Nobody’s breathing had become rough again. The wolves kept circling him through the ruined city streets. "Your Four-legged doggies...you bitc*es really waiting to make me your lunch.."

Sharp claws of the wolves were scraping against broken concrete. And worst of all they never stopped adapting.

Nobody ducked under another lunging attack.

FWOOOSH!

The wolf passed inches above his head.

He rolled across the ground and immediately got back up. "...Okay this is getting ridiculous!"

Another wolf rushed from the side.

Nobody barely sidestepped it before a second one immediately followed from behind. "WHAT IS THIS COMBO ATTACKING?!"

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[Warning] ( º﹃º )

User stamina decreasing rapidly

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

"Nah I noticed!" Nobody jumped backward onto a broken slab of concrete. His chest rose heavily.

The wolves slowly spread around him again.

Nobody pointed angrily at the sky. "REN! Again no answer!!"

A wolf growled deeply.

Grrrrrrrr...

Nobody grabbed a broken metal rod again. "...You know what? You guys are really getting on my nerves."

The wolves suddenly rushed again.

BOOM!

One from the front. Two from the sides.

Nobody twisted away from the first attack but the second wolf clipped his shoulder with its claws.

FWIP!

"GAH!"

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

"What’s with that reaction, fool!" Nobody stumbled backward. "...OW!" A third wolf lunged instantly. He barely blocked with the rod.

KRAK!

The impact almost knocked him down completely. "...YOU GUYS DON’T GET TIRED?!"

The wolves continued advancing.

Step.

Step.

Step.

Nobody backed away desperately. Then finally, he snapped. "RENNNN!" His voice echoed across the ruined city. "At least HELP A LITTLE!" Nobody pointed upward dramatically while running again. "You can’t just throw me into furry death simulator and disappear!"

"Still no response!!"

A wolf nearly bit his leg.

Nobody jumped onto a broken car roof. "YOU OVERSIZED RABBIT MENTOR! ...DO SOMETHING!"

Then finally a voice echoed lazily through the air. "...Stop yelling so much."

Nobody froze mid-run. "...REN?!"

The wolves still circled below him carefully.

Ren’s voice came again. "I could hear you from three sectors away."

Nobody pointed around furiously. "THEN HELP!"

"No."

"...WHAT DO YOU MEAN NO?!"

"You’re training."

"I’m dying!"

"Close enough."

Nobody almost lost emotional stability. "YOU ARE THE WORST COACH EVER!"

A wolf jumped onto the car roof suddenly.

Nobody kicked it away instinctively.

THUD!

"GAH....GET OFF!"

Ren sighed somewhere unseen. "Well...You’re still alive, right? That means the difficulty is acceptable."

Nobody looked offended. "Acceptable for WHO?!"

The wolves began circling tighter again. Their eyes glowed brighter in the foggy ruins.

Nobody exhaled heavily."...At least allow the system to use an item."

Then Ren answered lazily. "...Hm....Okay."

Nobody blinked. "...Wait really?"

"Just one."

The system immediately reacted.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[Permission Granted]

Limited Item Usage Available

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Nobody’s eyes widened. "...OH THANK GOD."

A small blue portal opened beside him instantly.

SHHHHK.

Nobody reached inside dramatically. "...Come to papa." Then...he pulled something out. It was his Twin blade crowbars. The edges gleamed sharply like metallic fangs.

Nobody stared at them with shining eyes. "...OOOOOH."

The system displayed information instantly.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Enhanced cutting capability

Increased swing momentum

Minor attack boost

Hidden Skill: Auto Swings

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Nobody grinned widely. "...Now we’re talking." Below him the wolves crouched lower. Sensing danger Nobody jumped down from the car roof landing directly in front of them.

THUD.

He rolled the crowbars in his hands dramatically. "...Alright doggies." "Round three."

One wolf attacked instantly.

BOOM!

Nobody stepped sideways and swung.

SHING!

