(POV : Aymar)

 

 

A sudden pain woke me up from my slumber,

 

The first thing I could see is the drooling face of Sia blocking my view,

 

I can smell her pungent bad breath right next to my nose which I backed away immediately, Isn't this supposed to be a pleasant morning when waking up with girls?' I complained,

 

I should consider this a training since I'll wake up with her in the future,

 

The next thing that caught my attention is a black human vector silhouette at the top left corner of my screen whose left hand is blue,

 

I have this silhouette icon thing ever since I asked the [simulator] to give me an HP indicator for which it answered something like "They aren't practical" so it gave me this icon,

 

My left hand is fine but I can't feel my right hand which is used by Sia as a pillow,

 

'Oh so blue means blood blocked huh?, so Left and right are switched in the indicator I guess?' I mused,

 

While I was pondering with HP mechanics Sia adjusted her position cuddling me tighter,

 

Her face got too close to the point pouring her saliva in my ears, surrounded her hands across my chest,

 

and threw her leg in an attempt to cover more of my torso only hitting my lil boi which was erect,

 

"Mph!" I swallowed the pain as if it never happened, and now trying to release my junk from stuck underneath Sia's leg, 'So this is what's been happening, No wonder it woke me up',

 

After I released it, Now it's stuck between her Calf and Thigh joint, which made Sia frown in her sleep as she moved her leg freeing my boi but again put her leg on it making my cheeks inflate,

 

She finally woke up with an annoyed face as she beelined towards the troublemaker and grabbed it, trying it to pull away,

 

"Hey it's not a carrot stop pulling it" I shouted at her poor handjob, "Put that thing away I want to cuddle some more time," she said sleepily,

 

I turned away before she does something to my thing,

 

Not able to think too much in the sleepy state She simply hugged me from behind with both limbs and continued sleeping,

 

I can hear her breathing from the back of my ears and her chest being squeezed on my back,

 

Due to my training, she only knows a few things like eating, cuddling, and last but most important thing Sleeping which she hates interrupted, Which is not bad since She's growing on both front and back at a faster rate than before, but it has its own cons,

 

"Sia, I have to Pee,... Sia?" I try to wake her up,

 

"Shudup!", "But I can't hold it",

 

"Just shut up Aymar" she was hugging me tightly like a koala while I was wriggling in her clutches,

 

"Nooo ho hoo!" I could only squirm.

(POV : Galeron aka Brother)

 

 

 

*Clip-Clop of hooves*

 

"Young Master, Lord usually won't come this far to hunt, beyond this is uncharted territory, we should leave now",

 

"Didn't he hunted down a few Direboars a few months ago just somewhere near?" I asked Conan,

 

"But he did it himself, we just carried it" he corrected,

 

"Whatever, I want to try my luck since I am the one who has to deal with this Barony in the future" I replied before moving further,

 

'If my Father wanted he could easily hunt this Boars, but he's saying "A Noble should conserve his strength and stuff", I need to increase my strength from hunting Direboars that's the main reason I'm here after all',

 

'I need to increase my strength to face The Fourth Prince, His grudge may be mostly towards the Queen Regent but he can do nothing to her meanwhile, we are easy prey to him,'

 

*Horse Neighs as it stops*

 

My train of thought got interrupted by the carnage before me,  

 

Bones, Half-eaten Direboars, and dozen fallen Trees,

 

looking at its two-meter high head, I can tell its bigger than average adult Direboar, probably the herd's Leader,

 

This is definitely not what my dad is capable of, quicky dismounting from the horse I inspected the surroundings,

 

Conan explored around the area without dismounting, "Master Here" he shouted from the distance,

 

After getting close to his spot I noticed few sets of Footprints which are long as a meter,

 

"Direwolves," he said with a frightened tone,

 

A few decades ago even before I was born, it caused quite the wreck to our barony, but they only come this far during winters not after it,

 

"Isn't the Winter is over?, What the hell are they doing here?" I shouted to Conan,

 

"I don't know young  master, we should leave now, The only safe place is within Castle walls",

 

Nodding to that I pulled the reigns, 'Great! Just Great Timing' I thought gritting my teeth,

(POV : Kolin)

 

 

 

I take a Deep Breath before starting the Magic Training, along with Master,

 

We are away from the camp since people would call me a witch if they see me do stuff like this,

 

When it comes to the magic he can't be compared to my prowess but still, he's cute when he tries harder,

 

'Is he trying to pretend like a mini man or something?' clearing the thoughts I started usual Icicle Strengthening,

 

But suddenly I feel an odd sense of insecurity, It took me a moment to sense the imminent danger,

 

