Raising A Few Wives in a Beast Apocalypse

Muku's fight.....

{Well, although it took some effort to kill the other one before and this one is stronger, I should be able to do it with less effort. I now know what to expect after all. Would have been better if I could use the force field and the speed booster at the same time though. No use in thinking about what I can't do, now it's time to fight!}. Muku thought as he and the dog stared at each other with killin intent radiating from both sides.

Boom!

As if on cue, both of them charged forward at the same time. Muku stepping on the desks while the dog bulldozed its way through. When they were less than three meters away from each other, the killer dog lifted it's paw, unleashing its signature attack.

Woosh! ×4

"Not this time!" With that shout Muku jumped into the air avoiding the projectile claws and another sword appearing in his free left hand. Now holding two swords he went down, the swords aimed at the dog's head. Like the one before it, the dog stood on its hind legs, it even seemed more adept at it than the last one.

Clang ×2

Both swords were successfully halted by its claws.

Woosh!

When it opened its mouth about to bite at Muku's head, a third sword speedily pass by Muku's head and before the dog could react, the sword was already poking into its mouth, coming out the other side.

The killer dog quickly pushed Muku away and tried to grab the sword to pull it out. Whether it would survive even if it successfully pulled it out was questionable. Blood was already pouring out of it's mouth and back of the head were the sword came out.

Slash! Bang!

The dog was so occupied with the sword that it completely forgot about Muku. He took that chance to run behind it and slash its head off from the back, putting it out of its misery.

(A/N : no the author isn't going senile or doesn't know how to count. A low stage Rank One beast counts for one kill, while a mid stage counts for two. In fact, it depends on the strength of the beast.

Note: Killer dogs are one of the weakest beasts around, even when they are Rank One)

"Tsk, seems these things aren't anything special once you know what to expect." Muku said while while walking out of the room to go and see Jade's fight. He chose her before the others since she was alone while they were three. He did see them paying a game of "dodgespikes" with their dog though.

When he got to her room though, his lip couldn't help but twitch. He was met by the site of Jade sitting on the body of the dog that had five holes on its skull. Seemed she had finished her fight even before him and a lot easily too.

"Oh you're finally here, what took you so long". Jade said with a bored expression seeing him get into the room.

...

A few minutes before.

Jade and the killer dog were staring at each, neither one was moving or taking their eyes off of the other.

"Hmm, this should a lot more fun than killing those defenceless trash from before right?". She spoke to herself while her transformation occurred in front of the now bewildered dog.

"Ahh!". Jade screamed as she ran forward to psych herself up. She ran at her fasted speed in-between the desks and..

Stab!

[98 kills left.....]

Her claws were already dug deep into the skull of the dog before she realised it.

"What!?"

.....

"So what you're saying is you discovered an ability your class has by mistake?". Muku asked after she told him what happened.

"Yeah, it seems my shout can stun them for a second. If I had known I wouldn't have done it though, it made the fight not even worthy of being called a fight. It took all the fun out of...ow!". Jade was ranting on about how she regretted shouting when Muku flicked her forehead.

"We aren't fighting for fun you idiot, and if I ever see you holding back in the future just because you think it would make things less fun then... Hmph, wait and see." Muku quickly snuffed out her dangerous habit in the early stages of its development. Like who would want an ally who could be holding back for the fun of it when you're in a dangerous situation?.

Jade narrowed her eyes wanting to refuse but like before she couldn't help but feel that it would be a mistake if she did that. And so, without even knowing it, her beastly instincts saved her from a spanking.

"Okay, can we go now, I want to see how the others are doing" Jade said while getting up and walking out.

"This brat, sigh, where does she get the confidence to be so carefree in our situation anyway?". Muku asked himself before following her.

{Though I have to admit, right now she might be even stronger than me. I hope she doesn't realise it or I might be in for a real headache} He had some fleeting thoughts as he stared at her back.

.....

"Hahaha, Layla, what are you even doing?, how are you even having so much trouble with this weak thing?". Jade said as she was looking at the fight between Layla and her dog.

Layla being a mage type couldn't get in close and personal with the dog like Muku and Jade. So she could only exchange shots woth the dog. While it threw some claws, she threw some ice arrows. They were mostly cancelling each other out and dodging the rest. This situation made her feel a bit helpless not knowing what to do. She had refused any help from Chloe and Emily, though Emily was banned from helping anyway.

Hearing Jade's taunt she for the first time was angered and...

"Haah!" She screamed out.

Stab! × 4

Ice spikes started poking out of the group, with the area in front of her being ground zero. They kept getting longer the further they got from her. The killer dog was completely caught off guard and was stabbed right through by four big ice spikes. One spike for its head, one for its chest and two for its stomach. It was even lifted into the air by the spikes, it was dead in less than a second.

[98 kills left....]

"Well....that was unexpected". Jade managed to say after collecting her jaw of the ground.

"You idiot, haven't you ever played games or watched movies?. Don't you know that mages will eventually trump over other classes in attack power?. Why would you try to piss her off?". Muku said why giving her disdainful look.

"Umm, Layla I'm sorry, I was just joking so I hope you don't take it seriously. We're friends after all...right?". Jade hearing his words couldn't help but break in cold sweat and quickly apologised to Layla.

Layla on the other and just looked at her before looking at the dog she just killed.

"Hey, don't ignore me!. We're fine are we?. Say something!" Jade was even more scared, she had no dreams of being an icicle or popsicle one day after all.

"Thank you". Layla looked at her again and only said that.

"Huh?, for what?" Jade was confused.

"I realised that strong emotions can help us advance our magic. If you didn't make me angry I don't know when I would have been able to learn the ice spikes spell". Layla explained.

"Oh, right. I totally meant to do that. And I accept your gratitude that's what friends are for right." Jade being told how useful she was couldn't help but let her ego inflate. She even puffed out her chest with a smug look on her face. The others seeing this could only roll their eyes but remained quiet
