An unlikely team, Snake and Hamster, put their heads together to escape the pet store on the only day of the year there is no staff; Christmas.

A one-shot for a writing prompt - target length 1k words.

Zhang Yun is a gaming hamster. For a special mission in the Lost Kingdom, he has been a hamster for ten years. To his surprise one day, the game suddenly announces that the server will be permanently going offline just as he's about to complete the mission…

However, at the moment the game goes permanently offline, he actually brings the game system to an alternate world. He also brings along everything in his inventory, including his hundred million summoning scrolls.

Uh?

For a ten-year hamster to become rich overnight, what worries does he have at conquering the alternate world?

Ah, I'm sorry. You're mistaken. I don't want to fight. I just want to be a silent hamster…

Zhang Yun has a habit of hoarding stuff in games. For the sake of a special quest in the game 'Lost Kingdom', he's been hoarding all kinds of items for ten years straight. Just as he's on the verge of completing that quest, suddenly there comes an announcement that the server will be taken offline.
And then, at the moment of shutdown, he's transported into the game world, along with everything in his inventory... including one hundred million summoning scrolls.
Huh?
Ten years hoarding all this loot... every challenge rendered moot?
Ah, but please, don't get the wrong idea. I'm not looking for any trouble--just a quiet little hoarder, nothing more...

In the world of Beast people, there is one rule that needs to be abode by all-- that hierarchy must be preceded. It is a place where strongest predators prey and immortals rule over others, it is only to ensure the balance in the cycle of life.

For Chii, coming from a hamster litter; it isn't an easy life.

Chapter 30
Before heading out Althea packed some dry rations and other necessities. After everything was ready, she summoned Northem.

"Young  Miss, what is your order?", asked Northem who was kneeling on one knee.

"Get up, next time you don't need to kneel before me", said Althea.

Getting up, Northem said, "As you wish Young Miss"

Althea nodded and said,  "I will be going out to train in the mountains for a few days. I will be entrusting my mother's safety in your hands in case if anything happens, understood!"

Northem was slightly taken aback by Althea's words. He knew that Althea will be going out to train but all along he thought that he will be going out with her to ensure her safety because he is well aware of the dangers lurking in the hollow mountain range. Moreover, Furiana is inside the Baro clan so, who will be daring enough to harm the only daughter of the clan leader inside the clan.

After an internal debate Northem still decided to voice out his concern, "Young Miss, the mountain is filled with dangers. Won't it be better if I followed you besides, the Lady will be safe inside the clan"

Althea flicked a glance at Northem and he immediately shut up.

"You don't need to worry about me, just follow my arrangements"

"As you wish young miss" answered Northem. Even though he was worried about Althea he didn't dare defy her orders and thinking about how Althea brought many surprises to him during the journey and also by the way she handled Ryab, he was sure that Althea had some tricks up her sleeves or else she wouldn't be confident she will return unscattered from the Hollow mountain range.

After listening to an earful of concerns and warnings from her mother and grandfather, Althea quickly set out.

......

Inner region, Hollow Mountain Range

"Second Lady, are you sure we can find a talented Beast Tamer here", asked Gufian with a doubt.

"Did we find any in Withering Valley then!", instead of answering, Lady Tsiru threw him a question.

Gufian gave a wry smile and didn't question further. He had no idea what Lady Tsiru is up to. Almost all the geniuses and people from five great powers have gathered in and around Withering Valley, only they have come to Hollow mountain range. Gufian couldn't help but speculate that Lady Tsiru is up to something.

After some time, Lady Tsiru halted and said, "we are now at the periphery of the inner region of the Hollow mountain range. The reason why we haven't come across any young talents till now is that the inner region is filled with dangers and only those at senior level or above could walk in and out safely. If we want to find some geniuses we have to lurk around the outer region of the hollow mountain range"

With that Lady, Tsiru turned around and went towards the direction of the outer region. Everyone quietly followed behind her. Only Gufian furrowed his brows looking at Lady Tsiru's back and complained inwardly, 'then why did we waste our time lurking around in the inner regions of the hollow mountain range! Surely she is hiding something from us"

.....

Outer edges of the hollow mountain range

Althea was currently sitting on one of the tree branches. It has been two days since she set her foot inside the hollow mountain range. Due to her weak strength, she didn't dare to venture deep inside. Even though she had few tricks up her sleeves in case of imminent dangers she still decided not to take risks. Besides the main reason, she came here is to practice beast taming.

After a while, Althea heard a noise coming from the nearby bushes. She had already concealed her breath so no beast of human below the divine level can perceive her existence.

From a nearby bush, Althea saw a low-level Amethyst Hamster popping out its head and looking around. After making sure that there was no one in the vicinity, the Amethyst hamster slowly came out from the bush.

After waiting for two days, Althea finally found a low-level beast suitably for practicing her beast taming skills.  Amethyst Hamster is a type of beast with zero combat abilities, it has a keen sense of smell for herbs and can aid the Beast Tamer in finding medicinal herbs. Though it is not an ideal beast for forming a contract, the beast tamers can make use of the Amethyst hamster if they came across it in the wild so that it can help them in finding precious medicinal herbs.

Beast Tamers can tame a beast only for a certain period depending on their strength and mental strength. A beginner or low-level Beast Tamers can only tame a beast for few minutes to one hour maximum.
If a Beast Tamer wants a certain Beast to follow them forever, they have to form a blood contract with the beast.

Althea slowly summoned her Golden spirit light on her palm and making use of the heaven-grade Beast Taming technique she had learned in her past life, she chanted a few words without making noise. One could only see her lips moving. After few seconds she slowly and quietly descends from the tree branch. When the Amethyst Hamster spotted Althea, it tried to go back inside the bushes but it was late as Althea flicked her index finger, and a small translucent golden-colored orb the size of a pill flew out from her fingertips and it directly went inside the head of the Amethyst Hamster.

The Amethyst Hamster was frozen on the spot and Althea was standing ten meters away from it. It was Althea's first time taming a beast, she doesn't know whether it will be a success or failure. Although she followed the instructions as written in the book and the heaven-grade technique she learned during her past life, she was still nervous. At the moment besides being nervous, she was also excited because the heaven grade beast taming technique she casually flipped through in her past life out of curiosity had now being put to use. Althea was very interested in Beast taming in her past life even though she didn't possess golden spirit light, she was always envious of Beast Tamers as they can have their contract beast which Althea longs for. But only Beast Tamers can form a contract with beast regretfully.

Fixing her gaze at the Amethyst Hamster, Althea slowly moved forward. Even if it failed she had already made mental preparation for it as it is her first time.

