Sol had sparring matches with Moon for an entire week, they were preparing to beat Moon's mother with the help of Nerodia's power.
Sol prepared to fight Moon's mother by having himself slowed by Nerodias magical eye, she was able to control the magical eye power after her body turned into a human.
So, Sol had simulated the fight against the female alpha with himself being weakened, that way his fight against Moon will be similar to what he will face against the mother wolf.
While Moon indeed becomes faster in their training, her raw strength did not increase, so Sol had expected that the future fight would be harder than his sparing.
Under the restriction in speed, Sol could dodge almost every attack from Moon with his exceptional reflex, at most he could dodge for five minutes before getting hit once by the end of their training.
He was not only depending on his reflex but also on prediction, he would need to move in advance to dodge someone faster.
five minutes was a big improvement, at first, he would be hit every few seconds, although it was also attributed to him getting familiar with Moon's fighting style, she had told him that she had learned her ever move from her mother, so at least when he fights the mother wolf he would not be starting from zero.
Other than sparring, they also experiment with the wolf power, whether they could nullify it or counter it.
Moon had tried to give a small prick on Sol's arm with her power, they had waited for twenty-four-hour before the wound starts to heal, he concludes that the wolf power had a long duration, if the moderate wound were inflicted by the wolf then he would die before twenty-four-hour was up from bloodloss.
Sol also tried to distance himself from Moon after he got pricked by her and it turns out that he needs to be at least three kilometers away for her power to vanish from his body.
In a fight, he could not put that much distance while still fighting unless Nerodia butt in, but now they know that if his life was in danger, Nerodia needs to bring him at least three kilometers away from the mountain.
After a few experiments, they could counter the bleeding power by drinking Moon's blood, they could make two vials of this cure in a day but it will go bad in two days so at most he would have six vials in a fight.
Sol needs to beat the wolf mother with only getting hit six-time at most, if it was a game then that means he has seven life against an enemy who could kill him in one hit.
Everyone wanted to go with Sol into the mountain, but he did not want to bring Nerva into the mountain so he told Miya to stay back with her.
As for his job at the school, he did not need to take a paid leave because the school still had not started, a lot of his students went missing on the day of the zombie attack, he had expected the worse.
Sol depart with Moon and Nerodia in a snow car, its was the same snow car he had ret before but this time the snow car had become a bit small because of Nerodia's long tail, Sol had told her to turn into a snake and make herself small but she did not want to.
Their travel was not event full, they got to the foot of the mountain in a few hours and continue their journey by foot.
This time Sol did not get lost because he has Nerodia and Moon with him, both creatures were native of this mountain.
Similar to last time, Sol did not meet any creature in the mountain, it was as if there was nobody on the mountain.
Actually, there was some creature but their survival instinct had made them run from the three Heir, animals have an acute sense for danger and nothing more dangerous than the three heirs other than the king of the mountain.
Moon had to lead them to her old lair, her old pack lived in a cave at the mountain peak, they had moved there after the upheaval.
When they reach the mountain peak, Sol could see dozens of houses made from wood and rock, it looked like a small village, the last time he remembers there was no village there.
When they get near, a group of wolfman come out of the houses, it was a village mad by the wolf, at the center of the village was a rock cave, from the cave came a giant she-wolf, it stands more than two meters.
It was Moon's mother, beside her was another wolf as big as her but this one was a male wolf, it might be the new male alpha.
Moon howled and barked at them, they were talking in wolf language, Sol could not understand them but he could guess it must be dramatic.
Moon had asked her mother why did she exile her, what did she do wrong, the female alpha just shrugs it off as natural, she did not want Moon to take her place in the future.
The female alpha did not expect Moon to come back in revenge as revenge was a human trait, not a wolves trait, she eyed Moon and thought to herself, "it seems, sending her with the human was a mistake."
The mother wolf could feel danger coming from the human girl with the lower half of a snake, even if she was confident in her survival against the girl but if she needs to fight three heirs then she did not feel as confident.
"this human is an enigma, it could beat an alpha wolf alone and now he somehow becomes an Heir" She eyed the man in curiosity.
