"Maybe it can be done... However, it seems that you are not old enough, for us fox people, you must be at least 18 years old, that is, you can only perform this ritual when you reach adulthood, which is why it is called a rite of passage. The priest said, a look of embarrassment on his wrinkled face.

"Not old enough? I'm not old enough this year..."The white wolf, who was about to say that he was 28 years old this year, realized that something was wrong, he was only 23 years old before the crossing, and about 5 years had passed since the crossing, so his mental age was 28 years old, yes, but his biological age....

"I don't know how old I am..."The white wolf said with some frustration, the body of the white wolf was obviously not just born before his soul crossed over, but he didn't know the exact age, so he didn't even know how old he was now.

"Don't you know your age? Didn't your parents tell you?"

"No...."The white wolf found himself completely ignorant, not knowing his name, not knowing his age, and not knowing who his real parents were.

There was an awkward silence in the room, the white wolf's background sounded a little too miserable, and the other three foxes didn't seem to think about how to answer.

"I'm sorry for my question, I shouldn't have asked such a presumptuous question. The priest bowed slightly, expressing his apologies to the white wolf, and the two foxes standing behind her were also looking at the white wolf with sympathetic expressions.

"It doesn't matter. The white wolf shook his head, in fact, he didn't really care who his biological parents were in this world, for him, his parents were already certain, one was the old couple who raised him in the original world, and he probably didn't have a chance to see them again, and the other was the gray wolf couple who raised him in this world, and they had also passed away. He doesn't particularly care who gave birth to him, at most he is curious about his own background.

"Is there anything wrong with performing this ritual before the age of 18?" asked the white wolf, wanting to try it if the problems caused by his age were acceptable.

"There will be a problem of incomplete change. "According to the texts, if this ritual is performed before adulthood, many of the characteristics of the pre-change period are preserved, and this reservation is unpredictable. ”

The white wolf asked the sacrifice to elaborate on what it means to be incomplete, and the sacrifice gave a detailed explanation, and the white wolf understood what was going on.

There was once a fox who performed a ritual before he was a minor, and as a result, the fox hair on his body disappeared, but the face shape was still exactly the same as the fox, no change, it looked quite strange, and the worse news was that after this ceremony, the fox's humanoid appearance was solidified forever, and there was no way to change it, and the poor fox could only live with a hairless fox face, because he or she looked too strange, so he or she never found a mate, and finally died alone.

The foxes took this as a warning, so they made a rule that they were not allowed to perform rituals until they reached adulthood, and in fact, until now, the legend of the hairless fox-faced monster is still circulating among the fox family, and as an after-dinner conversation, the fox mothers also use this hapless brother to intimidate the disobedient little fox.

"If you don't sleep well, the hairless monster will come and get you!"

"Eat well! or the hairless monster will eat you!"

Qingyue and Absinthe kept nodding their heads when they heard the priest tell the legend of the hairless monster, and it seemed that they had been frightened like this when they were young.

In the original world, the white wolf's mother did something similar to him, but at that time, it was often the big bad wolf who replaced the role of the hairless monster, such as if you didn't sleep well, the big bad wolf would come and eat you.

Now the white wolf has become a wolf himself, although the color is not gray, but rethinking these words from the perspective of a wolf, the white wolf suddenly feels that it is not easy to be a wolf, and it sounds like a chore to be responsible for eating children all over the world when they are disobedient.

"If you really want to perform this ceremony, we can do it for you, after all, you are the patron of the fox god, but..."

"However, there is a good chance that the hairless monster is a lesson for me. The white wolf simply said the rest of the words for the sacrifice.

Listening to the white wolf's words, the priest nodded.

"Let me think about it before I decide. The white wolf sighed, although he had long wanted to return to his human form, and now that his dream was even closer to him, he still had to assess the risks he was going to face, and if he couldn't bear the expected losses, he would have to give up this precious opportunity, although he really wanted to turn back into a human.

"By the way, do you know a fox girl named Momiji? The white wolf simply changed the topic, and the origin of the red leaf also made the white wolf quite concerned, whether it was the strange style of clothes she was wearing, or the alluring blood flowing in her body, and the spells used to send the white wolf to the village later, etc., this fan-like girl has too much to care about the white wolf.

"Momiji ......?" the priest frowned at the white wolf's question, and then fell into deep thought.

"Maybe I'm really old, but I really don't find in my memory the fox you talked about, you said it was an ordinary fox who gave you a sign of favor... IMHO, this seems impossible, as this mark can only be given by the fox god himself. The priest shook his head and replied in a sure tone.

"No way! she sent me in.... Haven't you all heard of the name... The white wolf couldn't believe the priest's answer, and turned his expectant gaze to Absinthe and Qingyue, trying to get the response he wanted, but the two foxes shook their heads in confusion.

The white wolf was still unwilling, and told the priest about the appearance of the red leaves, the clothes and shoes he was wearing, and the blood of the gods, waiting for the priest's answer.

"I have some impression of the kind of clothes you mentioned, it should be the ancient style of our fox clan, but I really don't know about the existence of Momiji, maybe she is some kind of incarnation of the fox god, so that you can get his favor in this way. The priest replied.

"Is Momiji the fox god?" "The white wolf felt that his three views had been subverted, he had actually talked to a god and even drank her blood?
