Chapter 534: Beta Vs Omega

During their time at the academy, the three Altered students had seen Gary transform his appendages many times. They still recalled how shaken up they had been seeing it for the first time, yet without realising it they had grown used to it. As such, seeing Kai and Olivia do the same during the gang war had not really phased them.

Thanks to that experience, seeing Midwak to do the same and attack them with his deadly claws and strength, the trio hadn't been frightened into inaction. Nevertheless, all of that changed now as they stared at his bestial form. From head to toe, it felt like they were staring at a wall of muscle.

In his full Werewolf form, Midwak was around eight feet tall, his head only around a foot shy of touching the ceiling. His razor sharp teeth had bits of saliva dropping off its teeth onto the floor. Their natural instinct told the three Altered that they should run away, rather than face such a creature.

"They're in full Altered form!" Ian shouted as he pointed at the two. It wasn't just Midwak that was giving them a strange feeling because they could see the blonde teenager had fully transformed as well. If it wasn't for the fact they could still see his black and gold uniform that had stretched to fit his new size, there was a good chance they wouldn't have recognised him either.

For a moment, nobody moved. A heavy, deep breathing could be heard from the two Werewolves in the room.

'It will be my first time fighting against a Werewolf who isn't Olivia or Gary.' Kai thought to himself as he continued to observe the intruder. 'Unlike with Olivia or Gary, I don't feel any sort of connection to him, so he could be from another Pack. I have no idea how old that guy is, but he doesn't seem so surprised to see that I'm also a Werewolf. I have no idea what he is capable of, so I need to be careful, especially with Gary's friends still around.'

"You." Midwak pointed with a long finger and a sharp finger nail. "Your eyes… you're a Beta. You're not worth my time! Bring out your leader!"

There was a heavy growl with his voice. It shook what was left of the furniture and the students couldn't help but gulp. They even had to remind themselves to breathe in this situation.

"Fine, if you don't want to call him, I'll give your Alpha a reason to show up!" Midwak smiled as he charged at the grey Werewolf. Once he was within range, Kai swung out his leg, aiming for a kick to the face. The muscles of his physical werewolf body along with the speed were great.

It hit the side of Midwak's arm, who grunted a little bit and placed the leg under his armpit as he grabbed on and lifted Kai's entire body, slamming him into the floor.

"W-we have to help!" Numba stammered, yet still exploding forward. A large sound was made from the floorboards as Numba launched from his position. Although his attention had been on Kai, Midwak who leapt up in the air and grabbed onto the ceiling with his legs and arms.

Meanwhile, Numba continued forward and hit nothing, making him unable to stop. That was the problem with his Altered form. His explosive power was as much a boon as it was a downside when he missed.

"I don't need you annoying flies anymore. " Midwak growing as he jumped down from the ceiling and went toward both Ian and Izzy. Seeing this once again Ian was ready to sacrifice himself as he activated his Altered form standing in front of his childhood friend.

The large arm was raised and at a speed beyond Ian's ability to follow he felt a heavy backhand hit his face and his whole body was chucked in the air with it. The Altered looked back while in the air and he could see the Werewolf standing right in front of Izzy who was shaking with fear. The girl hadn't transformed, nor had she moved from her spot.

'Move! I have to move! Why isn't my body listening to me?!' Izzy's mind was ordering her feet to do as they were told, but nothing was happening. 'Everyone else was able to move, so why can't I?'

Opening its large mouth, Midwak bit right down on Izzy's shoulder. His teeth easily sunk into her flesh and as the boys saw this, they screamed at the top of their lungs.

Izzy looked at both of them. She only felt a sharp yet dull pain in the area. A breeze of wind seemed to go past Numba just then, as he saw something else leap up and open its mouth wide.

It bit down hard right, on Midwak's neck it had clenched down hard not letting go and twisting its head.

