Yu Weimin and the little werewolf pup stared at each other. The latter's body was stained with the blood of several pups who now lay dead. Despite this, the cuteness of that little thing didn't vanish. Instead, his huge, round eyes looked even more adorable when they glared at him with utmost brutality.
Little legs struggled to keep their balance after killing so many of their peers. Yu Weimin could see them trembling in that place.
At this moment, Yu Weimin almost wanted to go AWWWWW in front of the little wolf.
How in the world could something be so cute?!
If it weren't for the task, and if he wasn't aware of the fact that the wolf was the main villain of this world, he would have picked it up and rubbed it against his face. He might even have kissed the little pup for looking at him in such an attractive way.
Yu Weimin took a deep breath and controlled himself. He shouldn't act like a criminal and think about a child like that. Wait a second, he indeed was a criminal, but he wouldn't stoop so low as to have such thoughts about Cole in a child's body.
So when he managed his expression, he walked closer.
After seeing Yu Weimin walk towards him, the little wolf seemed to have gotten scared. The trembling of its legs worsened. It almost looked like a frightened little kitten who was about to faint.
Yu Weimin pursed his lips. Little kittens or puppies were his only weaknesses. He couldn't handle their cuteness, and at this moment, he was close to losing himself and rubbing the little thing all over himself.
'No! It's the Crown Prince! What am I thinking?!' Yu Weimin chastised himself and walked over.
When he reached the wolf, he bent down and picked up the pup before it could run away. Then he sighed dramatically.
"I can at least save one." Yu Weimin said as he felt Wolf's body freeze in his arms.
Yu Weimin had no interest in knowing what the pup was thinking about.
The little pup started struggling again a moment later, but Yu Weimin held it close to himself for fear of dropping it. This time, the struggle was even more fierce.
Yu Weimin lowered his head and glared at the wolf pup. "I know you can understand me. If you continue to struggle, I'll throw you in front of soldiers to be crushed under their feet. Go on. Continue struggling."
Cole seemed to have understood that this teenager was still ruthless. So he stopped moving and lay motionless in the arms of the other.
Yu Weimin released a breath of relief as he walked down the corridor. He didn't want to pretend to be a good guy in front of this villain. But he couldn't go as insane as he usually would. He didn't want to act out of character.
Normally, he would be too lazy to be bothered by little kittens, no matter how much he liked them. He would have fetched his subordinates to handle such a wolf. If there was no one around, he would just give the wolf to someone else.
After walking for a while, they finally came out of the prison. By this time, others had figured out that Yu Weimin had escaped. As the soldiers tightened security, sirens rang out in the background.
Too bad. Yu Weimin was already out.
His shoulders relaxed, and he turned to look at the pup in his arms, who pretended to be obedient. His brows furrowed.
"System, what's his hatred value?"
[100, host.]
Yu Weimin raised his brows. This wasn't out of the ordinary. He knew this would happen. So he nodded nonchalantly and continued to carry the wolf around.
First things first, he should find a place to rest until he can figure out what to do next. The aftereffects of the pills he just consumed were terrifying. He could already feel his arms and legs getting numb from exhaustion. It was almost as if his entire body's energy had been sucked away. He quickly needed to find a place to hide.
As he thought about it, his feet continued walking toward the forest area. The soldiers securing the spot quickly locked all the gates and searched the entire area outside the city gates. It was a good thing that Yu Weimin could escape the city easily.
After entering deep into the forest, Yu Weimin wiped the sweat off his face as he looked around. He swiftly glanced at a big tree nearby and climbed it quickly. Since he was a powerful being outside of this system, even though he was a criminal, he had taken training in his younger days. So even with a weak bodily constitution, he could climb a tree without effort.
It was just that he didn't want to carry a little pup in his arms and climb a tree simultaneously. He glanced at the wolf with a hesitant expression on his face.
Should he leave this thing on the ground?
It seemed as if System knew what her host was thinking and said, [Host, don't! You have finally changed the first arc by saving the main villain. You should still be careful. The storyline of a world is strong and could force it back on its track until the very end.]
"So you mean I will have to continue to alter the arcs every minute I breathe?"
The system trembled upon hearing the coldness leaking through her host's voice. [H-H-Host, why are you angry all of a sudden? I'm helping you with all I can, and you're…. Tell you what, I'll give you another healing pill as compensation, okay?]
Yu Weimin narrowed his eyes and said nothing. He ate the healing pill and climbed onto the tree. After stopping at the thickest branch, he rested against the trunk and closed his eyes. The pup was still in his arms. Since the little wolf wasn't so powerful, he might as well let it be.
In any case, the little thing was still trembling all over. How could it cause trouble for him?
Even if the villain did make trouble, Yu Weimin wanted to see just what this person would do.
He closed his eyes, but his senses were still strong. As soon as he pretended to be asleep, the wolf suddenly stopped trembling.
Cole stood up and pushed his paw against the other's chest, narrowing his eyes. Oliver still didn't wake up.
Finally, the teenager was asleep. Cole sneered and jumped off the tree in one swift move. It didn't seem like he was the pup who couldn't move at all. Does it mean he was pretending all along?
Yu Weimin frowned, but he said nothing. He continued to use his senses to perceive his surroundings. Even though the body he was in didn't have any spiritual energy, he still knew how to sense the surroundings with his aura. He opened his eyes as he felt the wolf walk away.
He followed the trail and looked at the little wolf pup walking through the forest. After wandering for a while, the wolf pup glanced around before getting closer to a tree.
Soon enough, traces of fog appeared around the pup's body. By the time the fog disappeared, the little wolf's body had changed into that of a three-year-old boy. The boy was butt naked as he stumbled upon his feet. It took him a while before he could walk steadily.