The Amethyst Hamster regained its composure and stared at Althea with its small and round golden eyes, then it made a small squeak and rushed towards Althea.
Coming near her foot, the Amethyst Hamster rubbed against Althea's shoes and started to run in circles around Althea.

"it succeeded!", Althea couldn't believe that she succeeded on the first try. Her eyes were beaming with joy.

As Althea was immersed in joy, few men emerged from the nearby woods.

"wo.. look who is here"

Althea quickly recollected herself and shot a glance at the newly arrived people and frowned.

The Author has something to say: This Grandaunt is trying hard to update regularly.



In the land of Dura, there exist five great powers that rule over the people. 

The Rainbow Cloud Academy 

The Hall of mage

The Beast Tamer org.

The Alchemist Guild

The Black Tower

Even though the five great powers look peaceful on the outside, they have been scheming against each other internally to gain the power to control the whole land of Dura. The power struggle had been going on for centuries with each wanting to stand above the other four powers.

There was a prophecy in the land of Dura that says.

'The one with the Flame Dragon shall rule all the land under the Heavens'

Althea Rion, the Sovereign of The Hall of Mage had a dragon token passed down to her from her mother which only a few people know of. Due to a traitor, the dragon token in her possession was exposed and she became the target of the four major forces. After being chased by the four great powers, Althea crushed the Dragon token with her last remaining strength. Her Spirit seed exploded and the red flame engulfed her before the eyes of the four great powers.

.......

Opening her eyes again, Althea found herself in the body of a sixteen-year-old girl with a damaged spirit seed. But to her surprise, she found a Flame Dragon encircled around her spirit seed.

"I am Althea, the sovereign of The Hall of Mage. Since Heavens had given me a second chance at life, this time, I will be the one to destroy The Four great powers, wait until I regain my former strength. The path of Revenge is what I chose" 

...

Will Althea regain her former glory?

Can she take down the Four great powers that had been standing strong for nearly a thousand years?

Thank you.

