Dance Of The Wargs: A Deadly Encounter

Hee-Joon noticed that only the leader and Park Min-seo were in better condition, while the other raiders covered their ears in an attempt to block the sound. However, blood started dripping through the gaps between their hands as their ears began to bleed.

"Hand out the potions to everyone!" shouted the leader, his voice cutting through the chaos.

Hee-Joon swiftly unslung his bag from his back and opened the slot filled with potions. As he began distributing them to the rest of the team, he could see the strain on Hyun-Soo's face.

The sudden surge of mana upon entering the dungeon, combined with the loud roars of the Wargs, had taken a toll on him. Crouched down and holding his hands to one ear, Hyun-Soo tried to steady himself.

As each member of the team consumed their potions, their injuries started to mend, providing much-needed relief. One of the healers within the group took on the responsibility of tending to the wounded, ensuring their recovery continued.

"Roarrrrr!" The leader unleashed a powerful sound to divert the attention of the Wargs and draw their aggression towards him, hoping to cease their incessant howling.

However, his attempt fell short as the Wargs remained undeterred.

"Roarrrrrrrrrr....!!!!!" the leader gathered his mana once more and let out another resounding roar, successfully gaining their attention.

With the Wargs now focused on him, the leader braced himself, absorbing the onslaught of their attacks.

"Now!" he exclaimed, signaling to the rest of the party members.

"Wind Slash " one of the raiders used the attack.

" Inferno Blast " Yuna shouted.

"Zephyr Blades " Ji-Hye

Taking advantage of the distraction, the recovering members unleashed their own attacks, seizing the opportunity to strike.

" Guardian's Embrace" one of the healers cast the buff on all the party members.

Meanwhile, Park Min-seo utilized the chaos to his advantage, swiftly maneuvering through the battlefield, slashing at the Wargs with precision while deftly evading both their assaults and the attacks of his fellow teammates.

"Slash" Park Min-seo thrust his sword inside the beast's head, panting with the continuous attacks he performed.

"Screeecch " cried the beast, as it fell lifelessly.

" I am reaching my limit leader" Shouted Park Min-Seo, "We need to deal with the remaining ones soon"

"Finish strong, everyone! Just a few more left!" the leader shouted as he saw only a handful of beasts were remaining.

In that sudden moment of chaos, One of the raiders got attacked

"Aaaaarrrghhhh " cried in pain.

Everyone turned their attention to the scene unfolding before them. A raider was being dragged by the Warg, its powerful jaws clamped around the raider's hand, blood gushing out.

In a brutal attack, the Warg swiftly pierced its fangs into the raider's head, instantly ending their life.

"AAAAaaaaaaaaa " cried in the last desperate moment, before he died.

Witnessing their teammate being mercilessly dragged and killed by the monstrous Warg, a wave of fear surged through the remaining members.

"Lookout" Shouted Yuna

In the midst of the chaos, another Warg lunged towards Hyun-Soo from behind who was holding his bag, catching him off guard.

With no time to react, Hee-Joon watched in horror as Yuna bravely stepped in, attempting to shield Hyun-Soo.

"Slashhhh" Wargs fangs drew across Yuna

"Splurt" blood poured out of her body.

The Warg's razor-sharp fangs tore through Yuna's body, severing it in half with a devastating blow.

In the sudden turn of events, two raiders were instantly killed, their lives snuffed out before their comrades' eyes.

"Pull yourselves together, everyone! If we falter now, we'll all meet the same fate!" The leader's voice rang out, filled with urgency and determination.

His words echoed through the air, mingling with the sound of Ji-Hye's heart-wrenching sobs as she mourned the loss of her dear friend, Yuna.

Despite the short time they had known Hee-Joon and Hyun-Soo, a bond had formed, and the weight of Yuna's death hit them all.

Shivers coursed through Hee-Joon's body, and tears welled up in his eyes as he stared at the lifeless form. "We won't let their sacrifice be in vain," he vowed, his voice trembling with a mix of grief and determination.

The sight of their two comrades being brutally killed by the Wargs, their bodies torn apart and devoured, fueled a surge of rage within the leader.

His voice thundered with fury, "Son of a bitch! I'm going to kill every last one of you!" With a resounding roar, he charged forward, his shield held high to draw the attention of the vicious beasts.

"Don't hold back!" he shouted, his voice laced with determination. "Hit them with everything you've got!"

" Fury of Wind " Shouted Ji-Hye gathering every mana she could.

In an instant, a torrent of slashing winds erupted from her outstretched hand, tearing through the bodies of the Wargs. The razor-sharp gusts sliced through flesh and fur, leaving a trail of deep cuts that oozed crimson.

"Thud" Ji-Hye fell to the ground, as she used every mana she could output in one attack.

"Here take this mana recovery potion" Hee-Joon handed out one small bottle in which potion was stored.

The air crackled with energy as the remaining raiders unleashed their most powerful attacks, channeling their anger and grief into devastating blows against the Wargs.

"Thud! Thud! Thud!" The sound of heavy impacts reverberated through the air as the wargs began to collapse to the ground one by one, succumbing to the onslaught of the raiders' combined attacks.

As the last monster fell to the ground and confirming no Wargs are currently in hiding, the leader's voice rang out,

"Hand out the mana and recovery potions to everyone!"

Hee-Joon and Hyun-Soo swiftly distributed the potions among the team, ensuring each member had what they needed.

The healer immediately began tending to the wounded, offering healing magic and administering potions to alleviate their injuries. In the midst of her duties, the healer also took a moment to replenish herself with a much-needed potion.

The leader then spoke again "We will rest here for another one to two hours before proceeding to the boss's lair."

The words resonated with a mix of relief and weariness among the team. They all lowered themselves to the ground, catching their breath and allowing their bodies to recover from the grueling battle.

Suddenly another message popped up in front of Hee-Joon's eye
