811 Words
The next morning, Lin Yue woke up from a heavy sleep, his head still a little dizzy. He felt sore all over, as if he had experienced a fierce battle, but compared with the fear of last night, this pain made him feel more at ease.
He slowly recalled everything that happened last night, and the doubts and uneasiness in his heart surged again. Lin Yue knew that he could not ignore these changes, and he had to find out the truth behind all this.
"What am I? Why did it become like this?" Lin Yue asked himself in his heart, with a flash of determination in his eyes. He was determined not to escape anymore and had to face this new self.
He put on his clothes, walked out of the bedroom, and saw Li Mo sitting in the living room waiting. Lin Yue realized that Li Mo might be the only one who could explain all this.
"Lin Yue, how do you feel?" Li Mo asked with a smile, with a hint of concern in his tone.
"A little tired, but better than yesterday." Lin Yue responded, but the doubt in his eyes was obvious. "Li Mo, I need to know more. Why did it become like this? What am I?"
Li Mo nodded and motioned Lin Yue to sit down. "You have the right to know the truth, Lin Yue. You are a werewolf with ancient blood. This power awakens under certain conditions and gives you the ability to surpass ordinary people. But this also means that you must learn to control this power, otherwise it will destroy you."
"Werewolf...ancient blood?" Lin Yue chewed these words over and over again, and the confusion in her heart did not disappear. "But why me? I have never heard of such a thing, and I don't even know that it is possible."
"This is not surprising." Li Mo explained, "The werewolf tribe has long been hidden in the dark to avoid being discovered by ordinary humans. Our existence must remain secret, which is also for the safety of the tribe. Only when the blood awakens can our true identity be revealed."
Lin Yue fell into deep thought, and he began to understand why he had never discovered any clues of all this. The secretive life, the werewolves hidden in ordinary human society, all of these shocked him.
"So, I'm a werewolf, and you... too?" Lin Yue looked up and asked, with a hint of complex emotions in her eyes.
Li Mo nodded, "Yes, I'm also a werewolf. We belong to the same tribe. One of my tasks is to find and guide new werewolves like you and help you learn to control your power."
A complex emotion surged in Lin Yue's heart. He never thought that he would be associated with such a mysterious and ancient tribe. "Then what should I do? How can I really control this power?"
Li Mo looked at Lin Yue seriously, "First, you need training. This is not only physical, but also mental training. You need to learn to stay calm in any situation and control your emotions, because emotions are the biggest trigger point for animal instincts."
Lin Yue nodded, and gradually accepted this fact in his heart. Although this power made him feel afraid, he also realized that this might be the fate he had to face.
"You have taken the first step, Lin Yue." Li Mo continued, "It takes time and patience to control this power, but you have gone further than many new werewolves. As long as you keep working hard, I believe you can do it."
Lin Yue felt his heart gradually calm down. Although the future is full of unknowns and challenges, he is no longer afraid. Because he knows that he is no longer alone, he has a tribe and a mentor like Li Mo to help him.
"I will do my best to learn." Lin Yue said firmly, with determination in his eyes.
Li Mo nodded with satisfaction, "You can rest and recover your strength today. Tomorrow we will start formal training. You will soon adapt to the existence of this power, and you may even find that it is stronger than you think."
Lin Yue stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the sunlight outside the window shining on the streets of the city. The fear and doubt in his heart were gradually replaced by faith. He knew that he was about to face a challenging road, but he was ready.
"I will, no matter what the cost." Lin Yue swore silently in his heart. He has decided not to escape, but to welcome the power given to him by fate.
So, he got up early and went to bed late every day and started hard training, and his physical strength and ability improved rapidly.
