Sharing Wolf Blood, Inheriting Farron

"Aww!"

The moment they saw the Old Wolf of Farron, the werewolves reverted to their original posture, lowering their heads and whimpering submissively.

The old wolf may be asleep, but its majesty remains.

"Don't be afraid," Da Er smiled and patted the wolves. "Go to the back. I might look a little scary in a moment."

"Woo"

The wolves nuzzled his calves and lay down beside him, refusing to leave no matter how he tried to shoo them away; their howls revealed a stubborn streak.

"You're all like donkeys!"

Da Er had no choice but to give up. He looked at the motionless Old Wolf of Farron in front of him and knelt down on one knee.

Now that things have come to this, all the necessary ideological work has been done, and all the psychological preparations have been made. It's impossible not to be afraid. Whether or not one can return after becoming a monster is still unknown.

But more than the fear of turning into a monster, he was afraid of losing the familiar things around him.

Whether it's a wolf pack or people with whom we will interact and connect now and in the future.

In order to protect his future friends and current strangers from the ravages of the demons, he must accept the power of Wolf's Blood.

"Thinking about it this way, it's actually pretty cool, like a legendary hero."

Da Er couldn't help but chuckle. If he were to publish a memoir someday, he would definitely include that cool line.

Perhaps a hundred years from now, when he has turned to dust, there will be young girls who admire him after reading his memoirs, and they will come to his tombstone with tears in their eyes to lay flowers.

He looked at the Old Wolf of Farron and the tombstone behind him, wondering who the old wolf was guarding.

[Will you swear an oath and become Farron Guard?]

Without the slightest hesitation, he made the vow.

Unlike the Sun Warrior, the second covenant to be discovered was the Farron Guard, whose sole purpose was to kill any intruders who disturbed the peace in the Farron Keep area.

The Oath of Sunlight will not bring any benefits to the Sun Warrior at the beginning. Perhaps like the simple-minded Solaire, the Sun Warrior will have to rely on their own hands to walk the path of light and heat.

The Old Wolf of Farron would give people Wolf's Blood. If they could withstand the test of the Wolf's Blood, their strength would be greatly enhanced, which in theory is no different from the Farron Undead Legion.

If the Wolf's Blood from all the Undead Legion could be gathered, perhaps the power of being Sunlight King could be awakened!

But if they fail, they will end up as mutated corpses burned on the roadside of Farron Keep.

Da Er's breathing quickened unconsciously, and he made a praying gesture toward the Old Wolf of Farron.

Dark blood seeped from the Old Wolf of Farron's skin, as if controlled by some force, slowly climbing up Da Er's body and seeping into it.

He didn't have much Wolf's Blood, but it was enough to transform his body.

Da Er's body trembled as he felt an ancient power surge within him. Suddenly, a giant wolf appeared before him, gripping a Greatsword tightly and unleashing fierce moves on the quiet clearing that could only be replicated by a wolf's body.

Is that what the Old Wolf of Farron looked like when it was young? No, it looks more like its ancestor or something.

As Da Er watched the giant wolf's movements, he couldn't help but feel that he himself could use the same move.

These are memories etched into the Wolf's Blood.

However, as he began to feel better, as if he had transformed into a giant wolf, an indescribable pain surged up!

"Ugh, ugh!"

Da Er hugged himself tightly as his body rapidly expanded. This wasn't the same transformation Te Er's, but a much stranger mutation!

Unruly mane sprouted from his body, muscles tore and reformed, and madness and chaos emerged in his eyes.

Does this mean he's about to give up?

Da Er's mind was in chaos because of the Wolf's Blood. At that moment, a phantom fire ignited before his eyes, a memory from his childhood.

He could have had a carefree childhood and a harmonious and loving family, but all of that was destroyed by a fire, a fire released by the demons.

The Chester Family, Da Er is descended from this family of animal trainers.

They moved away from the city and lived in the wild because of their need to tame animals, but they never expected to be attacked by demons.

Even now, when Da Er is fast asleep, those demons still haunt him as nightmares.

Blood and fire, burning and howling, the roar of beasts and the sneer of demons.

He was the last survivor, trembling as he hid in the closet, but he was still dragged out and brought before the leader of the demon race.