The saber intent armor emerged, covering the Black Iron Godly Armor. The Black Iron Godly Armor, which was quite ugly, became a little more attractive.
Song Shuhang welcomed the attack of the demonic hamster with open arms… well, his left hand was still with Senior White. However, as the 'Black Iron Godly Armor' had armor for the left arm as well, he could barely assume a pose where he had both arms.
Now, it was time to see if the attack of the demonic hamster could break his defense.
[Squeak~ Song Shuhang, do you think I can't see that the 'Black Iron Godly Armor' on you has defense of the Fifth Stage? My sight for magical treasures is far beyond what you can imagine. Watch as my sword breaks your defense!] the hamster thought, filled with excitement.
In fact, on the previous night of full moon, during the duel at the peak of the Forbidden City, its modified version of the Otherworldly Flying Demon Technique already had the power to break a Fifth Stage defensive talisman. This time, the Otherworldly Flying Demon Technique had been modified for the third time, so its power had increased even further. Even if Song Shuhang were to add another layer of armor to the Black Iron Godly Armor, the demonic hamster had the confidence to beat him down.
Lose to this sword of mine!
Under cover of the sword light, the big demon formed by the Otherworldly Flying Demon Technique roared at Song Shuhang. The demon was a combination of dense sword intent, sword qi, and evil energy of the Netherworld. It could be said that this was the strongest sword that the demonic hamster could bring out.
"Don't dodge, just face it head on!" the demonic hamster yelled as it attacked. 
"Come, if I dare to dodge, I'm your daddy!" Song Shuhang replied confidently with his arms spread wide. At the same time, he deliberately suppressed the virtuous lamia so that she would not come out this time.
Otherwise, with the character of the virtuous lamia, before the demonic hamster's sword could even cut Song Shuhang, she would definitely make a strong appearance, scream, and then fall to the ground and play dead.
In terms of ability in destroying the atmosphere, Song Shuhang could only surrender to the virtuous lamia.
"F*ck you!" demonic hamster roared, and the sword light crashed into Song Shuhang's body.
"Clang, clang, clang~"
Song Shuhang was shrouded by the sword light.
The defensive layer met the sword qi, while the saber intent met sword intent, followed by the entanglement between the evil energy of the Netherworld and innate true qi. Explosions, flames, the sound of metal and iron hitting one another...
The scene was spectacular.
At this moment, the several spectators on the third floor saw a satisfactory scene.
"This is what a duel is supposed to be. In the previous two exchanges, this little hamster faced injustice," True Monarch White Crane said.
In the previous two fights, the demonic hamster could only kneel with a baffled expression on its face, not even knowing why it had been defeated. After the defeat, Song Shuhang would even swindle it.
This time, the demonic hamster was able to completely unleash its sword technique, and the scene of Song Shuhang taking a beating was quite pleasant to see.
Loli Shi said curiously, "Senior Brother Song's light of virtue seems not to have come out to protect him? This hamster is a creature of the Netherworld, and the attack is accompanied by evil energy of the Netherworld. The power of virtue should automatically protect him, right?"
"Song Shuhang must be suppressing it. His light of virtue has evolved to a very high level, and it is not a problem for it to appear at will," Young Master Phoenix Slayer guessed.
Little Cai said, "Will Teacher be able to persist?"
"At this moment, the hamster's swordsmanship has yet to break Shuhang's defense," Su Clan's Sixteen replied.
After the saber intent armor fused with the Black Iron Godly Armor, the resulting effect was not as simple as an addition.
The flames blazed on; this was a battle between offense and defense.
The hamster's attacks continued and Song Shuhang felt that if things continued like this, his 'saber intent armor' might counterattack.
In that case, let's provoke the hamster some more. I want it to attack me again to induce a counterattack from the 'saber intent armor'!
"This is the sword technique you're so proud of? It isn't even enough to tickle me!" Song Shuhang kept his arms wide open and began trash-talking again. The Black Iron Godly Armor's full body defense gave him a great sense of security as it defended against the wave of attacks without problems.
"Die, die, die!" The hamster had been unable to break through the defense, which caused it to seethe with anger. Song Shuhang's defensive turtle shell was thicker than it'd thought. Now that Song Shuhang was provoking it again, how could it not get angered?
As a result, demonic hamster gritted its teeth, and the barrage of attacks sped up. The demons materialized from the sword attacks seemed to come to life, sending out roar after roar. The scene was quite impressive to watch.
Such a tyrannical sword qi!
Where Song Shuhang stood, apart from the ground right under his feet, a giant pit had appeared. The demonic hamster's sword qi exploded, causing this huge pit to continue to expand.
Almost there. Song Shuhang carefully felt out his 'saber intent armor'.
His saber intent armor was too lazy. It took so long for it to start fighting back even when it was under the constant attacks of the demonic hamster's sword technique.
The crazily attacking demonic hamster suddenly got an ominous feeling––its intuition told it that if it couldn't break Song Shuhang's defense in the next three breaths, something untoward would occur.
"Squeak!" The demonic hamster cried out in a hurry. It clenched its teeth, and used a secret technique. Its attack power instantly soared.
The sword light's power soared, and its attack became just like a special effect, which caused it to look even more amazing.
"Hahahaha." At this moment, Song Shuhang smiled radiantly. "Here it is."
The lazy saber intent armor had finally reached the critical point.
Next, taste the counterattack of my saber intent!
At this moment, the sense of crisis in demonic hamster's heart soared. It stopped attacking, and its petite body stepped in the air and retreated.
"It's too late to hide now," Song Shuhang said.
The counterattack of the saber intent armor was coming. The savage saber intent mixed with Song Shuhang's saber qi, turned into a stunning sabber, and then chopped at the demonic hamster...
If this attack connected, the demonic hamster would no longer be able to run from its third defeat.
❄️❄️❄️
Seeing the approaching saber intent armor's counterattack, the demonic hamster suddenly gritted its teeth.
Then, its little tail flicked, and it took the initiative to sever it.
The tail of the demonic hamster was very small, looking like a small dot. If one didn't pay attention to it, they would think that it had no tail at all.
After its cute little tail was cut off, it clashed with Song Shuhang's saber intent armor to fight back.
"Slash~"
The small tail was chopped into nothingness by the saber intent armor.
Stunned, Song Shuhang said, "Breaking your tail to save your life? Are you a lizard?" 
"How hateful, to have even forced me to use this move…! I will definitely defeat you today." After breaking its tail, the demonic hamster clenched its teeth, turned its head again, and attacked Song Shuhang madly.
But just as it was about to attack Song Shuhang, that 'feeling of crisis' suddenly began to emerge again.
What happened?
Could it be that there was going to be another wave of Song Shuhang's saber intent counterattack?
"Despicable, it turned out to be a double saber attack," the demonic hamster cried out, and when it had retreated halfway, it took another step and evaded.
Song Shuhang asked, "What?"
Just as Shuhang's voice had fallen... a transparent root appeared in the air, then quickly shot out, heading straight for the demonic hamster.
"What's this?!" The demonic hamster waved the sword in its hand, cutting at the root.
But the root was incorporeal, and physical attacks couldn't cut it apart.
The moment the demonic hamster wielded its sword, the transparent roots extended and extracted the demonic hamster's evil energy nonstop.
"Aaaah, what the hell is this?!" demonic hamster screamed.
"Oh, it's a lotus flower root." Song Shuhang then remembered that he was still keeping up the 'lotus flower projection' as the lotus roots were absorbing the mass of evil energy that had originated from the ball of liquid metal.
The evil energy of the metal ball was too huge, and even with Song Shuhang's lotus flower projection sucking it with all its might, it would still take about a day to absorb.
And now, the demonic hamster had drawn support from a secret technique to increase its power within a short time. The evil energy on its body attracted the attention of the 'lotus flower projection'. As such, the roots of the lotus flower projection quickly divided into several strands and stabbed into the body of the demonic hamster, greedily swallowing its energy.
"Aaaahhh, let go of me!" the demonic hamster screamed. The energy in its body was being drained very quickly, and it felt weak.
After two breaths' time...
The demonic hamster had been defeated again. Its small body lay weakly on the ground, and it was unable to move.
Had Song Shuhang not forcefully withdrawn the lotus roots at the last minute, today, the demonic hamster would have turned into a dry mouse.
"Squeak~" The demonic hamster cried out weakly... It felt as though its body had been hollowed out, and it couldn't even move its fingers.
Song Shuhang squatted by its side, and stretched out a finger to poke its belly. "Do you still want to fight?"
"Squeak." The hamster cried weakly. Fight your ass... 
It had to return and fill itself up. It wouldn't be able to make up for today's consumption without ten days to half a month of recuperation.
Song Shuhang added, "Well, that's all for today. At present, you and I have had three fights, one draw and two losses for you." 
The hamster tried to roll its eyes, but it unfortunately didn't have any sclera...
Song Shuhang asked, "Say, why did you look for me today?" 
The demonic hamster usually had a task entrusted to it by Senior White Two every time it came to challenge him.
Sometimes, something was asked of him, and at other times, treasures were brought to him.
"My lord asked me to bring you a fox demon," the demonic hamster said weakly.
"A fox demon? Oh, I remember now. It must be the fox demon we met in the forbidden area previously," Song Shuhang replied. He'd still thought that Senior White Two had forgotten about the fox demon.
Song Shuhang was originally planning to look for an opportunity to go and meet up with the teacher of the fox demon. He also wanted to look for an opportunity to pass on the ❮Encyclopedia of Animal Taming❯ to the true descendant of the "Thirty-Three Divine Beasts' Sect" and settle his karma with it.
Song Shuhang asked, "Where's the fox demon?" 
"Sealed by me, it's in a van outside." The demonic hamster gasped for breath, and then said, "In addition, as a reward for defeating me, I will pass on a piece of useful information to you. You have yet to forge your own life-bound magic treasure, right?"
"Well, yes. It's because I still haven't figured out what kind of magical treasure to forge yet," Song Shuhang said.
The hamster responded, "In that case, you should consider requesting a life-bound magical treasure forging method from the successor of the Thirty-Three Divine Beasts' Sect."


One day, Song Shuhang was suddenly added to a chat group with many seniors that suffered from chuuni disease. The people inside the group would call each other ‘Fellow Daoist’ and had all different kinds of titles: Palace Master, Cave Lord, True Monarch, Immortal Master, etc. Even the pet of the founder of the group that had run away from home was called ‘monster dog’. They would talk all day about pill refining, exploring ancient ruins, or share their experience on techniques.
However, after lurking inside the group for a while, he discovered that not all was what it seemed... 

While Enri and the others are picking herbs I had [Message] Aura and tasked her to send the beast in our way.

'She's probably done doing that.' I thought.

"So the Wise King of the Forest is weak?" Narberal then spoke but It's low enough so only we three could hear it.

"It is weak by Nazarick standards, but one of the strongest entities here in this world... Around level 30."

"Ohh~ Impressive~su," Lupusregina said. She's probably thinking that almost all the humans and monsters we have met are weaker than Level 30. The strongest we had met, is the warrior-captain but he's weaker than this beast.

