Short filmTranscript
00:03On the day I was born, a blood moon hung in the sky, and every blade of grass withered, moonlight
00:07hardened into tangible rays, and stuck my face, leaving a crescent-shaped birthmark behind.
00:12The old priest of the wolf clan said I carried the once-in-a-thousand-years white wolf bloodline, born
00:16gentle and kind.
00:17But my father, the Alpha, despised me for being weak and indecisive.
00:21He wished he could whip me day and night just to rouse some bloodlust in me.
00:25But no matter what he did, I could never learn cruelty.
00:27I could never learn to love killing.
00:28Lyra, the human girl they adopted, stole everything that should have been mine as Alpha hair with a savage wolf
00:33spirit forged by black magic.
00:35At the annual hunt, father dragged a young deer to me, still wailing and begging for mercy.
00:39He ordered me to skin it alive, to torment it until it died.
00:43But I did not want to torture the fawn.
00:45I only wanted to end it suffering quickly.
00:47Lyra rushed forward without hesitation.
00:49She tore the fawn apart piece by piece, reveling in its screams.
00:52When the Alpha saw that, he ripped the bone pendant that marked me as Alpha heel from my neck and
00:57placed it around Lyra's.
00:59Then he glared at me viciously.
01:01You can't even feel the pleasure of tormenting prey!
01:02Look at Lyra, so violent, so full of blood.
01:05She is the only one who carries the true nature of our wolf clan.
01:09During the clan's death mat trial, I refused to strike my companions down.
01:12I yielded again and again, never daring to aim for a vital point.
01:15Lyra went straight for the kill.
01:16Without the slightest mercy, she snapped another wolf's neck.
01:19My mother, the Luna.
01:20Instead, she gently wiped the blood from Lyra's face and praised her.
01:23That's my good girl.
01:24Only someone this ruthless can lead the wolf clan to glory.
01:27Then she turned and slapped me hard across the face, disgust filling her eyes.
01:31How did I ever give birth to a useless thing like you?
01:33I stood in a dark corner and watched Lyra bask in my parents' love, my heart growing colder and colder.
01:38They did not know Lyra was an infiltrator sent by the Black Witches, the sworn enemies of the wolf clan.
01:43But I never imagined that to force me into becoming a savage wolf, my parents would accept Lyra's suggestion and
01:48throw me into the Blood Moon Arena, where exiled mad wolves were kept.
01:51If you can't sharpen yourself in there and become as fierce as Lyra, then die inside.
01:56Don't come back out and disgrace her.
01:58The alphas voice echoed the ambience, the lock to fall in the Iron Gate.
02:01The next instant, a dozen mad wolves in heat slowly closed in, their crimson eyes fixed on me.
02:06Thick foul saliva dripped from their fangs onto the muddy ground, but a massive black wolf had already launched.
02:10It pinned me hard against the rough gravel floor.
02:14My thin white dress was brutally shredded by its claws.
02:17My bare, pale skin was exposed to the air, only to be pinned down by several male wolves in the
02:21next instant.
02:22Hot, wet tongues dragged roughly over my trembling neck and clover bone.
02:25Their heavy, powerful paws crushed my smash-shaking legs apart.
02:28They violated the most vulnerable part of me again and again.
02:32Pain wracked my entire body, humiliating tears smeared across my face.
02:35In despair, I looked through the iron bars and begged my mother, the luna of the wolf clan, to save
02:39me.
02:39But you're being humiliated by a pack of animals and deceased, and you still don't dare bite their throats out
02:44and fight back.
02:45Alara, you are the shame of the wolf clan.
02:47The alpha and luna turned away without looking back, but they never imagined that turn would be our final farewell.
02:53The mad wolves kept tearing into me.
02:55I screamed until my voice went hoarse, but the alpha and luna never once turned around.
03:00In the midst of the agony, the light of the white wolf within me began to break free of its
03:05restraints.
03:05I knew my white wolf bloodline was finally awakening.
03:09The ancient books said this holy light was the hope that would restore the wolf clan.
03:13But at that moment, the silver blade was driven hard toward my chest.
03:18I turned back in pain.
03:19The one holding the knife was Lyra.
03:21Her face twisted in a vicious grin.
03:22Alara, die!
03:24The title of alpha heir is mine now!
03:25I breathed my last.
03:27The next moment, a translucent version of me peeled off from my bruised corpse and floated straight into the air.
03:32I looked down at my ruined body lying in a pool of blood, my eyes dull and gray like stones
03:36that had lost their shine.
03:37Only then did I understand.
03:38I was dead.
03:40Just like my wolf life, starved of love.
03:42But even after I died, no one cared about me.
03:44Not even the parents who had given me life and raised me.
03:47For three whole days, my corpse lay there, ignored.
03:49As I watched it rot.
03:51As even rats came to drink blood from my once smooth skin.
03:54Sadness overwhelmed me.
03:55Please bury me.
03:57I don't want to see myself decay.
03:58My body was like my life, riddled with wounds, reeking and unbearable to look at.
04:03A guard passed by the iron bars and glanced at me lying mocheless on the ground.
04:06I let out a long breath of relief.
04:08At last, someone had found my corpse.
04:10Please, hurry and take care of it.
04:12But the guard only spit it contemptily.
04:14This lowborn wolf actually stopped begging.
04:16Looks like she grew a little backbone.
04:17Then he strode away.
04:18My soul floated in the air.
04:20My tears fell, but they could not moisten my dried out corpse.
04:24Everyone wanted me to become a savage wolf in the arena.
04:27They wanted me to learn to fight back.
04:29But I was already dead.
04:31How was I supposed to fight?
04:33On the morning of the seventh day, the overwhelming stench of death finally caught the guard's attention.
04:37Hey, stop lying there.
04:38Get up and work.
04:38The guard wrinkled his nose in disgust and jed my thigh hard with his spear.
04:41The feeling of the spearhead sinking into stiff flesh made his face change.
04:44He trembled as he reached for my nose.
04:46The next second, he collapsed to the ground.
04:47Alpha above!
04:48The alpha here!
04:49She's dead!
04:49I floated in the air and watched his terrified expression.
04:52Instinctively, I wanted to apologize.
