If my intuition is correct, the way people look at Amelia Gana is unusual.

And I am one of the writers of Nam Gdelki. To be honest, it was a family that lived so assimilated with nature that sometimes I was confused as to whether this group was a group of people or a group of animals, so my senses are by no means inferior.

For the past few months, I have been wandering around the territory with the wolves.

Even the children of author Delkisinam usually do not hang out with hunters from the age of seven, but my story is a little different.

It is said that among the lineage of giants who lived in this area in the distant past, there were those who competed with nature and sat at the top of the food chain, and on the contrary, there were those who lived with nature as their friend. Although the two types of giants were not at odds with each other, in the end, those who survived until the end These are the people who have risen to the top of the food chain.

Since they were not at odds with each other, some of the moderate faction that disappeared first were accepted by the original giants, and those giants intermarried with humans again, resulting in the current people of the Delkisi Barony.

Naturally, it is said that the abilities of the ‘those who disappeared first’ were hardly passed down. It appears that this is the first time that they have been directly expressed in this way in the Barony of Delkisi.

I can only guess that the lineage was left on my mother’s side, who was on the smaller side among Delkisi people.

And I was smaller than my mother.

Although I was small, I inherited the ability to live in harmony with nature, so I had no problem literally running around the forest of Baron Delkisi naked. Although not all of the wolf packs I met last time followed me, The young wolf and some large wolves that were met at that time remained near Delki City Castle.

Since I was leading a small but obedient pack of wolves, the adults were not too worried about me. My mother was still very worried, but after confirming my abilities, she did not object too much. Even though she was very worried, my mother Also, Delki City was my hometown.

Even at such a young age, I was recognized as a force in Delki City and was allowed to patrol the surrounding area. Although the patrol was limited to the area south of Delki City, it was quite a special event considering my age. Negotiating with nature. Even if you have learned the law, it is not usually considered ‘full force’.

Isn’t it different from catching deer and dealing with wolves and bears? And, if we forget, there were also barbarians who tried to invade the south.

Well, anyway.

Although there is a border between the Barony and the Grand Duchy, it was customary for us, who did not bother to set up a guard post, to have the hunter who found the guest first guide the guest.

If there had been another adult in the group I was in, he would have stepped up for me, but right now I was alone. But I couldn’t let the wolf pack go.

I got off the carriage and saw an adult man with a beard coming towards me. He was quite tall, but of course he was not as tall as the men from the Delki family. He must have been around 180 centimeters? He had the impression that his hair and beard were growing in abundance, but he had a beard on his cheek. His hair was neatly trimmed and his beard was trimmed short, giving him a very neat appearance. The sideburns that continued from his beard were also neatly trimmed, and his bangs were neatly parted in a 2:8 ratio. The hair on the nape of his neck was probably also neatly trimmed.

Anyone who looks at it gives the impression that he is a great nobleman.

Moreover, the child who came out after him was Grand Duchess Amelia.

That means that that man is the Grand Duke of Grattenmount.

I thought for a moment.

If you are an ordinary hunter, there is no need to give an aristocratic greeting. The opponent is a family that is the second highest in the country after the royal family, and although it is a bit far away, it is someone who is in line to the throne, but it is not so tight-knit in Delki City, a distant relative of the family. .

Exactly, that’s what I heard.

Among the Delkisi hunters, there are some who are from the Delkisi family, and some who are not. There are nobles without titles, knights, and commoners. And Delkisi does not necessarily distinguish between such things. In Delkisian, a family is simply an outsider. It’s just an appropriate amount.

The Archduke knew this, so he didn’t expect great manners from hunters mixed with commoners… …

Well, I have to protect it, right?

Even though what I was wearing was boar skin clothes that I (the pack of slow wolves) had slaughtered myself!

On the outside, it looks more like a blanket than clothes!

First, I held the knee part of the dress up with both hands, just like when I was wearing a skirt.

