As Ronald reached the site, what he first saw was a very big white tiger with white bird wings. It was about 5 meters in height with white fur and purple markings, and it was currently fighting three black forest wolves. But these three wolves, are not the same as the normal black forest wolf, as it was bigger than the normal black forest wolves and also looks stronger and sturdier.
Upon seeing the four beasts fighting with each other, Ronald immediately hid on a big rock far away from where they are battling.
Peeking over the rock, Ronald saw the deadly war that was happening, and he then tried to use his

As Ronald saw the information about the four beasts, he was shocked. Looking at the level alone, Ronald knew that he can't deal even just one of the wolves and has a very high chance of dying in one hit. Much more seeing the health and mana points of the three wolves, he will absolutely lose his will to fight when he confronts them.
And what is scarier is the big white tiger with wings. His skill can't even see any information about it.
"Uhmm... Luna, why are there some question marks in the information that I see?" Ronald asked as he unconsciously lowered his head much lower than before as he continued to watch the ongoing battle.
Upon hearing Ronald's question and seeing the battle that is happening through Ronald's eyes, Luna answered, "If you want to appraise the beast of the same level, then it would give you all the information that is available for you. But as the level gets higher and higher, the amount of information you will obtain will become smaller and smaller. As of the current level of your skill, a level higher than you would only give you the information about the name, level, Hp and Mp; two levels higher than you would only give you the information about its name and level; three levels higher than you would only give you the name of the beast; As for the beasts that are four levels higher and above, everything you get would just be question mark."
"So, base on what you said, then this white tiger has a minimum level of 5," Ronald said as he was shocked by the information he got.
A few minutes later, a thought passed through Ronald's mind, therefore he asked Luna, "Luna, if the tiger beast is a level 5 beast at minimum, then why do the wolves have the courage to fight it? Base on my knowledge, beasts have strongly followed their hierarchy."
"Base on my observation of the battle, the white tiger was already severely wounded when it fought the three wolves, as the severe wounds on its body can't be done by the wolves. Observe where the wolves are attacking," Luna said, as he instructed Ronald what to do.
Hearing what Luna said, Ronald observed the battle carefully and found out that the wolves are only attacking the severe wounds of the white tiger.
"Here, we can assume that the three wolves can't even pierce the skin of the tiger and was just attacking its wounds to consume its life. Also, I sense that the tiger is getting weaker and weaker and is very close to death," Luna continued.
"Could the tiger just fly away? Although there are wounds on its wings, I clearly saw that it can still use it to fly, and if it can't fly, it could still run away, right?" Ronald asked in a confused tone after he made some calculations in his mind.
"That is also what confuses me...Hmm..," Luna said as she tried thinking of a possible answer.
"Hey, Luna, have you noticed that the tiger never once leave that place? It was as if it was defending something," Ronald said as he noticed something strange about the tiger's action.
"Oh! I only noticed it now that you have said it. Try getting a view of what the tiger is protecting, maybe it is a treasure or a divine medicine, 'cause if it really is, then it would be a great help to you," Luna said in an excited tone.
Following Luna's suggestion, Ronald slowly walked back and searched a way around the battle where he can see what the tiger was protecting.
It was several minutes later that Ronald came at a nearby small cliff, which is located several meters away from the back of the tiger.
Peeking again from the cliff, Ronald finally saw what the tiger was guarding.
It wasn't a peerless treasure or a divine medicine, but it was something that is white in color, due to the distance and the size of that thing, he can't clearly see what that thing is, but he knew that it wasn't an object or a plant. He didn't really know how or why can he confirm that it wasn't any object or plant, he has just a feeling that it wasn't either of the two options.
The battle worsened as time passed by. Many trees were uprooted and destroyed, and the ground was now full of small and large pits.
It was about 20 minutes later that Luna suddenly shouted excitedly in Ronald's mind.
"Ronald! Ronald! I finally knew what the tiger is protecting."
Hearing what Luna said, Ronald was also curious and waited for Luna to continue.
"That white thing is a cub, the white tiger's cub. It was protecting it from the wolves. It even took some attacks coming to the direction of the cub. And base on how the cub acts, it was just born newly. This is also one of the reasons why that white tiger is so weak now," Luna said in a proud and excited tone, then she muttered sadly and sighed, "Sadly, it was born at a wrong time in a wrong place. If its mother died and those wolves live, then it would be a bad ending for the cub."
Ronald just watched silently at the battle that is nearly ending as he listened to what Luna said.
A few minutes later, Ronald concluded that the tiger lost, but at this time, something unexpected happened.
As the three wolves saw that the tiger is finally at the end of its life, the three wolves started to relax, but it was at this moment of relaxation that the tiger suddenly gathered all its energy and started forming three huge blades of wind.
Ronald's heart is loudly beating upon seeing the huge blades formed in just a matter of less than a second. It was as if his heart was jumping out of his chest.
Without any chance to react, the three huge wind blades flew at a very frightening speed to the three wolves, not even a shadow was seen as the wind blades moved.
The huge wind blades did not stop after hitting the wolves but continued and hit many trees along its path, making a very deep slash mark on the ground.
The wolves, trees, and everything on its way was cut cleanly by the wind blades.
After releasing its final attack, the tiger fell weakly on the ground, lifting the dust beneath it.
Seeing the tiger fell down, Ronald waited for several minutes before going down the cliff and went near where the tiger fell down.
As Ronald came closer and closer to the dead tiger, Ronald finally felt the difference in strength between him and the tiger, just by feeling the pressure released by the tiger.
After watching the dead tiger, Ronald went to where he saw the tiger cub, but as he went closer to the cub, the dead tiger suddenly opened its closed eyes and looked at Ronald with deep wary and anger.
Ronald was very shocked by the "dead" tiger's waking up, and
his body unconsciously stopped moving and stayed rooted on the ground, standing like a statue.
The tiger doesn't have any energy left to move even its toes, so it can only stare at Ronald.
But as Ronald was stared by the lying tiger, he suddenly felt another emotion aside from wary and anger. It was the feeling of helplessness and fear.
Clearly feeling the hidden feelings of the tiger, Ronald thought of something.
After some thoughts, Ronald started walking to the place where the cub is.
Seeing Ronald walking, the tiger was feeling more helpless and fearful and was just snarling and staring intently at Ronald, driving its released pressure to the limit, as it can't do anything anymore.
Ronald bore the pressure the tiger applied on his body and continued walking to where the cub was.
Finally, reaching his destination, Ronald slowly, and gently picked up the cub. At first, the tiger was feeling so hopeless when he saw Ronald picking her cub, but then he saw Ronald slowly coming to her.
Guessing Ronald's idea, the tiger stopped releasing its pressure and let Ronald come closer to her.
When Ronald came closer to the tiger, he looked deeply on its eyes, and slowly put the cub near its head. If the tiger can move now, Ronald would be bitten directly.
As if feeling the weakening breath of its mother, the cub did its best to open its eyes. The tiger looked at its cub lovingly as the cub tried to open its eyes.
