Crimson Overlord

There was a flash of mockery in the eyes of the lead wolf, whose entire body was as white as snow.

At this moment, the wolf packs dispersed, and the lead wolf gradually made his way over like a victor. He was exuding an endless aura of murderous intent.

Amber stared at the approaching wolf. The palm of her left hand carrying the sword was drenched in sweat. She quietly took a deep breath, in preparation for the last strike.

Today, it was hard for her to escape death. If she could slay the Alpha before she perished, she considered herself to have gained something.

"Swoosh!"

The Alpha leaped vertically. A violent aura enshrouded the air and charged towards Amber.

She opened her mouth and took a deep breath. She lifted her chest high and used the rest of her blood origin. The pulsation of her flesh and blood was visible on the surface of her skin.

"P-sst!"

Flows of air surged into her lungs crazily, giving out a strange noise.

''Blood Strengthening: Bloody Sword!"

This was one of the Blood Arts sword techniques; she had used it against the skeleton soldiers summoned by her to help her train.

Amber lifted Dáinsleif using one hand, dashed directly toward the alpha, and aimed for its head. At the same time, her left hand threw a surprise attack with all of her might!

This was already considered Amber's most powerful strike.

There was a flash of fear in the alpha's eyes. He had not expected this. However, he still reacted; the humongous figure of the alpha was extremely agile. He dodged in the air to avoid the Dáinsleif coming towards him and landed his claw on Amber's chest.

Initially, this claw could penetrate her chest directly. However, Amber had smashed her hand on the side of the wolf's body with all her might.

"Roar!"

The Alpha howled in pain. It was flung away by Amber. After rolling on the ground once, he climbed up rapidly and shook his head, seemingly fine.

Meanwhile, Amber had already run out of ideas and energy.

Although the sharp wolf claws did not punch through her chest, it had mangled it.

She was thrown off by the explosive impact from the lead wolf's blow. She looked like a kite with broken strings as she tossed up and then dropped down towards the pack of wolves.

Amber had lost all his strength. She swept her gaze across. Beneath her, numerous wolves were salivating and opening their mouth, waiting for the moment that he dropped to tear him to pieces!

"I refuse to die here, but what can I do?"

She began to feel dazed. If only she could use an attribute, for example, wind element used by the alpha, it would save her from her current predicament.

''I must think of something, anything.'' She closed her eyes and try

At the sight of Amber falling into the pack of wolves, a figure suddenly flashed in the air; nobody seemed to notice this presence, not even the Alpha with his sharp senses.

Naturally, this person was Orpheus; he had been watching Amber's journey since the beginning, he knew everything, and he was a little bit proud of his subordinate, and as a reward, he would help her awaken her first attribute.

A small white ball made of the world's purest origin was gathered under Orpheus's command before he sent it directly into her chest; it was too fast nobody noticed anything. The origin ball penetrated through Amber's origin core located near her heart.

Crack!

A cracking sound followed, and the former white origin core turned partially red; another color seemed to occupy Amber's origin core, just that it was blurry; it was her second attribute, the one Orpheus was looking forward to seeing.

Immediately after Orpheus activated Amber's origin attribute, she instantly felt the change. Her body turned red to the point it began emitting heat, the wolves who were about to pounce on her stopped confused, only their leader, the Alpha understood that something was amiss, he immediately howled, ordering his subordinates to attack.

Howl!

The wolves immediately tried to pounce on Amber; when she opened her eyes, two red lights flashed through them, followed by flame exploding from her body.

Boom!

Caught off guard, most of the wolves were burnt in an instant, the scent of burning flesh filled the air, but Amber was unfazed; she knew she must let this opportunity go to waste; therefore, she shot toward the alpha, who was shocked by how powerful her flame origin attribute was.

''Blood Arts: Bloody Sword!"

Swoosh!

Dáinsleif cut through the air; finally, the alpha was back to his senses; he howled and sent his claw covered in wind attribute forward.

Kiin!

There was a short stalemate when the alpha's claw and Dáinsleif clashed; Amber knew it was because she was not strong enough to wield the sword; if not, that attack would have cut the beast's claw in two.

However, she was not distressed; finishing the alpha with her sword had never been the goal any; it was to create an opportunity for the real attack to land. Amber was the type of person who preferred relying on her body than a tool because she knew her body better.

Squeezing all her remaining origins and converting them into pure violent flame, she punched with her left arm.

Fwoosh!

Alarm bells began to ring in his head. The alpha wanted to dodge but soon found that he could not escape because his claw was glued to Dáinsleif like a magnet; somehow, he felt strength and vitality slowly leaving its body.

The next thing the alpha knew was a fist covering the world, followed by a sickening sound.

Crunch! Boom!

Amber's flame fist crushed his head before it exploded, and his brain turned into dust. The remaining wolves who saw this scene were scared; they immediately escaped in different directions.

''I won!" Amber declared, pumping her fist into the air before losing consciousness right after.

Orpheus appeared and caught her body; he smiled with unusual gentleness.

''You did well. Time to leave and go to Wratharis to enroll in the academy.''

Amber seemed to have heard his words because her lips curved upward into a thin smile.