"Master" I looked at Master with a horrified expression, "What?", 

 

before I could reply we started to hear distant drums like sounds, actually it's not a sound, its vibration of their footsteps,

 

Slowly getting louder and clearer, as we could see huge black Silhouettes coming from all four directions,

 

"Wolves!," I said which is useless action on my part,

 

Four Black Direwolves at least three meters high,

 

"Kolin... get ready," Master said while I was looking for a window to help him escape,

 

"What?! yes I'm R-ready" my reply did not reassure him but I fixed my stance ready to summon Lances instantly,

 

The smallest of the four, the one behind us immediately started charging at us,

 

I fixed my gaze on it while it was running slowly towards me,

 

At a certain point, it stopped and launched itself towards me like an arrow,

 

It was too fast and I knew that I couldn't launch the lance within time as it was just in the middle of forming,

 

"Watch out!" master's voice echoed as he pushed me away.

 

'I thought I was strong enough to protect master',

 

'I had a second chance, but I Failed Miserably',

 

I watched Master's concerned face before the world went black,

 

 

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

 

 

 

(POV : Unknown)

 

 

 

From the moment I was born, I knew that I was different than the others,

 

While most King Beasts Pursue Power as their goal,

 

I continued playing even after growing up,

 

Because nothing could give me the same satisfaction of the game,

 

The feeling of watching prey not knowing being monitored fills me with excitement,

 

Intensely observing the prey's actions without even flinching in the process,

 

I like to see different aspects of what the prey does which never fails to entertain me,

 

'Especially when they Breed',

 

Today is just like any other day but my prey is quite different than usual animals,

 

Although These creatures are not new to me, they are not as complicated as the creatures that I've seen before, these are more primitive than the ones I saw,

 

At first, it was hard to understand its social structure but after few months I completely understood everything, I even learned their language a little bit which seems useless for someone who doesn't speak,

 

My prey this time is easily distinguishable due to its dark blue fur bun which only grows on their heads for these creatures,

 

It is also smaller compared to others which it commands orders, seriously how come they just obey to some small rabbit?,

 

I laughed at the thought if it were those rabbit societies they would just beat it to fur for its arrogance,

 

I also noticed other two adult dark blue bun counterparts, a tall fat one and a short lean one, which are most probably my prey's parents, Fat one could be its mother while the short one could be its father, Most people respect the fat one, maybe it is their queen or something,

 

The first thing I saw the night I arrived was the blue buns getting touchy with another black tail and then a tall black bun came, 

 

And then the most interesting happened, the black bun changed into a pink tail, which I still don't have a clue how it did that,

 

Soon after that, the small black tail in blue bun's arms changed into a white tail, which tried to decapitate the blue one but for some reason stopped?,

 

I spend my next two weeks digesting the transformation that destroyed all the logic I've known so far, looking at these black and blue buns touching each other for uncomfortably long periods,

 

And one day another stupid thing happened, the blue bun produced something out of thin air,

 

'What?! I'm starting to lose my mind',

 

Instead of the usual way where I watch from high ground, I followed it back deep into its dwellings so that I could observe it closer,

 

which was the right decision since blue bun did that thing again,

 

I couldn't properly sleep after that, I watched him take home a bird the next day and somehow trained it to his uses it like those horses,

 

In my mind only one thought went on and on, 'What did that blue bun do?',

 

I trained my vision on it day and night looking at its actions, from what I've seen few things are clear, 

 

The blue bun itself is new to its powers and secludes itself from other while doing that, and it also has more mates but doesn't mate with them,

 

Another day the blue bun brought a yellow tail which formed snow out of it hand like it was pissing from hands, at this point I shouldn't be surprised more but I am as it made a big ice rock,

 

getting away from those weirdos I raised my paws trying to make snow of my own, other than my claws nothing else comes out of my paws,

 

'This is stupid, maybe I need hands like them' I thought before back to looking at them again,

 

I'm back at this endless loop where the blue bun makes snow out of the air and doesn't fucks the black tail, 'seriously just put it in',

 

And that stupid black tail also seems to accept not getting nailed, what is stopping you, just fuck him!,

 

The most frustrating thing is when something was supposed to happen but it certainly doesn't,

 

Finally one day they seem to fall asleep together instead of parting their ways, but they still didn't fuck that night, 

 

'I'm so angry right now, I want action!, gimme the action!',

 

At the morning the blue bun finally got it straight but the stupid black tail doesn't care about it and just hugs the blue bun,

 

Maybe they are too young to know that perhaps? that means I won't get the action that I'm looking for then,

 

Thankfully there was a dwelling full of women where men will come only to do 'that' So they satisfied my thirst temporarily,

