Reincarnated As A Lion In Another World-Chapter 156: Fist Against Water

A few minutes ago, just before the light of the sun started creeping out of the horizon.

Two humanoids were currently walking side by side, conversing with each other while they were guarded by five large wolves.

These large wolves were a bit different from the regular tier 2 wolves. From their aura, they seemed stronger than the average tier 2 wolf but definitely weaker than a tier 3 wolf. They were at their peak, just a few resources away from evolving.

These five wolves were deputies, the wolves that were second only to Commander Bibi. They served as the generals of the wolf army and as advisors to other high-rank caste leaders.

Now, they walked in silence, escorting these two high-powered beings on their stroll.

"We’ve patrolled the east meadow, I think we should keep on expanding as fast as possible," One of the humanoids said as he turned his head slowly, scanning the surroundings.

"Indeed, I would have preferred we expanded to the west, in the direction of the wolf plains. But the King has been against it because the elephants are in the way, it’s dangerous." The second humanoid said as she also looked around.

"Those long-nosed guys are indeed dangerous. Maybe direct violence isn’t the way to approach them…"

"Nonsense, the only reason we haven’t gone to crush them is because they are stronger than us. It’s very simple, don’t make it sound complicated, Bibi..." Diane shook her head.

"Well then, if we continue expanding to the west, we’d be going in the direction of the end of the world. We would eventually reach the ’sea’, that’s what the king calls it." The man referred to as Bibi responded.

Diane nodded, "That has always been the plan, Burdo’s usefulness diminishes every day."

The two human-looking figures that were conversing telepathically were obviously Diane and Commander Bibi.

It’s been two months since they evolved to the next tier.

Even in their humanoid forms, there were still a bit of differences even though they had the same powers.

Commander Bibi was big if put in plain terms. He stood at a height of seven feet tall, his height as a wolf would definitely match that.

His face was similar to Bibi III, his dead father, bearing some resemblance with the nose and jaw.

His hair was a mix of grey and black, falling to his shoulders in a messy form. His eyes were a deep yellow decorated by a pure black pupil in their center.

Commander Bibi had a wide and muscular neck that connected his head to his very muscular body. Every movement he made caused his muscles to bulge and his scars to look more menacing than they already were.

Bibi looked like a hulking mass of suppressed strength.

On the sides of his shabby head were two pointy ears that were grey. Behind him, attached to his waist was a fluffy wolf tail that swept from side to side. He might have a stoic expression but his tail couldn’t hide how he felt.

The conversation excited him, any talk of conflict and fighting excited him.

Diane, who was beside him on the other hand, was a bit different. She was just as tall as Bibi, seven feet tall.

Not just Commander Bibi, Diane was also the same height as Kael. She was effectively now the tallest lioness they had in the group.

Apart from her height which made her look down on almost everyone, she was also muscular.

Her muscles were not as pronounced as Bibi’s. She had her abs, powerful thighs, strong calves, lean and athletic forearms, and straight back. Despite her leaner, feminine but muscular stature, she was still ripped.

Diane looked like someone who had close to five percent body fat.

Her face was beautiful, oval-shaped with a pointy jaw. Her deep brown hair was tied into a ponytail that fell to the middle of her back.

She had thick eyebrows that cut to the sides of her face like miniature swords. Beneath those fierce eyebrows were a pair of the usual lion eyes, brownish-yellow iris with deep black pupils.

She also had a long tail behind her and at the end of the tail was a tuft of fur that matched the color of her hair.

"Anyways, not long ago, one of the Hawk Watchers came to make a report…" Commander Bibi said as he looked down, thinking about what the hawk had reported.

"What is it?" Diane asked. They continued walking, heading to the south side of the mountain where the prison caves were.

"He described something strange, he said he had been flying, watching over some fox merchants that had gone to make a deal at the borders.

Nothing was wrong with Fox merchants though, nor their customers.

But the Hawk said that just when they were rounding up, something big sped over from the distance and passed over him at a frightening speed.

He couldn’t describe it well but from what I got, it was a massive flying beast made of metal. The beast had no mouth or eyes yet it flew fast.

Another detail he mentioned was that this beast had multiple magic runes etched on its body, different from the runes he had seen from N’bayé.

Although it had passed over his head swiftly without causing any harm, the pressure the metal beast exuded was enough to force him to fly lower than usual.

That flying metal beast had never been seen before," Commander Bibi summarized what he had been told.

"At our borders? So far away, no wonder we did not notice it. Should this be marked as a threat?" Diane asked with furrowed brows.

Commander Bibi’s tail moved on its own, wagging at the sound of the word ’threat’. But he had to control himself and be reasonable.

"We would need to collect more information, maybe send more Avian Intel agents to investigate where it came from and possibly where it was going.

Although, the Hawk Watcher said that the metal beast was heading east, the same direction as the sea," Commander Bibi said.

They had reached the back of the mountain where the prison caves were.

Diane nodded, "Okay then…"

*BAM!*

Diane was cut off by a low tremor that spread through the ground. Looking ahead, a massive lion’s paw made of water had just smashed three wolves into meat paste.

Not too far from this scene was a little white-furred bear, Kurse, who stood frozen from fright.

"KURSE! COME BACK NOW!" A telepathic wave surfed out like a mini tsunami from the lioness farther away from the ice bear.

"Olivia?" Diane frowned, Olivia currently had her back to Diane and the rest so she did not see them.

Diane’s legs had already moved as her natural combat awareness allowed her to instantly sense the danger.

Diane shot forward, cracking the earth beneath her feet and leaving Commander Bibi and the wolf escorts behind.

As the white bear rushed back to meet Olivia, a thick stream of water rushed out from the cover of her trees, chasing after Kurse with unhidden hostile intent.

A loud roar escaped Olivia’s throat and a bright yellow halo spread out from her body. This caused a slight change, the snake-like stream of water that was previously pursuing Kurse sped up, intending to overtake Kurse and reach Olivia first.

Just before the stream hit Olivia, Diane who had managed to reach them in time rushed forward to slam her shoulder into the entity inside the stream.

*BOOM!*

A low booming sound spread from the collision of the two forces and the ground cracked under the pressure of Diane’s legs trying to support herself.

Olivia was happy to see Diane but not too much, she already expected that something or someone would save her, she was that confident in her luck.

Diane didn’t have time to think about all that though, she was busy using her left shoulder to push against the blue-skinned entity inside the water stream.

From the corner of her eyes, she could see water whips with swirling pointy tips coming out of the steam and shooting at Kurse and Olivia.

Registering the threat, Diane balled her right hand into a fist and the muscles on her whole arm bulged. The air seemed to vibrate under the sheer might of the rising fist.

Without thinking too much, Diane threw the punch straight at the blue-skinned man inside the water stream.

*BOOF!*

The water stream exploded from the sudden influx of so much kinetic energy. The blue-skinned man was launched back like a ragdoll shot out of a cannon and the water whip fell to the ground, forming puddles.

Diane found herself to be soaked, thankfully, she was naked as usual and only her hair was drenched.

She looked behind her to see that Olivia and Kurse had already escaped to the protection of the five deputy wolves.

Commander Bibi was currently walking toward her with his deep predatory eyes locked on the blue-skinned man who had landed on the ground, ending his locomotion with a roll.

"Aaarrgh!" A deep howl of pain escaped the blue-skinned man’s mouth as he touched his chest to feel the bruise and his broken ribs.

Still, he sat up with a frown as he suppressed the agonizing feeling and looked Diane straight in the eye.

"So, does he hide behind you too?"
