Chapter 412 Werewolf Bella

...talk to myself?

Annan pursed his lips.

Don't say...he's really interested.

Whether "Annan" was the purpose of the last week or not - as long as you can have a face-to-face private conversation, it is easy to confirm.

After all, there are some things that only "Annan" knows in this era.

For example, the content of his previous life, such as things on earth...

If you can gain the trust of yourself in this era, maybe you can get some important information from him.

But before that.

I have to solve the previous tasks first...

...to join the Hand of Winter?

Annan came back to his senses and watched the old-fashioned old man vigilantly.

Is he from the Hand of Winter?

It's kind of like.

People in the Hand of Winter have no feelings at all.

clatter. clatter. clatter.

The crisp sound of the stick hitting the ground has a strange rhythm, making Annan

"Don't worry, puppy. I'm not your enemy."

The old man stopped five meters away, lowered his head and made a calm, emotionless voice to Annan who was crouching on the ground, "You want strength, right.

"You want to be... extraordinary?"

"……Yes."

Annan almost whimpered in his mouth, he couldn't help avoiding the eyes of the old man and lowered his head.

——When "she" raised her head again, she had already adjusted her emotions and substituted herself into Bella's identity.

Those dark golden wolf pupils were full of hesitation, vigilance and hope.

This is exactly in line with her current personality.

Annan is now playing "Bella". A werewolf girl who yearns for power because of being bullied.

She travels to Frostwhisper in search of change, but hits nowhere. His wallet was stolen, and when he was penniless, he could only survive by stealing food. But because she was carrying food, other beggars were staring at her—although she took over a piece of territory by relying on the natural superior strength of a werewolf, and was able to barely sleep by relying on newspapers and rags for the time being, but it was definitely not considered as such. comfortable.

This is the possibility Annan analyzed from his own clues.

Her clothes were shabby, but the main laceration was obviously torn open during the fight; her earliest wounds were nearly healed, and others were only a day or so old, so she should have been hit twice in the recent past. shelf. She wasn't very hungry, at least she should have eaten last night... Plus the rags on her body when she woke up, so she should have won the fight.

Infer from this.

It should be because she is particularly good at fighting and is alone... Considering her IQ, there may be some foolishness to ask about the experience of becoming an extraordinary person, and she was targeted by the hands of winter.

The reason why he was not found at the very beginning should be that Bella's ancestor, the eighteenth generation, had been investigated in the past few days.

When it is determined that she can be absorbed, someone will come to contact.

So at this time, Annan must not respond eagerly immediately.

That would only make people question their own motives.

And with Bella's character, she should now...

"But... who are you?"

Annan questioned, "Hiding head and showing tail... I can't trust you!"

——It is very reasonable to show excessive vigilance and appropriate self-abandonment when you have just been attacked and hurt.

And the old man did not doubt Annan's actions.

There was still no expression on his face, his pupils were cold and his expression stiff like a puppet.

"I am the hand of Winter."

He said calmly, raising his right hand hidden in his sleeve.

On the thumb of his right hand, there is an ice ring that exudes a cold air.

When the old man raised his hand, the air in the alley immediately became cold. Annan couldn't help but start to shiver. The gray hair on his skin grew back again, and he barely felt a little warmer.

"How can I trust you..."

Annan's voice was a little louder at first,

But the more he talked, the less confident he became, his voice gradually became lower, and there was still some vague fear.

Of course, this is also installed.

But in the next moment, as the old man stretched out his hand and pointed to himself.

Annan suddenly felt his emotions calm down for a moment.

Like a sedative, his mind went blank... all emotions stripped away.

If he were a normal person, he might have lost his ability to resist at this time. But Annan has become accustomed to the reversal of Heart of Winter, but the unexpected feeling is okay.

But she certainly wasn't stupid enough to show it at this time.

At this moment, the old man asked her calmly, "For strength, how far can you do it?"

"I'm willing to pay anything."

Annan kept his expression calm and narrated in a low voice.

"Everything—that statement makes no sense."

The old man responded in the same calm and unwavering tone.

His pupils were deep and blue, and there seemed to be a chill that was visible to the naked eye.

clatter.

The old man paused for a moment with his cane and said calmly, "Are you willing to sacrifice your soul for the extraordinary road?"

"I would."

"Can you promise to keep all secrets?"

"I can."

"Can you give all your feelings and never fall in love with anyone in this life?"

"I can."

"Are you willing to slaughter innocents for orders?"

"I would."

"Where are the women and children?"

"..."

"A mortal mission, are you willing to do it?"

"..."

"High difficulty, what about the nine-death?"

"...I can try."

"If I ordered you to do it, would you go?"

"……I will."

So far, Annan has speculated about the possible answers based on the character of "Bella", so as not to answer too affirmatively and not be accepted.

After all, the Hand of Winter is a state secret agency, not a killer organization... If the three views are more upright, it must be better and more reassuring.

But then, the old man's question made Annan smell something bad.

"—Are you loyal to the Archduke?"

...what is this query?

Loyalty - what's the point? It is a trait that can be cultivated, and no one is born loyal.

unless……

In a very short thought, Annan replied

"I can be loyal if need be."

"—very good quality."

The old man nodded quietly.

He raised his cane slightly and pointed at Annan.

"Hold my cane and stand up. Homeless puppy."

In a voice without the slightest emotion, he replied calmly, "From now on, you are a human being."

"……Yes!"

Annan pulled his cane and stood up.

He felt that the cold and quiet touch in the depths of his heart was taken away, and suddenly a feeling of excitement several times stronger than usual poured out——

He was suddenly stunned.

The previous technique was probably not just for lie detection. There is also a considerable part of the reason, it is to form a good impression when they meet for the first time.

The old man withdrew his cane and asked calmly, "Your name is Bella, right?"

"Yes! My name is Bella...no last name."

"Then Bella—I'm your teacher. You don't need to know my name, just call me 'teacher', get it?"

"……is teacher!"

She immediately wagged her tail and leaned forward, her voice full of excitement, "When can I become a superhuman?"

"You have to pass the 'wolf kiss' test first. You will be the ones walking with the frost beast... If you can't tame the frost beast, you don't deserve to be the hand of winter."

The old man turned around calmly, and turned his head slightly back.

There seemed to be a faint blue light in his deep eyes, "I warn you one last time, the wolf kiss will kill you.

"If you leave this alley with me, there will be no turning back and giving up."

"I've... made up my mind."

Annan said seriously, "Do you need to teach me anything, teacher?"

"No. You'll survive the wolf's kiss before you talk about it."

The old man answered briefly and turned to leave.

And Annan did not hesitate to follow behind.

His heart moved slightly.

wolf kiss...

Do you mean the... "eating" of the Frost Beast?
