To the south of this land (1)
Kooung-.
Its gigantic torso collapsed powerlessly over the field.
The hunt ended with that.
Today also ended safely without anyone getting hurt.
“Ha, ha, ha.”
Yui was breathing heavily, and her body was shrinking.
It was slowly releasing the shape of a beast that had been inflated with great effort.
It looks as if the air is being blown out of a balloon.
Winter also subdued her front claws, which had been quietly raising themselves.
It was just a natural werewolf battle stance.
It is an instinctive meaning.
Whoa-.
However, unlike his sister, Yui, he didn’t have a relatively rough breath.
Just exhaling as if taking a long breath, even the context of the heart that had been a little quickened quickly subsided.
Maybe it’s because of the special nature of his birth.
If not, it might be because of the internalization of the heart that occurred at some point.
His inner world now rises to a level of rank distinctly different from the lower ranks in the pack he remembered.
A stronger body and stronger durability.
Nothing was comparable to any other werewolves.
‘Huh?’
[Feeling, kirureu-…]
Burrr.
I could see the tips of the claws of the snow crab quivering slightly in the winter snow.
He was still breathing.
‘What is it?’
He blinked at the sight.
‘Is he still alive?’
[…]
Snow crab breathing heavily.
His long, cracked eyes were looking up at him in the winter. Their eyes met each other.
After looking down at that gaze for a moment, Winter aimed his claws at him without a word.
A blue magic is absorbed in his forepaws.
Then I could feel his trembling subtly.
Could it be because he had a premonition of death?
‘Don’t think too badly of it.’
There is no need to leave the time of suffering for a long time.
From his point of view, he would want to live by any means, but he had already had his whole body smashed to the point where he couldn’t even move, so there was no further possibility.
The only thing that could be given was mercy.
Kwajik!
Winter took its last breath as it was.
* * * *
Winter has begun moving diligently today as well.
A crab as gigantic as the house itself.
The field of view was limited due to carrying a guy of that size on his back, but there was no major problem.
Until now, winter, Yui, and Yumi.
Because everyone has always acted like this as if it were natural. It was just a daily routine.
Just to add one thing.
‘From now on, I’ll have to take them with me like this.’
Originally, in order to adapt to anything, you must never take it off your eyes.
“Ah! Ah!”
It was the same with these young guys who hovered around Winter without leaving their side.
They didn’t break away from his surroundings all the time, and even at a glance it seemed clear that it was an expression of very special interest.
Inari drew attention to the claws of snow crabs dragging on the ground.
Tap those big claws, or squeak them together! He also gave strength as if he was trying to lift it.
“Huh-.”
But with the winter, Yui’s eyes narrowed as she carried her snow crab on her back.
She watched Inari carefully as if she was staring at her as if she was staring.
Tadadak.
Then, all of a sudden, Inari made the sound of running away and hid behind her second sister, Yumi.
All at once, the trick was to step back behind her. It’s as if I’m taking it out.
“Sup.”
However, everyone could clearly hear the sound of Inari’s drooling.
As expected, that guy must have had his eye on the big claws.
“Ugh…”
Even Luna, who is quietly following along from behind, can feel the gaze looking up at the snow crab with a coy gaze.
Just like that, everyone was looking at the carcass of this snow crab.
Yes, I understand.
It must be something you want to eat.
It was Winter who was well aware of how great werewolves’ voracious appetites were.
Moreover, it was a very strong and appetizing spice that they had tasted for the first time in their lives.
It’s not the raw meat with a soft texture that they always hunted in the forest and chased after.
A mixture of the concept of a very strong ‘salty taste’.
It is a meat with a strong flavor that reminds me of the taste of any crab meat.
It was clear that the simple yet subtle salty taste was a strong stimulus to the group.
‘I’ve lived my life without knowing anything about taste, so it’s worth showing great interest in it.’
The concept of taste, which they did not have, was born.
The taste of this crab meat was not so great that “Just salty” Was a simple expression.
That alone was quite natural for the group to show enough interest.
Moreover, isn’t it a very delicious meal that even humans like this crab meat without objection?
It was almost as if there was a reason why the flock of winter showed such strong interest.
[…]
But somehow, my taste became bitter.
From noble mtl dot com
I’ve been diligently taking care of her all along, but in the end, she’s in a position where she’s not even as good as the rice grains from the fields or the crab meat she ate.
‘Ah, that’s it. What are you thinking about?’
* * * *
However, the real problem arose only after arriving at the nest.
Quang!
Yui and Yumi, sisters in winter.
They engaged in a power struggle with the claws of snow crabs in between.
“Ahh-!”
“Hey!”
Yui and Yumi, holding each other’s hands, started fighting through force,
Damn it. Damn
Somehow, because of that, I can feel the ground shaking.
It was an unusual sign.
When I think of the usual close relationship between them, today’s sign was obviously quite unusual.
Considering that the muscular strength of these werewolves is so great that they leave clear crater marks on the ground, such a power struggle does not have a very good effect on the surrounding environment.
The ground below where the two of them were immediately seemed to be like that too.
Underneath them standing barefoot, you can see the ground sinking like soft clay.
Moreover, it was true even though it was a very hard-covered asphalt paved road in the city center.
Inari and Luna hid behind winter long ago due to their quarrel.
To the two little guys, the quarrel between the two sisters is a completely different world.
It was like a very threatening thing.
‘It’s difficult.’
However, Winter needed to mediate their power struggle.
It’s annoying to stop it, but the problem is that this place is right in front of the apartment complex they made their nest in.
‘If we fight here, of course it will affect the apartment.’
I can feel the ground shaking and vibrating.
It was only natural that the impact would not end with a simple quarrel between the two.
Moreover, it is the first ranking battle in my life.
If left as it is, there was a definite possibility that it would heat up.
Of course, Winter was well aware of why these two were fighting out of nowhere.
He also fully understands him.
‘I understand that one of the claws is extraordinarily large, so they’re both greedy.’
The guy we hunted this time had a particularly large claw on one side.
Maybe that’s why they’re eyeing each other. Moreover, all of them already know that the taste of claws is excellent among other parts of snow crab.
There was no reason to give up easily without someone’s intervention.
Sure.
For this reason, Winter, who had been watching the situation for a while, quietly stood up from his seat.
“Oh?”
Then both eyes turned to him at once.
Georeum handed over the large ‘claw’, the root cause of the quarrel between the two, to Yui, the eldest sister.
“How!”
“Ah!”
Then, one of them suddenly had a bright smile, and the other had an expression as if he had been in great shock.
My second sister, Yumi.
She looked at him in winter with an expression as if she had been betrayed in an unprecedented era.
[Arrr.]
But Winter just shook her head.
It was a resolute refusal.
‘No. This is Yui.’
In the first place, the ownership and legitimacy of these claws belonged to the eldest sister, Yui.
It was she who hunted him with all her strength.
She hunted so hard, but I can’t help but give her the part she wants the most.
It is natural.
At that sound, Yumi’s lips protruded.
“Hey!”
She kicked one of the pebbles beside her with great force. It was a resentment.
It’s clear that he’s sulking. It looked like it was torn.
The way he sat down weakly in his seat seemed to be somehow trying to get rid of his anger.
Of course I know winter.
It is impossible not to appease Yumi like that.
In the end, Winter himself had to take care of the group’s troubles and harmony, just as his mother Yuhwarin did in the past.
[Arr.]
Because it’s winter.
I handed over the last remaining smoked grill to Yumi.
“Huh…?”
Then the eyes of the second sister, Yumi, drooped.
At once, it opened up and showed interest.
