diamond-like shape with a similar claw-like structure which was also of black color!

His entire tail was white except the tip. The body was larger but was white.

Needless to say, his face grew larger and his teeth became sharper and stronger.

Black scales started growing over his body like armor. Soon enough his face was covered with armor too leaving only his eyes open.

And, the eyes had turned yellow with a think black pupil which resembled the eyes of a dragon. 

Now, his body was totally covered by scales which indeed acted like armor. The only parts that were exposed were his mouth, limbs, ears, tail, and eyes. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was a dragon but the fact was that he was a half-dragon!

"D-dragon?"

"What is a dragon doing here?"

Suddenly all the bears fell in chaos, They started running here and there. They were perplexed and confused at the moment.

Of course, dragons had wings but there were dragons that were devoid of wings and Shin resembled one of them.

"Stop everyone! What are you scared of?", the Bear King raised his voice n such a manner that the chaos turned onto silence in just a second.

He roared after all on seeing which everyone stopped and turned their attention to him.

The Bear King was very much distinct from the remaining ones. As Lan had reported, only the Higher level Bears were present here. Therefore, almost all of them were quite huge. But the King was way more huge than them.

Probably Siara had sensed this due to which she asked the seven-member squad to run instead of fight back.

"He is just a normal wolf! What are you all scared of?", he asked in a dominant tone.

"A normal wolf?"

"He is a normal wolf?"

They started questioning and asked each other the same thing to verify if they had heard it right.

They easily believed him because they had seen a small figure of a wolf before the appearance of the dragon form. That was probably Shin's mistake, if he had transformed into a dragon and then appeared, there might have been no openings but oh well, what's done is done, now there was no use in thinking about the spilled milk!

'Damn...', but Shin did have to worry now.

He could have used the chaos to his advantage to rescue Siara but it seemed like the chaos subsided too early.

"Then what is the beast in front of us, Your Highness? Isn't it a dragon?", asked one of the Greater Bears.

"..."

The Bear King had to answer that because the beast was now in front of them. He had to come up with an answer because if he happened to fail to answer, then the entire army would fall into chaos once again.

"He is a Wolf with Illusion attribute!", he sid this loudly after thinking for a moment.

The bears believed that almost immediately. The reason was that they couldn't feel any aura from Shin, of course, that was because his Aura control skill was activated to max which was concealing his aura.

Also, a dragon wouldn't possibly wander in such low-level forests after all. If it did, then all the beasts would have evacuated or escaped by now!

"Yes, he is no dragon! He is a wolf! An Illusion wolf!"

"Everyone, let's just kill him for tricking us!", said one of the Greater Wolves.

'Damn, this isn't looking good...'

'The tide has turned, I'm completely sure that I am not strong enough to defeat them, at least not these many bears!'

'What should I do? Maybe the tide was never in my favor, to begin with...'

'Should I just escape?' 

And just when he was thinking that, to his surprise, a notification popped up.

'Ding'

[ Congratulation ]

[ You have... ]