The blade crowbar cut across the wolf’s shoulder. Dark particles burst outward. The wolf crashed into rubble.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[Critical Hit]

Enemy balance disrupted

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Nobody’s eyes widened. "...THAT FELT SO SATISFYING."

Two wolves attacked together immediately.

Nobody spun one crowbar defensively while swinging the second forward.

CLANG!

THUD!

One wolf got pushed away. The other got slashed across the chest. But the wolves adapted instantly. They stopped direct lunges. Now they attacked in chains.

One forcing movement. Another targeting openings.

Nobody blocked another claw strike. "...Okay still terrifying!"

A wolf rushed from behind.

Nobody twisted his body sharply. The blade crowbar barely intercepted the jaws.

KRRRK!

The force pushed him backward several feet.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[Combat Analysis]

Reaction speed improving

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Nobody breathed heavily.

"...In..."

"...Out..."

The wolves circled again. The weapons changed their hunting pattern. One wolf suddenly darted low toward his legs.

Nobody jumped over it, then slammed both crowbars downward.

BOOM!

Concrete shattered.

The wolf barely escaped.

"You...FAST LITTLE....!"

Another wolf interrupted him immediately.

SWIPE!

Nobody leaned backward. Claws passed inches from his face. A strand of hair floated downward slowly. Nobody said, "...Okay that was personal."

He counterattacked instantly with rapid swings.

SHING! SHING! SHING!

The wolves retreated slightly for the first time. Not for fear but for recalculation.

Nobody noticed immediately. "...Wait...They’re learning the crowbars too."

One wolf suddenly baited his swing....then another attacked from his blind spot.

Nobody barely blocked in time.

CLANG!

The impact shook his arms violently.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[Warning] ⚠︎ 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Arm fatigue increasing

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

"...Yeah...I can feel that."

The wolves slowly surrounded him once more.

Broken city ruins around them. Fog moving through shattered streets.

Nobody tightened his grip on the blade crowbars. "...This stage really doesn’t believe in mercy..huh."

The wolves lowered their bodies simultaneously.

And Nobody stood in the center breathing heavily ready for the next wave. Nobody exhaled sharply. "...Alright....Whoever designed this stage definitely had some anger going in his mind while making it."

The wolves crouched lower. They were no longer moving with the same rhythm as before.

Nobody narrowed his eyes. "...Why did it suddenly become quiet?"

The system window flickered violently.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[WARNING] ⚠︎

Enemy Skill Activation Detected

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Nobody blinked. "...Skill?"

The wolves moved.

Or rather...they disappeared.

SHHHHH

Their black bodies melted directly into the shadows beneath the ruined buildings.

Nobody froze. "...Excuse me?"

One second they were there.

The next..gone.

Only darkness remained around the streets.

The system flashed again aggressively.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[ALERT]

Shadow Blend Skill Activated

Effect:

Enemies may travel between nearby shadows at high speed.

Warning:

Attack prediction difficulty increased drastically.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Nobody stared at the screen in disbelief. "...THEY CAN TELEPORT NOW?!"

FWOOOSH!

A wolf burst from the shadow beside him instantly.

Nobody barely blocked with one crowbar.

CLANG!

The impact pushed him backward violently. Before he could recover another wolf exploded from a different shadow behind him. "...WHAT THE...."

SLASH!

Claws tore across his back.

"GAH!"

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

[WARNING] ⚠︎

[Damage Taken]

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Nobody stumbled forward painfully. "...Are you kidding my as* why the hell they are using such skills despite being mosters." The shadows around him moved unnaturally now.

Another wolf emerged. Then vanished again instantly.

Nobody spun around desperately."...Come on...damn it!"

A shadow near his feet twitched. His instincts screamed. He jumped immediately.

BOOM!

A wolf burst upward from below exactly where he had stood.

"...NOPE!" Nobody rolled across broken concrete.

The wolves attacked again. One emerging from the wall shadows. Another from beneath ruined cars. Another from rooftop darkness.

Nobody blocked desperately with the twin crowbars.

CLANG! SHING! THUD!

The fight continues.
