“Why are the Black Minotaurs here?!”

Elka, the Silver Wolf tribe’s chief, and two other silver wolves were taken aback by the sight of two Black Minotaurs following Theo.

Black Minotaurs were monsters from the 99th floor, and the gap between them and the Silver Wolf tribe that resided on the 85th floor was significant. It was a very unfavorable situation.

However,

“Chief Elka, what should we do?”

“Focus on the request. We have to complete the request to get food from Grid.”

They had a reason they couldn’t back down. The young wolves of the tribe had been waiting for days just for the food they would bring.

‘We must get information about Straw Hat this time, no matter what happens!’

The silver wolves prepared for battle against the Black Minotaurs.

Eummeo!

Woo Cheon-Sa protected Theo while Woo Cheon-Sam stepped forward.

“Go easy on them, meow! You mustn’t kill them, meow!”

Eummeo!

As Woo Cheon-Sam was nodding in response to Theo’s words,

Thump, thump, thump.

The silver wolves rushed quickly towards Woo Cheon-Sam. The only thing they could do in this situation was to make the first move.

Elka rushed straight at Woo Cheon-Sam while the other two wolves moved to the sides, looking for an opening.

Roar!

Elka launched his body at Woo Cheon-Sam’s right thigh.

Kwadeuk.

Elka managed to strike too easily.

Thump. Thump.

The other wolves bit Woo Cheon-Sam’s left arm and right shoulder.

However,

Eummeo!

Woo Cheon-Sam’s skin was tough and thick enough to resist the wolves’ sharp teeth. Woo Cheon-Sam, unbothered, grabbed the wolves biting his arm and shoulder and slammed them to the ground.

Bang!

Crack! Crack!

Eummeo!

Having knocked out two wolves, Woo Cheon-Sam threw a punch at Elka.

‘It’s dangerous!’

Elka quickly dodged back, seeing Woo Cheon-Sam’s attacking fist.

But,

Eummeo!

Woo Cheon-Sam’s next punch was already flying towards Elka. Despite his size, he moved quickly.

‘I can’t dodge this.’

Elka saw Woo Cheon-Sam’s huge fist approaching him and his life flashed before his eyes.

“Elka, listen carefully. Although we are currently free mercenaries, moving for money, our ancestors were noble wolves who fought to uphold their pride in the past. You must always remember this and never bring disgrace to the honor of our ancestors.”

These were words his grandfather always said to him as a child. His grandfather’s expression would come alive whenever he said those words, with a smile at the corner of his mouth and brightness in his eyes.

“Yes, Grandpa! When I grow up, I will also become a noble wolf, fighting to uphold our pride!”

“That’s right. That’s right.”

Elka wanted to become a wolf that protected pride more than anyone else, remembering his grandfather’s words. However, his dream was shattered when a severe famine struck the tower a hundred years ago, drastically worsening the food situation.

Many adults of the tribe chose to starve to death by giving up their food to save the young wolves. Elka’s grandfather and parents also passed away during that time.

Through experiencing the famine, Elka realized that pride alone does not provide food, that talking about pride is like chasing after clouds, and that maintaining pride is a tremendous luxury.

So, he had been determinedly working as a freelance mercenary, earning money to fill the stomachs of the wolves in the tribe.

‘Was I a noble wolf?’

Elka asked himself. The answer came quickly. No. He was a despicable wolf who had thrown away his pride. He had no regrets, just a sense of disappointment.

‘If there is a next life, I want to live once as a noble wolf who upholds pride.’

Elka closed his eyes with the hope of a next life.

Thud!

Crack!

Elka, who was hit by the fist of Woo Cheon-Sam, passed out.
