"Still not working?" Thinking of her pet, Anya, sitting in the car, felt a little irritated, mainly because its growth was too slow.
It's been more than half a year, and after eating so many light-type monsters, he's still only level 25. We don't even know if he's mastered light magic yet. This little guy has always been a bit slow.
This legendary pet, on which the God King had placed high hopes, was indeed somewhat unworthy of its title; she even regretted terminating the contract with the original pet.
She tried many methods, but the little guy was still the same. She had even thought of trying to find a solution from the slime.
Could it be that killing his mother back then had some negative consequences?
At that time, their fleet was indeed unable to capture a fully grown, pregnant, multi-legged demon child alive. Its formidable fighting ability nearly destroyed that exploration fleet.
I finally found out that there are monsters that can communicate with humanoid pets, but then I encountered this situation.
"Could it be that the child's consciousness has not yet taken shape?" Thinking of Princess Caitlin's fairy and the snow just now, Anya realized that her own pet did not have that kind of spirituality.
As for the black slime, she couldn't figure it out.
"Is awakening my spirit the only option? I have to go to the Orc Empire. I really don't want to see that annoying woman!"
Inside the Duke's mansion.
Caitlin contacted her father directly and shared her findings and speculations.
"Could it be that the sea creatures provided it? The Haifir Empire has always had business dealings with them."
"I don't think so. The sea creatures wouldn't easily provoke the multi-legged demon child."
“Your Majesty, Ellie’s pet has confirmed that Anya’s baby is premature, and could only have been born directly from the mother’s womb,” the Duke reiterated the key points of the conversation.
"Oh, I forgot about that. I'll send someone to investigate what's going on over there. Did they capture any footage?"
"Yes, Father."
"That's good. You can enjoy your time there for a few more days. I'll ask the secret agents and the people in Holy Sea City to investigate." After saying that, the magical communication was cut off.
The two exchanged a glance and relaxed. In any case, at least the empire had taken notice.
"So, that slime has done it again?" the Duke joked with a smile.
"Yes, I didn't expect them to come knocking on my door. You can decide on the reward yourself; I'm going back now."
The Duke was troubled, thinking about what his wife had told him yesterday. Nothing he could offer now would be as valuable as the Ink Spirit Marrow.
If all else fails, ask that slime; we also need to hurry up and get our hands on the martial arts skills.
Inside the study.
Xianxian is already trying to use water elements to form fonts in front of her eyes. Although they are just individual fonts, the results are already very good.
Toria watched with envy. A pet that can read and communicate can't simply be treated as a pet, especially since the little girl is so cute.
Then, to her astonishment, the three pets began to communicate in an unusual way.
Xiaoxue wrote with snowflakes, Xianxian replied with water splashes, and then the slime directly condensed words inside its blue belly.
Wow, I'm so envious~
"Toria, what's wrong?" Caitlin walked in and saw her best friend looking distressed as she stared at her playing pet.
"Your Highness, they can communicate through writing! I'm so envious!"
"Really? That's great news. I wanted to teach Xianxian to read before, but she was very reluctant."
Sure enough, of the three little ones, only Xianxian was a bit slow to react, but she was smiling happily.
"Your Highness, why don't we take them all to the capital? That way, Xianxian will have some company," Toria suggested. "With Ellie and Daisy's talents, they'll definitely have no problem getting into the Holy Capital Magic and Martial Arts Academy."
Upon hearing these words, Xianxian immediately ran over and looked at her master with longing eyes.
"Well, let me ask the Duke and Ellie for their opinions first, and we also need the academy's approval." Caitlin held Xianxian's little hand, not refusing outright.
"Going to the capital? Isn't that too early? I've heard there are many underground cities and secret realms there. But my current strength is still not enough."
"I need to break through level 30 at least, otherwise I'll just get beaten up if I go there." Luo Fan thought to himself, not particularly tempted.
The situation over there is definitely more complicated than in Sacred Heart City. Here, at least the president, the duke, the principal, and even the city lord are all on our side. Over there, we can only rely on this little girl, Xianxian, who is too unreliable.
"Brother Fan, let's go to the capital! No one will dare to bully you." Xianxian ran over and picked up Luo Fan.
"Xianxian, don't worry, I will definitely go in the future. Xue'er and I are still too weak. We'll come to play with you after we break through to level 30 or above."
"Yes, Xianxian should also work hard in her cultivation." Xianxian is already level 41, but her height is about the same as Xiaoxue, who is level 28. After being tempered in the Heart-Questioning Secret Realm, the distance they can communicate with has also increased.
It wasn't until evening that Ellie finally opened her eyes.
Upon seeing Luo Fan beside him, he immediately sat up, ready to beat him up. However, because he was too hungry, he slumped back down.
"Aili, you're finally awake! You don't know, you've been asleep for three days and three nights!" Luo Fan said irritably, not expecting his master to remember what happened before she fell asleep.
"Three days have passed?" Ellie looked at Daisy beside her.
"No, it's only been a day and a night. Ellie, are you hungry? Here's some cake!"
"Ugh, I'm really hungry!" After taking the cake and eating it, Ellie glared at Luo Fan fiercely, her eyes filled with a look that said she wouldn't let him off the hook.
"By the way, the invitation this morning?"
“That princess has already been here. I can’t communicate with her pet, so she’s left. Ellie, you need to be careful in the future. I suspect that the Temple of Gods and Demons capturing you before was probably related to her,” Luo Fan blurted out, his survival instincts running high.
"Huh?" Ellie was stunned, completely unexpected that Luo Fan would make such a guess.
Daisy thought her best friend had choked, so she quickly handed her a glass of water.
"I noticed very faint traces of ghost bat blood on that pet, which I guess means it was treated with some kind of drug."
"What should we do?" Ellie gulped down a glass of water, and her hunger was immediately relieved.
"Just avoid provoking her for now. Also, improve your strength as soon as possible."
"All right!"
Hearing Luo Fan's words, Xiao Xue, who was standing next to him, also became somewhat serious and unconsciously ate an ice-type crystal core.
"By the way, Ellie, the princess might suggest that you go to the capital with her. Don't agree to that for now, and you should also try to persuade Daisy not to go."
"Why? Doesn't the capital city have far more resources?"
"You're so incompetent, going over there now would be suicide, wouldn't it? I remember your mother's family lives there, you two probably don't get along, right?"
Ellie didn't speak. She remembered that her mother had been kicked out of the family a long time ago, just like herself now.
"So, why are you going so early? To see your fiancé? Too bad he's already broken off the engagement."
"I have no intention of doing that!"
"That's good. Going to that dangerous place now won't do us any good. Isn't it better to stay here and develop peacefully?"
"Could it be that there's more to the story?" Luo Fan asked tentatively.
"Grandma Daisy's hometown is in the capital. I heard her mention it a long time ago, so~"
"Okay, why don't you ask her for her opinion? Maybe she has her own thoughts too."
"Hmm~"
