Werewolf Survival in Apocalypse - Werewolf Survival in Apocalypse chapter 146

Scarlet Blazing Feathers (3)

A vermillion feather grew out of nowhere.

‘Huh? What is this.’

With that bizarre figure that literally popped out of nowhere without even a hint.

Winter widened its eyes.

It was a fluffy feather.

The color was an orange vermilion, close to the scorching sunlight.

It was like a very large feathered ear.

It looked like two long feathers were stuck on top of its head.

‘What is this, really?’

Kyeo-gyeol touched the two long feathers that grew on the girl’s head.

Is it an ear? No, that’s not it

It looks as if something fluttering weakly is simply plugged in.

‘Should I touch it?’

Winter, feeling curious about it, tried to catch it gently,

“Oh? Ah!”

A girl who resists by shaking her head at once.

She took a step behind her, holding on tightly to the two feathers above her own head, as if to protect them.

It looked like he was trying to protect it.

‘Hmm. Okay. It’s saying don’t hold on. I know.’

So winter quietly retreated.

He wasn’t the kind of person who would urge others to do something they didn’t like.

If you don’t want to do it, don’t do it. That’s winter

Instead, he turned his head and put his paw on the fireside again.

It was to make a fire.

‘Let’s do what we normally do.’

Like that, I secretly drew out the mana, and sliced the light fire-attribute mana by the fireplace.

When the magic was activated with the firepower of the momentary catalyst, a small flame started again. It was fire magic.

Rest.

But the fire by the hearth seemed to inflate its size for a moment,

Soon, to my dismay, it was extinguished with a push-, wind blowing sound.

The magic…Failed?

[…?]

At the indescribable sight, he reflexively turned to the girl next to him.

It’s still bothering me to see him smiling like a good person.

Is it a mere illusion?

But it seems like that, as soon as Winter lit the fire, the mana he drew was sucked into the girl at once.

Like a magnet.

It was the same no matter how many times Winter rekindled the fire.

Soon, her fires were absorbed into her as they were, riding on the slender arms of the newly born Joktrik girl.

Like a sponge.

And whenever that happens, the color of vermilion becomes more prominent.

[…?]

He raised his eyebrows in puzzlement.

‘For some reason, the burning color of the feathers seems to have deepened.’

One last time. Let’s smoke just one more time.

However, such an attempt in winter was not worth it.

Pusik-.

The flame he drew was extinguished again as soon as it landed on the fireplace.

[…]

…Let’s stop, now.

I wonder how I can put out all the smokers, but rather than that, this young girl in front of me is consuming all the fire, so I can’t help even if I want to help in winter.

What happened to this guy even if he tried to keep you warm?

It’s just whether it’s cold or not.

Winter, who had turned around, collapsed on the spot.

Since I put my chin on my head and keep silent, I can feel that he is trembling and getting cold.

The girl hiding under the soft hair of winter soon.

Even then, it was cold, so I shivered all the time.

[…]

Winter’s eyes narrowed.

‘It would have been nice if he had stayed calm like that.’

But in the end, scolding a child is a foolish act.

Instead, letting him learn through experience is the wisest course of action.

But I couldn’t just sit back and watch the winter.

In the end, this girl was the one he brought with him. Of course, he also had to take responsibility for it.

No matter how long the hair in winter was and was as thick as the hem of the blanket, it was in the middle of winter after all.

Just covering it up doesn’t mean this girl, as fragile as any normal human kid, will have the wits to overcome all her cold.

It was only natural that she would freeze to death at this rate.

‘…Well, it can’t be helped.’

In the end, Winter yawned for a long time, but quietly waved her front paws into the air.

Then, bundles of magical power emanating from his body like threads began to wrap around the living room.

Like a spider web.

His magical powers surrounded him like a veil.

‘The Garden.’

A magic that surrounds you with warmth like a greenhouse garden.

If this little girl has the ability to absorb fire, she just needs to summon warmth.

