I Became the Companion of the Gods

61 – EP.17 Dances with Wolves -3

En Varg.

The festival of wolves, whose name means wolf.

It is held once every five years and has the purpose of celebrating and blessing the fate of all wolves who have lived so far.

“But I’m not a wolf, is it really okay to participate?”

“It’s okay, it only has that meaning externally, but the reality of this festival is my father’s entertainment.”

Cor’s brown hair was burning red, as if he was still less angry.

The mere mention of Fenrir sparks a fire that seemed to subside.

In other words, the existence of the father has become a firewood for her daughter to grow her anger.

“More than that, ship owner, are you really okay? Even now, if I grabbed that rotten father by the collar and dried him…….”

“No, it’s okay. It’s a place to enjoy the festival anyway, and it’s an opportunity to get recognition for your relationship. I’ll make sure to get recognized!”

“Seonlord… !!”

The trials Fenrir gave me were all related to En Barg, and the contents were surprisingly simple.

First of all, it is a prerequisite to attend 5 events in En Barg.

1. Hunting festival

2. Turang Festival

3. Roaring Festival

4. Great food festival

5. Dance festival

The first, the hunting festival, is a hunting competition. It is an event to hunt wild animals living in the wilderness as much as possible.

For all wolves, hunting is the pride and foundation, and it is said that this competition is to prove it.

The second Tourange is a dueling competition. It is an event in which several packs of leader wolves fight each other to determine superiority and inferiority.

It was created with the intention that strength is needed to protect the group, and that the leader should set an example among them.

The third roar is a performance competition. It is an event to determine which of the wolves can roar the loudest.

As a loud roar plays an important role in stimulating the instincts of wolves at the start of hunting, it is said that the voice is also important, and this competition was created.

The fourth, the gluttony festival, is an eating contest. It’s literally an event to see how much food you eat.

There is no particular reason for this, and it is said that this tournament was created because Fenrir seemed to enjoy it.

The Last Dance Festival is not a contest, but an event where all the wolves dance to enjoy the end of the festival.

It is said to be a flower of a festival held to commemorate and congratulate the end of En Barg safely.

En Barg has a total of 5 events prepared like this, and Fenrir’s ordeal was to win all 4 competitions except for the last dance festival.

If he doesn’t win even one, he’ll never hand over Cor to me.

But everyone said that if I won, they would acknowledge me even a little bit.

The word “Very little” Is quite jarring, but… ….”

Anyway, it is said that it is possible to be recognized by the adult father-in-law, but as a son-in-law, it is impossible not to do it.

“Because I will use my abilities to the fullest to win all of them. You do not have to worry!”

“Yes… ! Then I’ll be looking forward to the performance of the ship owner!!”

It’s a pity that I can’t spend leisurely watching the festival with Cor, but the current situation isn’t too bad.

A chance to officially recognize your relationship with Korwa as a bonus while enjoying the festival in your own way.

It’s an ordeal, but to be honest, to me, it’s just a condiment that makes the festival more enjoyable.

‘Then where should I enjoy it to the fullest!’

“What the f*ck!! Hey, you despicable wolf pups!!”

The first event, the hunting festival.

The wolves rushed out to hunt, and I was a slow starter, not as mobile as they were.

Still, I thought that if I used my abilities and hunted diligently, I would be able to win.

Actually, I had a plain sword and I also had the ability to foresee, so the hunting itself was worth it.

But I immediately ran into the biggest obstacle, because of the wolves around me.

Dozens of wolves roaming around me, not anywhere else.

I intercept the prey I find first.

I thought it wouldn’t work, so I changed the hunting ground, but these wolves followed me until the end and hindered me.

‘f*ck!! It must be Fenrir… ! That bastard must have instigated it!!’

They said it was a noble ordeal and got off… ! You’ve become completely black!

It’s dirty. Fenrir was very nasty.

Don’t even call it a sacred festival…….

Where do you see this spectacle of playing dirty in order to kill only one guy, is this a sacred festival?

“Haa… !!”

