Demon Slayer: Rise of The First Werewolf
Chapter 129: Other POV(1)
Lexie ran as fast as she could whine trying to maintain the speed of a top athletic human. It was during the day so she couldn’t use her full speed.
Unlike the original 13 and the two who were assigned to deal with the dark market, she didn’t have the rings that hide them.
She looked back and saw her partner, he was more muscular but slower than she was.
The two of them arrived at the location they were supposed to protect, it was a massive art gallery.
" Shit, this will be harder than expected." Her partner complained but she just grinned.
" What’s there to worry about, if we fail we can always just call the top dogs, if the boss shows up, do you think anybody can do anything in his presence?"
Her partner didn’t even think twice before nodding. This was a common understanding amongst them.
When the sky is falling, the boss will hold it up. " We need to blend in." She suggested to her partner.
He nodded and they went to get new clothes, since they didn’t have any money they just used compulsion.
" Man I love being a werewolf." She beamed with a huge smile. Lexie had never thought her life would end up like this.
She was an A student, went to college but unfortunately fell in love with a wrong man. He stole her college fund.
Then he ran away with another girl, a girl Lexie had called her best friend. This broke her so much she couldn’t do anything.
Eventually she lost her part time job, lost her apartment and ended homeless, then they found her.
At first she was terrified, especially when she learnt they weren’t even human but they treated her better than any human ever did.
The first month, she kept hearing about the boss, anytime the werewolves were talking about this boss.
It didn’t sound like they were talking about a superior but more of a God. Secretly she mocked them for being fanatics.
It wasn’t until she became a werewolf herself and met him that she understood, that aura like the moon itself shining upon her.
Anytime she’s in his presence, her knees give out and she finds herself kneeling. To her, the boss was an unshakable mountain.
However like all the werewolves, she kept wondering how powerful he actually was, not just based on their own awe for him.
Which to be fair, was bias considering their feelings towards him and not long ago she witnessed a fraction of his power which was still more than hers.
" Are you ready?" Suddenly her partner brought her out of her thoughts and she nodded.
" Lets go." They went inside the gallery pretending to be guests. They walked around.
At some point she ended up liking the art on the walls. " This one looks pretty, do you think the boss would like it?"
She asked her partner who wasn’t showing much interest in the art. " I do not dare presume to know what a great being like him likes.
Do as you see fit, the boss is benevolent, he might appreciate your effort more than the art itself."
Lexie felt her mouth twitch, she was devoted to the boss but this guy was a fanatic at the level of lady Suzie.
Every word that comes out of his mouth was praising the boss. They continued browsing through the gallery.
Eventually the sun fell and it was time to leave. Instead of leaving they compelled everybody else to leave.
Then stood facing away from the door, this was intentional of course and had a purpose.
After some time, they smelled the scent of blood then felt multiple vampires approaching.
" So, you’ve come. Good you’ve saved us the effort of tracking you down." She started talking. ’ I bet the boss would think this is cool.’
She thought to herself with a grin, Lexie had watched anime which the boss loved and strong characters acted like this.
Talking without even looking at their enemies, revealing their back because they’re so strong they don’t even need to be careful.
Then her partner turned and faced the vampires. ’ This idiot, doesn’t he know how cool what I was doing was.
Now he’s ruined it, well no matter, it’s not like the boss was here to see me anyways, I should save it for when he’s alive.’ 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
She took turned and faced the vampires, there were five of them and all of them barons at level 2.
If this the former them, they would’ve struggled to even survive against so many level 2 barons.
But now, they were level 2 themselves and were an entire rank above the barons, the conclusion of this fight was already decided.
" Who are you?" The leading vampire asked warily. From the report they got, there shouldn’t be more than 16 Werewolves.
But they’ve received reports of others being attacked around the city and the number of enemies was counted to reach 15 at the very least.
Even the report of Dalaway did not include so many Werewolves. Actually, Dalaway only reported 16 Werewolves.
He senses them but he couldn’t sense the Gemma Werewolves and the club couple Isabella and Diego since they had rings.
And when the fight happened, the presence of Adrian and the others made it impossible for him to sense the auras of the weaker werewolves.
His conclusion had been that, it were the same ones he felt but they had tried to hide their auras before.
He had no idea how wrong he was and the others were about to pay for his own failures. Lexie’s partner stood forward.
" You are not worthy to know my name, I’m a servant of the greatest of men, the ruler of the night and king of all wolves.
Devourer of the moon and world of men. I’m a mighty werewolf and it is your honour to die by my hands."
He kept waking forward then summoned his weapon. It was giant silver hammer that glistened in the darkness of the gallery.
" Rejoice, for I will present your heads to the great lord and receive his praise! Your deaths will be noble!" He spread out his arms and shouted.
Even Lexie felt shivers, ’ Ow this guy is even more nut than lady Suzie, that’s rare.’ she walked forward and stood next to him.
" You’re a weird guy but the last part doesn’t sound so bad, his praise does sound like something I would really like as a birthday present."
She summoned her own weapon which were two Tri claw blades nearly 30 cm long.
" Well partner, let show them the might of Werewolves."
Her partner nodded, " I shall instil the fear of my master into them."
