Reincarnated As A Wolf With Cheats

Chapter 423 Constant Fear

Shin gazed at the rewards that were placed in front of him as he continued to munch. He had claimed only one of them, the rest still remaining.

[Rewards for the main quest:]

[-> +5 Levels Gain] [claim]

[-> Brothers Of Judgement will join your side.] [claim]

[-> Clue about the Heavenly Wolf Family.] [claim]

[-> System Update.] [claim]

[Rewards for sidequest:]

[-> Become the owner of the Gem of Truth.] [claimed]

[-> Hint about Gem Of Lie.] [claim]

He was now the official owner of the Gem of Truth, so it didn't matter where the gem went. No one would be able to use it unless he lets them too!

It was a bold move from his side and it was precisely because of this that he didn't have any problem with Mike taking the gem.

Furthermore, he didn't want to get on his bad side, after all, he wanted help from them.

Mike was smart, but Shin outsmarted him.

Although no one had been able to beat Mike's wits, it was probably for the first time that something happened against his expectations.

Shin stared at the shining screen in front of him, his eyes sparkling too.

'A 5 level up reward…', he smirked as he saw that.

He was now Lv.95, and 5 more levels meant he would easily reach Lv.100.

That was quite a tempting offer. It took all his strength to refrain from claiming it right now, saving for the future perhaps.

He had two things in mind, one - if he claimed the reward, his strength would increase by a lot. And two - if he were injured, due to level up, all his injuries would be healed instantly, with his MP, HP and everything else returning to normal, as if refilling.

So he calmed himself down and refrained from claiming it right away.

His attention was then caught by the successive lines in the screen and this time, he didn't hesitate to claim them, especially, the one that stated about Hint regarding gem of lie.

'Hmm, I already have the Gem of Lie, I wonder what hint is it going to give me…'

*Ding*

[You have claimed the reward for the side quest - Hint about Gem of Lie.]

[Hint: The Gem of Lie cannot be used by the owner of Gem of Truth unless it fused with the other existing gems of desert.]

Shin was partially confused after reading this as he had no idea about the existence of other gems.

He had to ask someone, and the frost dragon, whom he thought to be knowledgeable, appeared to be a great candidate.

"Hey…"

The frost dragon, who was complaining a second ago about the garbage food, was nibbling it down, licking his arms and even his lips - his long tongue helped him do so.

As Shin called him, his eyes cornered as he slightly included Shin in his field of vision.

"What?", he asked, not clearly audible with the food in his mouth.

"Uh, I have a question…", Shin continued.

'Ya, what is it?', this time, the frost dragon used telepathy, to communicate directly with Shin in his mind. This was so much better.

Though, it did surprise Shin.

'Ah…'

'Ahem.'

'So, I wanted to know about the gem of truth, lie and if any other gems existed.'

When the frost dragon heard this, he paused for a second, stared at Shin and continued eating.

This reaction was more than enough to confirm Shin that the dragon did know about the gems.

'Will you tell me?', Shin asked.

'…'

'Hey, I'm speaking to you, not to myself!', Shin stared at the dragon, his voice menacing, not audible by others though.

'What do you want to know about them specifically?', the dragon asked.

'Everything! Especially, their origination, their usage and everything that you know about them.'

And after hearing this, the frost dragon, who knew way too well about the matter for he had lived a long life, decided to reveal, but with the condition that was put forward.

'I have a condition though. If you agree to it, I will tell you.', he said.

"What condition?", Shin raised his voice.

Orion, who sat beside him, was suddenly surprised as Shin said this.

"What happened?", he stared at Shin in confusion, his heart beating faster because of the sudden jolt.

"Ah, nothing. I was talking to myself.", Shin smiled, a bit creepy.

"What a weirdo…", Orion murmured as he stared at Shin one last time, before grabbing yet another piece of meat and putting it in his mouth, gobbling it down after chewing only once or twice, for it was quite tender and juicy.

'So, what is the condition?'

'Hmm, you have to come to my kingdom once I have finished telling about this.', the dragon said, this time, glancing at Shin.

The way he looked at Shin right now, was quite different. It was as if his eyes were gentle, filled with warmth despite being the owner of the frost.

Shin looked at the sky as a flake of snow fell on his head.

He then said, 'I really want to fulfil that condition of yours…'

'I would definitely love to visit your place…'

'But I have a lot going on right now…', Shin then lowered his gaze, looking at the floor in front of him, his eyes almost losing liveliness.

The frost dragon was fully aware of Shin's worry.

Even though he was distant from the world, staying in his frost kingdom, he knew about the events that took place in the world.

Heck, he even watched the battles that occurred in the arena, from a self-made ice TV of his own!

'Is it about the Supreme ones that want you dead?', he asked.

Shin nodded, not surprised as he considered the dragon to be knowing about this.

He then said, 'Even now, I am scared…'

'I have left my people in the forest, thinking that they will be safe. I keep hoping that they could protect themselves in case anything happens…'

'But I am never 100% sure.'

'My will…'

'It feels as if I could lose the will to survive any time soon. This fear is eating me away, and I'm desperate for help.'

'A lot of time has already been lost, so, please, could it be possible to visit your place sometime later? When I'm free? Cause without the peace of mind, I would never fully devote myself to visiting or enjoying your kingdom.'
