The Unknown Link
Seo Joon watched the massive wolf stalk through the darkness, its fur bristling under the pale light. It wasn't just some mindless beast anymore.
It had a system.
His system.
And now, a notification flashed before him.
---
[Command System Holder #2?]
---
His brows furrowed.
Command?
He had never seen this option before.
He tried to control Jang Mi-Rae earlier—nothing. The system didn't grant him authority over those he empowered.
But this wolf…
His finger hovered over the option.
Would it obey?
Or was this a trap?
He pressed it.

[System Holder #2 – Wild Instincts]
Race: Wolf
Status: Active
Loyalty: 5%
Current Thought: "Survive."

Seo Joon's eyes narrowed.
Loyalty?
It was low.
Extremely low.
That meant one thing—it wasn't his ally.
It had no attachment to him.
