Chapter 37 (1/2)
Chapter 37 Lycanthrope (Part 3)
“Lost to a human?”
The fathers face is clouded in suspicion
Frole of men can be heard
Helgi pays no heed to it and speaks
“I do not kno many of them there are We didn’t even see a face and three of them lost in an instant I am sorry, father”
The interhter from around, suddenly stops
In this place there is not a single i It is because within the clan, all men compete for rank and women
But that doesn’t th
If this Helgi returned without a chance to fight and after losing his brothers, that is not a proble it off as incompetence
Three of the serious is happening here
“You did not even see a face? That is insufficient information”
At his father’s words, Helgi gestures to his dongsaeng’s corpse beside him
“That is why I brought the body of my brother”
He flips over his dongsaeng’s corpse and shows him the back
“Soed itself The huet opponents from a far distance”
“Inspect the body”
“Yes”
Helgi inspects his dongsaeng’s corpse He puts his hand inside the wound in the back and fishes around Then, soi’s hand
He takes it out and shows it to his father It is a small crunched up piece of metal
“You say so this small flew faster than wind?”
“Yes, father”
“It has a dangerous weapon”
“I auess is there is also a summoned spirit”
A cold silence finds them
An unknoeapon that slayed Helgi’s brothers in an instant And a summoned spirit too
The human that stepped foot into their territory this tihtly
“First, we should knoho this human is and how many there are”
“Father, I will go and find out!”
Out of the blue, one lycanthrope bursts out from the clan with confidence
‘Jason?’
Helgi’s face becomes distorted
Jason is the st his different mothered brothers
Seeing Helgi’s return from failure in this incidence, Jason quickly volunteered hii
“Do so”
Father doesn’t seem to really care who takes this job
“Thank you! I will!”
Jason departs gleefully The brothers from Jason’s mother follow behind him
‘This isn’t good’
Helgi’s expression becomes shadowed
In the clan his father reigns over, lycanthropes normally center on a maternal line and form factions
Up to now, Helgi and his brothers who are fro power, but with this incident, everyone but Helgi has died
On top of it all, there are seven brothers from Hera, the third wife
If they succeed in this task too, they may use this to have Jason rise to the second in command
Of course, personal strength is i, Jason isn’t weak If they were to fight, Helgi would have to prepare for possible death for this rival
‘But nothing is definite yet Jason is impatient so he may spoil the job’
They will definitely succeed in at least the scouting They just have to approach to a visible range
But after succeeding in the scouting, what if Jason gets greedy and attacks the humans?
The picture of the hue draws itself naturally
For the clan as a whole, losing i, the fall of his rival is the best outcome
‘I guess I should hope that this Jason bastard dies’
Helgi anticipates Jason’s reckless bravado
“Haha, did you say Helgi’s face scrunch up?”
“It looked like he was chewing shi+t”
Jason’s brothers snort
“Losing to a hu, he should know he’s eh all that tii’s limit is reached”
Jason slandered Helgi plenty and his brothers agreed
Father’s rule of the clan was already going on 26 years
Fro history saw a lot of change
The rowth
In the history of the clan, there was never a lycanthrope as strong as father No one could challenge father
Not only that, but father forbid unnecessary rank struggles within the clan
Challenges and rank fights didn’t occur so reatly declined and due to that, the clan’s numbers increased
Father also found a way to procure food without hunting That was a re the terrain and hunting, they were able to easily obtain food
As food became plentiful, the clan became ever prosperous The clan that was no er than 100
At first there was a lot of dissatisfaction at father’s strange policies but now, everyone praises hiht prosperity to the Silver clan
But internal dissent still exists
And brother Jason is the prime example
‘A lycanthrope is always about strength! Rankfather’s ass and raising rank, that’s wrong!’
Jason had a lot of pity for Helgi
He never thought that his strength fell behind that of Helgi
But Helgi’s quick wit and intelligence enabled him to cleanly carry out his father’s commands, and thick headed Jason couldn’t do so Because of this, the position of the clan had no choice but to follow Helgi
Up until a little while ago
‘Now is the chance’
Father’s governing style is wrong
The clan’s nue and become weak
Since not having to hunt to live, their senses have di to the likes of a human
Jason’s thoughts are like this
‘We have to return to the way it was before I will do that’
He, of course, has no intention of challenging father Because he’s too strong