'That's a… grey wolf.' Numba was baffled as to where that creature had come from. With Altered being an accepted part of society it wasn't too strange for two people to transform into wolf-human hybrids, but this was undoubtedly a wild animal, a large one at that which had appeared out of nowhere. Yet, it had some strange items of clothing on it as well.

Eventually, Midwak was forced to let go of Izzy, shifting his attention to the grey wolf. It was on the floor on all fours and the wolf began to run right toward Midwak when it leapt up in the air it where it transformed back into a Werewolf crashing right into the black furred giant, piercing his stomach with his sharp nails.

Kai's Werewolf form was hovering above him, who knelt on the floor putting pressure on the wound.

"You, Goat Altered, take your friends out of here!" Kai ordered in a growling voice. You're no help in the fight, and are more of a hindrance. If you want to help, call Gary!"

Midwak lifted his hand off the wound that had already healed and his nails that pointed at Kai flew through the air like projectiles embedding themselves in the grey Werewolf's chest. He was bleeding profusely, but not stopping there the black Werewolf jumped from the floor and landed right on top of Kai.

"Just get out of here, and look for Gary!" Kai shouted as the two Werewolves were wrestling on the ground. "Tell them what is going on and to get Olivia and the others! HURRY!!!"

    In this type of situation, it was hard for Gary to really consider his next move. The Alpha Werewolf hadn't really come prepared with a plan in mind, aside from defeating Slith and Midwak, but with the sudden betrayal everything had turned even more chaotic. Still, the teenager thought that it might actually turn out to be a good thing, at least now it seemed like he wouldn't have to defeat nearly a dozen altered by himself.
    At the very back of the room, he could see Midwak dealing with the Altered who had seemingly wanted to avenge Slith. As valiant as his ideal might have been, he only ended up sharing in the gang leader's demise. What's more, the Omega Werewolf took a giant bite out of the Altered who was barely hanging on to life.
    'Is this what a real Werewolf is like? He... he's far worse than those mindless beasts in the special class!' Gary thought in disgust as he watched Midwak take another chunk out ouf the Altered. He wasn't even chewing, but greedily swallowing it up.
    At least the behavior of beasts could be excused as animals acting on instinct, but a Werewolf was still of sane mind. Midwak was just being himself, and in a lot of ways that's what made the gruesome sight even more grim for Gary.
    [2/11 Altered have been defeated]
    Another system message popped up, confirming the death of the Altered who must have experienced the agony of being eaten alive. Surprisingly, that didn't deter most of the other Altered as they looked to continue with their combined attack on Midwak.
    "What are you looking at?!" One of the Altered closest to Gary shouted at him. Rather than join the ones eager to gang up on the strongest fighter amongst them, this gang member chose to engage Gary before deciding which side to choose. He went to strike the Alpha Werewolf with his hands.

    Gary reacted fast and grabbed onto them, but it appeared the Altered was in the middle of transforming. From the side of his body, several long thin limbs about as thick as a bunch had come out from his ribs.
    It looked like he had at least thirty sharp insect limbs with pointed ends. All of them went straight towards Gary, penetrating the side of his arms, his shoulders and his own ribs.
    [-38 HP]
    [212/250 HP)
    'Freaking hell, that's a lot of damage!'
    Ever since Gary had increased his Endurance, in hopes of turning more into a tank-like character, he had hardly suffered attacks that took out chunks of his HP. Suffering such an attack, which had nearly managed to cut through him, made him realise that his Endurance still had a long way to go.
    If Gary let go of the attack, he was afraid that the strange arms would go in deeper, so instead he pushed the other off him, making use of his Strength, causing the Altered to fall, but as he did, Gary saw another large object swinging right for his face. Ducking down, Gary rolled to the side, and then pushed off his feet, ending up near the entrance door.
    'All of these Altered here are strong, this is nothing like the guys at the academy. Gary thought.
    On top of that, they had now all finished transforming, and it looked like six had their eyes on fighting him rather than Midwak. Judging by the looks on their faces, they didn't seem too happy about it, but going after Gary was something they would have done anyway.
    'I should be thankful Midwak chose now of all times for his betrayal. Fighting six Altered will be hard, but with a bit of luck, perhaps the others can injure him while I deal with my half.'

