Unserious Beast Tamer

[Additional update 9/10 for the sound of light spring flowing in the Silver Alliance]

"Xi Lv?" (Is this where the beast master sleeps?)

His eyes followed Xu Ran's back as he disappeared at the end of the stairs. Xingchen, who had not been to the second floor yet, became curious.

"Meow~" (Xu Ran and I both sleep upstairs.)

After washing and grooming, Ziyun, who looked brand new, raised her butt and tail high, stretched her two front paws straight forward, and made a stretching movement.

Does the eldest sister live up there too?

There was a bit more envy in Xingchen's eyes.

Although there is a large area on the underground floor that belongs to it, it has just made a contract with Xu Ran, and its heart is full of closeness to Xu Ran. If it can sleep with Xu Ran, it must be a wonderful experience.

Of course, Xingchen also knows that this is not easy to achieve.

After all, it is too big and will grow even bigger in the future, unlike its elder sister who is relatively small.

Ziyun's heart moved when she noticed that Xingchen had been looking in the direction of the second floor with curiosity in her eyes.

"Meow?" (How about I take you up there to have a look?)

"Xi Lv?" (Can it be done?)

There was a little more surprise in Xingchen's eyes.

Ziyun tilted his head and thought for a moment, then nodded affirmatively.

Although the space upstairs is small, it is still no problem for the stars to fit in. Although it cannot make it run, it is not enough to live up there, but just going up to take a look, it is obviously no problem.

Jumping lightly to the stairwell to the second floor, Ziyun turned his head and glanced at the stars, lowered his voice slightly, and spoke softly.

"Meow~" (Please step softly, the beast master is probably already meditating, we can't wake him up!)

"Xilu!" (Understood!)

Xingchen understood, also lowered his voice, and followed Ziyun on tiptoe.

The two pet beasts, one big and one small, quietly followed the stairs from the first floor to the second floor, and soon arrived at Xu Ran's bedroom.

On the bed in the bedroom, Xu Ran was sitting cross-legged and had entered a meditative state with the help of the meditation accelerator card.

Seeing him, the two pet beasts moved a little more gently.

Ziyun stopped talking, stretched out a paw and waved at the star, gesturing for it to follow, and then tiptoed to the egg in front of the bedside table.

what is that?

Following Ziyun's movements, Xingchen's attention shifted from Xu Ran to the bedside table.

That seems to be an egg?

It has become an extraordinary creature and can sense the life fluctuations transmitted from the egg.

It stepped out quietly.

"Dang~"

The hard horse's hoof touched the wooden floor of the bedroom and made a slight sound. Xingchen was so frightened that he quickly raised his hoof, and then lowered it with a lighter movement.

Walking cautiously to the egg, Xingchen curiously put his head up and sniffed the scent on the egg with a curious look in his eyes.

"Xi Lv?" (What kind of egg is this?)

It lowered its voice and spoke carefully, worried about waking up Xu Ran who was meditating, and worried about scaring the little life that was still hatching in the egg.

"Meow~" (It may be our future companion~)

With a smile in her eyes, Ziyun gently placed a paw on the eggshell, glanced at Xu Ran who was still in a meditative state and had not been awakened, and then whispered about it and Xu Ran. The process of obtaining this beast egg.

Hearing that Ziyun and Xu Ran were advertising in the challenge together to attract more customers to the store, Xingchen had a little smile in his eyes and found it quite interesting.

Hearing that when Ziyun was still at the Transcendent level, he and Xu Ran defeated the Frost Wolf, and even defeated the Dark Scale Dragon, which was more powerful than the Frost Wolf, Xingchen couldn't help but feel a bit of envy and yearning in his eyes.

Unfortunately, it was not involved in these moments.

But thinking about the future, following Xu Ran, it will definitely experience more interesting things with its companions, and the envy in Xingchen's eyes gradually turned into expectation.

It followed Ziyun's example, gently raised a hoof, and placed the hoof surface that had been polished smooth by Xu Ran like a gem on the egg, sending its own blessing.

It also wants to meet the new companion hatched from this beast egg as soon as possible!

As if sensing a different aura and goodwill from the stars, the flashing frequency of the patterns on the surface of the beast egg accelerated a bit, seeming to be a response to the two pet beasts.

After the two pets got along for a while, Ziyun and Xingchen carefully exited the room. Then, under Ziyun's leadership, Xingchen visited other locations in the rest area on the second floor.

