Mengdie woke up groggily, and when she opened her eyes again, the sun was already setting, leaving only its golden glow lazily scattered on the path.

"Umm... What time is it now?"

Nia, who had been guarding all day, was already asleep on the edge of the bed, still holding onto Mengdie's tail.

Mengdie reached out to untangle Nia's fingers. However, her tail being held meant she couldn't muster any strength. Despite her efforts and reddening face, she couldn't free her tail from Nia's "clutches."

Sighing and starting to cry again, Mengdie felt sorry for herself over such a trivial matter.

The door opened, and Edward and Xiu entered one after the other. Seeing Mengdie in tears, with flushed cheeks, lying on the bed, and her tail caught in Nia's hand, they were momentarily stunned.

Edward and Xiu's expressions looked dangerous to Mengdie, who was now utterly defenseless. She feared the worst.

"Let... let me go!"

Mengdie struggled to free her tail from Nia, who had just woken up. Once she managed to release her tail, she jumped to the floor.

"You're still healing quickly, just like before!" Xiu remarked with a chuckle, attempting to lighten the mood. Edward, following Xiu's lead, also made some incoherent comments and nodded continuously.

Mengdie rubbed her tail cautiously and, feeling her strength returning, finally let go and wagged her tail.

"What time is it now?"

Edward replied, "It's already evening, Mengdie. You've been asleep for a day..."

Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site.

Mengdie nodded, feeling a bit disoriented, probably due to the consecutive injuries or constant sleeping.

Looking outside, she noticed the sun was almost setting and took a deep breath, trying to adjust to her body.

"By the way, the white wolf and its pack that I fought, they've left, right? I broke several of its ribs and caused internal bleeding. I hope it doesn't die from that. It'll probably need to hide and heal for the next ten days or half a month."

Mengdie's tail swayed leisurely, signaling complete relaxation.

Edward and Xiu exchanged glances, their eyes flickering with concern. Mengdie, noticing their looks, became curious.

"Hey, what's wrong? Did I say something incorrect?"

"Hehe... Well..." Xiu scratched his face, opened the door, and said, "Why don't you come out and see for yourself, Miss Mengdie?"

With full of questions, Mengdie followed Xiu out of the cottage. Her gaze quickly swept across the village and then fixated on a scene in the northwest direction, utterly shocked...

The wolves haven't left?!

The white wolf, surrounded by the grey wolves, was sleeping. Hearing Mengdie's footsteps, its white ears perked up instantly! The next moment, its red pupils opened, and the robust white beast stood up energetically! Mengdie noticed that the skin depressed by her punch a few hours ago had bulged back out, and its previously shattered right front paw was firmly placed on the ground. It seemed like the white wolf had also healed in just a few hours of sleep!

"Oh! Little girl, you're awake?" Father Cotton, who had been treating injured villagers, came over after seeing Mengdie wake up. Noticing Mengdie's stunned look at the white wolf, he said, "Surprised, aren't you?"

Mengdie nodded silently, still gazing at the distant white wolf. The wolf also gazed back at her with dignity. After a while, Mengdie's surprised expression vanished, replaced by a smile.

"Hey, hey, Miss Mengdie, where are you going?" Xiu exclaimed as Mengdie suddenly walked towards the wolves again. Learning from the morning's experience, he quickly blocked her path.

Mengdie smiled amiably, gently pushing Xiu aside.

"It's okay, don't worry. There won't be a fight this time."

"What do you mean no fight? Mengdie! I'm coming with you!" Edward also ran over, bandaged all over, indicating that his injuries from the fight with the white wolf hadn't yet healed.

Mengdie appreciated Edward's kindness. Since he insisted, she reluctantly agreed. After all, this wasn't a battle, so as long as he didn't act rashly, it should be fine.

Surrounded by the grey wolves, the white wolf heard Mengdie's footsteps, immediately perked up its ears, and energetically stood up! Mengdie was startled to find that the wolf had seemingly healed from the injuries she inflicted a few hours ago.

"Oh! Young lady, are you awake?" Father Cotton approached Mengdie after attending to the injured villagers. Seeing her astonished look at the white wolf, he commented, "Surprised, aren't you?"
