Reincarnated As A Wolf With Cheats

"I have no interest in making you my subordinate.", Shin said.

"…"

The serpent became quiet all of a sudden. He thought that all-powerful beasts capable of reasoning wanted subordinates so that they could be safe and protected.

He was right, Shin was the same too, but he realized that one shouldn't take advantage of others suffering.

"Then, what do you want me to do?"

"You wouldn't be helping me for free, would you know?", the serpent asked.

Shin nodded his head, "You are right."

"Nothing is free in this world.", he said.

"But what I am going to ask is very simple."

"I am ready to do anything if I can be freed.", the serpent said.

"…", it then became quiet for some time.

None of them said anything. Perhaps Shin was thinking about what to say.

The serpent kept staring at Shin while waiting for him to tell.

"Just three times, I want you to help me three times in the future.", Shin said.

"…"

"That's all…?", the serpent asked.

"Yes.", Shin nodded his head.

"Really? Is that really all?", the serpent asked yet again.

"Yeah, I am asking you to help me thrice. Nothing more and nothing less."

After hearing this the serpent said, "That is equal to nothing!"

"It's as if you are agreeing to help me in free.", the serpent said.

"I was ready to even trade my soul but all you are asking is for my help three times?"

"Do I have to speak in some other language for you to understand?", Shin asked.

"Ah, no. I mean-", the serpent was baffled by the proposal because it was advantageous to him.

"Just tell me, do you accept or not?", Shin asked.

"Of course I accept it. Why wouldn't I?", the serpent accepted it almost immediately when Shin asked.

"Cool, but I'm unsure if I can dispel the curse entirely." – Shin mentioned the most important part at the end.

"Eh? What do you mean?"

"Well, my power is also limited so I can only dissolve a part of the curse. But I think that much would be enough to let you break free and go wherever you want.", Shin said.

"…"

The serpent was fine with that. The curse that he received was a major one – he had received it from one of the celestials.

Earlier, when the forest was being raided by many humans, and many beasts were being killed, he took the role to kill the humans.

Not to mention, he slaughtered almost 5,000 humans and ate them as if they were nothing. The Human Celestial of that time put a curse on the snake that not only shackled most of his power but also made him unable to get out of its territory.

If he was let loose, he would have definitely become one of the sacred beasts, however since he was stuck in one place, he couldn't do much and just wait for his death just like Terran.

Shin did realize what he was going to do, he was going to break free a dangerous beast.

How did he know? Well, the system was warning him again and again continuously without any rest.

*Ding*

[ Warning ]

[ The system advises the host to not free the serpent Raka ]

[ The system advises the host to not free the serpent Raka ]

[  The system advises the host to not free the serpent Raka ]

[ The system… ]

Regardless of that, he used his skills to dispel a part of his curse. But he wanted to see if he could dispel his entire curse, so he asked the system, 'Is my curse powerful enough to dispel his entire curse?'

*Ding*

[ Affirmative ]

[ Warning ]

[ The system… ]

'Ugh, I'm tired of hearing them. Mute!'

'But anyway, I won't remove the curse entirely.', Shin knew what he was doing.

He was not going to trust some random snake that he met. He would still keep some hidden things so that the snake doesn't out-wit him. Therefore, only after winning Shin's entire trust would Raka be freed since Shin would completely erase the curse once he trusts him.

The system was muted and now only pop-ups were seen. Shin neglected them and focused on Raka – the name mentioned by the system.

"Alright so, let me start.", Shin said.

"Yes.", Raka closed his eyes expecting the miracle to happen as soon as he opened his eyes.

*Ding*

[ You have used the skill Curse Eraser ]

[ The curse on the target will be erased partially ]

The second notification was because of what Shin had planned earlier.

And yes, he could control to what extent he wanted to erase the curse as long as he can erase it completely.

There were two reasons because of which he didn't want to erase the curse completely.

One – because he wanted to keep Raka in check.

Two – because he was conducting an experiment.

He wanted to know what were the conditions under which other races were being transformed into a wolf. Since Terran turned into a wolf after his curse was partially erased, he wondered if it would be the same with the snake as well.

And to his surprise, he was right.

It took no more than 2 minutes right after which Shin said, "Ah, you can open your eyes now."

*Ding*

[ 40% of the curse on target has been erased ]

[ 60% of curse remains due to which the target will go under a certain transformation related to the host ]

The large snake that previously existed was no more. In place of it, a young wolf with blue fur sat with its eyes closed.

As he slowly opened his eyes, he found that his level of vision had increased. Also, he started feeling weird since this was the first time that he could smell and hear so extraordinarily.

'I knew it!'

'Heck yes, the experiment was a success.'

Shin smirked and asked, "What do you think? How do you look right now?"

"What do you-?", Raka paused.

His own voice surprised him because he could hear the voice much more clearly and loudly.

"Just, what did you do to me?"

"…"
