Chapter 20: Another World
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56The question uttered by Selena made her mind spin, then went blank. She felt so shocked that something seemed to have crashed down and shattered — her hope. She was dizzy from the additional information she had just received.
Until now, even she regards the werewolves’ existence as a mere dream, yet there was another one that sounded as inconceivable as werewolves? How could a human who had lived her entire life in modern technology accept such things? Fantasy beings, although they were told in legends, legends, after all, were anything but stories that might not even be true.
Seeing Asteria’s pale face. Elias gave Selena a look.
“Ah, I am sorry.” Selena’s voice was filled with guilt as Elias’ eyes jolted her back to reality. She stood up, walking to approach Asteria, and sat down beside her. Her hand rubbing on Asteria’s shoulder.
“I shouldn’t have accused you like that,&r

Asteria had adapted to this place. Though it was hard, she somehow had done it little by little. Seeing an enormous wolf in the street wasn’t an uncommon sight, although it was quite rare; sometimes there were two or three werewolves who showed themselves in wolf form in public.No matter how Asteria tried to control herself, she can still fall into a panic whenever they got too close to her. Usually, she would just go avoid them, finishing her business as fast as possible.After a month and a half of time passed, Asteria had been adjusting herself. She didn’t forget her ultimate intention of looking for a job.Selena had been too kind to her she even helped her to register as a citizen for the Razor Kingdom. Now, she had officially become one. With the request from a noble, naturally, the registration process could speed up.The Razor Kingdom was a place mixed with werewolves and humans. There were a lot of kingdoms lik
Wolf Under the Moonlight Chapter 22: A Grand Swordsman
The tall figure emitting a wild aura that practically screamed strength. Asteria was all too familiar with this person. At some point, even though she knew he was someone she couldn’t even dream to beat, she still hid a little grievance against him.“You...” Asteria didn’t know what to say. She could only awkwardly staring at his good figure. He was undoubtedly tall, even Elias’s figure seemed more like a teenager against an adult compared to his presence.“You are here?” His deep magnetic voice sounded again, instantly drawn Asteria.A weird feeling suddenly enveloped her entire being as she looked up, finding him already standing near her. His eyes looked bright under the illumination of the moonlight, making him seem serene.Asteria snapped out of it a moment later. She looked away, grumbling as she felt the heat seep into her face, making it look slightly red.“Are you sick?
Wolf Under the Moonlight Chapter 23: Training
Asteria wanted to ditch today’s training so badly.The reason was simple. It was because of Asher’s baffling, yet somehow magnetic presence. It drew her in, causing ripples in her usually calm feelings.The puzzled feeling left her afraid somehow. She knew that she was dead in whatever world once she existed out there; that planet called earth. It had driven her not to put too much attachments in this peculiarly unknown world.Despite that, no matter how stone heart she was, Asteria, after all, was also a human. She couldn’t sink herself in ignorance when others had treated her with goodwill.“Your training this afternoon will be overseen by His Grace himself, Grand Swordsman Asher himself.” Elias had thrown her a bomb this morning as soon as she woke up. Her agitation from the last night of meeting Asher had died down, yet it was now ignited last again.Asteria didn’t want to, but she also
Wolf Under the Moonlight Chapater 24: Near Accident
At the last moment, unexpectedly, Asteria came to her senses. She didn't hesitate to swing her sword with both hands, hoping to at least decrease the two wolves' momentum so that it would injure her less. She closed her eyes in the process so that they wouldn't be injured.She would be seriously wounded with her fragile body, however, as long as there was a chance of survival, she would try it.As she felt that the silvery sword in her hands had hit something, she couldn't help but be inwardly startled. Her hands unexpectedly grew slightly numb as the swords fell to the ground.Awaiting for the pain to come, Asteria instead didn't feel anything. Still, with her eyes closed, she nearly jumped when she heard of something being slammed hard. As nothing happened to her, curiosity took over. She opened her eyes to
Wolf Under the Moonlight Chapter 25: Two Wolves
Asteria took her training more seriously since that incident. She knew that if it hadn't been for Asher, she would've been dead if not injured.Gradually, the seemingly invisible wall separating her and the existences of werewolves in the city had lessened. She had learned that, perhaps, just like humans. Werewolves community also has criminals. She no longer that prejudice. Elias had put a lot of effort into helping her. Asher was also a great helper in learning swordsmanship.If she continued to look at the werewolves with prejudice, instead, she would feel rather ashamed. However, she also wasn't willing to be lenient to anyone, no matter what race, she wouldn't be polite if they acted so unbridle toward her.On a few occasions, she had met that kind of people. Some female werewolves didn't look at her tha