04:54I'm sorry.
04:55Even in death, I died in such an unsettling way that I frightened you.
04:58I was always causing trouble for others.
04:59When I was alive and even after I died,
05:01I even wondered whether it was because I smelled so bad that the arena had become so foul.
05:04When news of my death spread, the black witch rushed over.
05:07The moment she saw the silver blade in my chest, her pupils shrank.
05:11Lyra actually killed her?
05:12Panic flashed through her eyes, but it was swiftly replaced by malice.
05:15No.
05:16If the alpha finds out Lyra killed the alpha here, both Lyra and I will be punished.
05:20I have it!
05:20As long as she wears this, she'll become an undead puppet who obeys absolutely.
05:25However savage the wolf king wants his daughter to be, that's how savage she'll become.
05:28But she's already dead!
05:30How could the alpha's sense of smell fail to catch the scent of a corpse?
05:34The alpha and Luna threw their own flesh and blood into the arena for so long without even glancing at
05:39her.
05:39They're so heartless they've probably forgotten what their own daughter smells like.
05:42My heart went cold, because I knew the black witch was right.
05:45The alpha and Luna had never cared about me.
05:47They had even thought my scent was especially unpleasant.
05:49The black witch put the collar on me.
05:51My corpse returned to its original appearance, even more vibrant than it had been when I was alive.
05:56The next moment, the black witch controlled my corpse and made it walk into the forbidden forest.
06:01I watched helplessly as my own hand pierced a black bear's throat like an iron hook.
06:05Blood splashed across my face.
06:08Chunks of flesh hung between my fingers.
06:10No, don't do this!
06:12I begged weakly in my heart.
06:13I don't want to be controlled.
06:15This is too cruel.
06:16Looking at the filth and blood covering me, I felt so dirty, so disgusting.
06:20I had already been a despised, lowly wolf.
06:22Now I had become a monster with blood on my hands.
06:25Someone as filthy as me would surely be rejected even by Satan in hell.
06:28I watched my own corpse carry the black bear's head back to the royal hall.
06:33The alpha saw my corpse bring back the bloody head, and he rose to his feet in disbelief.
06:40Are you Alara?
06:41At the sound of the alpha's voice, my soul trembled violently in the air.
06:46Three months.
06:47It had been so long since I had seen my father.
06:49Without thinking, I flew towards him and opened my empty arms, wanting to embrace his tall, powerful body.
06:55Dad, it's me!
06:56I'm a lot-
06:57I wanted to tell him the arena had been so dark and cold, that the bites of those mad wolves
07:02had hurt so much.
07:04I wanted to tell him I had bled so badly when Lyra stabbed me to death.
07:09But in that moment, there was no hatred in my mind.
07:12What I wanted most, for father to hold me tightly in his arms the way he held Lyra, to stroke
07:17my head.
07:18Of course.
07:19How could I have forgotten?
07:21I was already dead.
07:23I did not even have a warm body anymore.
07:25While I was grieving in silence, my controlled corpse spoke in the center of the hall.
07:31Alpha, of course I'm Alara.
07:33My corpse threw the black bear's head heavily at father's feet.
07:38As the alpha and Luna wished, the desperation of the arena finally tore the cowardries from my bones.
07:44I understand the beauty of slaughter now.
07:47The alpha's eyes filled with feverish pride.
07:50Excellent, Alara!
07:51You've finally become a savage wolf!
07:54The alpha crossed the hall in a few strides, and came to stand before my corpse.
07:59For the first time in my life, he embraced me affectionately.
08:03Now this is my good daughter.
08:05My soul shrunk back in the air, my nose stinging.
08:08Why was it that I had finally received the embrace I had longed for?
08:12And yet my heart only grew colder.
08:14My corpse sat in the Wolf King's bone palicase, my fingers still packed with scraps of black bear flesh that
08:18would not wash clean.
08:19The collar controlled my body, keeping me in a tense posture, as if I were ready to spring and kill
08:23at any moment.
08:24The alpha patted my shoulder, and I suddenly realized something.
08:27It was the first time he had ever looked at me with such expectation.
08:29Ilarra, this is what the bloodline of the Wolf King should look like.
08:33That gentle mercy of yours only brought shame to the wolf clan.
08:35I should have listened to Lyra and thrown you into the arena sooner.
08:38I floated in the air.
08:40My soul curled into a corner, trembling non-stop.
08:42But my corpse only gave a hoarse groan.
08:49Those are the words a savage wolf should say.
08:53The palicane stopped at the entrance to the royal hall.
08:55The Luna was personally dressing Lyra in a magnificent velvet gown.
08:58When she saw me get down covered in blood, Ilarra, she froze.
09:01From now on, call her savage wolf Ilarra.
09:03The alpha announced proudly.
09:05A trace of appreciation appeared in the Luna's eyes.
09:07Lyra has just awakened her noble wolf spirit, and we're about to hold a banquet.
09:10Your murderous look suits the occasion.
09:12Don't put on that funeral face you used to wear and ruin the dignity of the wolf clan.
09:14Before the Luna finished speaking, my corpse seized the white goats pulling the paluit and brutally pierced their throats.
09:21It caught their blood in a goblet and handed it to the Luna.
09:25Blood for Lyra's awakening.
09:27The Luna froze for a moment.
09:28She probably had not expected me to become so bloodthirsty.
09:31Then she smiled, took the goblet, and drank it dry.
09:34She said to the alpha,
09:35It seems that place really can turn a sheep into a wolf.
09:38Ilarra's timid, shrinking manner used to make me sick.
09:40Like this, she might at least become Lyra's second-in-command.
09:43Father lit his pipe and looked at me.
09:44His gaze deep.
09:45I forgot to tell you.
09:47From now on, Lyra will be the wolf clan's first female alpha.
09:50And you will be second-in-command, there to support her.
09:53I saw Lyra, dressed in her gorgeous gown, run over with a bright smile and take my blood-sloped hand.
09:57What's second-in-command?
09:59We're sisters.
10:00It's just that rough work like killing isn't something a delicate younger sister can handle.
10:03I'll have to trouble you with it from now on, big sister.
