Yu Xingqiao felt a little inconceivable. Isn’t the cub just too smart? He completely didn’t think that it could be used like this!

On the screen, after storing the magic crystal in the shadow, the little black ball jumped back to Arashi’s side. To be precise, his target was the two grassland black eagles. 

The tentacles stretched out, and after doing the same thing, he got two transparent magic crystals.

In comparison, these two magic crystals were a bit small.

 

 

Yu Xingqiao detected them and found that they were wind magic crystals, both of which were of the primary medium grade.

The little black ball’s tentacles curled around one of the magic crystals and contracted back, that magic crystal melted directly into it after it touched the surface of the ball. 

The black energy rays on the surface of the small black ball slowly contracted and expanded, like breathing.

 

About half a minute passed before another system box appeared on Yu Xingqiao’s game interface.

[Cub absorbed [Wind Magic Crystal], Source Power +6]

[Source Power: 6/10]

 

Didn’t expect that a primary mid-grade wind magic crystal could transform into 6 points of source power.

Then just now, that intermediate top-grade earth magic crystal could probably transform into even more. But then, it would exceed Little Jun Lu’s source power limit.

Yu Xingqiao was stunned. So he didn’t use that earth magic crystal in the first place because of this?

This game’s AI, isn’t it a little too much ah? 

While Yu Xingqiao was frozen, the little black ball continued to digest the second magic crystal.

[Cub absorbed [Wind Magic Crystal], Source Power +6]

[Source Power: 10/10]

Sure enough, two points of source power had spilled out. 

Yu Xingqiao felt a little pity, then hurriedly opened the skill tree and used the 10 points of source power to upgrade the skill [Shadow Cage] to Lv2.

【Ding~ Accumulated 5 skill upgrades for cubs, accumulated consumption of 1000 diamonds, condition reached!]

[Ding~Successfully unlocked the [Command Announcement] function.

Command Announcement function? What is this? 

A question mark popped up on Yu Xingqiao’s head, and the system had already continued on.

[Still worried about not being able to communicate with the cubs smoothly?]

 

[Are you still feeling lonely and empty because the cub is too independent and you have no sense of involvement at all?]

[Then from now on, you can issue commands to the cubs through this system!] 

Yu Xingqiao looked at the text in the system box, eyebrows slightly raised, this text style ……

Sure enough——

[For each instruction issued, 100 Gold Coins will be deducted.]

[Instruction content is limited to 15 words or less, try to be brief as possible so that the cub can understand.] 

[So what are you waiting for?]

[Come and give a simple command to the cubs to improve your communication! This is also very important for the physical and mental growth of the cub oh!]

It’s more important for Krytonite, right?

Looking at the extremely familiar style of text content, Yu Xingqiao silently spit out a sentence, but …… had to say, this function did make people look forward to it. 

The system box disappeared, a sticky note shaped icon appeared in the lower-left corner next to the pet bar.

Yu Xingqiao tapped on it and looked.

A piece of white paper floated out, titled [Command Editor] five words and a box below to edit the text into it.

The teenager tilted his head and thought about it, called up the input method and tried to enter a text. 

Jun Lu absorbed two wind magic crystals, the energy of the magic crystals converted into pure power to store in the body.

But now it was still not too late to understand.

That energy was not easy to convert; only 60% of each magic crystal can be converted. Plus his young body’s storage capacity was limited, it could barely convert two lower primary magic crystals.

 

Fortunately, he was an energy aggregator, and the magic crystal energy that failed to be transformed did not dissipate, but slowly integrated into his body to repair his injuries.

Just as quickly, Jun Lu felt that the pure power he had just converted did not exist for long before it suddenly disappeared without a trace. 

This feeling was too familiar.

Jun Lu checked the few skills he had mastered, and soon discovered that the [Shadow Cage] he had just comprehended ——had upgraded.

If his original cage was only as big as a box, it now became five boxes, directly expanding five times.

What’s more with this skill, as more things get imprisoned, it would increase his sense of weight, but now that sense of burden has diminished to almost non-existent. 

So had the master helped him upgrade his skill again?

Such an upgrade speed was simply unbelievable.

Jun Lu carefully weighed it up and didn’t take out that earth magic crystal to use it.

With his current body, the storage capacity was too low, so instead of wasting it, it would be better to wait until his injuries healed and his strength recovered some more. 

At that moment, a small line of words appeared in front of his eyes once again.

[Received host command.]

Jun Lu’s spirit was lifted, was the master finally going to give him an order?

Although he was still very weak, he would do his best to fulfill his master’s orders! 

The small golden letters, different from the system font, slowly surfaced——

“Give a jump.”

Jun Lu: “?”

Jun Lu, who was full of expectation, looked at this line of small letters and felt a strong fall and confusion all of a sudden. 

Give a jump?

Is …… like this?

 

Although he felt a little uncomfortable, Jun Lu still controlled his body and gently jumped a little towards the sky.

Falling back to the ground, he did not receive any new orders. 

Only, suddenly there was a soft sound of boing, a small round red bead appeared in front of him out of thin air.

He subconsciously stretched out his shadow tentacle and caught the small bead.

“What is this?”

[It’s candy.] 

Candy? Jun Lu froze for a moment.

He knew about this kind of food, but he had never eaten it because he was the Crown Prince and had grown up under the strictest education.

Candy, that was something that only crying cubs would eat.

Why should he be given candy? Was he treated like a crybaby? 

He was not a child!

A wave of hostility suddenly gushed out from his body, he threw it with force and the red candy flew out, landed on the ground and bounced a few times, and rolled into the grass.

[Ding~ Blacken value +5]

Yu Xingqiao stared blankly at the game screen. 

When he found out that little Jun Lu didn’t know that he had given him candy, he was feeling a bit incredulous.