Narberal, Gina, and I had handicapped ourselves to level 30-34 beings before coming to E-Rantel and it had stayed that well.

Moments later, Enri said that we have collected the right amount. "Let's go back now, Momon-sama." She's so happy when she said this.

And so we started heading back now. Aura also [Message] me that the beast will be coming any moment now.

While strolling in the forest, I and my companions felt the incoming beast. We could even already feel the disturbance happening all over the forest. As if something big is coming.

"Has our guest arrived?" Narberal said.

'We are the guest Narberal...' I thought, then—

I felt the air moved and I immediately raised my bastard sword to block an incoming attack.

*Clang!*

A tremendous force hit my sword and a loud clang of metal hitting metal resounded in the already quiet forest.

I saw a long, serpentine tail slowly retreated behind a tree.

Then a feminine voice resounded in the area.

"How spectacular; to think thou could endure the blow of this one. Perhaps this is the first time this one hath encountered a foe possessed of such prowess."

'This little shit.' I thought.

"—Then, oh trespasser upon mine demesne. Shouldst thou decides to quit, this one shall not pursue thy bunch in honor of thy magnificent defense." It added.

'This hamster...'  I don't know but something is annoying about this Giant Hamster.

'Ha~ I should go with my script now.'

"Show me your face beast! Are you so insecure about your appearance that you have to hide behind a tree?" I said, and immediately I could feel the goblins behind our backs started coordinating themselves.

I think they are planning to evacuate with Enri now.

"What a wild tongue thou hast, oh trespasser! Now behold this one's mighty form! Stare with eyes wide and tongue-tied, and tremble in dread and awe!" The hamster replied.

The dramatic show of the appearance of this beast is really something. I saw it and it resembles a giant Djungarian hamster with a long snake tail. Six sigils dot her silvery fur.

The moment I saw her appearance, I almost say "Aww~". 'This is a giant Djungarian Hamster! So cute.'

"T-That's the Wise King of the Forest," I heard Enri said. I could feel awe in her voice.

'Eh, is it really that impressive? I mean It's cute.' I then stole a glance at both Narberal and Lupusregina. They both have bored expressions. Lupusregina even might doze off.

The Giant hamster is silently observing us as if sizing us up, I think it may be because of the commotion with Enri and her goblins. And then��

"Ani-san! We're going!" Jugem suddenly shouted. I sensed them getting Enri to evacuate— 'Eh? Someone is crying.'

I then turned my head back and see them already retreating with Enri crying.

'What an adorable girl, she cares for me huh?' I thought before replying:

"Don't worry..."

The goblins then retreated and carried Enri away. I think Jugem(Goblin leader) knew well that we could match the beast and he decided to carry her away because he doesn't want his master to be caught up in a battle.

'Yosh! Let me smack this giant-ass hamster a bit before taming. This mere hamster dare flaunt his weak-ass on me!' I thought.

Then something entered my ears—

"I like you Momon-sama! P-Please come back safely!" The loud shout came from the goblins' direction.

I froze for a moment, I have very keen ears, and there's no mistake that is...

'E-Eh? That's Enri's voice!'

"Fufufu, this one senses thy fear and alarm form beneath thine helmet!" The hamster said smugly.

'Arghh— this little shit!' I thought. I do not know why I'm becoming annoyed but this hamster is still cute though.

A smile twisted the face of the magical beast, and it curled its long tail. There were strange glyphs and symbols on the silvery fur covering its body. It was about the size of a horse, but it was low to the ground, being larger in the horizontal rather than the vertical dimension.

The Wise King of the Forest shrank the distance between them.

"WISE KING OF THE FOREST SUBMIT TO ME!" I shouted to the beast. This is the last line of the script.

"Outrageous! This one hath live for centuries as the ruler of this demesne! This one hath offered thou with grace but now let us end this!—" The giant hamster seemed to be pissed now.

"—Oh trespasser who hath profaned mine demesne, offer thy life as this one's sustenance!" The beast added.

"Nabe, Gina. Fall back." I ordered. I want this beast to submit to me but with me just using this level 30 plus handicap.

"Yes~su. Do your best hamster~san!~su." Lupusregina said before backing off, still on her adventurer persona.

While Narberal had a look of absolute confidence as she bowed deeply and then retreated to a corner of the clearing.

"Oh — but know thou that being outnumbered is no handicap for this one?"

"…I can't do something as embarrassing as fighting a weak beast three-on-one."

The Wise King of the Forest then lowered its body and tensed its entire body.

"Regret not thy decision! Now bear the charge of this one!" The hamster shouted and then she charges.

The hamster then forcefully kicked off the earth and lunged at me so fast but that's for the New World standard. But — 'Not fast enough...' for me.

The flying tackle of the beast's massive body would have yeet anything weaker than level 30 away, but they could still survive it with the use of [Martial arts] or some high-tier spells.

I threw my sword on the side and took the Wise King of Forest's charged head-on. Trying to wrestle with strength alone.

Remember that my overall abilities are handicapped at Level 30+ now.

"Muuuuu!" The sound came from the giant hamster who is probably frustrated that she can't even push me from the ground I stood on.

The giant hamster then decided to use its sharp claws and started ferociously slash at me.

*Wooosh!*

I dodged it with my practiced movements. The beast then continued Its fierce slashings.

"It's my turn now!" I said after dodging every attack that has been thrown at me. I rounded up my fist that is wearing a gauntlet and threw a right straight heavy punch at the beast body center/belly — where the magical glyphs are.

"Uhhh!" The cracking of a tree could be heard.

A heavy punch from a roughly level 35 warrior connected the beast's body; sending her flying to the tree that immediately broke the moment her body hits it.

"Arghh— Despicable! Take this! [Blindness]!" One of the glyphs glowed on her body, but I resisted the spell she cast like nothing.

"Uhh [Charm Species]!" Then another glyph glows in her body again but I resisted the mere 4th tier spell as well.

There were spellcasting monsters in YGGDRASIL. While the numbers of spells they could use varied greatly according to their level and species, as a rough guideline, they could use about eight kinds of magic. Similarly, the Wise King of the Forest had roughly eight kinds of tattoos on its body.

The beast did not notice its spell had been resisted by me — even in this handicapped form, it is enough to resist it — and stood and charged again with its forepaws.

We both went back and forth, neither side being able to strike a decisive blow. We continued fighting in the clearing and I didn't bulge a bit.

I want this hamster to submit to me using a level 30 handicap form of my [Seraph form]. Yes, before the fight starts, I switched to my humanoid form because I felt more comfortable in this form and I also want to tame it while handicapped.

