I knew the situation well and didn't want to burden Darian, so I had to focus on raising my spirits and trying to think of a way to escape from Max. As long as I can climb the tree, I'm safe. Max wouldn't be able to do anything to me if he was in wolf form, or if he transformed into a human, he wouldn't be able to climb the tree because he's significantly injured. So, my only goal right now is to climb that tree.Max isn't stupid enough to not know what I'm trying to do. He also guessed that if I succeeded in climbing the tree, he would fail, so he was defending so I couldn't get close to the tree.I held the dry branch tightly in my hand. A plan popped into my head. Instead of waiting for Max to attack me, I attack him before he recovers strength.I rushed towards him, holding a branch as a weapon. While studying in school, there was a time when I studied martial arts because I thought I could use martial arts to protect myself. I studied martial arts diligently for a year, but then
The sky has turned yellow, and the sunset shines on Darian's figure; his large and long shadow is printed on the green grass.Darian said coldly, "Let her go!" He tightened his grip on Max's neck. Max seemed unable to breathe; his body writhed instinctively but had no strength to fight back.Mark panicked but did not give up. He bit my neck harder. Pain and difficulty breathing rushed into my mind. It seemed like I could see the brink of death on my side."We do transactions. If you let her go, I will let him go." Darian said firmly. His eyes showed no trace of confusion, and it was strangely cold.A strange feeling appeared in my heart. I don't understand why I feel so uncomfortable.Darian tightened his grip on Max's neck. Max struggled helplessly and then gradually lost his strength. His eyes widened.Mark gave up. He quickly let go of me and let out a sad howl.Darian immediately let go of Max. Max fell heavily to the ground; his
At seven o'clock in the morning, Logan came to pick me up. Darian said I would stay in the army until the test results returned, so Maya helped me prepare a suitcase with all the necessary items and a few sets of clothes.Logan politely greeted me when he saw me. Out of politeness, I greeted him back. Logan was much friendlier to me than the first time we met. Maybe because I don't have to play the role of an overbearing person like Violet, Logan feels sympathy for my gentle personality.I also feel that Logan's personality is outstanding. He is loyal to Darian, communicates politely and delicately, knows how to look at problems, and is moderate with people. Logan is a good friend and professional assistant.I felt the atmosphere in the car was silent, so I talked to Logan to break the silence, "Darian didn't tell me what punishment he received, so I'm inquisitive. Can you reveal it to me? I won't tell Darian."Logan raised his eyebrows, "Didn't Darian te
My first visit to the Dark Moon Pack's military zone. I would have been very nervous, curious, and looking forward to something new, but all those emotions disappeared from my conversation with Logan.Looking through the car window, I saw that this place was very deserted, with no soldiers except the two gate guards I saw outside the gate. Logan said that the soldiers had gathered at the training ground to practice.This place is vast, with many different areas. Logan briefly introduced me to the areas here. If I walked, it would probably take me all day to get around here.I wasn't in the mood for sightseeing, so I just answered a few questions to Logan. He noticed that I was sad, so he no longer talked and drove me to the military medical area. This area is a high-rise building with twenty floors. Logan took me to the top floor. This floor has an extensive laboratory with complete equipment. There is also a bedroom with a private bathroom and all the necessary appliances.Before Log
Darian was embarrassed when he saw me sobbing. The anger in his heart also disappeared, and his attitude calmed down. He held me in his arms, gently patted my back, and let me cry. He said, "I'm sorry! Please cry. Let all the fatigue and stress be released."Darian's words of encouragement gave me the strength to cry even harder. After I finished crying, I felt much lighter and more comfortable. The negative energy accumulated in my head drifted away with my tears.Darian hugged me, whispering in my ear, "Are you feeling better?"I sniffled and nodded at him, "Thank you!"Darian picked me up and walked to my bedroom. He went to the balcony, sat on the recliner, and let me sit on his lap. The night wind blew softly, bringing an incredible feeling that made me more alert.Darian let me lean against his chest. His big arms hugged my petite body. The warmth from his body dispelled the coldness of the night.Suddenly, I heard his sigh. I raised my head and saw Darian's sorrowful eyes. I se
I reported the results of my research to Darian. Fifteen minutes later, he was in my research room with a cheerful face."Did you really succeed, Sharmaine?" Darian exclaimed excitedly. His hands grabbed my shoulders tightly. I smiled brightly and nodded at him.Darian was so happy that he hugged me tightly and lifted me, spinning me around a few times. I had never seen him so happy like a child, so I had no heart to cut off his happiness.After he calmed down and let me down, I said, "Darian, wait! I just found out the composition of the poison in your body. I haven't been able to prepare an antidote yet, so don't get too excited too soon."Darian replied, "You said that as long as the poison ingredients are found, creating an antidote is not a big problem. So, I believe you can create an antidote for me.""That's true, but I'm afraid I'm not 100% sure, so I don't dare give you much hope." I'm humbled."Don't underestimate yourself. You're so good. No one can find the poisonous ingre