It was a short, pale-skinned demon with a large purple gem embedded in its head.

He pierced Da Er's left arm, leaving behind a viscous fluid in his flesh that made him wish he were dead; the wound still aches faintly to this day.

"Hmm, being eaten by the wolves you've known day and night would be quite dramatic,"

With that, he threw Da Er into the howling wolf pack and turned to leave.

"If you're lucky enough to survive, how about you try to get revenge on me, Doslai Bo? Whether I kill you or you kill me, it'll surely be quite a show, hehehehe."

The wolves didn't eat Da Er. They cleverly disguised themselves as mad beasts, which is how they survived the demons' clutches and protected their young master.

The sludge left on Da Er's left arm was licked out by the wolves, at the cost of several wolves losing their tongues forever. To this day, these old wolves, who have lived for a long time, are still on the farm, receiving Da Er's meticulous care.

And so, Da Er has lived with the wolves to this day.

Is this a revolving lantern? Am I about to transform into a monster?

Da Er's will still wanted to hold on, but his body was undergoing seemingly irreversible changes, and his meager will was completely unable to resist the Wolf's Blood.

"Well"

He seemed to hear the sigh of the Farron Undead Legion again. If he couldn't even get past the Wolf's Blood test, they probably wouldn't even leave him with a sigh.

I will persevere, I will keep going.

"Aww!"

Just then, a wolf howl rang out; it wasn't the giant wolf from his memory, but his pack of wolves.

They opened their mouths and bit Da Er's body, their sharp teeth immediately piercing his skin, causing blood to gush out!

What's the deal with the wolf pack? Did they think of Da Er as an enemy because his appearance had changed so strangely?

No, absolutely not. No matter how much his appearance changes, Da Er's connection with the wolf pack is a deeper bond.

That.

Da Er suddenly felt that his body was not in so much pain.

Not only that, the mutations that had occurred in my body were actually regressing. The twisted muscles were recovering, the mane was falling out, and the pain was still ongoing, but as long as I gritted my teeth, I could always get through it.

But then he heard the wolves howling in pain. Looking down, he saw blood at the corners of their mouths and their limbs twitching uncontrollably.

In that instant, Da Er White Wolf had done.

They shared his Wolf's Blood and together they bore this test!

Even if he passed the test using this method, Da Er wouldn't gain much improvement and wouldn't reach the level of the Farron Undead Legion.

It's better than becoming a monster!

As long as he's with the wolf pack, they can also be called the Farron Undead Legion!

Da Er gritted his teeth, fighting against madness with his will, as did the wolf pack.

Time passed until everything settled down.

"Bang."

Da Er collapsed to the ground, powerless, but in a human-like posture. The wolves had lost their strength even earlier, though their eyes remained clear.

This means they have all survived the test of Wolf's Blood!

They can now call themselves the Farron Guard!

A Wolf Blood Swordgrass slowly fell in front of him. For the Farron Guard, this was an item of equal importance to the Sun Emblem for the Sun Warrior.

Kill the invaders and protect the peace of the Undead Legion.

Offer up Wolf Blood Swordgrass in exchange for a gift from the old wolf.

A message popped into Da Er's mind, and he suddenly smiled.

Protect the peace of the Undead Legion? He can't do that now, because...

It is he himself who will next disrupt the Undead Legion.

Not long after.

The sounds of battle rang out at the gates of Farron Keep, as the fight between the Soul Eaters and the Ghrū continued as always.

Da Er and his pack of wolves roamed through the war, and he would fight back against any who dared to attack him, whether it was a Dementor or Ghrū.

Finally, leaving the noisy crowd behind, he arrived at the Fortress gates with his head held high.

This time, there was no endless battle behind the door. The last of the Farron Undead Legion slowly rose, dragging their weary bodies, and looked at Da Er, as if waiting for his challenge.

What about Da Er?

He held his longsword level and lowered his head slightly.

Salute to the Undead Legion, the Abyss Watchers of the Undead Legion.

The Farron Undead Legion seemed to sense something and paused slightly.

He also performed ancient rituals for the newlyweds.

"Bang! Bang!"

The sound of metal clashing against metal echoed once again within the Fortress.
