I Became the Demon King of Lust

As soon as the Great Wolf woke up, it immediately looked around to confirm that there were no other enemies before using its speed to outrun Blaze.

When it stopped, it had already created a good amount of distance between the two of them.

This Great Wolf wasn't just strong based on that speed, but also intelligent since it knew to create space right away.

It didn't let itself fall into the trap of thinking that there was only a single enemy and attacking only to be ambushed. It knew that by acting rashly, it would give the enemy an opportunity against it.

So it calmly retreated, creating enough distance so that it could scope out the situation.

After it looked around the area for a bit, the Great Wolf turned its attention back to Blaze who was still charging at it.

Seeing this, the Great Wolf couldn't stop its wolf lips from curling into a faint smile.

"This human wants to fight me head on without any help? What a fool."

That was what the Great Wolf thought before suddenly dashing forward with its great speed.

Blaze was barely able to keep up with the Great Wolf as it charged over at him.

At the very last second, he suddenly activated his flame armour.

The Great Wolf that had been about to bite down on Blaze's shoulder suddenly stopped itself. Then all of a sudden, it jumped back to create space between the two of them once more.

Blaze let out a sigh of relief since he knew that he wouldn't have gotten out of it unhurt if the Great Wolf had decided to go through with biting him.

He was glad that the Great Wolf wasn't willing to hurt itself to also hurt him.

But that was only a second of pause before Blaze charged at the Great Wolf once again while shouting, "Come and get it!"

As he charged, he even summoned out a flame sword and flame shield.

The Great Wolf no longer attacked Blaze after seeing this and instead ran around the room, almost as if it was kiting Blaze.

"This human, it won't be able to use this ability forever. The moment that it's gone is the moment that this human dies."

The Great Wolf was planning on using its speed to outrun Blaze and wear him down.

It knew that as long as Blaze didn't have this flame armour, it would be able to take him down easily with the difference in speed and power.

So the Great Wolf's plan was to tire Blaze out before making its move.

Blaze just went along with it and the two of them ran all over the room.

With how it was going, it didn't seem like this was going to end any time soon.

That was until the Great Wolf suddenly realized something…

It was surrounded by flames.

It had been so focused on Blaze and how it would be able to easily take him down after he ran out of energy that it hadn't been paying attention to the other thing that Blaze had been doing.

As Blaze had been running around, flames were left behind by him that now filled the room.

Since they had been running all over, the room was now completely covered in flames except for the one area that the two of them were in.

The Great Wolf realized that it had been completely fooled and was now trapped by Blaze's flames.

If it wanted to run, it would have to dash through those flames and it could tell that it wouldn't get out of this place unscathed if that happened…

But these flames kept burning like this, they had to be feeding on something.

As soon as it realized this, the Great Wolf turned to Blaze.

"This human, if I take him out…then would the flames go out?"

While it wasn't a proper idea, it was still better than nothing. At this point, the Great Wolf was desperate to find any solution to this problem.

At the same time, it would be able to take care of this human that had intruded on its home.

So the Great Wolf charged at Blaze.

As the Great Wolf charged…Blaze actually ran out of power and the flame armour around him collapsed.

The Great Wolf's guesses were right, the flames that were burning around them were fueled by Blaze's magic power. As long as he supplied them with mana, they would keep burning.

He was focused on maintaining these flames that he ran out of mana for his own armour, which was why it collapsed.

Seeing this, the Great Wolf saw a chance and dashed even faster at Blaze.

Blaze knew that he was in a pinch, but he was completely out of energy.

Even if he wanted to dodge, it was impossible for him to dodge at this point.

So all he could do was sit there and watch as the Great Wolf approached.

The distance between him and the Great Wolf wasn't that great since there was only so much space that he could leave with the flames. In a matter of seconds, the Great Wolf would be on him and would be biting into him.

But Blaze didn't seem worried at all as he sat there looking up at the Great Wolf.

Seeing him acting this way, the Great Wolf couldn't help feeling a bad premonition.

Like there was something wrong…

But the Great Wolf didn't have any other choice since it wouldn't be able to escape this place unless it took down Blaze.

So it could only commit to the choices that it had made.

The Great Wolf appeared right in front of Blaze and was about to clench down with its outstretched jaws…

But then before it could, there was a wind barrier that appeared in front of it.

This was a wind barrier made of many different wind blades that prevented the Great Wolf from passing through.

The wind blades cut against the Great Wolf's pelt, but there wasn't a single wind blade that was able to draw blood.

Still, this wind barrier did its job and kept the Great Wolf from reaching Blaze.