—And so I continued pushing to my advantage.

I had trained my martial arts — not [Martial Arts] of the new world but the fighting styles — with Sebas in Nazarick. One of these techniques is boxing and I learned boxing a bit from him. Surprisingly, I learned it quickly! But I also learned other hand-to-hand combat skills from him.

Anyway, I continued doing my dodges from her claws and counter-attacking with jabs and occasional heavy punches.

Left hook, right hook, left uppercut, and so on.

The beast then lowered Its body and I immediately recognized it.

'She's going to use her tail!'

The tail strike at the beginning had come from a long-distance away. In other words, I was still in the range of the tail attack.

As expected, the tail swung in a huge, sweeping arc, speeding at me with its surprising length.

I easily dodged the sweeping tail attack. 'I need to close my distance!' I thought. I can't let her kept using that tail nor be hit by it.

So far I have not been hit even a single time because I had dodged it all — except for taking the charge head-on — but I doubt being able to dodge the tail in this level 30 handicap. It's faster than me on this handicap. Impressive.

Now is the first time I have moved from my position because since earlier I have been holding my ground without moving.

I closed my distance while she's still retracting her tail, and overall still unready.

I went in front of her and hammer fisted her head with my right hand. I bonked her head.

"Ouch!"

'That is considered a blunt damage right?' I thought.

"Submit to me beast!" I shouted at her again. As she retreated from me.

"This one will not yield to thee!" She replied while massaging where I bonked her with teary-eyed.

"Then! I'll make you submit!" I shouted back before forcefully the ground and lunged on her at full-speed.

--------------------------

"That's… enough," I said in a cold voice as I pointed my right hand to the giant hamster.

"[Despair Aura V]." I activated a skill. I returned to my [Overlord Form] because this skill is only available to my undead form.

Since its instant death effect was too strong, I reduced its potency and instead activated [Despair Aura I]'s fear effect.

A cold, soul-chilling vapor gusted out from my right hand.

The moment that mass of cold air washed over the Wise King of the Forest, every single one of its hairs stood on end, and it rolled over with surprising speed.

All I could see now was its silvery fur, and its soft, defenseless belly.

"AAA! This one yields to thee!"

"Haah~ I should have done this earlier."

We've been fighting back and forth for 6 minutes straight and it became boring for me and I realized how cringy it must be for Lupusregina and Narberal that I'm fighting this fluff monster for that long.

"As expected of Momon-sama! A mere beast won't have a chance." Narberal said as she walked towards me with a smug expression.

"Amazing fight~su, Momon-san~." Lupusregina comes after Narberal.

I then faced the giant hamster.

"My true name is Momonga. If you are willing to serve me, I will spare your life, beast."

"Th-Thank you very much! This one shall offer absolute fealty to thee for the gift of this one's life! The life of the Wise King of the Forest shall be an offering to the great warrior, Momonga-sama!" The giant hamster jumped up and was frantically pledging its loyalty to me.

"Now. Now. Let's get back to the village. Remember to not call me by my original name there."

"This one shall follow m'lord command!"

[1 Chapter a week minimum]][No update in weekends]

