When the bright summer sun shines on the land of the Kingdom of West, the land of the Farnese Empire is also warmed by the sun.
Unlike the Kingdom of West, whose territories were divided among the five major families, the power of the Farnas Empire, in addition to the royal power, is composed of five core sub-human races, namely the Winged People, the Elephant People, the Werewolf People, the Cat People and the Rabbit People.
In other words, the Farnas Empire is an empire of sub-human races.
Among the five sub-human races, the territory of the werewolf clan is located in the southeast of the Farnas Empire. The core location with favorable geographical conditions is the living area of the werewolf royal family.
At this moment, in a garden filled with birdsong and flowers in the territory of the Werewolf Royal Family, Ice Star Shirley was drinking black tea and reading a book, as if she had not been captured by the Werewolf Royal Family, but was as "comfortable" as in her own home.
Of course, this is impossible.
The truth is, Shirley is still a "prisoner" of the werewolf royal family. Not only is she imprisoned in this garden, but she is also still in an abnormal state where she cannot use magic.
The main reason why the situation continued to deteriorate to this point was that Kenroshi Okami really captured Shirley's parents.
After bringing Shirley back to the territory of the werewolf king, the meticulously planned Kenroshi Okami generously allowed the family of three to meet, and then took the three of them hostage and imprisoned them separately.
Kenroshi Okami told Shirley and her family that if any one of them acted rashly, the other two would be punished.
At the very least, one or two fingers would be cut off, at worst, his head would fall off. If they didn't believe that Kenroshi Okami would do this, they could try it.
·
Kenroshi Okami's threats are old-fashioned, but very effective.
Shirley's family of three would rather sacrifice themselves than let the other two family members get hurt. In this situation, the three of them are a burden to each other and no one can escape.
Moreover, in order to further reduce the possibility of their escape, Kenroshi Okami also arranged for people to regularly add special medicines to Shirley's family's meals, so that they would always be in a state where they could not use magic.
Shirley and the others quickly deduced that there might be something wrong with the food and water, but not eating would be seen as a suicide attempt, which would cause harm to their families. Therefore, even though they knew the food and water were poisonous, they had no choice but to swallow them obediently.
In such a situation, Shirley knew that her family was being boiled like a frog in warm water.
It would only take a few minutes for Kenroshi Okami to kill them, but the other party hadn't done anything yet because their goal had not been achieved.
Shirley tried to use this to threaten Kenroshi Okami, but the imbalance of interests between the two parties left her with no bargaining chips to put pressure on Kenroshi Okami.
Kenroshi Okami told Shirley very bluntly that if Shirley committed suicide, he would indeed suffer a loss, but this level of loss was acceptable to him. The worst that could happen was that he would kidnap another member of the Snow Deer family. It would just take a little more time. There were plenty of people in the Snow Deer family anyway.
On the other hand, Shirley, whether it is herself or her parents, has only one life. If they don’t want to die, then they should cooperate obediently. It’s that simple.
·
Kenroshi Okami's blunt threat left Shirley helpless.
Shirley realized helplessly that her family had no hope of escape and could only obey Kenroshi Okami's orders and become his prisoner.
Perhaps, if they were lucky, after Kenroshi Okami had fully utilized their value, he might even let them go...
When Shirley realized that she had such a lucky thought, she completely understood that she was really defeated and had fallen to the point of expecting mercy from the enemy.
But she really had no way to resist.
When she left the Snow Deer family, Shirley had already made up her mind to live for her parents.
And to this day, she still sticks to her original intention, even if it will lead her into an irretrievable situation.
If any one of the three members of a family is missing, it will no longer be a home.
·
After suppressing her rebellious mentality, Shirley stopped wasting her energy and began to adapt to this life as a prisoner, gathering her strength and waiting for the opportunity to break through.
That's why she was "comfortably" drinking tea and reading in the garden just now.
While drinking tea and reading, Shirley would occasionally think of the boy named Fei Ke. For some reason, she always felt that Fei Ke would come to save her, and then immediately denied her own whimsical idea.
Given their weak relationship, why would anyone come to save her?
Moreover, if he wanted to rescue her, he would have to face the entire werewolf royal family, which was not a force that Fike could deal with.
