Not even in her dream did Lina think that when she would come out of the sea, the number in the sky would've fallen from 4 to 3.
Just seeing the number, she was left horrified and aghast.
While finally, the shield also stopped contracting. It looked as big as the Island, which was at the start.
10 kilometers from the radius.
But it didn't make Lina feel happy in any way. Even when the boundary was doubled, she was having a hard time enough to die.
Now that the shield had decreased the area by half, surviving would be ten times difficult.
And as if to give her the answer, she saw all the wolves turning their heads towards her.
Seeing more than a hundred thousand wolf heads turning towards her made Lina feel a chill crawl down her spine.
It felt as if the entire world was against her, and maybe it was, cuz the next moment all the wolves started surrounding her from the sky, and seeing this, hurriedly she rushed into the sea to save herself.
Swimming towards the outside of the area where there were no wolves, but the truth was, there was no area left where there were no wolves.
Cuz the sky had now filled with them, completely and utterly, and the next moment, one fourth of them dived inside the sea.
They were fast, they were ruthless, and the moment they dived completely inside, without caring where she was, they started self-destructing.
BOOM! BOOM!! BOOM!!! BOOM!!!! BOOM!!!!!
BOOM! BOOM!! BOOM!!! BOOM!!!! BOOM!!!!!
Like a tsunami, the waves of water came rushing towards Lina from every direction.
Top, left, right, as they made the hell of the sea, and in between somewhere all of that was Lina.
Getting pressed by the fiery water, getting hit by the pressure left and right, it was as if the entire sea had become her enemy, and it had.
As like a whip, the fiery water whipped her everywhere, tore open her protective freezing fire power, and slowly burned her fire-resistant body.
For Lina, her resistance towards fire itself became a bane, cuz for one minute entirely she felt her body burning.

Screaming, crying, she tried everything in her power to protect herself, but the sea, oh, the cruel sea simply did not let her go anywhere.
It made her stay inside, burned her from top to bottom, made blisters appear in her body, and then popped those blisters to burn her even more, until there was nothing more to burn.
Until there remained no skin, no muscles, no organ to burn, and gave her the cruelest death that anyone could die.
As finally, the number in the sky changed from 3 to 2.
Gone were all the humans, and remained the only two warriors, whose fight had started in their previous world and had come to this world.
"COME OUT, MARK! THERE IS NO NEED TO HIDE ANYMORE!! IT'S JUST YOU AND ME!!! IT'S TIME TO END THIS MARK!!!!" Colby screamed as one of the wolves bodies turned into his body shape, as he stared towards the sea.
But no sound came, no reply came, not even a whimper came.
But instead of getting irritated, Colby scoffed, "If you want to hide, you can keep hiding. It's not like I have anything else to do. I will simply wait. In the end, we will both die together. I have no problem with that."
Saying that he clicked his fingers, making ten wolves come and stand together, and lying on top of them, he closed his eyes and started resting, as if telling Mark that whatever he said, he truly meant it.
While the other wolves started slashing their bellies flying on top of the island, making more wolves, and with each ten seconds that passed, a giant wolf was created.
And with that, time started passing.
One minute passed.
Two minutes passed.
Five minutes passed.
Ten minutes passed.
One hour passed.
Two hours passed.
Four hours passed.
"FUCK YOU MARKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK…… FUCK YOUR ENTIRE FAMILYYYYYYYYYYYYY…….." Colby roared, "GO AND FIND THAT SON OF A BITCH! FIND HIM FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA!! BLAST YOURSELF UP!!! MAKE HIM COME BACK FROM THE SHADOWWWWWWWWW…… FUCKING DO SOMETHINGGGGGGGGGGGGGG………”
And hearing him, half of the wolves dived inside the ocean in a flurry, and there were more than six hundred giant wolves amongst them.
While the small wolves blasted themselves on top of the sea, the giant wolves went deep down.
Enduring all the pressure, they went as deep as they could and then started blasting themselves.
For a second, the world itself shook from the terrifying temperature of the fire. It was as if the sun itself had fallen down.
Space itself started cracking, much less the shadow that simply evaporated.
It was as if the god had unleashed its wrath on the mortals, and the mortal here was none other than Mark.
………..
Three hours before the wolves explosions.
Two hours and fifteen minutes, that's how long the excruciating transformation went on, building Mark's body from the inside out, as his soul itself cried out in pain.
And then there was no pain, in an instant, all that agonizing pain just disappeared, it was as if it was never there before.
Laughter came out of Mark's mouth, suddenly feeling nothing. It was a subconscious reaction, but the illusion of pain was still there, making his newly made body tremble in fear.
But somehow heaving up and down, he controlled this fear and felt the power running inside of him.
It was overwhelming, devastating, and unlimited.
It was as if he held the power of thousands of elephants inside of him, whose single strike was enough to obliterate any giant wolf, and he did not just feel this power, he was one hundred percent sure that this was the power he truly carried inside of him.
And this was in his human form. God knows what type of transformation would occur when he would transform into his tiger form.
So, letting his power take over his being, he let the shadows show him the state of things in the sky, just to see Colby sleeping on top of wolves and a number 2 in gold letters lit in the sky.
