Incompatible Interspecies Wives

Chapter 16

16 – Lone Wolf (4)

Ner took care of himself from the next day.

I washed my face and wiped away the traces of tears. Wash his entire body thoroughly as usual.

From noble mtl dot com

His tail was also carefully cleaned and carefully dried.

She was preparing for the wedding one by one.

But even so, she didn’t bother going out.

It was also because there were humanoids who sometimes seemed to be her red flames, and there was also a fear of meeting her own counterpart called ‘Berg’.

If I could avoid the opponent as much as possible, I wanted to avoid it.

Ner spent the afternoon being massaged by her maids.

To get rid of the swelling of her body, she called it a preparatory process to dress up more beautifully.

Of course, she hadn’t eaten recently, but she was thin enough to see.

So, Ner had a conversation with her maid, Layla, who had followed him well.

“Ner, aren’t you sick?”

“…Yes.”

“That…Ah. No.”

“…”

It was so easy for Ner to feel that Lila was taking care of herself and watching her mouth.

She said that for several days she only shed tears.

Ner also still couldn’t shake that melancholy of hers, but she had done her kindness to herself and hoped Leila wasn’t too uncomfortable she did.

“…Lyla. If there’s something you want to say, it’s okay to say it.”

“…”

“Now I am ready.”

Lila blinked and swallowed.

Then, with a bright expression, he poked Ner’s body and changed her mood to make her feel clear.

“Ner! But you were sick yesterday, so you couldn’t see Mr. Berg, right? He was really handsome!”

Ner didn’t think much of her looks.

She had no intention of judging her opponent by her appearance, as she, as a werewolf, had a terrible tail color.

But as much as Lyla noticed her intentions, Ner smiled with difficulty.

“…I see.”

“Yes! And she’s tall, and she’s got a great body!”

“…Yes.”

“And again…And again…”

Ner could not hear Lyla’s words right away.

Wait, she was thinking about how to survive the years.

What should I do, how can I survive with as little humiliation as possible?

It was difficult.

As much as she had to be a close friend to find out the main information of the Red Flames, she didn’t know how to keep that distance.

As Ner watched Layla recount her story about Berg, she remembered a favor.

“…Ah.”

“…Ner?”

While receiving her massage, Ner slowly stood up from her seat, raising her upper body.

“…Lyla. I have a favor.”

Looking at Ner like that, Lila instantly burned with enthusiasm.

“Ah…! Yes yes Anything!”

The feeling of preparing for something I didn’t want to do was really unpleasant and irritating.

“That… Can you get me some more information about this guy called Berg? Ask the members… I want to know what they usually look like.”

“…”

“Lyla, these are the usual ones. Even the bad side of him is okay, so go and find out.”

“…Ner-nim…”

“Because I have to prepare my mind…”

If he was going to get married, Ner first wanted to know who Berg was.

Maybe we can figure out a way to use him.

If he knew his appearance first, he would be less hurt when something happened to him.

You will be less surprised.

I should have been able to strengthen my mental defense even more.

Layla looked at Ner and nodded her head.

“…Yes. Yes. Of course, Ner.”

“Go away now. Can you do it?”

“Yes. Okay. I’ll find out by evening.”

Ner nodded and lay down again.

The hands of her maids, except Layla, slowly retouched Ner.

“…Ner-sama?”

While leaving her body like that, Lila’s voice rang out.

“… Huh?”

“That…Sorry…Thank you. Everything.”

With that last word, Lila left her seat.

Ner immediately understood why Layla had sent her thanks and apologies.

Actually, all werewolves in the Blackwood estate were in debt to Ner for the work of this mercenary group.

My brother Adam and I were out of Blackwood’s estate to look for any traces the scouting party had found.

“…Serious.”

Looking at the ruined forest, Adam muttered.

I was of the same opinion.

Broken and broken trees. Decaying land. Nasty stench.

The ground was destroyed on a bigger scale than anything I had seen recently.

The trees weren’t just broken and fell, they were crushed and embedded deep in the ground.

It didn’t just break down, it passed through the forest.

It seemed that the gigantic size of the boss and the size of the group we had to deal with could be seen as traces.

As expected, the number of bosses was not one or two.

Even if I couldn’t do it, I had to deal with four bosses, that is, four groups of monsters.

