Chapter 28 - Inevitable

"Huh? Faust ?" Gus is in disbelief. Faust who is at least 20 feet away from him and the wolves, suddenly appeared in the front right before him? And landed such a hard blow right in its face? Kids his age won't be able to jump 10 feet up as if they were floating in the air how is Faust who is 20 feet away appeared in the face of wolf and knocked it mercilessly!  Gus becomes puzzled by the events.

*Moments ago*

Seeing Gus is surrounded by the wolves and the wolves are taking turns to attack him. They're only aiming for his hamstring, tendons and joints. Not the muscle or head like this is just a game for them and they are just having fun teasing and hurting their prey.

"Grandpa Raka is planning to attack you! He is right behind the wolf, he might do something. Keep your eyes on him, grandpa!!" Faust is shouting and yelling at the top of his lungs , yet his voice doesn't seem to be reaching to Gus's ear due to the commotion.

*"Dammit, just one hit, I wish I can just land one hit on these wolves, just one hit uwahhh"* Faust thinks to himself angrily and he keep staring at a wolf which is rather enjoying tearing Gus's flesh to pieces with it's claws. The wolf have already made contact with Gus and tore his calve muscle once and since then it's lust for blood has increased, it is behaving cocky as if no one could match it's speed. It has been toying with Gus taking its turn pleasurably.

Faust keeps repeating that he just wanna punch once in the face of that wolf. His breathing becomes heavy as something starts raging inside while gritting his teeth hard, his vision is getting distorted like a static in electronic devices, as if multiple dimensions are crossing over in his eyes. Suddenly he sees himself landing a blow on the face of the wolf and the wolf is gushing the blood out. He is imagining his replica appears in front of that nasty wolf and that the wolf is wounded by his replic's punch. He is not thinking of anything else. The only thing he can think of is beating the sh*t of that wolf. Faust is visualizing without any other thoughts as he keeps concentrating.

*Poofff!!~* 

All of a sudden, Faust is in the air and landed a powerful blow onto the wolf and the wolf gushed out drops of blood as it's jaw gets dislocated and the wolf loses his balance and fell down to the ground.

*present*

*"Huh?! Is that teleportation? I didn't see him move at all. He just appeared there as if he is from another world. Right in front of that cocky wolf and killed him in an instant blow. Is it because of how his eyes change whenever he is lost in emotions? But his eyes are somehow normal now they are not red."* Gus is dumbstruck of the event that just took place. He never got to witness Faust the way he did today. 

Faust falls down from the air, he couldn't do anything about his landing and twists his ankle, falling from that height, Gus wanted to catch Faust but his leg doesn't support him at all to move.

*GRRRRR!!~~* 

The cocky wolf gets up back as if nothing happened. It shake off the dust off it's fur and growls viciously immediately sending chills to Faust.

*"Huh? I'm- I'm- how am I here? Did I really punch it? I'm here in the middle but what now? All the wolves are around me, I'm dead meat now. Why is the wolf not dead yet? And his jaw is looking completely fine too* Faust thinks to himself while trembling in fear sensing the huge wolves hovering over him.

*Deep breathes~~~*

*"It doesn't makes sense, Faust clearly landed a blow on the wolf and it even gushed out blood and it's jaws is dislocated, but why is it back up and is looking as good as new? What is wrong?"* Gus keeps thinking and looks at Faust, his eyes gets wider - *"his fiss-st... Faust's fist is unscratched, he never trained with a sand bag to throw punches, if he landed a punch that dislocated the jaws of this huge wolf, his fist should be hurt because of the sudden power surge, at least it should be grazed, but even his fist looks like it never landed a blow, it's irritating! I need to do something and then figure out what is up with faust, but before that....."* Gus becomes agitated with  himself as he watches the wolves in front of him and Faust.

"Sword Arts - Rapier Thrust" - Gus takes a half squat stance, his weight is well balanced in both of his feet and it looks as if he is pushing the earth with his feet. 

*Swisshh!!~~* Gus springs out fast and thrusts the wooden sword into the ribs of the cocky wolf. The sword thrust is insanely powerful as the penetrating waves could be seen at the tip of the wooden sword while Gus is pushing backwards the wolf with his sword in it's chest. The big wolf all of a sudden got slammed against the wall of a cave and even the huge cave stone gets destroyed along with every bone inside the wolf is shattered to pieces, the wolf is done for good this time, there is no getting back up from it.

"Live on Faust, don't feel guilty, You fought great." - Gus immediately withdraws back with the same speed from the wolf stepping to where Faust is lying, grabbing him and rushes to the other side of the cliff and throws Faust down the slide of cliff pushing into the thick bushy forest while saying the words and smiling happily.

"No Grandpa!" Faust yells loudly *"I'm weak! I'm so weak! In the end I was still protected by grandpa in the end, it hurts being so weak!* Faust's heart was getting crushed with how weak he was, he calls himself a worthless being insistently . His eyes are fixed on the last smile of his grandpa as he slides down the cliff toward the bush faster.
