Ah, I regret transforming just now. I shouldn't have done it. It's too late though.I cleared my throat and transformed back into my form earlier—my human form with white dragon wings.When I did that, the crowd came back to their senses and went into an uproar."You're an idiot!" a voice boomed in my head. It's Isabella!I pouted. "Stop staring at me like that!" I grumbled, and the trio cleared their throats bashfully."S-So... you're a White Dragon?" the black dragon uttered like an idiot.I rolled my eyes. "Wasn't it obvious?""Hm, it's my first time seeing a White Dragon..." the black dragon and the winged tiger uttered.I creased my forehead in confusion. Isn't Leonora Moon a white dragon as well? Oh, right? Perhaps they didn't see her before. That explains.Does that mean I'm the only White Dragon in this land except for the missing Leonora? That's strange. Oh, isn't the Great Divine Dragon Americus a white dragon as well? What's my connection with them? It wasn't a coincidence
Now, Isabella looks at me with a complicated expression."I didn't expect you to be a half-wolf. I don't even smell your wolf blood. Now that you said you were a half-wolf, I can smell your faint wolf blood. I wonder why..." she said while frowning.I hummed. "Actually, my inner wolf was in a deep sleep. Because of that, I couldn't even transform into my wolf form." Well, that's because I still don't remember my inner wolf's name. However, I have a feeling that I could wake her up soon."Was that even possible?" she frowned and pondered."You know I couldn't use my cold flame, right? That's because of my inner wolf. If I wake her up, I could use my cold flame at will." I said forlornly.Silence fell throughout the room. Suddenly, Isabella squeezed my hand that was resting on the table. "Ari, I hated werewolves, but you are an exception. I hope you remember that. Our friendship is more important than that.""Thank you, Isa." I felt relieved and beamed.She smiled and then turned solemn
A month later, we were finally halfway through our destination. We've crossed mountains, rivers, and lakes. Though the journey was long, we still enjoyed our adventures. There are many things to do in the forest.Furthermore, all the ordinary beasts we encountered surrendered to me. There were some unscrupulous beasts, and they fought back. In the end, they became the victims of my cold flame.The first time I used my cold flame, it terrified me and the others. Isabella told me that my cold flame was more terrifying than Leonora's.During our journey, Avallona taught me a few techniques to control my cold flame. She even learned new techniques from me when I finally had the hang of my cold flame. We had a lot of fun, and we all became closer.Eloise even acts like a baby toward me. Well, even though Eloise is older than me by two years, I always thought of her as my little sister. I enjoy having her around, and I kind of miss Rowan in her presence. They had the same vibe, playful and
"Ha-ha! Boss, these girls were all beautiful! After we used them all, we could still sell them at a high price!" the werewolves guffawed wickedly.Disgusting! "You disgusting ugly creatures!" the girls said with contempt and gagged as if they wanted to vomit.The burly man, or the leader of the gang, glared at us sharply. Then he smirked and said devilishly, "I can't wait to see you beg for mercy later."He looked at me and said, "You, beautiful lady, smell delicious. I can't wait to get a taste of you!" His minions cackled and licked their lips.Ugh, they smell awful.The burly man looked ugly, and the smirk on his face vexed me. His words disgust me so much I want to rip his tongue out. "In your dreams, ugly and smelly monkey!" I retorted in disdain and gagged, pretending to vomit.His face darkened, and he snarled, "Bitxh! Who are you calling an ugly and smelly monkey?!""You?" I rebuked with a snort. Isabella and the others burst into laughter. The vampire man and the woman in re
Rosheen's eyes widened. "V-Violetta? You followed me?!"The woman rolled her eyes and crossed her arms over her busty chest. My eyes lingered there, and when I looked at mine, I pursed my lips. I saw the other girls do the same.We are not flat-chested, but the woman has a big busty chest and the buttons on her blouse are about to pop."Damn those big boobs!" Rosheen pursed her lips with furrowed eyebrows and groaned. I looked at her chest and stifled a laugh.I just noticed that Rosheen was flat-chested. When she saw everyone stifle a laugh, she stomped her feet like a kid and puffed her cheeks.Even the serious woman stifled a laugh."V-Violetta! You dare make fun of me?!""Ehem. Did I?" the woman feigned ignorance and whistled."Pfft." Everyone stifled a laugh.Rosheen stomped her feet and walked away. "You can all die laughing! I'm going on my own!" she grumbled and walked faster.We stifled a laugh and followed her. The woman seems amused. She faced us and said with a faint smile
"Mate? Do you mean... other half, soulmate, or something? A mere werewolf like you is my mate? Ridiculous!" Eloise said, dumbfounded.I peeked slightly and saw Eloise's dumbfounded expression. Rowan's back was to me, so I didn't see his reaction.This is shocking. Rowan and Eloise? Hilarious."You...! Did you just call me a mere werewolf? What do you mean?! Do you know I was waiting for you this whole time?!" Rowan fumed and sounded hurt. Oh, no. Eloise, what have you done?Eloise was confused and was at a loss for words. It was the first time I saw her speechless. She doesn't know how to deal with this situation. I wanted to help her, but I'm in a tight situation as well.I don't want to face the brothers for now.Suddenly, I recalled Eloise saying something from a month ago when I told them about my mate. At that time, she asked why she didn't have a mate too. Now, now... Did she really jinx herself? Pft. I can't.This is hilarious.Eloise, you brought it upon yourself.My eyes swep
...Rosheen and Violetta brought us to meet the werewolf big boss of the Underground Auction House, Romero Douglas. He is a sly man and a snake hiding behind his gentlemanly facade. He was the type to betray others for his own survival.Surprisingly, Romero treated Rosheen differently, like he was wary of her. No, what made Romero wary was the forces behind Rosheen. Of course, the witches are not a force to be reckoned with. Witches know a lot of spells, both destructive and creative. Witches could even fight the divine beasts and could hold their ground. So befriending the witch is better than making them foes.On the other hand, Rosheen became a different person when we entered the auction house.The Rosheen I know was gentle and lively, but the Rosheen I'm seeing now is serious and had an icy countenance. Her aura deterred the big boss of the auction house. Even Violetta transforms into a different person.This is the dark side of the world where people have to be brave in order to
"My god! It's a thousand-year-old purple ginseng! I've only gotten my hands on a few hundred-year-old purple ginseng before!""It's real! I can't believe I saw a thousand-year-old purple ginseng! I'm glad I came tonight!""I'll bid for 10 million dollars!""11 million dollars!""20 million dollars!""50 million dollars!""50 million dollars for No. 4. Going once. Going twice—""60 million dollars!" someone yelled while raising the number of paddles."70 million dollars!" the No. 4 bid again while gritting his teeth. It seems he wanted the purple ginseng so much."70 million dollars going once.""70 million dollars going twice!""70 million dollars going thrice. Sold! Congratulations, No. 4!""Wow, I can't believe it's worth that much!" Ricky was stunned."Of course! It's a rare medicinal herb, after all." Eloise said proudly."Awesome! You made more money in just a few minutes!" Liana chimed."Hoo-hoo! I'm amazing, right? Tell me I'm amazing!" Eloise boasted again.We all averted our