Wolf Under the Moonlight Chapter 26: Sparring with Werewolves
The training with Josh and Nox wasn't held that day since it was already quite late. In the next training, Asteria came after the two, who were wearing a confident look on their face. Asher wasn't there to oversee her training, but Asteria wasn't that worried now. She had also prepared everything in case something untoward happened.Nox, wearing a confident smile told Asteria. "When the training starts, there's need to hold back, Lady Asteria."Asteria blinked and nodded innocently. A thought crossed her mind. For the werewolves' standard, the two's bodies weren't considered bad. They have quite the muscle and taller than most humans. Even Nox was taller than Elias.After some time, Asteria was in relief as she quickly caught up that the two didn't have any malicious intention. Training in the agility area, s
Wolf Under the Moonlight Chapter 27: An Old Friend
Asteria's daily routine was the same as always. If she wasn't in the training to be a swordsman, she would spend her time flipping through the pages of books.It was a rather peaceful life. Asteria didn't find it boring. Even so, she still wanted to go out once a while. Without Selena, Asteria just couldn't sure that it would be safe running around when she was still a nobody. Her face wasn't that bad, so Selena told her that she was worried something might happen to her.Finding that Asher was back greatly delighted her. She could finally ask him how to gain entry to the royal's library. Yet, before she recovered from the delighted feeling, another good news came. Selena told her that Annie had come from the village to the capital this time."Really? Where is she?" Asteria hurriedly asked Selena. With a comp
Wolf Under the Moonlight Chapter 28: Unexpected
It gave a sense of bafflement that someone like Annie who didn't like werewolves that much would willingly interact with them and come to the capital. Therefore, Asteria wanted to know if she had the intention to stay.Annie's face became cheerful at that, she even looked embarrassed. Selena looked up at her, also waiting for her answer. As a noble, seeing that look on her face, she had her guess."Yes," Annie lowered her head after she glanced at Selena briefly. "I found my mate. He's a werewolf, the son of Viscount Raphael."Asteria was flabbergasted hearing that, but seeing that faint red hue on Annie's expression as though she was embarrassed made it more convincing. Staring blankly for a moment, she looked at Annie.Viscount Raphael was completel

"Did they bully you?" Asher asked, glancing briefly at the pair of brothers, Nox and Josh, who jolted as soon as Asher's gaze landed on them.Josh and Nox looked at Asteria hopefully, as if she was the savior of both of them. However, Asteria threw them a mischievous glance, causing the two's hearts to almost sink and melt into the ground."No," Asteria said.Asher smiled, said nothing. The pair of brothers who were about to sigh in relief upon hearing Asteria's answer could felt their hearts tightened again, discovering that there was something wrong with the atmosphere."I can ask them to perform some moves right?" Asteria asked Asher mysteriously. "I wonder how their ability compares to Elias right now."
Wolf Under the Moonlight Chapter 42: Rumors
Selena seemed to have known about Asher's confession to Asteria, perhaps Elias did too. There was some hint of teasing in her eyes whenever she spoke about him.Josh and Nox naturally weren't fools. They caught the meaning behind Selena's words, which also can be served as an indirect warning. The two were the ones who suffered the most here. After they received the news, they felt as if they'd been struck by a lightning. It made sense why Asher was so furious and punished them badly.The two brothers had explained everything to Asteria as to make her believe in them."No, it's not like that." Nox hurriedly explained, shaking his head. "Actually, it's not that we were deliberately holding back, but we are weak at the moment. Our power will slowly recover, along with the control over the wolf form."

Asher had confessed everything before Asteria. Naturally, this would affect how he act in front of her. Now, he no longer restrained himself and had even gotten more attentive to her.Asteria didn't reject him, or she could say that she couldn't. There was always some guilt in her heart, yet she was unable to extricate herself from this comfort."Alright then, take care of yourself," Asher said after Asteria told her plan to go to the count's mansion. His face showed a bit reluctant to part, which was rather cute.Asteria giggled and strolled away, climbing the stairs to prepare herself. It was true that she had been enjoying herself for the past few days. However, she also didn't forget to once a while thought about other problems when her mind was clear.
