The Beloved New Daughter-In-Law of the Wolf Mansion - CH 92

In the end, it was decided that Leona, Cain, and Ansia were the only friends I would invite. There was no one else to call.

At that time, I suddenly thought of Glene.

‘It would have been nice if Glene was there too.’

She must have smiled as she congratulated me on my marriage.

It was a pity that Glene had left.

According to Kendrick, the wedding will be a small outdoor ceremony in Yeckhart’s backyard.

“Can I not call any of the other adults?”

I asked Kendrick carefully once again.

“Yeah, you don’t have to call them.”

Kendrick nodded in a firm reply.

He added that I don’t have to worry about that.

“The date should be a month later. That way, we will be able to prepare enough.”

After our conversation with Kendrick, Arsene and I sat side by side in the garden and practiced using our ability.

“I still can’t make anything other than watering cans.”

I stared at Arsene’s face, and floated a soft light on the palm of my hand.

“Who cares, it’s great. It can only ‘bite’ for it yet.”

Arsene shrugged and lowered his hand. Then, black light gathered under Arsene’s hand, and soon a shadow wolf appeared.

But.

“Your wolf, Arsene. Don’t you think it got bigger?”

“It got a little bigger. It’s going to get bigger in the future.”

Arsene shrugged and stared at the shadow wolf.

The shadow wolf twirled in place and looked at Arsen.

“Did it grow up alone? Is it?”

“No way, I practiced hard. I practiced so hard with my Dad….”

Arsene made the end of his words longer. I opened my eyes and asked again.

“You practiced with your father? Then, no way, when you haven’t played with me in a while….”

“…That’s right.”

I narrowed my eyes and asked, and Arsene obediently agreed.

“I practiced using my abilities with Dad. At this rate… I don’t think I can do it like this.”

At Arsene’s words, the shadow wolf drooped its tail as if it understood his words.

I quickly squatted on the floor, made eye contact with the shadow wolf, and turned to Arsene.

“Aren’t you impatient? You’re only seven years old, Arsene.”

No matter how fast the beastman learns, Arsene seems a bit too smart for his age.

As expected, is it because of what happened at the last festival?

‘Hmm, no matter how fast the beastmen grow…’

Arsene was growing day by day. Now, the tiny and sickly figure of before was hard to be found.

‘He’s also the same height as me.’

I thought he would be much taller than me if he grew up a little longer.

“Bite it.”

Then, Arsene gave orders to the Shadow Wolf.

At the time,

Wooof—!

The shadow wolf, which barked once briefly, quickly drifted into the air and disappeared.

And then.

“Whoa!”

After a while, he appeared out of nowhere with a cookie in his mouth.

“You can eat it.”

Arsene shrugged.

I already ate a snack today. Can I eat it again? It was clear that I would be scolded if caught.

But I’m only seven years old.

—Seven-year-olds are weak to the temptation of snacks.

‘Of course, I’m 12 years old inside.’

What’s wrong with that? I turned my head to make sure no one was around, and then I took the cookie and put it in my mouth.

“Arsene, if you learn a little more about how to use your abilities, you’ll become a really cool person, right?”

The shadow wolf gently shook its tail again this time as if he understood me.

“Ung, but I don’t know how to practice because it’s the first time I’ve ever had this kind of ability…. That’s all I can do.”

Arsene said in depressed.

Kendrick said he was helping with the training, but it didn’t seem to work out.

Hmm. I thought about it for a while and opened my mouth.

“This is just my thought… can’t we just do it as it is  now?”

“Like now?”

“Ung, this kid can understand you, right?”

The shadow wolf responded to my words. The shadow wolf jumped up and down as if it was excited and then sat down in front of me.

“So, shouldn’t we communicate like we have a pet? I think so for some reason. It’s… It’s smart enough to understand our words.”

“…I don’t know. You want me to interact with him?”

“Yeah, don’t just give orders every day. Talk and pet it. What do you think?”

Of course, that was purely my idea.

But.

‘I feel that way for some reason.’

The feeling that if this shadow wolf continues to communicate with us, it will grow bigger someday.

Arsene didn’t seem to like it at all, but he nodded his head slowly.

“Okay… I will communicate with him.”

“Ung, good. Arsene.”