 

-

 

'I have to change my prey now otherwise I'll lose my sanity' with that thought I observed the blue bun one last day,

 

*Sniff Sniff*

 

'Dogs? oh no, they're gonna die,... well whatever let's see that',

 

The dogs surround them and showed themselves without caring about their stealth which is reasonably unnecessary against some small prey like that, their aim would be more towards teaching their kid using the small bun as practice',

 

Just when the pup about to bite off the blue bun I bite off the pup's head,

 

'What am I doing? I'm not supposed to intervene while observing',

 

*Enraged howl* The mother screamed at me as I dropped the pups head,

 

The dog angrily leaped towards me,

 

I decapitated the last of those dogs and brought them to my temporary den along with the blue and yellow bun who were unconscious on our small fight being exposed to our head-on clash,

 

-

 

'What do I do now?, I need to somehow learn this power but I don't know how to talk to him',

 

I started to lick his face to wake him up which succeeds, I place my paws on him just in case he tries to escape or do something stupid,

 

After he woke up he didn't shout as I expected, instead looked around at the corpses and landed his sight on yellow tail,

 

"What do you want?" after turning towards me he asked calmly which caught me off-guard,

 

"What? Surprised?, I can tell you're not stupid with that intelligent eyes of yours, You've been stalking me for months now, If you decided to kill me, there's no place safe for me, but you not only saved me but also decided to bring me here," I froze,

 

'how did he know that I was observing him, I've been experienced in this passion of mine, my prey is not supposed to know that I'm watching it, it spoils the fun',

 

"Ahh..., Do you understand what I'm saying?" he asked skeptically for which I nodded subconsciously,

 

"phew, So... What are your demands?, just leave her out of this alright?" I blankly stared at him without a sound,

 

"I understand that it is too much for your brain to handle but can you like, try not to crush me to death?" he indicated my paws on his chest which I've been pressing while I was thinking,

 

After releasing the paws he dusted off his clothes and went ahead placed his hands above the yellow tail's nose,

 

confirming that she's breathing he looked at the corpses, "I hope you don't mind if I skin the fur of those Direwolves",

 

'MINE!, No one takes my prey!' I declared, I'm not stupid to give my prey away to some small blue rabbit, 

 

"Cool down Panther, wait are you lioness or cougar?, whatever you are I just want that fur skin not the meat, you know the balls that you vomit after eating, you spit fur balls right?" well I don't want to cough that stuff out but at the same time instincts tell me not to give it away,

 

*Ice cracking*

 

A familiar sound that I've heard every single day now echoed clearly in the cave, "Fuck!, Kolin stop that!" he jumped in the middle of the yellow tail and me, the sudden movement almost made me kill him,

 

"Master, what are you doing?" The yellow tail forming sharp long ice stone asked him with disbelief, "I said stop it, Kolin! It is stronger and even faster than Direwolves and would kill us without much effort, so you better let me talk to it",

 

'No one lives after thinking of killing me, nobody!' I shouted with anger,

 

"Cooldown your Greatness, are you telling me that her weak attack that can't even hurt werewolves can hurt some Great Beast King like you? her action is that of ant biting an elephant very insignificant, you shouldn't bother with such small fries which would lower your status" he said some long thing which I totally agree with, 'how come the great me would bother with an ant?',

 

"Just sit tight and let me do the talking, no matter what happens don't do anything stupid" he murmured this in her ears,

 

"let me show you how I skin the Beast so that you'll only eat the tasty juicy meat and not some dirty fur and prickly bones off of it",

 

'Yeah that's right only tasty meat with no bones or fur' I agreed albeit reluctantly since it hurts my head if I think too much,

 

"let's start with the small one first, Kolin give me your curved dagger" she gave it slowly with her eyes vigilantly focused on me,

 

'I changed my mind she needs to be punished first', "Kolin stop staring!" he whispered to her which she complied reluctantly,

 

'She needs to be punished, Now!', They looked at each other before replying "I'm sorry I don't understand", 

 

'let's see what should I make her to punish?, yeah YOU, SHE, MATE!' I demanded my favorite entertainment,

 

"You want me to... kill her?" he asked with a frown for which I moved my head side to side refusing,

 

'Mate! Fuck Her right in front of me!, put your small thing in her big insides' I could finally watch some proper action after months of expectation,

 

They both looked at me with puzzled expressions,

 

for another long time, I tried to explain what I meant but all of it failed cause they are too stupid, 'how can they not understand simple breeding?',

 

"I'm sorry we're too stupid to understand your great words, can we first prepare your meat Instead?",

 

'Fine whatever' just don't eat it' I said that, as I started watching them peeling the skin off my prey, making sure that they don't steal it, 

 

After removing bones, skin, and waste parts I started devouring my clean meat while they packed the bones and skin,

 

"Hey!" 'what?!', "The other meat will go bad if not consumed so..."

