Reincarnated As A Wolf

CHAPTER 1

The night is gloomy, yet Cruella finds joy within. She finds solace in listening to the sounds of the rain hitting the roof, the crackle of thunder, and the bright lights reflecting in the curtains from the flashes of lightning outside. It was like a lullaby on her darkest nights.

"I just wish I wasn't born in this world," she murmured and sighed deeply. Her eyes were devoid of emotion as she stared at nothing in particular.

"Why is the world so dumb?"

"Everything is stupid!"

"Ah, I want to disappear in this instant!"

At the same time she uttered those words, a thunderous crackle in the sky echoed nonstop that frightened most people. They wondered if the gods above were having a battle or if someone cursed something that angered the gods.

However, this is not the case in Cruella's mind. She laughed bitterly as she opened the window and looked up at the dark sky which constantly flashed lightning. "Even the gods agreed with me. Heh, you also think the world is dumb, right?"

Again, the thunder rolled like it answered Cruella's question.

Cruella laughed like her mind had gone demented.

A sudden banging on her door interrupted her moment of insanity which displeased her so much.

She swallowed her displeasure and asked in a hoarse voice, "Who's there?"

"Open the door, Cruella." A commanding voice echoed outside. It sounds threatening or at least that's what she interprets.

Cruella froze for a moment and walked toward the door as her hand turned the doorknob hesitantly.

"What took you so long to open the goddamn door?!"

A huge, disheveled middle-aged woman complained as she trotted inside her room, looking very displeased and her face scrunched up in an ugly manner.

Cruella just stood there behaving like a statue.

The middle-aged woman glared at Cruella and said monotonously, "Tomorrow is the last day. I reckon you already know the consequences if you bailed on this."

Cruella's heart sank into the bottomless abyss like there was a huge black hole sucking her chest again. She nodded her eyes downcast. "I know... You can rest assured that I won't run away."

"Good." The middle-aged woman stared at Cruella's face intently and said, "You know... You inherited your mother's good genes. Unfortunately, your existence is a mistake."

Cruella's eyes turned cold at the mention of her mother.

16 years had passed yet she had never seen her mother's face.

According to the middle-aged woman in front of her, she looks like her mother like a spitting image.

However, her mother dumped her the moment she was born and left her struggling alone in this cruel world.

The middle-aged woman snorted and left her room.

Cruella closed the door and twisted the lock. She dragged her feet lazily and sat in front of the vanity as she saw her pale face in the mirror. She doesn't even recognize herself and feels peculiar about it.

Ever since she was born, she felt completely different and that something was wrong with her thinking because she always viewed the world as dumb and meaningless.

Suddenly, a continuous crackling of thunder bellowed angrily in the sky, hitting randomly making everyone scared witless.

Until... the lightning hit Cruella's room and directly hit the mirror into a million pieces, rendering Cruella shocked and speechless.

Her eyes widened in disbelief as the current also hit her body, and electrocuted her senseless.

Instead of fear, her heart exploded in happiness expelling the tremendous pain she felt at that moment.

Is she finally going to die? Did the gods finally hear her prayers?

She felt relief as she felt she was near her death's door.

'What is death? Death is nonsense!'

'Will I finally be free?' She thought as a sense of comfort flooded her heart and her mind finally relaxed for the first time.

Her consciousness slowly faded away and fell into a deep slumber.

Unbeknownst to Cruella, her death was accidental and the gods didn't pay attention to her time of death. They completely overlook the matter as they never thought someone would be struck with lightning unintentionally.

Cruella is right about one thing, death is nonsense when it comes to the reason for her death.

Cruella was unfortunate as her name suggests—it's cruel. If she knew this would happen, she would curse the gods to death.

At this moment, Cruella's soul was floating in the void, her eyes tightly shut, but there was a serene expression on her pale face. Her long silver-red hair which was wavy and silky swayed gracefully, opposite to her previous appearance.

