Chapter Ninety-Five: Fear
At that time, I felt as if the whole person was falling apart, struggling to get up, the beast actually pounced, pressed me to the ground, opened the mouth and bit my neck, at that moment I suddenly closed my eyes, and secretly screamed in my heart, it's over, I didn't expect that in the end I actually passed away in this way, but after waiting for a while, I found that there seemed to be nothing wrong, and immediately opened my eyes slightly, and suddenly saw a huge nose appear in front of me, constantly twitching, It really scared me at the time, and I didn't know what this animal was trying to do. Then I saw it sniff at me for a while, and suddenly there was a 'whin' sound in its mouth, not so much the beast's usual demonstration, but more like feeling some kind of fear, out of curiosity I couldn't help but turn my head to look into the other party's eyes, those turquoise pupils were no longer as fierce as before, instead there was a kind of fear, pitiful, gradually I felt that the other party's claws that had been holding me down actually began to relax.
'Boom!' At this moment, I suddenly heard a loud noise, and I don't know who suddenly cast a magic, just hit the ice wolf, it was a wail in pain, and fell to the ground, because the distance was too close, even I was shocked and sank, although there was no fear for my life, but my whole body was as if it was falling apart.
'Come here!' Before I could understand what was going on, someone suddenly grabbed me by the collar and dragged it back, I looked up and saw that it was actually the princess, only to see that her pretty face was flushed red at the moment, and I don't know if it was in a hurry or because of the excessive force of pulling me, at this time the other ice wolves around saw that it was not good and immediately pounced on us. Afterwards, Ah Zi and Xiao Jia had described the scene at that time to others countless times, a peerless and beautiful elf, dragging a man who was a head taller than her with one hand, and constantly finding a ball of light with the other hand resisting the attack of more than ten ice wolves, that scene was as heroic as an ancient epic.
Of course, many things sound the same thing, personal experience becomes another, in fact, our situation at that time can be described as extremely dangerous, the princess alone can not deal with the attack of the wolves at the same time, and the other people around us are afraid of us to come forward to help, seeing that the wolves are about to rush to our side, I can even clearly feel the stench in their mouths, but at this moment an incredible scene appeared, the wolves suddenly stopped as if they had discovered some big secret, There was a look of horror in their eyes, and even if the princess repeatedly attacked them, the fellows did not take a step forward, but stopped in place, and let out a low roar in their mouths, which sounded full of unwillingness, as if the food that was about to reach their mouths could not be eaten for some reason. Of course, the princess didn't care about this at this time, and when she saw that there was an opportunity, she immediately dragged me back to the crowd like crazy, but fortunately the ground was full of snow at that time, otherwise I guess my back would have rubbed off a layer of skin at that time according to her brutal method.
'What the hell is going on with these guys?' Seeing that the two of us were out of danger for the time being, Xiao Jia asked.
'Whatever, let's go before the other wolves arrive!' At this time, the princess said loudly while shaking her wrist, it seemed that it took her a lot of effort to drag me all the way back.
Everyone heard and felt polite, so they slowly retreated backwards while paying attention to the actions of the wolves, and strangely the wolves did not catch up with us all the time, but just sat in place and watched us leave silently, and I don't know if it was my delusion, I always felt that their eyes were all looking at me, and there was even a little sadness in it... The wolf's sorrow sounds ridiculous...
When our group confirmed that it was safe and finally decided to stop and breathe a sigh of relief, the sky was already white, after such a thrilling night, everyone felt exhausted, many people leaned against the trees and fell asleep, only Lance and the princess and a few of them were busy treating the wounded, taking care of the aftermath, I was lucky, although the whole person was so tired that the upper and lower eyelids were fighting, but the injury was not serious, the more troublesome were Ah Zi and Tony, the former was knocked off two ribs, although there was no worry about life, However, in the short term, I am afraid that it will be difficult to move freely, and the latter is already unconscious at the moment due to excessive blood loss.
'No, these two must be sent back to camp.' Eventually, Lance made his decision.
'That seems to be the only way...' echoed the princess.
'But that would have to delay our trip.'
'No way, after all, human life matters.'
'Don't you have to discuss it?' Lance said as he looked at me sitting next to me, as if he had already seen that I was the most desperate of all the people to save Anna.
'No need, none of us in this group will risk the safety of our companions.' The princess turned her head and smiled at me, which seemed to contain a thousand words, and I couldn't help but bow my head in embarrassment.
'Alright, let's go.' Lance readily agreed, knowing that every time he saw my interaction with the princess before, he seemed to be suspicious, but this time it somehow seemed quite calm, and this change was somewhat unexpected to me.
After a little rest of our group of people set out on the way home, due to the inconvenience of Ah Zi and Tony, everyone also made two simple sleds for the two of them to drag behind the horse, originally according to Lance they felt that I had a back injury and riding a horse is more inconvenient, so I also wanted to get a pair, but in the end I refused, after all, it seems that I can't help but touch, but in my heart to ride a horse with an injury is really not an easy thing, just to get on the horse I don't know how much effort it took me, In the end, Antonla couldn't look at it and reached out to lift me up, not to mention how embarrassing the scene was...
The atmosphere along the way was unusually depressing, and it was no wonder who would have thought that this trip would be so unsmooth, but there is one thing I have never figured out, why the ice wolves suddenly stopped attacking, if it weren't for that, then my life would have been gone long ago...
'What do you think!' While I was thinking, Antona suddenly rode up to me.
"Oh, it's nothing...," I said, and I told myself about my doubts, hoping that this well-known old dragon would have an answer.
'Well, actually, I've noticed that the wolf cubs seem to be scared of you...' Antona muttered after listening to my story.
'Afraid of me? How is this possible...'
'How could it be? Don't forget that you have the soul of the Demon King in your body, and the ancestor of those guys is Fingal, so strictly speaking, they also have demon blood, so it is only natural that they will be afraid of you...'
"No, according to you, wouldn't the demon blood of Dacula's group be purer, but they weren't afraid of me at all.'
"That's because their magic power is too strong, and the Demon King's soul in your body has not been fully awakened, so you can't intimidate them."
'And how does Anna explain it?'
"Her Demon King's soul hasn't fully awakened yet, have you forgotten the seal on her chest?"
'No...,' I smiled wryly, still feeling a little unbelievable in my heart.