"Ye Xuan, I'm hungry."
That night, after Ye Xuan went to bed, Lil Wan lay down in her tiny house and eagerly stared at him.
Ye Xuan rolled his eyes. "Don't you still have a lollipop with you?"
Lil Wan flew out from her house, landed beside Ye Xuan's ear, and whispered into it. "This isn't enough. I still have a whole night to get through. Gimme another three."
"Alright alright," Ye Xuan said helplessly. "But don't exhaust yourself too much. We still have to enter the secret realm tomorrow. I'm counting on you when we get in there."
He had to take out another three lollipops and hand them over to Lil Wan.
"Okie dokie. I'll pay attention." Lil Wan smiled gleefully.
She towed the three lollipops hurriedly with her Mind Energy and fluttered back to her tiny wooden shack.
Like a little hamster hoarding food.
"Alright. Good night to you."
Ye Xuan waved his hand and went to sleep.
After Ye Xuan fell asleep, Lil Wan, on the other hand, stared at Ye Xuan's charming side profile while blinking her eyes.
Then, she waved her tiny hand and spawned an Ironwood Vine, which she then wrapped around a lollipop, delivering the candy to her mouth.
However, it could clearly be seen that the front end of the Ironwood Vine that she'd spawned this time was faintly becoming black in color. It was also starting to become dart-like in shape.
This was also a training method.
Bear in mind that she wasn't just an adorable foodie.
The lollipop that Ye Xuan had given her was made from more than a dozen evolution resources, and was based on a specific recipe.
It could quickly replenish her energy and assist her in advancing to the Dark Iron Level.
However, this lollipop wasn't something that she could eat whenever she wanted to.
To eat large amounts of these and quickly level up, she had to train a lot and deplete huge amounts of energy.
She was already exhausted to the extreme from having to digest these lollipops all day.
"It's not because I'm craving food!"
"Three more, this will be the last three!"
Lil Wan stuck out her rosy little tongue, gently licked a lollipop, and closed her eyes, intoxicated.
...
The night went by in a flash.
Early the next morning, while Ye Xuan was having breakfast, Sun Yunmeng pulled at his ear and nagged, "Ye Xuan, when you and Lil Want enter the secret realm, you must be careful. Avoid fighting as much as you can. You've just awakened your Beast Taming aptitude, so how could you possibly defeat those ferocious beasts?"
"Mum, I know. Please stop pinching my ear. I'll really be in danger if I can't hear anything when I get into the secret realm."
"Hmph, slippery tongue you have!"
Su Yunmeng loosened her hand, but she couldn't help adding, "You too, Lil Wan. Be vigilant when you enter the secret realm. Don't do just anything he tells you to. If you guys run into danger, drag him away and escape. Remember to never ever charge into danger foolishly."
"Okie Dokie. Got it."
Lil Wan nodded like a little chicken, as if she was taking Su Yunmeng's words as the empress's decree.
Only after Lil Wan voiced her agreement did Sun Yunmeng finally calm down.
Creak!
At that moment, a car stopped at the entrance of the tiny community where Ye Xuan and his family lived.
"Mum, look at you. I have to go now. Brother Lejia is here to pick me up."
Seeing that Nong Lejia had arrived to pick him up, Ye Xuan quickly put on his shoes and rushed out with Lil Wan.
Ye Guotao came over from behind and hugged Su Yunmeng.
"Alright alright, that's enough. Our son is all grown up. He can spread his wings and fly on his own. We should be happy for him, so why are you crying?"
"Because of you!" Su Yunmeng complained. "If you were just slightly more capable, like a powerful Beast Tamer or something, you could've trained Ye Xuan while he was growing up, and then things wouldn't have ended up like this."
"If I had been a powerful Beast Tamer, I wouldn't have married you," Ye Guotao answered subconsciously.
"Hm?"
...
"So, are you nervous?"
Nong Lejia drove Ye Xuan all the way to the outer limits of Yunhai City.
"A little bit." Ye Xuan nodded. "But it's not that big of a deal. Brother Lejia, you told me yesterday that in the beginning, after we go into the Amber Secret Realm, we'll always be close to the entrance.
"There aren't a lot of monsters near the Amber Secret Realm's entrance. Besides, the monsters there are generally weaker. I'll practice with the low-level monsters first, and then go deeper."
"Nice. You're not blinded by your aptitude," Nong Lejia praised. "Although Miss Lin asked me to mention all that to you, it's better that you figured it out for yourself.
"Another thing, you might not have seen it yet, but in your Combat Watch, there's an information zone."
Nong Lejia gestured with his head toward the combat watch. "In the information zone, there's a map of the Amber Secret Realm. The low-risk and high-risk areas in the Amber Secret Realm are all marked on the map. You can take a look at it now."
"There's a map?" Ye Xuan was surprised.
"Of course," Nong Lejia smiled. "But you just have to roughly look at the map, especially the danger zones marked on it."
"After all, this map was drawn six years ago. The Amber Secret Realm might have changed a lot in those six years."
Ye Xuan nodded.
But no matter the case, having a map was always a good thing.
Thinking about this, he turned on the Combat Watch, found the map, and looked at it.
...
A restricted area in the northern suburbs of Yunhai City.
Several big cars drove through the massive iron gates outside the restricted area. Once the cars came to a stop, dozens of people climbed out.
These people were Cao Qing and the other students from the Beast Taming Class.
And the teachers who were leading them.
Not long afterward, a funky off-road vehicle also drove through the gates.
Creak!
When the off-road vehicle halted, Ye Xuan and Nong Lejia got out of their vehicle as well.
Seeing Ye Xuan getting out of the car, Cao Qing and most of the others turned to look at him.
Ye Xuan felt speechless when he saw this.
However, he also felt his fighting spirit slightly surge within himself.
His was still too weak.
If he were strong enough to crush Cao Qing and the others, then they probably wouldn't be looking at him like this.
After getting out of the car, Nong Lejia immediately led Ye Xuan over to Wu Fuyun, the teacher in charge of the Beast Taming Class. "Mr. Wu, how's the situation? Can they enter the Amber Secret Realm yet?"
Wu Fuyun nodded and said, "The spatial fluctuations over here have stabilized. They can enter now."
"Since that's the case, without further ado, let's arrange for the students to go in."
Nong Lejia raised his bald head high.
Although he was just an assistant, because he was from Jiangzhou University, his Beast Taming abilities were just as good as Wu Fuyun's, and in terms of strength, he was more powerful.
He was always a powerful speaker in the Beast Taming Class.
"Alright, we'll go with your plan," Wu Fuyun said with a smile.
At that moment, Ye Xuan swept his eyes over his surroundings and discovered that there was a colorful cloud in the middle of the area.
It was surrounded by Darklight Iron mesh, and it covered a radius of over ten meters. It looked out of place, and had a somewhat otherwordly aura.
"Is that the secret realm?" Ye Xuan's heart skipped a beat.
At that moment, an assistant teacher of the Beast Taming Class ordered the students to line up and walk towards the colorful cloud. "Stand up, everyone. After you receive your Protection Amulet, line up and enter the secret realm."
As the assistant teacher instructed the students, he gave each of them a Jade Amulet that emitted colorful light.
When Ye Xuan saw these Jade Amulets, he looked at Nong Lejia in confusion. "Protection Amulet?"
"These amulets were created using an Amber Heart obtained after killing the monsters in the Amber Secret Realm. If you encounter a life-threatening situation in the secret realm, the Jade Amulet will activate.
"And after the Jade Amulet is activated, you will be instantly teleported out of the secret Realm."
Nong Lejia chuckled beside Ye Xuan.
"F*ck!"
Ye Xuan almost let the f word slip out of his mouth.
Earlier, he'd been worried that he would run into danger in the Amber Secret Realm.
So much so that he hadn't even dared to mention too much about it to his parents.
But it turned out to be like this!
Are baldheads all so childish?
He glanced at Nong Lejia's shiny head, thinking that this guy would be a great monk if he decided to become one.


In the era of Beast Taming, Ye Xuan with his superior Beast Editor, claims that he can turn even a snake into a Divine Dragon that soars across the nine heavens.
Hence, the little monkey he tamed became a Deific Ape.
The little birds he raised became a ginormous roc.

