Fenrir's Perspective
_____________
I pushed those thoughts aside and proceeded down the stairs. There was nothing I could do about these thoughts swirling inside of . Although Arthur and I shared so qualities, we ca from different situations.
As soon as I reached the lobby, Arthur and rleen greeted my eyes. But they got themselves focused on talking to each other and never noticed my figure. I did not want to announce myself to the pair, since it was a waste of ti.
So I stood on the ground and waited for Arthur and rleen to notice as I listened to their conversation.
The two of them talked about our circumstances while adding situations. Arthur ntioned fitting in soone's shoes, particularly at . Since Arthur and rleen knew little about my past, they wanted to understand my actions. But all I did to this pair was shove them around as if they were mushrooms found on roads.
But Arthur concluded their conversation by saying sothing that caught my interest. rleen also amplified that thought first, which won her the kind of an image inside my head. Among all the humans I t throughout hundreds of years, rleen and Arthur were the only people who cared about ..
Usually, people would call many nas, especially a monster. And since those people hunted us down, our pack tried attacking them. We did not want to back down without giving up a fight, considering that we had more unique abilities than them. But with those numbers that humans had, we always choose our battles.
But these two changed it all. Arthur and rleen never treated as an enemy or soone that could pose a threat. These two people treated as their equal, while introducing to the villagers of this place.
Arthur and rleen even influenced others to like , especially the kid, before entering this shelter. That child went to and hugged while saying, "you saved us! Thank you!". Those kind gestures made my day. And it was all thanks to these two individuals.
They did not care if I was a werewolf that ca from a mysterious origin. Arthur never asked about my past life, and rleen never insulted .
While lost in thought, I continued looking at their conversation. It looked like the two had already finished talking about the topic. So I had to step forward and break the silence.
"Of course. Of course, we will support Fenrir." Arthur said to rleen while caressing her head.
rleen coloured her face with a Fuschia hue like the flowers planted inside a garden. But that was not all. I did not know if I wanted to focus on the head pat Arthur did or the words ca out from his mouth.
However, all those thoughts went to the drain as the two finally noticed my figure.
"What are you two doing?" I asked, while raising my brow.
"Patting rleen? What? She likes it!" Arthur retorted, while shrugging his shoulders.
"Co on. Let's leave this place already before sunset. I don't want to travel at night. It's hard to see and fight against monsters and bandits," I said, and went towards the door. "You know I can't leave without the two of you. You're my guide and map!"
But before I could leave the shelter, Arthur called out for . I turned around and complied with his instructions while crossing my arms.
"What do you want right now?" I asked.
Arthur went towards , with rleen tagging behind. Nobody was inside this room right now. And if I could give a hunch, Arthur and rleen had planned sothing without including . It was all written on their faces.
"I want you to have this," Arthur mumbled, and activated sothing that I did not know.
A brilliant colour escaped from his hands while conjuring multiple magic circles at once. He fiddled sothing in the air, which made lean my head to the side. Within a few seconds, a transparent box appeared, which was not there originally.
[Fenrir is currently a mber of your party. Do you wish to share the system with her?]
Those were the words written on the box floating in mid-air. Nobody told what was happening at my fore.
rleen, who was usually a scaredy-cat for these circumstances, deed this normal to her eyes. She did not react at all and let Arthur do his work.
Two options written below the box said those words. Arthur slid his fingers and answered "yes" at the minimized box. After a few seconds, the glowing light went inside of . That luminance travelled through my arcane veins and amplified every skill I had as a werewolf.
[Congratulations, Fenrir! You have unlocked your system thanks to Arthur's sharing skill! Because you're initially a party mber even without your system, the system will transfer all the past bonus experience points you missed to you.]
Upon reading the first box, my mana and strength increased by three folds. I tried moving around for a while and tested my abilities. And after fooling around, I concluded that the system's words had an absolute effect.
"What do you do now?" I asked, unsure about my next course of action.
"Just like what you saw from before. Click the next button or slide the box towards your right. It's like flipping a book," Arthur answered.
I followed Arthur's suggestions and swept my hand towards my right. It was what Arthur had ntioned. The box changed and delivered the next written text in front of .
"Can you see this?" I asked.
Arthur answered by nodding his head.
I resud reading the box with widened eyes. [Because you partied with Arthur and rleen, the three of you will share the sa experience points. If you do quests or kill living beings, the experience points from those would transfer to all of you.]
There were thousands of things I did not get, considering the terms used in these boxes. Arthur was without a doubt an otherworlder who possessed various arcane far from this world. However, I did not fathom that his abilities could extend like this. It amplified all my skills, including the ones I rarely use. The abilities that I deed worthless had proved otherwise after receiving countless enhancents from Arthur's systems.
"So this is the power you possess." I grumbled. "Why did you choose to have a system? Did you realise I could kill you and use this system of my own accord?"
"Even if you say that, Fenrir, I wouldn't believe you," Arthur replied.
"Why?!"
"If you really want to kill , you would have done it already. I laid out multiple chances already where rleen and I were vulnerable to you. But you never hard us at all. I didn't say you're harmless. But you value our lives and other people. I an, you saved this kingdom, and those injured villagers, after all. Calling you a murderer would mock , not you," Arthur explained, while nodding to himself.
rleen went towards and continued Arthur's lengthy speech. "We don't treat you as a monster, Fenrir! You're one of us! Although you may be grumpy sotis. But that's just you, Fenrir! I really love you! And I really want to talk with you!"
After hearing their thoughts, I froze in place and stared at the two of them. Arthur and rleen painted their faces with a beam and invited to the door.
"Now that you have a system, travelling would be more fun and easier! Those bandits that you've talked of won't stand a chance against us, not with my Clarent around!" Arthur exclaid, while raising his rusty sword.
"No fair, Arthur! I'm strong too! I have more arcane than you!" rleen retorted.
The two of them quarrelled like a child as they went ahead without . Even though they went outside, Arthur and rleen knew I would follow behind them.
After gathering my thoughts, I clenched my feet and ran straight outside to et them. As I had expected, those two waited for with a wagon resting in front of us. Even the rcenaries stood tall beside the caravan, greeting us with blissful smiles.
"Here's your reward for saving this kingdom. and saving the injured villagers," Galehaut, the chief of this kingdom, announced.
He showcased the carriage and toured us inside. Galehaut also ntioned that the rcenaries amplified the defences of this wagon, making it immune with bow and weak physical attacks. It could even withstand a blow from a bastard's sword, which Green demonstrated.
"Thank you, Galehaut! I'm surprised you even upgraded this bad boy for us!" Arthur replied, with his eyes studying the caravan.
"It's nothing compared to what you did for the kingdom," the chief replied, while looking at us three. "It seems that it's ti for your party to go. We will miss you, Arthur, rleen, and Fenrir."
Even the old man of this village treated as soone else and not a monster.
