Volume 1 The Scourge of Witchcraft and the Enemies of a Thousand Years Ago Chapter 38 The Uninvited Guest
After a while, the moon had crept from the east to the west, and Alan had fallen asleep with her head against the carriage, and Alyssa had fallen asleep on the window edge.
The fields on both sides of the road had disappeared, replaced by patches of woods, and the moonlight could not penetrate the carriage, and the light was much darker in an instant. It seems to have entered a mountainous area, and the road is starting to get a little rough.
Suddenly, the carriage inexplicably began to slow down, and then simply stopped, and the violent shaking woke all three of them.
"Hmm?...... What's going on?" asked Riel, rubbing his eyes, drowsy in his sleep. His head also hit the car window with a "bang".
Alan and Alyssa also woke up, and they looked out the window at the same time to find the two unicorns looking left and right in place, and looking restless.
"Are they tired?" asked Riel.
"No, the book says that a unicorn can run for three days and three nights without stopping for three days and three nights at a time...... It's not so much that they're tired, but I feel like they're scared of something. Alan noticed their anomaly and began to look around.
"Shhhhh......h
Riel also noticed the anomaly and looked over there. Allen's eyesight was not as good as the two of them, and because he was sitting on the right, he couldn't see the left side clearly. However, he could clearly see the cold sweat on Ryel's forehead and his pale face.
"What's wrong?" asked Allen.
"Alan," Riel asked, swallowing, "what has green eyes at night?"
"Uh...... Both wolves and cats are. Why do you ask this?"
"Nothing else?" Rare's voice began to tremble.
"If you're referring to our neighborhood, it's gone. ”
"That'...... What about werewolves?"
Alan seemed to realize something when he heard this, and hurried to the left window to look out, but this look was not tight, he saw a small eye shining in the woods approaching them little by little, blinking from time to time, and looking at the shape, it was obviously not the size of a cat!
"Run!" Alan shouted as hard as he could, realizing the seriousness of the problem.
When the two unicorns heard Allen's roar, they immediately seemed to be full of strength, and they hissed twice and then turned around and ran! At the same time, the green eyes also pounced out of the woods! But fortunately, Allen's shout was one step earlier, which made it pounce. It found that it had not succeeded, and immediately began to chase after it.
All three of them looked back, and found that it was, as Riel had said, a werewolf! A closer look at its physique revealed that it was scarred but tall and muscular, and that it was running so fast that it was about the same as a unicorn, and it was gradually closing the distance between them!
"Run, faster!" Rare panicked, yelling at the two unicorns that were already galloping, but they seemed to have reached their limit and couldn't go any faster.
"What's going on with the werewolves now, aren't they in the northern mountains, why did they all come here?"
Alan stared at the werewolf and shook his head to indicate that he didn't know either.
As the distance between the werewolf and the carriage drew closer, Alan noticed something that surprised him: the werewolf was one-eyed! Only its right eye was open, and its left eye had a wound that resembled a knife wound that ran diagonally down from its forehead to its mouth.
"Alan, something doesn't seem right with this werewolf...... "Rare also noticed.
"Do you remember that Kelly once said that the werewolves who invaded their tribe's territory back then were led by One-Eyed!" Alan said.
"Could it be the group!" Rare looked around in fright, "If so, are there any other werewolves nearby?!"
As soon as Riel finished speaking, he felt the carriage suddenly stop again, take a few steps back, and throw them off their seats.
"What's going on?" Rare was smashed and hit on the head again.
Alyssa got up first, looked ahead, and gasped.
"Riel ...... It seems that you have been right. Alyssa looked like she was in a cold sweat on her forehead.
Alan quickly got up as well, and found that there were also two green eyes running towards them!
Now they are really desperate, the one they are chasing behind has already made them helpless, and there is another one in front of them to intercept!
The two unicorns began to spin in and around in place, not knowing which way to run.
Seeing that the one-eyed werewolf behind him had already caught up with him, its muscles seemed so developed that Riel couldn't help but wonder: the carriage would probably be smashed by it with a single palm, and who would it eat first? It seemed like I looked the most palatable......
