Reincarnated As A Lion In Another World-Chapter 75: King Kael

The cave entrance of the inside-pond cave was crowded this evening.

Kael stood on a boulder by the cave entrance, his arms were behind him and his broad chest was pushed out. His burly muscular form was bare and filled with the aura of strength.

His golden-blonde hair swayed from the gentle breeze and his sharp chin was elevated. His beautiful golden eyes stared at the faraway sun that was about to set over the horizon.

He could see multitudes of trees from above where he stood and as far as he could see, there was nothing but green.

His tail hit the ground abruptly, gaining the attention of his audience. Looking down, he saw the wolves and lionesses gathered on the wide flat ground in front of the cave.

The smell of this cave’s former inhabitant, the water snake, was still present. But no one was bothered about it because it was the most trivial thing right now.

"Greetings Wolves!" Kael said with his telepathic voice louder than ever.

The seventy-odd wolves looked at him with mixed expressions. This was the person who killed their leader after all. If not for Bibi IV’s continuous assurance and the fear of what would happen to them, they would have rebelled.

"I know the events of today have dismayed many of you… I apologize for…"

Kael paused mid-speech. He had begun with a lie and it felt wrong for some reason. He wasn’t talking to humans who needed to be lied to for them to feel better. No, he was standing before wolves, literally and metaphorically.

There was no need to pretend.

"Wolves!

Everything that happened today happened because this is how it is supposed to be.

Bibi III was strong, but I was stronger. The price for losing in this world is death, and he received his reward."

Kael’s words were as audacious as much as they were true.

"Today, your leader has fallen, not because he was weak, but because I am stronger. I do not intend to destroy your clan but to give it purpose, true power. The world outside these lands is ruthless, filled with dangers and opportunities. Alone, you may survive but united under me, we will thrive.

You are fierce hunters, cunning and swift. I see your strength, your loyalty to each other, and your will to fight. Those qualities are why I choose not to destroy you but to lead you. With my might and your unity, we will dominate territories others dare not tread. Together, we will become unstoppable, a force feared and admired by all.

Follow me, and I promise you glory, strength, and survival beyond anything you’ve known. Defy me, and you will face the same fate as your fallen leader. The choice is yours, wolves. Will you cling to the past or rise with me to claim the future?

If you see me unfit to lead you, step forward."

Kael’s gaze was stern as he looked at the wolves. These wolves were going to be his warriors, the ones to pave a bloody path to his conquests.

Being pretentious in front of them would only do more harm than good. It was better to be assertive and display dominance from the very beginning.

In short, he was letting them know who was the boss.

None of the wolves stepped forward to protest. Even the large wolves who had grumbled a lot didn’t step forward.

There was a mix of fear and respect that made the wolves hesitant about whatever action their heart was telling them to take.

As a matter of fact, they now looked at Kael with a bit more respect than they used to.

This didn’t mean that they now accepted him as their leader, it was something that would have to happen over time.

"Since no one wishes to step forward, I will take it as you all being ready for the next step.

You all will be integrated into my kingdom and take your roles in the Wolf Warrior caste.

This may seem limiting to your future potential but I assure you that it is not so. Further details will be explained to you by the Wolf Warrior Commander, Bibi IV.

Bibi IV, step forward."

When Bibi IV heard his name, he quickly stepped forward, half excited and half displeased.

He was excited that Kael acknowledged him as the leader of the wolves. Now those wolves who had bad intentions towards him would not dare to touch him, seeing that Kael was his backer.

But at the same time, this put him in the spotlight, the bad kind. Everyone now knew that he colluded with Kael to kill his father.

Alas, that was one of the prices he had to pay for seizing power forcefully.

"Bibi IV will lead the entirety of the wolf warrior caste, both present and future, until death or I say otherwise.

The Bibi clan will undergo a slow restructuring, I advise you all to take note." Kael said, his words carrying a hidden meaning.

Bibi IV had a small grin on his wolf face, only those close enough would be able to see it.

For someone who had never studied politics, he was quite knowledgeable about how it works after hanging around his father and the pack leaders.

The so-called restructuring was just an excuse for him to remove the wolves who would oppose him or make things difficult for him and replace them.

The tier 2 wolves felt a shiver down their spine. Their loyalty to Bibi III had made them act out and now they risked being ostracized from this new order.

"All bow to King Kael!" Bibi IV shouted at this time.

The wolves looked at each other, and then one of the large wolves bowed his head. Seeing one wolf do it, the others soon began bowing.

The lionesses who stood by the side watched all this with interest. They were like royal consorts disdainfully watching theatrics in the court.

"Disperse the ordinary wolves," Kael ordered Bibi IV suddenly.

Bibi IV immediately looked at one of the fire wolves, "You, lead the wolves to different areas to patrol around the mountain."

The fire wolf was startled at first l, but when he saw the look Kael was giving him, he quickly obliged.

He barked at the wolves, causing them to follow him as he left the premises.

All that were left was the last of the original three fire wolves-Diane had bitten off the neck of one of the fire wolves-, the spirit wolf, and Bibi IV.

The Bibi clan had come here with eight tier 2 wolves. Now all they had left was four and that included Bibi IV.

"You will need to increase the strength of the wolves. We need way more tier 2s than what you guys had before." Kael said.

Bibi IV nodded, even though the deaths of the four tier 2s still had a lot to do with Kael. "Yes my King, but I’m afraid that will take time.

We may have a lot of tier 2s gathered here but the forest is mostly populated by ordinary creatures. Unfortunately, there are only two ways we can awaken their wolf hearts.

Either by luck or by stimulation. The closest form of stimulation we can get is the heart of another creature with similar power levels to a tier 2 wolf. But I am sure you already know that beforehand, my King.

Many of the wolves are not strong enough to hunt down tier 2 creatures unless they hunt in groups. But even then, group hunt is irrelevant if none of the wolves are fast enough to chase after the prey."

Kael nodded, "I know that, that’s why I’m giving you a month. The lionesses will also help you out if needed."

Saying this, Kael brought his hands out from behind his back. Bibi IV and the two other wolves felt their hearts skip a beat when they saw what was in Kael’s hand.

"Father’s heart." Bibi IV muttered.

Kael purposely let the three wolves see the heart, even though he had no intention of giving it to them.

The lionesses also paid close attention to Kael’s actions as he faced them with the heart in his hand.

Diane, Zabita, Priya, Eidel, Ruda, and Olivia. He had to consider the one who would be most useful to him at the moment.

After one month, he planned on taking the mountain in one swoop. For that, he needed the kind of ability that would destroy everything that dared to stand in his way.

There was also the scary aura that sometimes escaped from the mountain peak. This did not deter him though, to him it was just a signal for him to prepare harder.

After thinking some more about his options, he spoke out, "Eidel, this heart is for you."

He could see the sad expressions that came on all their faces. Kael didn’t say anything, he really wished to see them get stronger but for now, he had to be practical.

With a skip in her steps, Eidel went forward to take the heart from Kael’s hand in her mouth.

Kael turned to Bibi IV, "Escort the lionesses to the cave. After that, take command, let the wolves patrol our territory, and complete all the tasks I gave you before."

Bibi IV nodded his head, feeling his heart bleeding from seeing Eidel take the wolf’s heart, but there was nothing he could do.

Kael watched them go down the mountain. After they were out of sight, he walked away, heading in the direction of the bear.

After the fight with Bibi III, everyone left the bear alone. Now that everything was out of the way, Kael felt he should personally pay a visit to this mother bear.

Of course, now that Kael was in a satisfactory mood, he could consider options other than violence.