The solution is simple.

“Baby? Sucker?”

The girl raised her head at the warmth of the surroundings that started to warm up in an instant.

Her whole body trembled while hugging Winter’s back, she looked around her in a puzzled way.

“Baaa-.”

Then, as if warm, she raised her hands and made a hurray pose.

At the same time, the trembling that filled the girl’s body slowly began to subside.

Crawling out of the bosom of winter, she soon lay back to back in the living room.

Even at a glance at her figure with her arms stretched out comfortably, her appearance as if she is shivering in the cold seems to have disappeared a long time ago.

[Haa-.]

Winter let out a long sigh at the sight of her, and soon closed her eyes.

He was no longer wary of girls.

Instantly, the energy of sleep rushes in and begins to cover his mind.

I thought of winter in my gradually dying spirit.

‘By the way, what was this feather supposed to be…’

In his hazy eyes, he sees the figure of a girl moving around by herself, still with her arms outstretched.

Those two feathers pricked up on her head.

I can feel the faint heat clearly forming there.

‘…Well, it’ll be fine.’

Within.

Unable to endure any further drowsiness, Winter completely closed his eyes.

* * * *

“Baby! Suck!”

Something sounds.

Someone shakes the winter vigorously with a mighty cry.

[…]

From noble mtl dot com

With that warm touch full of warmth, the spirit of winter that had fallen asleep returned.

When she quietly opens her eyes, she sees a girl shaking and touching his big head.

However, even though he seems to be shaking it with all his might with both hands, his head doesn’t budge.

Obviously, Winter’s body is quite heavy.

Because his body is so big that even grown men of fairly stout height look up to him.

Of course, the size of his head is even heavier.

[…]

With a yawn big enough to swallow a person’s head in one bite.

Holding his head up, Winter looked down at the girl who had awakened him.

Our eyes met.

Then I see the girl smiling, showing her white teeth.

Is something going on?

Winter turned his head to the side with a glance, and before he knew it, the sun was setting.

His two sisters, Yui and Yumi, Inari and Luna, are also seen sleeping tangled up on the mattress.

Everyone was buried in a nap and couldn’t come to their senses.

“Bar! Bar-.”

In the midst of this, the girl suddenly grabbed the big head of winter and played with it.

[…?]

It looked like he had something to say.

Looking at her with her puzzled face like that, her girl stroked her own stomach and let out her voice once more.

“Ba-…”

Somehow a weak voice.

However, Winter quickly grasped her intentions.

Because,

Growl.

Because she had such an empty voice leaking out of her stomach, as if she was hungry because she was starving herself.

‘…Oops.’

Only then did Winter realize his mistake.

He had become accustomed to the life and life of a werewolf before he knew it.

Human beings have to take care of every three meals a day, but he only belatedly recalled that fact.

It was a crucial mistake.

* * * *

Oops. A fatal mistake.

Winter movement has become urgent.

Basrak. Kik-.

He moved about, looking all over the living room and kitchen.

It was to find out if there was anything useful.

Of course, Winter himself was well aware that such actions were useless.

It was long after the world had already been devastated by many disasters and flooding of dungeons.

In such a situation, what could be in this place after a long time has already passed?

If you think about it even a little bit, it’s an obvious story.

But knowing that, winter couldn’t stand still.

Because the girl complained of her hunger, and there was no way to solve it.

Somehow, at the bustle of winter, his sister and the young werewolves who had been sleeping in the living room woke up one by one rubbing their eyes.

“How?”

Ignoring the sight of them waking up with a questionable voice, Winter hurriedly wandered around.

‘What should I do? What should I do?’

It wasn’t much to say that it existed in winter right now.

The only thing left was the large carcass of a snow crab that was caught from the last hunt lying outside, and the smoked grill secretly hidden in a corner of the house.

But to this little girl who is no different from an ordinary human,

Eating them was no different from asking them to choose their own death.
