The Beloved New Daughter-In-Law of the Wolf Mansion - CH 72

Bang!

There was a sound like a wolf kicking the door once more. And then.

Crack.

The door continued to break as if it were biting the door with its teeth. It was clear that the door would open at this rate.

“Linsy, what’s that…?”

Leona asked with a pale face. I shook my head urgently.

“I, I don’t know either…wolf…? The mansion was noisy, so I opened the door for a moment, and it was wandering in the hallway…”

I opened the window and looked down.

Below, a wolf and a lion were tangled and fighting.

“…What the hell is going on here?”

Presumably, those wolves and lions seemed to be servants of Yeckhart’s mansion or knights of the Fernando family.

The question was, why were they fighting each other in their beast form?

‘I have to call Kendrick….’

But Kendrick’s study was on the first floor, and we were on the second floor.

So, in other words, it meant that I had to pass the wolf breaking the door, or I had to pass the wolf and the lion fighting under the window to get to Kendrick.

‘But why can’t I see Kendrick yet—?’

Is Sir Kendrick also walking around in beast form?

I got goosebumps when I thought that far. Leona was almost crying now.

Then.

Bang!

Eventually, after breaking down the door, the wolf stood tall on the threshold, exhaling.

Grrrr—.

The brown wolf stepped into the room, wrinkling his nose as if threatening us.

“…h, hey… Uh, could you release your transformation? I think you’ve gone a little too far, mother!”

I tried to talk to the wolf and induce it to solve the transformation, but it didn’t seem to understand me.

The wolf banged its foot. I opened my eyes wide in surprise.

I held Leona’s hand tightly and took three steps back.

And I watched the wolf while almost bumping into the window sill.

‘What should I do?’

There was nowhere to run.

I looked once at the giant wolf and once over the wide open window.

But.

‘…That, don’t tell me.’

In the distance, two familiar birds were seen circling.

‘It’s a peregrine falcon.’

Peregrine Falcon Knights.

An elite order of knights made up of peregrine falcons, it was a knights’ order that moved only under the orders of my father, Arthur Raniero.

It served like the Shadow Knights of Yeckhart. But—.

‘But why is the peregrine falcon here—ah.’

I finally figured out the situation.

‘They came to take me.’

Yeckhart’s main residence was heavily guarded, so it was impossible to intrude into the airspace, so there was no doubt that my father was playing tricks during the festival.

Because they want to take me back.

However, when the situation was not favorable, it seemed to be watching from afar for now.

I decided never to transform myself, no matter what.

Those peregrine hawks might take me out if I transform into my bird form.

‘Then the servants who are transformed….’

But is there a drug that forces you to transform into your beast form?

If so, how did they feed the people in the mansion?

I stepped back from the window and clenched Leona’s hand more tightly.

“Leon—”

Leona was now showing her teeth. If Leona had been able to transform, she would have turned into a lion.

Leona, who had been afraid of a mysterious situation the whole time, wiped away tears with her pajamas sleeves.

And.

“Where—”

Leona spread her small palm towards the giant wolf.

The crimson light clumped from the small palm. Leona’s golden eyes sparkled in the dark.

“Obey my word.”

It was the power of the lion family, obedience.

But the problem was that the giant wolf was too big and too strong as an opponent. It was too much for young Leona to handle with her abilities.

The lion clan’s ability was as strong as it was dangerous, and there was a disadvantage that the ability did not work on opponents stronger than themselves.

Therefore, Leona’s powers couldn’t have worked on the adult individual. But Leona didn’t give up and used her power.

“You…”

Leona showed her teeth and growled. I held back Leona.

“Leon!”

Leona stumbled. Suddenly, she seemed tired from using too much of her power. I quickly helped Leona.

Grrrrr—.

Meanwhile, a more agitated wolf strode into the room.

Now the wolf’s snout was really close. It came close enough to swallow me at once if it opened its mouth wide.

Then.

“Linsy! Ugh!”

Arsene, who ran to my room, narrowed his forehead when he saw a giant wolf.

“What are you doing? Release your beast form right now!”

“Arsene, it’s no use. I don’t think we can communicate!”

I stopped breathing for a second.

‘…Can’t communicate?’

But this situation, I’ve seen it somewhere—.

Ah.

It was only then that I remembered the memory of my previous life.

The memories of my past life gradually faded during my stay in Yeckhart, but I had unforgettable memories.

I mean, the same day the wolf clan lost their mind and attacked Raniero.

When I was dying in the fire—.