    Strangely, rather than assassination, or a duel, Gary ended up in a sort of
    competition with Midwak, both
    Werewolves having to take out the Altered on their side before their fight would begin. One of the Altered had giant stingers on top of his forearms, which he pointed at Gary like they were guns, and the next moment he started to fire away, small little needle flying in the teenager's direction
    Gary did not want to find out how much damage they could inflict, so he ran to the side, avoiding them all as best he could, he ran from side to side, and looked at the first Altered who had attacked him, which appeared to have some type of Iron skin on his body.
    So far, he had just stayed still standing there, but he had a reason to be, his defence was one of the strongest in the entire group.
    'If your defence is the strongest, then I will just have to make a stronger attack!' Gary thought.
    As he dodged, another large limb came from another Altered. Then another gang member soon stood in his way. At that point, Gary suddenly came to a stop, and darted at extreme speed to the right of him.
    One more Altered joined in on the attack but Gary spun his body, heading straight for his target. If someone was watching from the outside, it was almost as if they were watching an Altered sports match. Gary was using his skills that he had learnt as a rugby player to avoid the others coming towards him,
    "He's really fast for an Altered." One of the
    members complained.
    Now the iron skinned Altered could see
    that Gary was coming toward him, but with a smile on his face, he welcome the challenge.

    "You think doing the same thing will make a difference?!" The Altered taunted him. "You've already given it your best shot, face it, you're not getting past my defence."
    "If my best isn't good enough, then I just have to be better than that." Gary shouted as he told his system to allocate the stat points he had kept in reserve for just such an occasion. He was aware that now wasn't the time to be stingy, so he converted his Pawn Points to be able to enjoy an even bigger boost.
    [2 points have been added to strength]
    [Streangth 36 >>>>38]
    'This is not enough, I need to get stronger!'
    [Would you like to convert 2 Pawn Point into Stat Point(s)?]
    [Yes]
    [5 Stat Points have been obtained]
    [5 Points have been allocated into Strength]
    [Your base strength is now at 41]
    [2 Points have been allocated into Dexterity
    [Your base Dexterity is now at 30]
    'I focused too much on becoming a tank. I thought as long as I didn't die, as long as I took all the hits for the others, that they would survive, but in this situation, I have to think differently. I was the one that decided to attack the Scatterbugs, so now I need to have the Strength to attack!'
    [Skill activated Claw Drain]
    [-15 Energy]
    Gary's nails extended slightly, and with his boost in speed, he lifted both his arms and swung them down in a large x like position. His claws went deep into the iron skin, and the Altered who had been
    confident in his defense remained standing for a few seconds... until he eventually fell to the floor.
    (+15 HP)
    [212/250 HP]
    [3/11 Altered have been defeated]

    Chapter 554:

    Any second now, Gary was ready to charge in, but he just didn't know what the best way to do it was. Was Slith going to let the Altered attack him first, if so, during the fight Gary would be able to eat on them for energy as he took them down one by one.

    The problem was, the other Werewolf was present and would most likely know what he was planning on doing. If that was the case, maybe he should just use his full transformation to take out Slith with a pounce attack to shock all the others, then head for the other Werewolf.

    In the end, all of his planning was for nothing, because something had happened that he never had expected, Midwak, the one that seemed to be the right hand man of Slith, had killed him.

    - Why are you all so surprised? - Midwak asked, as he placed one foot on the desk, and held up Slith by his head.

    His eyes were gone, and it was clear to them all that he was dead.

    - You all knew that I was stronger than him. You know that I'm stronger than anyone who is in this room. Do you really think let this guy order me around because I liked him?

    One thing was clear to Gary, that this wasn't an act, nor did it seem like it was something that was planned. The other gang members who were Altered were left confused. They were shocked at what they were seeing and didn't even know what to do.

