The red portal light illuminated on Danny panting heavily, behind and around him were numerous dead hybrid monsters with their forms unnatural, limbs bent in the way no creature should move.
"What the hell are these creatures?" he questioned. He looked around and five monsters surrounded him in a synchronised pincer. A massive brute of a monster stood directly in front of him. Its chest heaving, acidic drool dripping from its jagged mouth. Its eyes glowed a sickly green. Unlike the others, it didn't charge blindly but watched and waited.
Danny's gaze didn't shift, but his irises shifted from blue to red. Fur burst in patches across his arms and shoulders. His nails elongated into claws and his ears sharpened. The five beasts lunged towards him.
Danny moved through the first beast like a blur with his claws swung.
[Wolf form:partial sync-37%]
The first monster hybrid’s throat split open beneath his claws, blood sprayed across Danny's face before the body hit the ground. Danny was already moving. The second came jumping like a savage monster from behind but Danny twisted, his jaws and his fangs snapping down on the arm of the monsters.
Bone shattered between his fangs. With a savage yank, he tore it free, leaving the creature shrieking in the dirt roaring in pain. He smashed its skull to the ground.
The third and fourth slammed into him at once, but Danny dropped low, rolling beneath their strikes. His claws lashed upward in a brutal arc, slicing through their bellies. Entrails spilled. The stench of blood filled the night.
Only one remained.
Danny hesitated—just for a breath.
The vampire Wolf, lunged at him
Danny’s vision flickered—his System screen glowed across his face.
[Objective: Eliminate Target Vampire wolf.]
[Reward: Evolution to Gamma Rank.]
The vampire Wolf snapped its head toward him. Its glowing red eyes burned with hunger. With a chilling snarl, it lunged at Danny with its claws swung at him.
Danny ducked at the last second, with its claws swinging upwards. Danny claws swing, flashing across the beast’s arm. Blood sprayed as the monster howled, stumbling back.
But the wolf was far from done.
The vampire Wolf’s massive claw swung down like a hammer. Danny ducked, rolling to the side, sparks flying as the claws scraped the ground with power. The floor cracked and tore.
Danny leapt upward, spinning through the air with his claws slashed at its face, cutting deep into one glowing eye of the full beast.
The beast roared, blinded, thrashing violently. It swung again, this time catching Danny mid-spin, slamming him against the hospital entrance pillar with bone-breaking force.
“Arghhh!” Danny cried, his ribs aching.
Before he could recover, the beast hurled him to the ground. Dust rose.
Danny coughed, blood dripping from his lip. His claws shook. His partial white wolf form flickered in the red light, his body threatening to give up. Danny pulled the arms of the beast then thrust both claws upward into its skull, piercing through the bone into its brain.
The vampire Wolf roared,
The System’s cold voice rang in his head.
[Warning: Health 72%.]
[Advisory: Wolf Instinct Mode – Engage.]
Danny’s vision sharpened. The world slowed. He could hear the beast’s heartbeat. The ground vibrated beneath its steps. Danny manages to escape his grasp. He poses for an attack.
“…wolf Instinct mode…? Fine! Let’s finish this!” his eyes narrowed.
The black vampire Wolf roared and charged forward.
[Dash skill activated]
Danny dashed forward into the air at full speed, As he moved. Danny System flashed before his eyes.
[ Borrowed Gamma Strength- 30 second]
[Mana drained by 70%]
[ Pain tolerance- Increase to 40% ]
Danny roared as his body transformed into a full massive giant white wolf.
and the beast roared like a giant goliath with his claws like a hammer swung in the air.
Boom
The beast swiped horizontally—Danny vaulted over its arm, twisting midair.
“NOW!”
He raked his fanged teeth across its throat with power. Blood gushed and the head detached from its body and the carcass of the beast dropped on the floor.
Danny's 30 sec transformation ended. Danny returns to his partial transformation.

A translucent system screen flashes before his vision.

[Inventory- recovery portions.]
[Reward: You have a Recovery potion]
A recovery bottle appeared in his hand. Danny moved with jolts of pain into the medical complex in a hurry while drinking the portion
A few minutes later.
Two humanoid beings in red hooded modern cloak walked out from a portal by the side of the medical hospital looking at the dead beast. They speak into their comms.
" Affirmative sir. All experimental wolves are dead "
Adam Barry walked out of the portal . He examined the monsters and the vampire wolf. " This was done by another wolf you say from the medical complex " the two hooded being moved at great speed and bow before him.
"Yes, sir."
"Did you get any CCTV footage?" he speaks to his comms. A girl with dark hair and dark blue eyes , and large Harry Potter glasses, inside a van filled with computers. She typed the keyboard rapidly and punched in the enter button, and a blurry picture appeared of Danny's full transformation and partial transformation, and him walking out with his face hidden in his hood. She replied to the comm, " It appears to be a young man who can shift into a full white wolf."
" What? That's rare. A white wolf. I have never heard of it" Adams' phone blinked.
"Have sent you pictures, " Adam clicked it. A blurry picture in the dark. He could make out Danny's white hair and red eyes, but the rest was blurry.
" Suzuka! This face looks familiar. Like the new guy rocking on tv. What's his name again? Danny Kael. So this little rat is one trying to put dirt into my plan just like his mother" Adam looked at the medical complex. " With Anna's abilities gone and the chaos in and out of the city. This was the perfect moment to go in and kill Rachel kael. However this new development of a rare white wolf might just be the key to solve the genetic hybrid rejection process. Rachael has played me dirty. If I go in with my hybrid. I don't know how many of her monster corps are in there and may risk blowing up my cover. Tsk" He bites his fingers chewing on it angrily.
