Chapter 63: Mysterious Witch “Like they agreed to fight with us?” Gilo clarified my words and I nodded. “H-how?” “It doesn’t matter, as long as we have their aid, that’ll be enough,” I spoke and all their eyes were on Trigonia. “You know that we can not trust them,” Linda said. “Or you just have a trust issue.” Timor surprisingly spoke. "I know that we can not fully trust them, they were cautious in this war. I only asked for a hundred army, not all of them. I hope I can count on them despite the past tragedy.” Timor was quite surprised by my words. I understand his biased judgment, but he must allot a space of doubt in his head. “How’s the witch we brought?” I asked Timor. “She was still unconscious at the clinic, and I think she’s awake now.” He spoke. “One of my armies reported that she was screaming uncontrollably.” “We should have heard it be now,” Gunner said. “Rina put a spell on her to prevent her from escaping.” “Dismiss, we’ll take care of it.” Linda and Liz
Chapter 64: Bloody Yet Friendly FightI woke up earlier than planned so I went to the field. I knew they had all prepared for this. I heard they went out for private practice and I hope they did not overdo themselves. No one was still here-“Excited for today too?” That was what I thought. I turned around and looked up at the tree. “Of course, I hope you slept enough and are fine.” Devon lay on the branch and used his arm as a pillow. “By any chance, does this initiation, will result to rank changes? Like from Gamma to Beta. Delta to Beta, you know what I mean.” I was aware of his desire to be one of my commands. I understand that he thought he was more suitable for being the Beta. I took a sigh and looked at the wide field while Devon was behind me up on the tree. “Do you think I did a wrong decision, Delta Devon?”“I don’t think you did a wrong decision, I just thought that it was right but there’s maybe a better or even best decision than that.” He answered most gently.
Chapter 65: Destruction Lizo and Devon followed. And Gunner already knew that he’d be fighting with me. I saw no fright or alarmed gesture from him. He was more than willing to fight with me because of what I did to Linda and what I said. As expected, Lizo did not fail me and fought flawlessly. Devon may be experienced enough but he was usually driven by anger and a desire to win. He has always been rough. “Done,” I said after Lizo scratched his arm. I stood up and Gunner was already waiting for me. “Do you want me to shift?” I asked him. “Any form will do.” He said and shifted. I shifted and jumped away when he suddenly attacked. I used my forehead to push him back and it was my turn to attack. I tried to bite his leg, but he used his other foot to claw my head, so I turned to avoid it. ‘Does it hurt your ego?’ I asked him and he jumped to me. ‘You know I hate being played.’ I did not care where he was rooting. He must know his place and take the situation professiona
Chapter 66: Inevitable CuriosityMy eyes suddenly felt watery, and a tear did drop from my left eye. Why am I crying?‘Who was he?’ The question he left me. “Who was he?” Someone said it out loud. All I could do was take a sigh. “How was everyone?” I asked and hid my bow and arrow. “Fine, you?” I did not bother to answer. He could see I am perfectly fine. “Are you going to avoid me just because I like you?” He said carelessly, he did not care that everyone would know his dear feelings towards me. “Why do you think I am avoiding you?” I asked back and heard him walk next to me. “You’d usually answer me casually, unlike now. You are ignoring my question.”“You fix your question before accusing anything.” I hurriedly left him and try to find a private place. Why did I suddenly feel down and sad? Like something hurt inside my heart. Who was he?The cape man tried to steal the she-wolf from Dion’s pack. It was him, but unlike that time he was hiding his face. He was Dion’s
Chapter 67: Linda’s FrustrationI woke up earlier than planned when I remembered the reward I promised. I had no clue what to give them so check my belongings. I think they need something that’d help them. I visited Gunner in his house and left the enchanted dagger with him. I got it from Aunt Zinny’s house before. I gave Gilo magic boots. It has a hidden blade to use when fighting. I noticed he was good at using his feet. I gave the other a vial to heal any kind of wounds and even an antidote to any poison. After distributing those rewards, I walked to where I told them to gather. Timor was already there waiting quietly. Sitting under the tree. “What was the barrier for?” He asked when I sat next to him. “To keep everyone inside safe from an unexpected ambush, and to make sure no one would go far from my watch. “When will we be ready for this war?” “No long enough, sooner or later.” “We’d just wait like this?” He was probably tired of this war. “Who told you we’re ju
Chapter 68: Doubts He nodded and jumped off the window, I watched him leave but I was afraid. I would be needing a great fighter like him. I need him to lead his team. I have given them the task to gather rouges to join our pack as much as they could. I needed to be true to my words, I could not stop him from leaving. His family wanted him back. I had dived back into my bed and let my drowse take over, I needed to regain my strength. when woke up it was already dark; my Beta and Gamma were ready to hunt with me.“Ready?” I asked and Lizo gladly nodded. Linda was still in dilemma. “Clean your thoughts as you step into the woods,” I warned them, I prepared a different technique for them, and this would drain them emotionally. “Prepare the for worst.” I said and when they stepped into the barrier, they both fell to the ground. Before draining them emotionally, I’d drain them physically. “Walk,” I ordered them. Inside the barrier was enchanted, and their body would be heavie
Chapter 69: The AssemblingWe shouldn’t waste a second, I knew they were preparing too. This calm wind and fine day were enough signs for me. I leaned on the trunk and closed my eyes; I should assemble my army for this coming war. “I need a break, Lizo. Go and rest.” “So, you were pretending that you did not feel our presence back there?” I knew he would use that technique on me. “No, I could just smell your scent this close.” He was right behind me. “What do you need?” He was slowly turning into an annoying stalker. “I saw you ran in this direction; I thought you saw something suspicious.” “I just need to think,” I answered instantly.“Then think and I’ll guard you.” I sighed and refused to speak more. I closed my eyes and tried to rest. “I knew you were avoiding me to not give any false hope.” He suddenly spoke. “I know I should not hope, I know my limit. But can you let me stay by your side to protect you?” Hearing his words, I could barely recognize him, the Lizo I m
Chapter 70: Untamed AlliesMy head was hurting badly when I was listening to their report back then, I was very pleased, and those Alphas sounded good. What a disappointment when I met them. “You must have plotted your revenge meticulously.” An Alpha my age said while sitting informally. “Yeah, you should’ve planned this flawlessly since you already call us. When-““I doubt she already has. Judging her pack, it was barely stable, she should have fixed her pack before that in my opinion.” Another Alpha spoke. I did not foresee that gathering Alphas in my pack would be this chaotic. They may be sat peacefully but they kept throwing sharp remarks at me. I secretly massage my head. “Are you sure you should move now? As I could see your army hasn’t gotten any muscle.” I saw how my Deltas react to that, but they choose to let me handle it. And it was followed with countless support and even added worse comments. “I’d appreciate it if you’d shut your mouth.” They all shut their m