Wolf Under the Moonlight Chapter 40: Confession
It was dark, with the only moonlight shining down through the gaps in the windows. Asteria wasn't fond of the dark. She lit the lamp, instantly the sight of the room entered her eyes.She threw herself on the bed, careful not to squash her right arm in the process. The left hand reached for the pillow, hugging it to her body while sighing."Lady Asteria, the dinner has been prepared." A maid informed her, followed by the knocking on the door.Asteria, who had just laid down her body and closed her eyes, frowning. She groaned, feeling tired. Opening her eyes, she told the maid in loud voice. "Coming."Changing into the new clothes, a leathered knight outfit, Asteria came out of the room and descended the stairs. Asher had been waiting in the dining hal
Wolf Under the Moonlight Chapter 39: The Mind in Unrest
Asteria swung her sword forward, successfully slashing the targeted falling leaves, cutting them into two. She inhaled, stabbing and slashing while testing her agility.She had improved quite a lot since the incident where she nearly had gotten killed. After a few days of venting the bottled up frustration by practicing her swordsmanship in Asher's place, she finally regained her calm.Wiping the sweat, Asteria sat down and took large gulps of water. While she fanned herself, her mind wandered.Asteria wasn't sure whether Asher knew or not, but she had actually caught a glimpse of familiar figures among the prisoners besides the so-called princess Adrina.It was Nox and Josh. Their wolf form wasn't that eye-catching, however, she still remembered the

"Enough," Asher stated, not wanting to play along with any longer. "If you still have some dissatisfaction. Just report it to His Majesty."The two guards jolted, maintaining the respectful and fearful expression as Asher and the rest walked away. Their figures disappearing as the door to the next room slammed close.The guards exchanged glances. They were just guards, how could they have the privilege of reporting straight to His Majesty? However, the princess was another problem now. They didn't know what she had done to land herself in this predicament. Judging how Asher didn't even spare her another glance, they seemed not to be on good terms.Currently, that stunning face of Princess Adrina was filled with fury. Glaring at the two guards, making the two hurriedly walked away. When no one was there anymor
Wolf Under the Moonlight Chapter 37: The Silver Wolf
Asher brought Asteria out of the room, realizing that the girl had been trembling slightly. She didn't have her sword to defend herself. Even if her body condition had improved somehow, it was still nothing in front of a half-transformed werewolf. Strengthening the body needed a lot of time and patient effort.That blow from that man had blasted the metal bars apart. The room wasn't created like the ones for werewolves, which contained a lot of traps and restraining force toward their bloodline.Annie's body was smashed to a wall due to the shockwave. She was currently unconscious. Thanks to Selena's persuasion that the guard finally allowed them to bring a doctor in."There's no benefit in curing the prisoner who was about to die." Elias shook his head as he explained to Asteria. "If not for us bringing our
Wolf Under the Moonlight Chapter 36: Story of the Past
Asteria was startled by Selena's straightforward question. She wasn't asking about whether it was true that she had poisoned Bryan, Viscount Raphael's son. The question implied that Selena had already known Annie was the one committing the crime.A complicated mood surged in Asteria's heart. Looking at the previously sweet Annie reduced into such an indifferent state. A moment of silence enveloped the whole room."You already know." A low, raspy voice answered. When Annie looked up, her apathetic eyes gazed straight ahead. The outline of her body had gotten thinner from the last time Asteria met her. It was three weeks ago."You'll be dead," Selena said rather harshly, glaring at Annie. However, there was no malice in those words. Annie's punishment could only be one indeed; execution.
Wolf Under the Moonlight Chapter 35: Visiting Annie
"Do you want to visit her?" Asher suddenly said."Can I?" Asteria asked him with a hopeful look. She wanted to get to the bottom of this."Let's go then." Asher suddenly stopped. "Prepare yourself first."Asteria understood what he meant and hurriedly changed into one of the comfortable dress Selena had brought during her visit. As someone who was slightly tomboy, Asteria prefer the comfortable dress more than the fancy, heavily decorated one. Selena knew better about this.The long-sleeved dress went past her waist, but she combined it with long black trousers. The current style made her look like a modern girl."Let's go." Asteria urged.