10:05I watched the flash of venom in Lyra's smile, lowered my head, and let my soul weep silently in the
10:10dark.
10:11Dad, Mom, have you forgotten?
10:13I am your biological daughter.
10:14I am the heir to the throne.
10:16Dad, Mom, do you know?
10:18The Lyra you adore is the one who killed me with her own hands.
10:21At the banquet, Lyra sat at the head of the long table like a pure princess.
10:25My sister has returned from training.
10:26How impressive.
10:27As she spoke, she speared a piece of sacred deer heart with a silver fork.
10:30Come, let your little sister reward you properly.
10:33My soul could not stop trembling as I looked at the deer heart.
10:36That was the creature the white wolf bloodline had once sworn to protect for life.
10:39It was also the food I had forbidden myself from touching when I was alive.
10:42Just smelling sacred deer made my soul shudder, let alone swallowing the flesh and blood that symbolized the train.
10:46Lyra knew the taboo of my white wolf bloodline, but she deliberately tossed the bloody deer heart onto my face.
10:51You're so fierce now, big sister.
10:53Surely you won't mind swallowing this heart, right?
10:55After all, you even dared to eat a black bear's eyes raw.
10:57The Luna looked at Lyra approvingly.
10:59Lyra is right.
11:00Lyra, prove to Mommy that you have completely abandoned that false mercy.
11:04She was full of expectation, waiting for me to show my wolf nature, yet she had forgotten the kindness I
11:08had shown while alive.
11:09To stop the deer clan and the wolf clan from going to war, I had melt in the snow for
11:11three days and three nights, moving the deer clan with my sincerity.
11:14In the end, the two clans gave up the war, and countless lives were saved.
11:17But the Luna thought my kneeling had humiliated the wolf clan.
11:20So she hung me from a cliff for three days and three nights.
11:23I looked at the piece of meat on the plate, the symbol of my shattered faith, and my soul wailed
11:27in despair.
11:28No, don't make me eat it.
11:29Please.
11:30But my corpse did not hesitate.
11:32It grabbed the raw meat, tore into it, and swallowed.
11:35Blood dripped from the corner of my mouth onto the white tablecloth shucking against the cloth.
11:39Delicious, delicious.
11:40My corpse answered mechanically.
11:42Lyra's face went pale.
11:44She had known for a long time that I was dead, and the Black Witch had warned her to hide
11:48that fact.
11:49But she never expected me to become this bloodthirsty.
11:51The Alpha was also stunned.
11:53Lyra, you used to vomit at the mere smell of sacred deer, and now you ate it without even blinking.
11:59The Alpha leaned close to my corpse.
12:01Tell me, are you really a Lyra?
12:03The picture one's tall body moved closer to my corpse, his sharp gaze fixed on me.
12:07He slowly reached out, as if trying to sense the white wolf-a-aura inside my body.
12:11Floating in the air, my soul trembled violently.
12:13A faint hope row inside me.
12:14Dad, touch me!
12:15Please realize I'm already dead.
12:16I don't want to be a monster of slaughter anymore.
12:18I want to rest in the earth.
12:19Just as the Alpha's fingers were about to brush my cold, rigid cheek.
12:23Lyra realized she could not allow him to discover the truth of my death.
12:26It hurts!
12:27My stomach hurts!
12:30Sister, did you poison my food?
12:31Mother Luna's expression changed instantly.
12:33With a sharp slap, she struck me hard across the face.
12:36How dare you poison the female Alpha?
12:38What punishment do you deserve?
12:39I froze in the air.
12:40Mom, do you trust Lyra that much?
12:42My corpse held its head at the crooked angle from the slap and stiffly turned.
12:45Its dead gray eyes stared coldly at Lyra on the ground.
12:47Then, with a metallic ring, my corpse yanked a pure silver dinner knife from the table,
12:51grabbed Lyra by the hair, and pressed the blade against her belly.
12:53Lyra, savage wolves don't use poison.
12:56If I wanted to kill her, I would have bitten her throat out already.
12:59Since she says there's poison in her stomach,
13:01why don't I cut her open now and see what's inside?
13:03With that, the corpse's hand drove the knife down.
13:05The Luna screamed in terror.
13:07Even the Alpha's eyes widened in shock.
13:09Lyra was nearly scared out of her mind.
13:11It doesn't hurt anymore.
13:12It doesn't hurt.
13:13Maybe I just ate something bad.
13:15It has nothing to do with my sister.
13:16The Luna let out a frightened breath and pulled Lyra behind her protectively.
13:19You child.
13:20You scared mommy to death.
13:21The Alpha hurried over as well.
13:22He snatched the knife from my corpse's hand.
13:24His eyes complicated and horrified.
13:25Elara, given how aggressive you are now,
13:27you are forbidden from touching anything that belongs to Lyra from now on.
13:29After that, they quickly surrounded Lyra, fussing over her.
13:32Their eyes filled with concern.
13:33No one apologized to me.
13:34Not a single person said,
13:36Elara, we misunderstood you.
13:37I floated in the air and thought bitterly.
13:39It's alright.
13:40This must be the price of learning to be fierce.
13:42In any case, I was already dead.
13:44The dead did not need to be loved.
13:47Late that night, candlelight flickered in the royal hall.
13:49The Luna reined back in her chair, exhausted, rubbing her temples.
13:52How did Elara become like this?
13:54When she held that knife and tried to cut Lyra open today, the look in her eyes.
13:57She was like a monster without any feelings.
13:59She used to be cowardly, but at least she still had us in her eyes.
14:02Yes, I only wanted her to learn fierceness.
14:05I never meant to force her into a mad beast who recognizes no family.
14:08I floated beside them, my heart aching.
14:10You wanted me to be obedient, so I gave everything to my little sister.
14:13You wanted me to be savage, so I lost my life and became a savage wolf.
14:16But even after I died, you still weren't satisfied.
14:18What exactly do I have to do for you to love me even a little?
14:20At that moment, the highly respected High Prast entered with his bone staff.
14:25He let out a long sigh.
14:27Alpha.
14:28Luna.
14:29You have been terribly foolish.
14:31High Priest, what do you mean?
14:33Elara carries the White Wolf bloodline, something that appears once in a thousand years.
