Chapter 22

Meanwhile, In the midst of silence in Mirania’s room where Mirania and Chera had left, the doorknob rattled.

 

Click, click!

 

Squeak~

 

The door began to open after a series of door rings went off the knob.

 

A black and moist nose appeared through the open gap of the door.

 

It was Grecan, whom the witches were looking for everywhere.

 

Grecan, who pretended to run away to the forest and returned to the castle, heard Mirania’s orders as he entered the castle.

 

However, since he was ordered to return to the castle, Grecan was already in the castle and was not affected by the order.

 

It was Mirania’s mistake in thinking that he had only run far away from the castle.

 

Grecan, not bound by orders, went up the stairs without hesitation and arrived at Mirania’s room.

 

At first, Grecan had a plan…

 

It wasn’t to run away and escape from the witches.

 

Not long ago, the validity of Mirania’s orders had expired. What was the order? it’s the order not to touch the Leberianz.

 

Grecan’s eyes sparkled, waiting only for this moment.

 

Waiting until the effective time expires and then moving along with his plan, Grecan carefully calculated and moved.

 

Grecan walked in and strolled around the desk where the coffin of Leberianz was located.

 

Then, with a snap, Grecan pushed the coffin with his front foot.

 

Thud!

 

The coffin fell and there was a noise. Grecan peeked out of the window.

 

“Come back to the castle, Grecan!”

 

The sound of Mirania’s command rang, and the sound of the coffin falling seemed to have been buried thanks to it. No one has noticed his actions yet.

 

Reassured, Grecan approached the coffin. He knocked on the half-open lid with his foot in the impact of the fall.

 

Then Leberianz in the coffin was revealed. Without hesitation, Grecan opened his mouth wide and bit Leberianz’s thin ankle.

 

Crack~

 

Along with the cold, the body odor of the bats sips in through his nose.

 

“Growl!”

 

Grecan growls disapprovingly.

 

“Strange smell…”

 

However, I couldn’t leave him like this because I don’t like the smell.

 

Grecan has been hunting since the time other baby wolves were being fed.

 

Grecan’s hunting style was to leave no trace. Chewing each and every bone.

 

It was a way to increase the survival rate, and it was effective even in secret moments like now.

 

Grecan stepped back biting Leberianz’s ankle. When Leberianz’s butt was caught and he couldn’t get out of the coffin, he bounced upward.

 

Thumpㅡ

 

After Leberianz’s butt came out of the coffin, it was easy.

 

Grecan turned his head and pulled Leberianz’s body out of the coffin.

 

Thud!

 

Leberianz’s head hit the floor, making a noise. Bright blonde hair scattered messily on the floor. It looked like they would let out a sigh of regret if those who loved art had seen it.

 

Of course, Grecan did not care at all, and crept back biting Leberianz.

 

Leberianz was a little smaller than Grecan.

 

He was smaller than Grecan, but his features are thicker and bigger than when Scarlet first brought him.

 

Grecan felt reluctant about this too. Leberianz doesn’t eat meat as he does, but he has grown up to this extent.

 

Raised from Mirania’s blood, Leberianz seemed to be able to open his eyes immediately.

 

‘From today, this unpleasant feeling will be over.’

 

Grecan decided to take care of Leberianz before he could grow any older.

 

He didn’t really like Leberianz. Not only his unpleasant smell but the cold air that floats like a cold spore.

 

Most of all, it bothered him that the great witch was putting all her attention on him.

 

‘You forced me to come and do this.’

 

It’s a complete mess.

 

His nose twitched nervously at the complaints piled up in his chest. In any case, Leberianz would not have attracted anyone’s attention after today.

 

I have already looked for a suitable place for you.

 

Slowly, sneaking…

 

Grecan carefully dragged him down the stairs. There was a constant sound of a light body being swept on the floor.

 

As he went down one step at a time, Leberianz’s head hit the floor repeatedly.

 

Bam! Bam!