And just as I learned from my mother, I bowed slightly and bowed my knees.

“My name is Elsie Delkisi, the eldest daughter of the writer Delkisi.”

“Yes, I have heard the rumors.”

At my greeting, the Grand Duke of Grattenmount smiled and nodded, then looked around and said,

“I heard that you have awakened the abilities of a druid… … ?”

He asked that question as if he was carefully checking.

“Yes, I usually take him with me as a companion when scouting around the area.”

“Ho. Then here too?”

“Yes, but I kept it waiting in the forest because the horse might be surprised to see it and it might not look good for people coming from out of town.”

If I had to be honest, the clothes I was wearing right now were ugly, but there was no need to emphasize that.

“I’m fine. And these horses are also trained as warhorses. They won’t run away just because a wolf appears in front of them. If it’s okay with you, I’d like to see what its capabilities are.”

“Do you mind?”

“Even if it looks like this, I walked the battlefield in my 20s. I once fought off the northern barbarians with your father. It’s not the first time I’ve seen a northern wolf, so you don’t have to worry.”

oh.

Even though he is short, he seems to have a lot of courage. Now that I think about it, I think my father also said it a few times. Even before I was born, whenever he had time, he would come and participate in hunting.

Even though they are far away, relatives are relatives. Well, since Delki City is so far north, there is a tendency to treat everyone else as southerners, but if you think about it, the Great Duke of Gratton Mount was also a place that was very biased towards the north.

However, even if the Archduke was okay, I was still a little uneasy.

The Archduke must have felt my eyes on his daughter, and he placed his hand on Amelia’s shoulder and said,

“My daughter is also from Grattenmount. I don’t know what the future holds, but at least until she goes home, she will interact with your family in many ways. Thinking about future visits, I don’t think it’s a bad idea to look at it now.◦# ◦

Rather, it’s just something you don’t want to see?

In the novel I read, the Grand Duke of Grattonmount was not a very prominent person. He was described as caring about his daughter, but at the same time being a very noble person and not often showing his emotions openly.

What can I say, the person in front of me now had the face of a fishing enthusiast with a fishing spot right in front of him.

Hmm, in the past, Yi Bang-won showed the image of a king without blood or tears at the same time as a somewhat immature person like a hunting enthusiast, so can we assume that this person is also like that?

Maybe it’s because I came to Delki City where I don’t have to worry about what other people think that’s why I can make that kind of expression.

In fact, Amelia was looking up at her father with disbelief.

“Okay.”

Because Amelia is also the main character of the novel I read.

If he had the same attitude as the main character, he wouldn’t faint just because a few wolves approached him.

I turned back, put both hands together and brought them to my mouth.

“Awww!”

And, imitating the sound of a wolf howling, he shouted that.

Druid’s ability greatly reduces the aggression of opposing animals.

But that’s it. I have to take care of the rest. It’s all up to me to be recognized by the wolf pack or to become its leader.

So, a negotiation process was necessary. Of course, we did not fight for our lives like adults persuading a deer, but we had to fight in the ‘way of young wolves’. We had to communicate in a wolf way. There was no need to be on all fours like a wolf. , At least it had to be at a level where ‘wolves could understand’.

It was after going through that process that I was able to become the leader of this small group.

Aww—

I hear a voice responding like that—

“Ohh.”

The Archduke, standing a little away behind me, let out a small exclamation.

Although he was young, a wolf whose shoulder height was taller than my standing height sauntered out.

The name of the girl crawling out from between the trees is Gray. It was a name given roughly based on the color of its fur.

The wolf who came before me with flashing yellow eyes looked over his head, looked at the Archduke and Amelia, then sat down in front of me as if he had no interest in anything, opened his mouth wide and yawned.

And after that, about seven northern wolves, somewhat smaller than the grays but still much larger than the average wolf, followed.

“Great.”

The Archduke exclaimed with great satisfaction.
