Reincarnated As A Wolf With Cheats

Chapter 197 Youth Regaining Potion

It was not only Terran but also Kaily who got hit by the lightning. They called their master by his name after all so it was understandable that they were going to receive some punishment.

Of course, it was only after that did they realize that they had said his name by mistake.

After seeing this happen, Aella, who previously was a bit suspicious, now became sure of it - 'Since they were desperate enough to take master's name, they would surely be his servants.'

She looked at Alira to whom he had already taken a liking to and asked, "You, are you master's servant as well?"

"Yes.", Alira nodded with a smile on her face.

Well, Shin did term it as friends however this was something that beasts wouldn't understand that easily - they are after each other's lives every time so they wouldn't have time to think about the term friends.

That was why, whenever Shin told about friends, they thought that it was a roundabout way of saying that all of them were his slaves. Of course, subordinates was the other term which Shin used often.

"So, where is he?"

"I have been searching all this time but I have yet to find any clues about his whereabouts!"

Upon seeing Aella so tensed up, Terran after shaking his body to remove the dust and recovering from the shock, said, "Master was desperately searching you all this time."

"But a few days ago-"

Terran explained all that had happened and Aella believed all those things. There were two reasons for which she believed them, one - they were conversing so easily without any change in emotion which Aella considered to be the truth.

Second - they all had crests on their heads of chest or arm which were similar to the one she had. With that, she was able to identify if they were of the same familiar or not.

"Hmm..."

And right after that, she decided to take the help of goblins since they were almost at the edge of the forest. She already knew them and since they feared high rankings, they would do anything to save their necks.

After thinking and suggesting this, Aella along with others, went towards the goblins' village or cave only to find about Shin.

Since Terran and Kaily had come to find Shin, they thought that it would be better to inquire from the goblins if possible and went along with Aella while agreeing to her sound argument.

Soon enough, they met Shin after crossing all the dead bodies and the entire kingdom and reaching almost at the center. Of course, the other side of the kingdom which was lined by a totally different kingdom altogether was safe since Shin and the monsters never went that way, but it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Shin conquered a human kingdom and placed a human - Kerin - to lead all while sparing only a few nobles who seemed worthy enough to serve him.

"I..."

"I see, so you weren't hurt by her but were hurt because you accidentally spoke my name...", Shin had a weird expression on his face.

"Then what did you mean by bashing them up?", Shin turned towards Aella and asked this.

"Well, they sure did get burned and hurt because of the lightning..."

"But other than that, I hit them a few times when they challenged me.", Aella's ears were down as if she was emotionally unstable.

"Huh? Why would you challenge her?"

Shin was confused when he asked Terran and Kaily. They all came to find Shin so there was no need to challenge each other or fight, so something was surely up. But what was it? Shin wanted to find it out.

"Uh, master, she said that she was your number one subordinate and she was the most favorite of all so we kind of challenged...", Terran said this while trying to avoid Shin's gazes.

"Nani!?"

He looked at Kaily who tried to avoid gazes too and realized that Terran said a shocking truth.

'They fought for a silly reason like that?', he was genuinely surprised.

'Aren't they a bit too...'

'Uh...'

'What to say...?'

Shin couldn't even think properly anymore after hearing that.

'Sigh, never mind. In the end, I found Aella and I can now rest for quite some time peacefully.'

After handing the kingdom to Kerin and explaining many things, Shin and the rest of them returned to the forest where the Arb elves were waiting for them.

They were happy to see Shin return and were surprised to see many more wolves and goblins joining them.

The goblins couldn't enter the deep parts of the forest since they would be attacked by monsters that are stronger than them, but due to Shin's presence and his Aura which spread keeping the beasts away, they could easily enter the forest. Of course, he deactivated the skill Aura control till they arrived at the center of the forest.

The elves were startled because of this but after seeing that it was being liberated from Shin, instead of running, they stood while trembling believing that he had no ill intentions.

Of course, he activated the skill again to prevent them from being scared anymore.

After that, all of them had a nice talk with Shin as he explained what had happened so far. Seeing that a pack of shadow wolves had joined them, arouse a reason for toast and banquet and yet again the elves went and collected some great fruits and some meat this time of other monsters for the party.

"Haha, now I can finally rest.", just when Shin had said that, he noticed someone waving his hand at him.

'Huh?'

When Shin looked at him, he was completely baffled. A small tree-like twig was waving one of his tender and small branches at Shin, which he confused with an arm.

Of course, he identified him almost instantly the moment he looked at his name and murmured, "Mr. Mo?"

Right after that, he rushed towards him with awe. Earlier, Mo was a gigantic tree that was feared to be one of the most dangerous trees, but right now, he looked nothing more than a thin sapling or a plant. He was hardly taller than Shin.

"Mr. Mo, is that really you?", he asked despite having confirmed earlier.

"Y-yes.", Mo seemed somewhat sad when he answered that.

"Wha-"

"What happened? Why did you grow smaller?"

Well, Shin had somewhat guessed the reason but still wanted him to answer to be sure if that was right.

"The potion which the witch gave..."

"I think it regressed my age in plant form instead of regressing or turning back me into a human.", he sighed.

'Interesting...'

'Does that mean we can use that potion to regain our youth?'

'A youth potion!?', Shin's eyes were filled with beaming light and stars.

It was as if he found something interesting yet again and of course, this time it was definitely something that should be thought about.

Regaining youth was something that almost all desired and even if they didn't, they would definitely want to return to their younger forms and re-live their lives or make things better.

Without a doubt, it was a way to avoid death or decelerate death and this was what Shin was fascinated about. He immediately called Kaily towards him.

He asked after her arrival, "Hey Kaily, did you know what effect your potion had on Mr. Mo?"

"Uh, master, I think it helped him regain his youth...", she said this while looking at the ground.

"Ah, so you knew what effect your potion had."

"Does this mean that you lied about your curse-breaking potion?", Shin asked while glaring at her.

"N-no."

"That's not it..."

She curled her hair a bit with her fingers and then said, "I really had the curse-breaking potion and it was the same potion that I gave him, but it had a weird effect."

"What do you mean?", Shin was confused by what she meant.

"Master, the knowledge and the books that I learned earlier said - the curse-breaking potion may transform into youth regaining potion under special conditions."

"And I think, keeping the potion for quite a longer period turns them to the said potion.", she mumbled.

'Hmm, so that's what happened.'

'She partly knew that the potion might work as youth regaining potion but wasn't sure.'

'Maybe that's why she was a bit hesitant while looking at the potion.'

"So, how many more bottles of this potion do you have?", Shin asked.

"I think, five more.", she mumbled.

Her voice was low probably because she was apologetic. But Shin had nothing to scold her about, in fact, he was happy because of the youth regaining potion.

Youth regaining - a potion that rewinds the time of the person to his previous self, giving him the effect of regaining his/her youth.

'If the potion was used carefully, it could also be used as a superior healing potion.', Shin smirked.

And he was completely right after it, regaining youth is nothing but going back in time or somewhat similar to it. Only the body changes and since that happened, even if one has lost his arm, he might be able to regain it if the potion is used - after all, all the cells which might have been dead for a long time gets re-created with the help of mana and energy stored in the potion!

"Keke..."

"Ha..."

"Hahahaha!"

"Splendid Kaily!"

"This is awesome!"

"I never thought that you would have developed such a potion!"

And with that, Shin started complimenting and praising Kaily with which her mood improved soon enough. Right after that, they re-joined the banquet.

"Erm, what about me?", and Mo was left behind, hiding behind a tree.
