Star-Moon Key: A Fantastical Love and Battle Under Sirius
墨書 Inktalez
"The Star-Moon Key... it's really, truly on her! I saw it with my own eyes; that key transformed into a streak of light and merged into her body!" The Wolf Demon, intimidated by my presence, crouched on the ground, not daring to lift its head, responding in a stammering manner.
I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm the turbulent emotions within me. Slowly, I walked to the window, pushed it open, and let the night breeze brush against my face. The pitch-black sky was dotted with stars, and a bright moon hung high, as if mocking my ignorance.
"You mentioned 'her.' When did she obtain the Star-Moon Key?" I asked, facing away from the Wolf Demon, my tone eerily calm.
"Just... just a month ago. A man in black... he... he gave her the key," the Wolf Demon said tremulously, afraid of missing any detail.
A month ago... wasn't that when I first met her? Could it be that everything was preordained?
I turned around, fixing a sharp gaze on the Wolf Demon. "Who was that man in black? Why did he give her the Star-Moon Key?"
The Wolf Demon trembled under my stare and stuttered, "I... I don't know. That person was masked. I only heard him say, 'This is your destined mission,' and then he gave her the key and left."
"A destined mission?" I repeated softly, feeling even more clouded with doubt.
She, an innocent and kind ordinary woman, how could she have any 'destined mission'? Who is orchestrating all of this? What connection does the Star-Moon Key have with her?
I slowly exhaled, wearily rubbed my temples, suppressing the swirling emotions within me and restoring my usual gentleness.
"I understand now. You may leave," I said lightly, my tone revealing no hint of turmoil.
Wolf Demon scrambled to his feet, bowing and retreating in a flustered manner.
The room fell silent again, with only the occasional sound of the wind outside, resembling the low whimper of a beast.
I stood up and walked to the window, gazing at the distant flickering lights of countless homes, yet my heart felt icy.
The Star-Moon Key was actually on her?
This news struck my mind like thunder, leaving me restless for a long time.
Outside, the night deepened, and the cold wind howled, as if foretelling an even greater storm was about to arrive. I clenched my fists, my gaze resolute.
I ordered Wolf Demon to closely monitor the movements of the Crimson Flame Tiger Clan. If there were any unusual activities, he was to report immediately. At the same time, I secretly strengthened the protection around Su Muqing. The bodyguard team arranged by Uncle Wang was on duty day and night to ensure her safety. I knew a storm was approaching.
I sighed softly, "Uncle Wang, how is Muqing doing lately?"
Uncle Wang walked over to me, his expression serious. "Miss is doing well, but..."
"But what?" My only task was to protect the person I cherished most during this storm.
I picked up my phone and dialed a number.
"Hello, it's me. The plan is moving forward; have the Brothers get ready." After I finished speaking, I hung up and fixed my determined gaze on the distance.
Wang Shu furrowed his brow, hesitating for a moment before saying, "It's just that the young lady seems to have noticed something unusual lately. She has been asking about your well-being and even mentioned..."
"What else did she say?" I suddenly stood up, my gaze sharp as I stared at Wang Shu.