But there must be a tiny bit of my fault for not foreseeing that this would interfere.

I should have planned the strategy considering the variables…… For some reason, I miss Yata’s presence today.

If it were Yata, he would have foreseen the current situation in advance, informed him, and even set up countermeasures.

However, compared to Yata, my foreknowledge ability, which is infinitely weaker, could not read this situation in advance.

‘What should I do now….’

I said I would win with confidence, but I couldn’t properly hunt a single one.

On the other hand, the other wolves who have gone far to hunt must have already made progress one by one.

If we continue like this, we might end up in last place, let alone win.

A failure from the very beginning…….

It’s embarrassing. It drives me crazy thinking about how confident I was with Cor just a few minutes ago.

“I’m going crazy….”

I looked up at the sky for a moment in a distant situation, and saw that many birds were flying in groups as if mocking me.

If I had wings, I would have flew to a hunting ground without wolves and hunted.

This is the first time I’ve ever been so envious of wings.

‘Wait a minute? Wing… ?’

Suddenly, a good idea passed through my head.

Wolves cannot fly, but birds can.

This means that wolves can never hunt flying birds.

‘Then I… ?’

From noble mtl dot com

Looking up at the sky, I gently close my eyes and open them. I try to read the flow of air calmly.

Innumerable lines that gradually become clearer and begin to be visible.

In the sky where the birds were flying, there was a string that only I could see.

“Ha ha, ha ha ha ha… !!”

Okay!!

***

The first trial and event, the hunting festival, ended with my overwhelming victory.

The reason we were able to win was simple.

The birds that the wolves could never hunt were all the birds they hunted.

First, use Tia’s air control ability to pull the birds out of the air.

And after putting the birds together in the air, he swung his sword and cut the birds in two at once.

There is no prey that is easier to catch than the birds that were unguarded that they would be safe because they were flying.

That’s why I succeeded in catching a large number of birds such as eagles, condors, and buzzards.

On the other hand, it seems that the animals on the ground that noticed the hunting festival were not easy to hunt, perhaps because they were more vigilant.

The amount of prey the wolves caught was remarkably small compared to my achievements.

“Congratulations on winning the championship, Seonju… !! You were amazing… !!”

“You don’t have to praise me that much. In the end, I was able to achieve this by borrowing the abilities of my companions.”

“No… ! That power is also the power of the ship owner in the end! Besides, that idea came from the wisdom of the shipowner… ?”

“Is that so?”

“Yes! So you can be proud of yourself… !!”

“Okay. And thank you for congratulating me.”

“hehehe♡ Say something… !!”

As you quietly stroke Cor’s head, her tail starts spinning rapidly like a propeller.

It’s not a good thing to have body parts that humans don’t have that represent one’s emotions.

When you have to act, you have to pay more attention to one thing besides facial expressions and actions.

However, they are more honest than humans when it comes to honestly expressing their feelings.

The way she wags her tail and pricks her ears is so cute and lovely that it makes me smile.

It made me feel really happy to have an animal like this by my side.

“Come to think of it, Captain, isn’t it time for the Turange to begin…? ?”

“Oh! Is that so? Gotta go.”

“I’ll be cheering you on from the stands!! Please win the Turang Islands… !!”

“Yes, thank you!”

The second ordeal we enter thanks to the support of our companion wolf.

I felt like anyone could beat my opponent now.

***

Since it was a 1v1 battle, Turange itself was easy for me.

The experience of fighting and winning against Do-chul gave me great strength. No matter which wolf leader appeared, they looked infinitely weaker than Do-chul.

It’s not that you fight only with kang, but the fact that you feel that your opponent’s ability is weak is a big factor in winning.

Furthermore, I have Yata’s ability to foresee the future.

Because he knows the future, he easily avoids the wolf’s attack and counterattacks.

With just that series of movements, most wolves would fall down after being hit by my hard back of a sword.

I’m sorry wolves, but this Turange will end with my win lightly.

‘It’s finally the end.’

I have risen to the final stage and am waiting for my next opponent in the arena.

