Chapter 57 - Parade of Beasts

"Can you also communicate with the other beasts?"

Feihren asked the Alpha Spirit Wolf as he led all the creatures that he saved from the black market towards the alternate entrance.

He was unsure if he could control all of these wild beasts. Although they were being obedient for now, he was uncertain what would happen when they got to the surface and arrived in the city streets.

"Yes, I can. Although I am certain that my fellow beasts would listen to you just because they could clearly see that you were the one that saved them." The Alpha Wolf replied.

He was highly satisfied with all this. Aside from the huge bags of loot that he had gathered, he had done a good deed by liberating these beasts and ending the illegal black market activities. Although he had made an enemy of the people doing these things, Feihren was not in the slightest bit afraid. As long as what he did is right, everything else will be fine.

Obviously, hunting and using beasts for work and labor could be considered legal, but there is a thin line between the right and the wrong beast for each activity. Especially the Spirit Wolves. They are the treasured spirit guardians of the Elven race, and it seems that the humans had just trapped and harmed their treasured guardians. Snow Tigers, Giant Red Bears, and even the Iron-skinned boars belong to certain tribes such as the Ice Trolls, Orcs, and Forest Ogres. These animals were definitely off limits for humans.

Carrying around 4 huge sacks of loot, Feihren dragged everything towards the hole that led outside.

"Let me carry those for you, Chosen One. I would also gladly offer my humble self to be your mount."

The Alpha wolf kowtowed towards Feihren. Even though Feihren was considerably tall, the gigantic alpha wolf easily dwarfed him. Even the other adult Spirit wolves were smaller by around a meter in comparison to the Alpha.

"Oh no, it is not necessary. I can handle it myself." Feihren declined the offer of the Alpha Spirit Wolf as he continued dragging the sacks.

"No, I insist, Chosen One. It is destiny that the Alpha would be of service to you." The Alpha was insistent. Making sure that Feihren could only accept the 'humble offer'.

Although it was a bit awkward riding something that is able to speak the human language, Feihren could not deny that this was one of his dreams back when he was just a little boy.

It was definitely the definition of someone being a 'bad-ass' back on Earth.

But even with all this, Feihren had though to deny the allegations of him being the Chosen One. After all, from what has happened so far, the only thing that was clear was that he gained the ownership of the elven treasures all of a sudden due to the abundant "life force" inside him and nothing else. This explanation could wait for some other time when they had returned to the elven village.

The priority, for now, is to escort all these beasts back to where they belong safely, which would mostly be within the Central Woodlands. Aside from the Snow Tigers, that he would be caring for from now on, these beasts were locals of the other races within this region. So it won't be difficult for them to return home.

Finally, all of the beasts were now out of the hole of the black market. Although... the streets became a bit chaotic as people started witnessing the gradual appearance of multiple beasts within the city. Over 50 beasts were standing still on the streets of Sechua City.

The news of the sudden beast appearance reached the ears of Allen and Mark.

Mark immediately knew that this was caused by Feihren. Although he thought that he was still planning to do the 'intricate' way, he was not shocked by the sudden commotion within the city. According to Zow's letter, aside from being the current king of the Wolfenstein Kingdom, this man was also the Chosen One.

He rushed towards the room that Feihren was supposed to be in. But when Mark opened, he saw a giant golem that was curled up in the room, carrying the two snow tiger cubs that had just awoken.

Although surprised, Mark had still muttered a proper sentence towards Samael.

"It seems that your master is done with his business here."

The giant red golem stood up as he nonchalantly walked towards one of the walls and headbutted it. The wall crumbled in an instant as a gaping hole appeared. Samael immediately jumped outside as he carried the two snow cubs with him, running towards where he sensed his master.

Allen, who had just woken up, received an emergency report from one of his guards.

Immediately fixing himself up, Allen hurriedly rode a horse in the direction of the said chaotic situation. "This has to be something related to what I felt last night..." Allen muttered to himself as he increased his speed.

The long line of the parading beasts had not harmed a single human as they walked straight towards the gate. The movement of this line was a bit sluggish considering that the beasts were avoiding contact with the running and screaming humans who were easily scared off.

Arriving at the city gate, Feihren was then blocked off by someone he was quite familiar with. The daughter of Mark, Marie Solit, one of the high ranking city guards within Sechua City.

"Ah, it's you. Could you allow me to pass? I just have to return all these animals to their homes..." Feihren casually asked Marie, forgetting that only Mark knew his real identity.

"What with all this mess that you're causing! Where did all these animals come from? I was right, I told Father that you could not be trusted and you have just proven it right!"

Marie loudly yelled at Feihren as numerous guards started to arrive, blocking the gate.

'Why does this scene feel so familiar... hmmm'
