Although he had managed to avoid his kidney being punctured, by the claws at the last minute, the claws had punctured through his back, coming out from behind him.

Creating a small fist sized hole in his back and stomach.

David\'s face was extremely unsightly and ferocious to look at and he stared at his surroundings with an extremely solemn expression and with a cautious look in his face.

Beside him, the lady had recovered somewhat but she was clearly to weak to be of any threat to David even with his serious injury.

She was confused by David\'s question and replied. "I-I really came alone."

She also gazed around in confusion, searching for the person who had injured David so severely.

David clenched his and he growled loudly towards at her.

He could tell she was telling the truth about the matter but still, that wasn\'t enough to calm his anger down for the slightest amount.

His large wolf like ears flickered as he focused them outwards. Even his feet were planted firmly against the ground to feel the vibrations of the ground.

His muscles trembled and his furs raised and dropped down his skin as he continued to test for the flow of air in the atmosphere.

David was finally a bit assured that there was no way the hidden enemy would be able to pass through all of those three levels of detection.

His eyes glowed golden as he continued to scan his surroundings. At this time, the injury on his stomach had stopped bleeding and was slowly repairing itself.

And although it was slow, it was almost 10 times faster than the healing rate of a normal human.

Suddenly his ears twitched and his fur stood on end. His eyes widened bright and David stomped heavily to the ground.

"Boom!"

The entire desert seem to tremble under his stomp. And his body was propelled backwards by the force be had created.

In front of him, a sharp claw had appeared out of no where and clawed directly for his heart.

Although the claw was fast, David had been a little faster and had retreated so quickly the claws only pierced deeply into his chest but wasn\'t able to touch his heart.

Five claw mars could be seen on his chest an seven some of the ribs protecting his heart had been chopped off by the claw.

Blood sprayed out from his wounds but with the control over his body, he clenched the muscles surrounding the injured area, stopping his body from bleeding out.

The heat around his body directly burned the wound up, closing the opened flesh up.

David\'s expression was one of anger and slight fear.

Even with all of his preparations, to detect the hidden enemy, the person had still managed to appear in front of him without a single sound, disruption of air nor reverberation from the earth.

It was impossible for such a person to even exist. David began to sweat profusely as he was beginning to feel the gravity of the situation.

He knew if he didn\'t handle this properly, he would undoubtedly be gravely injured or even worse, be injured to death.

His injury was starting to heal by this time but it was faster as it was only a fleshy wound.

He had long since noticed that his skin heals very rapidly compared to his muscles, cells or internal injury.

It was something he he had noticed every time he was gravely injured. If he didn\'t take anything full of energy, or nutrients, his internal organs would heal at a very slow pace.

Suddenly, David\'s expression tightened as the hair at the back of his neck stood on end.

"Grave danger!"

His eyes widened as though it was about to pop out from its socket.

His golden eyes blood was being covered with numerous tiny blood vessels.

Suddenly, his neck snapped sideways like he didn\'t have a single bone in his neck and five claws scratched past his neck, drawing five bloody marks in its wake, his neck and cheek.

David had a malicious smile and the muscles in his arms constricted and transformed from it original length to half its previous length.

But one could see a hint of gold colour within the right arm. His entire arm was glowing red with intense heat and you could even see the veins in his arm. The arm was full of muscles, contoured to the point it looked perfectly sculptured.

David quickly swiped forwards at a random position. There was a muffled booming sound in the air as wind barrier was being broken, making the air explode from intense pressure and might.

The wind screeched as David\'s claw tore apart the void and slashed at a position in the distance.

"Whoosh!"

"Slash!!!"

Blood immediately spilled out of the empty location he had just slashed and there was a muffled groan of pain and the vague figure of a kid showed up on the atmosphere but it suddenly disappeared into thin air back, looking as though it was only an illusion.

David retreated a few hundred meters away and he squinted his eyes. "A kid?"

He was sure of what he had seen and it was truly the figure of a kid but that didn\'t even make his killing intent any lesser.

Instead, his murderous waves grew so high to the skies, roaring with abandon fury as it blazed in the surrounding area.

He would kill absolutely anyone who was trying to kill him. And even with the ambush he had prepared, he was only able to scratch the person, drawing out blood.

The person was so fast David could only eat his dust.

Triggered, he brought his fingers to his lips and licked the blood off it.

There was a slight smirk and a look of helplessness in his eyes. And with gritted teeth, he made his decision.

Suddenly, far off the distance, a kid see to have walked out of the void and appeared before David.

In his chest, there was a set of claw four marks on his chest but it was only fleshy wounds and wasn\'t even worth mentioning as the wounds close up right in front of David\'s shocked gaze.

"You are quite strong for your kind." The kid had a look of indifference in his face as he gazed at David mockingly.

"Could say the same about you." David squinted his eyes as he gazed carefully at the kid.

That expression, that face, the coldness in the voice, it was nothing like a true kid\'s voice.

"You are worthy for me to use my full strength against you, do not disappoint me." The kid said and he took a step forwards only to disappear back into the void.

As he saw this, David grinned wildly but one could see the madness in his eyes as he muttered. "Courting death."

His figure suddenly transformed and in that single millisecond, he took a step to the left with his claws outstretched as though to grab something .

Suddenly, there was a squelching sound and David\'s entire arm was covered in blood as he remained standing in that position.

There was weird silence from the world and the blood rapidly dripping to the ground became even prominent.

Suddenly, the figure of a kid could be seen flickering in and out of existence as though he was a ghost or a spectre.

David\'s red eyes gazed into the kids eyes in fury and madness.

"H-how!? T-that s-shouldn\'t be possible!" The voice of the kid wasn\'t cold anymore but it strangely contained a hint of emotion which wasn\'t one of either regret, nor shock.

He was just a bit surprised and oddly enough, he was relieved.

David wasn\'t phased by those emotions as he sneered. "I didn\'t do much, you just happened to rush into my arms."

He grabbed the child\'s heart with even more force and directly tore it out if his chest.

In David\'s fist, blood pumped out from the heart as he directly popped it into his mouth.

Even as he did this, he grabbed the kid by the throat and directly sucked the body dry if blood.

David\'s eyes went wide as the blood entered through his throat and into his stomach.

The energy in the blood was so enormous David could hardly believe it.

He had only sucked in a couple of blood before he was forced to pull away.

The blood was so nutritious David\'s every body felt full after drinking just 2 pints of blood.

David\'s eyes shone. He couldn\'t let such a blood to go to waste. He sucked in another half a pint of blood before he couldn\'t go on anymore least he burst apart from too much energy.

He vanished from his previous position and quickly grabbed a backpack to drain the blood off the corpse.

David\'s eyes was full of confusion as he stared at the body in front of him.

This wasn\'t the most delicious and nutritious blood he had tasted so far and that was exactly what was confusing him.
