Reincarnated As A Wolf With Cheats

Blanca, for a moment doubted his decision. It was not his fault though, anyone would ask the same thing if they were to find a wolf looking at the blank space and glaring at it.

In any case, whatever Shin concluded was exactly right. Even the system, which was trolling Shin all this time, had to admit it.

*Ding*

[ Congratulations ]

[ The host has figured out one of the hidden secrets of the system ]

[ The improper texts will be changed and the proper texts will be added ]

[ The host will be rewarded with an increase in the intelligence stat by 10% ]

[ Int: 292+29 || Max. Int: 999 ]

Well, he didn\'t feel any changes though after the rise in the stats.

Yes, the system did admit that it made the mistake, but the way it did was way too weird. Instead of a simple apology, it ended up congratulating Shin as if he had completed some hidden mission.

This only ended up pissing him more since he felt as if the system was continuing its trolling. Whatever, now that he got a raise in the int stat and realized the truth, he had a clear aim.

\'I have to raise my rank as soon as possible…\', he said to himself.

But then again, he wanted to be clear about the ranks and what it exactly represented. Whether it represented strength or rarity? Shin wasn\'t so sure, so in the end, he ended up asking the system.

\'System, can you explain to me about the ranks?\'

The system then started the lecture.

*Ding*

[ Ranks -> A form of measure of strength and rarity of a being ]

[ The increase in rank occurs when a being achieves a higher status and title ]

[ If the host wants to raise his rank, he need to level up quickly and evolve again to raise the status from Wolf Lord to Wolf Monarch ]

Shin understood what the system meant. Also, he noticed that the system didn\'t follow an exact pattern of evolution for Shin.

Rather, all it did was take some random names and associate them as he evolved.

Wolf warrior was in the evolutionary history, but then, Wolf Lord and Wolf Monarch weren\'t necessarily the next in line.

Shin understood that even earlier when the system meant that his level was lower for the remaining stats to be revealed, it was right.

Just that, Shin didn\'t understand the right way and only realized now.

Regardless, he had finished eating breakfast. The shadow wolves were so sound asleep that even the smell of the blood and food didn\'t wake them up.

Shin waited after finishing whatever he had. His mouth was covered with blood which was dripping continuously. The river was nearby so he just went and ended up washing his entire body and when he returned, the shadow wolves were finally awake.

"Ah, what nice dreams were you having?", Shin asked sarcastically.

"Your Highness…"

The shadow wolves looked at each other and then looked back at Shin only to end up apologizing.

"We apologize, your Highness, we were wrong."

"We shouldn\'t have slept.", they said.

But well, Shin wasn\'t even thinking about that. But after seeing them begging, he thought about acting tough as if he was irritated and angry because of them. He ended up forgiving them after they kept on apologizing.

In any case, since the matter was over, Shin then began walking towards the forest Islea. He had wasted too much time here so he thought about running again.

Blanca decided to move into the village as well. He had gained a crest too, earlier.

He left the mountain as he had nothing to do there. Yes, if he were to join Shin, then he would be able to teach a thing or two to Alira.

Also, he was the strongest among all the members that formed the Lou Shin Clan. Even Shin wasn\'t as strong as him, but yes, no one knew that. Even Blanca thought that Shin was stronger than him and this was one of the many reasons that made him readily accept him as his master.

Regardless, Shin ran as fast as he could while using his skills. Of course, he used the skill Speed run and Wind run. Although they did drain his MP quite quickly, he could easily rest even while moving.

Rest while moving? Yes. Shin got this idea only after thinking for a while.

His size was quite less. The shadow wolves that were with him, were more than twice as big as him. So, as he rested, the shadow wolves could just carry him on their backs.

In fact, they could do this the entire time without letting him do any of the work. But that way, it would take way too long since their speed was nowhere close to Shin\'s speed.

So, it was necessary for Shin to use his skills as well.

Nevertheless, he did that and soon enough entered the forest.

After entering it, he started walking slowly since it had been quite some time since he had come here.

\'This brings back memories…\', he looked at the familiar trees.

Even after a span of around a year or so, the trees were still the same. Of course, no beast or monster destroyed them.

He had mixed feelings – he was constantly being reminded about Kira and Siara and about how they were betrayed.

Especially, the brown wolves of the Biola clan, if he were to find even a single member of that clan, then he would, without any hesitation, kill them mercilessly.

*tap tap*

And as he continued to walk, he came across the place where Deoras and the rest were supposed to rest.

\'Huh?\'

\'Didn\'t I tell them to rest here?\'

\'Did they already leave?\', Shin was surprised.

Although it was about to be noon, he never expected them to leave without him.

\'Uh, I think Deoras made them move.\'

\'Sheesh, he is too punctual…\'

After letting the matter go, he continued down the path on which the wolf pack had passed.

Yes, the journey seemed quite peaceful; peaceful until a stream of blood was found after walking for a while.

Shin\'s eyes widened as he noticed a wolf\'s head that was stabbed and stuck on a tree.

\'Huh…?\'

\'That is…\'

At first, he indeed thought that a wolf\'s head was hanged on the tree using a spear. But when he took a good look at it, it was a fox!

Yes, the moment he got closer, he found that it was a Shadow Fox.

There was a lot of blood over there along with tons of dead bodies that belonged to foxes.

*gulp*

\'Just what the heck happened here?\', Shin was utterly confused with the scene.

He knew not what to think of it since it all looked like some massacre had happened here.

Even Shin, who had killed tons of humans back in Loria, felt this scene much more bizarre. That was because the heads of the foxes were handed on the trees using various spears which seemed as if they were made by humans.

\'System, how many of them have been slaughtered here…?\'

*Ding*

[ 439 bodies of dead foxes are found ]

The moment system responded that Shin was bewildered again.

\'No wonder a stream is flowing…\'

When it was mentioned that a stream of blood was flowing, it literally meant that a stream was flowing with a lot of blood. Yes, any more blood and it could end up becoming a Blood River.

Shin then found a lot more footprints on the ground. Yes, some of them definitely belonged to the wolves that Shin knew.

With his sense of smell, other than blood, he was also able to sense Aella and the rest of them.

\'They definitely went this way…\'

\'But wait, does that mean, these foxes were killed before them? Or did this happen after them?\', Shin was quite confused.

That was because the blood markings and everything else looked quite fresh. Yep, it was as if the massacre had happened a few minutes ago.

Shin suspected that, and his doubt came true. The killing had indeed occurred a few minutes ago, as per mentioned by the system.

*Ding*

[ It is estimated that the foxes were killed 20 to 30 minutes ago ]

*gulp*

\'And when do you think Deoras and the rest of them passed through this area?\'

*Ding*

[ The estimated time is about 40 hours]

And the moment he heard that he activated his skill Speed Run.

He suspected that the ones that killed these foxes were probably chasing Deoras and the gang.

For some reason, Deoras didn\'t choose to fight and thought that it was wiser to run. If this decision was right or wrong, Shin would decide only after re-joining them.

But of course, the moment he activated his skill to run as fast as he could, a different, entirely unrelated notification popped up which was definitely meant to slow him down.