It is no exaggeration to say that even if all members of the Snow Deer family were mobilized, Shirley did not think they could defeat the werewolf royal family.
——(Sigh… maybe I’m getting old, having these unrealistic dreams all day long.)
Shirley covered her face with the book to hide the disappointment and loneliness on her face.
Just at this moment, the voice she least wanted to hear appeared.
"Good morning, Miss Shirley."
Kenroshi Okami brought several werewolf girls into the garden. Shirley had seen this group of people many times. They were werewolf blood witches who came specifically to draw blood from her.
8.182 - Kenroshi's Plan
"Ms. Shirley, your parents have already had their blood drawn this morning. Please cooperate."
Kenroshi Okami greeted everyone as usual, then waved his hand. The werewolf blood witch girls behind him stepped forward and began to provide blood collection "service" to Ice Star Shirley.
Shirley has become accustomed to such things.
Ever since Kenroshi Okami made his outright threat, blood collection has become a regular occurrence.
Shirley didn't know what Kenroshi Okami was going to do with the blood from their family of three, but she could tell that the amount of blood they needed was not ordinary, so they only collected a small tube each time, using a slow and steady approach instead of a violent one that killed the chicken to get the eggs.
"Ms. Shirley, please extend your right hand."
The werewolf girls squatted respectfully beside Shirley. Shirley did not resist and calmly extended her hand to them.
There were already four or five scars on the inside of her snow-white right arm, which was shocking just to look at.
However, everyone present was indifferent to this scene. The werewolf girl in the lead took out a sharp dagger, aimed at the position and cut Shirley's vein.
When the snow-like skin was cut, dark red blood immediately flowed out. At the same time, several other werewolf blood witches standing on the side immediately used their abilities to control blood, causing Shirley's blood to float into the air and gather together, and finally injected into the cylindrical glass container prepared in advance.
"Thank you for your cooperation, Miss Shirley."
The leading werewolf blood witch stretched out his finger and gently wiped Shirley's wound. The wound, which was still bleeding, was immediately sealed by the scab of blood.
Afterwards, the werewolf blood witches carried Shirley's blood and followed Kenroshi Okami out of the garden where Shirley was imprisoned.
·
·
Shirley didn't know the purpose of Kenroshi Okami's blood collection. She only knew that she and her parents were still alive because Kenroshi Okami needed a lot of blood.
What does Kenroshi Okami want to do with the blood of these people from the Snow Deer family?
Shirley guessed that it was very likely that something would be done to the detriment of the Snow Deer family.
She didn't care about this, because she had long seen through the Snow Deer family's greed, and after severing ties with the Snow Deer family, she had never felt any attachment or regret.
However, when Kenroshi Okami obtains enough blood, the situation of herself and her family will become very dangerous. By then, Shirley will not be able to lie down like she does now.
If the opportunity to break the deadlock has not come, then when Kenroshi Okami has collected enough blood, that will be the moment when Shirley will have to take the initiative to break the deadlock.
When the worst situation came, Shirley's last trump card was the only two "black magics" she could use.
—(By then, Kenroshi Okami will surely be utterly shocked...)
A sad smile appeared on Shirley's delicate face, because she knew that if she was really forced to use black magic, her life would come to an end.
·
·
While Shirley was thinking with determination, Kenroshi Okami, who was completely unaware of the girl's decision, was following up on the "plan" in the werewolf blood witch camp.
Kenroshi Okami lied to Ice Star Shirley twice. The "blood" needed for his "plan" actually only required Shirley's share. As for the act of drawing her parents' blood, it was just a deliberate trick for Shirley to see.
By the same token, what Kenroshi Okami said to Shirley that he didn't care if she committed suicide was actually a lie.
If Shirley committed suicide, then Kenroshi Okami's plan would most likely be forced to stop in the worst case scenario - all because he needed not only the "blood of a member of the Snow Deer family", but also the "blood of a young member of the Snow Deer family who had hatred for the Snow Deer family."
From the very beginning, Kenrushi Okami's target was only Shirley. In order to find her parents and kidnap them to the Farnas Empire, Kenrushi Okami put in a lot of effort.
So why is this special blood necessary?
