My Werewolf System Chapter 120: An experiment

Chapter 120: An experiment

Gary had decided that he wouldn’t use Charging Heart right off the bat and keep it as a game changer. His stats had vastly improved since yesterday and his ‘fight’ this morning had been more of a beat down, so he wanted to use this opportunity to check how much he had grown. It would also be a good opportunity to try and learn how to control his Heart rate without having to spend his Energy.
Still, there was one thing that he didn’t have that he did have before and that was the power of the moon. Even with Charging Heart he had been having trouble catching up to the twins and had needed to focus on his Strength.
The two twins immediately started to run towards the two of them and they were just as fast as Gary remembered.
“Green Fang!” Innu shouted, making sure to use his stage name. Quickly coming over to his side, Gary placed his back against Innu. To be honest the two hadn’t focused on teamwork during their training session. The time the two had spent training together had been too short to realistically get used to fighting together, especially since both of them fought in different ways.
As such, the two of them had come to the conclusion that their best shot at winning a tag team match would be to force their opponents into 1v1 fights.
Sren was the first to attack by stepping to the side and throwing out a kick, yet lifting his arm up Innu was easily able to block it. The attack wasn’t too heavy but it stung a bit as the kick had been fast and sharp. Looking straight ahead though, he had lost sight of the short haired teenager. Or so he thought.
He then could see that Sren was holding onto his brother’s arm, and was swinging his brother’s body, the kick was simply made more so he could balance better. There was a reason why it was light, with the momentum, the kick from Leng went around the side of Innu, heading towards Gary’s stomach. It was too quick for the teenager to block, but he was able to tense his stomach before it connected. It didn’t wind him due to this but it still hurt.
[- 4 HP]
The kick was strong, and a lot of those in the crowd could see that it should have been quite the heavy blow, not surprised Green Fang fell to the ground at that moment.
‘Hahaha, seems like I was wrong, having a high Endurance stat isn’t that bad!’ Gary thought, as he went to grab Leng’s leg before he could pull it back, but just like in the rugby match, they were far too fast and slippery for him.
‘Yeah, looks like there’s no need to worry about Gary, he can take hits better than a punching bag, so I’ll just focus on doing my part!’ Innu decided, attempting to grab Sren’s head, but he pulled back just in time avoiding the grab, his fingertips had missed Sren’s face by an inch, then quickly leaned forward and ran ahead.
Innu braced himself again, planning to knee his opponent with good timing but nothing came his way, and that was because Sren had gone behind him and he was aiming once more at his tag team partner. This time, the punch came towards Gary’s face, who he managed to block just in time, but then he could feel another blow hit him in the ribs again.
[-2 HP]
He went to block that hit, but then was being hit from the other side. That’s when he noticed he was being pummeled from two sides. Eventually not really knowing what to block Gary was being hit more than he should.
[-2 HP]
[-3 HP]
[-2 HP]
‘Crap even with all this Endurance I
can’t do anything. Do I really need to use Charging Heart so soon?’
Whenever Innu would go in to try to help, the others would split up and run away doing the same thing. It was a hit and run tactic, with Gary as their target. If Innu tried to chase after one of them he would just tire himself out running around the ring. He was quite good at trapping people getting them into a corner if it was a one on one, but this wasn’t.
Unfortunately their tactic was proving quite effective.
‘Come on Gary, I’m going to have to rely on you for this one!’ Innu thought, seeing the two of them.
Concentrating hard, Gary was focusing on their movements. They were running across each other and had split up the two of them. If Gary tried getting close to Innu they would just come in between and attack them. He knew he was the one that needed to break this cycle.
‘They can’t be that much faster than me right, I know my Dexterity is low, but it shouldn’t be impossible to catch them!’ Gary thought.
Staring hard, Gary was concentrating. Since the attacks were hurting him little by little he decided to take them head on. No longer was he focusing on blocking them and instead he was concentrating on watching their movements.
They kicked his thighs, his side, and the only thing Gary had done was turtle up using his arms to block his face while staring through a small gap.
Seeing this, the crowd started to boo loudly. Since Gary was doing nothing but just standing there.
‘Whatever, do you think I care about you people? The only thing I care about is beating them and earning my rewards!’
Finally, Gary thought he had somewhat figured it out, and bringing his hands down there was a punch thrown out.
“You’re just a sitting turtle who will eventually fall!” Sren shouted.
The punch went right to his face hitting Gary’s check and flinging his head slightly.
[-4 HP]
“You guys…are just like those annoying squirrels.” Gary smiled looking at Sren, and for some reason the smile had caused the hairs on his arms to stand up.
‘So they’ve decided to target him.’ Austin concluded. ‘His punches might be powerful but that doesn’t mean much if he is unable to connect them. On the other hand, it looks like Innu can’t use his techniques due to them running about all over the place. This seems like a bad match up, good thing I didn’t bet on it.
‘Hmmm, but that guy came looking for me… Did he just overestimate those two? And why does it feel that the green hair is far slower than on the roof?’
Unbeknown to him, there was another person who was slowly approaching Austin from behind. The teenager was unfortunately so engrossed in the fight, that he was unaware.
‘You look to be the most remarkable around, and we don’t exactly know what this will do, so I’m just going to test a little bit on you and see what happens.’ Raven thought, as he pulled out the syringe.
