The Devil's Cage Chapter 1309 – Showing Off Natural Gifts
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
A cold aura was overflowing from the Frost Wolf pup. It shrunk its body around Kieran’s feet with squinted eyes.
Its odd-colored eyes, one brown and one blue, were showing the glimmers of intellect, especially when the three white marks on its forehead shined with a bluish-white brilliance, it looked like three ghastly fires.
The whole process lasted for around 5 minutes. When everything was over, the Frost Wolf pup didn’t change in appearance, but its aura was strengthened without a doubt.
[Name: Frost Wolf (Hybrid)]
[Type: Mystical Beast]
[Rank: Lower Medium]
[Attack: Average]
[Defense: Average]
[Attribute: 1. Worry; 2. Frost Breath]
[Special Effect: Intellect]
[Prerequisite: The person that it recognized]
[Remark: This is an early-stage Frost Wolf pup that has been blessed. It is much stronger and smarter than other Frost Wolf pups, but it still requires delicate care and training to be a reliable helper and companion.]
…
[Worry: When attacking with claws or teeth, Strength +1, Agility +1]
[Frost Breath: Fire a Weak level Frost Breath to attack a single target within 3-meter range, once per day]
…
[Intellect: Increase a certain level of intellect.]
…
Compared to its original attributes, Attack and Defense were one rank higher, reaching Average. [Worry] gained an extra Agility buff and [Frost Breath] increased its range.
In general, it didn’t really change much in the roots.
But, so what?
The Frost Wolf pup only ate one [Ice Remnant Pieces], there were still four more to go.
The pup looked up at Kieran, Kieran nodded with a smile.
The pup then quickly ate the remaining [Ice Remnant Pieces].
When all four of the [Ice Remnant Pieces] were eaten, some apparent changes finally occurred to the pup. The three white marks on its forehead were more prominent, its body was bigger, like a dog of 3 to 4 months in age and not a little puppy that drinks milk anymore.

More importantly, the attributes of the Frost Wolf changed drastically.
[Name: Frost Wolf (Hybrid)]
[Type: Mystical Beast]
[Rank: High]
[Attack: Powerful]
[Defense: Powerful
[Attribute: 1. Worry; 2. Frost Breath; 3. Tenacious Fur]

Under your meticulous guidance, it entered the growing stage smoothly. It’s slowly becoming a reliable helper and starting to show off its remarkable gifts]
…
[Worry: When attacking with claws or teeth, Strength +2, Agility +2]
[Frost Breath: Fire a Powerful level Frost Breath that strikes a single target within a 15-meter range, twice per day]
[Tenacious Fur: The seemingly smooth fur has an unimaginable defense. It can withstand attacks no higher than Powerful rank, including but not limited to, stab, blunt, and slash attacks. It has extra Strong defense against Fire, Poison, and Lightning elemental damage, and additional Extreme defense against Ice elemental damage]
…
[Intellect: Increase a certain level of intellect.]
[Hide: Since its birth, it has been around you, learning and imitating your habits. A hiding technique is one of the skills learned, has a Grandmaster level of Undercover]
[Gifted: Its paternal gift grants it the ability to learn techniques easier; its maternal gifts grant it intellect and the ability to cooperate.]
…
The Frost Wolf shook its body and walked around the room as if it was trying to adapt to its new-found powers.
The process lasted for around a minute before the Frost Wolf ran back to Kieran’s feet, curling up into a ball.
Compared to this puppy stage, the new Frost Wolf would help Kieran even more, not just in terms of strength but attitude-wise as well.

