Chapter 161: Wolf Trail

"She isn't," Daisy replied firmly.

"I don't know what the two you are talking about, but do you accept my offer, sir?" The ghost asked Lawrend.

"Wait, I'm even surprised at myself that I didn't get scared. It's my first time seeing a ghost, you know?" Lawrend said to her.

"So you don't want to?" The ghost asked him with a frown.

"Rather, I want to ask you where you came from," he replied to her.

"Where? From what I can remember. I have always been in this place. I met many skeletons that were loyal to the Heaven Empress, so I thought that should also be my goal," The ghost replied.

"Interesting. So how did you find me? I mean, this Heavenly Empress that's in my pocket," Lawrend asked her.

"The area around where you found the Heavenly Empress was unapproachable by us which is why we approached you the moment we detected her soul aura moving farther away," she explained to him.

"Woah. This place must have a lot of history," he exclaimed in amazement.

"So, what is your choice? I will pass on if you say no. Though, something inside me is saying that I shouldn't do it," she asked him solemnly.

"Okay. I accept your allegiance."

Lawrend nodded his head.

"Thank you. I feel a sense of purpose hearing your reply."

She smiled at him beautifully.

"Now, please, choose an object to contain my soul in. Anything would do," she said to him.

"Object, huh…"

Lawrend held his chin in thought.

"Will a staff do?" Lawrend asked her.

"Yes," she nodded her head.

"Be careful, Lawrend. She might be malicious," Daisy warned him.

"Okay, fine. Here," Lawrend pulled out the leather pouch from his pocket, "use this instead," he said to her.

"Weren't you talking about a staff just now…" The ghost said to him. She stared at him in disappointment. She had her hopes up about it.

"A-Ah… F-For now, stay in this leather pouch," Lawrend said to her with a forced smile on his face.

"Okay…" she nodded her head, downcast.

She touched the leather pouch, and her body was sucked into it.

Suddenly, the fog surrounding Lawrend disappeared. He looked towards the other shelters.

"Nuon, are you okay?" Lawrend called out to him and walked towards his shelter.

"Hmm? Lawrend, what is it?"

Nuon walked out of his shelter. He was rubbing his eyes groggily.

"Oh, did anything happen last night?" Lawrend asked him.

"Nothing. Logan behaved himself. He probably realized his mistakes already," he replied to Lawrend and shook his head.

Lawrend thought that he would have noticed the weird fog. It was very surprising to him that he didn't.

"Okay."

Lawrend nodded his head. He then headed towards Joseph's shelter.

"Instructor Joseph, did you notice the fog earlier?" Lawrend asked him from the outside.

"What fog?" Joseph stood out of his shelter. He looked at Lawrend in confusion.

"You didn't notice it? Even when you looked outside?" he asked in puzzlement.

"No, why?" Joseph asked in confusion.

"Forget about it then."

Lawrend shook his head. That could only mean that it only affected him, but that's too weird. One of them should have woken up and looked outside and saw the fog.

"Anyways, I'll accompany the three of you. Hunt food together," Joseph said to him.

"Okay," he nodded his head.

And so, Joseph accompanied Lawrend, Nuon, and Logan. They looked left and right around the forest, searching for an animal to hunt.

Logan was awfully silent throughout the way. He merely followed them along. He never said anything towards Lawrend. He just followed his orders.

"There!"

Nuon pointed towards a small wolf peeking from the bushes.

"Be careful! It could be lost from its pack," Lawrend warned Nuon. Wolves usually travel in packs. It's even more so for a little wolf.

"Should we catch it?" Nuon asked Lawrend.

"No, it'd be too young," Lawrend shook his head.

"Okay. Let's find something else," Nuon replied.

A few minutes of walking later, they found a trail.

"It's a wolf trail," Lawrend said to them. He could recognize it easily because it looks similar to a dog paw print.

"The pack must be near," Nuon said to him.

"Are we following it?"

It was Logan who asked. There was uncertainty on his face.

"Yes. We have an Earth Mage, a Light Mage, and a Lightning Mage. One for defense, one for healing, and one for the offense. What do we have to fear?" Lawrend explained and asked Logan.

"..."

Logan was taken aback by Lawrend's words. He expected him to help? Doesn't he know that he wants to rip his face apart?

Logan was confused.

"What? This is a team special mission, remember? I thought you wanted to impress that girl?"

Lawrend smirked at him.

"Tch. You got me. I'll defend you until we finish this special mission," Logan said to him with gritted teeth. He doesn't want to help Lawrend one bit, but he's now forced to.

"That's great to hear."

Lawrend smiled.

They then followed the wolf trails carefully. Lawrend counted them, and there are at least 5 wolves.

A few minutes later, they followed the wolf trail back to their camp.

Wolves were staring at the wyvern in the camp warily. Meanwhile, the wyvern stared at them imposingly. Their little wolf pup was rubbing its body on one of its legs.

"How convenient," Lawrend smirked.

"Let's go! Erect a barrier in front of me every time I stop. Then you can cast anything you want to stall them. Make sure I'm not in the way.

"Nuon, I'll rely on you for healing. Keep yourself safe," Lawrend gave them orders.

"Don't worry, I know some offensive light magic spells."

Nuon nodded his head.

"Logan! I need your reply," Lawrend shouted to Logan.

"Y-Yes. Remember, I'm not doing this for you!" Logan replied in a fluster. No matter what, he won't admit that he's helping Lawrend.

"Your participation is enough," Lawrend nodded his head solemnly.

"O' great Amber, be my electron and kill my enemies, turn to sprite and overwhelm, Lightning Sprite!" Lawrend chanted with his palm opened towards the pack of five Forest Wolves.
