brother wolf

I took a stack of books out of the basement and put them in the study, and sat there with the windows open, reading absently.

These books are all written in Elki, and the content is extremely profound. With my current level, it is difficult to understand even the most superficial content, but I am a very patient wolf. The female wolf taught me what patience is. .

With no one around to ask for advice, Ignatius never seemed to consider giving Harrick any knowledge of magic.

Perhaps it is due to the personality and professional characteristics of magicians. The books handed down have almost no content about basic theories and simple practices. All the blank spaces in it, any corners that can leave a word, were left by the magicians who read this book later. There are also various testimonials, as well as the disdain and reprimand of the latecomers to the predecessors. I even saw In a book, two people are arguing.

The boss and Golden Retriever left the villa in a hurry the day after I returned to human form, because King Orret I's birthday and Princess Lodia's engagement ceremony are coming up, and they still have a lot of work to do.

Xiao Hei accepted my human form almost without any doubt.

For animals, perhaps it is not the appearance that matters, but the smell.

It circled around me a few times, then took human form too, looked at me excitedly and said, "I—we're the same."

It refers to my claws and my throat that struggles to make a sound, half-human, half-animal like him.

I looked at him with black lines all over his naked body dangling around the room, and took a coat and put it on him.

It pulled the clothes on its body, its black tail showed a little tail tip from the hem of the robe, and its ears were dumbfounded. It didn't quite understand why I put this layer of "skin" on it, but although it felt a little inconvenient , did not strongly object, but curiously tugged on his clothes, stumbling around the room.

I glanced at it in admiration, Xiao Hei is really beautiful, I am a little worried if I really release the blood restraint on it, so that it can come and go freely, is it a good thing, human beings see it, it is hard not to Arouse the heart of coveting.

But when I thought of Xiao Hei's eyes that were so eager to go out, and the desire of its ancestors left on the parchment with blood and tears, I no longer hesitated.

I opened the book and filled the entire study room, compared it word by word, and finally figured out the details. Fortunately, the way to break the bloodline spell does not require magic, but just brew a potion of medicine.

After hundreds of years, the materials listed on the potion may have changed to some extent, but there are still traces to follow. What bothers me the most is that it mentions the need for "magic blood". I have searched all the books, but there is no explanation for this point.

When I finally got the materials I needed through the boss and Golden Retriever, I hid in the laboratory used by Ignatius, where there was a complete set of magic utensils. I carefully followed the steps in the book and put the materials little by little. I put it into the crucible and stirred it in a specific way. When I needed to put in the "magic blood" material, I took out a sharp short sword according to my guess, and cut my wrist, and the bright red blood dripped into the crucible.

Almost immediately, as if sulfuric acid had been added, the liquid inside reacted violently.

As long as there is a reaction, I am relieved. Anyway, the identity of this so-called inheritor is still useful.

I carried the bowl of dark finished product with my inconvenient paws to the room. Xiao Hei was lying there lazily, tearing and tearing the books I laid out on the floor in a daze. The scraps of confetti on the ground were so angry that I almost went crazy.

It also opened its innocent green eyes and watched me rushing forward with limited mobility, and was so happy that it planned to jump on me, so I quickly hid to the side, "Xiao Hei, stop."

It stood there obediently, I sighed, looked at the chaotic room, and decided not to be angry with it anymore, I put the bowl on the desk, signaled it to change into a human shape, and let it take the bowl Drink the potion.

It held the bowl of black liquid, hesitated for a moment, obviously not very interested in the taste of this thing, saw my eyes fixed on it, finally, it closed its eyes very humanely, and used the strong man's broken wrist The expression drank the potion in one gulp.

Then with a bang, he fell to the ground.

I hurried over and touched his forehead. Fortunately, he must have passed out from the onset of the effect of the medicine. I sat next to Xiao Hei and guarded him.

At this time, I saw Harrick, who had disappeared all day, appear at the door.

He turned a blind eye to Harrick on the ground, just looked at me, and said respectfully: "Lord Seles, this is a letter from Lord Ignatius, he asked me to give you this letter before leaving .”

I took the envelope he handed over, "Are you—going?"

