Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Acquaintance?

The Amarok refers to a mythical creature from a mythology. In mythology, the Amarok is a gigantic wolf that is said to hunt alone and possesses incredible strength and endurance. It is often described as being larger than a normal wolf and having powerful jaws and sharp teeth.

According to legend, the Amarok hunts down and devours it's prey, specifically targeting individuals who are isolated or separated from their group. I only heard of them in I never thought of encountering one on my own. I think I'm lucky, since I'll surely be dead if it's in a pack.

The moment the amarok attack me, I could barely dodge, but lil' blob fell off from my back. I tried to attack it with my {Fire magic} and as expected, it didn't do much damage. My attack only made it more hostile, and that's the last thing I wanted.

The amarok attack me again, it was way more faster than the last attack thus, I couldn't react in time, using it's claw's to pin me down against my back, then it bit the back of my neck. I wasn't able to escape from it's grip since it was far more stronger than me. And for some reason, my lime-green blood was now crimson red or more similar to a human blood.

I shook my body out of pain, while trying to get the amarok off me. And I used my tail to attack it, but my tail was pinned down by it's lower right leg.

I also tried to cover my body with fire using {Fire Magic}, however, it was easier said than done.

Eventually, after a minute and a half I finally able to do it.

The amarok was startled by the my burning body, and stopped bitting my nape. But unfortunately for me, it had {Fire Resistance} so my burning body only shock the amarok and started to bit my nape again. It was deeper and it hurts more this time.

Lil' blob was trying to help me by hitting the amarok using her body, obviously her attempts didn't do anything, the amarok just ignore her and kept it's attention on me. Five minutes after, the fire on my body died down, I was confused at first, so I check my condition.

===================================

Name:(nameless)

Race: Geke

Title:(none)

HP:16/98 MP:14/103 AP:100

Racial skill: {Fast Regeneration lvl5}

Skills: {Identification lvl4} {Poison lvl5}{Speedboost lvl4} {Fire magic lvl5}

Resistance: {Fire resist.lvl6} {Acid resist.lvl3} {Poison resist. lvl4}

===================================

Crap. I thought that I would be safe since I had my racial skill {Fast Regeneration}, however, this bastard kept on bitting my nape deeper and deeper, thus making me weaker and making my {Fast Regeneration} useless in every seconds. I also couldn't use {Fire Magic} anymore because I don't have enough MP.

So this is how I would die, huh.

There's no way I had a chance to win against something more stronger than me.

I thought that upon realizing my hopelessness, while starting to slowly lose the strength to shake my body.

I was about to give up and let it kill my weak self. Unlike when I faced a Hickory Horned Devil, I knew that I can kill since, it's almost equally strong as me. And this, I knew that I didn't stand a chance against the amarok who's three times stronger than me. I only had this new body recently, so I can't full move accurately. However, suddenly the amarok's head was cut off it's neck. I looked at where the amarok was, there I saw a man with a black hair and a glowing crimson red eyes, wearing a jacket like clothe and a jeans, the only thing I could off that moment I saw him was 'His deadly Handsome!'. The man then, look at me, came closer, bend down on one of his knee and put his right palm lightly on my nape where the amarok bit me.

A green light came out of his palm, then I realized that he was healing my wound and bit mark and I was slowly feeling better. After a while, I was now completely healed, and I could see lil' blob bouncing up and down in happiness. "Sorry, I barely made it in time." He said as he began to pats my head, for an unknown reason I feel happy when he started to caressing my head. Then, he spoke again.

"You should rest for for the time being, I assure that you will feel better after, and I have a gift for you that you would surely like to have." upon hearing those words, I felt safe or more like my intuitions are telling me to believe his him and everything will be fine. So I closed my eyes and sleep while the man hand's still on my head, caressing me.

Back in the time before Joyce(Former) met the wolf monster, amarok.

Three figures were standing somewhere inside the Disaster Forest.Two young man and a young woman, both of the young man had a black hairs, one had a red eyes and the other one was had Blue eyes, the young woman had a black hair and black eyes. They were non other the Shakti, Shiva, and Morax, they were currently talking with each others.

Morax: "*sigh* you still haven't stated your purpose yet."

Shiva: "like I said, we're here to visit you."

Shakti: "I think, we should change to a better place to talk."

Morax: "sure."

Morax agreed to Shakti's suggestion while Shiva just nod, Shiva then snapped her finger thus, teleporting them to a very beautiful and peaceful place, in that place there is the garden where Shiva had drank her tea with Shakti. They went to the shade at the middle of the garden, there were only two chairs so, shakti made one more chair out of nowhere, they then, sat down.

