Wake Up As Gay Werewolf Prince [BL]

That was very unexpected for Bai Chen because Zhu Ge had underestimated him ever since they met for the first time a month ago. Zhu Ge even made his head nearly explode at that time when they were at the same river. The reason behind it? Of course, it was because Zhu Ge carelessly said that Bai Chen was just a weak and useless Werewolf Prince.

The man in red clothes even asked him to kneel on the pebbles by the river, and Bai Chen still remembered all that.

But just now the man said that he was his hero, and not only that, but the man also said that he was proud of him. Bai Chen felt that there was something odd about the taller man, and he even assumed that the man might be drunk or something.

“I will scatter the Crown Prince’s ashes into the river, now,” Bai Chen broke the silence as he felt the atmosphere around them becoming a little strange because of what Zhu Ge had just said. “Prince Wu Jinhai is waiting for us, right? We must not let him wait any longer.”

Bai Chen deliberately used the word “we” to show that he and Zhu Ge were together in this. He didn’t even know why he suddenly thought that way, but it seemed the taller man was pleased with how he chose the word to address the two of them.

“Alright,” Zhu Ge replied as he took a step back so he could give Bai Chen more room to do what he wanted to do. “Just do what you have to do, and I’ll be waiting for you here.”

Even the last sentence Zhu Ge spoke sounded gentle and calm, and Bai Chen couldn’t help but think that the man was spoiling him right now. Zhu Ge didn’t force him to do anything, and it seemed that the man was an obedient lover who would always listen to his loved one.

‘What do I think? Even if I decided to be with Zhu Ge, he never said that his feelings for me were so deep, so I shouldn’t have that kind of stupid thought just because Zhu Ge treats me better now,’ Bai Chen was embarrassed by his own thoughts, and to cover his feelings, he quickly nodded his head at the taller man before turning his body and walking towards the body of the river.

.....

His hands were full at the moment. One hand held Bai Renshu’s ashes, while Wu Jiang in the other. It was quite troublesome even if he just wanted to open the lid of the porcelain jar containing the Crown Prince’s ashes, and he even pursed his lips in annoyance at that.

“I just realized how much you treasure the sword in your hand as if you don’t want to let go even for a second,” Zhu Ge suddenly broke the silence again as he stood beside Bai Chen by the river. “But it will be difficult for you to do your job if you continue to hold the sword, right? How about I help you hold the sword for you?”

Zhu Ge sounded very concerned about the offer he just made, and Bai Chen’s blue eyes swept towards the sword and stared at the taller man for a moment.

It was the sword he received from Wu Jinhai when they were in the Forbidden Forest, and he knew that the weapon was not ordinary. Even when Bai Chen had just started holding it in his hands for the first time, the sword felt extremely heavy to him because it had not recognized him as its master at that time.

Therefore, even if Zhu Ge had good intentions because the man wanted to help him with the sword, Bai Chen knew that it would be too heavy for Zhu Ge because the sword was extraordinary, and that was why he shifted his eyes to look at the older man once more before shaking his head.

“It’s all right,” replied the Prince. “You know that this sword is from Prince Wu Jinhai, right? I’m sure you also know that this sword is special, and that’s why you don’t need to help me hold it.”

Hearing the rejection, Zhu Ge smiled slightly instead of feeling offended. “You think that the sword will burden me because it won’t recognize me as its master, right?” He asked again. “Then maybe you can ask it to fly on its own so that you don’t need to hold it in your hands.”

Bai Chen was taken aback. Even if he could be slow sometimes, he immediately understood Zhu Ge’s words this time. His memories flew to the day when Wu Jiang fought side by side with Wu Jinhai.

Back then, the eldest Prince of Wu Li didn’t even need to use the sword, but the sword could fly on its own and could even launch multiple attacks at the two men who had just broken the barrier around the Forbidden Forest’s core.

Bai Chen just remembered that, and his pair of blue eyes once again stared at the sword in his hand. “I didn’t think about that at all,” he muttered. “But I don’t know how to order this sword to fly by itself. It seems that only Prince Wu Jinhai knows about it,” he continued as he looked at Zhu Ge again.

The white-robed man thought that there must be something like a spell to command the sword to fly on his own, and that was why he hesitated even if he admitted that Zhu Ge’s suggestion was not bad.

Now he was frowning at the man who had long black hair, but the man just smiled at him calmly before saying, “That sword has recognized you as its new master, right? That’s why you should bring it close to your face before whispering to it and asking it to fly on its own. Don’t forget you have to call its name too.”
