“So, the Marquis claims that Viscount Oswald is the culprit?”
When only the two remained, Isabelle asked straightforwardly.
“It’s highly possible. We need to investigate the incident in the Orbis Kingdom further to be sure.”
“Then, the deeds of the Silver Wolf, is it not?”
“There is more evidence pointing to Viscount Oswald as the culprit.”
Isabelle smiled meaningfully.
“Well, because the Silver Wolf looks like Viscount Vaise, do you want to erase him from the scene on purpose?”
Adel felt embarrassed. The more she denied, the stronger she denied.
“What does it matter if the Silver Wolf looks like the viscount? I presented the evidence, and that evidence points to Viscount Oswald.”
“But during the time when my husband died, Viscount Oswald was in the Orbis Kingdom. At least he didn’t kill my husband.”
“Do you still think the Silver Wolf is the culprit?”
“It’s a creature with the power to tear a person apart in an instant. Wasn’t Adel’s mother also a victim?”
“……!”
Seeing Adel’s stiff face, Isabelle clicked her tongue.
“I’m sorry. I brought back unpleasant memories.”
“It’s okay. If we can catch the real culprit…….”
“I have one question. When Adel’s mother passed away, the hunting ground where my husband died, and now the incident happening in Greenhill. Who was closer to the crime scenes, Viscount Oswald or Viscount Vaise?”
For a moment, an unknown dagger seemed to pierce Adel’s heart.
“Are you suspecting the viscount now? It’s impossible!”
As she said this, Adel’s voice trembled.
She herself didn’t know if she was unconsciously suspecting him.
What was especially strange was that when Adel’s mother passed away, Kristin did not show her face for several days.
The person who should have come first to comfort her.
But in her heart, she strongly denied that.
“I’m also speaking with evidence. The methods that harmed them were the same, so if we consider it as the work of the same person, the viscount is more likely than the marquis.”
“But you mentioned a beast with great power a while ago. Why do you suspect the viscount then?”
To the confused Adel, Isabelle calmly said,
“Have you heard of the Wolf Clan?”
“Wolf Clan… I have heard of it.”
She had heard that such a race existed a very long time ago. Adel had also thought that the Silver Wolf might be related to the Wolf Clan.
However, information related to them was not readily available. The Church had prohibited stories about the Wolf Clan.
Isabelle said,
“They were a powerful race that could command wolves. They could take on the form of a human and transform into a wolf. When transformed into a wolf, they were said to have five claws like a human. Due to their immense strength and ferocious and brutal nature, they eventually fought among themselves and were annihilated.”
“Isn’t that just a mythical story?”
“A myth? How else would you explain the events happening now if it’s not the work of the Wolf Clan?”
Adel chuckled.
“Are you saying Viscount Vaise could be a member of the Wolf Clan?”
“…….”.
Isabelle responded with silence.
“You misunderstood. We’ve grown up together since he was a child. He is the closest person to me now. So, there’s no way I wouldn’t know. Absolutely not!”
While strongly denying, Adel’s mind was in confusion.
‘Could it be that the silver wolf I saw in the bedroom was not a dream but… Kristin…?’
No. Absolutely not!
As if she read Adel’s thoughts, Isabelle smiled faintly and turned away.
“I understand. But please think about what I said.”
How much time had passed?
Adel, sitting absentmindedly on a bench, looked up at the long shadow cast beneath her feet.
He was standing in front of her.
Kristin, with her silver hair fluttering in the sunlight, and a dazzlingly beautiful smile.
It sometimes felt so mysterious that she seemed not like a person.
Could he really be the Silver Wolf?
Is that why he disliked talking about the Silver Wolf?
“What are you doing here?”
“Kris…”
Kristin playfully wrinkled her nose.
“They said there was a bazaar, so I barely made time to come, and you’re lazing around here?”
“Yeah.”
Adel weakly forced a smile.
“Where does it hurt?”
Staring at her intently, he reached out and touched her forehead.
At that moment!
Adel flinched unknowingly, pulling her body backward.
Kristin’s expression stiffened.
“Why, what happened?”
“Nothing…”
“Your face is pale.”
“Seyra visited a while ago. I guess I got too into our argument and forgot to eat.”
“No wonder. Your body is cold.”
Without hesitation, he took off the jacket he was wearing and wrapped Adel in it.
“Get up quickly. Let’s go to the doctor.”
Adel quickly calmed him down with a fake smile.
“It’s not that serious. I just overdid it with the bazaar preparations. No need to worry.”
“Well, you said you practiced shooting every day. Handling the bazaar preparations on top of that must have been exhausting.”
Adel looked up at Kristin with a blank expression.
He was looking at her more cool-headed and sharp than anyone else.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
