Reincarnated As A Lion In Another World-Chapter 105: Testosterone And Adrenaline

Like a flood of grey, the wolves ran up the sides of the mountain, jumping from one flat surface to the other.

Kael and Nalii followed from the rear at a slow pace while Eidel and Commander Bibi led from the front.

*BOOM!*

The sound of something heavy hitting the ground echoed out and the ground trembled slightly.

Kael looked back to see a cloud of dust covering the area where N’bayé’s cave was. He squinted his eyes as his vision made out the faint shadow that was in the center of the dust cloud.

Two large white wings flapped heavily, spreading the dust away and allowing Kael to see the person there.

"He fell for it, that’s good." Kael said as his paws thumped heavily on the ground, "He probably thinks Katari would be unfamiliar with her new evolved body which would give him an advantage.

Katari doesn’t need to win, she just needs to prevent him from getting back to the mountain peak."

Nalii also looked back to see the giant bird but she immediately turned her head away, not bothered. Katari was the last person she was worried about at this moment.

"What if that Darius guy reaches tier 4 before we reach the top?" Nalii asked. Her power was growing and the only reason she hadn’t burst out yet was her firm control of her anxiety.

To her words, Kael responded by shaking his head, causing his mane to swish around. Nalii was able to see two red-capped mushrooms tied to his golden locks.

Her green eyes locked on those mushrooms and she understood where that spicy smell had been coming from. She could finally sense the faint power coming from it.

For some reason, she couldn’t sense it previously when it was hidden under Kael’s mane.

"What is that? I feel a very aggressive vibe from its structure." She asked.

"I don’t know, I first saw it through the perspective of an observation rune. I saw how it was able to make an ordinary rabbit gain strength that didn’t match its tier.

The rabbit suffered and I never got to check if the after-effects were permanent.

Unfortunately, I have not had the chance to experiment as N’bayé only found these early yesterday morning." Kael said with a determined glint in his eyes.

"Son, that is very dangerous!" Nii raised her voice as she stiffened her limbs and halted her steps.

Kael stopped moving and looked back at her, frowning, "Don’t worry, it’s only a trump card. I won’t use it if it’s not necessary."

Kael was about to turn back so he could catch up with the army before they met their first foe.

"KAEL!" Nalii shouted, stomping her left front paw on the ground so hard that it cracked.

Kael frowned, confused at the way Nalii was suddenly behaving, "What’s wrong?"

"Is this necessary?" Nalii asked, reluctance in her eyes.

"What do you mean?" Kael was even more confused.

"You’re risking your life for what? A mountain? You’re already a king, what else could you want that you have to risk your life to get it?" Nalii asked, her tone of pleading.

Kael’s expression relaxed, "Now is not the right time to be having this conversation, Mother. I have prepared for too long for this day…"

"... Why can’t we go back and be like a normal lion pride? Must we be…like this?" Nalii pressed on. She could feel the berserk mixture within that mushroom.

"A normal lion pride?" Kael nearly choked as Jin’s face surfaced in his mind. He shivered.

He shook his head and gave his mother a scary look, "Mother, I know that you’re saying all this because of last-minute worries and the suddenness for you.

But if you mess this up, I won’t be kind."

And with that, Kael turned around and pursued after the army, reaching them in a few seconds.

Nalii gritted her teeth angrily. As a Vegetation Lioness or Veggie Lioness, it was in her nature to be passive and shy away from violence if it wasn’t necessary.

This trait became more enhanced now that she had become a tier 3 lioness. She was the only one who saw whatever was happening today as unnecessary.

Unfortunately, Nalii spoke for a few but not for all. Kael would follow through irrespective, Nalii had not seen what he had seen. She had not lived those memories like he had, so he didn’t expect her to understand.

With no choice, Nalii ran after her son with the sole intention of keeping him safe, her overprotective motherly instincts mysteriously coming back all of a sudden.

Eidel who ran at the front, leaving a paw trail of fire behind her, reached the first enemies.

Two gigantic lizards crawled out of the corners of large boulders, their long tongues slipping out of their mouth threateningly.

The two lizards were at least four meters long with a long and powerful tail each. Each had bright green scales with two black patterns on their backs.

Hey, both emitted an aura similar yet different from Nalii. Whereas Nalii’s aura was more flowery, the lizards reeked of toxicity and emitted a pungent smell.

"Venomous lizards." Commander Bibi said but he didn’t stop running, that would lower the morale of the army.

Thankfully, the fearless Eidel was in front of him and had no intention of stopping.

Like a bright yellow star to light up the dark atmosphere, Eidel burst out with her power, turning into a huge ball of flames that shot forward fast.

Eidel was ready the moment she awoke, she needed something to sink her burning claws into quickly and she had seen one.

*BOOM!*

The lizards had just come out of their corner and were getting ready to react to the incoming mass of wolves when a flaming lioness smashed into them without any prior convo.

One of the lizards jumped to the side hurriedly, escaping with a slight hot brush. Its companion was not so lucky though.

Eidel rushed the other lizard into the mountainside, breaking and melting all the rocks obstructing them until she forged a cave into the mountainside.

*SCREEEEECH!*

The sound of the lizard screeching reached the sharp ears of the wolves which only served to boost their morale.

Even Commander Bibi was so affected by this bold act of Eidel that he found himself suicidally rushing for the second lizard, his eyes glinting with the desire for a glorious battle.

The giant green lizard was having none of this as it turned around and sent Bibi flying with one swipe of its tail.

The sight of their commander flying through the air with a lost expression did not deter the wolves who were already upon the lizard though. The tail swipe just gave some wolves the opportunity to jump into the body of the lizard.

Ruda and Zabita were there, providing shocking attacks and sharp claw strikes as much as they could. Even then, one or two wolves were scratched by the poisonous claws or bitten.

Casualties had already begun to appear.

Commander Bibi was about to land hard on the ground when a mass of vines came up and caught him.

"There are more battles to be fought, it’s too early to die," He heard Kael’s voice as the massive golden body ran past him and continued up the mountainside.

Nalii ran past him too, but it was clear she was not the one who saved him, it was King Kael.

For some reason, Bibi IV felt his blood pumping and his eyes dilated.

*AWOOOOOO!*

He released a deep guttural howl as his body expanded and his muscles stretched.

The majority of the wolves who weren’t fighting instantly understood what that howl meant. Following Commander Bibi, they ran after Kael and Nalii with all their might, barking like rabid dogs that would bite anything their master frowned at.

Even they had fallen to the mysterious spirit of War.

There was no prior motivational speech, no briefing. Just testosterone and adrenaline flying around added with an enemy in sight.

Bibi and the rest of the wolves followed after their king, going after the next enemy.

Meanwhile, Kael was thinking of how he could preserve his strength until he reached the top of the mountain.

As they ran up the mountain, they encountered their next foe.

Far above them, Kael and the rest could make out the faint figure of a colossal-sized mountain goat, looking down at them calmly.

Its hooves held firmly to the rocks, and its large curved horns released an earthly glow.

"I’ll take this one," Nalii said as she licked up speed and rushed forward to confront the large mountain goat.

Seeing his challenger, the mountain goat snorted in disdain. He jumped down, leaping from rock to rock with his two curved horns pointed at Nalii.

Nalii matched his intent, aiming her large antlers at the mountain goat.

*BOOM!*

With a flash of yellow and green light, the two figures collided and another booming sound echoed across the mountain.
