Tempest was breathing hard after beating the first orc, but the fruits of her labor also came immediately, 'This is definitely the best way to progress, I can't believe how well it's working already.'

She smiled has her mind returned to the fight, the next orc had a spear while the other, who was much bigger, used nothing but its fists. She sighed, 'Another annoying hunting tactic, getting poked and prodded with a spear to change my focus to allow the other orc to knock me out, or get stabbed. Then the spear user also has range.' She was trying to do all the calculations quickly in her head and came up with another plan. The orcs got into position with the spear user behind the unarmed one and was using the spear as cover for openings. When the unarmed one had an opening for an attack the spear would be thrust there to prevent her from getting a hit in forcing her to dodge while having to block the attack of the unarmed orc. She went in for a feint, and sure enough the spear came into the spot she was feinting her attack and she ducked down quickly and stabbed the unarmed orc right through the foot so the blade pierced into the earth momentarily pinning to the orc to the ground as it let out an agonizing howl. Dodging a wild haymaker from the unarmed orc she rushed into close range of the spear wielder making him unable to effectively use the spear. With an unarmed strike to the solar plex she used the moment he bent over stunned to shift his weight over her shoulder as she flipped him head first into the ground knocking him out. She turned in time to see the other orc stand after removing the dagger from his foot and she quickly dashed over and gave many consecutive cuts, this made furious as he attacked aggressively. Tempest was too quick for orc to get a hit in and with all the numerous cuts on him he ended up getting too light headed to continue and laid on the ground before passing out.

Panting, she smiled again. She had never been forced to train like this it was always much more a theory style teaching method where you go over forms and techniques. Since she was the daughter of the regional alpha they were too protective over her, though knowing her father she could understand why. She refocused on the leader of the orc party, who brought out a massive two handed axe. She charged in counting on her speed to overwhelm her opponent, however, she went in too earnestly instead of feeling out her opponent first and she got clipped by the axe as it moved much faster than she thought possible. She dropped her dagger and clenched her arm as blood trickled down to the floor. "This orc isn't their leader for no reason, leaders are generally merit based," warned Soren. Hurt, she came up with an idea she thought might work but she couldn't totally commit until she knew so she would feint to test the waters of the ability. She charged the leader orc who laughed, "You should've listened to your friend there girly!" He wound up for a big swing, he turned the head of the axe sideways and was getting ready to swing it like a baseball bat, to knock her out as oppose to killing her, she would make a fine reward for him as leader. With the orc twisted at the ready, right before getting into his attack range [Predatory Gaze]. Tempest's eyes glowed amber, cold sweat began to drip down the orc's neck as he felt these piercing, malicious eyes bare into him, he felt his body involuntarily shudder. Tempest got within range and retreated a step and sideways in case the orc swung, but didn't so she dashed in quicker [Adamantine claw] as she swiped, punched, and disarmed the orc before pinning him to the ground. "That's enough," announced Soren, "good work, thank you guys for entertaining us." Soren went to their bags and found a medicine kit where he went to bandage the ones that needed it. Tempest just stood there looking very perplexed, a series of emotions on her face that Soren couldn't place, "M...my evolution is been initiated!"

Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.
These are amazing, all of them, but I am really only deciding between two. The full moon won't be such a double edged sword if I can control my transformations. Which lycanthrope do I want to pick?
After several minutes of debate she felt more options were better for survival so she steeled her resolve.
Getting extremely sleepy she slumped to the ground and passed out. Soren princess carried her over to a clearing and after making her a litter set her down and watched over her evolution process, upon waking up several hours later she got numerous notifications.

A rush of information along with moving visuals entered into Tempests' mind. She opened and closed her fist a few times, black fur grew on her hand as her hand enlarged and grew razor sharp silver claws before turning back to normal.
'I may finally be of some use,' Tempest thought.