Occasionally, when I was resting in Blackwood Manor, I could hear the cry of the chief here and there.

Already, the scouts of the Red Flame Troops looked at a leader from a distance, but everyone said that it was the first time they had seen such a size.

An intense battle awaits us.

Giddin Blackwood, the eldest son of the Blackwood family, came out and came to Adam’s side.

“…This is just medicine. One monster really…”

Adam answered by kicking a stone rolling on the ground.

“Don’t worry. We will kill them all.”

“I believe in you. By the way… Vice-captain, are you missing this battle?”

Gidin looks at me and asks.

Similarly, Baran, who was following us, also showed interest from behind.

“I’m sure the new bridegroom is not the only one who gets hurt…”

I answer such a Gideon.

“Thank you for your concern, but we will not miss the battle. Because I have to lead my group.”

There is a faint surprise in Gidin’s eyes as he looks at me.

“…You are brave. It’s such an honor, so I think my sister will like it too.”

As expected, werewolves were a race that held honor and battle sacred.

In fact, the previous question was also intended to test me.

If I had spit out the word “Leaving out” In a fight, it might have been ignored.

It didn’t matter much.

Gidin looked at me and made a sudden proposal as if burning with enthusiasm.

“…Is it okay if I participate in this subjugation as well?”

Adam asked, tilting his head.

“Yes?”

“The new groom also participates, but I can’t be left out. I will do my best to protect my family’s territory. In fact, over the past seven years, I’ve been killing quite a few bosses. Now we are running out of soldiers, so we asked for help.”

Gidin proudly stuck out his chest.

I secretly sighed.

It wasn’t because I didn’t particularly like his proposal… It was because the werewolves’ troublesome desire for honor bothered them.

I saw too many werewolves who died like that in the previous mercenaries with Adam.

If, by any chance, Gidin went out to battle with us and he became a warrior… He would definitely get caught up in troubles that he didn’t want to imagine.

Adam’s brother also felt the same way as me, and shook his head.

“…No, that’s fine. I’ve led all of the Red Flames in the first place, so I don’t think there’s anything lacking. Gidin-nim is resting.”

But Gidin didn’t understand.

“Adam, Blackwood’s power will be of great help.”

Adam looked back at me for a moment.

I didn’t bother paying attention to him.

It was my intention to leave everything up to Adam hyung’s judgment.

Gidin looks at the hesitant brother Adam and asks.

“Adam-sama, what is your personal boss subjugation record?”

Hyung remained silent for a while before answering quietly.

“…14 Of them.”

There were only 14 bosses that Adam killed himself. It was never a low number.

There were numerous members of the mercenary corps who had not been able to upload a single subjugation record even after being immersed in the mercenaries for a long time.

“The captain is also high, but I am 26.”

Adam also expressed his admiration for Gidin’s record.

“…Surprised. I didn’t expect you to subjugate so many times… The Blackwood estate must have been attacked by quite a few monsters, right?”

“hahahaha…I tried to hold on as much as I could. In any case, it is said that it is not only the mercenaries who know how to catch the boss.”

Adam slowly stroked his chin.

After hearing the record of Gidin’s subjugation, the relief I felt was distinctly different.

It didn’t seem like he was going to participate in the passenger plane.

Besides, if you said you caught that many, there was nothing wrong with being together.

26 Was never a number that could be caught by chance.

Adam-hyung also broke the position he had stubbornly refused.

Nevertheless, my older brother was cautious.

“Gidin-nim. But you also need to understand our position. Gidin-sama, who went to subjugation… Well… If he’s a warrior. Our position is pretty embarrassing.”

“For the werewolves, being a warrior is an honorable thing. Don’t worry Blackwood won’t hold him accountable.”

“…As long as you join our mercenary squad, you must follow our rules. Are you able to obey the orders given?”

“I understand. I will definitely follow I have no intention of disturbing you.”

As Gidin nodded his head endlessly at every word, Adam finally made his decision.

“Okay. Let’s go out together.”

Gidin finally revealed with a bitter smile.

“Actually… I also want to avenge the soldiers killed by those monsters…”

To his candid words, Adam answered with a more comfortable tone.

“I understand.”

After reconnaissance, we turned around.

A dinner with Ner Blackwood was scheduled soon.

As I was preparing to go back like that, a question suddenly came from behind.