"If I could just take out Rachel and assume the position of the monster corps. Her genetic codes used to create hybrid monsters would have been in my reach and my plan to kill Consul General Cunt Sinclair and his Alpha link so I can rise to become an Alpha of all wolf would have been possible . "
" Sir, you mean your father?" Suzuka commented.
"Don't mention that before me." His face transforms to an angry snake wolf.
" Suzuka, your sharp-witted brain will get you into trouble one of these days. You tell me, Suzuka, how can a father team up with a werewolf to kill his own family? That is not a father but a monster. I have become a devil and partnered with the demon lord of Envy to kill a monster and eliminate all werewolves globally. As Rachel Kael rightly said. It takes a devil to kill a monster. "
" I just ran a background check on Danny, sir."
"There is little information known about him since he has been missing for a long while. The info here is registered for the battle Royale, and he has yet to pass the second phase, which will begin by morning ."
"Good work, Suzuka. I have a certain instructor, Leonardo, who could be of help tomorrow. Change of plans. I have a new idea. It appears a new species for my vampire Zombie experiment has appeared. We will watch Danny kael then kidnap him. After my experimentation with him. I will use him as bait to lure racheal Kael. You two" the humanoid hooded beings bowed to him.
"Get ready for a hunt. "Vampire fangs grew out of their mouths and they vanished into thin air and Adam walked into the portal, and it closed.
Danny walked into the medical room. Machines beeped softly in rhythm with Rachel Kael’s and Danny's mother's steady heartbeat. She lay asleep beneath thin sheets, her face pale but peaceful.
Danny dragged a chair close to her bed and sat down, his hand resting gently on hers. He let his shoulders loosen. His mother was alive; that was enough.
Tears trace the delicate path of his cheek as he thinks of his father. His lab coat transformed into a demon lord. The fact that he was one of the public enemies the world would have to face and defeat was a huge blow to him.
Danny didn’t move, occupied with diverse thoughts. He just sat there, listening to his mother's breath, guarding her like a sentinel.
It's been a few hours or a day since the Maze Labyrinth of Greed appeared in Augmented Reality. The sky remains dark with a blood moon. Humanity could only tell when it was morning through the clock and a specific hologram light turned on.
The war against the undead continues.
So far, there have been so many casualties, and Hunters either died or never returned. Some Hunters said the maze dungeon’s gatekeeper, known as the three-headed Ceberus, was too strong.
Humanity discovered that zombies, like a game character, respawn later after they had been shot. Only beheading was the solution, which makes things extremely difficult.
Humanity is on the losing end, losing more men and more bullets, spending more in just a few hours , and we finally understood that the first wave, which was turning humanity into zombies, had occurred. This was to drain humanity into despair and hopelessness; however, humanity will not give up.
Rumours circulated that Emperor Tharsis ordered the 3rd most powerful ranking S hunter Anna Sinclair, the one he told the consul general, Cunt Sinclair, to be his 4th wife to consolidate his power on the throne, but Anna declined his marriage proposals and he hasn't given up, and to punish her for such rebellion.
He ordered her father to send Anna to go out and use her voice to hunt zombies until the tables turned.
Anna's punishment was now the only hope humanity had to make the beast sleep, and the hunters would slay it and then invade the dungeon labyrinth to clear it to shift back the augmented virtual reality back to our world to reset this cursed game… until the next one begins.
Cunt had no choice because he didn't want to lose his position. He had tried his best to convince Anna and every guy who had become too friendly or shown interest to date Anna had been mysteriously killed or gone missing.
Cunt believes this was the work of Emperor Tharisis. However, the current issue is. Anna Sinclair has been declared missing since the declaration was made by apollyon. This is a big problem for every sector including the Emperor, because she is humanity's strongest defense, which prevents the flying monsters and zombies from coming close to the wall in all sectors.
Now that she is gone, humanity is at great risk, although Tharsis is the offensive powerhouse of humanity. There is so much one man can do.
Anna's disappearance topped the news chat and humanity stopped the gossip about me as their attention was tainted in fear for Anna.
Digital adverts of Anna flash everywhere and military scouts and hunters have been on the search as a state of emergency was declared
Every house and place, drones and robot police scan every look and cranny in Sector 47. Meanwhile, Cadets had been ordered to participate in the 2nd phase and prepare for the Virtual reality game so that more recruits can be drafted into the fighting force.
This is where I find things strange. The hologram video that appeared on my phone is not the same video circulating around the city. The video of Anna tied to a chair came with the name Dark Samurai of the battle royale on my device. It's like the enemy is specific about me.
"Who was Dark Samurai? Where is he from? Why is he doing this to me? What is this, some kind of personal attack? The question rocked my head cos I was about to lose my mind.
Only one clue I have. His name and the third phase of virtual reality. That's where the bloody mother of*ucker will show himself.
......
Danny kissed his mother on the head. Zipped up his combat hooded jacket and walked out.
" Today is the second phase. I'd better get ready" he check his watch
Danny stretched his body. Then his wolf claws and fur transformation complete. He jumped from the window of the medical complex on the next building like spider man and headed to the combat area.
Danny was being watched as he leapt from building to building.
"Target on the move." A voice announced. At the same time, Rachel kael door swing open. A red person dressed in a red hooded cloak covering his face stood beside Racheal. He unsheathe the sword and lifted high above Rachel's chest. The neon light flashes red on the sword tips.