Morax: "This place never changed, it's still looking the same as the last time I was here."

Shakti: "Well, this place is called heaven because it's already perfect as it is."

Shiva: "I agree but, I was thinking of adding more decorations or remaking the whole place to add more landscape."

She summoned three teas on the table, infront of her, Shakti and Morax.

Morax: "I guess even you can also get bored of seeing the same view for millennia, huh?"

Shakti: "Welp, if that's what you want, then I'll help you, honey."

Shiva: *smiles*"Thank you, dear."

Morax: "Can you please, stop flirting infront of me."

Morax said as he drinks his tea while showing no interest on the lovebirds infront of him.

They then, chatted with each other for a few minutes about random stuff.

Shakti: "Now, let's get to the point. Were you expecting that she will acquire a human form one day? If so, then she can."

Morax: *bright smile*"Really? Then that's just perfect."

Shiva: "Hehehehe."

Morax: "What are you laughing at?"

Shiva: "Sorry, I didn't mean to laugh at you."*smug*"But, your just like a puppy who's excited to see his owner again."

Morax: "cut it out."

"*smug* Your cute when your shy, you know." Shiva teased Morax.

Morax: *annoyed* "I said cut it out."

Shakti: "Stop teasing him, honey."

Shiva: *pout* "Fine, fine, I'll stop."

Morax then, looked at Shakti and ask. "So, how can she aquire it?"

Shakti: "There's three ways, actually."

Morax: "And what are those?"

Shakti: "First, if me and Shiva interfere, obviously.

Secondly, lizards are the actual first stage of dragons. So, if she evolve into a dragon, she'll have a chance to gain human form or learn it after evolving to a dragon. She need to evolve from Gecko Lizard to Geke to Drake and finally to a dragon.

And lastly, if you interfere by giving her enough mana to force her evolution to commence."

Shiva: *flinched*

"Is there something wrong?" Morax asked shiva upon noticing her flinched.

Shiva: "Well,... How do I say this... She's kinda dying right now, i guess?"

Morax: "What?!!"

Shakti: "You should go now." Shakti smiles at Morax.

Morax just hurriedly vanished without a trace.

Shakti: "*sigh* That kid didn't changed, at all."

Shiva: "*smile* Well, we can't actually blame him since she already put him in her cage."

Shakti smirks and said. "Yeah, like I did to you. Now that he's gone, let go inside and ~I'll go inside~." He said last part in a playful tone while licking his lips.

Upon hearing those words, Shiva's face turned red and she thought. 'Crap, we're alone again. I'm not complain cause I actually like it, but his always messing with me.'

****

Somewhere inside the Disaster Forest, Morax suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Infront of him are a wolf who's attack a big white scaled lizard, a slime who's repeatedly attacking or more like hitting the wolf by bouncing, and a white scaled lizard who's suffering by the wolf's bite. The moment Morax saw this, he immediately dash towards the wolf and then, chopped it's head off using only his hand. He walked closer to the lizard, he crouch, put his palm lightly on the injured part of the Lizard's nape and healed it.

"Sorry, I barely made it in time." He said while Patting the lizard's head. (the slime bounced up and down in happiness to see the white scaled lizard being healed)

"You should rest for for the time being, I assure that you will feel better after, and I have a gift for you that you would surely like to have." He added. The lizard felt reassured upon hearing those words coming out of him, thus making the lizard sleep and rest. Morax just kept on patting the lizard as it slept, the slime ball also bounce towards them and place itself beside the white scaled lizard.

In Earth, in a starry night sky. A man with a blonde hair, blue eyes, and wearing a white coat, he was walking on the street in a cold night. By the coat he is wearing, everyone that sees him will surely know that he's a doctor. The man's name was John Cadiot, he is the head doctor of a certain hospital and a colleague of Joyce. He stop in a convenience store to buy a coffee in a coffee machine. He was about to leave the store when suddenly a glowing circle with weird design that he never seen before appeared under his feet, he accidentally drop his newly bought coffee, started.

The glowing circle began to brighten even more and he eventually closed his eyes by the bright light. After a while, he opened his eyes to check if the light were still there, the light he saw vanished but he was surprised to see that he is now in a different place, he was captivated by the old but beautiful designs around him. He was brought back to reality when a voice suddenly rings in the room he was now in.

"Greetings Hero! We welcome you to our world!"

He was in the center the room, surrounded by people who's wearing an old but fancy clothes. And there's seems to be a throne in the room, on throne there us a man sitting on the middle, a woman on his right side, two kids on his left side. They are the King, The Queen, the Prince and the Princess.
