After Annan took the medicine, he quickly lay down in bed and fell asleep.

When he slowly woke up and opened his eyes because of the familiar feeling of falling, the data flow in front of him began to gradually dissipate.

"Yes, I will fall into the abyss one day."

Annan heard a cold voice that was familiar and unfamiliar, ringing in his ears.

He reacted immediately—it was his own voice.

Or rather, this is the voice of "Annan".

"My body was burned to the ground, my teeth rotted, and my flesh dissolved.

"—but until then, I will walk with the Light."

…… This seems to be a poem written by a poet in the dead of winter?

Such a thought flashed through Annan's mind.

But before Annan could think about it, the nightmare was already loaded.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself huddled in the corner at the end of the alley. The whole body is sore and quite weak from the cold air.

Even the initial health is only 90%.

…… Well? Uh-huh??

Annan, who had just entered the nightmare and whose brain was not very clear, was suddenly blindsided for a moment.

Is this my nightmare? This is me?

No, no, no, no, right?

“…… Yes. ”

Annan sighed meaninglessly.

He suddenly reacted.

Although this is his own nightmare, although the age of this body is very similar to that of young Annan...... But this is not Annan's body.

Because when Annan just wanted to stand up, he suddenly realized that the shape of his spine was not the same as that of ordinary people-

It's more like a canine's spine than a human.

Annan looked down and found that his skin was also covered with a thick layer of gray-white hair. Both arms and legs are in the shape of a wolf, with only the fingers being closer to the shape of a human than a wolf.

He even has a large, fluffy, gray-white tail.

And take a closer look...... It's still a mother.

…… Am I a wolf?

No, it's a frost beast? It doesn't seem right......

Annan's mind moved.

He felt his spine and flesh suddenly deform, the tightened muscles in his arms and legs slowly relaxed, the fur on his hands and face faded, and his fingers became white and slender, turning into a shape close to that of a human, only slightly rough.

But his feet were still unhuman, and his fluffy tail and ears hadn't disappeared.

Annan stood up this time and groped for his shabby, thin clothes.

By the touch, he roughly judged the ...... Although the body was covered in bruises and abrasions from the beating, its bones and internal organs were not seriously injured.

"That's too thin, isn't it?"

Annan complained in a low voice, "What is this, werewolf?" ”

Why did you have such a thing in your nightmare?

At most, this is spring and autumn clothes...... But strangely, Annan did not feel very cold.

Maybe it's because of the hair that covered the body before.

But just then, Annan heard footsteps.

It was the footsteps of an adult male.

His pupils contracted instantly, and his body subconsciously curled up, crouched, and looked up.

- Completely different from the human horizon.

The moment Annan sensed the danger, the whole world in front of him turned into a pure dim vision in an instant.

Time seems to flow twice as slowly, and the colors become a little blurry and unclear.

And the silhouette of what was still moving in front of me became unusually bright.

Walking towards Annan was an old-fashioned-looking old man.

He wears a heavy high-necked tan trench coat, a dark brown top hat with beaver fur, a cane in his hand, and heavy plush boots.

At the moment of staring at him, Annan's eyes appeared in front of the task of introducing this dungeon:

"December 30, 1496.

"Your name is Bella, a werewolf without parents and therefore no surname.

"It is well known that the Frostbeast is a divine monster that looks like a wolf and is born by devouring the spiritual powers of 'hope, love, loyalty, and happiness', and the werewolf is a native of the land that existed before the old grandmother came to this land.

"There is no blood relationship between the 'Werewolf' and the 'Frost Beast'. The only similarity is that they all look like wolves.

"But that doesn't stop the winter people who have suffered from the Frost Beast from hating and discriminating against werewolves.

"Mortals are completely unable to resist the scourge of frost beasts. Therefore, in the Duchy of Winter, the existence of the Transcendent must be made public...... Unlike other nations, the transcendents of the Duchy of Winter must take on the responsibility of protecting villages and towns from the onslaught of frost beasts.

"And if you want to become a human being, you must either become a transcendent being or you must become a master of ceremonies. Still a young girl, Bella was bullied by the villagers, and made up her mind that she would "become a transcendent or a ritual master", "she must become a big man", and "she must get ahead", so she ran from St. Alexei Province to Frost Province in the winter year.

This can be seen as both Bella's dream and her delusion. She doesn't know swordsmanship, she doesn't know how to hunt, she can't read or write, she is not strong enough, her brain is not good, her body is thin, and her temperament is not good, only her appearance can be regarded as beautiful.

"With her talent, with her identity, with her abilities, it is impossible for her to embark on the path of transcendence on her own alone, and no ceremonial master would be willing to recruit a stupid apprentice. At most, it can only be the private pet of those who have special hobbies - very rare and interested in werewolf girls.

However, Bella was not willing to accept such a fate.

"She had only one thought in her unintelligent mind: she wanted to be a human being.

"She is willing to pay whatever it takes to achieve this.

"—she is willing to endure all suffering."

After these words dissipated, a line of words resurfaced in front of Annan's eyes:

【Main Quest: Become a Transcendent】

Immediately, a large area of small words resurfaced under this line:

【Join the Hand of Winter】

【Complete "Wolf Kiss" Training】
