- I'm Luna
- Oh, and I'm cori, nice to meet you
Smiling softly, Luna replied:
- Nice to meet you, it's been a long time since I've seen anyone else in this forest! Where are you from?
- I'm a resident of Eternal, the kingdom beyond the wall
- Oh, you're so good that you can climb over that towering wall?
- Haha! No, I crawled through the crack in there
Seeming surprised, Luna continued:
- I've never seen that crack before, did it just appear?
- yes, it was covered by a tall tree, yesterday the tree fell and I got here
- Oh, there is indeed a tree growing right at the corner of that wall, it must have fallen down last night- Luna said while looking at the direction Cori had just walked over
- Oh, by the way Luna, do you live here alone? Where are your parents?
- I have lived here alone since I was little, I don't know who my father is, and I only saw my mother once when I was born
- Oh, so you can still live here alone without your parents?
- That's right, this is my home!
Cori was surprised to know that Luna could live independently in the wilderness without anyone's help, completely different from him, a person who didn't know how to cook or do laundry. Suddenly feeling so useless
Looking down at the watch on his hand, Cori realized something extremely terrible: it was now 3am and if he didn't come home in 3 hours, his mother would wake up and find him gone all night!! What happened next was something Cori didn't dare to think about anymore.
Tell Luna about this, luckily Luna had lived here for a long time so she knew this forest better than anyone. Throwing the wet backpack over her shoulder, Cori quickly followed Luna along the trail that he had never seen before. Crossing the forest with wet clothes, Cori suddenly heard strange noises like the sound of horses galloping from afar. Looking up at Luna, she had stopped completely, her eyes fixed on the depths of the forest.
And then a wolf as big as his kitchen rushed out of the bushes and let out a loud roar. It had gray fur (or white but because of the darkness it turned gray), its eyes were red like blood, giving off a terrifying and deadly look.

-AAAAAAAAAAAA
-Cori! Stop, the more you scream, the more ferocious it will be!- Luna shouted
It was exactly as Luna had said, his scream had made it fly over Luna's head and fly towards it like an arrow. At this moment, it didn't know what to do other than to raise the stick in its hand towards the wolf in despair.
Then at this moment, a scene appeared before his eyes that was even more unbelievable than a 3m tall wolf: Luna was standing behind the wolf, suddenly shining as if a light was shining on it. She waved her hand towards the wolf, causing it to suddenly lift up and then threw it aside like a bag of trash:
- Cori!, run towards the crack, it's not far. I can handle it here
- Luna you…..
- HURRY UP
- But I can't..
- RUN!!!
Although he had just come into contact with Luna, her words really scared him. He had no choice but to leave Luna behind to restrain the wolf that was still pouncing at him but failed.
Following the path a bit further, the fallen tree and the crack on the wall appeared before his eyes. Looking down at the anti-shock clock that Uncle Elden had given him, he saw that it was already 6:30 AM
- Oh no! I hope Mom hasn't woken up
Timping through the yard and entering the house, Cori saw that the back door was locked even though he hadn't locked it when he left, so he had to sneak in through the front door… As he was walking to the foot of the stairs, he suddenly heard an affectionate voice coming from behind him:
- Oh my ~ Looks like someone just snuck out to play ALL NIGHT, right?
Turning around, she stammered:
- Oh mom... I... I..
- WHO APOLOGIZED YOU TO HIDE FROM MOM TO GO OUT AND PLAY UNTIL THIS HOUR!?
- I'm sorry mom, I won't dare do that again next time..
- Mom will punish you with a month of grounding and not letting you go out! Just stay home and study, do you hear?
- Yes, ma'am~
Turning around and walking straight into the kitchen, Cori stood there sweating:
- Why don't you hurry up and change your clothes and eat breakfast? Why are your clothes so wet? Be careful not to catch a cold now
Mom's words woke Cori from his fear and he quickly climbed up to his room to change his clothes and come down to eat breakfast. He still had a class at school this morning
