This is bad! They are surrounding me and growling, they are prepared to attack me at any moment… shit! I shouldn’t have stopped running, they seem hungry, and my fat arse is going to be the main dish.

  - “GRAAA!!!”.

  Eh? one of those things jumped right at me! That thing is fast but I still could see it’s movement, sadly I wasn’t fast enough to dodge it so the bastard is biting my arm now, but…

  - “…GRRR?”

  Its bite can’t break my arm? It barely pierced my arm just a little. It let go and jumped back, oh, the other ones are slowly getting closer. Hmm… I need something to use against them, but what? Should I get another tree?

  - “ROAAAR!!!”

  Another attack, this time 4 of them, they all got to my legs, but just like last time, their fangs barely could pierce my body, it’s incredible what 10 more points in defense could do to me… now it’s my turn baby!

  - “…!!!”.

  Charge!!! I used my skill to attack the wolves at my feet, they seemed to sense the danger since they released me and move back, but not all of them could escape, I smashed one of the wolves to the ground, and the others barely could dodge it.

  - “… GR… GRRR!…”.

  He resists it? Damn thing! Shit! The other ones jumped right at me! UGH!!!… aaagh… shit! I have 2 wolves on my back, 3 at my legs, and 2 in my arms. I’m going down!

  - “ROAAAR!!!”.

  The one who was hurt is getting ready to attack, this is bad! Even with a better defense, if this many bite me at the same time, eventually my defense will be broken. I need… quick step! Charge!…

  - “…!!!”.

  - “GRRR?… GRAAA!!!”.

  Yes! By using both skills at the same time I just was able to move my body enough to stand up and hit all the wolves at the same time, now they are stepping back and I have less than 30 seconds of improved speed, but that’s not enough, probably the weakest one is the one I already hit twice, the rest all are almost intact, and I don’t know how many hits will I need to kill even one, not to mention I just used 11 ME. since I used my “quick step” once and “charge” twice.

  - “GRRR!!!”.

  - “GRAAA!!!”.

  - “ROAAAR!!!”.

  Here they come again! Why don’t you migrate your arses away from me? I only have 23 more ME. and about 25 more seconds of quick-step, so… here I come! Charge!!!

  - “…!!!”.

  Good! I hit 5 of them, but 3 of them seem way faster and stronger than the rest, those must be the ones with the higher levels, they are fast since they were able to dodge my charge from such a short distance. They are up again… shit! One of them bites my arm and… what? He just took a piece of me! No good! My defense is crumbling little by little, another one to my legs, that’s an old one, my furry friend! Take this! I hit it horizontally with my right arm sending it away, 2 more dogs straight to my chest, let’s do a bear hug!!!

  - “GRAAA!!!… GR… GRAAA!...”.

  What? Did I level up? YES!!!

  What is this? So many notifications… rank up? Leveling up a skill? I don’t know what is happening, but I need to hit harder, so hopefully, I choose correctly…

  Let’s test this shit! Here I go, CHARGE!!!

  Yes! 2 down, 2 levels up and 1 rank up! Now there are only 6 to go! Come on!

  - “GRAAA!!!”.

  - “...!!?”.

  … UGH!!! it bites my shoulder! Aaagh! Ugh... bastard! Take this! I started to repeatedly hit my shoulder with my hand, it hurts but that way I’m killing this wolf…

  And another one bites the dust! Take that bitch!

  - “GRRR… ROAAAR!!!”.

  … that one seems pissed off, I’m ready! Another wolf just jumped to my back, and before I could take it and throw it away, 2 more wolves just bite my left arm and started to destroy it… what? Oh shit! Now the 3 ones in the back are getting ready to attack me, this is getting bad too fast.

  - “GRAAA!!!”.

  AAAGH!!! bloody hell! that’s my damn head! I will kill this bastard, only 10 more seconds, charge!!! charge!!! CHARGE!!!

  - “ROAAAR!!!”.

  - “GRAAA… GR?…”.

  I just use charge to move my arms around violently, I’m basically spinning with my arms wide open while trying to move closer to the wolves, and luckily, it seems like I gave a few good hits.

