Wolf of the Blood Moon: A Blood Magic
Book 6: Chapter 16

Scarlet

I float up into space towards the house-sized Class IVs, letting out a low growl as I do so. A growl that shakes space around us.

Meanwhile the Class IVs – massive blobs of tentacles, claws, and scales that are trying to pull anything and everything into themselves – continue moving closer to me without stopping. Likely locking onto me due to my size being larger than anything else close to them other than the planet itself. Which is too big.

As they move, I make sure to look around for any Class V void creatures. But I don’t find any.

Unfortunately.

Then again, would’ve been obvious if there was one. They do tend to range from the size of an asteroid to the size of a small planet after all.

Would be kind of hard to miss.

After failing to spot any, I focus on the fifty-five or so Class IVs heading my way. Void ravagers if I remember their designation correctly. A name given by who knows who.

Not actually sure who named them. Just that Oberon called them that when describing the void creatures.

I have to admit though, even if they aren’t that threatening to me. Seeing fifty-five creatures the size of medium to large sized houses floating through space towards me is rather creepy. Especially when they’re just blobs of tentacles, claws, and scales.

Very creepy.

Anyways, I raise one paw before slashing through the air at them, sending a powerful arc of pure pressure towards them just from my swipe alone.

But the pressure is mostly blocked by the scales that move up to the front of the creature in order to block it. Even if the scales end up cracked in the process.

My eyebrows raise a little at the fact that it could actually block that swing.

They don’t stay up for long though as I move straight up to one of them while growing in size. Then I kick it like a soccer ball at another ravager nearby, thereby sending that one flying as well.

And as simple as that, all of the ravagers end up flying around like balls on a pool table.

Rather amusing to watch.

Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

Of course, when one nears the planet, I appear before it and crush the thing into a paste, devouring it seconds later with my Red Plague.

Because I can’t have any collateral damage while I’m out here testing out the power of these ravagers.

I’m not just playing around with them after all.

Definitely testing their strength.

I continue testing their strength for a few minutes before growing bored and devouring all of them. Finishing off the last of the void creatures for this part of the invasion. But to my surprise, Oberon doesn’t teleport me right away.

Probably busy with the tournament if I had to guess.

So, out of sheer curiosity, I shrink myself down while turning back into my regular lycan form, then I begin to float down towards the planet. My hair blowing wildly in the wind the moment I enter the atmosphere before calming down again. And, of course, while I transformed I also made sure to form my clothes. My usual black shirt and pants and black jacket with red trim.

Because I’d rather not flash anyone who’s looking up here.

Or, anyone, really.

I float down towards the largest city I find, only to see millions of people looking up towards me with awe in their gazes. And more looking up at the now-clear skies, clearly awed by the lack of any void creatures. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ N0vᴇlFire(.)nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

What surprises me though are the people themselves.

They aren’t human, that’s for sure.

Or most of them aren’t.

There actually seem to be fantasy races amongst them. Which is really cool.

Fantasy races from video games and books I mean. Creatures like elves and dwarves and lizardmen and beastmen and the like.

Which in hindsight makes me wonder what they think I am. Since there are beastmen down there.

Wonder if they think I’m some sort of wolf beastman or something?

Then again, they saw me transforming into a massive wolf. So I kind of doubt it.

The city itself looks very fantasy-like as well, with relatively smaller buildings. Honestly a lot like a fantasy city from a video game.

Even has a castle on the top of a hill next to the city.

A castle that also happens to have some man flying out of towards me with a strange creature flying next to him.

Huh. Odd creature.

Looks kind of like a pixie, with paper-thin wings and a size spanning only like a foot in height.

I wonder if it’s the ‘spirit’ thing for this world? Since I know the other worlds had their own spirits that contracted with people. Just like how Tartarus has the fae, and then later on Earth too due to the Fractures.

Interesting.

If I remember correctly, their contracting ends up giving them benefits to growing stronger too. And not all worlds have spirits.

Of course, I could be wrong and that could just be a normal species on this planet.

But I get the feeling it isn’t.

That aside, the man flying towards me has a crown on his head and a fancy flowing robe. So I think it’s safe to say he’s some sort of king.

When he reaches me he starts talking, and thanks to the System I can understand him. Just like all of the muttered whispers about a wolf goddess, goddess of blood, goddess of the blood moon, and savior goddess that I hear down across the planet. All referring to me.

But I just act like I don’t hear those as I listen to the kingly guy talk.

“If you can understand me, beautiful and all-powerful Goddess of the Blood Moon, our savior and hero, we thank you for everything you have done for us,” the kingly guy says while bowing midair. And his spirit does the same.

Then he just goes silent for a few seconds, making me awkwardly float up here while staring at him with my arms folded under my chest.

Huh.

So much for ignoring them if he’s just gonna call me it too.

This is gonna be annoying, isn’t it?
