"Have you ever wondered why I don't believe in God so much, even after seeing your amazing abilities, I still want to reject or even deny the mystical?"
"A large part of the reason is because the person I hate the most is the country's biggest believer in the mystery and the leader of the paranormal department that is opposed to the scientific faction."
Bai Ye understood.
"So...that's how it is?"
Is this why Victorica has only ever guessed half of her own identity? It's not that she couldn't guess, but rather that the girl was unwilling to acknowledge the other half.
"It seems we've gone a bit off-topic."
Seeing Bai Ye deep in thought, Victorique forced a smile.
"In short, the purpose of this trip to Gray Wolf Village is to clear my mother's name. I don't believe my mother is really a murderer."
The girl's tone was full of determination.
"This is a battle! I will not return until Cordelia Gallo is victorious!"
"Don't worry, Victoria, your mother is definitely not a sinner. On the contrary, she must be the greatest mother in the world."
"This time, I said it!"
"Yes, thank you, Bai Ye!"

First of all, I would like to thank all the readers who have made it this far. Your companionship is the best support on my journey.
Even though my writing is just average and there are various problems in the book, I have also read some of the suggestions that readers in the comments section have given to the young author.
As a complete newcomer, not some kind of Edo Tensei novel! I will take everyone's requests and suggestions to heart and strive to write a novel that all the big names will enjoy reading.
To be honest, this book's performance wasn't great. It didn't advance after a trial recommendation, and the editor told me that if it didn't advance, it would basically get no more recommendations. In other words, this struggling author only has the readers who are still reading it now, and this book will be written for you.
As this is the first novel by a young author on Hedgehog Cat, as long as there are readers, I will persevere and finish writing this book.
I've also posted the fan group number in the comments section. Feel free to join the group whenever you have time to chat or urge for more updates.
Anyway, this book will probably take at least a million words to finish.
This humble writer's living expenses for the next six months depend on this novel, so if possible, please give me plenty of monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, and even some razor blades! I'd be extremely grateful!
In addition, I'll follow the example of my seniors and set up a reward here.
The time frame is from 10 AM this Friday to 10 AM next Monday, with no upper limit on the reward.
I don't think anyone will actually tip my book, though (sobs~) (sobs~)
The rules are as follows:
One more update will be added for every 200 recommendation votes.
One more update will be added for every 50 monthly tickets.
One more blade for every 50 blades.
One extra chapter for every 1000 cat biscuits.
For the first week after the author's work is published, there will be three updates per day by default. After the first week, the updates will be reduced to two per day. After the bounty ends, the number of updates owed to everyone will be tallied and will be made up within two weeks. Thank you for your support.
Finally, I'd like to thank all the readers for their support of this struggling author. I hope to continue writing the novels you all want to read—[Yumeko's Leg Hair]
Chapter 47 The Village of Gray Wolves (Part 2)
The next morning.
Because of the storm last night, the whole city was shrouded in fog.
Perhaps because she was not used to sleeping in an unfamiliar place, Bai Ye was the first to open her eyes. Because she had talked too late last night, there were still faint dark circles under her eyes.
Bai Ye yawned, feeling a little drowsy and sleepy.
Bai Ye tried to stretch out her hands, but it seemed that her right hand was stuck in something that was both soft and hard, tightly. She didn't like this feeling.
My subconscious thought was to shake my arm off.
But just as she was about to exert herself, Bai Ye, who had just realized what was happening, suddenly snapped out of her drowsiness.
A cold sweat broke out on my back.
It turned out that because he had always woken up alone before (Little Saint would return to the Holy Lance Space by himself in the middle of the night), Bai Ye had almost forgotten that Victorica was lying next to him before he went to sleep last night.
He gazed at the blonde girl who was curled up like a kitten, sleeping with her arms wrapped around his right arm.
In an instant, Bai Ye imagined the horrific scene of him slamming the girl against the wall with a flick of his wrist.
Recalling the original story, Victorique was about to break off all ties with the original owner of the body just because she was flicked on the forehead.
If Victorique had done that to herself, she probably would have cried for a very long time! And she would never forgive herself for the rest of her life!
The thought of the girl tearfully threatening to break off their friendship made Bai Ye immediately shake his head, clearing his mind of the chaotic thoughts.
"No, I'll have to practice with Little Saint more when I get back, since he's always sleeping with someone holding him in his arms in the morning."
Little Saint: "???"
"Use me to practice on for your other girls?"
Regardless of the protesting voice that had been echoing in Xiao Sheng's mind since early morning.
Bai Ye simply patted Victorique's cheek twice with his left hand to wake the girl.
"Wei Baozi, it's time to get up."
"We still have to head to the gray wolf village today!"
Victorica opened her eyes.
"Bai...Bai Ye...What's wrong?"
