Digitize: Rebirth of the Silver Death God

Chapter 145: Midnight Gray Werewolf

Within the core sectors of the Labyrinth of Horrors, a fierce battle was in progression between four individuals and a pack of giant wolves with gray fur, each emanating a dense murderous desire. While the party of four fled as they bravely fought, slaughtering more than a dozen of these wolves, there were signs that more would still spring out of the hazy surroundings to hinder their movement.

"Spiraling Whiplash!"

Ivy said as she cracked her whip, twirling it when she jumped into the air; the whip smacked onto the bodies of a few gray wolves, breaking into their skin as it secreted a poisonous substance into their being.

As affected by the attack, the wolves slowed down, showing signs of weakness. They wanted to retreat and recover, but sadly for them, Elly, Ivy, and Mikan had swiftly acted.

A dense collection of petals had formed around Elly before scattering about the area, each having an unparalleled sharpness that swept through the bodies of most of the wolves, severing them into bits of pieces.

Much like Elly, Mikan's and Ivy's attacks had similarly annihilated their opponents. Still, it was only done through the combined efforts as Ivy's dagger was coated with a layer of Mikan's ominous poison. She used her uncommon speed to dance about the area stabbing into the extra wolves' bodies, the position being so strong that it turned their bodies into mush.

"Whew, is that the last of them?"

Lily asked as she wiped the sweat from her forehead with her forearm that firmly held onto her dagger.

"I don't know, but I don't think we should stay here for long as they still outnumber us. While we might have had a few strength increases, I'm still getting a bad feeling about this area; besides, that big one still hasn't attacked again, so we have to hurry and try to find the exit for this labyrinth."

Mikan said with a deep look on his face as he stared around, noticing the wolf silhouettes that glared at them from the haze; it seemed that they had temporarily stopped their onslaught of attacks as if hindered by something.

"Right, let's do that," Lily said in agreement with his words; she also recalled the most savage wolf of them all that chased them all the way until they met up with Elly and Ivy, forcing her to show a hint of fear in her eyes.

Ivy also agreed, but her eyes had a trace of missing when she looked at the direction they had run from as if trying to peer past the shrouding haze to seek out a familiar form.

Lily also noticed her look; she glanced at her and spoke, "Ivy, don't go worrying over that bastard; if anyone will be fine in this place, it's going to be him."

Ivy bit her lips before replying with a low grunt, Mikan seeing his sister like this frowned with a look of anger in his eyes, glaring in the direction she had stared as he snorted, saying nothing.

Unlike them, however, Elly had remained silent, staring at her glowing peach-colored sword, which had just returned to normal; the look on her face was one of excitement as she spoke her thoughts out loud, "Yes, I've finally caught up to that rascal, hehe! I want to see the look on his face!"

Ivy, Lily, and Mikan gave Elly a curious look; when Elly saw their looks and found out her mistake, her face turned red with embarrassment, but this quickly changed as she hurriedly made a poker face and spoke.

"W... well, let's go, everyone, we can't keep staying"

Elly was about to say something, but as if she sensed something, her face sunk as she looked towards the side.

Much like Elly, Mikan and the other girls also had a drastic change in their expressions as they glanced in a similar direction. It was unknown when the leading wolf with a black chain collar with the marking's 'pet' appeared. It stood upright with its long and sharp claws gleaming in a baleful ray as it glared at their party.

"Damn! So, it's finally attacking again!"

Mikan cursed in anger, as Ivy and Lily had stern looks on their faces, but as thy reacted in such a manner, the Midnight Gray Werewolf seemed to have been provoked by their words.

Awooooooo!

With a savage howl, it didn't waste a single moment as it dashed towards them single-handedly, its magic power pushing away the haze from their immediate surroundings along with the winds that formed due to its high-speed charge.

Elly and the others didn't even have the time to be shocked for long; they promptly recovered from their daze and swiftly acted.

"Not good, don't get distracted! Ivy, Mikan, seal its movements! Lily, we'll strike it together!"

Elly yelled as she gathered her magic power, causing her sword to glow in a brilliant peach-colored radiance.

As if the Midnight Gray Werewolf sensed the threat coming from Elly's sword, its body made a swooshing sound as he charged towards her at maximum speed, its claws shining in bright and sinister light as it prepared to bring her down before she could use her attack.

Lily's forehead ran with sweat as she gathered her full power into her dagger, causing it glow brightly as she stared at the monster in silence, but as for the others, they promptly acted.

"You're not going anywhere, Poison Field!"

Mikan said as he stretched his arm forward, causing the ground below the Midnight Gray Werewolf to turn sludgy as if it were quicksand. The Midnight Gray Werewolf seemed to have sensed the danger beforehand; before the ground had transformed, it had tapped the ground with its feet, pushing itself into the air.

However, as if Ivy had predicted this, she lashed her whip towards it, wrapping around its airborne body before using her entire strength to smash it down into the sludgy earth of poison.

With a splashing sound, the Midnight Gray Werewolf fell right into the center of the Poison Field; it struggled for a bit before its body exploded with dense magic power, forcing away most of the sludgy field as it was only moments from escaping.

Yet, right at this time, Elly's eyes flashed sharply as a smug smile came on her face when she held her sword up to her face while thinking, 'Vile thing, witness my pow'

Elly wanted to have a moment to show off her current power, but sadly for her, it would seem that she was a moment too late, as a series of baleful crimson arcs swept from a distance, slicing into the body of the Midnight Gray Werewolf, before vanishing.

The Midnight Gray Werewolf didn't even seem to notice the change, before it could even react, its entire body started to fall to pieces, spewing out its blood and entrails into the sludgy field.

A look of alarm came across everyone's face, but when they stared in the direction of the source and saw the silver-haired form, they each showed strange expressions, even more so for Elly who now had an unparalleled amount of sourness on her face as she shouted, "You rascal!"