14:37She possesses divine power that can purify madness.
14:40That is why she could never learn cruelty.
14:41But you kept forcing her to become savage.
14:43You were wearing away her divine power.
14:47Enough.
14:47In that case, we won't force her anymore.
14:49Let her become the kind of Lera she used to be.
14:51At those words, my soul trembled in the air.
14:54You're finally willing to accept my kindness.
14:56But I'm sorry.
14:57I'm already dead.
14:58I can never be your daughter again.
15:00Perhaps because guilt had begun to stir in him,
15:02the Alpha came to my stone hut after controlling the territory.
15:05He pushed open the door to see whether I had fallen asleep,
15:07only to find me sitting at the edge of the cold stone bed completely motionless.
15:10My back was perfect resting on my knees,
15:12my eyes staring forward like a marionette whose strings had been paused.
15:15Elara?
15:16He called tentatively, but my corpse did not respond at all.
15:19Night.
15:20The Black Witch's collar entered standby mode.
15:22What kind of posture is this?
15:23Father scrounged and walked though, pushing my shoulder.
15:26With that push, my body fell straight backward and slammed onto the stone bed with a thun.
15:30The Alpha's expression changed at once.
15:32No!
15:33Why do you smell so foul?
15:34Elara, what's wrong with you?
15:36But my corpse gave no response.
15:37Something seemed to occur to him.
15:39His face turned white as paper.
15:41Trembling, he reached out and placed his hand beneath my nose.
15:44The next second, he sucked in a sharp breath,
15:47his pupils shaking violently.
15:49Elara, are you dead?
15:53Dead?
15:54Dead?
15:55The Alpha snatched his hand back,
15:56then began shaking my rigid shoulders like a madman
15:58trying to overturn that horrifying guess.
16:00No!
16:01Impossible, Elara!
16:02Stop pretending!
16:02You're just in a deep coma, aren't you?
16:04Wake up!
16:04My corpse was as hard as a cold stone.
16:06My lifeless head tilted grotexically to one side.
16:08By the moonlight, he finally saw my gray skin clearly.
16:10I floated in the air and watched the terror and panic on his face.
16:14Shrinking back, I hugged my own arms.
16:15I cried as I retreated, filled with shame and grievance.
16:17Dad, don't touch me anymore.
16:19Sokoloft, I'm so ugly now.
16:20Please don't look.
16:21I'm afraid that once you see me clearly, you'll hate me even more.
16:23But I was already dead.
16:24He could not hear the words of my soul.
16:26Someone, call the high priest!
16:27Bring the high priest to me now!
16:29The Luna and Lyra rushed over at the sound.
16:31The moment Lyra entered and saw the Alpha trying to pull aside the clothing at the back
16:34of my neck to inspect it, her face went deathly pale.
16:36The undead collar hidden at the nape of my neck was giving off an eerie glow.
16:39Lyra knew very well that she could not allow the black magic to be exposed.
16:43Dad!
16:43Lyra rushed over in panic and clung tightly to the Alpha's arm, sobbing.
16:47Maybe my sister is just exhausted after awakening her savage nature.
16:50Don't touch her recklessly!
16:52You'll hurt her!
16:52The Alpha's eyes were bloodshot.
16:54Impossible!
16:54She doesn't even have body heat!
16:55Just then, the high priest hurried in with his bone staff.
16:58At a glance, he saw the collar at the back of my neck, flickering with black energy, and
17:01his old eyes flew wide.
17:02He strode forward and extended one withered finger.
17:03The moment he touched the collar, sizzle.
17:05His hand smoked as if it had been burned by raging fire.
17:08Acrid black poured from it, and the stench of scorched flesh spread through the room.
17:11The high priest screamed and staggered back several steps, clutching his blacked finger.
17:14Alpha, she is not unconscious.
17:16She has been dead for months!
17:19What nonsense are you spouting?
17:21Grabbed the high priest by the collar.
17:24This afternoon, she pinned Lyra down and even tried to kill her.
17:28How could an Alara this savage have been dead for months?
17:31The Luna threw herself onto the stone bed like a madwoman and hugged my stiff body tightly.
17:35Alara, my good daughter, you're not dead, are you?
17:38You're only angry with mummy, aren't you?
17:40Trembling, she pressed her ear desperately against my chest, trying with all her strength to hear even the faintest heartbeat.
17:45But there was only dead silence, not even the sound of blood flowing.
17:49I floated in the air and watched her hold my corpse close, my tears falling like a broken dam.
17:55Mom, you're finally willing to hold me.
17:57I reached out with my translunan arms, wanting to hug her back.
18:00I waited 18 whole years for this embrace, but my heart stopped beating.
18:04Seeing the Alpha and Luma like this, hearing no response from me, the Luna's face turned paler and paler.
18:09No! No! Come back!
18:11Seeing the Alpha and Luma like this, Lyra's eyes flashed with panic.
18:15She suddenly clamped a hand over her nose and pointed at my corpse, screaming.
18:18Oh my god! Mom! My sister's body seems to have a... rotten smell!
18:23The moment she said it, it was as if some black magic with sister had shattered.
18:27The overwhelming stench of death, which the collar had forcibly concealed,
18:31instantly filled every corner, mixed with the must of the underground chamber and the smell of dried black blood.
18:37It was the most nauseating reek of flesh that had been dead for months.
18:41The Luna froze completely.
18:42Slowly, she lowered her head and saw her hands covered in corpse spots and black blood that had seeped from
18:47my body.
18:48The Alpha drove away the stench of decay and looked at my corpse in anguish.
18:53At last, realization struck him.
18:56The collar, this evil undead thing controlled my daughter.
19:00High Priest, remove it now! My daughter can still be saved!
19:03Enduring the terrible pain of his burned finger,
19:05the High Priest raised his bone staff and began chanting the spell to undo the black magic.
19:09But the spell was only halfway complete.
19:10On the stone bed, my eyes instantly turned a dead crimson.
19:13My corpse let out a hoary, vicious laugh and sprang up.
19:15Its dried claws seized the High Priest by the throat.
19:17Let him go, Alara!
19:19The Alpha rushed forward with red eyes.
