Chapter 51 Purple Night Wolf

Lucy and Lith heard some cries. They were more of a whimper. Lith wasn’t able to tell what sort of cries they were and could only stealthily go towards the source.
Lucy knew full well what those whimpers were but she didn’t say anything. It was Lith’s adventure and she was only testing him by asking questions and was mostly on the side watching him do his thing. She enjoyed watching him fight and be cautious of some stupid trap which wouldn’t even hurt him. She would internally laugh at his silly sneaky walks to avoid traps.
Lith was very inexperienced and he could only try his best to apply whatever knowledge he knew into practice. He was slowly but surely having practical knowledge too. He knew what to do and what not to but while he was actually into doing it, he looked silly as he was inexperienced and his movements weren’t very flexible.
Lith after walking towards the source found that a bunch of wolfs were attacking a small baby wolf and that baby wolf was trying it’s best to defend. He didn’t know how the baby wolf wasn’t killed yet but he chose to look for a while and see what was happening.
Lucy stayed beside him and didn’t say anything.
Lith cast the dark element rank 1 spell ‘cover’. It made his body smell disappear and hid him to some extent. He was close to a wall and now looked as if he had blended into it.
Lucy didn’t do anything and stayed where she was. She had hid herself from the start and was only visible to Lith. If she had released even a bit of her King rank aura the whole Dungeon would’ve been in chaos and the creatures would be so scared that they might run out of the floors and into the world due to fear. The Dungeon was only D class and the strongest monster was only rank 6. The creatures would be scared senseless if they found out someone so strong.
Lith looked around and found a dead wolf. The small baby wolf was away from the dead wolf. The ones who were attacking the small baby wolf had traces of blood dripping from their mouth. Lith understood the situation. The wolfs probably killed the mother and were now attacking the son of it. He still couldn’t understand why the baby wolf survived till now. He was still looking at the direction of the wolf when he suddenly heard in his mind
‘H-help’
‘What? Am I hearing things now? ‘ Lith thought to himself.
He didn’t respond to it and kept looking at the wolf. Lucy hadn’t gotten such a transmission as she was hidden but she knew full well about what was happening around. She was going to give some advice to her little brother but she stopped herself.
Whatever he gains in this trip, would be due to his own effort and her helping him was just spoiling him stupidly and not giving him a chance to grow.Although she didn’t like it, but it can’t be helped.
Lith needed to learn from his mistakes and experience the ups and downs of life on his own. There was an opportunity in front of him right now, wether he grabbed it or not, it was his own choice. She, as a good big sister had already given him all possible theory needed in these thirteen years. They were all general theories about the world. The types of organisms, herbs, magical beats, history and geography were taught in very advance to him. He also had gotten to know many secrets which normal people didn’t know. It was a perk of being the son of a creature who lived for half a million years and roamed the world.
Lilith had given the education to Lucy and Lucy simply passed down the teachings of her mother to her little brother. Some parts where she wasn’t confident in, Lilith taught it to Lith and also cleared the doubts and some concepts of Lucy on the go.
Therefore, Lith had a lot of knowledge about these things. His math, science and literature weren’t too advanced. He needed to improve upon it. He was yet to learn advanced mathematics, science and different languages and cultures of the world.
Lith looked at the situation which was happening in front of him. He found the wolf somewhat similar to a creature his big sis taught him. He was trying to recall what it was. He kept thinking about it.
The baby wolf, after finding that his transmission didn’t work, looked in the direction of Lith.
Lith was shocked. This thing had really transmitted that message to him before! He instantly realised what sort of creature it was. He, not wanting to let go of this opportunity, instantly dashed in between the wolf pack.
“Fire wall” Lith said and casted a wall of fire around him. He was rushing towards the baby wolf to rescue it. Fire wall was a basic rank 1 fire spell.
The wolves finding an intruder in their territory immediately let go of the baby wolf and went in to attack the intruder.
“Short jump” Lith simply casted short jump and teleported near the baby wolf after finding the wolves coming towards him. He stopped the fire wall spell and took hold of the baby wolf and casted short jump again and teleported to the floor below the one he was in. He cast Short jump repeatedly until he was out of the Dungeon.
Lith wasn’t foolish enough to fight the wolves for no reason. His goal was to have the baby wolf and the options he had available to save it were either to fight the wolves and then rescue it or simply rescue the baby wolf and run away.
He wasn’t a battle maniac like his big sister and wisely chose the second option. He came out of the Dungeon without even considering about his big sister. He knew she was too strong and could keep up with his speed. What he thought was right. Lucy was just beside him when he teleported outside.
He was a Legendary rank’s son and had much more spiritual energy in him than the ones of the same rank and he could therefore fight multiple levels above his own. He being at rank 1 could defeat the dungeon creatures upto rank 4. They didn’t have any artifact to protect them or even much intelligence to have a strategy to attack. They simply worked on instincts. Thus, it was easy to defeat them.
He could probably defeat a rank 3 by being a rank 1 if he tried very hard and his very best. It would be challenging but he would win. Defeating a rank 4 wasn’t impossible but the possibility of winning was only around 10-20%. He wouldn’t stupidly challenge someone. He wasn’t a battle maniac and considered caution before taking action.
The baby wolf in his hand was a rank 1 beast, as of now. It looked like a small baby golden retriever but in dark purple colour. It almost looked black but it was purple.
After the baby wolf sent him a transmission, he didn’t think too much of it and thought it was his imagination. He was inexperienced, after all. He couldn’t suddenly think it was a cry for help from the baby wolf. The creatures in the dungeon were all below rank 6. A creature sending a mental transmission was nigh impossible in this place. Thus, he didn’t think of that possibility at first. Only after did the baby wolf look at him did he realise that it was really the magical beast which he was thinking of.
It was a Purple Night Wolf!
A Purple Night Wolf was a species of wolf with the a very strong bloodline amongst wolves. They were second only to Werewolves. These magical beasts were even better than the average Werewolves. They had the possibility to have strength of atleast a Half Emperor rank. They also were very rare in the world.
They were taken in as pets when someone found them or if it’s a Werewolf who found it, he would immediately kill it. They did not like the existence of this creature. It was jealousy and a little envy. These Werewolves who killed these purple night wolves were just the average people in their race. If it isn’t anyone average and someone strong, they would take the wolf and keep as a pet or slave for themselves.
Thus, these wolves are very rare and coming across one like this could only happen by sheer luck. These wolves had the ability to communicate very well with other’s. They could only do mental transmission but after they reach rank 6, they could talk normally with their mouth.
After reaching Saint rank they could transform themselves into a humanoid form. They wouldn’t be like Werewolves though. Werewolves were born with a wolf form and a human form. They looked just like humans if they aren’t in their wolf form. During birth they looked like a wolf but after having a little bit understanding and consciousness, they could transform into the human form they are naturally born with.
The purple night wolf had two wolf like ears on their head and they had a fluffy tail. That’s it. These were the characteristics that remained after they turn into a humanoid form.
Lith had won big time, this time! He got himself a good pet. Now, he only needed to ensure wether this little wolf would accept him as his master or not.
