Keep attacking girls and try not to be killed by them

However, first Herbert and then Kenroshi, two of his best children, left him like this, which made it really difficult for him to cheer up in a short time.

Sometimes, Noreson even thought, how great it would be if there were a time when he would need to sacrifice himself for the werewolf clan, because then he could go to another world and make amends to the children.

Noreson was immersed in pain and unable to extricate himself. Fortunately, a clear voice appeared at the right time and awakened him from the quagmire of sinking.

"Uh... Dad, what are you doing kneeling here?"

Noreson's youngest daughter, Adela, appeared out of nowhere and looked at her father, the clan leader, with disgust.

10.69 - The journey begins

"Ahem...it's nothing."

As soon as he heard Adela's voice, Noreson immediately put away the sad expression on his face and stood up as if nothing had happened.

"Just now, the ancestors appeared here and gave me orders. You arrived a step late, so you didn't see them."

There was no trace of Noreson's previous anxiety and pessimism in his calm tone. As the patriarch, it was a basic quality for him to not let others see his weakness.

However, Adela was not "another person". She was related to Noreson by blood and could tell at a glance that something was wrong with her father.

"Dad, the soul of our second brother Kenruxi has returned to heaven. It's time for you to get over your sorrow."

Such blunt words mercilessly exposed Noreson's scars, leaving him at a loss as to how to answer his little daughter.

Seeing this, Adela knew that she had guessed right, and immediately took advantage of the situation and continued to rub salt into her father's wounds, as if salt was free!

"Although I'm just an insignificant figure in the tribe, I know that many people are eyeing your position, Dad. Think about it, Dad. What would happen to us if your position was taken by someone else? Do you want to see your wives sleeping with other men?"

crit.

A complete critical hit.

Adela clearly saw that there was fire in Father Noreson's eyes.

When was the last time I saw Dad this angry? It seemed like that idiot Impati had sparked an all-out war between the Werewolves and the Dogmen.

[Note: Impati Okami is the thirteenth son of Noresen.]

"Ah, Dela..."

When Father Noreson called Adela's name, Adela felt that even the air was vibrating.

Being able to make her father so angry, she knew that her goal had been achieved - as for the punishment she would suffer, it was nothing to Adela.

After all, Adela, known as the "little devil" in the tribe, has basically experienced all kinds of punishment.

Then, Adela, who was determined to cheer her father up as soon as possible, happily got half a year's worth of free wood-cutting work, plus cleaning the toilets for each wolf chief's wife every day.

There is no doubt that this once again refreshed the severity of Adela's punishment.

The clever and resourceful Adela would naturally not accept punishment obediently, so just one week later, Adela sneaked away from the werewolf territory again. This is a story for later.

Back to the topic, thanks to Adela's provocation, the Wolf King Chief Noreson finally returned to consciousness.

No matter how regrettable the deaths of Herbert and Kenroshi were, Noreson had to keep looking forward, otherwise he would let down more of his family and tribesmen.

In addition, there is actually no need for the ancestors to remind him, as Noreson has already made preparations for the "Day of Black Moon".

The werewolf clan has been ravaged by the "moon-eating monster" so many times in history. It is time to put an end to this shameful past...Noreson thought so.

In order to achieve this goal, Noreson planned to go against his ancestors' teachings this time. Instead of letting his people fight to the death, he would quietly create a passage to lead the "moon-eating monster" to the ruins of the werewolf royal family's ancestral hall.

Noreson believed that if the "moon-eating monster" ran to the ancestral temple ruins and caused chaos, the ancestors would never wait until the last moment to show up and take action.

[Note: The Werewolf Royal Family Ancestral Hall was destroyed by Jiang Ran using the "Catastrophe War Horn: Goblin Soul" in the previous "Werewolf Royal Family Arc."]

On the same day, at 6:57 a.m.

The border between the Republic of Mana and the Emirate of Vanya

━━━━━━━━━━

When the sun, representing the arrival of a new day, shines on the land of the Prison Star World, all members of the Dark Rabbit Clan are ready to go.