19:20He pinned down my corpse's limbs, desperately trying to subdue me.
19:23I floated in the air and threw myself at my own corpse in despair.
19:25I tried with all my strength to pull away those hands stained with slaughter,
19:28to stop myself from doing evil, but my soul passed straight through.
19:31But no one could hear my pleading.
19:33My soul and that evil acting body had been completely severed from each other.
19:37All I could feel was the agony of being powerless.
19:39The Alpha was forced into a brutal fight with the dead me.
19:41He refused to hurt me, but my claws tore his shoulder open, staining the stone bed with blood.
19:45In the violent struggle, the black magic's disguise around the collar fluckered violently.
19:48The clothing over my chest, which had appeared intact, was torn open by the Alpha during the struggle.
19:52The Alpha froze.
19:52He forgot to fight back, and stared fixically at my heart, his pupils contracting.
19:56There, exposed to his eyes, was a huge gaping wound that pierced clean through me.
19:59The flesh around it had long since blackened and rottened.
20:01It was the fatal wound left by a pure silver blade after it had cruelly destroyed my heart.
20:05A pure silver blade.
20:08The mad wolves in the arena don't use silver weapons.
20:15Someone murdered my daughter.
20:17In the corner, Lyra trembled all over.
20:20She hid her hand deep in her sleeve and quietly crushed a black crystal, sending a message to the Black
20:25Witch.
20:26Go! Bring me the arena guard!
20:29While they waited, the luna knelt beside my corpse and gently stroked the corpse spots on my cold cheek with
20:33trembling fingers.
20:34Her tears fell heavily onto my tie face, washing away a little of the blood.
20:37I crouched before her and tried to respond to her touch, but I could feel nothing but empty wind.
20:41Mom, I'm sorry. I started to stink.
20:43I dirtied the hall.
20:44I curled my empty body up humbly, crying like a child who had done something wrong.
20:49Don't touch me. I'm too ugly.
20:52Please don't hate me.
20:54Soon, the arena guard was dragged into the hall, tied up tight.
20:57The moment he saw my corpse on the ground with the hole through its chest, his legs gave out, and
21:02he dropped heavily to his knees.
21:03Spare me, Alpha! I'll talk! I'll tell you everything!
21:06The guard opened his mouth, just about to reveal the truth of that blood moon knight.
21:10Behind him, Lyra's eyes turned vicious.
21:12In secret, she activated the cruel silencing curse the Black Witch had taught her.
21:16Gurgle.
21:17Before the guard could speak, black blood bubbles suddenly dropped Macri from his throat.
21:20His eyes bulged, as if they were about to burst from their sockets.
21:22He collapsed to the ground, clawing desperately at his own neck until he tore wounds deep enough to show bone.
21:27He was about to be suffocated alive by his own poisoned blood.
21:29You want to silence a witness right under my nose?
21:32The Alpha flew into a rage.
21:33He strode forward and released the pressure of the King of the Earth.
21:35The pure source energy of the wolf clone turned into a gale, forcibly suppressing the black magic rampaging through the
21:40guard's body.
21:41The Alpha grabbed the guard by the collar, his eyes blood-rid as he walked.
21:43Talk! If you dare lie to me, I'll skin you alive right now!
21:46The guard gasped for breath. Black blood sprayed from his mouth as he cried out into spirit.
21:49Alpha! Alana wasn't killed by the mad wolves at all!
21:52The wolves in the arena didn't kill her! Someone walked in and murdered her with a pure silver dagger!
21:56I floated in the air and bitterly closed my eyes.
21:58The truth was, I had wished this truth would stay buried forever.
22:02I was afraid they would learn how shamefully I had died.
22:05Even the truth of my death had to be forced out of someone else.
22:08It made me feel like a pathetic joke.
22:10The Alpha's voice nearly shattered the stone pillars of the royal hall.
22:14The guard raised a trembling finger and pointed desperately toward the crowd.
22:17It was... It was her!
22:20Following his finger, every gaze in the hall fixed instantly on one person.
22:24Lyra.
22:26Why are you all looking at me?
22:29I loved my sister so much!
22:32How could I kill her?
22:34Her tearful disguise was flawless.
22:37When my sister was punished for refusing to kill, I braved the snow to secretly bring her food.
22:41When she was sick, I stayed up all night by her bedside to care for her.
22:44I treated her like my own sister!
22:46How could I possibly hurt her?
22:47As I watched that grief-stricken face, my soul tremble uncontrollably in the air.
22:51Yes.
22:52She had secretly brought me food, but she had mixed black rotgrass into the meat, leaving me in unbearable agony.
22:58She had stayed by my bedside all night, but only to cover my mouth and noses with an icy, soaked
23:03hide, laughing coldly as she watched me suffocate and struggle.
23:07In public, she called me sister with every breath.
23:09In private, she had cursed countless times, asking why a white wolf like me had not died yet.
23:13But at this moment, her tearful disguise was flawless.
23:17That's true.
23:18Lyra and Elra were so close.
23:19She has no reason to hurt her.
23:23Lyra revealed a demonic smile.
23:25Good.
23:26The guard was dead, the leads were cut off, and she thought the truth that she had killed me would
23:30never be exposed.
23:32Just then, the high priest stepped forward quickly with a grave expression.
23:35He dipped his staff into the blood the guard had spat on the floor, and swiftly drew an ancient array
23:39across the stones of the royal hall.
23:41Alpha, do not listen to only one side.
23:44The high priest's voice rang through the hall.
23:46With this blood reversal spell, we can see with our own eyes what happened in the arena.
23:53The high priest's withered hand gripped his bone staff tightly.
23:57Blood raced across the floor, sketching out intricate ruins.
24:01Lyra's face went deathly pale.
24:03She quietly shifted her foot, trying to wipe away the blood marks with the heavy hem of her dress and
24:07destroy the spell.
24:08Clack.
24:08Without lifting his head, the high priest slammed his bone staff down before her toes, making her stumble.
24:13The next second, the arrayer erupted with bloody light.
24:16In midair, the image of that blood moon knight appeared clearly.
24:19In the image, the weak me was dragged into the dark arena by two guards.
24:22The heavy iron gore slammed shut.