Hehe, I smiled and turned my gaze to the shadow wolf.

And.

I spread out my palm and tapped my palm with my fingers.

“Should we do a high five?”

The shadow wolf tilted its head a few times, then placed its black paws on the palm of my hand.

‘It wasn’t a high-five, but it looked like it gave me a hand….’

Still, it’s better than nothing.

It deserves praise just for giving me its hand.

And when I complimented it a lot, it twirled in front of me excitedly.

It looked more like a puppy than a wolf.

‘But you’re still cute.’

*****

The invitation wasn’t that hard because it was already my second time writing it.

Arsene had almost finished the banquet invitation, so I agreed to write it this time.

Rodri, the maid, helped us write the invitations.

There was a word with confusing spelling in the middle, so I had to get Rodri’s help.

Arsene folded the paper carefully and put it in an envelope when I wrote the letters on pretty stationery.

Then Rodri sealed it tightly with gold wax.

“Okay, it’s finished!”

I wrote down the last invitation to Ansia and handed it over to Arsene.

Arsene received the letter paper, folded it roughly, and opened his mouth.

“Wasn’t the handwriting a little crooked in the last one?”

“What are you talking about, I write it perfectly! Right, Rodri?”

“Of course, you have beautiful handwriting, so you’ll be able to write it well when you’re a little older.”

“The marriage line is not pretty now.”

“Are you going to keep doing that?”

I rolled my eyes and glared at Arsene.

Arsene giggled. Rodri watched us quietly and soon stood up.

“Then I will deliver the invitation in advance. Thank you, Young Master, Lady.”

“Yees.”

“Ung.”

I laid down my pen and fell flat on the desk.

Ugh, it’s hard.

Even though I had learned to read in my last life, things from that life were getting harder and harder to remember. This could be because I had been back for a long time.

So—.

There were frequent cases where a seven-year-old body could not control the emotions well.

Is that why?

‘It’s gotten hard to write a letter like now….’

If I had been in my previous life, I would have been able to write this letter quickly.

This time, I was confused even with very simple words and had to get help from the maid, Rodri.

Of course, I’m only seven years old now, so no one will think it’s strange, but—.

After thinking that far, I closed my eyes slowly and opened them.

And.

Tak tak.

I was too lazy to run in place, so I lightly stamped my feet twice.

Then.

Pong–!

“Chirp!”

After blinking my eyes a few times, familiar with the light’s smoke, I climbed on Arsene’s shoulder.

“You changed suddenly?”

“Chirp.”

Maybe it’s because I’ve been in my bird form a lot lately, but it was much more comfortable than releasing it.

‘I guess the period of growth is about to come, look.’

In my previous life, I had the same period of growth around the age of 10.

The period when the molt begins and the body grows in earnest.

At that time, I felt more comfortable in my bird form, so I think I kept trying to stay in that form.

‘It must have come earlier as the molting has accelerated.’

I didn’t think much of it, leaned over Arsene’s soft cheeks and picked my feather.

Arsene carefully stroked my feather with his index finger.

I liked the stroking hand, and the tail went up in an instant.

“Chirp–!”

“Do you like it?”

“Chirp!”

Ung, there.

Scratch my cheek.

I put my cheek against Arsene’s fingers and rubbed them.

There were a lot of feathers sticking out because it was the middle of a molting period.

So, my skin kept getting itchy, but there was a limit to scratching with my small beak.

But.

‘Aren’t Arsene’s hands so cool?’

My eyes twinkled as I looked up at Arsene like a windfall.

Arsene narrowed his brows, perhaps sensing my burdensome gaze.

“…What, why?”

“Chirp!”

Scratch more, more!

Fortunately, Arsene seemed to understand what I was saying and continued to scratch my cheek hard for the next 15 minutes.

Later, Ethan came in and said that the Yekhart family servants would bring the invitations directly.

However.

The Lord himself will bring the invitation to the Fernando family.”

“Father?”

“Yes, the Lord is scheduled to meet Sir Lamont.”

I blinked my eyes when I heard Ethan’s words.

‘He has been seeing Sir Lamont often lately.’

No, he was in frequent contact not only with Lamont but also with the heads of all clans.

Except for Raniero.

‘Maybe it’s because of that, right?’
