Chapter 28: CH 28
Despite all of that, it barely stumbled. The rage that clouded its mind stopped it from feeling the pain, but Harry took one look at the wolf's stats and knew he was doing damage.
He fell back onto his favourite element, letting loose a fiery clawed hand that ripped downwards along the creature's cheek as he simultaneously stepped under its flailing arms to shoot a wind-powered elbow upward into its abdomen, knocking it off balance, before rolling out of it's range and sending a final earth spike strike towards the spine. The spike pierced right through, and this time, under Harry's command, held its shape.
Harry saw no reason to stop there. He was now the predator and his predator was now the prey. His hand arced down into landing another palm heel onto the bridge of its nose, incapacitating its smelling capabilities. The spikes then melted away, and the wolf crumpled to the floor.
He then quickly backed off to a safer distance, planning to try out an idea he had just thought of. He let most of what was left of his mana out of his body and concentrated it all around the werewolf that was trying to get onto his feet. Then he pressed.
The werewolf stopped, unable to move as the very water in its blood froze.
Under Harry's next command, dozens of thin earthly needles erupted from the ground and punctured the werewolf's abdomen in every possible direction, almost killing him.
Almost.
Harry watched horrified through his observe window as the werewolf pulled free of its piercing bonds, healing slowly but surely, and start walking towards Harry. There was madness in its eyes.
Panic started to set into Harry. His own mana was too low to do any big attacks, and his injuries were starting to catch up with him, making him feel light headed.

MP-45/1100
'Well. Looks like this is it.' Harry thought, finally feeling the resignation seep in as he continued on his train of thought, 'At least I'll get to see mum and dad. Maybe they'll even teach me some-'
Harry's thoughts suddenly ground to a halt. Almost as if on its own, his mouth completed his thought.
"Wand magic." Harry whispered to himself, and hope arose again.
"Inventory," he said and pulled out the Riddler's wand, pointing it at the limping werewolf that was slowly gaining on him. With no idea what to say or do, Harry simply pushed his own mana into the wand and desperately hoped for something that would stop the wolf.
An almost invisible wave rippled through the air and struck the werewolf.
It was as if an invisible sword slashed into the flesh of the werewolf's chest, causing blood to spurt out like a fountain. It fell onto the floor, bleeding and defeated.
A hysterical laugh ripped through Harry's throat as he fell onto his knees.

Harry suddenly felt himself surrounded by a veil of light and all his injuries and wounds disappeared. Feeling the breath settling back into his lungs, Harry marveled at the amount of stats he had now. His new title was pretty amazing too, but he hoped it wouldn't see much use.
One thing was for sure. He really needed to learn to be less reckless. This fight was to close for comfort.
Harry fell onto his back and lay there. From the horizon far hidden behind the trees, the first rays of sunlight filtered through and a ray of sunlight fell and shone across his face. He had been resting there for just a few seconds when his attention was drawn by a groan towards his left.
'Shouldn't it be dead by now?' Harry wondered as he got up to his feet and turned towards where the wolf lay, only to see the form of a man lying where it was. Wondering where he came from and where the wolf was, he looked around, until the fuzziness in his head cleared and he connected the dots.
The beast was a werewolf. The man was the wolf.
