How To Survive Part 1

On full moon night in a dark forest there a creature laying on the grass, the creature have a big body much bigger compared to an adult human side to side, it have long and strong legs capable of chasing any prey, black fur covers his body perfect for blending in the dark, its jaw is huge and in there lay dozen of sharp teeth waiting for any prey to come, huge ears seat atop of it head twitched hearing any slightest sound.

If any man ever walks to see this creature they would immediately recognise the creature and would flee for dear life and spread his horror experience to anyone for remainder that there giant creature in the forest that people believe to worship the moon. A wolf, a giant black wolf.

First Person POV

"Woooof..."

Feeling awake I subconsciously rub my face, weird there certainly something weird with my body, but, well it common to feel weird after you wake up in the morning, so I got up thinking maybe washing my face will wake me up and ready for the day.

I get up but something weird grab my attention I feel like the bed where I sleep become much harder, it feels like soil, becoming curious I open my eyes to see what going on. I can not believe what I see, a big tree standing tall in front of me.

Who the hell put giant tree in my house, wait a minute, thinking logically there no way any sane person would bring a tree to a house.

Looking around I see a sea of tree, is this some kind of prank or I just delusional. If it the first then who kind of person who pranks others to this details and on what purpose, if it the latter then it's kind of out because I don't use drugs in my life.

There other possibilities such as kidnapping but if that is why not bring me to a more place where they can secure and monitor me why must a fores? Really why. Huh... I am stuck thinking just make the matter goes worse.

The answer was simpler and scarier than I thought, it was when I want to look at my feet I meet with some fallen leaf and grasses I panicked not because of leaf and grass they are totally innocent I guarantee it, but because I can see my hand and my feet are covered in fur, I scream but what only get off my mouth is long howl, that even more raise my panic I run like a mad man I don't know where I go but I want to run from it or at least escape for a moment for the fact that I am not human anymore.

I keep running for a while until my head bumps into a tree, the tree only shook a bit but the impact on my head it causes is enormous and it hurt like a lot I thought will faint, more like please make me faint and when I wake up again, please make this only a dream and give back my precious human life, and damn it hurts physically and mentally too.

I sit down to calm myself the feel of grass and the ground make me a little calm not that I 100% calm I still want to complain a lot of things, well not like my complaints will change anything that why I must stay calm, it's weird considering a while back I was controlled by panic and run like a mad man. I am embarrassed remembering it, me a grown man running like crazy because of seeing my furry leg. I swear I will not do it again, maybe.

Now lot more calmer it's time to inspect my new body, I guess. First, my hand the priority the second best thing in my body, I look toward where the supposed hand should be but what I see are fur-covered feet, I keep my breath steady to withstand against panic attacks.

Very disappointed that I don't have any hand, I look toward where my feet is and huh.... I already expect it but seeing your expectation crushed especially in situations like this, fuck! its hurts.

After seeing my hand and feet or should I say my feet alone led me to the conclusion that I am some kind of quadrupedal animal and judging by the fur that covers my body I can tell that I am a wolf, why wolf you ask simple it is because I can howl that the easiest and the scariest part, why scary?

Because I am irregular, I notice that my vision is too high for a wolf that means my size is much bigger than a regular wolf the biggest proof is that my feet are much more longer and larger than any wolf I saw, at least that what I think.

The other irregular thing I notice is that I am alone in this forest, usually a wolf always stay with their pack and rarely leave but here I am a lone wolf in the forest and what more stupid is I howled, howling is used by the wolfs to communicate with each other the fact that I do it is like telling someone that I am here, the problem is I don't know if another wolf hears it and if they perceive me as friend or foe.

After some positive thinking and recklessness, I stand up and decide to howl again to see if another wolf hears it and hopefully respond to it. If they respond I hope we could talk a bit.

"Awoooooooo..."

When I howling I notice something that there is a moon in the sky this means right now is night time but if that so why do I see normally like when it is day time, is this my wolf body ability to see things as clear as day in the night time, if so then this is a blessing because right now if I see any danger coming I will run with full power, after all, I don't want to die.

Minutes passes I don't hear any wolf sound what I hear are a combination of wind and tree leaf sounds and sometimes I hear tiny sound that small creatures make when walking on grasses and leaf. Seems like possibly I am the only wolf in the forest or maybe this forest is too huge that can sustain several wolf pack without them socialising too much with the other wolf pack.

Whatever it is there still a bigger question here, I don't know why I am reincarnated or transmigrated to be a wolf, I don't recall committing big deed or serious crime to be reincarnated with memory intact like any other fantasy isekai Tropes genre and the lastest memory I have is I finish my work then go to sleep, I didn't die like other MC in anime, manga or a novel that I read and I didn't meet a god to receive any superpowers and cheats.

Why? That what in my thoughts why must I reincarnate or some sort to be a wolf. Well honestly a big strong wolf is not entirely bad but if this world is a fantasy world I will be dead in no time, why I must become the hunted and not the hunter, why?

Seriously why? I too want to be a cool handsome dude that has a big harem and easy-going life. For now let alone have harem I can't even talk to a human or even worse another wolf.

I am not human anymore or more worse I am not monkey anymore. Well complaining alone certainly does not change my current situation but at least it unleashed my big frustration.

A wolf, on the surface it seems like a big strong monster but in the fantasy world they usually an only mid-class boss level monster rarely there any other that go beyond that, but that only in a fantasy world where magic run free everywhere in the world, if it a real-world then my chances of surviving goes down real quick a human can easily kill wolf pretty easily not to mention poachers or a hunter.

I can only hope this is a fantasy world where my chances of survival is high or low depending on what ability I have, I hope I get some insane ability considering I only got bad luck so far like gacha game and like gacha when your bad luck is so bad that god of bad luck pity you but doing nothing about it, then the goddess of luck will come to bless you with her grace and blessings to bring you happiness in gacha hell ...maybe?

I bend all my legs in the ground to make a crouching position, close my eyes and start praying to the only goddess that will help me in my desperate situation. I beg you the goddess of luck and fortune Eris-sama please save me from any shit ability and give me some OP one, like the ability to steal others ability, ability to charm other or the ability to grow continuously without any limit. Whatever it is please give me some useful ability Eris-sama!

After some silent second passes, I change my posture to lay on my right side. I don't have anything to do or more like I don't know what to do, what can I do now is only pray to Eris-sama to make tomorrow better.

For now, I will lay low to see if there any danger and see if any there any potential food out here, I don't feel like to hunt for now but if there any chance that potential meal comes out I will not waste my chance and kill it, after all, I don't know when last time this body eat not to mention drink.

I must get ready for the future now that I am a wolf I must kill to survive not like the modern world I used to live where you just sitting in front of computer and get money. In this world, I need to kill to survive and to thrive I need to become strong, strong enough that I will not worry about my well being.

Now my priority is food and water I must get it as soon as possible with caution to not endanger my self. For water, I think I can use my smell to detect any water from for quite a long distance. For food, I think it might be quite dangerous if I really in fantasy world.

My body is huge but the size alone didn't contribute much in fantasy world of sword and magic, I must start thoroughly checking out my body and ability to see if I can cast any magic or not, if not then I am just big ass stupid weak wolf that fated to death in this beautiful and unforgiving world, where sword and magic run free to everyone and I am no more than pest in the eyes of human that can cast magic or use some flashy sword skills.

Well, what can I say except this day is a certainly huge surprise for me thing go downhill really quick, at least for now I can say that I already calmed down. I exhausted not physically but mentally, I need to sleep and leave tomorrow for tomorrow and hope it turns for the better. Seriously tomorrow, please be better!