 

Of course, Grecan didn’t care. When he saw a sign of someone coming up, he dragged him into the room, and since no one was there, he moved on.

 

The witches rushed there to help him with his covert crime, as Mirania spread the word that they were looking for him outside.

 

After leaving the castle, Grecan walked down a small forest path. Leberianz was dragged away.

 

Thump, thumpㅡ  

 

There was a constant sound of tug as he pulled Leberianz back.

 

The black suit worn by the bat people, clean and soft blondes, tangled with dust, gradually became dirty.

 

After a long walk, Grecan arrived at a lake deep in the forest included in the Witch Castle.

 

It was the place Grecan found while searching for Mirania’s ball, and he set marks on it in preparation for this occasion.

 

The water was very clear, but the bottom was so deep that it looked invisible and was perfect for plotting the crime.

 

Grecan dragged the Leberianz toward the lake.

 

Chirp, chirp~

 

Birds sitting around the tree and resting flew up in surprise when they smelled a predator.

 

 

⚝

 

 

 

Mirania glanced a faint look at the broom.

 

After ten orders, Grecan still did not show up.

 

‘”He wouldn’t have been able to get out of the witch’s realm.’

 

Where the hell did he go?

 

It was at that moment…

 

“Mirania, there’s a trail here!” Said by the little witch in the middle of the forest.

 

Mirania immediately turned to the place where the little witch was and flew away.

 

By the time Mirania arrived, one of Leberianz’s arms had already been soaked in the water.

 

Mirania, who flew over in a broomstick and found Grecan, froze with surprise.

 

It was almost her instinct to open her mouth agape.

 

“Grecan put down Leberianz!”

 

It was so urgent that the order of words changed. The night of obedience turned white.

 

“On the ground…”

 

It was before I finished speaking.

 

Splash!

 

Grecan quickly put down Leberianz. The problem was that Leberianz’s body was halfway across the lake.

 

When Grecan let go, Leberianz’s body was sucked into the lake like a water ghost had pulled it.

 

Slap!

 

The surface of the lake fluctuated and the water rose.

 

Mirania’s mouth opened wide watching the scene.

 

</object>

As soon as Mirania opened her mouth and spoke, Grecan, who quickly threw Leberianz into the lake, licked his arm, pretending he had done nothing wrong. It was a hateful, calm gesture.

 

Chera, who arrived late and witnessed the scene, breathed in.

 

“He’s a real nutcase.”

 

Mirania’s mind went blank.

 

As in the case with Grecan, Leberianz never forgets the harm someone has done to him as a shady bat.

 

In Mirania’s head, the troublesome situation after Leberianz woke up and the appearance of the bat people fighting for treating their successor badly were tangled.

 

“It’s the worst.”

 

Mirania heard the sound of her plans in her head, a plan that had been somewhat difficult but had been smooth, just simply raising Grecan and Leberianz, breaking into pieces.

 

“Crazy dog!”

 

I immediately ran away screaming and looked into the lake, but I couldn’t see Leberianz, who had already sunk to the bottom.

 

Chera’s eyes widened at Mirania’s curse at Grecan.

 

“I’ve never seen Mirania swear before.”

 

The little witch, who found the trace, whispered, and Chera nodded in agreement.

 

He had already thrown Leberianz into the lake, and Grecan, who was free from orders, turned pale.

 

Even though he looked like a wolf, his dissatisfaction was vividly expressed.

 

“I’m not a dog!”

 

Not feeling the need to answer the question, Mirania threw off her cloak.

 

Leberianz would drown if I don’t find him soon.

 

Leberianz wouldn’t die easily. He wouldn’t die as much even if he fell into the lake, but it wasn’t without a problem.

 

‘If he held a grudge against me for this, it’d be a headache.’

 

I wouldn’t have a choice but to restore him to his original state before he wakes up.

 

It was a moment when Mirania was about to dive into the lake.

 

Splash!

 

Something popped up from the deep.
