Hmm?
Knitting his brows, Zeke closed his eyes and began to expand his awareness to everything around him.
Just as expected, he detected a strange presence in the air.
As he closely examined the aura, he noticed that it wasn't the negative energy from the Netherworld, nor the vibe
that the Kush Clan gave off. Instead, there was an evil presence to it.
Ghoul energy! This is unmistakably ghoul energy! Damn it, why is such energy appearing here? Can this be the
residual energy left by the mysterious enemy? Do they harbor hostile intentions toward me just like those from
Netherworld and Mount Kush?
Zeke questioned Sole Wolf immediately, “Sole Wolf, since when and where did you feel this aura following you? Tell
me everything about the circumstances surrounding your encounter with ghoul energy.”
Sole Wolf replied, “I felt its presence not long after I left the military court. By the time I noticed it, I figured that it
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthad been tailing me for quite some time. Also, I know nothing about it. By the way, I feel really intimidated by the
aura. Realizing that I'm no match for it, all I could do was flee instead of investigating.”
Zeke nodded. “You're right. From the residual aura, I can feel that the enemy's strength exceeds that of an Ultimate
Class. In fact, it might even have reached Celestial Class! Perhaps, even I am no match for him.”
Gasp!
Sole Wolf couldn't help but caught his breath.
If even Zeke appraises him so highly, it's obvious the enemy isn't one to be trifled with. Looks like fleeing was the
right decision after all. If I had stayed and confronted the enemy, I would likely have been turned to dust.
Sole Wolf inquired, “Zeke, do you think the enemy is from the Netherworld or Mount Kush?”
Zeke replied, “I don't know, but it's unlikely he belongs to those two factions, for the aura he emitted is different
from theirs.”
Sole Wolf clarified, “In other words, there's another mysterious faction targeting us right now?”
Zeke confirmed, “I'm afraid so.”
The news disheartened Sole Wolf, causing him to sigh. “We have stretched ourselves to the limit just to annihilate
the Netherworld and Mount Kush. If we are to face a new enemy, tough days are what lies ahead of us.”
Zeke was surprised. “Only the dead have the luxury of enjoying life. How can a ferocious warrior like you be looking
forward to a peaceful existence?”
Sole Wolf chuckled mischievously. “Fine, Zeke. To be honest, I'm actually filled with excitement despite what I just
said. In fact, I wish we had even more enemies, as I just can't wait to scratch this itch of mine.”
Zeke ordered, “Come, let's follow the trail of ghoul energy and see if we can track down its owner. In the event we
do, I'll let you deal with the enemy so that you can get it out of your system.”
Sole Wolf's expression darkened. “Zeke, stop messing around with me. If I could stand up against him, I would
already be fighting tooth and nail instead of fleeing just now.”
Haha!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZeke didn't respond further as they continued to follow the trail of ghoul energy.
After pursuing for half an hour, they finally arrived at a busy part of the city. There, the traces of ghoul energy were
overwhelmed by that of the crowd. Hence, it was difficult to proceed any further.
Zeke was extremely disappointed. “Damn it, we lost him.”
Sole Wolf remarked, “Zeke, I think this is a good sign. Since the enemy doesn't dare show himself, it means that he
is weaker than you. Therefore, why should we fear him?”
Zeke shook his head and explained, “It's not that simple. I'm worried that he is hiding in Atheville and will threaten
Lacey and the others.”
Sole Wolf gasped at the possibility, for it was a real risk indeed.
Sole Wolf suggested, “Zeke, do you want me to get Northern Wolf and his men to protect Lacey from the
shadows?”
Zeke nodded. “Mmm-hmm, I'm afraid that will be necessary.”
Sole Wolf acknowledged, “All right, I'll contact Northern Wolf at once.”
Just when Sole Wolf gave Northern Wolf a call, Zeke's communicator suddenly rang.
When Zeke realized it was Killer Wolf, his eyes lit up as he answered it anxiously.
