When Ruby saw them transform in the Dyras Forest, the lycan figures looked more like monsters than wolves because they could still stand on two legs and have large fangs, but the lycan figures standing before Ruby did not look like monsters at all.
The fangs sticking out from the corners of their lips were also not as long as before, making them less terrifying.
Nevertheless, Leland, who was witnessing their transformation for the first time, immediately dropped his knees on the ground while his hands were shaking and his mouth was gaping wide as he was too shocked by the sight before him.
Holden, who had turned into a lycan, lowered his head so his muzzle could touch Leland's forehead. His dark brown fur brushed against Leland's skin, giving him goosebumps.
"Boy, I will not eat you." Holden said, "Go on, get on my back."
"I-I can't ...." Leland could not continue his words because he was still too shocked. His legs couldn't even stop shaking, so he was unable to stand up.