Bathroom, bathroom, study room…

Although they are all ordinary furnishings, Xingchen is particularly interested in them because they have the atmosphere of burning life.

After walking out of the bedroom, Ziyun's voice became slightly louder. Seeing Xingchen's curiosity, it began to share interesting things that happened between itself and Xu Ran.

For example, when it first saw Xu Ran entering the bathroom to take a bath, it thought Xu Ran was in danger and almost blew the bathroom door open. For example, when Xu Ran was reading in the study, its favorite thing was to jump to Xu Ran's door. Sleep on your lap.

Speaking of this, Ziyun couldn't help crying.

hateful! After it gets bigger, it can't easily lie on Xu Ran's lap!

When will the miniaturization skill be available?

"Meow~" (Let's go to the foster care area!)

After visiting the entire second floor, Ziyun shook his tail.

"Xilu!" (Okay!)

Xingchen reluctantly glanced in the direction of the bedroom, then followed Ziyun and tiptoed downstairs.

The two pet beasts quickly followed the passage through the back door and arrived at the foster care area on the basement floor.

Ziyun, who came to the foster care area, was also not idle. He took Xingchen with him to the area where other residents lived, and introduced his neighbors to Xingchen.

"Meow~" (That's Uncle Steel-Armored Rhinoceros. He is the earliest resident of the store. He loves to play in the mud. Please stay away from him.)

"Meow~" (There was a shadow-hunting lizard of the dark type before, but it has already left its beast master, otherwise they must have a common language.)

"Meow~" (That's a golden-striped ant. It eats twelve meals a day, but after coming here, it often eats several meals at once secretly.)

"Meow~" (You already know that frost wolf, it's a bit silly, we don't know it the same way.)

“…”

Xingchen only met these neighbors who were about to get along for a long time when they had dinner together in the evening, and did not have much impression on most of them.

Through Ziyun's familiar introduction, he gradually got to know the personalities, habits and temperaments of these neighbors, and naturally became more sympathetic to the place where he was about to live.

And with Ziyun's greeting, the residents who were fostered here also knew that this guy who occupied a large area when he first arrived was not a new resident here, but the boss's new pet.

They did not dare to easily offend Xu Ran, the person who fed them every day. Even the most aggressive ones among the residents gave up the idea of ​​causing trouble for Xingchen.

Finally, Ziyun brought the star to the dark night environment that belonged to it, stood upright and patted the star gently with its claws.

"Meow~" (Go to bed early, see you tomorrow!)

"Xilulu!" (See you tomorrow!)

Looking at the eldest sister who turned to leave, Xingchen's eyes were full of intimacy and gratitude. It wasn't until Ziyun's figure disappeared on the underground floor that it turned around and walked step by step into the dark night.

Ziyun, who returned to the second floor, entered the bedroom softly, jumped on Xu Ran's bedside, picked up a corner of the quilt familiarly, covered Xu Ran from the waist down, and then got into it, feeling Xu Ran's familiar feeling. breath and close your eyes with satisfaction.

sleep!

——

"I was careless."

Early the next morning, Xu Ran sat on the bedside and listened to Ziyun proudly talk about how he took care of the stars last night, then he patted his head in annoyance.

In his expectation, it would be enough for the star to prepare a place for it to live after contracting with it and wash it once.

But he ignored that Xingchen and Ziyun were different at first.

Ziyun was originally a stray cat. When he came to the store, he considered it his home and quickly adapted to it. However, Xingchen originally lived in a horse and animal breeding base with his own parents and friends.

Suddenly changing the environment, although Xingchen didn't show it, he still felt a little unaccustomed and unsteady in his heart.

It was Ziyun who was keenly aware of Xingchen's hidden emotions. After meditating, he took it to get familiar with the foster care area and the living area on the second floor again.

"Well done, I'll add a blue dove's legs to you later!" Xu Ran patted Ziyun's head and said with a smile.

The blue pigeon is part of the raw material source of the food provided by the system to Ziyun. It is an extraordinary creature of the water system.

It lives in the coastal area and is not found in Qingzhou City. The blue pigeon feeds on sea fish. Its meat tastes like chicken, but there is a faint fishy smell.

The legs of the blue pigeon are currently one of Ziyun's favorite foods.

"Meow!" (Yeah!)

Hearing that there was an extra meal, Ziyun's eyes instantly became a little more excited.

"Let's go down and look at the stars." Xu Ran jumped out of bed, quickly washed and dressed, and took Ziyun downstairs with him.

