Don't worry, I won't chop you

Alex's guess was soon confirmed when she discovered a magic book inside the Frost Werewolf's cave. It was a book on intermediate frost magic. 

During the battle, the Frost Werewolf's eyes had glowed red, and it drooled all over the place, looking every bit the mad creature. 

Could such a creature really learn magic? 

This proved that the Frost Werewolf originally possessed intelligence, and its frost magic wasn't an innate talent but acquired through learning.

The truth was clear. Initially, the Frost Werewolf must have been normal, but something later influenced its mind, making it appear mad. Could this be related to the mysterious item everyone was searching for?

Alex casually pocketed the magic book—a valuable find, as it was one of the few ways to enhance strength besides leveling up. 

She then scoured the cave for anything useful. Having explored the area thoroughly, Alex prepared to leave.