24:24Outside the gate were the cold backs of the Alpha and Luna as I beat on the iron bars and
24:28cried out hesitation.
24:29Dad! Mom! Don't leave me here! I'm scared!
24:33Watching this scene, I floated in the hall, covering my eyes desperately as I broke down and sobbed.
24:37Don't watch! Dad! Mom! Please don't watch! Leave me the last bit of dignity!
24:42My greatest fear was that they would see how I had been violated and left to die.
24:46But the image in the array continued to turn.
24:48In the dark corner, more than a dozen huge mad wolves with crimson eyes and Freya from their mouths cornered
24:52the defenseless knee against the wall.
24:54Stop it! Stop the arraying!
24:55The high Alpha saw that scene, shook his head, breathed, his voice trembling.
24:58Alpha, history cannot be stopped.
25:01In the projection, the tragedy erupted in an instant.
25:05The largest black wolf launched and knocked me into the mud, its heavy paws pinning my wrists down.
25:11Rip! My thin white dress was brutally torn apart.
25:14The mad wolves swarmed forward!
25:15Their fangs pierced my skin as they mauled and humiliated me in the most primitive way!
25:20The me in the image had no strength left to struggle.
25:23I could only be trampled by those beasts, murmuring again and again.
25:26Mom, save me, Mom.
25:28Heart-rending scream!
25:29Her eyes rolled back and she fainted stiffly to the floor.
25:33The Alpha's eyes were red.
25:35He dropped to his knees with a thut, and desperately reached for the me in the illusion, but all he
25:40caught was empty light.
25:42I floated weakly beside him, sobbing until I could not speak.
25:45The Alpha knelt on the ground and slammed his head wildly against the hard stone floor, smashing it until blood
25:52streamed down.
25:52Just as the me in the image was barely breathing, and had completely given up resisting, the forensic wolves suddenly
25:57began to whimmer and retreat with their tails tucked.
26:00At the edge of the image, a mysterious figure in a black stepped through the mud and slowly entered the
26:04arena, holding a pure silver dagger.
26:05The Alpha jerked his head up.
26:09That is the murderer who hurt Elora!
26:13The mysterious figure's face was completely hidden beneath a heavy hood.
26:16Black bags spread through the hall.
26:18The interference of black magic made the image in the array twist violently and blur.
26:22The Alpha roared like a madman.
26:24He drew the short lave at his waist open him.
26:25It was the purest Alpha blood gushed out and was breaking through the interference of the black magic.
26:30I watched the blood pour from his wrist and cried in anguish.
26:33Dad, stop bleeding!
26:34I'm not worth wasting your essence blood!
26:36I reached out desperately, trying to cover the wound on his wrist.
26:39But my empty fingers could not stop anything.
26:41They only passed through his flesh.
26:42I was nothing but an unwanted burden.
26:44Even dead, I still made him bleed.
26:46As the essence blood poured in, the light of the array surged with a roar.
26:49Tearing through the black fog, the image finally cleared.
26:52The cloaked figure raised the pure silver bagger high, and a familiar, vicious voice instantly echoed through the hall.
26:57Elora, die!
26:58The title of Alpha Heir is mine now!
27:00The wet sound that drove into my heart and destroyed it.
27:02I know that voice.
27:06Lyra.
27:08Is that your voice?
27:11No!
27:12It wasn't me!
27:14It's a frame-up!
27:15The High Priest used magic to fake my voice!
27:18I never went to the arena!
27:20While she argued frantically, the luna woke up trembling.
27:23Her eyes were hollow as she pointed in despair at the elision in the air.
27:25In the image, after the mysterious figure drove the silver blade into my heart,
27:28the movement was too wide, and the black hood slipped down.
27:30It revealed its pure, lovely face twisted by a meticulous joke in that instant.
27:33The luna looked at that face, her lips trembling violently,
27:35as if her entire world of faith had collapsed.
27:37Lyra, why did you kill Elora?
27:39I looked at the luna's paper-white face, my heart filled with despair.
27:42How I'd all wish they would forever believe I had been killed by wolves.
27:44At least then, they would not have to face the cruel truth that family had slaughtered family.
27:48Lyra stared blankly at her own twisted face in the image and knew she could no longer keep pretending.
27:52Suddenly, she stopped sobbing.
27:54She slowly raised a hand and wiped the tears from her face.
27:56Her pitiful expression turned utterly venomous in an instant.
27:59She gave a cold laugh.
28:00So what if I killed her?
28:02You beast!
28:03I'll kill you!
28:05But just as his claws were about to fall, boom!
28:07Thick black giant hammer smashed Frash Dunley up from beneath the royal hall,
28:11sending him crashing hard into a stone pillar dozens of meters away.
28:14The black witch walked out from the shadows with a shrill cackle and stood in front of Lyra.
28:18Lyra lifted her chin arrogantly and looked down at the vomiting alpha with a cold smile.
28:22I'm not a wolf at all.
28:24I'm the black witch's daughter.
28:25The wolf spirit in me was nothing but an illusion to fool idiots like you.
28:28She turned to the luna on the ground, disgust filling her eyes.
28:32You think I liked calling you mom?
28:34Every time you hugged me, that wolf stink on you made me sick!
28:38Hearing that, my soul trembled violently in the air.
28:41When I was alive, my favorite thing had been the warm scent of the pack on mother.
28:46But mother had given all her love to this traitor who despised them.
28:49The black witch mocked them in contact.
28:51You personally sent the white wolf who could purify black magic to her death.
28:55The wolf clan is vanished today.
28:56Lyra turned her head coldly and pointed directly at my stiff, rotting corpse.
28:59She chanted in a black magic spell.
29:01The next second, my corpse had originally crimson and it flushed black claws.
29:04It charged straight at the alpha and luna.
29:06No! Don't hurt my dad!
29:08Seeing my corpse lunge madly at the alpha, my soul let out a shrill scream.
29:11Without hesitation, I spread my arms and stood firmly in front of the alpha,
29:14trying to block those black claws with my empty body.
29:16But it was useless.
29:17The corpse claws passed straight through my soul and droves let out a bloodthirsty sneer
29:20and hurled the alphas away.
29:21Dad!
29:22I broke down, sobbing.
