Chapter 578 Victor Vs Curtin

Everything in this place thought him to be food. Even the trees were no exception. The only thing he could was run or hide, and sometimes, even the hiding spot was just another creature in hiding. 

This one time he rushed to hide in a cave only to discover that the cave had a peculiar smell. Luckily for him, he recognized that the stalactites and stalagmites within the cave were actually teeth. 

It was only by his quick reflexes did he dived out of the mouth before it would swallow him up forever. 

And another time, he wanted to get water to drink, only to squat by the river and notice that the river seemed to be alive, rising up to face him. 

All he could do was run and run. 

It was within a short period of time that Victor started to really hate this place. He understood firsthand why it was named imperilment.

Survival of the fittest was not a rule here, it was a way of life. 

Each creature was evolved to maximize available nutrients and then kill another for its own survival as soon as it got. There was really no discrimination in this place. Everything that had life and in some cases those like rocks that did not were all food. 

Victor\'s look was rough. His clothes were tattered except for his armor that covered his chest. 

Somehow, this armor was still intact. 

What Victor did not know was that without this armor, he would have died a long time ago. after all, there were many things in this place that his sharp senses were just too dull to have noticed, but the armor twerked by Lenny to preserve his life had been working. 

In his tattered state, he finally sat behind a tree for a bit of an opportunity to breathe. 

His mind was tensed and the continuous presence of danger made his brain feel very tired. 

He could not help but curse at Lenny for throwing him into Imperilment. 

However, even though he cursed at Lenny, he was still thankful that he was not at the site of Lenny and Riff\'s battle. After all, he was very far away and he could still feel and hear the tremor from the ground. 

Many of the creatures in imperilment left their natural territory in fear of that battle. Victor knew that his presence there would only be a burden. 

Besides, there were battles in which the fighters had not chosen to stand and fight the other fighters but immediately attacked the contestant for position of Alpha. After all, kill one, and the other follows along.

Victor rested and for a full five minutes, he was surprised to see that nothing attempted to kill him. 

This was an entirely fresh feeling in this place. A feeling that he never believed that he could enjoy in this place. 

However, just when he thought that he would sink further into the tree bark that he used as a pillow, he suddenly felt the arrival of a blade for his neck. 

This feeling, it was much more different from the hunger for food that he felt from the creatures of Imperilment. 

"Someone is trying to assassinate me!" Victor thought to himself as he dived out of the way, rolling to the side. 

Fortunately, he had been right as obsidian claws landed right where his neck should have been against the tree. 

Victor had rolled over in time, but he had still caught sight of the person\'s silhouette before the person had dived out of the way and into hiding in the shadows. 

Victor raised his head and chuckled a bit, "Come on brother! You don\'t actually believe that I don\'t know it\'s you, right? After all, I can feel your killing intent on me." 

As Victor said this, he looked around the place. His eyes seemed to be searching for the person that wanted to kill him.

However, the attack came once more and he dived out of the way. 

This time around, he picked a stone from the ground and threw it into the shadow. 

Immediately he heard someone cause as he dodged out of the way. 

Victor chuckled lightly. 

What he had thrown at Curtin was not an ordinary stone. 

It was actually an insect-like creature that had been folded into a rock.

The moment it got to Curtain, it unfolded itself and attacked. This creature, Victor had met a bunch of them before and his experience with them had not been a light one. 

Curtin had no choice but to jump out of his hiding spot. 

"little brother... Hehehehe!" Curtin chuckled eerily, "I am really impressed. In such a dangerous place, you have managed to somehow still preserve your life. You are really tougher than I ever gave you credit for, or..." Curtin squint his eyes, "...you have always been the threat that I always knew that you would be.

As if having your mother be our father\'s favorite was not enough, you also had to be born in this world with your special bloodline. Why can\'t you just die and let me have my peace? Let me have my birthright! Let me become ALPHA!" 

"Birthright? Are you such a fool? Just because you happened to touch the earth from your mother\'s waist before the rest of us does not make the position of Alpha of the pack your freaking right!" 

"Oh really! then let\'s see for ourselves who is more qualified!" As Curtain said this, his transformation had already started. 

He was shifting into his Werewolf form.

"Do you know that this place called Imperilment was once my home? My mother, knowing that I would have to compete against the rest of my siblings for my birthright spared no expense at my training. 

I was brought to Imperilment to train and understand the foundations of the world while I was only ten years old..."
