Reincarnated As A Lion In Another World-Chapter 71: Cold

A creeping cold penetrated Kael’s body, tingling his spine and causing him to involuntarily shiver.

A thin layer of snow covered the ground, like a holy white carpet, the stains of the world absent from it.

As Kael’s breath shot out from his flared nostrils in the form of white steam, his aura began to build up.

Using his mouth, he pulled the two metal quills out of his paw, letting the blood drip down and stain the pristine white snow.

He looked down to see ice slowly climbing up his limbs. It looked like this was merely a wide area of effect move but it was principally focused on Kael.

He could feel his joints aching and his limbs felt numb. "If it has come to this, why not just tear away all pretense," Kael said.

His words were not privately delivered but echoed in the minds of all present, causing a lot of confusion. Who was he talking to?

Bibi IV, Bibi III’s son, was looking at all of this with a cold disposition. As a war wolf, he was mostly effective in close combat, and fighting the war bear up close was nothing short of suicide.

He used this as an excuse to observe the battlefield from afar, looking for an opportunity to act.

Despite Kael’s snarl, there was a bit of excitement in his eyes as he registered his enemies. On one side was the porcupine, and on the other side was Bibi III.

Since he became a tier 3 existence, he had never had the chance to test out just how powerful he had become. Nothing had pushed him to the limits yet.

His golden fangs bared, long and threatening. His mane stood on end and his body began to swell. His muscles expanded and compacted, and his bones elongated too.

His claws grew out longer and jagged and two long fangs shot down from his upper jaw.

Intricate magic runes lit up on different parts of his body. From his head to his tail, there were magic runes. But compared to N’bayé’s, his runes were scanty and not as complex.

At the same time, electricity filled every cell in his body, enhancing his reaction time and explosiveness by multiple factors.

Two horns grew out of his head, green and golden lines intertwined on them. At the end of his tail, where a tuft of hair should be, was a bright orange flame that matched the ones on his paws.

The snow beneath his feet melted fast, like demons that came in contact with holy water.

Kael lowered his body, his belly almost touching the cold stone ground. His golden eyes mixed with a fortune yellow focused on the porcupine.

The porcupine had his metal quills aimed at Kael, but compared to his enemy, his aura was lacking. Even the power of frost that was barraging Kael’s body seemed to be ineffective.

*SWOOSH!*

The porcupine released three metal spikes fast. Kael didn’t dodge, allowing the three spikes to easily pierce through his body.

The porcupine frowned, not thinking this would be so easy.

Kael didn’t act like he had just been pierced by three one-meter-long spikes, instead, his body began to fade, slowly becoming transparent like a stone statue turning to dust in the wind.

"Illusion!" The porcupine realized quickly, but it was too late.

*BAM!*

Space rippled as a massive paw appeared out of thin air and hit the porcupine square in the face.

The porcupine was sent flying, involuntarily releasing a multitude of quills as he momentarily lost his sense of self.

Before he landed, another hit landed on his head, coming from below like an uppercut slap.

Like a rag doll, the porcupine backflipped in the air multiple times before crashing to the side of the mountain. When the porcupine came to his senses, he noticed that he now had his unprotected belly exposed.

Before he could right himself, multiple thick vines burst out of the mountainside behind him and wrapped around his limbs and abdomen, binding him to remain in his backside.

Now, the porcupine was scared, "BIBI!" He cried for help.

Kael showed himself at this point, running straight at the porcupine. The ground beneath him cracked from the weight and force behind his moves. He raised his golden claws, ready to end this pesky porcupine.

Forget the metal skeleton, if this claw descended with the forceful intent it was clearly showing, it would be fatal.

Bibi frowned as he looked at this. He completely ignored the bear that was rampaging near her cave entrance and put all his attention on Kael.

His white tail swished slightly. He made a clawing motion with his hand to the ground and multiple ice spikes, as thick as a man’s waist shot out of the ground, all heading to Kael.

However, as if they had all hit an invisible barrier, they broke apart before they hit the golden lion.

This was still enough to push Kael away from the porcupine before his claws tore through his chest.

Bibi III’s action instantly spread confusion among the wolves who saw this. Even the bear was stumped, weren’t these two on the same side?

For a brief moment, no side attacked each other, although they remained alert.

