The supreme sovereign system

Chapter 23 - Consequences

"Well~ lets forget about the boring stuff~ , Little Al, although I do admire courage, there a thin line between bravery and stupidity" Say Demeter while changing her tone of voice.

"And when you make a stupid decision… there a consequence…" Say Demeter while looking at Alfonso's right leg. Alfonso became pale immediately, he tried to move his leg, his soul left his body when he couldn't feel anything… like there wasn't a leg there! However, he sees something unbelievable, his right leg make a small move, Alfonso didn't know what to say, he tried to move it to the right, and once again, he couldn't feel anything but his leg made the motion of movement, Alfonso was stunned for some time before he turned to Artemisa.

"What is going on?" Asked Alfonso.

Artemisa just looked down in a guilty manner, she remember that Alfonso basically injured himself because of saving her. Demeter looked at Artemisa and made a long sight, then she explained to Alfonso.

"When Artemisa brought you to me, you were at verge of dying, I used my knowledge and, with me and Artemisa, we managed to save you, however, your leg was literally dead, the bite that you suffer destroy your muscles and break your bones, I don't how did you manage to stood that after that....anyway the big problem was that the injured was coagulating your blood, if we didn't amputated your leg, there will be serious consequences, however, Artemisa insist that there must be a way to conserve your leg, so we came to a decision" Say Demeter while taking out a small branch.

"I make an incision in your leg and then put this kind of branch inside, then I used my powers to make it grown to replace your bones and repair your muscles, that's why you don't you have any sensation on your leg, however, you can control the movements of it because I connected a thin branch to your nerves, do you understand?" Asked Demeter.

Alfonso was stunned, he couldn't' talk for a very long time before he sat down and lift the bed sheets. He saw that his leg was brown, not brown like when he tans, this brown was like the brown of wood. Alfonso need several minutes to proceed after he finally, calmed down, Artemisa and Demeter didn't say anything to him and just stay there, after they saw that Alfonso calmed down , Demeter proceeded.

"There is something else that you need to know, the fact that I could made a branch and inserted in your brain isn't possible with a normal human, the branch will try to pierce the brain because of the huge amount of life force I need to put in the branch to make this work, you will need a body that can regenerate faster than the branch pierce your brain, in other words, you are not a ordinary human, at least, not anymore." Say Demeter.

"Wha….what do you mean by that? How can I not be a normal human?!" Asked Alfonso who was surprised once again.

"I can explain that" Say suddenly Artemisa.

"Remember that you and that Lykos mixed your bloods? , well, what you were doing was actually a kind of ritual, if you want to put in other words... you are cursed" Say Artemisa

"What the…" before Alfonso could say anything else a message from the system pop in his head.

[Host conditions are abnormal, like goddess Artemisa said, Host is cursed.

Lycanthrope Curse:

You made a pledge to never betray the wolf's clan, to make sure that you don't break your promise, Cerberus cursed you with this ritual, if you betray the trust of Cerberus, you will turn into a Lycanthrope, when there is moonlight , you will became a monster, however, this cursed is for both sides, if Cerberus ever betrays you, he will die. Another side effect of this curse is that you received part of the wolves abilities:

Innate Regeneration : Your wounds heals 80% faster than usual.

Wolves Language : You can talk to any kind of wolf.]

"I was wondering why did Cerberus wanted me to do that….. however, this is not bad, because of this , I can, at least, have something to call leg, of course, its not actually a leg" Say Alfonso with a bitter smile.

"Looked for the bright side Little Al~ being a friend of the wolves is awesome~ , big brother spent countless of years trying to persuade the wolves until they finally agreed to being their subordinate, you know?~" Say Demeter while returning to her usual candid smile.

Alfonso just stood there and then make a long sight.

"Well , what is done is done, at least, I can live a normal live, that's more than enough given the current circumstances I guess, thank you for saving me Demeter, and also you Artemisa" Say Alfonso with a light smile.

Artemisa just sit there without changing her expression, although, if one looked closely enough, he could see that there was some red in her cheeks, on the other side, Demeter, who had been hugging Alfonso' head all this time, hug it even harder.

"My~ My~ little Al, you are really cute~ , I wish my little brothers and sister were like you~ " Say Demeter while smiling candidly.

Just like this the trio stay in Alfonso's room for some time chatting, however, Alfonso didn't know that while he was happily chatting with two goddess, Ribeiro was having a huge headache.

.........…..

[At the entrance of the manor]

"What I am supposed to do with this" Thought Ribeiro.

It was obvious that he was quite frustrated, because there were 20 something wolves at the entrance of the manor!
