“It’s beautiful…” (Reese?)
“Yeah, It’s as though this is a dream…” (Emilia?)
Emilia and Reese sat down on both of my sides, admiring the blue world.
And Reus leaned against my back while making the sound of sleeping person. It’s more than what one deserves to see, and as the mana flowed over, we understood it because of the calmness of this area.
“Oh you, Reus. You just don’t understand its charm. Besides, for you to lean against Sirius-sama’s back… you sneaky.” (Emilia)
“Well said. It’s alright for both of you to lean on me, you know?” (Sirius)
“Is that alright?” (Emilia)
“Since you have been trying to sneak into my bed many times, this is nothing. Come, I don’t mind about Reese too.” (Sirius)
“Y-yes. Please excuse me.” (Reese)
Those two leaned against both of my shoulders, they were blushing and looked happy. Furthermore, Emilia hugged my arm tightly but I guess that’s also another way of displaying her affection.
“Aah.. to enjoy such scenery together with Sirius-sama… it’s the best.” (Emilia)
“Yeah… I think I understand your feelings.” (Reese)
“Well, once in awhile.” (Sirius)
While we stayed like this for a while, I surveyed the surroundings as a precautionary measure… I perceived a white thing at the edge of my view.
I thought that said white monster was on guard but I couldn’t feel any thirst for blood, so I naturally lowered my guard. It’s impossible for me to lower my guard in front of my enemies or my friends or something that I’m not sure if they are enemy or not but it changed the magical scenery to certain extent.
“…Sirius-sama, what are you going to do about it?” (Emilia)
Emilia, who cleverly felt the changes on me, turned her face to me and asked that question. Reus was late opening his eyes and began to stand up while Reese looked puzzled and tilted her head.
“Hmmm… what is it, Aniki? Aren’t you going to be on guard now even if it’s just a bit?” (Reus)
“No, I have found this strange creature before. You should look over there.” (Sirius)
The disciples look to where I pointed at and they opened their eyes widely without saying anything.
That was… a wolf that was glittering because of its pure white hair.
The size of the wolf is probably about two meters, it was lying down on the rock at the center of the spring, and it completely became a part of the scenery. Our eyes were stolen by that sight, and even though a thirst for blood couldn’t be felt, there is limit of not noticing such an existence. No, that wolf presence is skillfully cut off, as it is naturally blending in with the environment.
There is somewhat of a distance between us but as we noticed it, the wild beast must have also noticed us. Despite this, it didn’t look cautious because the wolf closed its eyes and continued sleeping.
“It looks inspiring and very beautiful. Perhaps, that is the white monster according to the information?” (Emilia)
“I guess so. The other side doesn’t seem to be cautious at all, so don’t start a fight carelessly.” (Sirius)
The wolf didn’t respond with anything even when we already came this close. I guess it is a strong wolf and didn’t think anything of us.
Generally, Reus would say something in the beginning while throwing himself and it was very rare of him too not pull out his sword. He became hardened when looking at the wolf while being surprised. Emilia who embraced my arm was the same, and then she regained herself after I poke her head with other arm openly.
“Haa!?… I-I’m sorry. Indeed, I became unintentionally absentminded when seeing it.” (Emilia)
“So that mean, do you know something about it?” (Sirius)
“Yes. It’s called the Hundred Wolves among us including the silver wolf tribe, and it is said to be the ancestor of the existing and various silver wolf tribes. It was revered as the messenger of god by the silver wolf tribe.” (Emilia)
“Tou-chan said this long time ago, Aniki. If I’m going to meet Hundred Wolves, never defy and worship it with gratefulness. I understand that when I see it with my own eyes, to never go against it.” (Reus)
As a human, we probably don’t understand something that we feel. The siblings became quiet as if they meet an absolute king and it appeared that they won’t take their eyes off the Hundred Wolves.
The Hundred Wolves just ignored us as usual but the more we looked at it, the more we thought that it had a beautiful appearance. Its white and shiny hair reflected the moonlight, as if the Hundred Wolves was glittering. In my previous life, I felt it’s rare to discover mysteries no matter how hard I struggle. I think I understand why it is called the messenger of God.
“So, do you somehow understand the Hundred Wolves’ behavior? It still being unconcerned as ever.” (Sirius)
“D-don’t know. From the story passed down to the silver wolf tribes, it is an existence that can only be seen once in several hundred years.” (Emilia?)
Is the territory of the big wolf, even though it’s not weird for it to go across the whole mountain area, the Hundred
