Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 3024

"You're asking for death!" Kaelan roared. His steel claws struck repeatedly, leaving countless afterimages in their wake.

Andrew's greatsword danced before him, creating a dense web of blade shadows that clashed with the claws, sending massive showers of sparks flying. With a tearing sound, one side of Andrew's body was torn open as a claw barely grazed him, ripping a deep gash that sent blood gushing out.

The werewolf lifted his bloodstained claw to his mouth and licked it. Standing upright, he grinned viciously.

"Boy, you should be careful. Next time, I might tear half your body off."

Andrew's face remained expressionless. The torn wound slowly closed, and the bleeding stopped within moments.

Such rapid recovery caused Kaelan's triumphant laughter to falter slightly.

Andrew exhaled sharply, the sound like a bellows. His chest was pounding as his muscles bulged one by one.

Kaelan's eyes narrowed. His face showed no fear, but his heart was beating fast.

'Is this guy even human? Why is his body changing so much like our sacred race? He has the speed and power of the werewolf clan, plus the freakish recovery and agility of vampires. No.., Something's wrong with him. I absolutely can't let him live!'

Those thoughts flashed through Kaelen's mind in an instant. He rose upright and swung his steel claws again, launching another attack.

At the same time, Andrew's greatsword traced a perfect arc through the air.

Two crisp clangs rang out as the blade struck Kaelen at the exact moment his strength began to drop. The massive claws veered sideways, suddenly out of control. The recoil hit Kaelen at the worst possible moment, making his body feel violently unbalanced.

A powerful sense of danger washed over Kaelan, and he let out a furious roar in panic. His fur rippled as muscle mass surged rapidly toward his abdomen.

Even so, Andrew's perfectly executed strike still sliced open Kaelan's belly. Beneath layers of dense, hardened muscle, the werewolf's massive organs were exposed.

The intense pain forced Kaelen to grunt and stagger back two steps. He clutched his abdomen as energy surged, quickly sealing the wound.

It was the same kind of terrifying regeneration. However, it only forced the gaping wound to close.
