[Day 14]
Two weeks had gone by since I reincarnated in this world and I have not even found a single person to talk to.
Well, I am not a "person" myself anymore, but a monster, maybe.
Does this world consider dragons as monsters or maybe we are respected as a race?
I do not know… But I wish.
I mean, could you imagine that I go to a village and people begin to suddenly praise and worship me as some kind of Divine Beast? That would be nuts.
Nah, that is way too good to be true.
Although I had noticed it before, through this training I decided to curiously check this one sealed Skill I have, the one I never thought I could actually get to begin with.
Ding!
<Analyze has been activated>
<Unique Skill: [God] (Sealed) Information cannot be seen>
So because it is sealed I cannot see it?
Hey System, at least tell me how to unseal it, alright?
…
…
…
No? Nothing at all?
Okay then…
Today in the morning my ice and wind magic had improved a tiny bit more than before, I can kind of make longer knives, but anything else is quite hard!
Agh! I thought I was going to become the master of ice magic now.
I guess there is a lot more suffering to go through before that…
As I begin to eat the last bits of meat of the wolf I hunted yesterday, I suddenly hear a loud howl.
Once more these guys are hunting…
Wait.
Why did I hear it… pretty close to me?
No way.
They came here.
But I made sure to not leave any trails.
I guess I should never underestimate the smelling sense of a freaking wolf.
I have to escape.
If they find me in the cave I will be surrounded by all the pack and eaten alive!

I might have strong magic but not infinite mana, maybe I can take down a few, but not a whole pack!
I quickly jump out of the cave as I heard loud barks from my rear.
I begin to dart through the snow immediately after, without even looking behind me!
Shit, shit, shit!
I feel like muscles tense up as a chill runs through my spine.
Suddenly, a flash of blue light emerges above me and a large icicle falls over me!
CLASH!
Uagh!
…
…Eh?
However, instead of dealing with damage, I feel that a bit of energy is absorbed into my body.
Oh, so Ice Absorption even works with penetration attacks such as these even if it could perfectly pierce through my flesh?
And of course, the one that did that was the big wolf right at my back, the Pack Leader, I assume!
However, it gets surprised when his long-ranged magic attack is completely shattered when it hits my body turning into more mana for me.
Well, how does it feel to send your strongest attack only for me to absorb it like a meal?
I quickly use this new energy to run even faster, there is no way I am fighting these guys, they are 7!
Seven might be a lucky number for some folks, but for me, it means doom at this moment!
Although I felt a tad bit triumphant after taking such an amount of damage and absorbing it like a snack, I really don't want to fight these guys!
I quickly look at the big pack and manage to Analyze them.
They are all rather healthy, and no one is particularly tired!
And the Wolf Pack Leader….
…
Name: Nameless.
Race: Ice Wolf Pack Leader (Male)
Mana Core Cultivation: Rank 1 (Middle Stage).
Status: Wrathful.

105 STRENGTH?!
And his vitality is over 200!
I am really dead if he touches me!
Thankfully, his long-ranged attacks can't do damage to me thanks to Ice Absorption, but his dexterity is incredibly high, which means that as soon as my mana begins to deplete alongside my energy, he will catch up to me!
But where the heck should I run to?
I keep running, and we are about to reach the other side of the forest.
Should I delve into the forest?
No, these guys always hunt in there, it is literally their territory!
But I cannot hide anywhere if I am here in the open.
What do I do?!
"GRAWL!"
Suddenly, the Wolf Pack Leader roars loudly, as an aura of crimson red energy begins to emerge from his body!
I see as all of his stats begin to increase except magic and mana!
This is… his Berserk Mode.
Suddenly, his strength increases tenfold, and he catches up to me in no time!
The guy literally appears right to my left!
"GRRAAAWWL!"
He roars furiously, as he aims his jaws towards my head!
Well, thanks for giving me such an opportunity!
I quickly conjure a long ice knife, and send it right through his throat!
"Grraawr?!"
It gets surprised when I released the knife, as it begins to choke, the knife easily pierced through his neck, and a downpour of blood begins to come out of his jaws.
He quickly stops and begins to cough while trying to get the ice knife out of his throat, but I quickly aim at his eyes with more knives!
Slash! Slash!
The other wolves are way slower than us and are still a few meters away, so this is my opportunity!
I release spiraling gusts of wind, carrying the ice knives towards the Ice Wolf Pack Leader's eyes, as I see his Vitality quickly decrease!
I have decided it, I am just going to kill this bastard right here!
"GRRRRRRRRAAAAAWR!"
The Wolf quickly enhances himself with more of the Berserk Mode ability he has, which consumes almost all of his Mana in an instant!
He pounces towards me as I am way too slow to evade him!
Although Ice Monsters have resistance to Ice, I have never met one with actual immunity or absorption to it, this is why my ice knives are dealing so much damage.
I concentrate my mind through this small second, using High-speed Thought Processing to its very limits!
FLASH!
Suddenly, an ice blade emerges, and then I push it further through the use of the gusts!
CLASH!
The blade reached right into the wolf's throat once more, as it groans in agony, loses its balance and original trajectory, and I jump to the side, managing to swiftly evade his deadly bite in time!
Ugh!
Boom!
The beast falls over the snow, motionless.
I inspect it through Analyze, it is death!
"Growl!"
"Awwoooo!"
"Grawr!"
However, before I could even check it a bit more, the other six wolves dart towards me, I killed their boss and now they are freaking angry!
I wish I could eat this bastard's Mana Core, but I decide to run away for my life, my mana decreased a lot already.
I will survive at all costs.