    - What, do you guys want to turn on me and attack me? - Midwak asked, as he looked at them.

    - Go ahead, you headless chickens, but you won't only be going against me but him as well, and with that I say you have no chance! So I'll give you an offer, join me and accept me as leader of the Scatterbugs, or fight me and die.

    Gary wondered what situation he was in and during this confusion whether he should fight or not. While the Changed were deciding whether or not to join Midwak, it gave him the opportunity to fight some of his allies.

    As the saying went, the enemy of my enemy is my friend and it certainly was the case in this situation.

    - Are you just going to stand there? - Midwak asked Gary, who was in the back.

    - You must know there was another reason for me killing him.

    At that moment, as Midwak was in the middle of explaining, his mouth started to grow into that of a large wolf, it was only his head though, and then he opened wide.

    Closing the top part of his upper and lower jaw he bit right into Slith's shoulder, taking a large chunk out of it.

    Blood was dripping from his mouth as Midwak swallowed.

    - You must know that we get stronger from killing and eating those we kill. We are more like beasts than like them! - Midwak said, as he continued to bite down on Slith's body in front of everyone bit by bit.

    It was a horrific sight for everyone to see, and Midwak didn't care at all, it was as if no one was in the room as he indulged in his feast.

    - This is bad... He was already strong and depending on how strong Slith was, Midwak could get even stronger. - Gary thought.

    - I have to act now. Gary started to transform his legs first, as he ran straight ahead, but quickly one of the gang members from the side jumped in front of Gary. Seeing this, Gary didn't hold back as he transformed his arm.

    - One hit, have to take all of these guys down with one hit! - Gary thought, as he threw out his fist using all of his strength.

    The gang member in front of him started to change, his body was getting blacker and his skin was turning a slightly dark colour. It almost looked like rusted Iron. Still, Gary threw out his fist, hitting the large man.

    A loud impact was made that the others could hear the punch but the gang member was still standing and he hadn't moved from his spot.

    - You must have fought some pretty weak Altered up till this point, to be stupid enough to come in here…

    - But there is an incredibly large difference between those from a tier-2 gang and those from a tier- 3. - The man said.

    It looked like some of the other gang members had made their choice, as they were starting to creep around Gary, but not all of them.

    - You killed him, you killed Slith. I knew you were a dirty rat from the beginning! - One of the men shouted as he leapt up, aiming to stop Midwak in the middle of his meal on top of the desk.

    The man started to transform mid-air, getting a pair of rounded wings that flew him fast into the other, and his nose turned into a snout, looking like that of an elephant, only brown in colour. It stretched out aiming for Midwak.

    When it came out to him, he lifted his hand grabbing onto the snout, then with his strength pulled the Altered straight towards him. It was with such strength that the whole Altered's body was yanked through the air.

    Soon after, with his other hand already transformed, he stabbed the Altered right through the stomach.

    - This is great, another one to eat! - Midwak exclaimed, as he opened his mouth and bit right through the Altered's neck, ripping out parts of its body and swallowing it whole.

    - I am the new leader of the Scatterbugs gang - Midwak! - He cried out, with a howl.

    - With this gang, and the blood of an Alpha, will use you all to get my revenge!

      I wonder if Midwak claiming that Alphas do everything for their pack was just him projecting about his past with his previous pack.
      He might have been one himself, only for someone to murder his pack. Or he was a beta, but his alpha, whom he truly respect, got killed by non-werewolf people.
      That cold also be a reason why he didn't kill Kai.

        Also, storywise, Gary need to learn about werewolves in general, beyond what the system shows him.

      Damm this is going to be tough for Gary, 1 this dude outrank him and 2 he's making himself stronger by eating the altered guys. For me, it almost impossible for Gray to beat Midhawk.

      The way I see it, the only way Gary can beat Midhawk is with his pack or maybe he will get a power up if all the altered guys get defeated, clearing the quest the system given him.

      Thanks for the chapter BTW
