It’s… getting kinda hard to think. No traps left. Only one wolf dead. One shot at {Glare of the moon}.

If it was only one of them, I could survive, but with six? I can’t be so sure.

First thing first, I used my one shot of {Glare of the moon} to paralyze them all, and then I jumped on the alpha and attacked him with all the energy [Photosynthesis] could gather. After about thirty seconds the alpha started moving again and threw me away to then charge at me. As it was about to bite me and tear me apart, I used [Thread manipulation] to close its mouth, then I used [Poisonous dart] in its eyes. As it stumbled backward, I then used a point blank [Spike launch] in its side to pierce through its hide, I then used [Poisonous bite] in the wound.

As the alpha stumbled until it fell down on the ground, the other wolves began moving again. They all slowly began to corner me, sadistically leering at me, as if to taunt me but also to express their rage at what I did to them and their two members I killed. I think that’s when one of them activated a skill, making the poison in my body unbearable.

Everything was going black, my thoughts were dissipating, until only one thing remained.

I don’t want to die.

I don’t want to die.

I won’t die.

I won’t die like this.

I won’t die in combat, fighting for my life.

That’s when my body stopped wobbling from the poison induced fatigue, that’s when my breath stabilized.

That’s when I stopped thinking, and started acting.

What happened next was not a pretty sight.

While I desperately tried to overpower an enemy many times stronger than me, I didn’t go unscathed. My wings were bitten off, one of my legs was broken, I had multiple internal wounds, but somehow, I survived. While my recollection of what happened is hazy, I think I remember seeing three of them escaping after seeing me fight on despite my injuries.

I then woke up a night later, a puddle of blood beneath me, and standing on the bodies of four wolves.