After several years, the Dark Rabbit Clan, who had become accustomed to living in seclusion in the same place, were forced to embark on a journey to find a new home again.

The old and frail Dark Rabbit Queen, Wusuoqi, stood on the tall treetops and gave a brief but sincere speech to her people.

She led by example and did not take any means of transportation. Instead, like everyone else, she used her feet to open up the future of the Dark Rabbit clan.

As for why the Dark Rabbit Clan's means of transportation are so scarce, it is mainly because the routes they travel are all through rugged mountains, and they cannot use conventional horse-drawn carriages.

On this special road, only the tamed rockback lizards of the Dark Rabbit Clan could help carry supplies. There were only seven adult rockback lizards in the entire tribe. Such a precious resource, of course, could not be used to take care of the Dark Rabbit Queen's special needs.

However, despite her age, the Dark Rabbit Queen Wusuoqi is still a seventh-level combat professional. So don’t be fooled by her old lady appearance. When she is marching, she still ranks first in the entire migrating army.

On the periphery of the Dark Rabbit Clan's migrating group, there is a reconnaissance team, and all the members of the reconnaissance team are composed of the elites of the Dark Rabbit Clan.

The two Dark Rabbit girls, Fenger and Junzu, are among the reconnaissance team.

Wind Ear uses her keen hearing to help the large group avoid danger, while Gallop Foot uses his exceptional speed and eyes to confirm the situation ahead in advance.

"From now on, we will have to say goodbye to the safe rear..." Feng Er said slowly.

"Oh, forget it. It's all my fault for not being strong enough. If I could have defeated that old ratman that day, we wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble to relocate our entire clan."

Junzu took all the responsibility on herself. Although her words were as plain as boiled water without any emotion, the meaning of self-blame was expressed in her choice of words.

Fenger did not respond to Junzu's words because she was thinking about something else.

Feng Er was thinking that after their mission failed, their mother had already sent someone else to carry out the mission, but the result still turned out to be the worst situation where they had to migrate.

Is this because the old ratman is too powerful, or is it because Mother has made a series of wrong judgments?

When Feng Er thought about his mother's recent abnormal behavior, he couldn't help but start to worry.

——(Mother…)

Due to his innate defect in emotional expression, Feng'er's worries only remain in his heart and will not show on the outside.

She silently made a decision. When the migrating team stopped to rest at night, she would investigate the history of the Dark Rabbit Clan again to see if there were any common "characteristics" when each Dark Rabbit Queen was replaced.

Finally, the camera returns to our classmate Jiang Ran.

Last night, after saying goodbye to Shiiki Ruri, he marched a short distance quickly and then found a place to rest for the night.

After daybreak, with his magic power fully restored, he was just about to start a race against time to catch up with the Dark Rabbit Clan before they ran away.

10.70 - Anya of Bihu Village

As mentioned before, in order to reduce the risk of his identity being exposed, Jiang Ran has decided to abandon the alias "Frost Knight Stan".

Based on this strategy, he made full use of the opportunity by letting "Frost Knight Stan" take the blame in the Teruya Ryuja incident.

Now that Jiang Ran has said goodbye to Shiiki Ruri, there is no need for him to continue to disguise himself as the Frost Armor Knight Stan. Instead, the establishment of a "new vest" is imperative.

Jiang Ran actually already has an idea about how to create the next "new vest".

He absorbed the advantages and disadvantages of previous vests such as "Banning, Fike, Lyle, and Stan", and conceived a brand new vest from scratch: Gefix.

If nothing unexpected happens, this "Geffex" will be Jiang Ran's last alias.

[Death Future Remaining: 17 Days]

[Confession death countdown remaining: 4 days]

"Curse of the Ancestral Wolf: 50 Days Remaining"

━━━━━━━━━━

Bihu Village is an ordinary small village located on the northwestern border of the Kingdom of Wester.

The people here make a living around the clear water lake and green forest all year round and lead a peaceful life.

Anya is a little girl from Bihu Village, she is sixteen years old, and has the innocence and naturalness unique to country girls. Her unadorned face is as unforgettable as a freshly mined jade.

