Tehe(*´∀`)♪ I Was Picked Up By a Wolf - Chapter 22

Chapter 22

Chapter 22: Wish

After she was done crying, I let her help me with some of the house chores, which also served as some sort of rehabilitation exercise for her . We were all together when we ate lunch afterwards . I asked her why she was looking so hesitant to be there with us, and she strangely asked me back ‘Is it fine for me to be here?’ . Martha said that it was probably her first time feeling the warmth of another person, so she was confused . When we were done with lunch, I invited her to accompany me to the lake .

“Fenrir-san! Do you want to go to the lake together with me and Ell?”

“The lake? You mean the place where you picked me up?”

“Yeah! I always go there to practice my magic and hunt monsters . ”

“I see…But sorry, I don’t think I’ll go with you today . I want to be alone outside for a bit . ”

She said with an apologetic face .

“But you’ll come back before it’s dark, right?”

She seemed like she would disappear off somewhere so I just blurted that out .

“I will come back, don’t worry . I won’t leave this place until I have repaid you for saving my life . I know this is very selfish of me, but will you allow me to stay?”

“You heard her! Martha, she can right?”

Amelia’s face was smiling brightly when she asked Martha .

“Well, I guess it’s fine . ”

Amelia turned back towards the black fenrir after hearing her response .

“Black fenrir-san, I have a small proposal for you . ”

The black fenrir seemed glad her request had been accepted, but she soon became tense again and waited in silence for me to continue:

“Do you want to continue living with us like this? Martha said it was fine if you didn’t mind it!”

The black fenrir seemed a bit troubled .

“Of course, it won’t be like you are freeloading off us or something . We’ll give you a job . Please become Amelia’s guard . ”

“Is it enough with that? I’m not nearly as strong as Russel-sama . ”

“That doesn’t matter . You can learn whatever you feel you are lacking from him . Amelia likes you just as much . If you want to somehow return the favor, protect her! How about that?”

“You have a point there . I don’t really have a reason to refuse either . ”

“Then it’s fine, right? So… . ”

“Yeah! If you are fine with it, can you live with us here?”

After I asked again, she stood upright and answered:

“I will protect you, even if it costs me my life . I don’t want to feel like I was nothing but a stranger here . And Russel-sama, Martha-san, please train me to be as strong as you two, so I can protect Amelia . ”

“Then it’s decided . ”


“Yeah! I’ll be counting on you from now on, Fenrir-san! We are family now!”

We all happily accepted her, me, Russel and Martha from above .

In high spirits, Martha, Russel and I happily accepted her .

AN:

Hello, kurumi here .

Thank you, dear reader, for accompanying me until now!

From this chapter onwards, I will update the story at one chapter per day .

I also think I will increase the character count to 2k, so there will be around the same amount of content in one chapter as there used to be in two .

(I’m sorry, this chapter is still only 1k characters long . My deepest apologies . )

If you find any typos, funky parts, or just some feedback, please point it all out, thanks .
