Patrick did not immediately go to his bathroom as Ezekiel expected rather he turned to stare at his phone." Deveyne,do I have any new messages?" Patrick asked while staring at his phone with a smile." Sorry,Patrick. The system is still on update so I have yet to check for any new messages but I guess there should be one,"a voice sounded out. Deveyne was an AI system installed in the castle and only Patrick knew about it and maybe the creator. When Patrick learnt about it the AI system was already in bad shape so ever since his arrival he has been trying to repair the AI and had managed to do so after years of hard work but after that he learnt that the AI's system was out of date which was why he decided to update it after much consideration and he also restricted anyone from entering any of the room upstairs. His efforts had finally paid off as after the update his AI would be complete which would be of great help to him as there are a lot of secrets in this castle that he has yet to unfold and only the AI holds access to most of the secret rooms inside the castle and even the underground rooms can only be opened by the AI.
"Deveyne how long till you complete your update?" Patrick asked as he checked his phone. He found a notification and immediately an image of a green eyed lady formed in his mind.' Thank you and have a goodnight.' A smile crept on Patrick's face after reading the message. He was lost for a moment and did not even seem to listen to what his AI was saying to him. He instantly snapped out of his daze after a while ." I was a bit distracted. Sorry for that. May you pardon what you just said?" Patrick requested as he closed his phone and returned it to his bedside table." Its okay Patrick. The update will possibly be over by tomorrow evening as I only need to deal with a few things and there are various rooms that need to be repaired which why it is taking so long for me to finish a simple update," Deveyne said.
"Its alright with me as I only need access to some of the upstairs rooms as only they contain the experience of the previous wolf emperor and some of his martial arts which are very important to me. Is there anything that I should prepare for tomorrow?" Patrick asked with a smile." After the update is complete there will likely be a huge commotion so it is better if others are not present or else my existence will be exposed."" You may just proceed as Alfred is having a say off tomorrow while Eze will be one of the senior adjudicators in a contest that he is likely to attend tomorrow so you can do whatever you want but try to minimise the commotion as much as possible," Patrick said as he headed towards the bathroom and the room fell silent.
After taking a bath, Patrick burnt his clothes stained in blood before washing the Wolf king. Apart from Patrick, no one else was able to touch the Wolf king probably due to fear and also due to the fact that it was Patrick's only protector and friend whom he had gone through thick and thin with. When Patrick was young, he had once saved an injured wolf and that was probably the first time he learnt that he was able to communicate with a wolf as when he had touched the Wolf, the moon mark on his chest had shone with white light while his eyes had also turned to white. In that condition his senses were enhanced and he was able to communicate with the wolves in that condition. After so many years he was now able to activate such a condition with ease and without any external stimulation.
Closing his eyes for a moment,Patrick decided to relax and activate that state. When he opened his eyes again they were now white in colour." The new moon is about to rise in a few days. What is your plan?" The wolf king asked Patrick." I already have a formulated plan in my mind for that day. This time around I might not necessarily lose control of myself as always but if it is impossible to stop it then I won't resist instead I'll go on a rampage and kill to my hearts content. It is high time I accept who I am and try to control myself in that state or it will only get worst and I might end up injuring those closest to me," Patrick said with a new found confidence as he scrubbed the Wolf King.
The wolf king extended its paws and touched Patrick's chest." Your heartbeat is erotic and it is speeding past its normal rate. This comes from your heart and the heart never lies. You have finally decided to accept someone into your boring life. It seems the game is becoming more interesting. You have fallen in love as you humans always claim. I won't interfere with your decision but you should remember that you are special so don't be shy and flee from your true nature. You are the only human so far who can ignore the barrier set between you,humans and the spiritual wolf realm so maybe the solution you seek might be in the spirit world. We should find a chance and sneak into that place, " the wolf king said in a pleased voice showing his approval ." What are you talking about? When did I fall in love? Patrick said in a low voice but he did not dare to stare directly into the eyes of the wolf king. In his heart he knew that the Wolf king was speaking the truth but he didn't dare to agree with it ." Kid ,you are still to young to deceive me. You should not forget that you spent most of your childhood with me so no one can claim to know you better than myself," the Wolf king said smugly.
