"Since I Became a Werewolf"

Chapter 7 Leila

"Can you answer me why you are standing here, sir? It's okay if you don't want to answer." Seeing that the other person was quite approachable, Glenn continued to probe.

He didn't expect to get an answer, but unexpectedly, the man spoke, his voice low and hoarse:

"I'm considering whether to save her. If I do, I have to go back to Dude to find a clinic. If I don't, it's not good..."

"Uh..." Glenn didn't expect that he was struggling with this. After considering for a moment, he said, "Maybe I can help. If you are willing, help me take these things back to my house, and I'll take this... lady to the clinic. How about that?"

The man simply nodded after a few seconds of silence.

Seeing this, Glenn smiled and extended his hand, saying, "Hello, I'm... Glenn Niebankelu."

Considering that there might be no need to contact the acquaintances of the original owner anymore, Glenn decided to use his own name. Anyway, his name didn't sound out of place when translated into this language.

The man looked at Glenn's hand and slowly shook it, saying, "Black Crow."

Black Crow? What a strange name. Judging from his demeanor, it doesn't seem like a nickname or something... Glenn couldn't help but complain in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.

He then told Black Crow where his house was located and where the key was hidden, and he wasn't worried about what the other person would do.

First, there wasn't anything valuable at home. Second, from Black Crow's intention to save someone, he could tell that he wasn't a person of bad character.

Not to mention, Glenn had already memorized Black Crow's smell. With the werewolf's strong sense of smell, it would be easy to find the other person.

After Black Crow took his things, Glenn immediately checked the condition of the woman lying in the weeds.

This was a woman in her fifties. Her hair was slightly graying, her face had deep wrinkles, and her clothes were simple. At a glance, she was a commoner.

There was a bit of blood at the corner of her mouth, and there were many bruises on her exposed arms. Glenn knew that the other person had suffered heavy blunt force blows. The cuts and blood on several parts of her clothes indicated there were also knife wounds, but they weren't deep enough to be fatal.

After simply treating the injuries, Glenn carried the injured person on his back and said to Black Crow, who was standing quietly aside:

"I'm leaving first, Mr. Black Crow. Remember to deliver the things to my house."

After seeing the other person nod, he turned and left, and Glenn also headed towards the town of Dude.

...

After saying goodbye to her friends, Leila returned home as usual. But when she saw the scene at home, she was stunned.

The furniture was scattered all over the place, in a complete mess, as if it had been ransacked.

But these weren't the most important. The most important thing was that her mother wasn't there.

"Mom! Mom! Where are you? God! Please bless her and make sure nothing happens to her!"

Tears streamed down Leila's face as she searched everywhere in the house for her mother.

But the house was only so big, and there was no sign of her mother at all.

She rushed out of the door again and asked the neighbors.

Perhaps hearing the commotion, Mrs. Mann, who lived opposite Leila's house, opened the door and happened to run into the extremely anxious Leila. She seemed to understand what had happened and beckoned to Leila, saying:

"Dear girl, it was Bob who came back. He drank a lot and kept beating Mrs. Deli in your house. I saw him chasing and beating your mother in that direction."

Dad!? Leila's heart tightened. God knows what that lunatic would do to mom!

Not caring to say anything else, Leila lifted her simple skirt and ran in the direction Mrs. Mann pointed.

...

Carrying a person weighing about a hundred pounds for a dozen kilometers wasn't difficult for Glenn at the moment.

Of course, a dozen kilometers was just an example. From the outskirts to the town was only two or three kilometers.

After asking around, he finally sent the injured lady to a private clinic.

There were three doctors and two nurses in the clinic. After the nurses carried the person in, one of the doctors came forward and asked:

"Sir, are you a family member of the injured?"

"No, I encountered this lady on the road." Glenn immediately shook his head and explained.

"I see. So, are you willing to cover the corresponding expenses, sir?"

"Sorry, I don't have any money on me. Let's wait for the lady to wake up and have her cover it herself."

"...All right, sir."

Then, Glenn waited here for a while. He thought it would be better to wait until the person woke up before leaving.

It wasn't long before a doctor told Glenn that the person had woken up. He then stood up and said, "Then I'll leave first..."

Just then, a familiar figure rushed into the clinic. As soon as the other person entered the door, she grabbed Glenn's hand, with tears streaming down and breathing heavily, saying: "Sir, did you just carry an injured lady here?"

Leila? Why is she here? Glenn nodded blankly.

The town of Dude wasn't too big or too small, and many of the townspeople knew each other. Glenn carrying a person who was on the verge of death and covered in blood while looking for a clinic on the street was quite noticeable.

Leila had been searching in the town for a long time, and her tears were almost running dry. Just when she was in despair, she suddenly heard someone mention Glenn's matter. Instantly, she had hope. Remembering Glenn's physical features, she ran to the clinic here regardless of her shortness of breath and physical exhaustion.

After getting an affirmative answer, Leila rushed into the consulting room.

When she saw the weak person on the bed, she quickly threw herself beside the bed and burst into tears:

"Mom..."

The woman on the bed also tightly hugged Leila and wept as well, "My poor child..."

Glenn and several doctors and nurses stood outside, watching quietly.

"What a touching scene!" One doctor sighed like this.

"Yes..." The two nurses also wiped their tears and agreed.

Only Glenn seemed to be thinking about something on the side.

Sure enough, she's a very beautiful girl. Both her eyes, face, and nose are beautiful. No wonder the original owner noticed her and even knew her name clearly... Glenn recalled the scene just now and made comments in his heart.

Perhaps remembering that there was a benefactor, Leila forced herself to stabilize her emotions, regulated her breathing, said something to her mother, and then slowly came to Glenn, looked at Glenn with her red-rimmed eyes, and curtsied:

"Thank you very much, sir. Really, if it weren't for you, I can't imagine what would have happened. So, could you leave your home address? I will visit to express my gratitude in person. Please!"

Seeing such a beautiful girl gratefully begging him like this, Glenn thought he should thank Black Crow instead. But if he said that, he would have to explain, and the thought passed through his mind and was dismissed.

My home? You won't want to go. You'll probably be scared half to death when you get there... Glenn originally wanted to refuse, but seeing the other person's attitude, she wouldn't give up easily. So he nodded and said:

"Byeck Town. Go straight in through the main entrance. You'll see a villa and a three-story house. The one sandwiched in between is my home."

Let the beasts secretly protect her then. There shouldn't be a problem... Glenn thought secretly.

Hearing this, Leila's small face was filled with joy. She bowed to Glenn again and said, "You are such an extremely kind gentleman."

Hehe, you have no idea what you'll go through... Glenn was full of mischievous thoughts in his heart.

"Byeck Town?"

The doctors and nurses around looked at each other. They seemed not to have heard of this town, which Glenn had expected.

Looking at their confused expressions, Glenn just said that it was rather remote and immediately said goodbye and left.

The two towns were so close. He didn't believe that no one here knew. As long as Leila asked around properly, she would find it.
