Chapter 375 Deoras' Weird Story-Telling

The scorpion swung its tail toward Deoras, to which Deoras used [Shadow Restrain] - A skill that allows the host to paralyze or freeze the target for five seconds. The limit of the skill is a five-level difference – five levels above the host's rank.

After paralyzing the scorpion, Deoras dashed towards it and used his shadow slash from the side beheading the scorpion.

Blue-coloured blood stuck to his fur as the fountain of blue gushed out of the scorpion's body.

At that time doors became careless thinking that the scorpion was dead. The tail of the scorpion started to speed its way in the direction of Deoras, who had let his guard down, after beheading the scorpion.

The scorpion's tail was about to pierce Deoras's heart but it wasn't so fast that he couldn't dodge it.

In fact, Deoras was going to use a strong attack this time to try and finish the scorpion in one strike, but before he could use any other skill, all of a sudden Shin appeared in between them, facing the scorpion.

Two seconds later, the scorpion was dead!

What Shin did was just launch a lethal Aero Slash at the scorpion, slicing its head off of its body.

But the scorpion still showed slight movements seeing which, Shin launched ten to twenty Aero Slashes, cutting its body into pieces and ensuring that it was actually dead by checking the system.

Shin then looked at Deoras and nodded saying to him that the scorpion was finally dead.

Deoras on the other hand just smiled when he heard this and stood as if he saw this coming.

He then commanded other wolves to kill the rest of the scorpions who had become slower due to lack of morale as their king was dead.

Soon all the other wolves killed the remaining scorpions who were devastated and made almost no movements. Alas, they were butchered mercilessly.

After killing all the scorpions, the wolves started to eat their meat, and everyone had to say one thing for sure - The meat was very delicious.

Even Shin was amazed by how delicious it was, as he stuffed his mouth with the gravity king's meat.

It was night time so they had to go to sleep, but now that they had faced an enemy and defeated them, all the sleep and tiredness had faded away.

The shadow wolves, who had initially surrounded Shin, moved a bit closer as if they were now surrounding Deoras.

Apparently, Deoras was going to start a story or a tale to keep them entertained.

Deoras's face went serious. Shin was surprised because he had never seen Deoras having such a serious expression.

Even when he was fighting against stronger opponents in the Clan Wars, he was never so serious!

And… he started narrating a story…

"Have you ever heard about the Wandering soul of this desert? The one and only ruler of the desert?", Deoras asked everyone to which a confused look appeared on Shin's face.

"He takes the wolf cubs with him in the night. The ones who don't sleep especially…"

"Master Deoras, should we sleep then?", suddenly one of the wolves asked to which Deoras looked at him as if he was looking at a stupid wolf.

"No, you have to protect his highness throughout the night…"

"And first of all, are you a wolf cub?"

"Huh! Tell me!"

"Are you all wolf cubs?", Deoras asked to which the other shadow wolves seemed very embarrassed.

Shin just sighed as he looked at the drama. Deoras reminded him of a foolish kid who kept on making up his own story.

What surprised Shin, even more, was that the other wolves were readily believing Deoras.

Shin just shook his head as he looked at the beautiful night sky once again.

Deoras proceeded with telling the story while Shin couldn't bother much but sleep.

He just asked them to rest too, but they were awake the entire night – they were wolves after all.

Soon the night passed in a blink of an eye as the ray of sunlight made a contact with the ground.

Shin and the other wolves once again started to walk toward their destination.

'I hope that we don't find any more trouble in our journey.', Shin wished for this, but he knew that trouble would come looking for them even if they didn't do anything as they were on quite a dangerous path.

As mentioned, it seemed like trouble had some kind of affection for him.

Suddenly out of nowhere, a sandstorm appeared which could easily blow away even a heavy Rhino.

"Quickly hide in my shadow!", Shin said to which all the shadow wolves used their skills and jumped into Shin's shadow. Deoras first seemed hesitant but when Shin ordered him in a strict voice he didn't have any choice other than entering Shin's shadow.

Shin then used his skill – Hurricane, in hopes of counterbalancing the sandstorm but to his despair, it just increased the force of the wind, completely blowing him away.

Shin quickly closed his eyes and used the hurricane in hopes that the sandstorm wouldn't push him away from their original path.

He was levitating in the air due to the strong wind when he decided to use not just one, but multiple Hurricanes which would counterbalance each other and would also move in the opposite direction of the sand storm and at least slow it down.

Shin cast multiple hurricanes and sent them toward the sandstorm which looked more like a sand tornado from the opposite side and this time he was successful, unlike the previous time when he just increased the force of the storm. Shin slowly landed on the ground with the help of the hurricane while still closing his eyes.

Once he did open his eyes the screen in front of him completely bewildered him greatly. The trouble only got bigger!

There were hundreds of cacti around him.

He had landed on a lot of them too, bleeding quite a lot. Thanks to the Pain Nullification, just minor wounds gave him no pain, but HP did decrease a bit.

It was nothing as he had the skill Heal which he instantly used.