Just as he was thinking, the one-eyed werewolf behind him had already jumped up and flew towards them again!
All three closed their eyes, ready to resign themselves to fate.
But they only felt a black shadow flash in the air, and nothing fell on their carriage, but they heard the sound of something falling heavily on the ground. They opened their eyes and followed the sound, and saw that the werewolf who had come later was circling around the one-eyed werewolf who had fallen to the ground.
"Kelly!" shouted Rare as he was the first to see who was coming.
Kelly didn't answer, for he didn't have time to look at them, because the one-eyed werewolf had gotten up from the ground, shook his head, and seemed fine.
"Kelly, why is he here?" Alan was puzzled, but didn't have time to think too much.
Both werewolves straightened up, hunched over, this was a signal that the werewolves were ready to attack!
The atmosphere was very tense, and the two werewolves faced each other in tension! Although Kelly was not inferior to his opponent in terms of momentum, in terms of size, the one-eyed werewolf obviously had an advantage, not only was it much larger than Kelly, but also more muscular.
"Oh, what a surprise, I was tracking a familiar scent, and I didn't expect to meet my lovely nephew here!" said the one-eyed werewolf suddenly, apparently knowing Kelly.
"Nephew?" Alan was also taken aback, because he had only heard Kelly say that it was the werewolf tribe that invaded their territory back then, and it was his uncle!
"Kayla!" Kelly let out a murderous roar and anger burned in his eyes. He recognized it as the leader of the werewolves who had invaded their clan's territory, his uncle Kayla!
"I've been looking for you for so long, but I didn't expect you to hide here...... Hmph, still mixed with humans. I can smell other humans in you!" The one-eyed werewolf sneered, then stared at Kelly and continued, "It's a pity that the heir of the majestic mountain range has abandoned his dignity as a werewolf and has become a human pet!"
"I'm not going to let you hurt a single hair of them!" Kelly said through gritted teeth.
"Oh, hahaha! It seems that you are really in the same company with them now?" the one-eyed werewolf laughed, and then looked at him coldly, and said, "But do you think you have the power to protect them, just like you failed to protect your mother, and do you need me to tell you about her death?"
Hearing this, Kelly couldn't hold back any longer, and rushed forward with a roar! But the one-eyed werewolf was very agile, and just flashed to the side and made Kelly pounce.
"Hahaha! Your skills are not as good as I was ten years ago! It seems that my brother has not had time to instruct you on how to hunt prey correctly...... Then let me teach you with my own hands!"
With that, Kayla lunged towards Kelly's right. Kelly also easily dodged to the side, and Kayla pounced, but as soon as his front paws hit the ground, he immediately changed direction, and instantly circled behind Kelly, and bit Kelly's neck before he could turn around!
Kelly realized that Kayla had just deliberately pounced, and the real purpose was his back! He realized the danger and quickly dodged to the side, but it was still too late, and Kayla was bitten on the shoulder and fell to the ground.
"Woohoo!" Kelly was in pain, but couldn't move, Kayla was so much stronger than him, he had no room to resist.
"Bah! what filthy blood!" said Karazon, still pressing Kelly to the ground, and sneered: "Kelly, for the sake of your face that still has the blood of our werewolves, I can spare you from dying, but you must come with me, and take back the territory that once belonged to our werewolves!"
"Don't you think! Father chose to inherit Grandpa's will, and I, as his child, will never obey anyone else's orders!" Kelly flatly rejected Kayla's request.
"Heh! It's exactly the same as my brother, and I really don't even want to die if I'm stubborn...... Back then, my father, who had forgotten the blood feud, wanted to lead the werewolves and humans to coexist peacefully, and I persuaded my brother to go with me and resist together, but he drove him out of the tribe!" Kayla said coldly.
"He had no idea how hard it was for a person to survive on the outside, he didn't care what I had been through outside, and he didn't know how I had climbed to where I am today!" Kayla's expression began to grow angry.
Kelly didn't speak.
"Then it can't be helped," Kayla said as she raised her paw to Kelly's throat, "and I'll have to send you to my brother who is as stubborn as you!"