 

'Even if it rots I won't give that to you, I shall never allow stealing my food!',

 

"That's not what I meant, as a gift for saving us, Kolin would freeze it",

 

'You want to ice my food? making it uneatable?' my blood boiled on thought,

 

"don't worry if we freeze it, It won't rot like normally, and you can just call us when you do so we can purify the meat of wastes" I accepted after thinking for a while,

 

 "Oh Great White King I hope you wouldn't mind carrying this insignificant things back to our humble dwellings",

 

'Wait are you leaving?', "Don't worry we'll meet you in the forest daily since We have to repay the debt of being saved by great you",

 

After finishing up the meat, I carried them back to their homes along their the bone remains tied in a wood thing which stuck every now and then on our way,

 

When we arrived near their dwellings he promised to meet me tomorrow and waved at me before leaving,

 

'Somehow I feel like I've been tricked, whatever I need to digest the meat',

 

After going back to the cave did I remember something important, 'I forgot to ask the ice-making thing'.

(POV : Aymar)

 

 

We were doing regular training when it happened,

 

Kolin had a horrified expression before the actual danger arrived,

 

"Wolves!" she shouted only after they showed up,

 

'Thanks Kolin, I thought they were monkeys' mocked in mind but I didn't say it out loud,

 

These Direwolves had shiny black fur like those shampoo commercials where people actually wear wigs, they also had 'don't mofu-mofu me' vibe radiating around them,

 

Unlike movies, there's no intense battle music or waiting for the hero to realize the danger that they are in,

 

They quickly acted while we were still preparing as one of the smaller one from behind started to charge at us, 

 

If it was anime, enemies would actually wait for heroes to fuse or transform crap but the reality is not like that,

 

Before Kolin could form the lance attack the wolf pounced like an arrow towards Kolin "Watch out!" I shouted while pushing her away,

 

Never have I seen something move that fucking fast, which reminded how slow I was,

 

Logically speaking my body would have stopped me pushing her away as it always opts for my personal survival above anyone else's, but in a situation where the survival rate is nil, it doesn't trigger since my death is guaranteed whether or not she survives so the [Autopilot] didn't stop my suicidal move.

 

Just like that, everything ended quickly as it came,

 

-

 

Thick iron smell pierced my noses as moist spread across my face I was woken up by a big white cat with a bloody mouth like Joker which was licking my face and releasing its bad breath,

 

'Pathetic!, compared to Sia's bad breath this is nothing',

 

It was a big Simba?, Huge albino maneless Simba? which had gold-yellow big anime eyes,

 

The first thing I made sure was to ensure Kolin's wellbeing, who was laying some distance from me,

 

further away from me I can see some giant skeleton remains bigger than the beast in front of me,

 

'Are those Direbears? probably former inhabitants of this cave, So I guess this killed them all',

 

*Gulped Saliva*

 

Relieved from seeing her I focussed at the White Cat with golden yellow intelligent eyes, 

 

Its size is almost five meters which is one meter taller than Direwolves, It must be strong enough to easily kill Direwolves as I can see no injuries on its body while all the direwolves are decapitated,

 

I started talking to it out of desperation which it somehow understood, as it heard me reveal that I knew it stalking me, its pupils went wide for a long moment, it paused like it is still processing the information I told,

 

'If this doesn't want to kill me now, it needs something from me which I don't know what, perhaps my magic ability?, but I won't give anything to it as it could kill me the moment I become useless to it,

 

Looking at the Direwolf corpses I started plotting in my mind to distract its intentions,

 

If I say something, it just accepts most of it, I realized that this cat is stupid so I can exploit it as much as I can, as evil thoughts started forming in my head I heard the ice forming,

 

Thankfully my quick movements did not trigger its instincts as I was able to halt Kolin before she does something that'll make us both end up dead,

 

After commanding her to cease her stupidity I continued my diplomatic route, and I have to say it was easy to calm it if we bootlick it a little,

 

The beast was intelligent but can be easily manipulated by words, I could make it into my slave without even it realizes,

 

*Low growls*

 

Although there was a huge gap in communication as I was the only speaker while it's communication was hard and I had to guess most of the things from growls and roars,

 

After convincing it to my scheme I also made it carry the load back to home as it dragged the bones like a donkey,

 

It also said something about Kolin with an intense face but till now I couldn't understand what it wanted,

 

I never thought plotting against some dumb people would be this fun, Now I can understand why all those scheming nobles have sly smiles when they do some shenanigans, 

