And I am done,
I thought as I breathed out a sigh filled with relief after killing and looting the last twentieth wolf. I raised my left arm and looked down at it; it was covered with wolf bite marks,
I think I got used to the pain, more or less…
I shook my head and laughed out bitterly, “Who am I trying to fool? Each time it bit me, it was the same kind of pain,” I mumbled; then lowered my arm and raised my head, looking up into the clear sky,
I now think that it’s impossible to get used to the pain. Whoever said that men can get used to it are liars… If I can’t get used to the pain, I will just have to bear through it.
I lowered my head; then lowered my eyes, moving them to my experience bar,
<XP: 285/299>
Hmm… Allocating my attribute points now would be counterproductive. I will allocate them after I turn in the quest.
I turned my body in the direction of the two-storey house and walked off in that direction.
Walking in the direction of the two-storey house; before I could leave the forest, I stopped as a wolf appeared in my path, about 24-yards away from me.
<Wolf, Level 5>

S

I looked over my changed attribute and nodded,
time to kill the wolf. Close character window! The character window closed and I saw the wolf standing 24-yards away from me. I raised my right arm
, extended it towards it and opened my palm, but before I could use a single spell, my stomach suddenly grumbled,
I will eat soon, Shadow Bolt!
My hand got enveloped in a black glow
, and the words I needed to say floated up in my head,
“
L'togael bolt!
” A black bolt flew out of my palm.
Swoosh!
The black projectile flew through the air and hit the wolf at which I aimed at. Damage floated up above its head, <Critical, -136>. It was reduced to 114 health. It yelped from pain, locked its gaze on me, growled angrily and dashed towards me.
Shadow Bolt!
My hand got enveloped in a black glow

I am not fast enough to dodge it,
I extended my left arm and the wolf bit into it.
Damage flashed in front of me,
<-49> reducing me to 1,111 health; I felt sharp pain assault me, I frowned and I clenched my teeth, bearing it. I clenched my left fist and punched, aiming at its head.
Bam!
My fist collided with its head, damage floated up above it, <-11>. It was reduced to 9 health. It let go of my hand and retreated a few steps back. I immediately extended my right arm towards it and opened my palm,
Shadow Bolt!
My hand got enveloped in a black glow. It growled angrily while bearing its fangs at me and lunged at me with its mouth opened wide, “
L'togael bolt!
” A black bolt flew out of my palm and it hit the wolf as it was mid-lunge.
Damage floated up above its head, <-92> Its health got emptied and it fell down to the ground, dead; its body got enveloped in a golden glow.

I took a step forward, walking up to the wolf’s corpse and squatted down, touching its body that was enveloped in a golden glow with my right hand; a loot window opened.

I tapped on the item, looting it; then stood up and continued walking back to the two-storey house. I walked out of the forest and returned back to the two-storey building without fighting anything else. Reaching the two-storey house, I didn’t see the old man anywhere. I moved my head scanning the area,
he must be inside the house,
I thought; then walked up to the house and knocked on the door; a shout sounded came from inside the house, “Go away!”
