Reborn as the Werewolf Ancestor

Chapter 2: Walking into a Trap

At night, Eagle Castle.

　　When the bright moonlight shone into the entire castle, everyone had fallen asleep, except for the patrolling soldiers who were holding oil lamps and patrolling everywhere.

　　At this time, a black shadow took advantage of the gap between the soldiers' patrols and quickly slipped into the castle. He looked up at the bedroom where Kane was, raised his hand and climbed up.

　　In the bedroom, Kane seemed to be asleep, and a tiny breathing sound came from his mouth.

　　Suddenly, there was a slight noise from the window.

　　"Crack."

　　Followed by a slight sound of landing

　　"Bang..."

　　A black shadow quietly walked to Kane's bed.

　　Looking at Kane who fell into a deep sleep, the black shadow felt very confused.

　　Obviously, he had shot a crossbow into the other party's heart last night, and even watched the other party die with his own eyes.

　　How come he was training by the castle like nothing happened the next day? If I hadn't been careful, I wouldn't know how to explain to that adult.

Fortunately, the other party seemed to be deliberately not making this matter public, which also gave the black shadow another chance to assassinate.

This time, the black shadow promised to make the target die completely.

Thinking, the black shadow pulled out the long knife from his back.

He didn't believe it. Could it be that after chopping off the head, the other party would still be alive and kicking.

Immediately, the long knife slashed at Kane at a high speed, and he, who should have been asleep, opened his eyes at this moment and rolled to the side with all his strength, so that the long knife finally hit the pillow behind him.

"Puff..."

"How could it be..." The black shadow whispered in disbelief.

"How could he be awake, right?" Kane, who rolled off the bed, had already picked up the long sword and stood up.

The black shadow, who noticed something was wrong, stopped talking, and swung a knife flower to s***h at Kane again.

"Action." Kane shouted loudly to the surroundings.

Then he raised his long sword and collided with the opponent's long sword.

"Dang."

Kane, who was outnumbered, was quickly suppressed by the opponent's attack.

More and more knife marks emerged from his body.

But this did not make Kane feel timid at all, but instead stimulated the beast hidden in his blood.

He roared excitedly.

"Ah!!!"

And gradually equaled the opponent in strength.

Just then, the door of the bedroom was knocked open.

Two men and women in leather armor rushed in quickly, and quickly cooperated with Kane to suppress the black shadow.

In less than half a minute, the situation was completely reversed. Until this moment, the black shadow, who still had the fantasy of escaping, also gave up. Kane knocked the opponent's long knife away and immediately ordered the other two to suppress the opponent.

After taking out a thick rope from the room, Kane tied the black shadow tightly with the cooperation of the two.

Until this moment, Kane realized that something was wrong with his body. He walked to the window and observed his body in the moonlight.

I don't know when his arms had grown a lot of white hair, his nails were longer and thinner than before, and two canine teeth were exposed.

Just when Kane was surprised by this phenomenon, all the changes that had happened before quickly disappeared and returned to their original appearance, including the knife marks on his body.

"Tell me! Who sent you to assassinate Lord Kane?"

Just as Kane was probing his body, the woman in leather armor next to him began to interrogate him.

Catherine Chus was the woman's name. She was born in the barony where Kane was, in the subordinate village of Maco.

She showed an extremely outstanding swordsman talent since she was a child, so she was valued and cultivated by the former baron, Rachel Gerard.

And Catherine herself did not disappoint the baron's expectations. At the age of 16, she broke through the apprentice swordsman and reached the first level. In the next two years, she broke through to the middle level of the first level again. It can be predicted that in the next few years, she will definitely break through to the second level, or even the third level.

Unlike Catherine who started the interrogation impatiently, another leather-armored man beside her tied up the shadow and came to Kane's side, and he also saw the whole process of Kane's change.

But he did not speak, but stood silently aside, and only spoke after Kane recovered.

"Lord Kane, are you okay?"

Kane, who came back to his senses, looked at the man deeply: "Marcus, I'm fine, you and Catherine will suppress the assassin together."

"Yes, sir."

Looking at the other party's leaving figure, Kane's mind emerged with the memory of Marcus.

Marcus Eimer is the third son of Opide Eimer. As the third son of the baron family, he has no inheritance rights. In the future, he will either work as a civil servant in the family or leave the family and become a wandering knight.

It just so happened that Baron Opide and his father Rachel Gerard were good friends, so he entrusted his son to the other party, hoping to obtain a knight title.

Marcus himself was also very ambitious. With the help of his loyal lord Rachel Gerard, he quickly obtained the title of knight and won merits many times, turning his lifelong title of knight into an inheritance system.

Suppressing the doubts about his body, Kane knew that now was not a good time to explore.

He walked out of the room and followed Marcus and Catherine to escort the shadow to the basement of the castle.

Outside the bedroom, the noise made earlier made the servants and guards in the castle gather outside the door, and the butler Jace was trying his best to comfort them.

As one of the few people who knew Kane's plan, Jace's duty was to explain the matter to everyone and comfort their emotions.

The three escorts ignored the attention of others and went straight through the crowd to the basement of the castle.

Marcus lit the torch on the wall, and a ray of light finally appeared in the dim basement. Several people imprisoned the shadow in a cage and tied his hands behind the chair.

After making sure that the black shadow would not break free, Catherine pulled off the black shadow's veil.

The face of a young Osos man appeared in front of the three people. He had green-blue eyes and short yellow hair.

Looking at the other person's face, Kane said with some doubt: "Strange face... I don't know you."

The black shadow did not answer, but just stared at the three people.

Seeing the black shadow's uncooperative attitude, Catherine punched him in the stomach, making him shiver in pain, but the black shadow still didn't say a word.

"Boy, you don't say it, right? I have plenty of ways." Turning around, Catherine went to get the execution tools.

At this time, the steady Marcus said: "As far as I know, the Osos people generally live in the northwest of the kingdom, which is neither far nor close to us."

　　"And the Osos people who master the extraordinary abilities of knights can only be nobles, but ordinary noble children disdain to be assassins, so they can only be wandering knights or downtrodden nobles."

　　The shadow's calm eyes finally showed a slight change, which also proved that Marcus's statement was correct.