Like other young people of her age, Anya longs for life in a big town, but because she needs to take care of her grandparents, she has always kept her wish in her heart and worked diligently to make ends meet for her family every day.

This morning, Anya went to the Green Forest alone as usual to pick wisteria berries. These berries ripen in autumn and taste sweet. They are a delicacy loved by everyone in Bihu Village.

Anya would use the method her grandmother taught her to brew wisteria berries into a unique jam, and then sell it to traveling caravans passing through Bihu Village to earn coins.

"Strange... why are the bushes so messy today?"

The bushes that were different from usual ones caught Anya's attention. Her grandfather, who had been a hunter all his life, had taught Anya a lot of knowledge about the forest, one of which was how to judge what had happened in the forest by looking at the bushes.

"Such extensive damage... Was it a wild boar? No, it could have been a rock-back boar. For safety's sake, let's take a detour."

Anya keeps in mind the knowledge her grandfather taught her and will not take risks easily.

Although she herself had not experienced any dangerous situations, some of her peers in the village had died at the hands of monsters, which made Anya, who was already cautious, pay more attention to her own safety.

Her parents have been away from the village for more than half a year and there is still no news from them. Anya is the only support for her grandparents.

In order to let her grandparents enjoy their old age, Anya will never put herself in danger.

·

Half an hour later, after taking a long detour, Anya finally arrived near the hilly cliff where wisteria berries grew.

Just over the small hill ahead she could start picking berries.

However, just as they began to climb the hillside, Anya discovered a series of unfamiliar footprints on the ground. She immediately squatted down to check and identified that they should be the footprints of a four-legged creature. The creature had sharp claws on all four feet, shallow in front and deep in the back. It was undoubtedly a dangerous carnivorous animal... or perhaps a monster.

——(Strange, there shouldn't be any carnivores around here at this time of year, so why are there such fresh footprints?)

Anya was already alert by this time, she stopped talking to herself and only thought in her mind.

She now faces a choice: should she give up the wisteria berries that are within her reach for safety, or take a chance and give it a try?

Anya took two steps forward and three steps back. After hesitating for a long time, she finally decided to go home.

She could pick the wisteria berries later, but she only had one life. A mere basket of wisteria berries was not precious enough for her to risk her life for.

·

So Anya gritted her teeth and chose to return the same way, the longer route.

As a result, when they were less than a hundred meters away from the forest, a dark figure made Anya freeze in place, not daring to move an inch.

That dark figure was one of the top carnivores in this forest: the Rockclaw Bear.

The Rockclaw Bear is a very dangerous monster, said to be as powerful as the second level. It is a difficult creature that can only be dealt with by the reward hunter team in the town.

Anya had only heard descriptions of the Rockclaw Bear from adults. After seeing it with her own eyes today, she realized that the adults' exaggerated descriptions were not meant to scare children at all, but were real.

At this time, the Rockclaw Bear, which was standing not far away, was lying on the tree trunk and standing upright, seemingly digging out a bird's nest in the tree to eat.

This guy stood two and a half meters tall, and exuded a foul smell unique to wild beasts. Even Anya, who was standing a hundred meters away, could smell the dangerous smell.

The Rock-Claw Bear seemed to be getting impatient, so it raised its arm high, gathered its strength and swung it, and then the tree, as thick as a pillar, was cut in half.

Then, the Rockclaw Bear swung the tree again, and the tree fell down, and everything on the tree became the Rockclaw Bear's spoils.

Looking at the big guy wiggling on the ground, Anya understood everything.

Fallen bushes, footprints with sharp claws...it turns out that the one wandering in this area is not a rock-back boar, but a rock-claw bear.

Anya secretly thanked herself for not taking the risk to pick wisteria berries. If she had been discovered by the Rockclaw Bear on the unobstructed rock wall, she would have been dead.

At this moment, no matter how relieved she was, Anya's tension could not be relieved at all.

She felt as if her whole body was frozen, too stiff to move.
