Parasites, Magic And Revenge

White wolf



After easily defeating the first level, Miles immediately initiated the second. This time, Raven faced a simulation of someone around their age, with moderate martial arts skills. The simulation assumed a guard stance, anticipating an attack from Raven. Without hesitation, Raven charged forward and delivered a powerful punch to the simulation’s guard, but this time, the simulation’s skin was tougher. Raven quickly followed up with a kick to its abdomen, sending it to the ground. Taking advantage of the opening in its guard, he landed a deadly punch to its face, ending the second level.

Raven and Miles exchanged glances, silently approving each other, and Miles launched the third level. This time, the simulation was physically superior and far more skilled in martial arts. Raven grew serious and charged in with his usual aggressive style. He aimed a kick, but the simulation grabbed his leg and hurled him into the wall. Raven used the momentum to his advantage, bouncing off the wall and rushing at the simulation with a guard up. The simulation took a defensive stance, but with Raven’s forceful momentum, it was futile. They crashed into the opposite wall, both sustaining damage. However, the simulation appeared to absorbed the damage for Raven too . As soon as Raven got to his feet, he delivered a powerful punch to the simulation's abdomen, knocking it down again. The blow wasn’t fatal, but it would take time for the simulation to recover. Raven pounded the downed simulation repeatedly, exhausting its strength.

Finally, Miles activated the fourth level. This time, a white wolf unlike anything Raven had ever seen appeared. It was twice the size of a normal wolf, standing as tall as a human. From behind the glass, Raven’s voice was muffled as he asked:

"Isn’t this a bit much?"

He had no choice but to retrieve his sword. The wolf looked poised to attack first, but it was also waiting for Raven to make the initial move. Instinctively, the wolf leaped forward. Raven thought he had dodged its pounce in time, but the wolf's agility didn’t match its enormous size; it twisted in mid-air and snapped at Raven’s arm. He quickly backstepped and narrowly avoided the bite, realizing how dangerous this creature really was. Standing before him was a 170-centimeter-tall giant wolf with razor-sharp teeth, its agility far surpassing that of any average fighter. Raven understood that winning this battle was beyond his current skills. He needed to develop a new technique.

As he considered every possibility and outcome, each one led to a scenario where he would lose. "Magic… I can’t use magic because I never figured out my affinity during the test. I’ve never practiced magic… The affinity test, huh? The professor told me during the test that I had an instinctual warrior’s body. If I can combine my techniques with my instincts, maybe I can create something new," he thought. But he had no idea how to go about it.

As Raven wrestled with these thoughts, he tried to figure out how his instincts could merge with techniques he hadn’t yet used. "If I can combine my martial arts with my intuition... maybe I can defeat this wolf," he mused. But how?
