I took a deep breath as I stared at the wolf who was working hard to persuade the man.
The man just opened the wolf’s snout and pulled out the hem of his clothes from its mouth in annoyance.
Even though I was dying, it seed that he had no intention of waking up from his delusion.
“It sounds like you are really old for not being able to deal with one of these things and even getting a dog to worry about you. What’s the point of only rejuvenating your appearance?”
I spit out the blood that ca up and glared at the man.
“I am not your master. I have never had a disciple like you.”
After hitting the wedge with a vicious force, the man stopped.
“No, really? You sll like Master?”
The man neared with his upper body bent. He sniffed and pressed his face against my bloody shoulder.
Then he hardened like a stone.
“…… uh?”
The man took off his hood. He quickly unraveled the mysterious cloth that had tightly wrapped his eyes, nose and mouth.
Lightly pignted ivory blonde hair fluttered at the man’s shoulder height. The forehead was exposed, followed by the eyelids and eyelashes.
The man opened his eyes hastily.
Because we were close, I could tell at a glance how extraordinary his pupils were. His eyes looked like they had been pierced with athyst. It wasn’t a taphor, it was a real gem. As if it was cut in the shape of an eye, it sparkled in various ways from the reflected light. It looked like the mineral that was stuck in the wolf’s forehead.
The man who looked at with jeweled eyes shook his head.
“I am still not good at being a human, so please forgive . I wonder what will happen if I don’t understand that body.”
“…… being a human.”
The man observed carefully with a completely different attitude than before.
“There must be a lot of things Master, no, you wanted to ask. It appears you’re going to die no matter what.”
“Thanks for letting know now.”
“Puppy, bring her and follow .”
The man started walking while talking to the wolf. He said he was not good at being a human, so maybe that man is also a beast? First, I asked a light question.
“Are you acquainted with this wolf?”
“All the beasts that live here know .”
Umm. Sowhere in here, there must also be a beastly Gilbert. Because Aedis sent him over the gate.
The man added how he interpreted my expression.
“My Master teacher told to help. It must have been because he thought I would heal you sohow.”
The man clicked his tongue.
“He will co on ti. Well, surviving even after going out of the gate is brave…….”
“…….”
“I’m saying this just in case, but humans don’t know how to treat themselves, so don’t bring other people.”
I didn’t have the energy to respond, so I decided to say it.
“You must be a professional magic healer.”
“It’s not that much, but I got caught by Master after an accident, so I’m volunteering for free.”
“The one who you called Master.”
A slight shadow fell on the man’s face and then disappeared. And he said it conclusively without even having ti to continue with the question.
“He died as he wished.”
“…….”
“…… it was all that was left.”
The man mumbled very softly.
Soon he stopped walking. However, there was only a light fog in all directions, and it was still a pure white snowfield where the boundary between the sky and the earth was indiscernible.
The man turned around and asked.
“You seem like a noble person, but in which building would you like to rest? Think about it.”
I naturally thought of the Cyclan Castle.
It was only reflexively thinking about the question, but the fog cleared, and Cyclan Castle appeared.
But it wasn’t exactly the sa as the real thing. Like a mirage that could disappear forever, the walls and gates were achromatic.
Regardless of the size of the castle, the man showed displeasure.
“It’s too big. It should be a little small because it is cumberso to move around.”
Was this the man’s ability?
This ti, I thought of the small house of the previous Grand Duke, which was sitting lonely in front of the gate.
Seeing the small house reproduced in achromatic colors again, the man frowned.
“Oh, I hate this house.”
Still, the man willingly went inside.
For a while, I was able to forget the pain while watching this strange phenonon.
The interior of the achromatic house was reproduced in the sa way. A few pieces of furniture were also bleached white.
I got off the wolf’s back and moved onto the sofa.
The wolf supported then sat at my feet and whined. anwhile, the man offered a pill.
“Do not chew, swallow.”
I took the pill, but asked without putting it in my mouth.
“Are you a beast?”
“Yes. So I don’t get sick like humans. I know you have great patience.”
“…….”
“You look very hurt, but you don’t make a sound.”
