Mystery: She came from the Chaos Sea.

Chapter 8 Following the Guidance of Luck

Are they breeding targets or food rations?

If I had to choose between the two, I'd pick the latter...

Moreover, judging from the attitude of "Misfortune," it doesn't seem like she really wants me to have a baby.

Trading reputation for survival, face for substance—Hermione felt it was a fair deal!

Seeing Helmayne fall silent, Lady "Misfortune" seemed to think she still had doubts, softened her tone, and explained in more detail:

"Don't worry, I don't need to eliminate any unnecessary extraordinary traits."

After a pause, He said again, "I do need you."

"But what I covet about you isn't your body. Just staying here has already been a great help to me. I'll send you back to the human tribe when the opportunity arises."

Can I help them by staying here?

Helmani didn't understand the meaning of those words, but judging from the way Lady "Misfortune" pursed her lips, she clearly didn't want to explain further.

But they actually plan to send me back to the tribe?

Hermaine was surprised.

Lady "Misfortune" really doesn't seem like a brutal dire wolf at all... although in the mysterious world, it's more about stances than distinguishing between good and bad.

But at this moment, Helmaene genuinely hoped that this good person, Lady "Misfortune," would not perish at the hands of the ancient sun god or the goddess of night.

But she's only at Sequence 5 right now. Even if she could foresee the future, how could she possibly help the other person avoid this misfortune...?

Should the "misfortune" lady be persuaded to switch allegiance to the power of the ancient sun god?

Advise the "Misfortune Lady" not to advance to Sequence 1 and become the target of the Goddess of Night?

Or, take a big gamble and help Lady "Misfortune" become the true god of passage before the goddess of night.

My head is starting to hurt again...

"I'm going back to cooking."

Hermaine didn't dwell on the question any further, since it was still early and neither the ancient sun god nor the goddess of night had yet shown any signs of appearing.

More importantly, Lady "Misfortune" is clearly not going to listen to the advice of this weak human.

……

After the "Mother of Heaven" visited her, perhaps due to the forbidden rumors spread by the "Lady of Misfortune," Helmaenie was able to live peacefully in the Land of the Demon Wolves.

During this period of peaceful life, the residence belonging to the "misfortune" lady gradually became more and more alive.

Helmani discovers that Lady "Misfortune" is consciously adopting human habits, such as the fact that the wolf does not have customs like brushing its teeth, washing its face, eating cooked food, making and using furniture, or going to bed.

But the "misfortune" lady did it every single day without fail, and it even became a habit.

Helmani, who lived with the Lady of Misfortune, almost thought that the Lady of Misfortune was a human disguised as a wolf.

"Lady 'Misfortune,' why do you intentionally learn human customs?" Helmey had asked her curiously, but had not received a specific answer.

To this question, Lady "Misfortune" replied meaningfully, "Come ask me this question again when you have entered the realm of demigods."

What is the relationship between human customs and demigods or even gods?

Helmani often pondered this question in her spare time, recalling a mention in a video that gods all need anchor points. Even later true gods were essentially anchored to humanity.

A true god with a large number of anchor points is mentally stable; conversely, a god who loses a large number of anchor points will be in a poor state.

The "Misfortune" lady's behavior of mimicking human habits may be related to anchors.

It's at least related to stabilizing one's mental state!

"Mistress of Misfortune" is truly gifted... She managed to figure out a way to stabilize her mind without any information or hints. Helmey thought to herself with admiration.

This suggests that the "Misfortune" woman kept her by her side simply to find a human to interact with and study in close proximity...

After figuring out what "Misfortune" meant to her, Helmaenie felt a little disappointed—she had thought she held a special place in "Misfortune's" heart, but she discovered that the other party was only after her human identity.

Although Helmaenie did not have any special feelings for Lady "Misfortune".

But living with a stunningly beautiful woman for so long, and being cared for so well by her, made it impossible for Hermaine not to feel any ripples in her heart.

Well, even species isolation can't stop me from having wild thoughts. I can't blame my poor resistance; I can only blame Lady "misfortune" for being too tempting!

How could one not be distracted by such a beautiful woman spending every day with her?

but……

I wanted to escape the kingdom of the demon wolves, but I knew that I and the demon wolves were destined to be separated from Lady "Misfortune" of the gods... So let this feeling be buried in my youth!

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Helmani used her nonsensical rants to quickly adjust her mindset, which had unknowingly drifted off course in her mundane life.

……

With the protection of Lady "Misfortune," Helmaenie's safety is guaranteed as long as she doesn't go out recklessly.

Losing her freedom wasn't easy, but she had enough to eat and wear, and Helmey had things to do, like organizing the key points mentioned in the video stories based on her real-life knowledge and experiences, so her life was quite fulfilling.

Helmayne thought this would continue until the Lady of Misfortune would send her back to the human tribe, but before that day arrived, Helmayne met someone who astonished her—

A thin boy with long silver hair stood timidly at the door of the residence, his eyes tightly shut like a blind man's... After the initial shock, Helmani quickly pulled the boy into the residence of the "Misfortune" lady!

"Ulorius! What are you doing here?!" Hermaine exclaimed.

The boy with gentle features opened his eyes. His eyes were pure, and the slightly sad expression on his face turned into a hint of joy, a hint of relief, and a hint of heartache after seeing Helmaenie.

His voice was soft, yet not at all gloomy; it was the pure and innocent voice of a child: "Sister Helmani, I came here following the guidance of luck."

Follow the guidance of luck...

Helmani knew that the child before her possessed the ability to use "luck," but that ability was unpredictable; how could it have penetrated deep into the Wolf Kingdom and found her?!

"Ulorius, this is the land of the dire wolves! You came all alone like this?!" Hermaine was still somewhat incredulous.

Ulorus said softly, "Everyone says you were kidnapped by the demon wolves... The people of the tribe are very worried about you, so I came out specifically to find you. My faith has made me very lucky along the way..."

Ouroboros's words were filled with piety toward the "fortunate path" and the happiness of "achieving the goal":

"Now, I've finally found you."