How could he not have even eaten candy before? So pitiful ah.

In addition to sympathy, it was as if he saw himself in little Jun Lu.

So when the cub suddenly lost his temper and threw the candy out, Yu Xingqiao did not get angry, but felt more pitiful. 

He often threw tantrums when he was young too.

Because he could not understand. Why did his brother get to live outside with many people to accompany him, while he had to stay alone in a sterile room? And even if he went out to play, he had to dress like a little monster.

 

There were many, many other things that he couldn’t understand.

Little Jun Lu is also in this period now, right? He had suffered a huge change, had no family left in this world, and had to run for his life from various dangers. 

Although he didn’t know which sore spot he stepped on, Yu Xingqiao felt that the cub must be sad at the bottom of his heart right now.

The thought of that little boy with black hair and red eyes, with a face of rage to hide his inner vulnerability, Yu Xingqiao felt his heart seize up.

Really want to hug him ah.

Yu Xingqiao stretched out his fingers and comfortingly touched the top of the little black ball’s head. 

Jun Lu regretted the moment he threw the candy out.

His master didn’t do anything wrong.

Since the signing of the contract, his master had not only saved him from Saer’s pursuers, but had also been providing him with all kinds of help.

Although they were always treating him like a real cub and occasionally having some bad taste, in all fairness, his master had really been good to him. 

That candy just now …….

It was just a reward for completing his orders, right?

Although it made him feel twice as powerless and humiliated……

He was no longer the high and mighty crown prince of the past. He had no right to be capricious now. 

Since even the soul was sold, what was this small dignity worth?

As long as he could take revenge, as long as he could make Saer pay, he could do anything ……

Just when the negative emotions inside Jun Lu’s heart once again built up to a critical point, a familiar soothing sensation appeared on the top of his head.

It was like someone gently touching his head and then whispering in his ear: it’s okay, everything will be fine …… 

The emotions held in his heart, as if it suddenly found a vent, scattered in all directions. There was a strange feeling, like a seed was planted in his heart.

Before it thrived, no one knew what it would eventually become.

 

Feeling the force on his head gradually dissipate, Jun Lu looked to the sky as if he could feel it— a gaze falling on him, gentle and accommodating.

He withdrew his gaze and shook his head, driving the illusion away from his mind. 

His master was a powerful demon, he must not forget that.

Jun Lu jumped up gently and swept his spiritual energy around, quickly finding the red candy that had rolled into the grass.

He poked his shadow tentacles out and rolled the candy out.

When the candy fell, a small corner had shattered and the surface was covered with dust. 

“Bo Ji Bo Ji ——” the little black ball called out softly.

“Master, I’m sorry.”

Listening to the cub’s soft cry, and looking at the translation of the chat bubble, Yu Xingqiao felt his entire heart was about to melt into a puddle.

What is there to be sorry for, it’s just a candy! 

When little Jun Lu took off the pacifier and was about to roll the candy into his mouth, Yu Xingqiao quickly stopped him.

It was already dirty from the floor, how could he still eat it?

Jun Lu looked at the candy that fell to the ground once again and froze for a moment, then a bulging brocade bag suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

He took the pouch and carefully opened it to take a look. 

He saw that it was filled with candies of various colours, with a faint sweet fragrance spilling out.

He looked in the direction of the sky, then lowered his head. From the bag, he poured out a candy and placed it in his mouth.

It was a strawberry-flavoured fruit candy with a sweet and sour taste that melted away in his mouth.

Very fragrant, very delicious. 

[Ding~Congratulations on completing the side quest [Command Release], Gold +100, duckbill hat +1, lottery draw +1]

[Ding~ Cub blackened value -10]

 

[By releasing instructions and feeding candy, your relationship with the cub has improved, please keep up the good work!]

[Main task progress: 0] 

The progress of the mission is finally back from negative to positive! Yu Xingqiao was so happy, but ……

Why was there no reward for the main task? The system was so stingy? The duckbill hat was also just an ordinary decorative hat ……

Yu Xingqiao mumbled and complained. In the game, Arashi crouched in one corner and tilted his head to look at Jun Lu while watching him eat deliciously, then walked over from curiosity.

Noticing its movement, Jun Lu hurriedly tied the brocade bag. 

This was given to him by his master, how could he share it with others?

Even the red candy that fell on the ground, he wrapped it in a shadow and then locked it into his shadow.

Arashi curled its mouth and continued to twist his body, gnawing his eagle leg

Without paying attention to him, Jun Lu coolly lifted his other tentacle and stuffed the pacifier into his mouth again. 

The corpses of the python and the black eagle were no longer of much value to him. After Arashi had filled his stomach, they set off again, leaving the place and continuing eastward.

When they came to a pool of water, Jun Lu told Arashi to stop.

Arashi went to drink the water, while Jun Lu stayed quietly on a rock and looked around carefully, seemingly satisfied with his surroundings.

Then, he removed the pacifier he had been sucking on. 

What is the cub up to?

Yu Xingqiao had put his depression at the lack of reward behind him and watched the cub’s actions with some curiosity.

He didn’t feel a lack of involvement, and even if he was simply allowed to watch the cub eat, he felt he could watch him all day.

Not to mention the cub always had unexpected actions. 

After waiting for about three minutes, a few black dots appeared in the distant grass.

Yu Xingqiao pulled the camera closer to see, and found that it was actually a few animals that looked like hyenas.

 

When they saw his cub, their eyes immediately turned greedy and their saliva dripped down.

The cubs, however, remained motionless and calm, and even Arashi was restrained by him behind a rock. 

The hyenas were moving fast.

Seeing that the hyenas had gotten within five meters of each other, he only lifted his tentacles leisurely——

As soon as the pacifier was stuffed in, it was gently sucked.
