Shiva traveled through the forest. On his mind still the shouts and crying of the woman he ate only few hours ago. But he decided not to think about it more, that is his new life and he has to accept it. Great Sage made sure that all the grief and disgust for himself were deleted.
He decided that he will head north to the Ogre Village that Veldora told him about in one of his stories. Having nowhere else to go, Shiva wants to at least check it out. After some time of walking he smells something, smell of blood. Shiva jumps up on the trees and sneaks closer to the source of it while hiding himself in the trees.
There he sees something that could described as a small battlefield or failed hunting. Among the trees, on the ground lay bodies of small, green creatures that are wearing clothing that looks like scavenged human one. Next to them also are laying old, rusted swords and spears that were also probably taken from humans. He could jump down and take what he can but there is something guarding those bodies or searching something among the corpse...
There are three big wolves, their fur is grey and every one of them is bigger then those green, humanoid creatures. Two of them sniff around the battlefield while the other now is eating a hand of those creatures that Shiva will call from now one, goblins. Because they resemble them goblins from all those games and books.
Shiva looks down at them and thinks what should he do. He could just go away and don't look for any problems or he could kill those wolves, eat them and use their fur for some kind of coat. It can get cold at nights and Shiva wants to hide his other pair of hands as someone might attack him, thinking he is some rare and valuable creature or something.
As he is thinking he hears that one of those wolves appered under his tree sniffing around. Wolf found something, a smelly smell. Smell of blood but also there is an aura around the smell. Wolf slowly looks up following the smell until giant shadow falls down on the wolf. As Shiva falls down on the wolf, it's ribs are broken due to Shiva's weight. Before wolf could make it out from the shock and confusion, Shiva gripped it's head and slicked wolf's neck with his sharp fingernails.
Shiva doesn't have much time before he hears like something is jumping from behind him. He quickly tuns around and catches other's wolf jaws. He placed one hand on the upper jaw and second on the lower jaw before pulling towards different direction. Wolf knowing what is coming tries to pull back, wiggle his way out and when he sees that Shiva is just too strong wolf just starts to scrape at him with his claws. But they also do nothing to Shiva's thick skin and wolf finally feels the pain from one's jaw being broken. Shiva not letting wolf suffer long, breaks wolf's neck.
The last wolf heard the second one's whimpers and a neck breaking. The last wolf slowly stands up and heads towards the direction from the sound came. When he is there he sees bodies of his comrades and in panic begins to looks around after the killer. Then, wolf sees something weird. Four fingernails covered in blood are hanging in the air. At first wolf doesn't react but quickly pulls things together, it's an human art that allows to become invisible!
Wolf turns to escape but is quickly caught in red thread and his snout is closed by it. Shiva drops the art called 'Stealth' and walks up to the wolf. He looks at his blood covered nails.
"Huh...It's supposed to make everything on me invisible...Maybe I need to practice it..."
Wolf tries to wiggle itself out from the bindings but Shiva sighs before with one quick movement of his upper hand, he slices wolf's neck. Next hour or more, Shiva used to skin the wolves using a sword he took from the goblin corpses and then he used some thread skills to patch it up. Shiva using two wolf pelts made a coat that was long and most importantly could hide his second pair of hands. It was crude made and had some blood and vines on it's under side but it's better then nothing.
