Luna was afraid the two would start fighting, so she quickly said, "Um, Rhys, could you let go of Corbin? You're holding onto him so tight, he can't walk properly."
Upon hearing this, Rhys turned his icy snake eyes towards Corbin.
Sure enough, Corbin's wolf face looked rather unpleasant, his silver eyes dark and hinting at the possibility of losing control.
Rhys's eyes flickered slightly, and he released Corbin, returning to his original size, and slithered next to Luna.
Kian Sterling also transformed into his original form, a snow-white fox with nine tails, looking extremely beautiful.
He had been at the back, but now picked up the pace, walking near Luna, with Rhys on one side and him on the other, curiously observing her.
He couldn't understand at all what had changed about this lazy, gluttonous, and exceedingly ugly female.
How did she get the leader's approval to join a hunt?
And even awakened a special ability?
It was truly baffling.
Kian's original form wasn't as frightening as Rhys's; on the contrary, he was very pleasing to the eye, a fluffy ball.
Luna, a sucker for fluffy things, couldn't resist reaching out her hand, wanting to pet him.
The fur looked amazingly soft to touch.
However, before her hand reached, Kian had already jumped away cautiously, distancing himself from her, his eyes cold.
It seemed as if he would be hostile towards her if she dared touch him again.
Luna awkwardly retracted her hand, rubbed her nose, feeling a bit embarrassed.
She seemed to have forgotten that Kian also disliked her and wasn't fond of her touches.
Seeing her retract her hand, Kian made no further moves and only then looked away.
Yet he didn't get close to her again, still keeping a certain distance.
Zeke Veridian also transformed into his original form, a wolf with lush green fur, large in size, almost twice as big as a normal wolf, similar to Corbin.
He had been at the front but now slowed down to walk near Luna, alongside Rhys, Kian, covertly examining her.
The changes in Luna today were too significant, arousing his curiosity.
However, seeing Luna sitting on Corbin's back, occasionally reaching out to touch Kian, his wolf eyes flashed with disdain.
How shameless.
And then he looked away, focusing solely on their course.
Malachi Arcanus did the same, transformed into a pitch-black wolf, walking at the rear, with a cold demeanor and exuding an aura of "do not approach."
He originally thought Luna had improved, but seeing her sitting on Corbin's back trying to pet Kian made him realize he was overthinking.
If Luna knew that merely wanting to pet Kian would earn their dislike, she probably wouldn't have even dared.
The group moved swiftly, covering a long distance from the tribe in just a few minutes.
After over an hour, they arrived in the Tagren Forest.
The trees in Tagren Forest were tall and lush, blocking out the sun, with sunlight scattering down through the gaps, forming dappled patterns.
The forest was extremely quiet, only occasionally disturbed by the sounds of insects and birds, creating an eerie atmosphere.
Yet, for the Beastmen, this was paradise.
Luna sat on Corbin's back, looking around curiously, her eyes full of wonder.
This was her first time in Tagren Forest; even the original owner had never been here, only wandering near the tribe.
Chloe Callahan had been thrown by her to the southwestern Silverpine Forest yesterday, not here, so encountering Chloe seemed unlikely.
But internally, she still didn't let down her guard and asked the system, "System, may I address you this way?"
"Yes."
The system's voice quickly echoed in her mind, "What's the matter, host?"
"Yesterday, when Chloe transmigrated, didn't I secretly throw her into the forest? How's the situation?"
She inwardly asked the system.
Though the female protagonist was from modern times and lacked self-defense skills, with the protagonist's aura, she'd probably be fine.
Indeed, the system replied, "Host, after you threw Chloe into the Silverpine Forest, she did encounter some danger, but fortunately, she was saved at a critical moment by Caleb Manning, a Fifth-rank Beastman from the Winged Tiger Tribe, and has now been taken back to the Winged Tiger Tribe, staying in Caleb's cave."
As expected.
Luna pouted. She recalled that Caleb seemed to be the sixth male protagonist, a Winged Tiger in his original form, and later became one of Chloe's Beast Husbands.
Because of her intervention, these two had met earlier.
Knowing Chloe went to the Winged Tiger Tribe, she didn't bother further.
At least for a while, they wouldn't meet, nor would she easily come in her way.
"System, can you detect if there are any other transmigrators or reborn individuals besides me and Chloe?"
She thought of something and continued asking inwardly.
Since she and Chloe could transmigrate to this world, naturally, others could too.
The system thought the host was quite vigilant—worthy of being its chosen host.
After probing this world, it said, "Besides host and Chloe, currently, no other transmigrators have been detected... Well, there seems to be a reborn one, right in the Winged Tiger Tribe."
"What? There's really someone? Who is it?"
Luna casually asked, not expecting a positive answer, curious about who was reborn in the Winged Tiger Tribe.
The system was silent for a while, seeming to confirm, and then gave her an answer, "It's a female from the Winged Tiger Tribe, Pearl Vance."
"Pearl Vance?"
Luna muttered the name, finding it familiar. After thinking for a while, she remembered it was another villainous female supporting character in the book.
Pearl was the most beautiful female in the Winged Tiger Tribe, who loved Caleb since childhood and always wanted to be his mate.
Caleb, being the sixth male lead, undeniably handsome and incredibly strong, was one of the top young warriors in the Winged Tiger Tribe, comparable to Corbin and Rhys.
It was only natural for numerous females to like him.
It was no surprise that Pearl liked Caleb.
Unfortunately, Caleb didn't like Pearl. After meeting the transmigrated Chloe, he fell in love with her at first sight.
To become Chloe's Beast Husband, he even fought fiercely with Corbin, Rhys, Kian, Zeke, and Malachi.
Eventually, Chloe stopped them, crying with dewy eyes: "Don't fight over me, I'm not worth it; I love each one of you..."
In the end, they all gave in, and she even accepted several more afterwards.
By the story's end, they almost formed a harem, living happily ever after together.
Back to the point, Pearl, as another villainous support character, naturally met a tragic end, akin to the original character being a pair of ill-fated sisters.
Now that Pearl was reborn, she's unlikely to still fancy Caleb.
Considering her previous miserable life, persistently liking Caleb after rebirth would indicate a mental problem.
No matter what, she would surely seek revenge against Chloe.
"System, does Pearl have memories of her previous life?"
Luna thought of something and asked inwardly.
The system internally sighed, "Since she's reborn, obviously, she retains memories."
She appeared embarrassed, realizing she asked a silly question.
With Pearl reborn and retaining past life memories, and Chloe now at the Winged Tiger Tribe, her days there won't be easy.
Nevertheless, it wasn't her business; knowing was enough, so she didn't pursue further questions.
