Chapter 170
The laugh was echoing through the cave making it hard for the others to pinpoint where it was coming from but they all instantly knew who it was.
The laughter started to strike fear into their hearts and minds as memories came rus.h.i.+ng back to them of what had happened in the arena.
"It looks like we meet again dear students of Avrion"
"What do you want!" Gary shouted as he felt his legs start to go week.
"What I want is simple, the downfall of Avrion city. It has been my wish for the longest time. Unfortunately, my master has told me he has greater plans and in return, he will help me with my wish, which means you all need to die!"
Morfran began to gather lightning in his hands which allowed the others to see him clearly. He was wearing the same armour and helmet he had the last time they had met and he looked just as frightening.
"let's get rid of the troublesome one first."
A bolt of lightning flew from Morfran's hand and immediately landed on Jack's chest sending him flying backward.
"I won't make the same mistake last time!" Morfran said as he rushed forward towards Jack lying on the ground.
The light crystals started to work once again and the others could see clearly. Gary was able to predict Morfran's actions and had managed to reach Jack before Morfran but Morfran was unafraid and cast a lightning sword of his own.
Gary then swung his sword and at the same time, Morfran swung his. When the two swords collided, suddenly, Morfran's sword had disappeared. Morfran quickly jumped back a few steps.
"Where on earth did you get that sword!" Morfran Shouted.
Badger and Sloth then both approached from behind ready to attack but just like last time Morfran's armor had acted on its own and electrocuted the two. Only this time they did not fall and continued to
"You little runts," Morfran said as he grabbed the two by the head and electrocuted them once again.
"Let them go!" Jack shouted.
He had recovered quickly and immediately saw that Badger and Sloth were in danger and started to charge in. Morfran threw the two of them to the side and once again created a sword of his own out of lightning.
Jack swung his great sword down and it collided with the lightning sword. However, when the two collided electric shocks started to be sent through to Jack's body. Jack felt pain through every bit of his body and was paralyzed unable to move.
"Get off him!" Gary shouted.
"You are not special, only your sword is." With his other hand free Morfran started to fire thunderbolts continuously in Gary's direction.
Gary did his best to deflect each shot. When he deflected with his dark sword nothing happened but when deflecting with his other sword the electric shock pa.s.sed through the sword and hit Gary's body sending him flying back hitting the cave wall.
Gary, Badger, and Sloth, were too hurt to move but they weren't unconscious, all they could do now was watch Jack screaming in pain from being constantly electrocuted.
They knew Jack's body was strong but this attack was different. It didn't matter how strong Jack's body was the lightning attacks were affecting him inside just as it did everyone else.
Then something strange started to happen. A power started to surge through Jack's body. His heart started to beat faster and his eyes were starting to change shape.
Jack was changing and the others were seeing this as well. A silver Fur had started to grow around Jack's body, his teeth had become deadly fangs, his face had turned into a snout but his body remained that of a human only two times bigger than he was before.
"HE'S A FREAKING WEREWOLF!" Gary shouted as he was reminded once again about a legendary beast he read about in Lenny steel's book.
The lightning suddenly wasn't effecting Jack so much anymore. He dropped his giant Great sword and grabbed Morfran by the shoulder.
"You filthy beast, let go of me!" Morfran shouted.
Then Jack quickly placed his other hand on Morfran's shoulder and lifted his two leg's kicking Morfran with all his strength, sending him back into the cave wall.
Jack quickly looked around the room to see where the others where. He first went to grab Sloth and Badger and placed them on his back. He then went towards Gary and carried him under one arm.
Jack moved at a lightning-fast speed and Badger and Sloth had to hold on as tight as they could, otherwise they would have fallen off already.
Morfran then picked himself up and immediately started to fire thunderbolts at Jack but Jack was simply too fast. Jack was able to dodge each attack with ease but instead of fighting, he decided to head back the way they had come from.
"What are you doing Jack?" Gary complained. "Kill the guy, if we finish him off now he can never bother us again."
Jack then managed to growl out a reply.
"Grwaant Charrnging backk."
Jack was struggling to speak with his now large mouth and large teeth but he still tried his best.
"You stupid wolf I can't understand you."
Jack continued to Run following the path they had taken on their way here. What had taken them hours to transverse before was taking them only a few minutes. Jack also now had perfect eyesight in the dark and there was no need for him to use his sense of smell or the light crystal.
Badger and sloth would contently look behind them, checking to see if anything or anyone had followed them but it looked like Jack had long lost Morfran.
Finally, they had eventually returned to the stone bridge they were on once before and slowly Jack's body started to return to normal and as it did, his body collapsed onto the ground.
"You did well." A voice said.
As Jack lifted up his head he smiled and replied.
"Thanks' boss."
