Chapter 44 Vengeful Wolves
It was a quiet night. Only the bright stars in the sky sparkled and illuminated Adam's room. He was lying on his bed, but his posture tonight was somewhat unusual.
"Um..." Adam felt strange.
His head was pressed against Amarantha's thin nightgown, and more specifically, against her breasts. Adam could feel the warmth and tenderness of her hills in full force, and given the fragrant scent, his head was slightly dizzy.
From the day they became allies with Amarantha, she kept the distance between them short, and their bodies frequently touched. There was nothing naughty about it; it was more of a casual embrace, that's all.
Amarantha had slept in his arms since that day, and her expression looked so relaxed and defenseless that Adam sometimes wondered why she trusted him so much. He didn't mind, however, as he enjoyed it.
Of course, sex, on the other hand, is much better. However, when you are embraced with care and feel warmth, it is a different feeling. Adam felt a strange sense of déjà vu, and his heart was filled with tender emotions and sad ones.
This fluctuating mood made Adam wonder. It seemed to him that his heart was breaking apart, and a strong sense of loneliness filled his soul. In those moments when Adam seemed to see the light and finally come to understand, everything disappeared, as if he were being mocked.
"I don't understand anything." Adam sighed and felt tired. "It doesn't matter, though. I need to get some sleep now, and then start executing the plan tomorrow."
Adam closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep. For some unknown reason, he slept very well tonight.

The next morning.
Adam went into the room where Elyra was temporarily staying, but as he entered, he saw no nymph, only a single envelope with a letter in it.
"Hmm, apparently her guards were able to pick it up." Adam raised an eyebrow and took the envelope in his hand.
There was a letter from Elyra, written in a hurry. Adam chuckled when he saw more than ten apologies in the first paragraph. Involuntarily, his lips stretched into a gentle smile, and he could even imagine her sweet expression, full of panic and sloppiness.
"Dear Adam, my guards have found my location, and now I am forced to return to the kingdom. I'm sorry I didn't warn you, but it was very sudden. As agreed, I will inform my mother of your candidacy.
Even though we had only known each other for a few days, I realized that you were a good man. Even though you're horny...
I hope that the next time we meet, we can get to know each other better. I look forward to seeing you again.
With love,
Elyra."
The letter was written in elegant and beautiful handwriting, but Adam was able to see a few mistakes that were made due to haste and embarrassment. The letter itself reeked of spring roses, and there was a trace of lipstick at the end after her name.
Adam was surprised by such boldness from such a shy and innocent girl like Elyra. In this world, leaving a trace of lipstick at the end of a letter is like showing her readiness for a relationship.
If you translate it into words, it would be, "I'm ready for marriage. Adam smiled and felt warm inside.
"That girl is so cheeky..." He shook his head and packed the letter in an envelope, then sent it to his inventory. "Maybe we should get her some kind of present if this works out."
Adam gave it some serious thought as he left the room.
***
Deep Night. Tonight Adam was not lying on a bed with a beautiful elf but was on a hunt. He wasn't dreaming because he felt hungry, and he just decided to hunt the nearest monsters.
As Adam stepped behind the foundations of the city walls, he saw a pack of wolves. They were strong and at the "F+" rank, which was a headache for the guards. Although they were very easy to kill, there were many problematic issues because of their pedigree.
These wolves are called "Vengeful wolves," who have a strange superpower and can pass on their memories through their bloodline to each of their kin. Mostly, it's information about the terrain, survival basics, and experiences.
But the scariest part is that before he dies at the hands of the traveler, the Vengeful Wolf sends information about his killer through the bloodline. Thus, the traveler will be pursued until he becomes another snack for the Vengeful Wolves.
There was once a case where the mayor of an elven city killed a Vengeful Wolf cub, and the next day his city was destroyed along with its inhabitants. It is said that five thousand wolves attacked the city, and even strong practitioners at "A" rank could not resist.
As long as the practitioner is not at the "S" rank, he cannot resist "amount" even if he is "quality".
Adam waved his hand, and a large fireball appeared in front of him, flying through the air. The temperature around the fireball reached over 500 degrees Celsius, and the ball got hotter and hotter.
The vengeful Wolves immediately noticed the danger and began to run away. Their speed was breathtakingly fast, and in ten seconds they'd covered a hundred yards. Adam raised his eyebrows and simply waved.
F-f-f-f!
The fireball flashed with a bright orange light and suddenly disappeared. Only an orange trail could be seen in the air, and only the scorched grass showed that the fireball had not disappeared.
Two seconds later, the fireball reached the pack of Vengeful Wolves, who had time to scatter in two directions to avoid the fireball. However...
Boom!
There was a loud sound, and the aftershock of the risk reached even Adam. If not for the fact that he had protected himself with a magical shield, all of his clothes would have been burned along with his skin. He frowned and grimaced, then closed his eyes.
The intense heat made his eyes hurt, and the bright flash after the explosion was too bright and blinded Adam for a second.
·ƈθm Boom! Boom! Boom!
The explosions, however, did not stop. Adam could hear and even feel the surge of magical energy that made his magical shield tremble. He smiled, feeling satisfied and proud.
Demons are one of the best races for magic. Most demons, though they prefer physical strength to magical strength, can use innate spells at a critical moment.
That's why none of the Demon Hunters dare to go into battle against demons above the Middle Demon level, as it would be a trivial desire to die.
Five minutes later, the shivers from the explosions and the loud noise were gone. Although it was still hot, Adam could already open his eyes. He was shocked to see what had become of the wolves.
"Oh..." Adam sighed, feeling a headache.
There weren't even any corpses left of the wolves; everything was scorched along with the grass. More than ten craters appeared on the ground, reeking of heat. Adam narrowed his eyes, and suddenly, with a pop, two demonic wings rose from his back.
He swung them up and overcame ten meters in the blink of an eye. Another pack of Vengeful Wolves appeared in his eyes. The average rank of this pack was "F" so Adam was confident of his victory.
"Tumbling with women in bed is, of course, wonderful. But sometimes you have to practice." Adam smiled and activated the Grip of Hell.
Out of the darkness suddenly appeared fiery red hands that squeezed all the wolves into a tight grip. No matter how hard they tried, it was impossible to break free from that grip, and they could only watch helplessly as Adam approached.
"I have a little thought. It is said that magic stones can also be obtained from the bodies of monsters. They disappear after death, and the chance of getting them is almost zero." Adam sighed and snapped his fingers. "So why not give it a try?"
Suddenly his hands clenched, and the howl of the wolves, filled with pain and suffering, was so loud that several of the builders turned in that direction. The young elf with the black hair wiped away the sweat and looked south in surprise.
"Wolves? Is it a pack of Vengeful Wolves again?"
Meanwhile, Adam held a fingernail-sized magic stone in his hand. This magical stone was translucent and had a bluish hue. The magical energy in it was weak and insignificant.
Adam, however, had a different reaction. When he looked at the magic stone, his hunger became ten times stronger. It was as if his instincts were aroused, as if calling him to eat this magic stone.
"What is it?" Adam frowned.
