Chapter 315 – Hungry Wolf
“Snow White Wolf? Really?”
When they reach adulthood, do they get that big? I didn’t know any other specimens besides Moff, so I thought they were all so friendly, but that’s not the case at all. The impression of a huge beast baring its fangs and raging in front of me is more like a hairy dragon than a wolf. Its appearance, size, personality, and presence are all completely different creatures.
I think it might be a relative of Moff, but that doesn’t mean I can afford to take it easy. If I show any weakness, it’ll eat me alive. Even if I don’t show any weakness, it’ll probably chew through the entire armored personnel carrier.
“What should we do?”
“Don’t provoke it. It seems like this guy is confused.”
“This one?”
All I can feel is anger, hatred, and a desire to kill. What have we done to deserve this?
“Is it some kind of misunderstanding? Or is there some kind of destiny that requires us to kill each other? Either way, we’ll just have to wait a little longer.”
Wait, in this state?
“If it’s just the outer shell of the ‘Kyasupaa,’ it won’t break from a little play. This is…”
There was a loud roar, and the car shook violently. A scream came from the rear compartment. The blow to the body seemed to be a kick with the front paw, but it was completely invisible because it was delivered from a position out of the driver’s line of sight.
“I’m sorry, Yoshua. Before killing it, can I talk to it?”
“Fine, as long as you’re with me.”
With Myrill in my arms, I step forward from the gun emplacement. If it attacks, I’ll teleport away and counterattack. I won’t let it touch Myrill, not even an inch.
“…Uuuuu…!”
Though it no longer has the momentum to lunge at us and devour us at the first opportunity, it still has a rough breath and a sharp gaze.
“We are the Demon King of Casemaian, Takifu Yoshua, and his wife, Myrril. Let us hear your name.”
“…Gaaa.”
“Ah, I’ll tell you first.”
It was about to roar at the girl, who was smaller than its own claws, but Myrril’s soft voice dampened its momentum.
“I don’t know what’s happened to you. If it’s your own problem, I won’t interfere. If you want us to leave, we’ll just go. If you’re in trouble, we can help. It’s up to you. However…”
I couldn’t see Myrril’s face from where I was standing, but the giant beast’s gaze, fixed on that point, wavered as if it were frightened.
“If you disrespect the Demon King, I will kill you.”
The white fur stood on end. It let out a small cry and shrank. Or rather, it made itself look bigger with its supernatural powers. It was about three meters long, although it was bigger than Moff. If you included its tail, it would be over four meters long, but its tail was curled up between its legs.
Myrril-san, you’re scaring it too much.
“…Woof.”
It’s much thinner than Moff, and its fur is dull, but it looks friendly enough, and its head hangs apologetically.
“No, you don’t have to apologize. I’m not particularly angry. Was there a reason?”
It became difficult to talk because the creature, whose eyes were at the same level as Casspir’s roof, shrank. We jumped down to the roof and sat on the edge.
“Uu, woof.”
“Oh, I heard that. We also made friends with the young fellows.”
“Uu, woof.”
Well, as expected, Mir-san is having a normal conversation, but I have no idea what it’s about. I’m starting to get a vague idea of what Moff, whom I’ve known for a long time, is thinking, but from this first meeting, I can only get a vague sense of a dejected mood.
“Woof.”
“I see. This must be difficult.”
“Myrril, what’s wrong?”
Myrril looks at me and shakes her head.
“Apparently, many Snow White Wolves have been killed by the Imperial Army in the last quarter century. Moff’s mother was one of them. Because of that, this one’s parents told him to stay away from human settlements. He befriended a Beastkin child who lived in that village, and he ended up getting too involved.”
“Woof!”
“When his parents found out, they were very angry, so he stayed away for a while, and when he came to visit after a long time, this is what he saw. I think he must have misunderstood that we had done something wrong.”
The Beastmen shivering in the car behind us must have been misunderstood as well.
“So he doesn’t know why the inhabitants of this place disappeared?”
“He doesn’t seem to know, but he says the smell is strange for someone who has been abducted.”
“Smell?”
“It is said that people who feel fear, excitement, sadness, or anger leave behind a smell. It is something we cannot understand.”
“Woof.”
“It seems that the forty or so people who lived here left the village with feelings of joy and anticipation. However, the only one who made friends with the Beastkin child…”
Hey, stop it. I hope they didn’t do anything terrible to the beastkin child. Myrril’s words confirmed my fears but also betrayed them.
“They left it in the square, with a flat expression on its face, as if to say, ‘This is goodbye.'”
Myrril pointed to a shabby, tattered tunic that the snow-white wolf was holding in his mouth.
