Reincarnated As A Lion In Another World-Chapter 70: Fur And Quills

The next day, Kael and Bibi III were making their way to the next cave that they were going to raid.

The wolves and lionesses surrounded them with most of them leading the way.

However, before they could get there, the ground trembled consistently. They reached the cave entrance, which was large and had claw marks around the edges.

The stench of blood filled the air, satisfying to some and discomforting to the rest. Especially when they were smelling the blood of their fellow wolves.

A deep guttural growl echoed from within the cave. There were no slow gradual footsteps, rather, it was the sound of something heavy running, and it was running fast.

A gigantic paw with long pointy claws shot out from the cave entrance.

One of the wolves who had been too close was unfortunate to be hit by this paw. His whole body was slapped down by this gigantic paw and split in two. The hind part of the wolf was squashed under the might of the paw into a bloody mess.

The rest of the wolf balanced on its front legs for a moment, not yet understanding the gravity of what was happening. With a plop sound, he fell to the side with his guts spilling out and his eyes staring at his comrades lifelessly.

The owner of the paw revealed herself, thick fluffy brown fur that covered her, long fangs that edged out of her mouth, and a body riddled with scars.

The beast released a roar that caused the ground to vibrate and the wolves to shiver.

She was absolutely massive, standing nearly three meters on all fours.

"A fucking bear!" Kael lamented, and it was a war bear from the looks of it.

Bibi III narrowed his eyes coldly, "Let’s get this over with and focus on the next enemy," He waved his hand, causing first to gather into a string of fine cold blades.

With another wave of his hand, the blades circled back before shooting off to the bear.

The ice blades broke into pieces upon contact with the tough hide of the bear. Instead of damaging the bear, the action only seemed to provoke her.

Enraged, she ran at the wolf army, plowing through them like a harvester of life.

Kael’s nose twitched, and he could smell two distinct scents coming from the cave, they were very similar to the bear’s.

’Oh,’ He said to himself before stylishly jumping away and avoiding a claw attack.

The battle had begun and the bear knew the people she should focus her attention on were the two humanoids here.

"Be careful, she is a mother," Kael briefly said, but he sent this message privately. He was sure that Bibi had already known about this from the scent yet refrained from saying anything.

"She’s a big target, all we need is to wear her down, no need to sacrifice your life by getting too close," Bibi shouted to the wolves.

The wolves seemed to have experience with dealing with bears. They would only attack when the bear’s hind side was facing them, the fire wolves and others who had long-range attacks stood at a distance to attack the wolf.

The bear stood on its hind legs, assuming a very intimidating height. Her muscles swelled as she roared, nearly bursting the eardrums of the weaker wolves.

Then she dropped down, focusing all her weight and strength on her front paws.

*BOOM*

The strength of a war bear could not be ignored, the stone ground exploded, sending pieces of stones flying everywhere.

A lot of wolves were hit by the flying stones, dying immediately as their bodies were pierced and turned into bloody sieves.

The original hundred-odd wolves that had come with Bibi had now been reduced to seventy-odd.

Bibi would occasionally throw ice blades at the bear, he wasn’t attacking with his full might and Kael noticed this.

Kael stayed behind, having a detached view of the battle scene and giving instructions to his lionesses to help them avoid the bear’s death strikes.

Katari wasn’t participating in this battle as she was nowhere to be found.

*SWISH!*

A faint yellow halo shone brightly for a brief second.

Kael snapped his head to the side as something brushed past his head at a terrifying speed.

"Hmm," Kael reached up to run his fingers over his cheeks. He brought his fingers up to his eye level to see dark red blood staining them.

He looked behind him to see a dark grey metal spike, lodged firmly into the ground. Kael frowned harder and noticed that the spike was still vibrating.

That yellow halo that sometimes flashed on Olivia’s body, appeared on him again at this moment.

His hand shot up fast to catch another metal spike just before it pierced through his head.

