Chapter 33

Even when I woke up this morning it was peaceful. The sound of stinging grasshoppers, the sound ants crawling on the dirt floor. The sound of the breeze blowing through the chimney. Wolfward, who had been quietly listening to all the sounds of the world, focused on Melissa, who was inhaling and exhaling in his arms for the last time. Her breathing, the trembling of her eyelids, and the tightness of her fluff, were squinting her eyes, and making noises that indicate discomfort from any part of your body. He looked at it. Then Wolfward recalled an idea he had blocked until yesterday. That is, it was about the troublesome seeds of each country.

Wolfward could fully predict what was going on in the intelligence departments of each country now. Melissa did not return. Even though it has surpassed the longest record of two weeks. It meant that he would have Melissa’s nationality too, and that the world’s top leaders would be eager to know what was going on in his house. – It’s crazy. I’m mad! Everyone is gathering and saying Melissa’s name. Why? – just as expected. Last night, the fairies who had been sent all over the world returned and shouted with trembling wings. I’m glad Melissa didn’t hear their voices. If she had, she would have woken up because of the noise.

‘I’ll have to go find it soon.’

It would be better to ask for a title before the number of awakened people increases. The only thing he worries about is that Melissa loves this forest and house. He’ll have to ask to take over the territory of about five villages around this place. Whoever she hates will lift her toes. It’s better to create a safe area. Wolfward, having concluded that, gently stroked Melissa’s cheek with the back of his hand.

“Ummm… are you awake already…?”

“I have a place to go.”

“Hey, hey…”

Melissa rubbed her eyes and yawned. That sounds cute. Wolfward smiled briefly and asked.

“Is there any place you would like to live?”

Ordinary people are at their weakest when they are sleepy. Some desire comes from deep inside the heart. And Wolfward wanted to make her desires come true.

“A place I wanted to live? Ugh, that’s… the beach…?”

He’ll have to ask for more than five villages. Wolfward had no intention of giving up this house now. Not only his hand and sincerity are buried, but it is also the place where he met Melissa for the first time. Destroying this house is dirt in his eyes.

It was impossible to get in. So what should he do? If he goes all the way to the west from here, he’ll find the sea, so he’ll have to tell her to put everything out there.

“Sleep well. It’ll be a little late.”

Melissa started to fall asleep again. Wolfward did not wake her up for nothing, but gently stroked her hair. His destination was the Imperial Castle of the Imperial Frontier.