She has the appearance of a fairy—so gentle and delicate. Her skin was soft and sparkled like porcelain glass. Her beauty is out of this world.

Suddenly, a bright small figure as big as a fist cackled in the distance traveling at a fast speed but slowed down after noticing a slender figure.

"Oh, what a poor soul you are," it said sympathetically. The small figure examined Cruella's soul a few times and grimaced. "Ah, there's such a thing! Poor child!"

"Well, since I'm in a good mood this time, I will grant you a second chance..."

However, the small figure didn't move for a moment while repeatedly sighing dramatically.

After a while, the small figure burst out an immense blinding light toward Cruella and immediately wrapped her like a cocoon.

At the last moment, Cruella opened her eyes slightly and she vaguely saw a blurry small figure in front of her. She wanted to see the figure clearly, but her eyelids drooped heavily and her consciousness slowly faded again.

Before she fell unconscious, she managed to utter in a low voice, "Who are you?"

Her voice is so small yet the small figure still caught on and she vaguely heard a voice say, "I am one of the forgotten guardians in this void. I saw you wandering here in the void. You shouldn't have been here at all.

Your soul should have been long disappeared into nothingness upon entering the void. But here you are intact and dangerous. What are you really? Well, since fate brought us together and I discovered you first,

it's my responsibility to send you back since we are not in the jurisdiction of the goddess of reincarnation. It's also impossible for me to send you there or I might be falsely accused of your unexpected death. So I could only reincarnate you by myself."

"Don't worry, I will grant you a healthy body and you have my blessing. However, I could only reincarnate you as an animal. So please don't blame me."

"Now then, I wish you a good life ahead, Miss Cruella..."

Then, Cruella's soul turned into a ray of light and flew into the void, entering a crack and traveling into dimensional space. In the middle of it all, an unexpected phenomenon happened, there's a small black hole appeared in the void and sucked Cruella's soul.

However, as luck would have it, what happened was reversed. Cruella's soul was the one sucking the small black hole instead.

The mysterious small figure overlooks one thing about Cruella. It didn't notice the bottomless black hole inside Cruella's chest that would devour everything in the world. It was awakened the moment another black hole appeared and tried devouring it.

But it all happened in a flash and Cruella wasn't even aware of it and her soul traveled by millions of miles after miles until she arrived at her destination.

Cruella slowly fluttered her eyes open and a gasp escaped her mouth. She blink her eyes to adjust her sight. She looked around and saw tall trees and lush green. Wind blowing the leaves gently.

She tried voicing out her thoughts but she found she couldn't speak a word. She only made strange sounds like it belonged to an animal.

She tried pinching her face to see if she was dreaming or not. However, what baffled her was seeing her hands become paws.

She was so shocked and screamed at the top of her lungs. But what came out of her mouth was a loud growl.

"What am I?"

"Did I become an animal?!"

"What the hell?!!!"

Grahhh!

A roar suddenly came from behind her. Her eyes widened and was scared witless when she spotted a huge bear with red eyes. It looks at her with fire blazing in its eyes. It was so scary that she almost pissed herself.

She suddenly got cold feet and stared back at the huge bear. It was her first time seeing a huge monster and felt scared. It's ridiculous to think that she wasn't even afraid of death yet she was scared witless by a monster?

Cruella laughed ironically.

Suddenly, an icon appeared in front of her and her eyes sparkled in excitement.

"Was I reincarnated into another world and have a unique skill like in the game? Ah, I love this life! Hahaha!"

"Ha-ha! This is too amazing! I feel like I cheated or something! I'm this powerful?!"

"Wait, what?! I am a wolf? I was reincarnated as a wolf?"

Cruella gaped in surprise. For a moment, she forgot she was about to be devoured whole by a monster.

She snapped in her daze when the monster roared. She smirked and glared menacingly at the huge bear.

Cruella opened her mouth and a purple light appeared.

The huge bear stared at Cruella in horror and wanted to escape upon sensing the immense power. But it's too late because its body was slowly devoured by Cruella.
