ch2 saving the humans

my plan is really simple, i hunt some wild animals and then trade for the humans with the wolves.

thankfully i was already prepared for the situation where i need to barter with those wind wolves, i have made a small cave in the mountain, filled it with meat, and then covered it with large boulders, now i just have to get through these boulders, uh oh, the boulders are more sturdy than expected, and the battlefield is almost silent, i have to be fast.

as i manage to break through the boulders the sounds of battle disappear, so i take as much meat as i can hold and fly off to where the wolves are howling.

as i arrive i look around and see a group of ten humans, seven of them are surrounded by wolves, but three of them are being eaten by the wolf king, the seven are really lucky, because the wolves always play with their food, only the wolf king has some manners, if you call "kill on sight" manners.

as i appear all of the wolves look at me, the wolf king even growls at me, as i get closer to the wolf king i realize that the wolves are pretty small, the humans too, no, it is just that i have grown after eating the plants.

as the wolf king gets ready to attack i show the meat in my claws and bow down with my face on the ground, upon seeing this the wolf king was happy, to see a larger creature bow to a smaller one was near impossible, but the wolf king did it, causing his ego to grow to near impossible levels, putting his front paw on my head triumphantly and howling, if it was not for the humans i would not do this.

next, i look at the humans, put the meat in my claws on the ground, and growled, with the meaning of saying "trade", thankfully after eating the plants that look like me, i managed to obtain the ability to put meaning behind my growls, so the wolf king knew what i meant.

the wolf king growled "not enough" in wolf language, so the humans only heard growls from our conversation.

"i have more, follow the trail" i growled as i looked at the trail of meat i left behind leading to the cave.

"good, you can take the humans" the wolf king growled at me before howling to the pack and rushing after the trail with the whole pack behind him.

the reason for this trust is that i bowed down to the wolf king, in this forest bowing down means you will not betray, or else you will be hunted down by the other party, and since we already had a deal about not harming the other party i was pretty trustworthy.

because the wolves were still near i put one of the humans the wolf king was eating in my mouth, it only took one bite, which scared the other humans, as the wolves saw me "eat" the human they left, chasing the rest of the pack in the hopes of obtaining some of the meat i traded with the wolf king.

when the wolves had left i spit the human back out with a disgusted expression, making the humans confused thinking "why did it spit the person it ate back out?".

while they were thinking i moved closer to the seven living humans, leaving the three "wolf king chew toys" behind, this frightened the humans because they thought i was going to attack them.

as i was observing the humans i realized that they looked like soldiers, no they were soldiers, looking at their equipment, i could not see a lot of weapons, only rations and small arms, which confused me.

as i realized the humans were shaking i also saw their wounds, the wounds were not fatal, but very painful, so i used one of my new abilities i gained after eating the plants that look like me.

as a tiny green flame came out of my mouth the soldiers looked at the person who the flame was aimed at with fear, as the flame came into contact with the person, instead of burning, their wounds began to close painlessly, shocking the others.

as soon as they realised what happened more green flames flew at the others, healing them too.

"escape, now, not safe" i growled surprising the humans, thankfully they understood and prepared to leave.

"thank you, we will not forget this." the humans said before they left, leaving me alone again.

before i left the area i made sure to burn everything in the area, removing all traces of humans, then i chased the humans, burning everything in the path they took, hiding the fact that the humans left the forest by burning the area, removing the proof that the humans had ever stepped foot in the forest.

after that i went back to the cave i gave to the wolves, upon seeing me the wolf king growled "why are you here" at me.

"it was fun, thank you" i growled, to the wolves it seems that i enjoy playing with my food, just like them, but in reality i was thankful for being able to meet a human again, but that is something i will never tell them.

then i went back to my normal life, for a long time nothing happened, a suspicious amount of nothing happened, not even a single animal did something, wait, that is weird, normally i would at least hear a bird or two, but now, nothing.

as i continued walking around the forest looking around for information, i saw something, a bright light shining from the forest i had burned to hide the humans, so i ran over to the burnt forest, and there i saw something that seemed impossible, yet it was right in front of me, a giant red skinned human with large wings, horns and even long sharp claws.