Because in the past few years, Kenroshi Okami and the werewolf blood witches did a lot of research, and finally found that as long as they used the ability of the werewolf blood witches to refine and process this special blood, they could finally get a unique poison that could "destroy" the snow muntjac family.
Kenroshi Okami has confirmed through experiments that as long as the poison can enter the body of a member of the snow muntjac family or a deer spirit through a wound, the target will be unable to use magic power for 24 hours.
In terms of effect, it is far less long-lasting than the anti-magic poison he fed to Shirley's family, but the advantage of this new type of poison is that it can be mass-produced quickly and can take effect quickly as long as it enters the blood, without having to find ways to make the target accidentally ingest it.
Therefore, Kenroshi Okami's new plan is to apply a new type of poison on the blades of various weapons. In this way, just a cut on the skin can turn the Snow Deer Family and their Deer Spirits into waste. What's even better is that this new type of poison has no effect on the werewolf clan, so there is no need to worry about it being used by the Snow Deer Family.
Next, what Kenroshi Okami has to do is to slowly collect the blood of Ice Star Shirley and make enough new poisons. When everything is ready, their werewolf royal family can eliminate these hateful deer thieves in one fell swoop and restore the glory of the werewolf royal family!
"Lord Kenrushi, the Wolf King Patriarch has ordered you to come over, and you must go immediately."
Just when Kenroshi Okami was overwhelmed with emotion, the werewolf royal warrior who came to deliver the news made his mood plummet to the bottom in an instant.
Kenroshi Okami knew why his father was looking for him. This stubborn old man must have discovered that he had secretly hidden three people from the Snow Deer family in the territory of the Werewolf King, so he conveyed such an urgent order.
"I know, I'll be there right away."
Kenroshi Okami had been prepared for such a result, but his father's intelligence ability was still faster than he expected.
——(Tsk… If only it could be discovered after the first batch of the new poison is produced…)
·
Kenroshi Okami walked towards the tent of the Wolf King Chief with a serious expression, thinking quickly about how to deal with the situation.
Just when he was halfway there, he unexpectedly heard from his subordinates that Adela had returned.
"Where is she? Take me to her immediately!"
Without any hesitation, Kenroshi Okami immediately put aside the matter of meeting his father.
In recent days, Kenroshi Okami has been waiting for news of Adela's safe return every day!
·
Soon, under the guidance of his subordinates, Kenroshi Okami finally saw the dusty Adela. This "little devil" who made people love and hate her looked no different from before, safe and sound, and even seemed to be more mature than before.
Kenroshi Okami calmed down his excitement and walked towards Adela with an expressionless face.
At this time, Kenroshi Okami didn't know that his beloved sister had already turned against him.
8.183 - Brother and sister reunited
"Adela."
Kenroshi Okami took the initiative to call out Adela's name and walked forward.
Since no one knew that Kenroshi Okami and Adela had encountered the "Endless Abyss Mishasha", no one thought there was anything special about Adela returning to the territory of the werewolf royal family.
Only Kenroshi Okami knew how difficult it was for Adela to survive the "Fate Whirlpool Tower" in the "Endless Abyss Mishasha".
However, Kenroshi Okami made one mistake, which was that he did not take the little girl's thoughts into consideration.
When Adela escaped from the Tower and saw the true face of Phike, the person she wanted to see most was her idiot second brother, Kenroshi Okami.
But what Adela didn't expect was that this idiot second brother wasn't there?!
It was a pity that she was thinking about all sorts of ways to avoid a conflict between her idiot second brother and Fike in the tower, but in the end, this guy had already left and didn't even wait for her outside!
Adela was so heartbroken at that time!
This second brother, whom she had quite respected, actually didn't care about her life or death.
So, when Adela returned to the werewolf royal territory, she was still in a very angry mood.
In her opinion, although Fei Ke was a jerk, at least he had her in mind and had truly risked his life to save her. On the other hand, her idiotic second brother, who said all sorts of nice things, actually ran off without caring about his sister's life... How could a "plan," no matter how important, be more important than his sister's life?!
Therefore, when Kenroshi Okami walked towards Adela with a calm appearance and a happy heart, Adela immediately rolled her eyes at him without mercy.
"Get away from me."
Adela walked away angrily, not wanting to talk to this ruthless second brother.
