78 Ch. 78 'Giant Black Wolf'

She had expected that the cute little one was behind her, but who would have thought she would even found a giant black wolf standing not far behind her.

The wolf was very tall; even her head did not reach its neck, although the wolf was in an upright sitting position.

Its black fur was as black as ink, and its black eyeballs could make someone wash away. Xiao Yue could even see her appearance in the reflection of the wolf's black orbs.

How did this wolf appear here? Wasn't she with a cute puppy?

Memories as Xiao Yue mingle together with the one belongs to Niken. She tried to combine some recollection of her.

She remembered she didn't want to accept the fact she was an inamorata of one of Elementalist Knight. However, the Elementalist knight earlier told her Kazuto was the one who claimed her as his inamorata.

She also remembered that Karyn had told her that Kazuto was from the wolf clan and was a descendant of the wolf shapeshifter. So does that mean, Kazuto is a black knight? Does this mean that the wolf in front of her is the real form of Kazuto's fused energy?

Xiao Yue walked over to the black wolf, who was now looking at her calmly. It behaved differently from the puppy a second ago. When it was a puppy, it loved wagging its tail and bouncing around her legs. But this one's aura filled with undeniable supremacy with its dominance eyes.

It looked frightening yet majestic. Its eyes alone captivated her heart, making her wanted so sink into those black eyes.

When their gap close enough, the wolf lowered its head so the girl could touch its head more easily.

She raised a hand to stroke the wolf's head, which exceeded her height. She gasped to feel how soft the black creature's fur was.

A giant black eyeball was staring straight into her eyes as if asking for permission from her.

Is it possible that this creature asked permission to be with her?

Xiao Yue smiled gently then pressed her forehead to the head of the wolf. When both of their foreheads clung to each other, the wolf instantly transformed into a luminous black orb. A second later, the spheroid entered Xiao Yue's body to merge with her astral soul.

All this time, Xiao Yue was alone in the cold darkness. But now she felt her whole body covered in something warm as if someone embraced her tightly. She also felt no longer lonely as if someone were standing next to her.

Ah.. it was so warm. Now she wondered, what exactly was she afraid for? She should get out of this place a long time ago.

She was no longer afraid and ready to face a new life that awaits her.

***

A moment earlier.

Izzy's body, which was initially frozen beside the bed where Niken was lying, blown away and hit the wall hard. Izzy groaned in pain and coughing blood, making the crowd gasped in shock.

Shin Ha used his elemental technique to heal the internal injury of Izzy.

"What happened?" Yuki asked worriedly while cleaning the bloodstains that came out of Izzy's mouth with her sleeve.

"I don't understand," Izzy whispered. "Richard, why she doesn't recognize you? Didn't you say you are her twin? "

"What do you mean?" asked Richard, confused.

"She said she didn't have a twin brother. She also said his brother's name was not Richard. Are you sure she's your twin sister?"

"What happened? Is her amnesia getting worse?"

"Amnesia?"

"My sister and I suffered amnesia when we were five. We don't remember who we are, our family, or where we live. The only clue is this necklace." Richard pulled out the necklace he always wore.

There was a name engraved on the necklace. It said 'Richard' on it. "Niken also has it by her name."

"So from then on, you guys used the name on your necklace?" asked Shin Ha, almost in disbelief.

Richard nodded his head.

"Then what is your real name?" Scarlet asked in a suspicious and curious tone.

"I have no idea. All this time, we have assumed these are our names."

"Hey, something wrong with Niken." Kazuto panicked, making Richard and others stiffened to hear that.

A second later, a very dazzling light envelop Niken's body. No one could withstand the blinding light. Their eyes were all closed to protect their eyes.

The white arc of light sweeping everything in its way towards heaven also released a powerful lightning strike. The light continued to fly towards the sky as if it wanted to tear the sky into two pieces, brightened the dark sky.

Of all the people who saw the light, three mysterious, strong Elementalist watched it.

The first one was not far from the academy area, putting on a very cunning smile.

"Princess Xiao Yue, finally, you came out of your hiding place."

The second one, a young man in a modest house, put on a cloudy face to see the ray of light.

Then the last was a woman with long silver hair and a variety of butterflies that flew as if they were dancing.

The woman laughed with amusement seeing the butterflies look excited while flying around her.

"Looks like you can't wait to meet your new mistress. Unfortunately, we have to wait even longer. We can't appear before that person awaken."

After waiting for two full minutes, the light dims drastically before disappearing, making the sky darkened as before.

Seconds later, a pair of Niken's eyelids fluttered and opened, showing her beautiful black sharp eyes.