Kael’s palm felt numb for a few milliseconds. He shifted his gaze to where the spike came from, not seeing anything at first.

Then the second hand moved fast to stop another metal spike aimed at his abdomen.

This time, he could clearly see where the spike came from.

A large porcupine the size of a normal wolf sat comfortably in between a couple of rocks. The sharp metal quills on its back quivered like arrows about to be released.

The porcupine’s eyes widened as it saw Kael consecutively evade all three of its shots.

One of two quills on its back bent forward, aiming its shiny tip at Kael, and then it fired.

Kael, as if waiting for the moment after release, jumped. In one leap, he reached a height of close to fifty meters, effectively dodging the metal quill.

Kael’s cold eyes filled with killing intent were locked on the porcupine. As his body reached its climax in the air, just before he began to fall back to the ground, flames and lightning began to coat his form.

With the powerful jet flames as a driving force, Kael shot down like a meteor.

Frightened, the porcupine cartoonishly stumbled out of the way. It thought of aiming its quills at the incoming sure-death attack but common sense told it that both sides would come out with injuries

*BOOM!*

The human-shaped flaming meteor struck the ground, causing an explosion forming a crater, and sending large pieces of stones flying out.

Not just stones, but arcs of purple electricity struck out of the briefly formed crater.

The porcupine, with its metal quills, was like a white cloth in the dark. The electric arcs swiftly dug into his body through the metal quills.

Then there was the searing heat that came after. From this attack alone, one could tell that Kael wasn’t in his usual mood. The overreaching flames seemed to want to express the wrath that couldn’t be shown on his face.

The sudden explosion attracted the attention of the wolves and lionesses. Bibi looked at this with a calm expression.

"Everyone, focus on the bear, Kael would handle the other one." He commanded the wolves.

He wasn’t as focused on the bear fight as before, dividing his attention to observe Kael and the porcupine.

The lionesses were somewhat confused, but they returned to focus on the bear after receiving a command from Kael.

The flames died down to reveal not a humanoid, but a majestic golden lion.

His full mane swished magnificently and his size spoke of power. Kael boldly stepped out of the crater, his lion face masked by an animalistic expression.

Kael lunged straight at the porcupine, not allowing it any chance to react. The porcupine in return ran away, not from fear but to create distance between him and Kael.

Metal quills were shot rapidly at Kael and he managed to dodge some quills.

The porcupine jumped out of the way just as Kael pounced at where he was and broke the ground into pieces. The porcupine turned in the air, aiming its metal quills downward.

A rain of metal spikes descended down to Kael, seeking to turn him into a lin cushion.

When the porcupine landed it was to saw to its dismay that all the metal quills had stopped above Kael, losing all their kinetic energy. They seemed to have been stopped by the same force that the porcupine used.

Kael brushed out of the curtain of metal quills, his hind legs exploding with strength to lush him faster than before.

He caught up to the porcupine before it could react and a large paw, adorned with golden metal claws and surrounded with orange flames slammed down on the porcupine’s head.

The porcupine turned its head to the side instinctively, mitigating the force it received.

Still, its head was smashed into the ground and its senses were disoriented.

Luckily for the porcupine, his instinctive reaction caused Kael to land his paw on the neck which was full of metal spikes.

Kael let out a painful roar, two metal quills were currently pierced through his paw and they hurt a lot.

The porcupine broke its head out of the ground, if not for its strong body and metal skeleton, it would have died from that hit.

"Bibi, you idiot, help me out!" The porcupine shouted telepathically to his supposed ally.

Bibi, who had been observing the fight from the corner of his eyes, suddenly made a move.

His arms waved swiftly, like a furious fairy. From his arms, a cold air spread.

The surroundings swiftly changed from a warm atmosphere to a very cold one.

Snow began to fall from nowhere and the floor was covered in frost. Bibi III had transformed the environment to suit his advantage.

This transformation affected both friends and foes, but the intention was clear as day to Kael.
