Chapter 323 Changing Perception, Retracing A Path

"You… You…"

The sight of the werewolf staring at his dead daughter even as he let out his last breath made for great drama material, but neither Leo nor Yeon had the time to care for something like that. Without further analysis, they dashed to assist their comrades.

With only one werewolf still holding on against Cheon Yong as well as two avoiding Cheon Sohee's precise slashes, the number scale finally dipped in the Four Heavenly Beasts' favor. Following the Black Heaven Jade's orders, the blades made of pure bloodlust directly pinned down the lone werewolf to death!

Crackle!

Sending the Silver Dragon flying once more, Leo's attack managed to exterminate the exhausted one out of the last two. However, the last monster didn't completely come out unharmed. Just getting distracted alone cost him the loss of a third of his body to Sohee's wind blades…

"Gawwooo…"

ρꪖꪁⅆꪖ ꪁꪫꪚⅇ​ꪶ​ His sorrowful howl at the pitiful conclusion that they reached despite making all of these sacrifices highlighted the end of the elite wolves under Sohee's follow-up slash. The generals' preemptive strike was a huge success, but they were not satisfied with just that!

In the time they spent dealing with the werewolf army's true force, the remaining monsters were already reduced to match the Heavenly Strength Society's members, but Leo's side was obviously more exhausted than the werewolves who took turns to enter the stage in the order of their death.

The werewolves' fate was already sealed! A battle of death like this would be helpful to the lacking members, but casualties would appear. Rather than sacrifice everything for just one chance, Leo preferred repeating the process till it succeeded!

Rushing to crush the werewolves from behind, Leo and the other three went completely berserk. With no one to hold them at bay, preserving their strength was unnecessary! All that was left was a battle of complete annihilation!

"Hold strong. Baekho Hyung and the others are back but do not waver. We can't make a mistake by being complacent!"

As the strongest and the most aware, Jang-Do brought a fatal self-trap to light. Everyone was too mentally exhausted and visually occupied to realize anything, but once they relaxed, the chances that they would stand up again were null. High morale could go both ways…

Swish!

"Let's do this!"

"One last push!"

Blades and claws met each other as desperation tackled hope. With four large knives stabbed in their backs, the last werewolf let out his last breath before he could howl out his anguish. Just like that, Leo's first large operation had come to an end and it was a complete success!

Zero casualties, enemy extermination, there was no better outcome, but the situation was only turning for the better.

[ Plot Change confirmed. Unique event occurrence has been detected. ]

[ The Reader's Character has managed to replace one of the protagonist's future footprints, taking over a portion of their achievement. ]

'I had some guesses, but this is too much to pass by!'

Leo couldn't help it as his lips curled into a smile. In reality, he was only aiming for something that would make a larger impact rather than targeting Geochin in particular. However, it seemed like he had to change that mindset of his. There was much to be gained by headhunting the protagonist's future good deeds!

The world's timeline was already a mess, but the Murim League's footsteps remained steady, acquiring a spot at the center of the limelight was but the protagonist's destiny. In the same manner, tracing his steps was equal to partaking in the glory!

The act itself appeared useless to Leo as more and more opportunities would appear for Geochin's sake even if he were to snatch his. Nevertheless, just the immaterial gain of points was enough to change that perspective.

'Guess we will be heading to the closest target after all.'

"Everyone, the starting mishap couldn't be helped, but you did very well today! Let's quickly deal with the disposal so we can rest at the closest settlement."

Of course, nothing could be immediately done after such a harsh and shocking battle. Just like any proper leader would, Leo chose to deal with the battlefield before bouncing!

`~~~`~~~`~~~`

The Four Heavenly Beasts had emerged!

Information wasn't that easy to transmit in the current situation, but such words were quickly circulated among the interested. Out of nowhere, one of the Heavenly Strength Society's members visited a branch of the Monster Hunter Association to report the annihilation of a whole monster lair.

"I only came to report."

Before he could even be denied the reward for the subjugation, the Martial Artist refused to even receive points as credit, stating that he only came to clear the fog regarding the accidents happening around the lair.

However, many were skeptical when seeing the hundreds of furry ears that he brought with him. At this point in time, most monsters were already classified into major species that were easy to identify. When compared to distinct new features, they looked like common wolf ears.

"Here is the relevant information…"

Despite the member being kind enough to provide information for a new type of monster, a lot of people doubted the authenticity of the Society's chivalrous actions. In the end, it was only when a group driven by their unquenchable curiosity paid the rumored town a visit regardless of the lurking danger that the truth came known to everyone!

An empty ghost town! Even though the shops and houses looked like they were just full of life very recently, there was no single soul around. Many imaginative guesses went through the heads of the inquisitive monster hunters, but they quickly found the answer to all their questions when they came upon a field that was recently dug…

"Just what-"

Digging away the earthly cover after some hesitation, a large pile of bodies filled their view. The humanoid bodies looked deceiving at first glance, but the pitch-black fur made everything clear. A whole town of hidden monsters had been annihilated!
