Chapter 550 - 13.48
Little Jean traveled back to the Palace of Eau Saumont, specifically, to the maze garden. He saw that Wolf was searching for him frantically, but there didn't seem to be any sign of other guards and his Big brother.
Which meant that Wolf hadn't told his Big brother about Little Jean missing. Probably because he knew that Archduke Maximillien would forbid him from protecting Young Master Jean anymore if Wolf actually lost him.
[Ah, I took a while in Matthew's house because he said that he wants to paint me. I actually forgot about Wolf.]
[Pupa: So heartless, look at Wolf's situation right now.]
Yunyu stared at Wolf, who was dashing from one spot to another, desperately searching for his Young Master. He was holding tears as well, which made him even more pitiful to look at.
[Okay, I admit, I should've told Wolf to stay or leave me first. I was just excited to try out new things…]
Little Jean approached Wolf and then popped right in front of him, "Wolf! Jean is back!"
Wolf darted his eyes at Little Jean and hugged him instinctively. He hugged Young Master Jean as tight as possible, afraid that he might be hallucinating.
"Young Master!!" Wolf yelled. "Young Master… Young Master…. leave… don't leave… Wolf…"
"Wha—Jean doesn't leave Wolf! I just went for a trip with my magic!" Little Jean said.
"Wolf… bring Wolf!" Wolf looked so desperate. When his Young Master suddenly disappeared into thin air, Wolf got so panicked. He searched frantically because he thought that his Young Master had been kidnapped by someone else.
Wolf even thought about killing himself to follow his Young Master, in case if his Young Master was found dead.
"Wolf… Wolf… needs Young Master…" Wolf said.
Little Jean understood that Wolf must've been worried sick. It was his fault as well. Little Jean patted Wolf's head and then used the teleportation spell again.
He jumped from the Maze Garden to his room with ease.
"See, I can jump like that easily!" Little Jean said.
Wolf was utterly astonished by his Young Master's magic. He really didn't know the true extent of his Master's power. Sometimes he created something completely out of imagination as if his beloved Master was actually a god of some sort.
"Where… did… Young Master… go?" Wolf asked.
"Un… Jean went to my friend's house, Matthew. His house is in the city since Big brother won't allow Jean to visit the city, then Jean just go there on my own!"
"Young Master… bring Wolf… Wolf wants to… protect you…." Wolf begged. He tightened his hug, and Jean could feel that Wolf was actually crying.
"Wolf… can't live… without Young Master…."
"Okay, okay, I will bring you later. Don't cry, Wolf. I feel guilty for leaving you!"
"Wolf… Wolf…."
Wolf wanted to say that there was a burning feeling in his heart, but it didn't hurt him at all.
His heartfelt warm and itchy at the same time, but he didn't understand why.
"Young Master… Wolf… wants to stay…." Wolf said. He didn't know how to utter his feeling. He was yet to realize this feeling inside his heart.
But he wanted to stay with Young Master Jean forever until his death. He wanted to make sure that Young Master would be protected and cared for. He didn't even have any ambition other than guarding his Young Master.
[Ah, Wolf is definitely something else… he is so devoted and kind. I feel bad for just leaving him and made him almost died out of anxiety.]
[Not gonna lie, I like him a lot more than the rest of the male leads in this world. He is just… so cuteee~]
[Pupa: You always say that to every male lead in all worlds we've visited. But you break them all in the end.]
[Hush, no need to mention my past sins.]
Little Jean struggled to push Wolf away from him. After Wolf yielded and released his tight hug, Little Jean said, "Wolf wants to stay with Jean that much?"
"Yes…."
"Wu…" Little Jean was thinking for a moment, and then he pointed at the badge on Wolf's chest. It was a silver knight badge bestowed by the Archduchy, so Wolf was registered as the duchy's official knight.
Wolf was the youngest knight to ever be bestowed with the badge and probably also the youngest knight in the empire.
"Jean will give you a little gift!" Jean went to check his toy box and found his pack of crayons. He picked the pink crayon.
"Give me your badge, Wolf!"
Wolf obediently gave his badge, and then Little Jean started writing something on the badge with his pink crayon.
- Jean's Favorite -
"Okay, it's time for magic stuff!"
Little Jean waved the silver badge, and it shone with a gentle glow, "Wolf is Jean's favorite! Mr. Light, please bless Jean's favorite with your power!"
The pink doodle from Jean's crayon was embedded on the badge permanently, and the light around the badge dimmed slowly. Little Jean was satisfied with the result, and he gave it back to Wolf.
"Wolf, this is Jean's gift for you!" Little Jean said. "With this, whenever you want to find me, you can just hold the badge in your hand, and there will be a trail leading to me. You can try it!"
Wolf accepted the badge and then hold it tight. Slowly, he could see a light thread leading to Young Master Jean's hand, "It… it works…."
"Hehe, you will never lose Jean again in the future!"
Wolf stared at the badge, and he hummed…."
"Young Master's… favorite…." Wolf's cheeks reddened, "W—Wolf is… Young Master's… favorite?"
"Yes! You're my favorite person!" Little Jean said. "Wolf is very kind, caring, and Wolf also protects Jean!"
"Y—Young Master's… favorite…."
Wolf put the badge on his chest again. When he glanced at the mirror on his left, he could see the big 'Jean's Favorite' on his badge. Which made him so happy, he could explode out of excitement right now.
"Young Master…. is also… Wolf's favorite…."
[Pupa: Ding! Wolf Dietrich's Fatemeter increases to 50%.]