Bibi III, with a cold gaze that he had never shown before, began to walk to Kael and the porcupine.

His claws elongated and white fur began to grow out of his skin. The two ears on top of his head expanded and his face began to morph into a wolf-like visage.

He dropped down on all fours, creating a heavy thudding sound. Even then, his new form wasn’t so short.

Bibi III, now a white wolf nearly six feet in height, strolled elegantly to the two beasts.

The cold wind picked up as a small-scale snowstorm started brewing with Bibi III at the center. His cold blue eyes revealed a hint of annoyance.

"I really underestimated you," Bibi said, his voice carrying a trace of frustration.

Three head-sized snowflakes formed around him, spinning at a high velocity with edges as sharp as a newly polished sword.

Kael vigilantly looked at Bibi, his vines still tightening themselves around the porcupine whose belly was already freezing from the cold.

"What did you hope to achieve with this? You need me to conquer the mountain, you need me to annex the other wolf clans, you need me, Bibi." Kael said.

"Is that what you think?" Bibi III asked, the temperature dropping lower as time passed, "I refuse to believe you’re that stupid.

All I needed from you was a stronghold on the mountain, from which we could launch a campaign to conquer it all.

Why should I annex the wolf clans when they would willingly agree to join forces with me?

Why would I work with a lion to fight against my kind?"

The three spinning at maximum velocity snowflakes above his head shot straight for Kael’s head.

Kael turned his head to the side as the snowflakes pierced through his magic barrier and struck his thick mane.

Feeling the slight pain coming from his neck, Kael reassessed Bibi III’s threat level, this wolf could not leave this place alive. He had to make sure of that.

Without saying anything, Kael lunged at the approaching Wolf with flames covering his body. Bibi also did the same, sprinting towards the golden lion.

A thick layer of ice covered his body, making him seem more imposing than he already was.

The two large beasts collided, sending a small tremor through the ground. Frost and flames intertwined as the ground cracked and stones were sent flying.

Meanwhile, as the two-tier 3 beasts were battling it out, another devious play was afoot.

The bear, seeing the confusion in the wolves eyes, didn’t attack, instead, it stayed at the cave entrance, blocking all from entering.

Bibi IV, seeing an opportunity, immediately pounced on his sister, Bibi V.

The sudden attack was too surprising, there was no way to defend against it. Bibi IV’s storming jaws clenched around his sister’s neck viciously.

"What are you doing!" The green wolf shouted as he ran to stop this.

He slammed his shoulder into Bibi IV’s side but he only pushed the larger wolf slightly.

Ice crept up Bibi IV’s mouth as his sister tried to defend herself. Other wolves had jumped on Bibi IV’s body, biting and clawing at him to stop, but this only made him bite harder.

If he was in charge he could kill anyone and they won’t stop him. They dared to favor his sister over him because of his father, they would pay. With these thoughts in his mind, he relished the taste of his sister’s blood.

All the weight of the wolves didn’t stop him from finally snapping her neck, and he enjoyed every moment of it.

"NOOOO!" The green wolf shouted frantically. "You unfilial son!" Enraged, the green wolf was ready to attack.

But at this time, an unlikely ally came to the aid of Bibi IV.

The green wolf suddenly paused, feeling strange and lost. Space rippled as a red line appeared around the neck of the green wolf.

He wanted to turn his head to look at his companions but his head just fell to the ground. His eyes stared lifelessly as his body collapsed to the ground.

This sudden turn of events caused even more confusion.

One of the fire wolves began to howl. Before much sound could escape his mouth, Diane rushed him and ripped out his throat.

The fire wolf choked on his own blood as he stared at the muscular lioness who now had his blood decorating her mouth.

The other wolves looked around to see that they were surrounded by Kael’s lionesses who looked at them with malicious intent. For this, Bibi IV was genuinely grateful.

He let his sister’s body drop to the floor, licking the blood staining his mouth. The ordinary wolves were stupefied by what was happening.

Unfortunately, despite how fast Diane had been, that brief noise reached Bibi’s very sensitive ears.

As Bibi’s blue eyes shifted in the midst of the fight to see the body of a white wolf with blood on her neck area, something changed.

Kael had never felt such a level of coldness until that very moment.
