"Well, it's to be expected, and it's better than nothing I guess". Muku said looking at the store room filled with only canned foods. The foods ranged from canned beans, fish, beaf and the beverages were all the same....coke.
"Let's move some into the office incase an emergency occurs and we can't come get more.". Layla said, thinking of a possible, unwelcomed but likely future.
"Yeah, and we should barricade the stairs, who knows if another dog or two will show up, our teacher might end up sacrificing one of us if that were to happen". Jade added, though the later part of her statement was obviously targeted at the usual suspect, who now was giving her the stink eye(Great teacher Muku of course).
"Sigh, you just can't help yourself can you?". Emily said while looking at Jade, who looked away in embarrassment without saying anything.
"Okay, Chloe and Emily will move some food while Jade and Layla will help me barricade the stairs". Muku gave our orders and everyone got to work.
It took quite some work to move the headmaster's big*ss and super heavy desk to the stairs. Muku even did most of the work after the little girls started complaining. Jade saying girls weren't meant to do such heavy lifting while Layla said she was more of a thinker than a doer. Truth if the matter is, they were both lazy and just didn't want to do it.
.....
"Phew, finally done, but this again brings us back to a past problem. We can't stay hidden, we need to get stronger". After finishing up. Muku thought of a reoccurring problem, the situation reminded him about the saying, "you can't have your cake and eat it".
"That's simple...well risk it, but still, it's our only option. We just have to make a bit of noise up here to bait in a few of them. Of course the danger is that, we might bait in too many and get killed..". Layla thought out loud.
"Hmm....works for me, lets do it... the sun will set in a few hours so lets be quick about it. I have to at least kill one today" Jade grabbed her axe thinking about the excitement to come.
"Careful, your fangs are showing". Muku said trying to come her down, as it would lead to making mistakes. Jade understood what he meant, she again made a "Hmph" sound but calmed down nonetheless.
.....
Bang! Bang! Bang!...
Muku repeatedly hit the giant table blocking the stairs many times, though not too loudly.
.....
Floor 7....
The eleven dogs that were led up by the bloody smell were now loitering on the floor. Five of them that were closest to the stairs leading up heard a sound. Their eyes twitched before they started to slowly make they way up the stairs. Since it didn't sound like any prey they had heard before, they didn't rush up, which was a lucky break for Muku's group. Because if even one had sprinted up, the rest woul follow.
...
"I can feel multiple foot steps, should be around four to six killer dogs, everyone get ready" Muku who had stopped making the banging sounds and now had his hands on the flow, warned the girls.
Jade looked at him with sparkling eyes, desiring to also step on the path of evolution and gain such sensitivity. She then held her axe tighter her eyes laser focused, with the stairs her target.
.....
Tap, tap, tap, tap....
A few moments later, familiar footsteps could be heard as the killer dogs had arrived. The interesting thing about these dogs was that they didn't bark, seemed to only know how to growl.
And growl they did, when they noticed the prey in front of them pocking their heads out from the top of an obstacle. They didn't wait to ask questions, nor did they have any in the first place, without hesitation, they sped up the stairs. Although for humans such a thing would likely leave them close to death with exhaustion, but for the dogs it seemed like a walk in the park.
Apparently they had the stamina every unsatisfied wife wishes her dog husband had.
(P.s the author is a virgin who has never even kissed a girl, so don't feel offended, even if you can't satisfy her, at least you do have her right?)
.....
"There are five, every get ready, don't let them get through the table!". Muku screamed out as he got ready to receive the leading killer dog.
The killer dog aimed straight at him as if it knew the man was going to attack it no matter who it aimed for. It got into pouncing position, and pounce it did.
"Honestly, I know these dogs aren't very smart nor where they there when I killed the other ones, but why do they always fall for the same trick?". Muku smiled wrily as he spoke looking at the dog getting ready to jump to at its death.
"Well it's likely because they haven't met anyone who fought back, so their vigilance against us is basically zero. Which you should be celebrating instead of complaining about I might add." Layla replied him as his prediction came true. The dog basically jumped at his axe and he killed it.
[One kill left....]
"I'm not complaining, just that, its always good to spice things up every once in a while". Muku said while pulling his axe from the dog, getting ready to support the others.
"Yeah well, when a dog spiced things up before, you and me almost died!". Jade who was fighting back a dog replied to him.
They had been shallowly cut so many times by the girls that their crimson eyes turned even redder with rage. They kept on trying to break through to their prey who kept on wounding them, which made them even more mad. And like that the circle repeated.
Emily, Layla and Jade managed to mangle their dogs so much that they bled out and died, setting them on the path of evolution.
[Condition for Evolution met. Kill 9 more giant dogs to reach Rank 1 Evolver and gain specialisation]
The voice and numbness familiar to Muku had finally made its way to their bodies.
Unfortunately, Chloe the otaku didn't have enough stamina to finish the job. Just when she couldn't lift her axe anymore and the dog was about to successfully jump over the table and take a bite. Great teacher Muku stepped in.
[Kill count met. Evolution Commencing. Initialising Specialisation. Individual found to be first human to meet the requirements. Ultimate ability to be generated as reward]
With that familiar yet unfamiliar voice, great teacher Muku fell unconscious.
