Becoming a Monster

"Alright, we'll try this again…don't let me down big guy."

Once again, the scene played out with Noah materializing a drop of a translucent drop of blood from his palm. As soon as the drop was formed and he was about to have Fenrir accept it, Fenrir beat him to it, using his giant tongue to cover Noah's entire hand and part of his forearm.

The action would've disgusted Noah if his arm wasn't being covered by his equipment since his entire arm would've been wet and sticky. However he had more pressing matters now that the ends were almost upon him. The blood pact has been forged and now he needed to give Fenrir a suitable skill that would give him as much of an edge as Arachne, and Noah just happened to have the next best skill in mind.

"I haven't used this skill as often, but I don't consider it my trump card for no good reason. Make me proud boy."

[Fenrir is now bonded through blood pact, skills requiring blood pact are now effective!]

[Fenrir's skill Lucan's Blessing has leveled up to level 1!-Through your blessing, your blood can remove harmful aliments more quickly than before. More harmful ailments will still require higher constitution and spirit!]

[Fenrir has gained the skill 'Killing Instinct' that is being shared by the host. During its evolution, Fenrir's transformation will be influenced by Killing instinct!]

"AAAWWWOOOO!"

There wasn't a change physically that occurred to him, but Noah could tell that Fenrir was different just based on his howl alone. His howl felt more oppressive than before, but that wasn't all. The predator-like pupils of Fenrir's eyes had changed color to the same purple as Noah. Yet the color was more intensified now that Fenrir immediately activated the skill.

Crack!

The ground cracked beneath Fenrir's feet as he stood on his hind legs, visible bulges could be seen flexing throughout his entire body. The new appearance made him appear as if he was on some kind of drug. And to put the icing on the cake, his pupils began to dilate to the point where the purple was barely visible, the purple halo-like glow made the darkness that were his eyes that much more frightening.

"Ggrrr!"

The skill literally made Fenrir into a ferocious beast. Noah anticipated a bloodbath and quickly jumped back when the ants were just inches away from them. However he learned that there wasn't a need for him to move away at all.

Four ants approached first and used their pincers to try to bite through Fenrir's legs. When the pincers connected with his fur they became frozen in place, but subtly you could see Fenrir's body being lifted. The ants couldn't penetrate his body at all, but with their increased size, it wasn't impossible for them to lift the beast off its feet even when he resisted.

But Fenrir wasn't going to stand there, not when its only instinct was to kill. His claws fully extended and he angled both of his paws down into the ants heads so that his claws would piece into them. Instead of piercing through their heads, it was better to say that he shredded them like paper.

The four ants were quickly dealt with, Fenrir's claws not only tore through their heads but since his paws naturally curved, he literally ripped theirs off while splitting them at the same time. This couldn't have been accomplished if his paws weren't so huge.

It seemed that when Fenrir was under the effects of the skill, he relied on his 'weapons' instead of just brute strength. The next wave of ants came, and he resorted back to swiping at the creatures like he habitually did before, but this time he swung with his claws still fully extended with the intentions of tearing through them.

Everything began to happen faster than most could comprehend what was happening. One moment there were ants approaching Fenrir and then the next they were flying away with less of their body then what they had before. And the moment when he began to move to wreak havoc through their ranks, the scene became more chaotic. Noah himself was having a hard time to keep up with Fenrir when he considered Fenrir to be more of a frontline attacker.

'No no no….' Noah rubbed his eyes in disbelief when he witnessed what he was seeing. The Fenrir he was seeing now was already more dangerous than the awakened zombie they fought previously. He just couldn't believe that just the skill he gave him could make him so powerful, but then he remembered the notification after forming the pact.

'That's right! His stats are being upgraded by my skills and the Killing instinct at the same time! Just what are his stats now?' Noah thought before hurrying to check in the midst of the battle. There was no way for him not to check when he couldn't stay sane if he didn't know how strong he just made his beast that he was treating as a silly dog all this time.

