My Werewolf System
chapter-743

The Shadow Fighter was blocking Nox’s way from escape, but he had no clue who this person was. He wouldn't involve himself with the affairs of kids, even the recruitment of the delinquent students were handled by the other gangs that were under the Scavengers.

So he had no clue who the Shadow Fighter was, or anything about them, but from looking at their uniform, a memory did enter his mind.

“Oh, I see, you were one of the ones that interrupted the last fighting tournament. I did get a report of that, what is wrong with you people? Why do you have a grudge against me!” Nox shouted.

“Do you want money, are you one of the factory workers! I’ll let you go and give you what you want, just get out of my way!” Nox shouted.

Frustrated, Vere ran forward and went in for a strong kick toward Nox’s head, but he had swiftly avoided it as he ducked down, and then with his own leg kicked the Shadow Fighter in the centre of her body causing her to stumble and fall over.

Rolling from the ground, Vere was quick to get up, but didn’t go in so rashly this time. They were in a hallway, so the two were more direct against each other, so it was harder for her to use her agility.

“Did you think that I couldn't fight or something?” Nox said. “Look, there’s a reason why I’m the leader of the Scavengers!”

Out from his belt, Nox pulled out a small blade. He dashed forward and Vere thought he was going to use it as a weapon but instead he hurled it toward her. Vere avoided it, but a fist was soon thrown out right at her face.

It hit the side relatively heavily, but at the same time she managed to lift her leg up and kick the side of Nox’s head. It had hit him in the temple, and as his body moved to the side he tried to grab onto Vere but instead had just grabbed onto the cloth around her face.

As he fell, he pulled and the cloth had come off, revealing who it was underneath.

Adjusting her jaw, Vere looked straight at Nox, even with the mask off, she wasn't worried nor did she falter.

“It's you… you!” Nox said, surprised at first, but then filled with anger. “What the f*ck, my own daughter, why are you doing this…”

“Oh, I see.” Nox smiled. “It’s because of your b*tch off a mother. I’m surprised you were so attached to her from a young age! You knew what she did wrong, haha, she tried to go out with another man, when her eyes are only meant for me!”

“You disgusting creep!” Vere shouted, as she went in for another kick but Nox moved out of the way, she had done so this time as well not wanting to get hit badly a second time.

“You're allowed to have multiple women, and when you throw my mom out like trash, she isn’t allowed to find someone… so you kill her, you have that right, to take someone so important out of my life!” Vere shouted.

“You… I hate the fact that you're my father and your blood runs through my veins. I’m just happy you're going to see the face that gives you a beating!”

Nox started to let out a maniacal laughter.

“And this is why I hate women. You know, I never wanted to have a daughter, but all you women kept giving me girls, five girls and not a single boy! I know, women will never understand, especially little girls like you.

“F*ck it, I’ll just kill you here, and the rest of your sisters before they can do something stupid like you. You are too emotional and don’t even understand my actions!”

Nox decided to use his natural strength. He felt like since he was a man he would be able to overpower Vere, so he just charged in ready to rugby tackle her down. Seeing this at the right time, Vere jumped and shoved her knee right into his face.

His head was knocked up and blood started to spew out. Before Nox could recover, she threw out another kick, hitting at the side of the head again, causing him to fall to the floor.

“Did you think I did nothing this whole time?” Vere said. “Do you have any idea how hard I worked, how many fights I’ve been through to get to this point. I’m going to enjoy this!” Vere exclaimed.

Just outside, Austin was gearing up in the ring. The Altered with the strange looking fish head continued to spit out liquid, but he carefully kept an eye on each of them. Rather than just avoiding the strike outright, Austin moved in a zig zag shape, timing it so he could get closer to his opponent.

‘I learned a lot when fighting with Vere, how timing and watching the opponent works!’ Austin thought.

Before everything was done with just a feeling, but Austin did have good instincts, without paying attention he would know when to avoid attacks or when one was planning to do a big hit of sorts.

Now that he was thinking about the process as well, or thinking about what to do, things were becoming a lot clearer. One of the Altered had leapt toward Austin.

Seeing the timing, Austin used his strong legs to push him forward and he grabbed the strange creature right by the neck. The other squad leader had fired out his spit.

Using the body in Austin’s hand he moved it, blocking the attack and the body started to freeze over from the back, and soon Austin was right next to the strange faced Altered.

He smashed through the frozen body with his fist, breaking it into pieces and the fist continued on forward hitting the Altered in the face. His head swung to the side and wacked into the side of the cage before sliding down onto the floor.

“Now, there’s only one.” Austin said, looking at the last squad leader Altered that was in the ring.
