Ookami to Koushinryou summary
Holo is a powerful wolf deity celebrated and worshiped in the small town of Pasloe to bless the annual harvest. But as the years pass and the villagers become more self-sufficient, Holo, who describes herself as the “Wise Wolf of Yoitsu,” has become a mere folk tale. When a traveling merchant named Kraft Lawrence stops by Pasloe’s, Holo offers to become his business partner if he can finally bring her to his northern home in Yoitsu.
The shrewd merchant recognizes Holo’s unusual ability to judge a person’s character and accepts her suggestion. Lawrence, who now has both strong business skills and a charismatic negotiator, is getting closer to his goal of opening his own business. However, as Lawrence travels the countryside with Holo in search of economic opportunity, he begins to realize that his aspirations are slowly morphing into something unexpected.
