Blood spattered all over him but he had used his right hand the hand he threw the dagger with to cover his eyes.
Luis knew from Sera's hellish spars and training that he couldn't lose focus. And not to his surprise the injured wolf was less than 2 meters away coming at him with ferocity. It lunged to claw and bite Luis's head off.
Luis blocked the left incoming claw with his dagger. He empowered his right fist with aura but he wasn't able to gather a lot of it. Luis punched its other claw intending to punch its claw back into its face and sending it back.
But with not enough aura the wolf relented, but because it still took the hit it missed Luis head and instead chewed a chunk of his shoulder's flesh off.
Luis jumped back instantly reeling in pain. But he couldn't relax the wolves were 1 leg each where coming at Luis. They would jump a tiny bit forward with their 3 legs go in the ground head first and then instantly, do it again. Becoming a terrifying sight because even without 1 leg they were coming at him with resolve.
Luis switched his dagger from his left hand where his shoulders flesh was bit off, to his right hand. He still had 30% of his aura reserves left which was more than enough.
He instantly dashed at the wolf he punched which seemed fully recovered ready to lung at him. Didn't attack it head on he, fainted a head on attack. Side stepping last minute to the left to dodge the wolf's lunch and slash it horizontally on its other side. Causing it to whine in pain.
Luis glanced at the 2 leg less wolves but to his surprise the Lynx was there bloody but it seemed like it had taken them by surprise being able to finish 2 injured wolves off. It was currently rushing to his aid.
"At least the Lynx helps me"
But there wasn't any worries the wolf now with slashes from both sides looked wobbly while it was standing on its fours, not being able to run to attack. Luis faked a run at it but stopped half way, twisted his body and threw the dagger full speed at its face.
Luis dropped to the ground after the 6 wolves were taken down, the Lynx had gotten its 2 wolves which meant that, it was safe now.
Sera appeared infront of Luis, he wasn't surprised by her instantly appearing he knew her speed and strength because of the spars he had with her. She had a smile on her face, grabbing 2 small vials from her pouch, she threw one at Luis and made the Lynx drink the other one
"Not bad Luis, see I told you, you could do it. Took down 4 wolves and had badly injured 2 even if the Lynx wasn't there you could have taken them down. Let's head back after we go to the camp with the wolf."
Luis replied in hesitance. "What but it hasn't been a month since I got the blessing what if more wolves attack the Lynx"
Sera picked him up with one hand placing Luis on her shoulder. "You don't have to worry about that, I'll leave you at the camp and then go kill any nearby wolves of the Lynx camp. After that I'll sedate the wolf with a tranquilliser that can keep it unconscious for 2 weeks."
Luis replied in a even more shocked voice "wait what, but what about the small cubs they won't have food to eat and the Lynx might still die from a stray wolf, and what about it we can't just let it die, it's not gonna have food when it's sedated, how is it gonna wake up and survive. Also what about"
Sera interrupted Luis her voice firm "we did not come here for you to get a pet or get attached to something, we came here for a blessing. You have the blessing now and I can make a safe way for the Lynx to not die for at least 2 weeks no one will find it. That's gonna be more then enough time for you to keep your blessing. I'll place food for the cubs and Lynx so won't starve and I'll place them in a really safe space, don't worry I'm not so evil. Well you see Luis, the main reason we are going back a bit earlier is to make sure you mom and dad don't kill both of us"
Luis replied hesitant "but can't we take back the Lynx with us"
Sera replied with a hint of annoyance "and what you want the Black talons to question why a small village has lightning Lynx in it"
Luis understood why Sera was saying that but he was still a bit sad, but he just closed his mouth letting her do what she wanted. Mainly because he couldn't do anything.