"Xilulu!"

In the foster care area, Xingchen let out an excited neigh, like a shadow in the dark night, and quickly came in front of Xu Ran, lowered his head and rubbed Xu Ran's palms and cheeks excitedly.

"morning!"

Xu Ran patted Xingchen's neck and began to prepare food for the two pet beasts and other residents in the foster care area in an orderly manner.

After some feeding, the two pet beasts were sent to their respective training areas for a new day of six-hour training, while Xu Ran returned to the foster care shop and opened for business.

An ordinary day at Xinghuo Nursing Home starts from now on.

——

"Boss, boss, here I come!"

Su Xiaoxiao's energetic voice came from outside the store, already a day later.

Xu Ran stood up from behind the counter not long after opening the door, with a smile on his face, "Here he comes."

"Boss, is this skin care really free?" Su Xiaoxiao hugged Yanhuo Fox and couldn't help but confirm again.

"Of course." Xu Ran nodded without hesitation, "But since you got the ranking, you have to help me advertise."

"Well...I'll try my best to get into the top three!" Su Xiaoxiao said seriously.

"Top three?" Xu Ran was dumbfounded, "I think you and Yanhuo Fox have a chance of taking first place."

"That's too difficult." Su Xiaoxiao sighed, "Although your washing and care skills are really good, Boss Xu, appearance is only one of the criteria for judging the beauty pageant. There are many strong opponents in this competition. .”

"You will know after I finish washing." Xu Ran did not say that the washing and care in the store had been upgraded. I believe that when the washing and care are completed and the results are seen, Su Xiaoxiao will naturally know where his confidence in her comes from. .

"By the way, how many rounds are there in the beauty pageant?" Suddenly thinking of something, Xu Ran paused and turned to look at Su Xiaoxiao.

"There is only one round." Su Xiaoxiao spread his hands, "Although this kind of competition is a city-wide competition, it is actually just a small competition, not so big, but it is a good honor for individuals. "

"But beast masters who are interested in pet care and care will basically pay attention!" Su Xiaoxiao quickly added as if she was worried that Xu Ran felt that advertising was not cost-effective and would take his own money.

"Is there only one round... That's okay." Xu Ran nodded with some regret, "Do you want to accompany me to do the cleaning?"

"No, no!" Su Xiaoxiao waved her hand without hesitation, "I'll just wait outside!"

Although Boss Xu's cleaning effect was really good, the process was too embarrassing. After this first experience, she didn't dare to go in and accompany him easily.

"No problem." Xu Ran carried Yan Huohu into the nursing room with a calm expression.

After a while, a strange sound came from the bathroom that made people blush.

"嘤~~~"

Su Xiaoxiao, who was sitting in the lounge eating potato chips, couldn't help but stamp her feet when she heard the familiar voice. She felt like there were nails on the seat and felt uncomfortable all over.

It’s so weird!

And I don’t know why, but I always feel that Xiao Huo Miao makes a sound faster and louder this time than before?

While Su Xiaoxiao was restless, the bathing ended quickly. Looking at Yanhuo Fox, who followed Xu Ran out of the bathing room with erratic steps, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard the sound and got up.

Um?

etc!

Su Xiaoxiao has experienced the cleaning service of Yanhuo Fox several times at Xinghuo Nursing Home. She has become somewhat resistant to Yanhuohu's incredible appearance after cleaning.

But what is this little guy in front of me who is too beautiful to be a human creature?

It was as if the gods had plucked a bunch of sunset glow and shaped it into the shape of a fox. Each of the slender and gradual hairs of the Flame Fire Fox in front of him flashed with crystal color under the light.

The big fluffy tail is as light as mist, and its slight swing is like clouds swaying gently in the wind.

The short black and golden hair around the eyes is smooth and slender, shining under the light, giving Yanhuo Fox's beautiful eyes like bloodstone a beautiful eyeliner.

This kind of appearance is simply... simply...

Su Xiaoxiao felt that she could no longer describe it in words.

"Didn't I tell you before that the store has been upgraded and renovated." Xu Ran smiled, "By the way, the washing and care services have also been upgraded for free."

"This is the effect of the current cleaning service." Xu Ran paused, "So now, do you think you and Yanhuo Fox have hope of winning the first place?"

"There must be!" Su Xiaoxiao came back to her senses and spoke decisively.

Appearance is only part of the judging criteria. I, Su Xiaoxiao, will tell everyone today that appearance is justice!