  Yeah, baby! I’m on fire! Getting level up after level up, this is what I’m talking about!!! Every time I level up I recover vitality and ME. which makes this fight easier, but who would have thought that I would be so lucky.

  - “ROAAAR!!!”.

  I’m not done spinning yet, so let me show you more of my new CHARGE LEVEL 2!!!

  - “GRAAA!!! ROAAAR!!!”.

  Fuuu… there are only 3 dire wolves left, but 2 of them seem to be the strongest, yet, I feel weirdly confident about this. One of the wolves attacked me again, but this moves faster than the previous ones, he tried to bite my shoulder but I barely dodge it, this…? What? My legs again? Aaagh! One of these suckers is biting the back of my leg.

  - “GRRR!!! GRAAA!!!”.

  Here comes another one! Aaagh!!! straight to my… why would you bite there? Damn it! Harden! Quick-step! Charge! All out!!!

  - “…!!!”

  - “…? GRAAA!!!”.

  I let my body fall to the ground before rolling and standing up again, thanks to that I separate from the wolves, now I have about 25 more seconds of my harden skill and quick step skill, and I see one of the wolves down, take this! Smash!

  - “ROAAAR!!!”

  - “ROAR!!! GRAAA!!!”

  Now it’s a 2 v 1! come here puppies from hell! Let me show you, my strength!!! I jumped forward, which made the ground shake once I landed, of course, I’m around 5 meters tall, the wolves take some distance but I still have one at reach if I move fast enough, charge!

  - “…!!!”.

  - “GRAAA!!!”.

  The wolf also charged against me, or so it seems, face to face, take this!!! AAAGH!!! the sucker bite my arm when I hit it, and somehow it breaks my arm and now I lost my left hand, however, I think I landed a pretty good hit.

  Finally! there’s only one left. The bastard is looking at me with what I can only describe as hate, he seems to be trembling a little, but not out of fear, it’s something else, something… wait? I've seen that before...

  - “GRRR!!!... ROAAAAAR!!!”.

  UGH!!! This energy... it’s like the first wolf I encounter, but… this feels way weaker, I don’t know if it’s the difference in power between the wolves or is just me that got stronger... Wait! No time to think about it, if this is like with the other, then maybe this wolf is calling reinforcements, in that case, I have to kill it and get away from here.

  - “GRRR!!!”.

  Last hit! And once again! Harden!!! Quick-step!!! Charge!!!

  - “ROAAAR!!!”.

  The wolf seems stronger and moves faster, but we both are doing a face-off with all in. The closer we get the more pressure I feel, I'm trying to see the wolf to his eyes but it’s difficult, if it wasn’t for the fact that I’m a Golem now and seem to composed myself kind of fast I probably would be running the other way, those eyes are too damn scary.

  - “GRAAA!!!”.

  - “…???”.

  What? The wolf just... it was coming straight at me and suddenly moved to the side, the bastard is aiming for my side, and… AAAGH!!!… ugh... now it's biting my left side...aaagh… damn it! Luckily I have only stones there and no longer meat and ribs, I probably would have lost my side. Ugh!… it knocked me down again… I will… I have to… CHARGE!!!

  - “GRRR…?? GRAAA?? ROAR!!!”.

  Got you sucker!!! thanks to "Charge" I move enough to knock the wolf, and then I trapped it in a bear hug, now I’m going to crush it! The wolf moves violently and still takes bites at me, especially my right arm… almost!!!

  - “…!!!”.

  I did it!

  … Huh!!? New body? What the hell is thing talking about?

  … what? it’s true, I no longer have equipment!… shit! Now that I see myself, my body is pretty wrecked, I mean, literal stones are falling from my body, I don’t have my left hand anymore, my left arm is barely moving, my sides are practically crumbling even my new legs have missing parts, my vitality is almost full but my body itself is in such a messy state, how does this even works?

  - “...”.

  I better go find a place to rest and try to find new materials, the problem is, what materials? And how do I create a new body?

  ... Thank you, it’s good to know that I can always count on you... Damn it! What am I supposed to do now? Will I have to just go around the forest collecting rocks? This whole "body" thing is so... ugh!!! I don’t even understand what’s going on. In the end, I start moving as I can to get some materials to fix my “body”, collecting rocks, what a joke!
