311 An Unexpected Letter
I nodded, not fully understanding what he meant. Michael continued, “You can think of it as a form of energy overflow. Take werewolves and ordinary humans as an example. Werewolves are stronger, so they must transform into werewolves to display their strength. As for Lycans, they are stronger than werewolves, so their transformation is more ferocious. However, stronger powers than Lycans also need a way out, which gives birth to special abilities.”
“So, only the best of the best among the Lycans have this ability. So, what’s your special ability? You’re so strong, and your beast is the legendary golden wolf. Your special abilities must be amazing.”
I recalled the scene of Michael fighting with others in the forest. Michael was already fierce enough, but other than his extraordinary strength, I didn’t see any other changes in his body.
“I don’t have one.”
Michael surprised me.
“Why not?” My eyes widened. Michael’s strength was the strongest I had ever seen. If Brandon had a special ability, I didn’t think my mate would be worse than him.
Michael smiled. “My reason may be different from the others. My beast’s own strength is much stronger than others. My body is already full from just bearing his power.
“When other people transform, most of them only activate the beast’s power in their bodies so that they can exert it to a greater extent. For me, I need to control it and prevent it from losing its mind and causing irreparable consequences.
“…”
“Do you still not get it?” Michael pondered for a moment and said, “Perhaps you can put it this way. My beast is different from the rest. The power it carries is a special ability, and it is above all beasts and rules. If I have to put it this way, it’s the effect of all attributes.”
I nodded along and curiously asked, “So, I became Lycan because I followed you. Do I have special abilities too?”
“That’s hard to say.” Michael pondered for a moment and replied, “If we were to look at the strength of your power, you wouldn’t be any weaker than any of the Lycans in the palace after receiving my power. However, that isn’t the decisive factor. Also, baby, you’ve only been a Lycan for a short time. Even if you have special abilities, you still need time for it to show.”
“Oh, I was just thinking that if everyone else in the palace had it, but I didn’t, it would be embarrassing,” I said disappointedly.
Michael reached out and put his arm around my shoulder. “No matter if you have special abilities, you are my mate, and I will only love you.”
I smiled at Michael’s confession and leaned on him. “I know. But I still want to prove to others that I am your qualified mate and the most qualified person to stand by your side.”
As Michael and I were planning our next destination, an unexpected letter disrupted all our plans.
This letter was from the newly appointed King, Brandon. After Michael finished reading the letter, he was silent for a long time. From his expression, I could tell that the letter must have mentioned something that would put him in a difficult position.
As expected, Michael quickly told me that General Lovecraft had been dissatisfied since the incident with Joanna.
He had recently allied with some ministers to stop Brandon’s policy. At this juncture, Brandon could not find the right person to deal with this, so he wanted us to return and help.
When I heard the name ‘Joanna’, my heart inevitably skipped a beat.
Even though my rationality told me that this person was already dead and wouldn’t be a threat to me, the shadow she once cast on me would never go away.
For this reason, when Michael tentatively asked me for my opinion on this, I chose to support Michael’s return without much hesitation.
I’d said it before. I was not responsible for Joanna’s death, and I didn’t feel guilty at all. However, all of this started because of me. I couldn’t cause trouble for Brandon because of my personal reasons, especially when he and Courtney did me a huge favor. I was not an ungrateful person.
Michael still looked a little reluctant. “We’ve only been here for a short while, and we’ve already agreed that we’re going to Europe next.”
“We can go anytime. After all, we’ll be together for the rest of our lives. But now, your brother needs you.” I sighed. “I thought you’d be the one to persuade me to go back with you. Now the situation is reversed.”
“He’s the Lycan King, but I’m not. These are all things he should take care of.” Michael toot, “And that old guy doesn’t like us. If we go back, we’ll add fuel to the fire. How can we help Brandon with what he wants to do?”
I thought about it and felt that Michael made sense, but I still insisted, “Since he sent a letter, we should go back and look. If our presence is useless, we can leave the palace anytime.”