"Yes, Lord Seles." Harrick looked through me, looking into an unknown distance, "Lord Ignatius is too lonely, and I want to spend the rest of my life by his side."

I was silent for a while, then nodded, "You—go. I wish—you—happiness."

He withdrew his gaze, stiff as a rock, with an obvious smile on his expressionless face, "Yes. Thank you. Lord Seles, may God be with you."

He bowed and left the room.

I waited all night before Xiao Hei finally woke up from the coma. After waking up, he didn't seem to have the slightest abnormality.

I took it, walked through the woods, and came to the invisible dividing line, "Try—try." I bowed my head and said to it.

Xiao Hei nodded. I crossed the dividing line and waited for it on the other side. Xiao Hei tried to stretch out one front paw and slowly landed on the ground.

no response.

It didn't move for a while, I patted its head with my hand, and it looked up at me with its head focused on its paws, "Okay."

I followed its fur comfortingly, and it rolled over the line all at once on the ground, then stood up, threw me down, licked my face desperately, and howled with joy.

I also stretched out my paws and rubbed its head, rolling around with it on the grass.

At this time, I felt a strange feeling welling up in my heart.

Xiao Hei also moved away from me, facing the forest, with his head slightly lowered and his paws slightly bent. This is the posture of the panther defending against the enemy. It seems that my feeling is correct, there is indeed something watching us.

I got up from the ground and looked at the places that were hidden by thick trees.I don't want Xiao Hei to be discovered, even if it is now in animal form.

When I saw that silver-gray figure appearing not far away, I felt relieved. It turned out to be the boss. He looked at us expressionlessly, and his dark brown eyes lost their warmth for the first time. It was deserted.

It was the first time I saw his expression like this, and I didn’t know why it made me feel a little scary. I walked slowly towards him with the black panther, and screamed with difficulty with a hoarse throat, "Brother——Brother"

He stared at me intently, then at the panther who was closely following me, and reluctantly nodded, "Go back."

The black panther and I followed behind him. This was the first time the black panther showed up in front of humans. It was a little scared, but seeing that I didn't resist, I was in a dilemma. I knelt down and said to it, "Let's go together."

It rubbed my palm, and then followed me with confidence.

We went back to the villa. The boss and I came to the small living room. I stammered and told him that Xiao Hei lived in the woods and could transform into a human form. He listened without saying a word. In front of his eyes, he turned into a half-man half-leopard form, and I put clothes on it.

Then hold his hand and let him sit on a chair beside him and wait.

The boss wants me to leave this villa where no one else exists. After Harrick left, no one will cook for me, and I can no longer hunt or cook for myself, and he and the golden retriever are also very worried that I will be alone Life here has some surprises.

When he said the word "accident", his tone became more serious, and then he looked at Xiao Hei.

I really wanted to tell him that Xiao Hei was never an accident, and we were the outsiders who broke into his living space, but the boss didn't give me time to explain these details.

He took a very long cloak, put it on me, and directed the servants waiting outside to enter the house to pack some things I needed.

Xiao Hei fidgeted and listened to our conversation. With his sensitive heart and the IQ of a child, he could easily detect the hostile factors in the air. He looked at me worriedly, and I looked at him in embarrassment.

"It—together." I pointed to Xiao Hei.

The boss shook his head resolutely.

"It - it won't go, and I - won't go either." I answered him more resolutely.

The boss's face became more gloomy and cold, the superficial gentleness had disappeared without a trace, and I looked at him without showing any weakness.

In this matter, I will not back down. Since I came back, I have been feeling guilty since I saw Xiao Hei's pitiful appearance. I can't believe what will happen if it is left behind again. .

Now that he can leave the woods again, maybe it will run out to find me by itself, and I believe that with Xiao Hei's personality, he will definitely come outside, just like that time when I stepped out of the invisible dividing line in front of it, It knew that it would be severely punished, but it was still seriously injured just like me.

Anyway, it's much safer to have it with you than to let it run around.

The boss looked at me, blinked his eyes, his original cold expression dissipated a lot, and he finally nodded in agreement with my approach.

I thought he really agreed to this approach.

I found out later that he never really agreed to do this. From the moment he saw Xiao Hei, he seemed to get rid of it—out of my sight.
