The Wolf King Falls (Please Follow-up Reads)

The territory was in utter ruin. Blood ran like rivers. There were livestock carcasses, human corpses, and even more wolf bodies strewn everywhere.

Levi put Frostmourne away, his expression grave.

"Bury the dead properly, send the wounded to Doctor George, deliver the unfinished beef, mutton, and wolf meat to my castle, and skin the wolves to sell to those fur merchants. Next, I'm going to tear this evil out by the roots and completely eliminate the scourge hiding around our territory."

Levi said to the old steward, Alford.

"Yes, Lord." The steward still had not recovered from what had just happened. The encounter had been far too terrifying.

Those bloodthirsty, horrifying wolves had appeared in a dark, seething mass.

Yet this young lord, barely in his teens, had been able to hunt and move among them with ease and calm.

It could not help but remind him of that cold, stern Black Serpent Knight, Baron Sode.

"He's looking more and more like Master," steward Alford murmured inwardly, then hurried off to work.

Levi and Knight Fred returned to the castle.

"Knight Fred, let these three fellows smell the Wolf King's blood on your sword." Levi brought Knight Fred to the courtyard, where three underage Northern Giant Bears, each the size of a Siberian Tiger, were playing.

"Little White, Little Grey, Little Fatty, come here."

Levi called out, and the Three Little Bears immediately came scampering over, tails practically wagging.

Over the past year, to keep these three bears fed, Levi's expenses had grown larger and larger. He and Knight Fred could eat a lot, but compared with these fellows, who needed at least a dozen kilograms of meat a day, it was nothing.

And the three of them were still only cubs. Once they reached adulthood, they would need nearly a hundred kilograms of meat a day; otherwise, they would not be able to sustain the consumption of those enormous bodies.

Raise bears for a thousand days, use bears for a single moment.

Levi had not raised these three rice buckets just to pet bears as pets. In this era of scarce resources, such extravagant hobbies and ideas could only be realized in dreams.

"Huff, huff." When the Three Little Bears saw Levi, they immediately pounced over happily and stood upright like people. Then Knight Fred let all three of them smell the Wolf King's blood on the Knight Sword in his hand.

After a year of Levi's training, with the help of [Wild Heart], Levi could clearly sense the Three Little Bears' thoughts.

And at this moment, after smelling the scent of that blood, the Three Little Bears immediately became agitated.

Levi also sensed the Three Little Bears' thoughts at once.

"You're saying this fellow killed your Three Brothers' mother?"

Levi asked.

Because all three bears were male, when Levi communicated with them, he was used to calling them the Three Brothers.

The Three Brothers nodded, rubbing their paws, eager to try.

Although they were still far from adulthood now.

Ordinary Mountain Sitting Wolves were already no match for them at all.

"Good. Then take me to find it now."

"Today, we'll avenge your mother, and my residents and soldiers."

Levi said coldly.

"After I wounded the Wolf King's hind leg with Ripple Power, it can't move easily. It definitely won't have gone far, and its strength has dropped. Now is indeed the best chance to beat a drowning dog. Once that Wolf King recovers, hunting it again will be difficult."

Knight Fred said.

"Then I'll trouble you, Lord Fred. Bring the ten strongest soldiers. We're going into the mountains... to hunt wolves."

After arranging the aftermath of this wolf disaster, Levi and the others followed behind the Three Brothers and set off toward the mountain.

Because the Wolf King's hind leg was injured, it had been bleeding the whole time.

That made it easier for the Three Brothers to follow the Wolf King's scent.

From the Wolf King's route, Levi could tell that this Wolf King was extremely intelligent. It kept trying to take detours, and several times, Levi and the others reached dead ends.

But relying on Levi's max-level hunting skills and the Three Brothers' powerful sense of smell, in the end, after some effort, Levi and the others still found the Wolf King's Lair in Black Mountain.

On a huge boulder, that enormous Wolf King was frantically tearing at a corpse. It belonged to a Mountain Sitting Wolf.

It was eating its own kind. After sensing Levi and the others approaching, it stopped moving and let out a howl. From all directions, dozens of Mountain Sitting Wolves began gathering around it.

At this moment, the Wolf King's eyes were blood-red as it stared at Levi's group with boundless ferocity. It noticed the Three Little Bears first. Just as it had guessed, this human had taken in those three bear cubs.

"What a beautiful creature. Unfortunately, you have to die."

Levi gazed at the Wolf King and sighed softly. Then he drew his bow and nocked an arrow. An Iron Arrow shot through the air! Bang! A Mountain Sitting Wolf blocked in front of the injured Wolf King and was blasted apart by the arrowhead, dying on the spot.

The Wolf King's terrifying, icy gaze fixed on Levi.

Levi felt as though he were not facing a beast, but a person.

And with the Wolf King's command, this already battered wolf pack once again pounced toward Levi and the others.

"Knight Fred, you go hold off the Wolf King. I'll deal with the other wolves."

As soon as he finished speaking, Knight Fred had already charged forward. The Wolf King stood up and staggered. Clearly, the wound on its hind leg had left this king barely able to stand.

If it had been an ordinary knight, that sword strike might not have been enough to wound the thick-skinned Wolf King so severely, but Knight Fred's Ripple Power had directly shattered the Wolf King's leg bone from the inside out.

This Revenge Battle went very smoothly.

Before long, at the cost of only four wounded soldiers, Levi had hunted down all the Mountain Sitting Wolves. This time, he had made ample preparations and brought quite a few Iron Arrows. As long as those soldiers created chances for him to attack, he could kill them all.

In this battle, the Three Brothers also displayed for the first time the terrifying strength they possessed as Northern Giant Bears. They were only two years old, yet they could already hunt Mountain Sitting Wolves.

And the battle on Knight Fred's side had also reached its end. The injured Wolf King was ultimately no match for Knight Fred.

On top of that, Levi kept ambushing the Wolf King and shooting it with arrows.

In the end, Knight Fred unleashed his strongest move, Ripple Cross Slash!

For a dazed instant, Levi even saw the air ripple under that slash.

Then the Wolf King's enormous head fell to the ground. Until the final moment before its death, the Wolf King's icy eyes remained fixed on Levi. That feeling made one's hair stand on end.

"Heh. What are you staring at?" Levi stepped on the Wolf King's head.

"With such a fine wolf pelt, selling it to those great nobles should be worth at least five Gold Coins."

Levi had his subordinates start skinning it. This was all money and could not be wasted.

"Excellent. These damned beasts killed several of our comrades. Now we've finally taken revenge."

"Tie all these bodies to the Sled and drag them down the mountain."

Levi ordered. These wolf pelts and wolf meat could recover a little of his losses.

At the same time, Little Fatty of the Three Brothers suddenly ran to Levi's side, rubbed his head against Levi, and growled softly.

Levi understood.

When Little Fatty had been exploring the Wolf King's Lair just now, he had discovered a cave. Inside was a strange human skeleton.