29:23I watched myself become the one who tried to kill my father.
29:26The agony of my soul and body being torn apart almost drove me insane.
29:29I tried desperately to pull at the corpse's arm, but I grasped empty air again and again.
29:32After doing the alpha side, the corpse had snapped its head around.
29:34My corpse roared, raised at eyes, claws locked the crimson and lunged straight for the luna.
29:38Dodge, mom! Hurry! Dodge! Spare!
29:40But the luna did not move.
29:42She looked at that face charging towards her, the face that belonged to me,
29:45now feral and rotting and tears spilled from her eyes.
29:47Not only did she refuse to step back,
29:48she opened her arms and welcomed those deadly claws without any defense.
29:51Alara, come!
29:52The luna cried as if her heart had been torn out.
29:54Mom deserves to be killed by you! Mom failed you!
29:56I watched claws descend, about to pierce the luna's throat without mercy.
29:59Let her go!
30:00At the critical moment, the alpha let out a wolf howl.
30:02Ignoring the blood pouring from his chest,
30:04he threw himself forward and wrapped his arms around my corpse's violent struggle.
30:07His hands cliked iron around the undead collar at the back of my corpse's neck,
30:10the one exuding poisonous black energy.
30:12The poison of the black magic instantly corroded the alpha's hands.
30:15Flesh burned rapidly in the black smoke, exposing bone.
30:18My soul begged beside him like a mad thing.
30:21My tears almost cried dry.
30:22Dad, let go!
30:24I died long ago!
30:25I'm not worth saving!
30:26But the alpha clenched his teeth, his eyes red enough to bleed.
30:29No matter how mangled his hands became,
30:31he refused to loosen his grip even half an inch.
30:33Give me back!
30:34The alpha let out a shrink roar.
30:35He poured all his life essence to his hands,
30:37focusing the full power of a top alpha into his burning palms.
30:40Crack!
30:40With a clear shark found,
30:41countless tracks appeared in the indestructible unwed collar.
30:43Bang!
30:44The collar shattered completely.
30:45The black magic bindingly vanished in an instant.
30:48And the terrifying crimson finally faded from my corpse's eyes.
30:51Without the black magic forcibly sustaining it,
30:53the natural law of a body that had been dead for months
30:55descended a thousandfold in an instant.
30:57My body collapsed like a heap of mud and rackening and rotting.
31:00No, Ilara!
31:01The luna threw herself forward like a madwoman.
31:02The rotting flesh on my body began to peel away piece by piece,
31:05turning to ash.
31:06With trembling hands,
31:07the luna destrically tried to catch those fallen pieces of flesh
31:09and press them back onto my skeleton.
31:11Even when black blood and foul, rotten slugs smeared across her face,
31:14she did not care.
31:15Ignoring the bone-deep burns on his hands,
31:17the alpha held my broken skeleton tightly in his arms
31:20and cried like a helpless child.
31:22Mom, stop picking it up! Stop!
31:24I looked at the foul pile of rotten flesh in their arms
31:26and sobbed until I could not breathe.
31:28Stop holding me!
31:29I stink!
31:30I don't want you to remember me looking this disgusting!
31:33In their unbearable grief,
31:34my body finally weathered completely in their arms,
31:37turning into a handful of cold ashes.
31:39The hall fell into death.
31:41Silence.
31:42At that moment,
31:42a holy white light slowly lit up in midair.
31:44My soul,
31:45which had been hiding in the darkness and crying all this time,
31:47gradually appeared within the faint light as a transient figure.
31:49The alpha and luna lifted their heads blankly.
31:51My soul had taken form.
31:53They could actually see me.
31:54The luna knelt amid the wreckage,
31:56trembling all over as she crawled towards me.
31:58Alara!
31:59I'm sorry!
32:00Mummy was wrong!
32:01Mummy truly knows she was wrong!
32:02Stay, please!
32:03Mummy will give you everything!
32:05I'll make you the most beloved princess of the wolf clan!
32:07Forgive, Mummy, please!
32:09I looked at her desperate plea,
32:11humbled into the dust,
32:12and large tears fell from my eyes,
32:14dissolving into faint light in the air.
32:16Mom, do you know?
32:17I dreamed that one day,
32:19you would finally be willing to hold me once.
32:21I lowered my head and looked at my empty hands.
32:23But I don't even have a body anymore.
32:25I can't feel your embrace.
32:27All attempts to make amends had already lost the body they were meant to reach.
32:30Because I had let go of my final obsession,
32:32my soul began to grow faint before their eyes.
32:34Dad, Mom, don't cry.
32:36I forgive you.
32:37I really do.
32:38I looked at them and gave the most relieved and most ardent sweet smile of my life.
32:43I don't blame you.
32:45I only hope in the next life.
32:48You can love me just a little.
32:51No, don't go, Alara!
32:54The alpha leaped upward with no regard for anything,
32:56spreading his blooded, ruined arms to embrace my glowing figure.
32:59But just like countless times before,
33:00his arms still passed straight through my illusion.
33:02He fell heavily onto the cold floor,
33:04wretched and broken,
33:04able only to lift his head in despair.
33:06When I saw him fall,
33:07I instinctively wanted to help him.
33:09But there was nothing I could do.
33:10Filled with all the grief and reluctance I had never spoken,
33:13I let out one last ethereal whipper.
33:15Dad, goodbye.
33:16The starlight vanished completely.
33:18My soul turned from solid back into an illusion.
33:21But in their eyes,
33:21I disappeared forever.
33:22The royal hall was silent as death.
33:24The alpha's kneeling body suddenly stopped trembling.
33:27Slowly, he raised his head.
33:28At that moment,
33:29every trace of grief in his eyes burned away.
33:31In its place was fury.
33:33The alpha slowly stood
33:34and stared picnically at Lyra and the Black Witch,
33:36who were trying to escape in the chaos.
33:38His gaze was so cold,
33:39it was like he was looking at two corpses.
33:41Give me back my daughter's life!
33:43My soul floated in the air.
33:44I watched that delayed,
33:46frenzied revenge unfold with my own eyes.
33:48A roar that seemed to tear heaven and earth apart
33:50erupted from the alpha's throat.