At first, I was a little dazed, but when I came to my senses, I suddenly realized that I had come to Bai Ye's room yesterday because I was scared.
The girl immediately blushed and shyly ran back to her room.
After tidying herself up for a moment and changing into her usual gothic dress, Victorique and Bai Ye boarded the carriage bound for Gray Wolf Village.
The innkeeper helped arrange the carriage; it seemed to be the driver hired by the three people who failed to climb the mountain yesterday.
After learning that Bai Ye and Victorique were also heading to the Gray Wolf's village, they decided to give Bai Ye and Victorique a ride.
The carriage was very spacious; even with six people seated, there was still room to spare.
Bai Ye and his companion were the last passengers to board the carriage.
Besides himself and Victorique, there were three men and one woman on the bus. Bai Ye sat in the middle, facing the three men, while Victorique sat to Bai Ye's left.
It's worth mentioning that the woman to Bai Ye's right was none other than Sister Midori, who had come with Bai Ye and his companion yesterday.
"Hello, my name is Yalang!"
"These two are my good friends, Raul and Derek!"
The three men who had chartered the car were the first to introduce themselves.
"I am Bai Ye, hello everyone."
Bai Ye wasn't particularly enthusiastic about the introductions made by the three middle-aged men. Seeing that Victoria didn't want to speak, Bai Ye didn't offer to introduce her this time either.
“Miderui”.
The nun also gave her name.
After the usual self-introductions, the uncles, seeing that Bai Ye didn't seem to want to talk to them, started chatting amongst themselves.
Only then did Bai Ye realize something was amiss, and he looked at the nun sitting to his right.
"I never imagined that the hometown Miss Midri mentioned she wanted to return to was actually the village of the gray wolves!"
Recalling the familiar look the nun gave Victorique in the car yesterday, Bai Ye suddenly understood. If she grew up in the Gray Wolf Village, she should often see figures similar to Victorique.
"no!"
"?"
Bai Ye was somewhat puzzled, not expecting that the reasoning he had just established would be wrong.
Although Bai Ye had read the original novel, so many years had passed that it was impossible for him to remember the identity of even a minor character so clearly.
It took me a while to vaguely recall that in the original story, this nun seemed to have caused a case because she had stolen something.
However, Bai Ye didn't remember much else. Although she didn't know the nun's identity, Bai Ye would ask.
"Why would the nun want to come with us to the gray wolf village?"
"What if I was also drawn in by those three messages? Is that not allowed, handsome?"
Bai Ye frowned upon hearing this.
"Shouldn't the nun have sworn an oath before the statue of God that she wouldn't lie?"
"Is that handsome young man going to punish me in place of God?"
This time, Miss Midri's tone seemed to carry a hint of provocation.
Do you believe I'll drag your family head out and punish you in a bit?
Bai Ye thought these words to himself, but he also wanted to ask about the real situation.
After all, the way the nun looked at Victorique didn't seem like a stranger, and considering she had been following them all along, Bai Ye didn't believe there could be such a coincidence.
Just as Bai Ye was about to continue speaking, one of the three men accompanying him suddenly interrupted him.
"Although I don't know what you two are arguing about, it seems we've arrived at our destination!"
The man who spoke, Ya Lang, pointed ahead of the carriage.
Looking in the direction the finger was pointing, the road ended at an endless cliff shrouded in mist.
Just as everyone was wondering why they hadn't seen the gray wolf village.
The carriage finally passed through the last grove of trees, and the passengers could finally see the magnificent, secluded castle on the other side of the cliff.
The castle appears to be mostly built of stone, with stone pillars and massive, cold steel doors.
Surrounded by towering walls on all sides, as if to prevent the invasion of some foreign enemy, from a distance, it looked as if everyone had seen a medieval fortified city.
Bai Ye and his six companions stepped down from the carriage. The lookout on the opposite city wall seemed to only then notice the arrival of the guests.
The wooden drawbridge connecting the castle and the cliff was slowly lowered.
"As instructed by the villagers, the summer festival will begin tomorrow morning and end in the evening. I will come here to pick you up tomorrow night!"
The driver, seeing that the destination had been reached, prepared to leave.
However, the people who got off the carriage were no longer in the mood to pay attention to the driver's words.
"awesome!"
"This is what makes it a true secret realm!"
The three middle-aged men cheered immediately.
Bai Ye understood the implication in their words; these three really did come to explore after seeing news of Gray Wolf Village.
Bai Ye glanced at the middle-aged man in the lead. In his eyes, these three had become the classic examples of idiots who would feed the enemy in a horror movie.
She turned back to look at Victorique, whom she was holding hands with, and stared intently at the Grey Wolf Stronghold ahead without saying a word.
Finally, the suspension bridge was completely lowered.
As if to welcome us, the huge doors finally opened.