I looked at the wolf rumbling at my feet.
“Kiing…….”
I can’t believe that guy, but what about this one?
I put the pill in my mouth.
As soon as he confird that I was swallowing, the man suddenly pulled out a dagger.
“Ah, ugh, give a warning!”
My God!
I wrapped my arms around my shoulders and let out a moan.
The feeling of the blade escaping from the flesh remained so distinct.
“Does the pain go away if I give a warning?”
The man spoke calmly and looked at the dagger.
It was only for a mont that I thought that I would rather he rip off my shoulder.
There was no more blood on my palms as if the bleeding had stopped.
“Wait until I figure out what poison it is. Don’t walk around because you won’t be able to survive on those pills only.”
I was wondering how to determine it, but the man licked the dagger with his unusually long tongue.
His eyes narrowed.
“How did it happen?”
“I was stabbed by a friend, and soone was controlling her.”
I said too much, but the man showed enough interest.
“Oh.”
“Would you like to hear the details? It wouldn’t be interesting because it’s about the human world.”
“It’s not about the human world, it’s about Master, so it’s interesting.”
Here we go again?
“Well, even if I’m not your master.”
“You are Master.”
“What about your original master?”
“My Master’s was dead. So it got transferred.”
The man’s face was serious, even as he spoke nonsense.
The man mistook for the dead master, but he sniffed and imdiately confird that I wasn’t. Since then, the man had been convinced of his master’s death with a fairly calm attitude.
It’s just because I, mistaken for his master, wasn’t actually his master.
What the hell is the connection between and that man’s master? What am I missing?
I tilted my head and stared at the man.
“Do you know who I am?”
The man engraved onto his two pupils like the jewel itself.
“Master of Ambrosia. The oldest light, Hyperion. The one on high. The one who descended to the lowest place. A great star who has grown old leaving only two arms to embrace all things.”
“…….”
“That is my master.”
“…….”
“But Master went to die, and you brought Master’s blood.”
I blinked slowly.
Master’s blood.
…… The blood of the beast in my arms.
“The Master you spoke of…….”
“Yes, he died, but now that you are Master, it’s as if he’s rejuvenated. You will have to take so responsibility for .”
The corners of the man’s mouth lifted for the first ti. It was a very faint laugh.
“You don’t suspect that I forcibly took your master’s blood?”
The man put on an absurd look on the question whether he was too naive.
“He is not the one to lose his blood to the people who work today and tomorrow with just such things.”
Today and tomorrow…… I think I’m going to die within an hour.
I retorted bluntly.
“Maybe I’m not the only one who jumped on him.”
“Even if all the humans outside the gate were to rush in at once, the result would be the sa.”
The man’s voice was firm. So I didn’t understand.
The caring beast who called a girl was in a very old state. Even though we were not of the sa race, I felt his age, and I could not have guessed the distant years he must have lived.
“The beast I t worked even harder just to pass today or tomorrow, much more than I have today.”
As I thought it was just nonsense, the man replied.
“He lived for ten thousand years.”
“…….”
Thanks to my husband, I was able to accept 500 years, but…….
The man swung the dagger behind his back and stood in front of .
“Can I ask a question now? Who is the one who manipulated Master’s friend that you were poisoned by a poison that humans do not possess?”
Whether I liked it or not, I think he’s going to keep calling Master. Should I take this as a treatnt fee….
I gave up.
“My husband’s older brother. He is also the biological father of my adopted son.”
The man’s expression changed to a different color.
“…… Is that household alright?”
“I’m in the process of making it okay.”
“Even beasts don’t live like that.”
This punk…
I glared at him.
“Hey, if you’re going to call Master, show respect and courtesy.”
The man got gloomy.
“Your ‘previous’ Master wouldn’t want that either.”
“‘Current’ Master is a little different.”
The man was dissatisfied, but he dropped the bag he was carrying, stating that he would not say it out loud. He then took out so strange-looking herbs.
“Well, let’s say so. Then, my dear Master, I will treat you, so please open your top.”
Top……. Without realizing it, I sent a cold glance mixed with contempt, and the man explained.
“I am not human!”
