Taking the form of a seductive girl with wolf ears and a tail, Holo grew tired of harvesting in the countryside and made a deal with the merchant to lend him the cunning of “Holo the Wisewolf” to increase his profits in exchange. Take her along on your trip. What kind of businessman can refuse such an offer? However, Lawrence soon realizes that having an ancient goddess as his companion may be a mixed blessing.
