My Werewolf System

Chapter 71: A Main Quest

Six guys from Eton High had suddenly surrounded Gary and Innu and it was clear that they hadn’t come for a simple talk. However, Gary had instantly noticed that something was different about this attack compared to the last one. These guys were nowhere near as bulky and as it turned out, they were far worse in a fight.

‘They don’t seem to belong to the Rugby club. Were they just regular students at Eton High? Did I mess them up so badly that they’re now scared of me? No, otherwise they wouldn’t have attacked me a second time and only sent out these guys.’ Gary wondered as he looked at the students rolling about in pain on the ground.

After the fight, Gary had realised something, how much he had improved. Innu’s training had paid off, and his improvement in stats although minimal really showed during this fight, he was practically untouchable to anyone who had never fought before.

“Hey, what was that all about? Why the hell did you get in my way, only to punch those guys out yourself? Were your three too easy?” Innu complained. “Look I know you’ve been improving and you might want to show off, but there was no need to do that. If this was a game, then what you would have just done was similar to kill stealing…”

“My bad, I was just trying to look out for you. I was worried that if you exert yourself it would be bad for your injury. I mean we have that tag team match coming up soon, can’t allow my partner to get anymore hurt on my watch, right?” Gary apologised with a smile rubbing the back of his head. “Besides, if this was a game, shouldn’t you let me kill the last guys from my Penta?”

‘If only you knew.’ Gary thought to himself, as he had gotten in Innu’s way exactly to ‘kill steal’ his opponents. His system only rewarded him Exp for those he himself knocked out. As this was a rare opportunity, he had to make the most of it, even if it meant that Innu might feel patronised.

With his increased Strength and Charging Heart it was far easier than last time. He hadn’t received any Quest for it, yet the six students had still awarded him with 120 Exp. Combined with the Daily Quest he had been doing each day before practice, it was enough for him to finally get the Level Up he had worked towards.

[Congratulations, you have now reached: Level 5]

[A stat point has been granted]

[95/628 exp]

‘Hmmm, I had kind of been hoping to get another skill that might help me in my fight against Billy. Oh well, good thing I at least got Claw Drain recently. System, mind explaining why I got 20 Exp for these guys while I got 25 Exp for their friends? Is it because they’re weak, or because my Level increased?’

As usual, Gary got no response. His Werewolf System truly was a fickle mistress. However after a few steps he did receive a new message.

[New main quest received]

[You have grown as a werewolf and you’re still not dead yet. That’s a surprise!]

[Continue to grow and reach level 10, where a new class awaits]

[Objective: reach Level 10]

[Reward: Select a Class]

‘A class, now this is really starting to feel like a game. What even is a werewolf class, that doesn’t even make sense. I already had so much trouble wrapping my head around the Alpha thing.’

It was something that Gary would just have to worry about when he reached that level, that was if he could survive the night of the full moon. He knew he had no chance of levelling up five levels by then. So, he decided to focus on what he could do.

He needed to figure out where exactly he would be putting this stat point. Knowing that Billy was out there possibly waiting for him to attack, it didn’t seem wise to save it up. Now that he knew for a fact that each of his three base stats could be increased through training and hunting targets, he decided to place the point into Energy or Health.

‘I guess Energy is more versatile. 10 more Health won’t really help me, but this way I can use it for Charging Heart or Claw Drain. Being able to replenish my Health seems better than having a bigger pool and who knows how many more skills I will get in the future. If only I knew if Billy also has skills like me… ’

[Your Energy has now increased to a maximum of 120]

There was another reason why Gary had chosen Energy. The closer it got to the full moon, the faster his points were going down, even if he turned off the Marks.

“Hey, who ordered you to attack us?! Spill it!” Innu yelled at one of the students as he grabbed him by the collar. The injured guy was still barely conscious, unable to reply.

“Let’s just leave them be. I don’t think they’re going to say anything and if we stay here we might attract the wrong kind of attention.” Gary suggested as he was in a good mood after feeling himself grow a little bit stronger.

“You don’t understand, I know these guys because I used to be with them! I know everyone who could put up a fight, but these ones are just mere scrubs. They wouldn’t attack us without a reason. I need to know if Eton High got a new leader after I transferred!” Innu kept shaking the guy, but not getting any answer, he took to another. Still no reaction. He gave Gary an annoyed look, to which the high schooler just shrugged.

Later that night, Gary went to sleep as he did every night but when he woke up he was greeted with the message he had been putting off for a long time.

[Your bloodlust grows even further]

[1 day until the next full moon]
