I Became A Mighty Lion

It was late at night.

The moon is shadowy, and the deep and empty castle is silent.

There was no one in the garden, and the corpses and blood stains on the grass had long disappeared, as if nothing had ever happened.

On the dark corridor, pale moonlight poured in through the windows.

On the ground, there was a black shadow, crawling slowly on its hands and feet.

In the room, the scorching light flickered and the light was dim. Willis and Annie were sitting at the table, whispering, and the big black bear was sleeping soundly in the corner.

Catherine, on the other hand, was standing in the shadows, looking at them at a loss.

They always took the trouble to ask her something, but she always looked blank and couldn't answer.

In the corridor outside the door, there was a sudden sound of figures, as if something was rubbing on the ground, getting closer and closer. It sounded particularly penetrating in the silent night.

The big black bear, who was sleeping soundly in the corner, suddenly opened his eyes, but subconsciously shrank his neck and shivered.

Catherine was standing there blankly, her mind in confusion, and she didn't seem to hear the voice.

Willis stood up, picked up the giant sword from her side, and walked towards the door step by step with sharp eyes.

"Knock! Knock! Knock!"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

However, the sound came from the bottom of the wooden door.

The pale moonlight shone a shadow crawling on the ground outside the door through the bottom crack of the door. It was very long and swaying, like a ghost.

"Click!"

Willis suddenly opened the door, and the giant sword in her hand was inserted into the ground in front of her with a clang. The sharp sword blade splashed a few sparks on the hard bluestone.

The giant sword protected her petite and exquisite body. As long as she kicked out, the sharp blade would cut forward!

The cold night wind blew from outside the door. Willis's silver hair was flying, her hands were holding the hilt of the giant sword, her eyes were like a torch, and she scolded without fear: "Who?"

She lowered her head,

He looked towards the ground.

The black shadow crawling on the ground tilted its head, looking at him with blue eyes, with a dumb look on its face, and suddenly said: "Me."

Of course, when he said the word "I", his body was obviously shaken, with a look of shock and disbelief on his face.

Catherine ran over and smelled the familiar scent on his body, with the same stupid look on her face.

"What are you doing lying on the ground?"

Willis put away her giant sword in shock, blinked and asked.

"I...I can speak?"

The black figure on the ground seemed not to have heard the words. He was still immersed in the word "I" that he suddenly blurted out just now, and was so shocked that he couldn't extricate himself.

Willis rolled her eyes and said with a cold face: "Not only can you speak, but you can also stand up and walk. How do you think you are an elf knight crawling on the ground and squirming?"

Chu Xiaoye cocked his head and looked at her with a look of astonishment on his face.

Then, he tried to put his hands and legs on the ground, and slowly stood up.

He really stood up!

He lowered his head and looked at his hands, his legs, his body, everything about him, with a confused look on his face.

He turned into an elf!

This elf was none other than the elf boy he had killed in the garden in the evening - strictly speaking, it was himself!

When he woke up alone in a dark room just now, he thought he was dead.

He crawled out of the room in a daze and crawled along the corridor, thinking that he was still a lion, like a walking zombie without a soul. Then, he crawled here and heard the voice inside.

"king……"

Annie came over, her eyes filled with tears, looked at him brightly, and said happily: "You are not dead. You killed your true self, and then merged with his body. From now on, You are you, the only you, the real you. Everything you have is in your own hands, and no one can take it away easily. You are truly free."

Willis on the side said coldly: "No living species is truly free. Your Highness, I hope this is the last time to remind you that he is not your king, and he is not called king."

Anne wiped the tears from her eyes, smiled softly, stretched out her little hand to her king, and solemnly introduced: "Hello Ye, my name is Anne, Princess Anne, your friend and companion, and also your family. , and my sister.”

Chu Xiaoye stood there stunned, stretched out his hand tremblingly, and held it with her cold little hand.

He is half a head lower than Willis and one head lower than Anne. He looks like a young and innocent little boy, but he is actually a real elf boy.

Like Willis, he seems to be short of height.

He was still very uncomfortable with this new body. He held Annie's soft and delicate little hand, trembling and involuntarily exerting force, which made little Annie's expression change.

Willis quickly opened his hand.

Catherine stood aside, raising her head and looking at him blankly, but in those dark eyes, there was still trust and affection that had never left.

Chu Xiaoye stretched out her hand tremblingly, touched her head, and suddenly said: "Where is my body?"

After being stunned for a moment, he repeated: "I mean, where is my original body?"

Catherine lowered her head and rubbed his palm gently, with a confused look on her face.

She didn't know how to answer.

In the evening, she saw what happened in the garden, but the scene was too strange for her to describe.

After being quiet for a while, Wei Lisifang said: "Don't worry, you are still a lion. You can't control the power in your body now. You will change back when dawn comes."

Chu Xiaoye looked at her in astonishment and said tremblingly: "You mean...at dawn, I will change back to my original lion appearance, and at night, I will..."

"That's not necessarily the case."

Willis shook her head, expressionless, and said: "Only when you truly control the power within your body can you change freely."

Anne said anxiously from the side: "Willis, then, is Ye now a lion or an elf? What will his future identity be like?"

Willis shrugged her shoulders and said: "It depends on himself. Any changes will change with his own mood. If he is willing to be an elf, then he is an elf. If he is willing to be a lion, then , he is naturally a lion."

Anne seemed to understand. She looked at her king with bright eyes and murmured in a low voice: "I hope he will always be an elf."

Catherine raised her head and looked at her coldly.

"Can I...try your sword?"

Chu Xiaoye suddenly stretched out his trembling hand and grasped the giant sword leaning against the door.

Willis frowned and hesitated for a moment, but without stopping, she said coldly: "You can't lift it."

She was born with supernatural powers, so she needed both hands to hold it every time. How could a lion that had just acquired an elf body be able to hold it with trembling hands?

However, Chu Xiaoye suddenly picked it up with one hand, and then chopped it with a click. With a "click", the wooden door broke into two halves.
