《reborn: wolf man》chapter 41: death
Advertisement
I get up early in the morning dawning my armour
“What can be swallowed, but can swallow you?” (codex)
“what is this codex?”
“a riddle do you have an answer?”
“no...”
“pride, something you have to much of. You must fight dirty to win. Wining is everything. Lose your pride Charles”
“...”
I go and get PAIN and FEAR and then head to the arena. I arrive and see the crowd is completely stuffing the arena. I see Kolburn he has 2 people standing beside him.
“whats this? I thought only familiars were allowed?”
“the headmaster made a new rule for every familiar you bring I can bring one person with me.”
I inspect the two people with him and start laughing
“HAHAHAHA long time no see DRAKE and what was your name again?” (me)
“her name is Megan who are you?”
“oh you don't remember me destroying your ghosts seven years ago?”
his face pales and so does Megan's they were both defeated by me.
“Kolburn do you like riddles?”
“sure give me one the principle is running late anyways.”
“A young man walks through the forest. He comes to a bridge. In front of the bridge is a large man carrying an axe. The man says, "If you want to cross this bridge, you must tell me a statement. If I think the statement is true, you will be strangled to death. If I say the statement is false, your head will be chopped off." A few minutes later, the young man walked over the bridge, while the larger man stood pondering. What was the statement the young man had given?”
Kolburn simply looked at me and then looked at his companions. After ten minutes the principle arrived.

“ Kolburn the answer is The man said, “My head will be chopped off.” something you will soon know”
“ya right you kill me that's insane”
“are you ready?” (principle)
“yes”
“yes im ready to kill this scum” (Kolburn)
“FEAR attack the middle one, PAIN get the girl. Ill get the dark mage”
since the other team could not here us they were quite surprised when we all picked targets. Drake saw me and sent his ghost minions at me. They were a lot more this time close to a hundred. They entered me and I couldn't even move. Seemed that he had enough in numbers to stop me. My body started convulsing and I fell over. I could slowly feel the ghosts disappear and Drake was casting some sort of spell on me. After about two minutes I felt the ghosts fleeing and I got up. He caste a wind spell and sent me flying.
“I learned to add some back up spells in case I ever met some other monster like you!” (Drake)
I simply get up and ignore him. His attacks that aren't dark are pitiful compared to how fast I regenerate. I look around, PAIN looks heavily battered but so does Megan she was burnt and frozen marks all over her body and looks like some of her hair got caught in the acid spray. The battle between FEAR and Kolburn is much different. FEAR is to slow to keep up but his attacks can penetrate his armour. I turn back to Drake and rush towards him. He launches several fire and earth attacks but with my physical power its to much. I punch him right in the face sending him flying. He hits the far wall and it looks like he is a broken toy his arms in legs are in positions they shouldn't be. I look back over to FEAR and Kolburn looks like nothing has changed. I then look to PAIN seems that Megan bitch is to much for PAIN. He collapses and falls over. I rush towards her drawing my sword and she sees me at the last moment. She puts her hands up to block the blow. It never comes to her face, I duck under her raised arms and stab her in the gut breaking the skin the stomach and then through her back.

I pull my sword out and let her fall screaming. I turn around to see Kolburn stabbing FEAR in both eyes with mana spears.
“KOLBURN I WILL KILL YOU!!!!” I screech and then codex takes over my body. He puts my hand to the ground and I can see the mana enveloping my arms from the rings. It drains a whole ring and then I regain control of my body. I look up to see three whole legions of goblin-men. They look around see me and start yelling.
“GOD HAS SUMMONED US, WHERE IS OUR PREY?”
I point towards Kolburn. The three goblin-men captains start yelling orders. I look around at the crowd its dead silent. I see Angel and the girls and beside them John. Angel has a faint smile and John has a look of surprise. Everyone else in the crowd however has looks of fear in their eyes. I mean I did just summon a bunch of demonic beasts. I can hear Kolburn say something behind me.
“you are truly a great opponent for making me take of my limiter”
I can feel the mana change behind me. The goblins surge forward and he butchers them as if they are normal goblins. Pieces of flesh are going everywhere. Its overwhelming my mind. I can't move. The goblins don't stop rushing forward till they are all dead. Kolburn looks up breathing hard.
“you *ha are a truly *ha Strong opponent”
he then moves faster then what I can see and I am suddenly flying forward my back is broken its painful. I land in the middle of the bodies and hear the principle yell
“match over Kolburn has won.”
“ya right old man this is a duel to the death.”
I can feel my body reconstructing my back. I hear Kolburn arrive beside me. I can feel something crawl all over my body. What is this a spell?
“how do you feel now Charles? The girls will come to me now they are attracted to strong males am I right or am I right?”
he keeps gloating his victory for about a minute. And then steps on my shoulder.
“well its time to end this battle is it not? Prepare to die.”
I can see Angel and John running towards me.
“stop don't kill my teacher of magic!!” (John)
“NOOO stop” (Angel)
he lifts his sword with a frown and looks down
“even though i beat you, she still likes you, why?”
I don't respond and close my eyes.
SWISH CRUNCH
I open my eyes and see my body is still attached to my head. Some blood falls down right in front of my face. I look up and see a black like two tails extending from my amour going right through Kolruns neck and out his mouth and one through his chest. I get up slowly and look around the ground littered with goblin-men flesh has no armour on. Angel and John are standing less then 5 meters away.

Corpse Crawler
Ludwig Lock wakes up in a hospital bed to find a weeping woman at his side. After some crying, more weaping and confusion, Ludwig discovers that that lady was his ten year old sister, and that he's been in a coma for fifteen years. He also learns that the world he had grown to know was no more since heroes, villains, and super powers inhabit the streets, being regarded as a lot of things withing an endless spectrum. Just when he was about to finally get started with his new life, Ludwig faced a streak of bad luck, the last event of this chain setting him up to die so a vigilante can save himself. After suffering the worst beating of his life and experimenting the incompetence of the law, Ludwig decides to use his own hands to achieve justice. He will face difficult challenges, traumatic situations, and probably horrible stuff to get his life rolling. But at least he's got a friend to help him. Not a normal one though. ---- IMPORTANT: I personally identify powers as a fantastical element, which is why I don't find weird the addition of other elements of the same vein if it stays within the logic of the world. New and old chapters get updated with relative frequency, (new chapter every week, though it may be delayed a day or more to problems or some other reason) and the story is in a draft-like state, meaning it will probably stay the same but there will be changes on the prose or writing. Also, I would apreciate if it is known to me (Respectfully) which points should I improve on.