The opponent in the final match was the red-haired wolf, who obviously looked the strongest among the chief wolves.

Even in the actual game, his movements were faster and sharper than any other wolf.

It may be difficult to defeat by simply dodging and counterattacking……

After thinking about the opponent method for a while, Hati, who was the host of Turange, came up and started the finals.

“From now on, the final final in Turange begins! The final is a human versus the leader of the red wolf pack…….”

“Huh?”

“…… It was a wolf, but due to an emergency, there will be a player replacement for a while.”

A huge presence walking over the stadium.

The size is similar to other wolves, but the presence he exudes is completely different.

A wolf that looks so powerful that one wonders if such a wolf ever existed.

For some reason, that wolf looks stronger than Taochil…….

“No, f*ck?! That’s not just a wolf, it’s Fenrir!!”

“Human, is there a problem?”

“So many problems! Where is the organizer coming to the competition directly?! It’s out of balance!!”

It wasn’t even in the entry. The wolf, who had not even registered, suddenly appeared as a pinch hitter.

That is an act that goes beyond a simple rule violation and crosses the line. Are you determined to ruin the contest now?!

“Cheol?”

“No. However, it is against fairness for a wolf who has not even participated in a pinch hitter!”

“It doesn’t matter, I’m the organizer of this contest. So I am the law!”

Have you seen such a mad dictator!

Somehow, it didn’t bother me much this time in Turange…… I had been silent with this thought from the beginning.

‘Giraffe Grandpa… You are right. Shinsu are only crazy people!’

Even now, he was taking the mysterious first win.

“I’m really going to turn around.”

Perhaps it would be better now, once Fenrir was the opponent, it was absolutely impossible to win.

The opponent is a substitute. Even if I’m a Shinsoo, I can’t win, so how can I, a human, fight against him…….

“Father… ?”

“Oh! My daughter! You came this close because you wanted to see your father fight!!”

“No? I’m just here to ask. I want to hear why my father is dealing with the ship owner.”

“Mmm! Unfortunately, the wolf, who was the human’s final opponent, was unable to attend due to a sudden illness. Wouldn’t it be a pity to end the holy Turangée with a bye?”

It’s ugly.

How can you tell such a blatant lie so easily… ?

Has the time been wasted? I can’t help but admire it.

“Isn’t it too much for your father to come on as a substitute?”

“No. Feeling that something unfortunate could happen this time, I added a new rule! If there are unavoidable circumstances, the pinch hitter can play one game, and the rule that anyone can be the pinch hitter… !”

“Aha, is that so… ?”

“Yes! So, our cute squall! Stay there and watch as this father defeats humans!”

“No, I don’t mean to.”

Kor’s flame is burning stronger than ever.

A blue-violet flame that I’ve seen in the snowy fields. That was a color that only came out when Cor was extremely angry.

Kor was expressing his anger with flames.

But she turned her head toward me, trying her best to keep her smile.

“Sir?”

“Eh, huh?”

“Could you please get out of there for a minute? I also want to play as a pinch hitter for the ship owner.”

“Wait! What do you mean? Daughter?”

“Why is that? I also want to use the rules that my father revised, right?”

“No, that is nonsense… !”

As Fenrir started to make various excuses, I gave up my seat to Cor.

I thought I should reject it, but I was worried for a while, but I passed it on because I was afraid of Cor’s bloody smile.

So, having come down to the position of a spectator, I came to the place where Korr was and watched the game.

To be honest, it’s not a satisfying ending, but I can’t help it. Because this is also the karma created by Fenrir.

“Hey, Hati.”

“Why… Why?”

“Start now.”

Hati, whose PTSD came, nodded several times and obediently followed Cor’s words.

Instead of the ringing of a bell, Hati’s resounding cry echoes throughout the arena. Announced that the match had begun.

Fenrir, who was still talking gibberish, finally came to his senses and wanted to urgently change his rules.

The match turned into a one-sided beating as Cor’s fist pierced Fenrir’s mouth one step faster.

The final was quickly turned into chaos and ruin.

But I wonder if this is the real Turange.
