Raising A Few Wives in a Beast Apocalypse

An hour later.....

"Everyone should have rested enough right?, so let's continue" Muku said.

They had been taking a break on the second floor. Though nobody was really too tired, they knew floor one was going to be the big fight so they needed to be in peak condition.

On the stairs, Muku poked his head out to survey the situation. That's when he noticed it, a beast of a killer dog. The killer dogs they had fought before were beasts but the one in his sight was a beast even among them.

Two and a half metres while standing on all fours. Whole back covered in spikes. Huge bulldog like head, mouth filled with razor sharp teeth. Pitch black skin unable to hide the bulging muscles. Half a meter long front claws on it's bear like paw. The aura It was releasing was greater than the three mid stage Rank Ones from before combined. Without a doubt It was a peak stage Rank One beast. And it was gulping down a dead body of a student.

Muku quickly pulled his head back before it sensed him. Then pushed back Jade's head that was about to poke out and look at the dog. She of course wasn't happy about this but seeing the seriousness on his face didn't say anything. This monster was likely the one that destroyed the school gate.

"There's a peak stage Rank One killer dog there. We might have to fight that one together, even Emily... though try not to burn the building. Luckily for us it seems to be the lazy type and didn't go up the floors itself having the food brought down to it, otherwise we would have died before even reaching Rank One. Anyway, me and Jade will be the vanguard, Layla and Chloe will support us from the back group. If the situation seems to be getting out of hand, that's when you step in Emily. Now everyone gets ready". Muku quickly gave out his orders before anyone could say anything and quickly got into action.

He charged forward, Jade beside, the rest following a few metres back.

Woosh!×4

The dog seemed to have already sensed them and was playing the fool. It had already finished it's meal and quickly sent out some claws.

"Expected it". Muku said with a smile as he deployed the force field. He like he said expected the attack.

Boom!×4

But what he didn't expect was how the force from the claws would push him back for a whole two metres. As well as take a huge chunk of his mana away. Just like that, a quarter of his mana was gone.

"Damn, what power, Jade don't play around this time, if you are hit even once you will die.". Muku said with a serious expression as soon as he stopped being pushed back.

"You think I'd let myself get hit after what I just saw?, you know what, whatever, let me show you what I can do. Ahh!". Jade replied him before using her stun attack and charging at the killer dog boss.

Clang! Pwak!

Surprisingly the dog wasn't stunned as Jade thought it would be and even more surprisingly it managed to react fast enough to block Jade's high speed attack. It even counter attacked and slapped at Jade with its other paw.

Luckily Layla reacted in time and made ice spikes appear from the ground and block the paws path to Jade. Sadly they weren't strong enough to stop it, but luckily it was slower down enough enough for Jade to manage to get out of the way.

"Growl!". Seeing it's attack impeded, the dog growled lookin I'm Layla's direction who couldn't help but gulp down some saliva due to nervousness after being looked at by the beast with it's blood red eyes full of killing intent.

"You idiot, didn't I tell you to not get cocky!?. You should thank Layla or you might have had one less life right now" Muku shouted at Jade but his eyes never left the dog that was staring them down. Although he was shouting at them it was more to keep her grounded than anything as even he didn't expect the beast to be so strong. It literally blocked an attack he could barely see and seems to have shrugged off Jade's newly discovered stun ability, though the latter might be because Jade didn't know up to what stage from herself it affected.

"Now isn't the time, come up with a plan already!" Jade shouted back, she could sense that although he shouted at her there was no blame in his voice.

"Tsk, I why don't you come up with one, why did I even bother teaching you when you can't even think for yourself then?" Muku said back though in his mind he was thinking of what he could do to get out of the situation.

"Growl!"

But the killer dog boss didn't give him the time as it growled as it charged forward. He as the man of the group, also as the teacher and also as the only one with a defensive skill at the moment ran to meet it head on. He tried what he did with the last dog he fought. Two swords in hand aimed at the dog's head from above after he jumped up under the boost of his weak ass telekinesis that couldn't affect anything but him yet.

Clang×2

Which were blocked as expected, and again a third sword came aiming at the dog's open mouth.

Clang! Pwak!

But different from the previous script. The dog killer dog boss managed to bite down on the sword and break it with its teeth.

"Well damn!. Jade!". Muku screamed, his cool new finishing move was defeated even before he named it.

Woosh!

Hearing her name, cat girl Jade, used her "high quick" skill and exploded forward, her claws aiming for the dog's gut. When she was about to slice it open, the killer dog boss's muscle on the area tensed and her attack only managed to leave five shallow cuts.

"Damn is true". Jade said as she and Muku quickly stepped back from the dog completely out of options at this point. They had basically given it all they had.

Crack!

But it seemed both of them and the dog had forgotten that they had some backup. Chloe with her low presence made her move. Blue lightning shot out from her hand, flew in-between Muku and Jade and hit the KDB's head.

(A/N : Killer Dog Boss = KDB)

It didn't have time to react before it was hit, though unless it could have dodged. There was nothing else it could have done to an energy attack as a physical type beast. It's body started spasming a bit while it tried to suppress it.

"Now!" Chloe shouted, getting Muku and Jade out of their shocked state. This was the first time they had seen Chloe act to actually attack after all.

Not wasting time, Chloe uses her "high quick" again and this time aimed at the dog's front leg. It tried to move out of the way but the spasms made it a tad too slow nor able to properly tense up it's muscles and so...

Slash!

Howl!

It's leg was cleanly cut off, prompting a loud cry of pain from it. Not giving it time to recover Muku sent three flying swords at its head. The dog looked at the swords approach with a look of despair in it's eyes as it knew it could at best stop one in the situation with its mouth. Worse yet none were aiming at its mouth.

Stab×3

All three swords stabbed into its skull killing it off instantly.

[95 kills left...] (Muku)

[97 kills left...] (Jade)

[99 kills left...] (Chloe)

"Huff!!, it's finally over, Jade was that exciting enough for you?" Muku huffed in relief and couldn't help but taunt Jade as he set on the floor, more mentally tired than physically as he still had at least half of his mana left.

"Hmph!, No not at all, what's so fun about a beast I likely wouldn't be able to kill by myself". Jade replied also slumping down to the floor.

The rest did the same as they laughed at Jade's reply. This fight drained everyone mentally no matter how small the part they took in the fight. They have never felt so much I danger before, they all knew that one wrong move could have ended in someone dying after all.

"I just hope there is no other beast like it close by". Jade said again.

"Brat!, are you trying to jinx it!?". Muku roared, while the girls all laughed at his reaction.
