Chapter 74

　　Damon

　　The Trial of the Moon, an ancient rite, held the promise of revelation through a fight to the death among wolves. It was an old way to settle disputes between high-ranking wolves, and the last of its kind was done almost 300 years ago.

　　Romin scoffed dismissively, making light of the tradition. He crossed his arms, leaning back with an air of arrogance, clearly showing his contempt.

　　“The Trial of the Moon? You want to settle this matter through that ancient tradition?” he mocked, his laughter echoing through the stillness.

　　Ex-Delta Erik stood strong in his defense. His shoulders squared and chin lifted, showing his unwavering determination despite the seriousness of the situation.

　　“Why not? If that is the only way for your treachery to be discovered. Under this trial, the moon goddess will surely favor that one that is telling the truth. And I am confident that after this, Damon will emerge victorious.”