Darian writhed on the ground, and his body convulsed continuously; the blue veins on his forehead and limbs bulged out terrifyingly, and the sweat on his body kept pouring out, soaking his shirt. I could see how much pain he was in, but he just gritted his teeth and endured it without even moaning.My tears fell uncontrollably. I choked up, calling Darian's name, but he couldn't respond to my words. I greatly blame myself; why did I push Darian into this dire situation? If I wasn't so eager to win, I should have the toxicologists test the antidote before informing Darian. Darian trusted me so much, but I let him down. It should have been me who should have suffered, not Darian. I am to blame him.Suddenly, Darian had a strange behavior. His muscles grew more prominent, and his clothes gradually fell apart. He couldn't help but scream."Darian!" I panicked and wanted to do something but couldn't. I could only stand still, watching Darian miserably.Soon, I was dumbfounded, looking at t
Typically, women and men will practice fighting together because when transformed into wolves, there is no gender distinction in fighting.However, combat training is not only in the form of wolves in the army. Everyone has to fight, even when transformed into a wolf or human form. Men and women have significant differences in human form, so that they will be divided up for different training exercises.At this time, female warriors were being trained to fight with weapons in training ground number five. Standing from afar, I saw the scene of female warriors wearing black T-shirts and stretchy fabric shorts. Sweat was pouring down their bodies, but on their faces were determination and resilience.In this world, everyone worships strength, so do I. I always wished I had a wolf soul to fight strong against other werewolves. These female warriors are a dream that I can never reach, so I always have a little respect for them in my heart.Logan's phone suddenly rang. I went to a corner to
Amanda and Erza almost fought but were separated in time. This commotion also attracted Alpha Harold and Darian."What happened here?" Alpha Harold asked solemnly.Everyone took the initiative to separate so that Alpha Harold and Darian could easily see Erza and Amanda.Erza quickly accused us first, "They bullied me. I just wanted to give Sharmaine some good advice, but she and Amanda scolded me."Amanda immediately objected, "No! You insulted Sharmaine, so I stood up for Sharmaine." Amanda looked at Alpha and said, "Please be fair!"Erza looked pitiful towards Alpha, "I didn't insult Sharmaine. I just gave her some good advice. Amanda misunderstood me and scolded me. She even wanted to hit me. I have never suffered such humiliation. It would be best if you treated me fairly. If not, I will tell my father."Although Erza appeared resentful, her words carried a menacing meaning that disgusted Alpha Harold and everyone.Darian walked up next to me as he walked past Erza. She thought Da
Titus deliberately did not hit me in my vital places, which did not end the battle quickly. He was playing with me like he was playing with a toy. He didn't even bother to transform into a wolf to prove to everyone that he could still defeat me, even if he were in human form.Elmer kept screaming in my head; he didn't want to endure this considerable humiliation, so he tried to restrain me so I could transform into a wolf, but I held back.I had to endure Titus's blows and suppress Elmer's desire to be liberated. For a moment, I fell into a challenging situation. Every cell in my body was hot; the blood in my body was boiling with anger and discomfort, but because of Sharmaine, I had to grit my teeth and endure.The more Titus fought, the more excited and aggressive he became. Not only did he beat me, but he also hurled many insults and curses at me. It was like this was the opportunity he had been waiting for so long to take revenge on me. I could only look at him with hateful eyes,
Round two ended with 134 people remaining. I rose to the top 1, making Titus very bitter. He immediately ordered his subordinates to stir up social media with news, reminding the people that I do not have a wolf soul. People admired my strength and intelligence but were still afraid of someone like me without a wolf soul becoming their Alpha. People always believe that Alpha without a wolf soul will weaken the pack.I didn't care about public opinion and quickly returned to my villa to celebrate with Sharmaine."Lady Sharmaine has arrived at Moon Castle, Sir!" Maya said."What did she come to Moon Castle for? How long has she been gone?" I asked, feeling uneasy in my heart."She left about half an hour after the second round of the competition started. She received a message from Moon Castle; the content of the message was that Alpha and Luna wanted to meet her." Maya replied. She still trembles when facing me.If it were a text message from Moon Castle, I wouldn't have needed to worr
