Chapter 31 - Dire Wolf Chai
-POV of Chai who was mistaken for a dog-
The place where I escaped to was the residence of the Fenrir king.
I was prepared to die but I was allowed to stay there as long as I stayed sane.
How much time has passed since then?
However, all we can do is brace ourselves against the power of evil eye magic that’s trying to take over us.
How many days will my consciousness last?
I can’t even stand up.
I don’t even know if what I’m trying to do is something I myself want to do.
It looks like my end is near.
I can’t let Fenrirs, who gave me a place to stay, be in trouble.
I must lose my sanity in another place.
That time, when my consciousness was about to fly out, I felt something mysterious that made me open my close eyes.
Then, I saw despair.
The Fenrir king brought a human to this place.
What does that mean?
The king is dead.
The surviving Fenrirs intimidated him.
The king replied in the human’s stead.
She can reply?
Wasn’t she swallowed?
When I was thinking about what on earth is happening, warm light spreads through the room many times.
When I was hit by the light, discomfort disappeared from my body.
Over the past few decades, I have lived in absolute discomfort.
I never thought that it would disappear….
I finally realized that the light is purification.
However, it is not an ordinary purification but the most powerful purification I have ever seen.
Is the human doing it for us?
Didn’t the humans attack this forest in the first place?
A human with mysterious magical power.
He used his magical power to heal my long-tormented body.
….
When we started living to serve his lordship, I noticed that his magical power is out of this world.
He can continuously use magical power at all times and can even casually cast barriers.
At first, I was scared that he’ll lose consciousness if he runs out of magical power.
Is his lordship a monster?
He casted barrier many times.
On top of that, there is no sign of the barrier running out of magical power. He even strengthened it.
That amount of magical power is terrible.
He also reacted to mithril like it was nothing.
Humans usually react strangely to mithril.
What’s more, he was able to magically mold a huge piece of orichalcum.
Orichalcum is an ore that doesn’t conduct magical power easily.
I couldn’t help but think if that’s what really happening in front of me.
It might be my mistake to put his lordship at the same level as a human.
Just his magical power alone already says that he’s a never been seen or heard species.
There are a lot of times that I feel scared of him.
However, when he pats my head, warm magical power flows out of his lordship.
No matter how strong he is, this warmth makes me not want to leave him.
