Click-clack, click-clack,
The sound of horse hooves crossing the forest stirred a flock of birds from their early morning rest, fluttering up into the sky. Two men, wearing short uniforms adorned with the Red Lion’s emblem on their shoulders, emerged from the forest’s horizon.
Dismounting their horses, the men began crossing the river towards a cascading waterfall. Though not in armor, their agile and unhesitant steps on the stepping stones were remarkably adept.
Upon reaching behind the waterfall, they spotted a small cave. The entrance, where vine branches looked as if they had been cut by a sharp blade, led them into the darkness.
“This is definitely where it happened.”
“To think they managed to reach this cave despite being gravely injured…”
The slim young man with blond hair spoke, and the elderly man, with narrowed eyebrows, nodded in agreement. The dozens of spears tainted with black panther poison had enough to kill two male lions and then some.
Crackle, the young man pulled out a small torch from his sleeve, lighting it up and instantly illuminating the cave.
“Father, look at this. These are charred firewood remains!”
Following his son’s pointing finger, Earl Corald saw a cold pile of ashes and a heap of sticks and leaves beside it. His eyes sharpened.
“It seems the monster lit the fire.”
“No, he would have fled after recovering from his fatal injuries. Besides, it’s nonsensical to think a black panther would kindle a fire. If he had reverted to human form, he wouldn’t have foolishly stayed here overnight. He would have immediately fled the cave in his original form.”
Earl Corald shook his head and knelt before the neatly stacked wood, finishing his thoughts.
“Even if we assume the monster, in human form, lit the fire, this isn’t his doing. It’s the work of someone with less strength – an old man, a boy, or… a woman.”
“So, these sticks and leaves were also brought by another human, not the monster, to help the injured black panther…?”
As Timothy crouched down, sifting through the leaves scattered on the ground, Earl nodded.
“Who… Who would aid such a monster? Any citizen of the Empire, or even the continent, knows that a black panther must be captured or killed on sight, and reported if not. Besides, helping a ruthlessly brutal black panther? It’s unfathomable.”
“The world is always full of the inexplicable, like humans turning into monsters,” Earl Corald said, looking affectionately at his son Timothy, who still held onto his innocence.
His gaze then sharply scanned the surroundings, seeking evidence in a scene that defied comprehension.
Earl Corald, unrivaled in collecting and analyzing evidence from any site, found faint footprints amidst the leaves and dirt.
“It’s clear that the black panther entered here on all fours. But when leaving, it walked on two feet, accompanied by two adult men.”
Large bare footprints, almost erased, alongside the shoe prints of two men.
“Judging by the freshness of the footprints, the black panther entered first, then returned the next day as a man, accompanied by two other men.”
But then…
Earl Corald bent down, tracing a nearly vanished small footprint with his finger, murmuring softly,
“A woman entered the cave with the black panther. It was she who lit the fire and warmed the monster’s body with leaves.”
“So, you’re saying a woman helped the black panther? Could she be a monster herself, or perhaps a witch practicing black magic?”
Timothy, with large green eyes, looked at the small footprint where his father’s gaze lingered, prompting Earl to respond.
“We still don’t know who she is. But what’s important is that the black panther, who was on the brink of death, returned the next day as a human and walked out on two feet. Do you understand what that means?”
“Gosh, but what about the wounds the monster sustained? Even if it turned back into a human, it couldn’t have gotten up with those injuries on its abdomen.”
“I’m curious about that too. I want to find the woman and ask her myself.”
Earl Corald’s gaze lingered on the ground before shifting away from the cave entrance and deeper inside the cave. It was the same set of footprints.
“It looks like a day or two later, the same small footprints revisited the cave, passing the pile of firewood and leaves, and going further inside.”
Following the barely visible footprints, Earl Corald walked deeper into the cave, with Timothy hastily following.
Upon discovering a small hole in the center of a stone tower made of differently sized rocks,
“Ah,”
Earl Corald exclaimed, reaching in to retrieve a small piece of white paper.
Standing beside his father and looking at the unfolded note, Timothy’s eyes fluttered in confusion.
“What language is this?”
The characters were incomprehensible, resembling pictures and somewhat similar to the Empire’s script.
“It’s ancient Gritar language.”
Earl Corald briefly replied, gazing at the cute handwriting.
“The handwriting suggests a young woman. A young woman who knows ancient Gritar… astonishing.”
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
