My Slayer System: Rise to Supremacy-Chapter 372: A theory!

The next morning was finally here and everybody had woken up excitedly for the expedition as they had quickly woken up early and packed up their tents and then did a quick headcount before they moved on.

When they were done, they continued marching in silence as each and every person were thinking about the clash the previous night between Jake and Rivock and how disastrous it would have been.

Before their minds moved again to how the expedition will be like today as the team couldn't help but feel a little bit anxious especially Gray.

'Crap! I can't believe I lost my system again. The first time, there was hope of it being restored but this time, there isn't as it has completely being wiped out of existence. So how am I supposed to fight? No system means I'm low on fighting power.

But good thing I honed my Qi skills all these years and even learnt to activate some of the system skills without the system. Funny thing is I tried to activate the skills without the system but I guess no system, means no record of any skills.' Gray thought with his hands clenched so tightly that his knuckles were turning white before he finally unclenched his hands.

The more they walked, the more the weather and atmosphere became much more colder as some of the teams were shaking and their teeth were even chattering loudly.

"Okay, this cold is slightly getting to me now." Jake said as he opened up his system tab to look for any skill that might help but there was none.

Meanwhile the others were feeling quite okay. As Rex just swirled his fiery Qi around his body keeping him warm while the others did something else that only them knew to keep themselves warm.

"That reminds me. The first war, what was it like? I mean, I know it was disastrous, but how did it feel like?" Jake asked.

"How did it feel like? It felt like the human race was going to go extinct any second." Bane replied.

"If we hadn't stepped up on time, it would have really gone extinct." Rex replied. "But thankfully it didn't and the humans were quick to accept us and our help."

"I heard tales." Jake said. "That you all came together to fight against a Beta werewolf after fighting separately for too long. Even Head General Humfree had to join in. Still, the werewolf wasn't defeated but chased away."

"What's your point?" Rivock asked. "Don't you get cocky all of a sudden because you managed to kill a Beta werewolf by yourself, and also chased another one when you were a student."

"I wasn't talking about that but thanks for reminding me that I'm better than you all." Jake chuckled.

"You!" Rivock wanted to move but he felt a tap on his shoulders stopping him.

"What were you driving at?" Bane asked.

"That, throughout the first war, you all didn't encounter the Alpha werewolf not even once?" Jake asked.

"No we didn't. The highest ranked werewolf we encountered was one of the Beta werewolves that attacked and even with that, it took all of us combined to send it away with injuries." Rex replied.

"And it didn't feel weird to you all? I mean, the foot soldiers were sent, the second in commands were sent, but the boss never came out." Jake said.

"It doesn't really matter." Rex shrugged. "It was a good thing he didn't come out otherwise we wouldn't be here anymore. For us to struggle against a Beta werewolf then, meant that when the Alpha struck then, we would have all perished."

"Exactly my point!" Jake said. "Think about it, if two guilds were to clash, the second in command was sent and he was a match for the leader of the other guild, that it had to take all the core members and even the leader to manage to send the other guild's second in command away, what do you think the leader of the opposing guild will do?"

"He will come down himself since he knows that the guild he went to war with was too weak for his second in command to draw best all of them at once." Bane replied.

"Exactly! So why didn't the Alpha come out when he knows that he is stronger than you all then? Why wait and let the humans recover and grow their strength? Why wait and let the big three that chased his second in command away with injuries to grow in strength? Doesn't it sounds fishy?" Jake asked.

"Now that I think about it, it does make sense. And I remember during the war, some werewolves were feasting on the fallen humans and not weaklings, but those strong enough to injure them." Rivock said.

"So now think, why did the Alpha let you all grow your powers? He knows that he can take you all out without breaking a sweat so he wants you all to grow powerful enough so when he feasts on you, his power will be boosted for something else." Jake said.

This theory hadn't popped into Jake's head all of a sudden, he had thought long and hard about this since when he battled against Blip. He always wondered what happened and why the Alpha didn't come down himself and finally, it was clicking in his head.

But it still was leaving him with some unanswered questions which was why he chose to bring it out now with the others especially Bane. Maybe something could be discovered.

"Which means that there's another threat greater than the werewolves that the Alpha is preparing for which is why he wants us to grow strong enough so he can feast on us and use the newfound strength for something." Bane said as he suddenly halted his steps with his widened in shock.

"How the hell did we not think about this?" Rex asked as he had also halted.

"Because you all are dense." Jake mumbled quietly.

"What happened? Is something wrong?" General Paul asked.

"No, let's con…" Bane stuttered as the atmosphere was now terribly cold that everybody were able to feel it including Rex who was slightly shivering.

"Something is wrong." Jake said as he activated his system and his legendary tier sword appeared in his hands.

"The beast, it's here." Rivock said and then a loud piercing shriek was heard coming from the fog that suddenly appeared in front of them.