The car has directions, so I don't have to worry about getting lost. After leaving the forest, I entered the highway. I drove at a speed as fast as the wind. I relaxed because I had left the forest. I hoped to find a car on the road, but the road was very deserted; there was no car other than mine.Because it is a highway, both sides are empty lots full of weeds or desolate and dry land with no houses. After driving for about fifteen minutes, I saw a black car before me. I should have been glad I was seeking help, but I didn't understand why my gut told me I shouldn't stop.My car and that black car were getting closer and closer to each other because both cars were running at a fast speed, so the time was only measured in seconds. I didn't have time to think, so I finally followed my hunch. When my car and that black car passed each other, I could see that inside that car were two men with ordinary faces. They also saw me, and our eyes met for less than a second.When my car passed t
When Mira touched me, I suddenly opened my eyes and threw the bottle of paralyzing poison into her face.Mira was surprised, so she screamed, instinctively covering her face with her hands, but it was too late; she had inhaled the toxic powder. But this type of poison does not work immediately; it takes three to five minutes to take effect. So, for now, Mira still has strength.When Mira panicked because of the poisonous powder, I sat up and kicked Mira's stomach, causing her to move backward. Then I got out of the car.Mira was a warrior with many years of training and quickly regained her composure. She rushed to control my hands when I tried to open the car's front door."Damned! Damn whore! Why are you still awake?" Mira was angry.Mira didn't know I knew martial arts, so she wasn't prepared. I forcefully freed myself from her and turned around to punch her in the chest. Mira was pushed backward.When she saw me doing a martial arts pose, her eyes widened in surprise. She said, "Y
*Sharmaine's POVThe competition had only started a few minutes, so there was no tension. What I'm looking forward to is seeing the transformation maze. People watch this round not just to see players fight each other but to learn about the mystery of the Mystical Maze.I had heard of Mystical Maze before, but I hadn't had a chance to see pictures or information about it. Mystical Maze is considered a military secret of the Dark Moon Pack. This place makes other Packs tremble with fear and curiosity, so images or information about Mystical Maze are never disclosed to other Packs.Although information still leaks out, ordinary people never know it, and that information is not considered accurate because Mystical Maze is constantly changing.Compared to looking for the moment Darian appeared on screen, I was much more interested in Mystical Maze. I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. I waited attentively until the screen shook, the contestants' faces panicked, and a few embarrassing m
Contestants have one day to rest before starting round two. Round two is called Mystical Maze. In Dark Moon, a vast underground maze is located under military region 4. It was built a long time ago; the original purpose was to use it as a shelter for soldiers if there was a sudden enemy attack, a place to lure the enemy and then kill them enemy. This maze was a massive fear for enemies who had lost in military Region 4.Later, the maze was repaired and improved. It is used as a training ground for soldiers or a place for rigorous tests in the military. This maze was challenging for the soldiers, making them struggle and bitter.In the maze, there are many mysterious traps. You may lose your life immediately if you accidentally touch an underground organ. In addition, there are also wild animals in the maze, such as lions, bears, poisonous bats, and so on. The maze includes high-tech traps such as lasers and robots. In general, a maze is a challenge that requires the player to have mor
Closer to the finish line, we met more teams and fought more. Teams near the finish line are divided into two types: having many cards and no cards. Teams with many cards do so because they want to reduce competition in the next round, so instead of just stealing one card, which is enough, they decide to steal many cards to eliminate more teams. The team still hasn't earned any cards because they were stolen, but they don't give up; they want to set a trap to steal the teams' cards that come later.No matter which team we face, we can easily win. Because the abilities of my four teammates are strong, plus I have leadership abilities, and we work together very well, almost no team can make things difficult for us.A few teams use hidden tricks such as anesthetics, hallucinogens, or some poison that does not affect life but affects fighting ability. We did not falter because of those dastardly tricks because before entering the competition, Sharmaine had prepared an antidote for me that
*Darian's POVThe competition occurred four days ago, and my teammates and I have gone halfway. Currently, we are stopping in a forest to rest."Our journey was so smooth, no team dared to attack our team intentionally," Amanda said."If we keep going like this, we will reach our destination two days before the end of round one," Michael said excitedly."Don't be so happy. Do you want to reach your destination without two cards? Even if we arrive early, we will still be eliminated from the competition." Logan said thoughtfully."Don't worry, we will meet our opponents in the following days." Kevin was grilling fish but still joined in the conversation.The allowed time for this contest is ten days, a reasonable time the organizers calculated. If the participant is not disadvantaged, he can reach the destination within nine days, or if he runs non-stop, he can reach the destination much sooner. The extra time is for teams to fight each other and recover their health.I don't participat
