Although he forgot that before, when he had the chance, after beating the crap out of so of them, Ryan tad one dire wolf, he would never say that out loud, but those monsters were too cool. Of all the monsters he had tad before, they were by far the most aweso, and their strength was also impressive.
"You said that you didn't like animals," Alissa frowned. "I guess that was just you being bashful in your own weird way."
It wasn't a matter of liking or disliking. Ryan just never wanted pets because he didn't think they deserve to be caged. As for the tad dire wolf, he was cool, but he was a cool tool for battle. That being said, Ryan felt a bit conflicted in thinking like that. He had bidden their will with magic, but he could feel the connection between them, so at the very least, Ryan had to treat them like real partners. After all, they will never betray him.
"All right, boy," Ryan said. "Show what you can do."
While Alissa was recovering, Ryan equipped his shield and gave the order for the dire wolf to use Ice Arrow. As expected, the attacks couldn't surpass the shield's defenses, but the weight of every projectile managed to push him back several centiters. At the sa ti, the dire wolf was suffering so damage and training its Pain Resistance.
"For the ti being, your job will be to train Dash and Ice Arrow," Ryan declared. "When you feel hungry, you can eat them."
Alissa was finally ready to move on, and since there wasn't a dungeon nearby in which the dire wolf could guard, it was the best order Ryan could give him. Taking him with them wasn't going to help in the fight against the Fenrir's after all.
"Are you sure you don't want even a single dragon heart?" Alissa asked.
"I want, but I don't want to gain anything I don't deserve," Ryan said.
Alissa shrugged and then marched toward North, they had already entered the dire wolves' territory, so there was no need to fly. Besides, that would reveal their approach. Although Alissa had so skill that could make her completely undetectable, it wasn't like she could maintain that state forever. She needed mana and concentration, and she lacked the ability to stay concentrated for long periods.
"As I expected, this bow isn't powerful enough to endure your power. The other one is probably fifty percent better and can show a better performance."
"This isn't for sale," Ryan declared.
"How about two dragon hearts for it?" Alissa asked.
"You are pretty dumb, aren't you?" Ryan asked.
" Why do you think that?" Alissa clenched her fist and then asked.
"Although dragon hearts are useful and they make stronger, I can't attack with dragon hearts alone," Ryan said. "I can only show the power of my status with a decent weapon. Even if you can destroy a mountain with a single punch, it is stupid to do so when you can do the sa thing by using a weapon and spending only half of the energy."
It seed logical for Ryan, but for soone like Alissa, who could transform into a dragon and make several of them run away just with her presence alone, the sa thing couldn't be said. Regardless, even though they advanced pretty close to Lake Ontario, they never found a single galodon. Ryan thought of asking Alissa to move away a little bit, but that wouldn't change anything since he didn't have the power to slay them in just a few monts.
Although the galodons avoided Alissa's presence, the dire wolves at so point stopped doing that probably because Ryan and Alissa were getting closer to their destination.
Congratulations! The skill Cold Resistance has leveled up.

You obtained 01 status point.
"Crap this is getting pretty intense," Ryan muttered while trying to warm his chest with his arms. "I shouldn't have left the salamander behind."
"Or maybe you should have brought so proper clothes," Alissa said. "Anyway, it looks like things will get even colder from now on."
Although Alissa was wearing so proper thick winter clothes, she looked way too comfortable. Most likely, the power she received from Orgar made her close to immune to cold. Regardless, Alissa was right because they could see so thick snow clouds a few kiloters ahead of them. That was normal in that kind of environnt. What wasn't normal was the fact that the clouds weren't moving as they should. They were just moving in circles
"It looks like Alissa's actions made all the dragons in the area wary of her. According to Mark, the number of dragons in this area was around one hundred, but the number of presences I feel is too low, and they are very far away."
"Hehehe, my bad," Alissa showed an embarrassed smile.
Great Ryan had co for the dragon hears, and the dragon hears weren't there anymore. That was annoying, but at least so sweety coins a new class was waiting for him, and by the look of things, the class he will get in the dire wolves' dungeon was bound to be aweso.
"We just crossed the border," Alissa said. "The dungeon is in a place called Kemptville."
"Not anymore, now whatever was there beca a mountain of snow," Ryan said. "Anyway why are you telling that?"
"Just saying what Mark said to since you left without asking anything," Alissa shrugged. "You need to know more about the places you are going to fight."
"How is that knowledge going to help you?" Ryan asked.
"Maybe not today but one day I will," Alissa frowned.
Alissa was probably trying to develop so habits to impress her soldiers, and while that was admirable, Ryan couldn't help but wonder why she was trying to look like a proper leader in front of him.