 

'Ah Yes, The Negotiator, maybe one day I'll fool it like majimbuu and capture the whole fucking kingdom' I daydreamed riding on the back of the big cat,

 

I promised not to tell its existence to anyone and meet it daily, which I'm planning to do it either way as I need much more things to exploit from it,

 

Now I need to find what lie I should say about the Direwolf skin that I'm carrying, I wonder how much it would be worth, more than that golden fur or less?,

 

The fur was wide enough to be a carpet and I also have a Wolf head that can be used for a huge trophy, as for the bones, I brought them to see if I can make better weapons out of it, which is dragged in a sled tied to both of us so we parallelly drag it together,

 

"Master?" Kolin suddenly spoke up which is natural "What is it Kolin?", 

 

"Are we really safe from the beast now?" I turned to her "No" replied with a stern face,

 

"No?" she asked, "That Beast was stalking me for a long time, If it decides to kill us, none of us can stop it, so all we can do is talk to it and visit it every now and then" I reasoned,

 

'wait why is she crying?', "I'm sorry master, I failed to save you and even became a burden to you at an important time",

 

"Don't sweat it, your actions were rational but the circumstance was different, anyone would have done the same thing if they were in your shoes, Besides even my dad can't do anything against a Beast of that Caliber", I comforted her,

 

She suddenly gripped my shoulders with watery eyes "No you don't understand, You should have used me to save yourself but you pushed me away to save me, why? why would you do that?",

 

"Because you're one of my future wifies or am I delusional and you have other 'plans'?" I looked at her for a response,

 

She paused for a moment before her face blooming in a smile, "No master, I-I always-", "Young Master!",

 

Suddenly her words were interrupted by someone else,

 

A horse rider who spotted us, shouted "Young Master is Here!",

 

Soon after two more horses came with one of them wearing a hood,

 

"Aymar! You're alright" the familiar voice with no doubt belongs to my mom, She jumped from of her horse and hugged me with teary eyes pushing Kolin away making her awkwardly sit on dirt,

 

"Let's go, It's not saf-" As she was saying she froze in middle, finally noticing the Direwolf head,

 

"Aymar, how?- What Happened?" She asked without taking her eyes off the wolf's head,

 

'Shit, what excuse should I say?' I panik,

 

Unlike that dumb White Panther, mom can see through my lies easily,

 

"It tried to kill me but luckily Kolin beheaded it while it was distracted," I said as I glared at Kolin to play along,

 

She was smart enough to understand unlike some certain airhead,

 

Mom didn't say anything, just carried me like I was some sheep and mounted on the horse ignoring Kolin completely,

 

Despite my protests, I was carried back to the castle forcefully and locked in my room along with Sia and maids,

 

The Castle is in a tense atmosphere as people were running around busily preparing for some kind of siege defense,

 

"Aymar" Sia hugged me soon after Mom let me go as she went ahead to oversee other matters,

 

"What's happening Sia? Why is everyone running around?" I asked watching through the window at the people including my own minions preparing wooden arrows and spikes, 

 

"Your Brother had spotted some Nightmare Direwolves nearby so the castle prepares to fight it",

 

"Nightmare wolves?" 'Never heard of it',

 

"They just called it like that" she replied awkwardly,

 

I inquired more reliable sources, turns out it was lesser Direwolves smaller than their relatives,

 

'so those black ones are nightmares and direwolves are bigger, hmmm... What the Fuck?',

 

So my brother found Direboar herd slaughtered by Nightmare Direwolves just outside of regular hunting grounds, These Nightmare Direwolves happened to be smaller cousins of actual direwolves, these Nightmares are known for their speed, which I understand as a person witnessed near death because of it,

 

In response to this, the Castle will be in full alert for at least a week until no further sightings or signs of Direwolves are found,

 

'But those Direwolves are dead and I can't tell this to their faces' I can only complain in mind,

 

At late evening Kolin reported to me of her return and retrieval of the nightmare wolf pup corpse,

 

Due to her return with the Direwolf corpse, Morale is restored in our campsite which was previously in panic mode due to its leader(me) hiding his ass in the castle,

 

I ordered Kolin to oversee the camp and send reports via Doggo,

 

More people were brought inside of the castle to increase the defense, sometimes I can see guards bringing in their families for safety, some of them got accepted and most of them rejected but brought in through other methods, So Catles is kinda getting too populated,

 

That made Sia and maids give up their usual places for those newcomers,

 

I made them sleep with me which made Sia weirdly happy for some reason,

 

That night the entire Castle was on alert state against a nonexistent threat while I was surrounded by warm bodies.
