Wenlong had never been so angry. He saw that next to the dead wild boar king was a person and a cat.

The person was Levi, who wielded a large bird sword with a fire attribute, and the cat was naturally the white Melynx from the same village as Wenlong.

From the current situation, it was clear that Levi's slender sword was embedded in the wild boar king's neck, obviously claiming it as his own prey.

"Hey! That's our prey, what are you doing standing there? Meow!" Seeing this, Wenlong expressed strong protest.

"Hey, isn't that Wenlong? Meow!" Seeing Wenlong, White Fur had a smug smile, "What do you mean 'your prey'? This wild boar king was just killed by my master, Levi! Meow!"

"That's one we had already crippled!" Wenlong said, "And we were the ones who took the mission first. You shouldn't have interfered with our prey before we gave up the mission!"

"Unlucky for you, when we got here, there was no one around this wild boar king. What proof do you have that this wild boar is your prey? Meow!" White Fur continued.

As White Fur said this, Levi walked to the wild boar's body and removed the two light bone knives from its back.

"The proof is this, but it's not very useful, hm." Levi threw the two light bone knives on the ground, then drew his sword and stabbed it into the two wounds previously caused by the light bone knives!

Because of the sword's insertion, the two wounds on the wild boar's back changed shape, looking like they were caused by a sword.

"Meow, you... were planning to steal our prey from the start?"

"Calling it stealing is a bit harsh," this time it was Levi, who wielded the large bird sword, "It's because you lack the ability that I helped you. And even if you insist this prey is yours, it's useless without proof!"

Although Wenlong wanted to argue, "Isn't it because you destroyed the evidence?" he swallowed the words at the last moment.

There's a saying, "You can't wake a person who's pretending to sleep." Clearly, Levi's act of removing the two light bone knives from the wild boar king's back and then stabbing it with his sword was a blatant attempt to destroy the evidence that the wild boar king was Wenlong and Catherine's prey.

So, in this situation, arguing was meaningless.

"You two, you've really made me angry!" Wenlong muttered to himself, his fur standing on end, clearly extremely angry. His claws extended from his paw pads, ready for battle.

"Ha ha ha, are you still trying to bluff? I won't be scared by you anymore!" Seeing Wenlong's battle stance, Levi sneered, "I've already investigated your records at the Hunter's Guild. You're just a newly promoted one-star silver hunter. You're wearing a set of equipment we've never seen before, pretending to be a legendary hunter. It's just a joke!"

"That's right, master. We are the strongest hunter team in Mirard Village. You will surely become a legendary hunter in the future!" White Fur chimed in.

At this moment, Wenlong almost couldn't resist slapping White Fur. But Catherine's arms tightly held him from behind.

"Mr. Cat... It's all my fault. If I were stronger, you wouldn't have to save me today... and the prey wouldn't have been taken away..." Catherine said apologetically.

"Woman, it's not your fault, it's the fault of these shameless people! We are partners, and I've never heard of a hunter who values prey more than their partner!" Wenlong said firmly to Catherine, "But if you really feel guilty, then you should work harder to improve yourself! And I will train you more strictly!"

"Mr. Cat... I will, I will work harder!" Catherine was moved by Wenlong's words.

Wenlong had also calmed down a bit.

Wenlong understood that if he directly confronted White Fur and Levi now, it would be disadvantageous for him.

He had just been through a fierce battle, and his stamina was greatly depleted. Catherine, who was with him, had little combat experience. Although she was strong, her speed was too slow, and she probably wouldn't even touch the other side.

"Be patient, Wenlong, be patient. You've known White Fur's despicable nature for a long time... there's no need to get so angry... and the Hunter's Guild punishes hunters for fighting each other severely. They are clearly prepared and are trying to provoke us... so we shouldn't engage them at the time and place they want..." Wenlong said to himself, suppressing his urge to act.

In fact, Wenlong had hunted various powerful ancient dragons in the game, and the materials from a mere wild boar king were not something he cared about. What truly made him angry was that White Fur, a Melynx from the same village as him, treated him like this.

"Meow, White Fur! You used to just annoy me, but this time you've really made me angry!"

"Oh? What can you do about it? Meow!" White Fur laughed, "Your master is just a one-star hunter, while mine is a two-star hunter. You can't deny the difference, can you? We Melynx choose a powerful master and cling to their legs to rise to success! But you chose a weak woman from the start, so you have no future!"

"But, my master is very kind, meow!" White Fur continued, "Wenlong, if you're willing to abandon that woman and join my master, he can give you a position second only to mine, meow!"

"Hmph, hahaha... hahaha..." Wenlong first sneered, then burst into uncontrollable laughter.

"Truly laughable, to get so much pleasure from being a human's pet!" Wenlong laughed, "This woman isn't my master; I'm her hunting partner. Don't compare me to you, who just clings to others' legs!"

"You... " Wenlong's words hit White Fur's weakness, leaving him speechless.

Wenlong continued, "I can warn you, although my partner's current strength isn't much, her future potential is limitless. You will pay for your actions today!"