Frost Wolf, during its puppy stage, was obedient but quite hyperactive, unlike the growing stage in which it became quiet while maintaining a certain level of vigilance.
Kieran was scrutinizing Frost Wolf, Frost Wolf was also looking at Kieran.
Then…
Frost Wolf turned its head around and bit the chair’s leg.
“Teeth grinding?”
Kieran jolted, he could feel the happiness from the Frost Wolf’s heart, so he didn’t stop it.
Even though the chair was bitten into shreds within minutes.
It was just a chair, why care?
Kieran extended his hand with a smile and touched its head, then he took the remaining [Ice Remnant] out.
Frost Wolf’s attention was instantly captivated by the [Ice Remnant].
“Do you still want it?” Kieran asked.
Frost Wolf nodded right away, but it then shook its head.
“You want it, but after the consecutive power-ups, you still need time to digest everything?”
Frost Wolf’s movements and the feeling through the connected heart allowed Kieran to grasp its meaning precisely.
Kieran couldn’t help but smile when he saw Frost Wolf nod again.
It was a smile of praise.
Kieran tried his best to overestimate Frost Wolf’s intellect, but based on the actions it displayed, Kieran was still surprised and delighted.
While facing great temptation, even common men couldn’t resist, it was hard for one to think straight under such circumstances. Instead, they would act like wild animals that followed their instinct.
From the moment they were born, they lived to survive.
Eating, mating, moving, everything done was to continue their survival.
“I hope you can surprise me more.”
Kieran bent over and carried Frost Wolf in his arms once more.
He softly caressed its head to its back, causing Frost Wolf to squint its eyes.
The room quickly quieted down, only Kieran and Frost Wolf’s breaths were heard.
Time passed, seconds became minutes.
The sun slowly set on the horizon.
Darkness descended on Eiders again.
A swift black figure moved out before the night truly came.
The figure swiftly infiltrated the station, and without being noticed, the figure entered the heavily guarded underground facility.
The figure seemed to be familiar with the place, just like how the figure could silently infiltrate the place, the figure also knew where the target was.
The morgue!
The figure avoided all the guards and finally stood in front of the cabinet labeled ‘Wilberst.’
The figure pulled the mortuary cabinet eagerly and checked the body inside.
Then, a smile hung over the figure’s face.
Without lingering further, the figure carried the body and went back the way he came from.
No, more precisely, the figure was sprinting towards his next destination.
The Graveyard. The Central Graveyard.
The grave of Arwena Algo Zelgar.

Scholar of the Fog
Leaving a trail of blood as he climbed up a hill, his limbs felt like lead. He was gasping too, his lungs burning with every step he took. It felt like a bundle of broken glass was scraping away the inner walls of his flesh. He was dying, obvious to both him and his pursuers. And it would not be long till he dropped dead as he bled away. If not, the people chasing him would surely finished what they had came for. It was as if the Gods themselves had already predestined his fate. He took one step forward and stood at the peak of the hill. He let his legs rest as he could barely go on. Heaving deep breaths, he could hear sneering voices and shouts behind him. They were close, and the grim realization stoked the embers of his most primal fear. He did not want to die. He had dreams, like any other youth. There was glory to be had in this world. He wanted to learn more of life, and lived through its motions. He wanted to live. He swept his gaze, and across him was a spanning forest of old. With a glint in his eyes, and jaws clenched, he decided to gamble with all he had. He was dying, and by now, it did not matter where his grave was. He ran down the hill, and stopped where the plains and the forest met. His eyes swept about the trees, and he could feel an instinctual urge to drag himself away. He knew what this forest was, and here, he would find his salvation. Or his doom. The voices behind him grew closer, and among the noise was the faint clanging of steel. Gritting his teeth, he ousted all the will he had from the depths of his soul and stepped forth into the forest. Damned he be by the Gods if they wanted him dead. -new synopsis 10/6/2016 ---------- A new chapter would be released every friday. And the quality of writing should improve each time, hopefully. Another important thing to mention is how the story as of now, is only a bedrock for a massive world if it ever gets there. (CH18) And if possible, reviews are very much appreciated. ---------- For the ones who are interested in the old synopsis: With one foot in the grave, he ran away for that little bit of hope. Exhausted and bleeding, it was only a matter of time until he passed out. By then, his fate would be sealed and he would be no more. Thus, he had to make a decision that might just save his life.

There, in the darkest depths of the forest, was the ghastly fog and behind him where men who wanted his head. Left with nothing else, he stepped forth and crossed the boundary of the living and the dead. Henceforth, his fate was forever changed. No longer just a scholar, but something more…

The Little Things...
Set in the fictional universe of Runeterra (League of Legends™), the story follows four stout spirits known amidst circles of sorcerers and sages as Yordles on their journey across the vast and fantastical world they inhabit. From the treacherous waves outside Bilgewater to the parched deserts of Shurima and the peaks of Mount Targon. The party at first seeks monetary gain in the acquisition of noteworthy artifacts desired by their employer and fellow explorer, but soon finds that there is more to be gained in the relationship forged along the way and the experiences found within them. This series is more a conglomerate of short stories than a fully fledged novel with every two or three chapters being confined to its own miniaturized arc before another one starts. There will be updates semi-regularly and apologies in advance for any niggling grammatical errors, I'm not a published author.
