Werewolf Survival in Apocalypse - Chapter 145
Scarlet Blazing Feathers (2)
“Echwi.”
At the sound of coughing, Winter raised his head.
He looked at the girl on his back.
.
She was holding Winter, and her whole body was trembling.
“Papa, paa-.”
Then, when the snow meets the winter, it is seen that he smiles while revealing his teeth.
But he didn’t answer.
Instead, he just checked her complexion.
[…]
Looking at it now, his lips were also blue.
My skin color turned pale as if it would freeze at any moment. Her complexion, which looked good when she was in the capsule before, had long since grown tired of it, and it was pure white.
‘…Oops.’
Winter’s complexion hardened when he discovered it.
His large jawline parted slightly.
‘Are you feeling the cold?’
It’s a waste. It was an unexpected mistake.
He never dreamed that this girl would feel the cold.
‘No way…’
For the time being, Winter hurriedly raised his mana.
It wasn’t a time like this.
The weather right now is literally below freezing.
The midwinter was in full swing, and the cold wind and chill were cutting like a blizzard.
A normal human would freeze to death in a situation like this.
Seeing the shivering figure, Winter hurriedly wrapped his magic around him like a curtain.
‘The Garden.’
A magic that surrounds you with warmth like a greenhouse garden.
“Baby? Sucker?”
The girl raised her head at the warmth of the surroundings that started to warm up in an instant.
Her whole body trembled while hugging Winter’s back, she looked around her in a puzzled way.
“Baaa-.”
Then, as if warm, she raised her hands and made a hurray pose.
At the same time, the trembling that filled the girl’s body slowly began to subside.
The cold was stopping.
[Haa-.]
Worry, who had been watching that scene, finally let out a belated sigh of relief.
‘I almost got into a big deal.’
It’s a waste.
I never thought I would feel the cold.
Winter is finally beginning to feel.
He thought as he looked up at her as she rubbed her body toward her winter, with her complexion soon starting to return.
‘…This guy, in fact, isn’t he helpless without any strength?’
In the first place, it was an element that I hadn’t thought of at all because he was an opponent with a level of dignity that made even him feel wary.
It was winter that I thought would be at least as strong, or a threatening opponent enough to threaten him.
Because this situation was virtually never expected.
Until now, most of the beings that Winter had faced were only those that had the strength to match it.
It’s not just magic power.
In the girl in front of her eyes, there was something of a class that seemed difficult to catch up with even any living creature in the world.
It was the same even in winter.
There is a reason why Winter was so wary and cautious.
Her complexion returned quickly, and she moved more vigorously than before, as if her body was warming up again.
…Well, whatever.
Winter took such a girl and soon began to enter the territory where the pack of werewolves stayed.
Somehow, I feel a little uneasy.
‘I’m sure the other guys in the group won’t start attacking out of nowhere when they see this guy.’
I don’t think that’s going to happen.
It was something I never knew.
They werewolves are naturally lively.
In other words, it also meant that they couldn’t control their overflowing power, and that they were much more playful.
In fact, the intensity of its pranks is much higher than that of humans.
I also meant that a prank done carelessly by Winter’s sisters and the little ones could hurt him very much.
‘Even so, I can’t just throw this guy here and go.’
This is a yard that has already been committed.
If you recklessly abandon it in a situation like this, this guy will surely die. That’s all winter could be sure of.
In the end, it became her voice that he had to take responsibility for her and protect her from now on, regardless of whether she liked it or not.
Of course, that wasn’t the only reason.
Because this world was too rough to act with only a fleeting remorse of conscience.
Sure.
Kyeo-gyeol quietly raised her gaze and watched the girl carefully step by step along her side.
As if he wasn’t used to even his steps.
The way she walks hesitantly is like a baby slowly learning to walk.
[…]
He recalled the first time she met her.
When her winter put her own foot on the capsule of her green broth she held.
Undoubtedly, he faced a future divergence he would face.
Then, maybe she is something of her fate related to him.
Of course, even that was just his guess.
Anyway, the addition of these and other complex factors made it difficult for Winter to give up on the girl.
