After realizing something was wrong, Kaka immediately leapt into Aiven's shadow.
Swish——!
Wearing a black wizard's robe and a golden mask, Aiven's feet crackled with electricity, and with a step, he chased after the vibrant red figure.
However, after running just a few steps in a gray, misty fog, he couldn't help but slow down.
Because right in front of him, at the end of the crooked, weed-covered narrow path in the forest, emerged not one figure but two.
A small figure in a red hooded cloak walked briskly ahead, while a lone wolf, its shoulder height nearly that of an adult and covered in gray-black fur, silently followed behind. Judging by its size, it was clearly a powerful demonized creature.
The lone wolf's pair of eerie green eyes stared fiercely at the silhouette ahead, its long wolfish muzzle split open, and thick drool dripped down its sharp white fangs drop by drop.
A low growling sound emanated from its throat, a signal that it was about to attack.
"Hungry! Eat!"