[Did you hear me?! Silvi?!!]
[.......]
[Please straighten yourself up! or maybe do you want to leave this place?! I can release the slave's contract right now and let you leave this place if you want to!]
[.......]
Sigh...
After reprimanding Silvi and lectured her bad habit with a heavy tone for a while, I sending a message to the Twin, and 5 members of the Silver Wolf to come to me with my smartphone.
I asked them to have themselves changing into combat gear before coming to me in the message.
[Silvi, for now, change your clothes into combat gear, and don't forget your weapon...]
I asked Silvi to change into a combat suit and took her weapon before going back here once again.
She left and walked lifelessly to her room to prepare herself.
Looking at her downcast appearance I just sighed tiredly.
I know I can't be soft to her.
If I let her drown in Internet addiction further, she will become a useless woman sooner or later, so I must straighten her up for her own good.
Before long, all the women who got my message coming one by one along with Silvi.
Ah, as for Anna, she knew that I called her from her sister.
After all, Anna is not my slave, so she can't understand the language that I use in the text, and she didn't get her phone yet, so if I want to sending a message to her, I always sent it via Anni, her twin sister.
Since Chali has to deal with my fast-food business as well as the rural area development project with Al and Eliz, I can't include her to investigate the waterfall place where I get a dreadful feeling was.
Chali kissed my cheeks and left to continue her work after seeing the people that I call just now already arrived.
For some reason, her light kiss cool my head as well my anger down.
After seeing her disappearing back, I turned my head to the people I just called to check their gear.
When I observed them one by one, I spotted Silvi who still have a disheartened expression.
[Yippi~ Master, did we go somewhere to play?]
All of a sudden, Ra, the fire spirit coming out and cheerfully asking me.
When I came back to check the situation a while ago, I decided to ask Ra to back into the earring before dealing with Silvi's situation seriously.
But it seems the energetic Spirit can't wait idly in her boredom and decided to get out to check the situation.
The woman in front of me was shocked after seeing Ra, they turned at me, waiting for an explanation.
I briefly introduced Ra to them before asking Ra to be good and behave.
Ra giggling and transformed into a small hamster before resting her round fat hamster body above my head.
After dealing with Ra, I approached Silvi who still being down and sad.
[Silvi…]
I touched and caressed her cheeks gently, tracing her smooth and beautiful face with my finger.
Feeling my warm and gentle hand, she lifts up her face slowly.
She's staring at my pained expression with her watery eyes, seemingly realize how conflicted my feeling right now, after shouting at her and reprimanding her before.
She became to feel more guilty after realizing how bad she behaves in these recent days.
She gripped her hand very hard, holding the tears that trying to drop from her watery eyes.
Looking at her appearance, I close my face toward her before kissing her lips gently to express my feeling.
After a few seconds, I removed my lips from hers, appeasing her with gentle words in a whisper.
[Silvi, I don't want to hurt your feelings, but, since if I keep spoiling you it will only be poison for you, then please understand that all I do is for your own good.
Now, straighten up, and back to the gallant and cool Silvi I used to know. Can you do it?]
[Umn… Master, I know that I'm wrong… please forgive Silvi…]
[Silvi is my women, there's no way I will be hard on you all the time, as long as you did not behave badly]
[I'll promise to not drown in social media addiction again…]
[Good~]
I kissed her lips gently once again and back to my place to oversee the others.
Some of them had their face dyed in redness and embarrassment after seeing my lovey-dovey interaction with Silvi, but I decided to gloss it over. 
As long as I can bring Silvi's spirit back, it's worth it.
Seeing that they're already combat-ready, with all their gear intact, I nodded my head in satisfaction.
Without further ado, I activated my teleportation and teleported near the waterfall area where Chali and the Silver Wolf doing some lizard hunting for leveling up their level before, together with all of them.
After confirming that I teleported into the right place, I turned my head toward the woman and started my speech.
[The reason I ask you all to come with me here is to investigate any suspicious-looking place around this place especially around the waterfall over there~]
I pointed to the grandiose waterfall which has beautiful scenery that could be seen even from our place and continued.
[I have a hunch there's some mysterious place that buries or hidden near this area, I hope you guys always focus and careful when doing the investigation, as there's a possibility that something very dangerous individual hiding or maybe guarding that mysterious place]
 
[That's all, now split up in a pair to do the searching and call me with your phone if you guys found the suspicious places!] 
[[Ha!]]
They started to split up into pairs and scattered into different directions to investigate the surrounding area.
After seeing they already left, I started moving in the opposite direction to them and doing the investigation on my own.
'Right, let's check my status to show you guys my growth as well as my Absolute Copy skill update!'

===============================================
I bet you guys are confused after looking at my status right now, but don't worry, I'll explain it to you!
For now, let's check the Absolute Copy V first!
Absolute Copy V[Legendary] : Copy any skill that the targeted unit has. Skill Slot > Legendary skill : max 5 skill | Unique Skill : max 20 skill | Rare~Common : Unlimitied. you can now Paste your Copied skill to another targeted unit for max 10 skills.
 Open Function :
 - Skill Storage [With Skill Storage, you can store your unused copied skill. with this you can edit your skill slot at your will]. If your skill slot is full, the copied skill will be automatically moved inside the skill storage. PS: even if your skill slot isn't full, you can control the copied skill to the storage]
 .
 - Skill Combination [Now, the automatic skill combination function is off. you have to combine your skill manually by your own will. you can combine the skill in the skill storage to create high-grade skill to be saved]
In conclusion, After the upgrade, I don't need any wooden block or card anymore.
With the Skill storage, I can save all the skill I copy there before deciding which skill that I will place into my skill slot.
If you wondering why I didn't put the Twin Immortal Ogre's skill into my slot, the answer is, because most of their skill aren't fit for me.
Their Legendary skill, Ymir whatever, will change my race into a giant, or Amazonian.
I don't know what this Amazonian is, but it seems it's one of the Ymir bloodlines.
The thing is, if I changed into an Amazonian, my gender will change into a woman! I don't want to lose my pee-pee!
Now that I think about it carefully, The Dragonkin sure is special, this skill seems not change my race completely into a dragon and just give me dragon blood.
As you guys already know, my Immortal Bloodline gave me the ability to hold all the skills from the combat class!
There's a lot of them that I copied from Galiust Sword, Federic house member, and the twin.
Since I copying a lot of them, turned them into my own skill.
The skill made my skill list interface full, so for whatever reason, the Otherwolder gave this hiding function to my status now.
And these incredible amounts of passive skill from all over combat class that enhanced my status became ridiculous S-rank!
Anyway, if I tap in that [+] Symbol, there's a lot of skill that will make your head spin to just look at it, so I will just tell you briefly, most of the Element Magic skill turned into Element Control ability.
There's a healing skill, assassination, block, tracking, and all others that if I decided to make it a list, I'm sure you guys will be angry at me and slander me that I just write it to increase the word counts(LOL)
Anyway, since there's too much skill, I just only used it in a situational condition.
As for combat, I will mainly focus on the elemental control as well as my weapon mastery!
Oh yeah! There's more in weapon mastery.
Just so you know, now, I'm not just an expert on the sword, but also an expert on most other weapons, in short, I almost can use all different weapons!
Most of them are at level VI to VIII, which means it's either intermediate or advances!
Yes, I know, I became ridiculously OP.
But, there's still a cheat character hidden out there in this world, so I dare not call myself the strongest.
Oh, talking about the Absolute Copy Skill Combination function, I decided to not use it yet and intended to collect a lot of skills first, before combining it for later.
Maybe, if there's more skill, I can get an unexpected combination that will give me an OP skill like Immortal bloodline, who knows, right?
I continued roaming around and carefully checking my surrounding to find the suspicious place.
Bzzzzt* Bzzzt* vibration SFX
When I still busily concentrating to observe my surrounding, all of a sudden my phone started to vibrate.
[Munyuu~ Master, phone call?]
Ra, who still in her cute hamster form and lazily rests on my head tilt her cute hamster head after feeling the phone call once again.
Since she already knows the phone call before, she noticed that it was my phone that continuously vibrating.
I hurriedly took my phone and answered the incoming call. 
Looking at the name on the screen, it was actually Anni who calling me right now.
Tap*
[Hello? Anni? Did you find something?]
...
[Oke, I'll be there]
Hang*
It seems she found a mysterious cave behind the waterfall.
There's a high chance that the cave was the source of the ominous feeling I felt before.
Without hesitation, I send a message to all the scattered people to go to Anni's place before going there myself!
'I hope it's not something troublesome hidden in there…'
With this thought, I moved toward the grand waterfall that's could be seen even from my place in a hurry.