It was said that the feeling of compassion he had in his days as a human was not enough.
In the meantime.
Finally, Winter and the girl reached the front of the apartment where the group was staying.
From far away, I see a group of winters.
“Miu Miu!”
Yui and Yumi. And even young Inari and Luna.
They waved their hands vigorously and jumped high to express their joy, but it was only for a moment.
Soon afterwards, their hands, which had expressed their joy at the sight of winter, slowly went down.
“…How?”
“Miu Miu?”
Their gaze,
Soon, I headed towards the girl standing next to Winter.
“…?”
Their slowly blinking eyes seemed to be saying this.
What is this?
* * * *
The group of winter did not show signs of a big surprise when the girl appeared.
It did not show any threats or alertness, such as raising a fist or shouting shrilly.
Instead.
I was just watching. Very boring
Sometimes, though, their pupils took on a very dangerous look.
Sureuk.
As if watching prey, it sometimes became a pupil while standing upright.
If winter and snow meet, that kind of look will be released immediately.
“Paa-!”
The girl was wandering around the winter area with a clumsy gait.
She staggered through the living room, step by step, but soon she stumbled greatly.
‘Eak.’
At that appearance, Winter received a girl who was about to stumble upon her own tail.
He let out a sigh of relief.
‘Ha ha. I can’t be relieved of this for a second.’
“Ba-!”
She fidgeted with her bouffant tail and rubbed her own face against it.
The girl seemed to like her tail hair quite a bit.
‘Huh?’
Then suddenly.
Feeling the stare, Winter raised his head, and his sister and the young werewolves turned his head away.
It seemed to be avoiding the gaze.
They looked out the window and looked out the window, wagging their tails.
I was playing the other way.
‘Everyone is especially quiet today.’
Georeum glanced at her sister and the little guys.
They’re usually joking around.
Such a group of winters, for some reason, they are unusually quiet today.
I did understand that feeling, however, as a stranger suddenly got stuck in the middle of the crowd.
Even Winter herself would have done that.
But even with that out of the way, today’s quietness seemed a bit too much to express with just awkwardness.
‘Even though they don’t look particularly welcoming.’
Judging from the ecology of the werewolves that winter has faced so far, they are as long as strangers are not dangerous.
They weren’t particularly vigilant.
As long as they don’t do anything that crosses the front line, such as recklessly crossing their territory, they tend to go over it leisurely and smoothly.
In fact, what caught their eyes right away was not a sign of excessive vigilance.
From noble mtl dot com
It wasn’t even that I was annoyed.
But because Winter felt it, those were the eyes that could sense something dissatisfying.
Should I say that he seems to feel a slight burden?
Still, I think I should consider it fortunate that I don’t show any dislike.
Perhaps they are silently observing this strange girl.
“Ugh, ugh.”
Then suddenly.
The girl trembled with her body. Chicken skin sprouted on her pale, delicate skin.
Oops. It’s a bit cold
Although the inside had a moderately cool coolness for those werewolves, she probably wasn’t for this girl.
Because it’s been so long since I felt the cold, I forgot about it for a while.
He forgot the concept of cold.
For a winter like that, if others don’t show this sense in action, they’ll quickly forget it.
Sure.
Winter woke up.
“Bar?”
Then the girl opened her eyes wide and looked up at him.
It is a winter that is big enough to look up even with a human height.
The girl, as if she had no fear, managed to hold onto the tail of such a winter with all her might and dragged it along. She seemed to want to play a joke together.
Ignoring such a girl, the winter that came to the fireside with the lights off lightly raised her magic power.
‘Fire.’
A simple fire attribute minor spell.
With him, a fire blazed in the hearth that had been full of firewood.
“Ah!”
At once, the girl approached the stove.
She bathed in the heat, her face instantly relaxed, as if very pleased.
At that moment, the scene that followed was-.
It was of a kind completely alien to winter or their imaginations.
“Ugh, ugh…!”
Suddenly, he shuddered.
Above the girl’s head, a plume of fiery, vermilion-colored feathers grew.
[…?]
The eyebrows of winter gathered together.
‘What…What is that.’
