Reincarnated As A Wolf With Cheats - Chapter 29
In this world, most of the monsters have names and it is those very names which they are proud of.
Each and every name has a different meaning and as the time passes, the names may change too, though those are a rare instances.
The Spirit of the world is what gives a name to the monsters. The names automatically get attached to their souls.
When they reach a certain age, those names become evident and then they would be a named monster. Therefore, calling out the name of someone superior to you unless they aren’t really close or have given the permission, is similar to committing a crime.
However, a superior monster or a monster of equal rank could call out the names of the inferior ones or the ones that are equal to them.
Shin was unaware of that. He just blurted that out while thinking that it would have been the best to say.
*gulp*
‘Oh God… why the heck am I doing such idiotic things?’
‘It would have been better if I had just stated something else instead of calling out his freaking name!’
Kira walked slowly towards Shin. His huge fangs were clearly seen despite him trying to hide it.
‘He is gonna kill me!’, Shin closed his eyes while thinking that.
He expected to get eaten or at least injured, but something unexpected happened.
Kira raised his huge paw and slowly put them on Shin’s small back.
“Haha, that’s right, he is going to join us and he indeed is a healer!”, Kira said this while smiling.
“Ehhhhh?”, all the wolves where shocked by this.
They never expected Kira to behave in such a way. They couldn’t even believe the fact that a little pup was allowed to call Kira by his name.
‘D…dear…?’, even Siara was so shocked that she felt like crying.
She thought that Kira would teach a good lesson but it seemed like he allowed him to call that.
It essentially broke her heart and tears were about to leave her eyes. But she controlled herself since she was in front of her people.
‘So does that mean…’
‘That pup is at a higher rank when compared to His Highness?’, they started murmuring amongst themselves.
All of them got chills running down their spines just by imagining someone as strong as their Lord joining them.
All of them respected Kira, not because he was King, but because he was kind and strong. He helped all those that required help and treated everyone with a smile.
He thought of them as his own family which the other wolves or other leaders couldn’t even imagine.
He was the strongest in their pack. He could alone take down a ferocious Grizzly bear with just one attack and if he wanted, he could destroy other wolf packs quite easily.
In the entire White wolf clan, he was the strongest. Only two other white wolves of different clans were as strong as him regardless of which, he was seen as the mightiest one.
So, just the thought of the addition of someone as strong as him or higher ranking than him gave all of them unimaginable strength from their insides.
‘Phew, thank God…’
‘By seeing Siara’s face and everyone’s reaction, I thought that calling other’s name was some sort of taboo…’
‘I’m glad that nothing happened…’
And just as Shin had thought about this, he could feel Kira’s claws in his back.
“Ouch, that hur-”
And when Shin turned his head towards Kira to say that, he could still find a dark aura lingering around him.
‘You just survived today because of them, if you call me by my name again then you will be as good as dead.’ – those words seemed to have been clearly written on his face.
*gulp*
Shin nodded his head vigorously while sweating profusely as if he understood everything that Kira wanted to say.
‘If I had opposed to him saying my name or if I would have killed him, it would have not only took away a potential wolf from us, but also could have lowered everyone’s morale.’, was what Kira thought.
Despite being angry, he was quite composed and thought it out clearly. Indeed, those are one of the few characteristics of a leader or a king.
‘But I wonder, how will he fare…’
‘Even a healer can’t possibly heal everyone continuously, can he?’, Kira was indeed right.
Despite being a healer, if the mana capacity or the mana pool is not big enough, then just after healing one or two minute injuries, the healer might end up fainting or falling asleep.
That would be the characteristics of a bad healer, so Kira wanted to now inquire about that from Shin.
“Let’s go inside…”, Kira commanded.
There were numerous dens in the nearby areas and the wolves preferred to live inside that.
Since there were many wolf pups, it was the best place to protect them.
Among all the dens, there was a den which was three times larger than others and was situated at a higher altitude, at least 8-10 meters higher than others.
Kira was walking towards that very den. Siara was doing the same and the young wolf pup whom Shin had saved earlier also followed towards the said den.
‘If this den was any larger, it could easily be called as a cave..’, was what Shin thought.
Regardless, all of them entered the den which was a bit dark but still everything was visible probably due to the shiny crystals that emitted light that were placed there.
Kira went close to the raised platform inside the den and sat on it. While the den was compared to the palace where king lived, the raised flat platform could be compared to the thrown.
“Now boy, tell me about yourself…”, Kira said.
Siara went towards a corner with the young wolf pup and sat there while watching and hearing keenly everything.
“Ahem…”
“I am Shin and…”
And just as he had said that, Kira interrupted and forced to pause by saying, “Stop right there…”
“Your name…”
“You keep on saying your name is… Shin..?”
“…”
“Yes? Is something weird with that?”, Shin asked.
“Weird you say… haha, what is normal about that name anyway?”, Kira asked while laughing.
‘Ugh, I have no idea what’s the issue with name…’
‘And this freaking world, why is a fuss created just for names!?’
‘I just escaped a death like situation…’
‘Now I can see another death flag rising!’, Shin pitied himself while thinking that.
“…”
To be continued…
