Chapter 5 - New Novel: chapter 1

"huh"huh"huh"

In the forest near the outskirts of winter town, there's weird pale skin boy with golden eyes, black hair with bangs covering his eyes, and well built body, he has a sword in his left side of his body, an example for a handsome boy, but there is multiple blood strains in his body, the most serious injury is in his left leg, there is big wound even showing his bones, he is currently walking barefoot in this cold wither.

Every step the boy took left bloody foot print in the snow.

Pov Loki :

Survive, survive, I will definitely survive.

They shouldn't be able to find me,I made sure to destroy everything they could use to track me down.

I need to find a healer quickly or i will be done for.

My vision start to get blurry, i lost a lot of blood.

Damn i miscalculated the strength of the enemy or did i overstimulated myself, no my plan was perfect,i made sure to observe everyone habits and evaluate their strength and weakness.

no, the problem wasn't in the plan, but during the execution, if I controlled my emotions probably i wouldn't be in this situation.

"Hahahaha".

I laughed lightly because I remembered that the first lesson they taught us is to control our emotions, they said that if you could manipulate your target emotions then you already won half the battle, because it's the easiest way for your target to show his flaws.

But they obviously didn't make us lose our emotions because by then we will be nothing more than broken puppets that could betray them if they aren't carful enough.

but by leaving a trace of emotions in us they could exploit it to make us obey them, and by the passage of time you will develop emotions with people there.

you will consider that place your home, and think that the boss is your benefactor, you'll protect him, sacrifice yourself for him, and that's how you'll be one of his puppets, truly sinister fellow but I must admit that his method is effective, the scary thing about him is his intelligence and cunningness. that's why I insisted in starting the plan when he is not there even if it wasn't complete, because I wasn't able to find how his ability works and his IQ was scary enough.

Well i guess I can only increase my strength as much as possible and develop in low-key manners.

As Loki was making plans for his future, he suddenly stopped, because he heard howls

"Aww , aww , aww ...."

A series of howls sounds in the forest, followed by 3 injured wolves, it was obvious that they were escaping from the enemy who caused them this injuries, seriously the forest is so big but due Loki's luck that was always good (bad) he encounter this wolves.

of course in normal times he wouldn't pay this small fries any attention, but he's currently seriously injured and need immediate treatment, if he faced this wolves he's not sure if he'll be able to leave unscratch.

And of course he have to consider the one who injured the wolves.

Ever since Loki saw the wolves he's been thinking of way to win without further increasing his injuries, he simulated every fighting method and scenario he could use with his super computer like brain, after while he was able to find a way with the least injuries which made him chuckle.

" Hehehe ,I can't believe that I have to use my head to fight this wolves, i wonder what will those guys say if they see me right now".

After the wolves get close enough, Loki held the hilt of his sword with right hand and kicked the ground hard which made him rush to the wolf in the middle with speed difficult to capture by ordinary people, once he's 1 meter apart he pulled his sword and slice the wolf in two sections with lightning like speed.

The remaining 2 wolves were obviously stun, everything happened in second, they were running away after being injured but met a small Frey along the way, so they decide to eat him and recover their injuries, but who thought that the moment they got close, the person who they consider him as their food killed one them this fast.

After Loki killed the wolf he turned around facing the remaining 2 wolves, after few seconds of hesitation, the wolf in the left side launch himself in Loki's direction.

he flew near 3 meters and prepare to give Loki an attack with his right claw, but the moment he reached his peak , he found himself falling in Loki's direction who launched straight stab in the wolf's neck resulting in cutting his head off.

But he made a mistake, he first thought that if he killed the the two wolves then the third one will try to escape, don't look at him killing them like chicken but he's suffering from internal injuries and this fight further worsen them.

But he miscalculated the wolf's hunger or overstimulated his intelligence which caused Loki to fall in this situation.

The moment he stabbed the second wolf the third appeared in his left side and bitted his shoulder, which caused him to close his eyes and groans in pain, but he quickly recovered and reversed his sword and stabbed the wolf's stomach.

"Aww ,aww"

The wolf let out a miserable scream then he distanced himself from Loki, after a while he decided to run, it was clear to him that this prey is not easy to mess with.

Seeing him trying to run how could Loki let him go so easily, so despite his injuries and blurred vision, he raised his left hand with difficulty and then,

"Come here, you piece of shit".

Suddenly there was an attraction force that made the wolf fly in the direction of Loki who naturally respond to him with chop in the head.

This is Loki's ability gravity manipulation.

Through the manipulation of gravity, he can emulate telekinesis and flight, can attract and repulse objects, can create local gravity fields to immobilize and even crush enemies.

Of course he still has long way to go in developing his ability, just because you have powerful ability doesn't mean that you're going to be powerful in the future.

The abilities in this world represent the individual potential, but that doesn't mean that basic abilities are useless.

For example the ability of flame sounds tasteless compared to gravity but if the user developed his flames to have the same heat of the sun, then it won't be much worse.

So in the final analysis the user is the one who make the ability powerful and not the other way around.

After getting rid of the last wolf, Loki is completely out the strength which caused him to fall in his back, looking at the spectacular view of the stars in the sky.

"Beautiful" is the only word that he can say.

He slowly raised his right hand up in the air and made a holding gesture towards the stars,

"I will definitely reach it one day, i made promise to myself and to her, so I can't die now at least not just yet".

Blood pool start to form under Loki's body and he was slowly losing his vision but before he completely lose conscious, he heard people voices followed by rapid footsteps, but before he could see who came he was already in deep coma.

-----------------------

" Madame, please go back to the mansion, it's cold out here, I'm afraid you'll get sick"

Not far away from Loki's location there's an old man in butler uniform chasing after woman in white dress with helpless expression.

"Ohh, come on Roland, the wolves gonna escape if you keep delaying time". Said the woman in white dress.

" But you obviously could killed them all in one blow but you insisted to hunt them down one by one".

Roland the old butler kept complaining about the behavior of his Madame, but he speed didn't slow down

"Hehehe"

A light chuckle is all he got in response to his complain.

" Come on Roland, they shouldn't be far away"

After walking for a while ( hundreds of meters ) they found a scene that left them stun for moment.

There was blood all over the place, there is a wolf corpse split in half and two other wolves without head, and the cause of this is obviously the boy who's lying in the middle of the blood.

The woman quickly noticed that the boy has serious injuries, so she rushed towards him in attempt to treat him, but she was quickly held up by Roland.

" What are you ...."

" Madame you can't just rush out just like that,a person who can kill this wolves is by no means ordinary, and besides he is still a child which means he's dangerous and..."

Roland couldn't finish his words because the woman Broke free and rushed towards the boy without care.

"I know that you're trying to protect me, but who do you think is the cause of his injuries."

Ronald was bit suprise by the woman's reply but he quickly understood, if the woman didn't decide to play and killed the wolves directly, then this unknown boy wouldn't have been injured, so she's feeling little guilty that's why she decided to help him.

But what they didn't know is that Loki was already seriously injured before meeting the wolves.

"Roland, he's in coma, can you help me carry him back to the house".

"Ahh, sure".

After thinking about for moment he decided to help the boy but he has to keep an eye on him just in case.
