Volume 1 The Scourge of Witchcraft and the Enemies of a Thousand Years Ago Chapter 39 A Familiar Smell

"What to do!!" Rare asked, stomping his foot.

Allen's heart had already risen to his throat, and he didn't know what to do, because none of the telescopic spells, levitation spells, or burst spells they had mastered could have an effect on conscious objects, and their opponents were werewolves who were born with some resistance to magic.

Seeing that Kayla's right hand was about to stab Kelly's neck, Eren couldn't hold back any longer, and finally mustered up the courage to shout, "Stop!" Although he also knew that his voice could only temporarily distract Kayla's attention, and it didn't have much effect.

Kayla was stunned for a moment, looked at them, and then said with a sinister smile, "Don't worry, none of you can escape, and I still have something to ask......"

But the strange thing is that Kayla stopped only halfway through this, and the sinister smile froze on her face, and then I saw that he slowly lowered his claws, and actually let go of Kelly.

Alan didn't know what he wanted to do, so he could only watch it all in a daze.

Then Kayla stood up and froze for a moment, then howled twice and ran straight west, soon disappearing into the moonlight.

It all happened so suddenly that none of these people reacted, and they all froze in place.

Kelly slowly got up from the ground holding her wound, sniffed in the direction Kayla had disappeared for a few moments, then turned back into her human form and walked to the carriage.

"He's really gone, even the smell is gone, and I don't think he's going to come back. Kelly said as soon as Alan opened the car door.

"Your hurt ......," Allen said.

"Don't worry, it's just some trauma, Mr. Oderian will have a way. Kelly said. "You're not hurt, are you?"

"Well, we're all fine...... "Allen had just finished saying "oh!" when he heard Riele "oh!", and he looked back to realize that Alyssa had passed out at some point.

She was probably just overly frightened, after all, she had never seen a werewolf before...... And a bit of a lack of sleep, out of the way. Alan touched her forehead and said.

"You've been in contact with Mr. Adrian for a long time, and you're starting to look like it, Alan. Kelly said with a smile.

"Probably......" Alan smiled as well, and then asked, "Thank you for saving us." But...... Why are you here?"

"If you have a chance, you should go to Mr. Sheodrian, he asked me to come. ”

"Him?"

"Yes, Mr. Adrian has been saying that he is feeling uneasy since the time of the bird, so on a whim he took out his Orb of Insight, and asked it to tell him what the outcome of your journey was, and a green eye appeared on it...... His face changed dramatically, and he didn't have time to say anything to me, but told me to be very careful, and immediately asked me to follow this road, and then what had just happened. ”

"He's a god! thanks to him!" Riel said, "Otherwise, the three of us would have turned into that guy's snack tonight!"

Kelly smiled, but Alan frowned.

"How could you be so unlucky!, and you finally ran into other werewolves after going far away!" Riel continued to complain.

"Don't you feel anything strange?" asked Allen suddenly.

"Where?" Riel still didn't understand.

Alan saw that it was a waste of effort to expect him to come up with an answer, so he said directly: "There are three strange places...... First, how could there be a werewolf here, in the gathering area of humans? Second, why did he also act alone, where was his clan? Third, ...... Why did he run away all of a sudden?"

"That's right. It was only when he heard Alan say this that Riel realized that it seemed to be the case.

Kelly...... Is that one-eyed werewolf really your uncle?" asked Allen, turning his head.

"Hmm. ”

"Did he suffer from any particular disease?"

"I don't know about that...... Because I have a vague impression of him, he was kicked out of the tribe by my father when I was about three years old, and it was only later that I heard from my mother that he was the leader of the werewolves who invaded back then. Kelly said.

"Then why didn't you say it when you were at Mr. Adrian's house?"

"Because at that time, I thought it was a private matter within our family, and it was also a very disgraceful thing......

"Oh. Alan nodded and asked no more.

"It's okay if you're okay, then I can go back with confidence. Kelly saw that the unicorn had calmed down and was slowly moving in the direction of Krivari.

"Well, be careful on your way!" said Allen.

"It's okay, don't worry, I'm better than I used to be. Kelly smiled, and it didn't seem like he was seriously hurt.

"Then we're leaving, take care!" called Allen, by which time the unicorn was running again. Kelly waved goodbye to them and turned to walk in the direction of Beya.

Alan turned around and looked at Alyssa, who was already asleep in her seat.

"I hope the rest of the journey will be safe. Riel said.

"It's okay, Kelly's sense of smell is very keen, since he dares to go home with peace of mind, it means that Kayla has really gone away. Alan reassured.

"I hope so...... Let's hope he doesn't follow the taste all the way to Krivari. ”

Alan just wanted to say something, but when he heard this, he suddenly remembered a very important detail, so he quickly asked, "Riel, did Kayla say that he was tracking a familiar smell!"

"Hmm...... It seems like...... "I think I've heard him say that," Riel thought again, "I think I heard him say that......"

Alan looked at Riel, then at himself, and finally at Alyssa, who was sleeping, and frowned.

"What the hell is going on?" asked Riel as he saw that his expression was wrong.

"It's weird...... Very strange, isn't it?" Allen said.

"What's weird?" Riel still didn't understand.

"You, me, and Alyssa all grew up in Beya, right?" said Allen.

"That's right. ”

"And who is Kayla referring to by 'familiar taste'?"

"Uh......" Rare was speechless.

"I've never been out of Beya, what about you?"

"Neither do I, I just wander around the city or occasionally go to the mountains. ”

"Not to mention Alyssa, who didn't even walk the road except the road between the school and her house. Allen said.

"I think so, too. ”

"That'...... Who is that 'familiar taste' that Kayla is talking about?" Alan asked again.

At this point, Riel couldn't even make a sound.

They remained silent until they drove into the mountains again, and Rare was probably psychologically shadowed by Kayla, and opened his mouth to say, "It's not going to happen again...... but Eren seemed to know what he was going to say, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was stopped by Alan, because every bad premonition would come true.

Fortunately, this time the two unicorns did not have the slightest intention of slowing down, and soon passed through this gloomy forest, which also reassured the two of them.

If Alan also had an insight geode, he would have found out that Kelly was right, Kayla had indeed run away.

By the time Kayla came back to his senses, it was already the middle of the night, and he didn't know how far he had traveled westward, trying to turn around and chase after him, but he found that he couldn't smell the scent of these people. He stopped, looked back for a long time, but could only give up.

"Hmph, I don't know who helped you secretly, this time it's your luck, you'll be found by me sooner or later!" Kayla said to herself with a sneer. Then he raised his head and screamed a few times, and then ran westward, until he ran into a dark mountainous area and into a cave with a very hidden entrance.

The cave was a dimly lit tunnel, only as tall as one man and as wide as two people, and he had to bend down to go inside. The stone walls on both sides were smooth, as if they had been carefully treated, and magic lamps lit up every short distance on either side of the road.

The road seems to lead underground. Kayla walked inside for a long time, and suddenly the light in front of her became abundant, and her vision suddenly became wider. He walked a few steps in, and in front of him was a cliff. It was very noisy under the cliff, and I didn't know what was going on, but I could see countless bonfires and torches illuminating the whole cave.

A hooded man was standing on the edge of a cliff with his back to him.

"Did you find people or things?" the man asked without replying.

"There is no trace yet, my master. Kayla got down on one knee and returned with her head bowed.

The man stopped talking, and looked intently at the bottom of the cliff. The firelight jumped on his face, and because there was a hood covering his forehead, the shadow was too much to see, and he could only see the outline, very young and cold, just ...... Oddly enough, he seems to have some inexplicable resemblance to someone......
