My Werewolf System

Chapter 1170  A Wicked Smell

A few days had passed since the large celebration event had occurred. It was meant to be a peaceful period for the group; they weren’t under any attack, and truthfully, it wasn’t as if they were at war with any of the Kings for a change.

The issue was the constant tension in the air, almost as if anything was going to happen at any second, which kept them on their toes. Gary still hadn’t fully committed to making a decision of joining the Altered Hunters or trying to attack Lupus first.

Instead, his plan was to get information from Innu and Blake before anything, and maybe the Lupus Gang itself by heading to the city. The main issue was the smell. Although there would be some of those that needed to apply more deodorant than others when waking up, or some were lucky enough to apply none at all, this wouldn’t matter.

It wasn’t enough to cover up the inherent smell of another Werewolf. There was something about the smell that irritated the others, and particularly if they were from another pack.

Gary had felt it in his nose even before his system message had notified him of the other members. So, they decided to leave things to Tom. The smartest person that Gary knew, at least directly.

Heading to the research lab that had been funded for him by Kai, Gary had frequently been visiting, and it wasn’t just him, but Kai as well.

“I’ve tested it on a number of dogs, and I’m very confident that this one should work,” Tom said as he handed over a black glass aftershave bottle with a golden top. Even the simplest of things, Kai insisted on always using the gang’s colors.

Gary was somewhat used to this now.

“Are you saying I’m a dog?” Gary said as he looked at the bottle. “I’m just kidding, that’s why we have Kai here as well, right?”

“Just put on the spray,” Kai grunted.

Listening, Gary put on the spray as directed by Tom, in a cross-like shape, spraying three times across his body. Once that was done, it was time to bring in the sniffer, which was Kai himself.

He sniffed the air and then got closer and closer to Gary. “I think…it works,” Kai said. “You’ve not masked the smell, but you’ve made him smell…”

“Human?” Tom answered. “Honestly, this was quite a bit easier than the Altered research we do, so I was quite confident that I would be able to create something, but I do have to warn you. That spray only lasts a maximum of three hours, and during those three hours, the power of the spray will wear off.

“Right now, Kai can’t smell you, but in an hour or so, if he got that close, he might. You can use a few extra sprays if you want to, but it might start to get suspicious if you were just doing that out in the open, but it’s up to you.”

Gary looked at it in awe, but it also made him gulp at the thought. It was his own plan, but to go in undercover? It wasn’t the same as when he went into the tier four city, this was completely different.

“Alright, so it looks like we have that part done,” Kai said, rubbing his hands together and making sure he had everything he needed as if he was ready to go somewhere. “We should still wait a few days until you turn Xin into your Luna, and then we can figure out what we’re doing with Ruin city.”

“Let Tom make some more of those things.”

“Where are you going?” Gary asked.

“Me, I’m paying a quick visit to Notsburg, I’m getting no answer from Midwak, and no one can properly check up on him for some reason. I’m just a little worried, that’s all. I’ll be back today, it should be a quick visit… you just rest up, or prepare for what comes next, it’s up to you.”

Others in the Howlers group were left to their own devices as they relaxed during their downtime. In particular, Olivia and Marie. Today it was a shopping spree day, and in particular, Olivia was picking out clothes for Marie in order for a fresh start.

The night sky was out, and the two of them were walking with a number of large shopping bags. A large number of people were staring at them, not just due to how many shopping bags they bought, but because Olivia’s body always seemed to turn heads.

“Man, how much did they buy, are they like royalty or something?”

“Or she must have married a rich husband, right?”

Immediately, Olivia turned her head straight at the boys talking; they were quite a distance away, and it made them jump.

“Stupid boys, and what’s the matter with you, you don’t like going out with me?” Olivia asked.

“It’s not that, I actually had a really good time today,” Marie replied.

“It’s just that you wish it was with Gary.”

Marie’s face went red with embarrassment. “Did everyone know I liked him?”

“If they didn’t, they definitely did after you stormed out of that room,” Olivia answered.

The two continued to walk, and there was one thing Marie knew, she couldn’t stay like this forever. With everything, though, it was just going to take some time.

As the two continued to walk down the streets, they both glanced at each other. “So what do you want to do?”

“I feel like blowing off some steam,” Marie said. “We can do this.”

Hearing these words, Olivia smiled, and the two of them had taken a right, venturing into a dark alleyway between several restaurants. As they continued to walk, they eventually stopped.

“We know you have been following us for a while, you can come out!” Olivia shouted.

Immediately, four men appeared right in front of them; they were dressed in all black, all of them having black hairstyles, and some even wearing sunglasses despite it being nighttime.

Immediately, Olivia placed her hands to her side. “Marie, now they’re close, you can smell them, right, you remember this smell.”

“I do!” Marie said.

The men in black opened their mouths, as their teeth started to elongate and their eyes started to glow red.

“They’re vampires!”
