The Witcher: Start with the Lord Marrying a Wife.

Chapter 32: Frostwolf Contract
Ouch——

The snow wolf suddenly opened his eyes wide, his eyes full of fear.

It found that no matter how it struggled, it could not get rid of the phantom of the giant frost wolf in its consciousness, so its consciousness could only be controlled by the other party.

Finally, the snow wolf whimpered softly and slowly lowered its head.

Faced with the giant frost wolf, it gave up resistance and chose to surrender.

"Is this...mind control?" David was also stunned.

He just wanted to mobilize the Frost Wolf Soul to attack the Snow Wolf's spirit, thereby further weakening the Snow Wolf's consciousness and preparing for the next taming.

Originally, he was prepared to fight a protracted war with the snow wolf, but the Frost Wolf Soul seemed to have a very strong suppressive power on the lower-level wolves!
He could feel that the Frost Wolf Soul had left a spiritual mark in the Snow Wolf's spiritual world. As long as he thought about it, he could suppress the Snow Wolf's consciousness!
He even had a feeling that if the Frost Wolf Soul was stronger, it would be able to possess the Snow Wolf and completely control its actions!
This feeling is somewhat similar to spells related to mind control. I heard that wizards can use mental contracts to subdue magical pets. His situation should be similar!
"Let's call this ability the Frostwolf Contract," David thought to himself.

This kind of ability was not recorded in the Snow Demon Breathing Technique. He felt that it should be a mutation of the soul of the Frost Wolf Snow Demon, an ability that was effective against the wolf clan!
For him, this spell-like ability was indeed an unexpected gain.

Ouch——

The Snow Wolf had completely surrendered at this point.

When David reached out and stroked its head, it did not show any dissatisfaction, but just lay there obediently, wagging its tail to show submission.

"Master David, have you tamed the Snow Wolf?"

The Gray Wolf Knight was watching from the side, stunned and horrified.

This snow wolf had just shown very strong aggressiveness, but it surrendered in the blink of an eye, which made him sigh at the lord's power.

"Yes, it has been tamed." David said confidently.

The snow wolf is now similar to his magical pet. It is more reliable than the ice wolf family’s taming method and it is almost impossible for it to betray.

Then, David brought the snow wolf out of the prison under the awed gazes of the other knights and servants, and turned over to ride on the snow wolf's back.

"Let's go," David ordered.

Ouch——

The snow wolf roared and ran quickly.

This third-level extraordinary monster is so fast that it can move as smoothly as on flat ground even on the snow, making it a perfect land mount.

Eventually, David rode back to the castle on the Snow Wolf, almost scaring the Roman Knights on patrol.

After seeing clearly that it was the Frostwolf Duke, Knight Roman breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the tamed snow wolf in some astonishment.

The Ice Wolf Family's wolf taming skills are very famous in the Crystal Song Kingdom. The most important thing is to tame the wolf from a young age, and once tamed, the wolf will not betray you.

But now, the Duke of Frostwolf actually succeeded in taming the snow wolf mount belonging to Great Knight Hobbes, which really surprised Knight Roman.

Could it be that the Frost Wolf Family also possesses some kind of wolf taming technique, and that the effect is far better than that of the Ice Wolf Family?

"Knight Roman, how is your injury?" David asked with a smile.

He still admired the Snow Eagle Knight who risked his life to save Princess Jingge. As long as the other party had any request, he would try his best to meet it. "Thank you for your concern, Duke. I am fine now."

Knight Roman said respectfully.

He is a retainer of the Crystal Song Family. Although the Duke of Frostwolf has not yet married the Princess, he still treats her as the consort of the Crystal Song Family.

Moreover, the strength of the Frostwolf Duke as an Earth Knight is enough to make people submit. This is the respect that should be shown to the strong.

"Then the safety of the castle is in your hands." David nodded with a smile.

Afterwards, he rode the snow wolf back to the castle, placed the snow wolf in a forest on the back hill of the manor, and instructed the butler to take good care of it every day.

……

The castle back garden.

Amy was reading quietly as always.

Huo Wu and Shui Lian were busy setting up tea and snacks.

Leah was practicing the Frostwolf Breathing Technique. Her figure danced on the snow like a butterfly, and each posture had a unique beauty.

This was the first time for Reina to attend such a tea party among women.

But she knew that since she had chosen to accept the Duke, she had to accept everything about him, including the two sisters who served him together.

She first looked at Leah who was practicing the Frost Wolf Breathing Technique in the field.

During the previous battle, she was surprised to learn that Leah was also an official knight who had awakened the bloodline of the Frostwolf. She knew how difficult this was.

In particular, we learned from the maid in the castle that before Leah met the Frostwolf Duke, she was just a civilian. She was sent to the castle only because she had the Frostwolf family's iconic gray hair and was thought to have Frostwolf blood, hoping to give birth to a child with Frostwolf blood for the Frostwolf family.

In this case, from an ordinary person to awakening the Frostwolf bloodline, and then to crossing the level of knight squire and successfully relying on the Frostwolf bloodline to become a formal knight, Leah's talent seems to be even stronger than that of her, Princess Jingge!
When she saw that Leah actually had the Frostwolf potion to assist her in her practice, her eyes suddenly brightened up as she thought of the Duke's previous promise.

Therefore, it was true that the Duke of Frostwolf promised to help her find the materials to prepare the Snow Demon potion and to help her practice the Snow Demon Breathing Technique.

It was ridiculous. She didn't believe it at all at first. She mocked the Frostwolf Duke in her heart more than once, saying that he would promise her anything in order to get her.

Now, she no longer has any doubts about the Duke, which makes her eyes show hope. She believes that the Duke will definitely help her find the materials to prepare the Snow Demon Potion, and she will definitely become stronger!
She retracted her gaze and looked at Amy who was reading a book. It was hard to imagine that this was a witch who possessed the power of ice, and that the Duke of Frostwolf was willing to marry a witch and protect her despite the threats from the church.

Now, she suddenly understood why Leah and Amy, who seemed so outstanding, were willing to follow the Duke of Frostwolf and even wanted to give birth to children for him without any status.

And this might be the reason why Duke Frostwolf was unwilling to marry her.

"So, it's not what I thought?"

Thinking of the kindness that Duke Frostwolf had shown to her, Lena showed an expression of relief on her face.

The knot that had been in her heart for so long was finally untied. She took a deep breath and suddenly murmured in a low voice, "You win."