The wolf in front of me seemed to have lost its mind like a wolf clan at that time.

And the wolf and the lion who was fighting under the window a while ago.

Seeing that no one is coming to save us even in this situation—.

All the servants of the mansion may have lost their minds.

But, how—.

The reason why the wolf clan lost their mind in a previous life was because it was assimilated with the sadness and anger of Kendrick Yeckhart, the head of the clan.

If so—.

‘What happened to Sir Kendrick!’

I raised my head sharply.

At that time, Arsene flinched as if to approach me.

“Arsene, stay there!”

I shouted at Arsene to stop provoking the wolf in front of me.

The wolf turned its head, looked at Arsene, and growled at me again.

It was only then that I realized.

‘Ah, Arsene is a wolf clan, so it doesn’t attack him.’

That’s why they’re trying to attack me and Leona. Because we’re not a part of wolf clan.

Arsene’s face was white. Cain, who was standing behind Arsene the whole time, opened his mouth.

“W, what about I use my ability.”

Cain took off the gloves he had been wearing all along. But it was faster for the wolf to approach me than for Cain to use this power.

The wolf came close to me and Leona and opened its huge mouth.

Then.

Grrrr—!

The wolf, who had been growling and furrowing his nose, let out a howl after being hit in the back of the head by something.

I looked up.

“Damn, what the hell is going on here?”

Kendrick stood there in mess.

It seemed to appear out of the shadows using his ability.

“Linsy, Leon, are you okay?”

“Yes, it’s okay.”

“What? Yes, I’m fine. What about you, Sir Kendrick?

Kendrick used a command to subdue a huge wolf.

They lost their mind, but they seemed to obey the order of the head of clan. The obedient wolf trudged out of the room with blank eyes.

“I’m fine. I fell asleep, and the mansion is a mess…Arsene, Cain. Come here.”

When Kendrick called Arsene and Cain, two children rushed to him and held him.

“The first priority is to deal with it. The wolf clan has a command, so it’s okay. But…”

The problem was the lion family and the snake family.

The escorts brought by Cain and Leona were entangled with the knights of the wolf family and were biting and fighting each other.

He even said that there was a knight who was already seriously injured and fell out and was only breathing.

“We’re in trouble, I’m going to tie them all up for now.”

Kendrick crumpled his brows and swept away his sweaty hair.

Kendrick easily overpowered wolves, lions, and snakes scattered all over the mansion and gathered them in the front yard of the mansion.

The wolves obediently followed Kendrick’s words without needing to be subdued, and the lions and snakes were unable to move because of Kendrick’s  powers and shadows.

Grrrrr—!

I stared at the howling beast, and held Leona and Arsene’s hands.

Cain was seen clasping Arsene’s hand with his gloved hand.

“We can’t leave it like this, so I have to make them release the beast form…”

The wolf clan followed Kendrick’s words, but didn’t listen as much as to the order to release the beast form.

I looked up at Kendrick.

“A while ago, I saw Raniero’s Peregrine Falcon Knights. They shouldn’t wander around here… so it’s probably Raniero’s plot.”

And I spoke clearly.

Kendrick listened carefully to me and nodded.

“I’ll check if it’s still there. We’ll solve this situation first and then….”

He lengthened his words.

“Anyway, I don’t understand how they could have done this to Yeckhart’s mansion. All of the servants are loyal servants who have worked at Yeckhart for at least ten years. In addition, I told them to inspect their belongings and luggage thoroughly when they leave the territory…”

Kendrick gathered all the people who lost their mind in the front yard and walked around the mansion.

In the mansion, more than half of the employees were sleeping as if they were dead.

Kendrick murmured softly while looking at the servants who fell asleep quietly and didn’t wake up.

“Giles flower…?”

“Giles flower?”

Kendrick’s face seemed pale. He said with a nod.

“It’s a flower that makes you falls asleep like death after a few hours if you eat just a small amount. However, if you eat too much—”

Kendrick nodded.

“They lose their mind wit and run wild. They couldn’t have put it in the food of so many people, so the pollen must have gotten into the alcohol and food that was given out at the festival. But… how the hell did they do that?”

Kendrick said slowly.

“The Giles flower is a flower that became extinct a long time ago. There’s no way it’ll show up again.”

“Then…can we detoxify it?”

I looked into Kendrick’s eyes and asked cautiously.

“There is a record that the deer clan succeeded in making an antidote a long time ago, so I should call Mr. Hern first.”

I listened to Kendrick and asked carefully.