"Whaa--- I can order Mcdonalds in isekai ?!! With this i can still eat junkfood without problem in the middle of the jungle mwahahahahah! what is dry meat ?! i dont need it !!"
Alex the only one otherworlder begin his journey in sword and magic world with hamburger in his hands.

Qu Xing Xu nodded his head and popped another hazelnut out of its shell. However, instead of handing it to her, he raised his hand to her lips.
Was he planning to feed her? Lin Xiaofei thought to herself and looked at him strangely.
"Open your mouth," he said with his hand still in front of her lips.
Lin Xiaofei stared at him but seeing that there was no hidden motive in his eyes when he looked at her and with the fact that he reassured her that there will be no problems in the Qu residence, she didn't stop parting her lips to take the thing in his hand to her lips.
Seeing that Lin Xiaofei didn't reject him, Qu Xing Xu smiled at her and pushed the peeled hazelnut in her parted mouth.
After the hazelnut disappeared in her mouth, Qu Xing Xu crushed another immediately and waited for her to finish the hazelnut inside her mouth.
When finished chewing, Lin Xiaofei said her thanks to him but before she could finish speaking, another hazelnut was put into her mouth.
Lin Xiaofei: "..."
Lin Xiaofei didn't expect him to put another one in her mind and even after the second one was nicely chewed inside her mouth, the man beside her seemed to know no limits as he continued to crush the shell of the hazelnut and pop it into her mouth.
"That's enough." Said Lin Xiaofei to him, afraid that he'll put another one in her mouth. "I'm not a hamster. So, there's no need for you to feed me anymore."
"But there's still a few more left." He replied. He looked at the hazelnut in the bowl pitifully but Lin Xiaofei stared at him weirdly.
Is he kidding me right now? Who would be able to eat a bowl of hazelnut by themselves? Even if Lin Xiaofei was hungry, she wasn't a fan of hazelnut and won't be able to finish them in one sitting.
"Then you eat them." She told him.
However, Qu Xing Xu shook his head and said, "My fingers are tired after crushing the shells. I can't seem to lift it to my mouth."
He blatantly lied to her without changing his expression.
Outside the carriage where the driver was seated, Gu Yan who was beside the driver closed his eyes as if he wanted to disappear from there.
He could clearly hear what was going on inside the carriage thus, he found his master's lies frightening. If Qu Xing Xu was really tired after crushing a few shells of hazelnuts then, wouldn't crushing somebody's hands and bones be even more tiring?
Gu Yan couldn't help but feel embarrassed at his master's shamelessness and felt pity towards his young madam who will have to get used to Qu Xing Xu's shameless actions.
Inside the carriage, Lin Xiaofei stared at the bowl of hazelnut and looked at Qu Xing Xu's face before looking down again to see his fingers were really trembling
"Was it that hard to crush the shell of a hazelnut?" Unconsciously, she blurted out loud her thoughts.
"Of course it is." Qu Xing Xu answered.
Lin Xiaofei bit her lips upon realizing that she said her question out loud and saw him putting one whole unpeeled hazelnut in her hand. It was the last one among the cracked ones on the bowl.
She stared at him confused and heard him say, "You can try and crush it with your hands if you don't believe me."
Lin Xiaofei: "..."
She pursed her lips and moved her hand to crush the hazelnut in her hand. She struggled to crush it and tried once more. It seems that it was indeed hard to crack the shell of the hazelnut.
"Don't you have a nutcracker?" Asked Lin Xiaofei as she remembered that one should have a nutcracker to open the tough shell.
Qu Xing Xu paused before saying, "It seems that my people forgot to include to put that in this carriage."
As he said that, Gu Yan almost slipped from his chair outside.
Master! What do you mean we forgot to put it in there?! Gu Yan screamed in his mind as he clearly remembered that he put the nutcracker inside the bowl before putting it inside the carriage for his masters to nibble on during the journey to the Qu residence.
His master has always been demanding and as a loyal servant, Gu Yan would always make sure that the carriage he rode and places that his master would go to won't be lacking food. Thus, aside from the hazelnuts in the carriage, there was still other snacks inside but Qu Xing Xu purposely took the hazelnut as his choice of snack today.
Lin Xiaofei looked at him suspiciously but then she said soon after, "Give that to me. I will feed you."
Qu Xing Xu smiled and obediently put the bowl in her hand. He watched her taming one nut from it and reaching her hand to him.
Without any hesitation, Qu Xing Xu opened his mouth and took the hazelnut in her fingers to his parted mouth.
His tongue somehow touched her index finger. Lin Xiaofei didn't know if it was deliberate or not but the moment she felt it, she pulled her hand away as if she had touched fire.
She tried to calm down but her mind stopped as she stared at him in shock.
After taking the nut in his mouth, Qu Xing Xu looked up to see her staring at him. One corner of his lips was pulled upward as he stared back at her.
As much as he wanted to tease her longer, Qu Xing Xu was afraid that she will try to put her guards up against him if he went further with his teasing. Hence, after taking one nut from her hand, he became satisfied with it and sat up straight in his seat.
He leaned against the walls of the carriage and faced her. Crossing his arms, he said as he stared at her eyes, "The hazelnut tasted delicious."


Men and women needs to be bought.

Golden Throne has to be passed over.

Empire must be conquered and torched down.

And hearts needs to be snatched.
---

Xiaofei finds herself alive again inside the body of a beautiful young lady from the noble Lin family owning the same name as her.

She was blessed with a peerless face, worthy of winning every men's heart and gaining women's envy in her previous life.

But she foolishly fell in love with the prince, and was destined to die at the hands of her own beloved person.

Even in this new life and body. Evil schemes and scandals won't let her escape even after her rebirth hence, 
she starts to do the same. Be evil and ruthless to those who went against her. 

Xiaofei swears to overturn the world and slay her enemy. With a cruel era like this, one can only forcibly try to make a shell and protect oneself from harm.

However, who would have thought that a man full of viciousness an arrogance that could pierce the sky would suddenly barge into Xiaofei's life? And would shamelessly whisper next to her ear, "Your enemy is my enemy and your wish is my command. However, I also have another wish that only you could grant for me."

"That is to have my wife for breakfast, lunch, snack, and dinner."

Xiaofei: "......"
