Chapter 1148 Picking A Luna?

Chapter 1148  Picking A Luna?

“Picking my Luna…not this again,” Gary said to himself. He was so startled that he had to take a seat, and Tom did so next to him. He started to remember when the message had first appeared about him selecting a Luna.

At the time, there were some conditions that needed to be followed for the selection of a Luna, but as to why Gary had never picked one, it was because of what a Luna was to a pack.

“What did the message exactly say? Why is he forcing me to pick a Luna? Is it just me, or is this a similar situation to where a father is asking his son when is he going to get married? I’m only 19…or 20. Damn, man, I’m stressed these days; I don’t even know how old I am.”

Tom could see his friend was clearly startled and stressed out by the situation, so he needed to be the voice of reason.

“It’s not that bad,” Tom said. “Your father said in the last fight against Harvor, you should have seen how much of a benefit it was to have your pack near you. Werewolves are unique in the way that they get stronger the closer they are together…unlike others.”

“I can guess what he means by others. Right now, he stated that there is a key difference between you and Lupus; he has a Luna, you don’t.”

Gary remembered when he first had met up with the other Luna, Ylva. She had an undeniable presence and was quite strong. Although she had been hit by Harvor, he was sure someone like her would still be alive.

“But a Luna is like equal to the Alpha of the pack, right? So it’s almost like picking a wife. I can’t get that thought out of my head. Maybe that’s why I’ve put it off for so long as well,” Gary sighed.

“Well, you don’t have to think of it that way,” Tom replied. “Let’s try looking at it this way. It’s someone that’s going to help you lead the pack and its responsibilities. They are going to have a title nearly equal to yours.

“So it doesn’t have to be someone you’re in love with or anything like that, but it does have to be someone you trust and can work with side by side.”

There were two people that came to mind when Gary thought about this. The first one was Kai. He worked side by side with him; if he could, he would have made him Luna of the pack in a heartbeat.

That wasn’t an option, though, according to the Werewolf System, as the Luna had to be a female Werewolf, and here was the second problem to the whole situation.

The other person who came straight to Gary’s mind was Xin. A person who was a strong Altered fighter, a person willing to do things on her own without the need to help others, and it definitely was a person he trusted.

Equally, Gary was sure of it as well; it was his first love and current love. When he was in school, it started off as a simple attraction to her, and he thought maybe it was just a stupid crush, but that crush did grow.

As he spent more time with her, as the two kept on meeting up with each other time and time again, he felt the two were linked in the world together. Naturally, he felt like he would do anything for her, and that was perhaps the time he knew it was real.

Just being around Xin was easy; it didn’t make it hard, and he would rather have her by his side than not.

But Xin was not a Werewolf; she was an Altered, so she wasn’t an option that could be selected.

“So that leaves me with Olivia or Marie?” Gary said out loud, in the middle of his thoughts, but there was another issue to it all. The system stated that the Luna had to be of the same Rank as Gary.

Right now, both Olivia and Marie were at the Rook Grade. They had upgraded themselves without the need for pawn points to be selected. Gary imagined it was due to the immense amount of fighting they had been through, among other things.

However, Gary was at King Grade. At the time, it would have been easier to upgrade one individual and add it to be the same grade as him, but now it was difficult.

‘I’m sure I have enough pawn points to upgrade one of them to Queen. I’m not even sure if one can be upgraded to King Grade. Maybe King Grade is reserved only for Alphas. I would guess based on the quests I’ve gotten.

‘But still, they would at least have to be at the Queen Grade, right?’

Then it hit Gary; there was another option to the whole thing. Gary had a new skill, his new Alpha bite. Before, every Werewolf he turned would do so at a higher Grade depending on his own Grade.

That was why it was important for him to increase his own Grade. To make sure Werewolves followed his order and being able to create more powerful ones.

Due to the high success rate, he now had more options; he could turn other people. ‘If that’s the case…I guess there are also those like maybe…’

Gary’s eyes lingered over to his family, and that’s where he could see White standing along with the others. There was the need for possibly more pack members in the first place. Turning her there was a high chance she would already be close to the same grade as Gary.

‘But to drag White into this, when she was living a happy life, it’s not something I can just do. I would have to ask her.’

Gary needed to make sure all of his options were open first, but he wouldn’t force anyone into anything. As he stood up, Gary was ready to leave, until Tom stopped him.

“There is one more thing, Gary…and I think you’ll be happy to hear this. It’s about the Alpha bite…it has a special effect,” Tom said.