Attributes

Strength:93->(97)[146] (the 93 is from the 5 attributes from leveling up. I fixed my past mistake)

Agility:50->75[113]

Constitution:70->105[158]

Stamina:37[56]

Magic:5

Spirit:42

"….." Noah didn't know what to say at first after seeing the stat increased, but when he watched Fenrir dominating over the little big ants, his heart was growing excited and he couldn't help but smile widely from the scene.

"I created my own little boss monster~!" He said out loud while trying to hold in his excited laughter.

The increase to his creatures stats were huge after his awakening. Noah couldn't help but wear a creepy smile from the pure bliss of how great his new class was just by obtaining it. All of his personal stats may not reflect what he truly desired but the strength of his creatures completely made up for it, especially when he thought about the fact that he has yet to even tap into his class potential.

"..."

Meanwhile on Ailetta's side, it was unbelievably quiet if you didn't account for the noise Fenrir was making. It was unusual, considering that they should've been fighting too. However when they saw the weird interaction with Noah and Fenrir that inspired the change within the wolf, their world turned upside down. 'Were we really just trying to save them?' Some if not most of the students had the same thought.

The group had visibly relaxed when they noticed that ants never attempted to turn to fight back after they put Noah into their sights, but when Fenrir turned the tables, the only person who was relieved of the situation was Ailetta. Everyone else felt a dangerous chill down their spine when the beast was moving faster than what they could keep up with.

It didn't help that the bloodthirst stat Fenrir was in was affecting the students who hadn't experienced the situation of being prey in the eyes of the predator. Ants didn't have that same aura that something like Fenrir would have. They didn't have the eyes nor the presence that made you visualize your death just by staring at them.

"Gu-guys? I think we need to get out of here…" Bailey was the first to speak up, when she saw Fenrir's unusualness. The others weren't sure what she meant by that, but there were still some people there in the group with enough common sense to know what was going on.

"I agree with Bailey, Fenrir seems to be under the effect of some kind of skill. I don't think he would think twice about attacking us if we got in his way." Ailetta chimed in as she made her way back towards the others, but she didn't forget to keep her skill in effect. She didn't know when she could be attacked, especially after hearing the yells that originated from the dorm behind them.

"Ah Sam! Som-someone help us alread-argh!"

The students became aware of the deserters' peril and turned around to see the huge groups being ravaged by the zombies from the dorm. The runner zombies alone were already a challenge for the average level three human and when you add in the sprinters that were strong enough to contend with a human with stats between seven and nine, those students who never tried to participate in the fights stood no chance at all to survive.

But as someone who wanted to prove they could be a great leader, Mark was the first to lead the charge to help the students in need while Noah handled the most troubling foe.

"Well I guess that leaves the big one to me until Fenrir is done…that's the only downside of the skill, but it's definitely a fault I can live with. But if she's just going to be so kind and sit there then I'll take her up on her graciousness, I still have time to power up!" He same with gusto when he mentioned the power up as he couldn't contain his smile once again. Ever since he's awakened, it's been hard for him to contain his excitement. He was like a little kid who was given a new toy and just found out the correct way to play with it.

Holding up his hand, a stone-like object came out from his ring that he held in his other hand, the stone was the upgrade stone from before. There were only three skills he could upgrade right now and he had his eyes set on one in particular.

[Decree of Equivalent Exchange has leveled up to Level 1!-Through the will of the user, you can now temporarily recieve or grant your subordinates stats two specific attributes of 20%. Number of attributes affected and the percentage given/taken will increase based on skill level, and can only be used with the undead.]

"This! This is exactly as good as I was expecting, haha~" Noah laughed out loud before he became serious, he still had one last thing to do and he had to be fast because from the look of it, the ant Queen was becoming anxious due to the deaths of all of her minions.

'Well at this point maybe I should just go with….'