33:52His bones twisted violently and swole.
33:54In the blink of an eye,
33:55he transformed into an ancient giant wolf,
33:57huge as a small mountain.
33:58His violent killing intake
33:59made the temperature in the giant hall drop to freezing.
34:02The Black Witch's face changed dramatically.
34:03She hurriedly her strongest forbidden magic shield,
34:05trying to teleport away with Lyra.
34:06But the ancient giant wolf ignored the black magic
34:08that struck his body
34:08and blocked bloody holes into it.
34:09The giant wolf leapt and bit
34:11through that supposedly indestructible magic barrier.
34:13It came tore half like a storm
34:14across the stone pillars of the royal hall.
34:15Lyra screamed until her voice broke,
34:17scrambling toward the hall door.
34:18Just as she was about to escape,
34:19a figure pounced on her like a madwoman
34:20and pinned her hard way.
34:21It was the Luna.
34:22By now, she had completely lost the reason.
34:24Like a beast protecting her cub,
34:25she bit viciously onto Lyra's shoulder
34:26and tore off a large chunk of flesh.
34:27Get off me, you crazy woman!
34:29Lyra rolled wildly on the ground in pain,
34:30covered in blood.
34:31She lifted her head
34:32and saw the crimson-eyed,
34:33ancient giant wolf
34:34approaching step by step.
34:36Panic finally overtook her.
34:37Dad!
34:38Mom!
34:38Don't kill me!
34:39I'm your daughter, Lyra!
34:41You really did love me, didn't you?
34:56You don't deserve to speak of love.
34:58You aren't worthy of being compared
35:00to a single tear of Alaris.
35:01The love we gave you
35:02was the biggest joke in the world.
35:03No!
35:04Please!
35:05Please!
35:06I beg your mercy!
35:07Didn't you love watching prey
35:08get torn apart alive?
35:10Didn't you despise the mercy
35:11of the white wolf?
35:13Satisfy you right now.
35:14The alpha reached out with hands
35:15burned by black magic
35:16until white bone showed
35:17and seized Lyra by the hair.
35:19Like dragging a dead dog,
35:20he strode out of the royal hall.
35:21He dragged the screaming Lyra
35:22all the way toward the Blood Moon Arena
35:23in the distance,
35:24the place reeking of blood.
35:25A long, horrifying trail of blood
35:27was left on the cold stone path.
35:29That was Lyra's road to repayment.
35:31But even if every drop of her blood
35:33were drained,
35:33my life would never return.
35:35Before the heavy iron gate
35:36of the Blood Moon Arena,
35:37the stench of rot and blood
35:38that had lingered for years
35:39filled the air.
35:40Lyra broke down completely.
35:41She erupted with desperate strength.
35:43Clinging to the cold iron bars
35:44of the Abled,
35:44she refused to let go.
35:45She knew better than anyone
35:46how terrifying the mad wolves
35:48and heat inside were.
35:49The alpha's eyes
35:49were like stagnant water.
35:50Without hesitation,
35:51he raised his foot
35:52and stomped heavily
35:52on Lyra's wrist.
35:53Crack!
35:54The bones in Lyra's hands
35:55snapped at the root
35:55and she screamed as she let go.
35:56The alpha kicked her
35:57into the dark arena
35:58as if tossing in a piece
35:59of bloody raw meat.
36:00Clang!
36:00The heavy iron gate
36:01was locked shut,
36:01cutting off her last chance
36:02of survival.
36:03Inside,
36:03the mad wolves,
36:04catching the scent of fresh blood,
36:05let out chilling low growls.
36:07Thick saliva dripping from their mouths,
36:08they slowly approached
36:09from the dark corners.
36:10Dad, save me!
36:11Mom, save me!
36:12Heart-renting screams
36:13erupted from inside the arena.
36:15The alpha and the blood-covered Luna
36:16stood stiffly outside the iron gate,
36:18staring hollowly
36:18at the tragedy within.
36:20Their great revenge
36:21had been fulfilled,
36:21but there was not
36:22the slightest trace of pleasure
36:24on their faces,
36:24only the deepest emptiness
36:26and a dead silence
36:27that could never be filled.
36:28The Luna lowered her head.
36:30Her dull gaze fell
36:31on the muddy ground.
36:32The pure silver dagger
36:33that had once pierced my heart
36:35still stained with my black blood
36:36lay quietly there,
36:37flashing with bone-chilling cold light.
36:39The Luna slowly knelt
36:40and reached out
36:40with trembling hands
36:41to pick up the pure silver dagger.
36:42She carefully wiped the mud
36:43from it with her sleeve,
36:44but no matter how hard she tried,
36:45she could not wipe away
36:46the dried black blood
36:46that belonged to me.
36:47For the Luna,
36:48every second alive
36:48was a hell of 10,000 arrows
36:49through the heart.
36:50She hugged the dagger tightly
36:51to her chest
36:51as if she were holding a bay-baby,
36:52and a dazed smile
36:53came to her lips.
36:54Lara is all alone underground.
36:56It's so dark there.
36:58She's been afraid of the cold
36:59since she was little.
37:00Mommy is coming to hold her now.
37:02Mommy will keep her company.
37:03Without the slightest hesitation,
37:04the Luna reversed the dagger,
37:05aimed it at her own chest,
37:06and drove it into her heart.
37:07Blood indiently gushed out,
37:08staining her clothes red.
37:09She collapsed weakly
37:10into the pool of blood.
37:11The light finally faded
37:12from her eyes,
37:12but her face carried
37:13a faint smile of relief.
37:14The Alpha stood to the side
37:15and watched his wife fall.
37:16He did not reach out to stop her.
37:17He did not even shed a tear.
37:18His heart had died long ago.
37:30He did not reach out to stop her.
37:42Lara,
37:44Dad is taking you home.
38:03My soul drifted down
38:05to the base of the cliff
38:06and gently brushed over
38:07the bodies of the Alpha and Luna.
38:08Along with the mourning howls
38:09of the Wolf Clan,
38:10a fierce wind swept through.
38:12No one would ever again hear
38:13the White Wolf abandoned
38:14by her own family,
38:15once weeping humbly in the storm.
