Rufus' POV:
"That's Rin! Why is she back?" Sylvia exclaimed in surprise.
Rin rushed over with a large pack of wild wolves, directly catching Richard's men off guard.
Thanks to these wild wolves, the pressure on Sylvia and me lessened, and we quickly gained the upper hand.
Richard, who stood outside the encirclement, roared furiously, "Damn! These stupid wolves again! All of you, go kill them! Show no mercy!"
Rin howled angrily and rushed towards Richard. Richard trembled with fear and immediately hid behind the guards.
"Beat the grey one! It is the leader of these wild wolves. As long as it dies, the wild wolves won't have any commands to follow," Richard said viciously.
When Sylvia heard this, she immediately rushed over to Rin.
However, Rin was stronger than we had imagined. And its size was inherently its advantage. It knocked out two guards with its huge front paw.
Many guards also turned into wolves and began to bite the wild wolves, making the scene bloodier.
"Where are our other men? Call all the guards outside! They must all die today!" Richard shouted at his subordinates again.
"Yes, Prince Richard!"
The wild wolves attacked ferociously, but they were outnumbered.
As things stood, the chance that the dispute would be settled was slim. I was afraid there was another deadlock, and we might not be able to escape by that time.
So the best thing to do was catch Richard first.
I teamed up with Sylvia and slowly approached Richard.
But Richard reacted quickly. As soon as he saw me approaching, he immediately shouted at his men to surround and protect him.
The constant stream of guards made it impossible for me to get close to Richard quickly, so I had no choice but to deal with them first.
Rin was a good comrade-in-arms. Thanks to it protecting Sylvia, I could fight without any scruples.
There was a loud bang. The gun was fired.
I felt like the whole world quieted down. All I could see in my mind was Sylvia's face.
"Rufus!"
Sylvia's voice rang out in my ears. She looked at my wounded shoulder in disbelief with tears streaming down her face.
I reached out and wiped away her tears and gave her a reassuring smile to comfort her. "Don't be afraid."
Sylvia covered the hole in my shoulder with her trembling hand. "What... What should I do?"
I wanted to reassure her that I was okay to calm her down. But I found that I was in so much pain that I couldn't speak.
The bullet pierced through my shoulder. Although it deviated from my heart, I still felt the strong burning sensation throughout my heart and the wound.
It was worse than I thought. I realized that I was hit by a silver bullet, a deadly weapon against werewolves.
