Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 614 - 615: "Meow?!"

5/12

As Jefiel was still lost in his fantasy of a second spring, he was suddenly struck with horror when he realized that the beast-eared girl holding his face was not about to gently kiss him as he had imagined, but instead...

In the next moment,

Under Jefiel’s horrified gaze,

The beast-eared girl licked her lips, then slowly opened her mouth. What was once a cherry-like, enticing little mouth expanded to a size beyond human limits. As she opened her mouth, sharp fangs were revealed. The elegance and gentleness in her red eyes disappeared, replaced by ferocity and a bloodthirsty mood.

To those blood-red eyes, Jefiel was nothing but a helpless lamb ready for slaughter.

Delicious and defenseless,

’?!!’

’No?!’

’What, what, what is she...’

" Monster aaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!"

Jefiel screamed in agony, desperately trying to break free from the beast-eared girl’s grasp.

Unfortunately,

Before he could muster his meager level 5 holy magic, the beast-eared girl’s gaping maw loomed large in Jefiel’s vision.

*Crunch~*

Jefiel’s voice abruptly stopped.

His entire head was bitten off by the beast-eared girl. Blood gushed like a fountain from his neck, staining the nearby grass and the girl’s dress.

’?!!’

"What is the meaning of this?!"

Witnessing this sanity-shattering scene, Zandoro, the other Red Cardinal behind Jefiel, let out a terrified yell, fear spreading through his heart like a virus. Along with fear, hatred also grew.

Turning his head towards the black-haired man leisurely sipping tea in the distance, Zandoro roared with all his might,

"Duke Xiao! You! You deceived us!! You bast..."

However,

Before he could finish,

The body of the beast-eared girl continued to swell. In front of Zandoro’s despairing gaze, she transformed into a gigantic white wolf. With a swipe of her paw, Zandoro’s head was instantly turned to mush...

Afterward,

The transformed wolf wagged its tail excitedly, devouring the two Cardinals’ corpses bit by bit, occasionally making pleased "meow" sounds...

...

Xiao: "…"

Watching the bloody scene unfolding not far away, observing the giant wolf greedily devouring the human flesh, Xiao’s handsome face gradually revealed a look of utter disappointment.

"Sigh..."

He sighed deeply, raising his hand to his forehead, rubbing his temples vigorously.

"That look in my eyes, the angle of my gaze raised thirty degrees, was meant to instruct you to deal with them, not to eat them… And with so many distinguished guests around, how could you just start eating like this?!! Is your head filled only with thoughts of food?!"

Xiao rose from his chair, pointing at the giant wolf and yelling angrily.

Clearly,

He was quite disappointed with the wolf’s brutal behavior.

Even his mentality seemed slightly shaken.

Broken all over the ground,

"Nature cannot be easily changed... Damn, why did I agree to Madam Yumo’s request to turn Limo, this goofy girl, into a lady?! I’m really asking for trouble!! Was my brain hit by a cannonball at that time?!"

Xiao, out of character, began frantically slapping his own head.

Elegance, composure, and the dignity of a higher-up, at this moment, were all thrown out of his mind.

Merely through a few actions, the beast-eared... ah, no, goofy silly wolfy girl, had achieved an unprecedented feat of delivering such a powerful mental attack to the Duke of Black Rose.

However,

Limo, currently indulged in her feast, was obviously unaware of the incredible feat she had accomplished. Due to the rarity of the feast, especially with food rich in Holy energy, she was so focused that she didn’t hear Xiao’s angry shouts.

"Meow~" (So tasty, so tasty~)

"Ugh..."

At this moment, Xiao couldn’t hold back anymore.

Under the complex gaze of numerous Black Rose Knights, Xiao teleported instantly beside the giant wolf and gave a fierce blow to its head!

*Clang~*

With a crisp sound, Limo, struck hard on the head, shook her head, her ears and tail drooping, looking pitifully at Xiao, as if asking what she did wrong to deserve a hit on the head.

From his past experience in the cold winter forest with Limo and his recent ’goofy’ language enhancement, Xiao could barely decipher the meaning behind Limo’s aggrieved eyes.

Then,

Xiao frowned:

"Limo, you still have the nerve to ask..."

Displaying a ’kind’ smile, Xiao slowly raised his hand in a chopping motion, frightening Limo into quickly raising a paw to protect her head.

"Meow~" (Wuuu, don’t hit me, I’ll get dumb qwq)

However,

Just as Xiao’s hand was about to strike, a blue silhouette, surrounded by dazzling blue light, hurriedly rushed from afar and stood protectively in front of Xiao:

"Duke, please don’t hit Sister Limo anymore, she’s already pitiful enough."

"Wanya?"

Seeing his secretary blocking his path, Xiao’s brow furrowed slightly:

"What are you doing?"

"Sigh, Duke."

Wanya shook her head helplessly, then gently patted the head of the white wolf behind her:

"Sister Limo has already improved a lot Duke, don’t be so demanding."

"Improved..."

"Yes, think about it. Compared to her wild and untamed state when she first arrived in Salva Forest, Limo has become much better now. Although she is far from being a real lady, at least she can maintain the appearance of one when she is still. You saw how well-behaved Limo was standing next to Leo, right?"

"Well,"

Convinced by Wanya’s words, Xiao gradually calmed down.

Thinking about it,

After two months of arduous training, Limo, dressed in a gown, with a little makeup and grooming, indeed had the demeanor of a young lady from a reputable family. Of course, the condition was that Limo shouldn’t move or speak. Once she did, the ladylike atmosphare would immediately collapse.

Well,

Lately, she could walk a few steps without revealing her goofy nature, as long as she didn’t walk too fast.

The fact that only such a small achievement was made after two months of exhaustive training was indeed hard for Xiao to accept.

But, thinking about it, treating Limo with the same standards as the other members of the Black Rose family might have been too harsh.

After all,

Their intellects were not on the same starting line...

With this in mind, Xiao resignedly shook his head:

"Enough, enough, the task is heavy and the road is long."

Saying this,

Xiao lowered his hand, and the dark aura surrounding the Duke of Black Rose dissipated.

Feeling that the crisis was over, Limo cautiously peeked her head from behind Wanya, After ensuring Xiao wouldn’t hit her again, the wolf pup let out another ’meow’ of celebration~

Subsequently, Limo continued her feast without a care in the world.

Xiao: "..."

It must be noted, for Limo, few things were more important than a good meal!

Watching Limo transform back into a ’foodie wolf,’ Xiao helplessly raised his hand to his forehead and sighed deeply. he wasn’t sure if it was just his perception, but ever since Limo arrived at the Black Rose family’s territory, it seemed he had been sighing more and more each day...

’Truly, this is exhausting….’

He was beginning to understand a bit of the challenges Yumo faced in raising children.

After shaking his head and pondering for a moment, Xiao turned his attention to his secretary Wanya, who was petting Limo’s fluffy head:

"What’s up? Did you come back suddenly because there’s something important to report?"

"Yes, there is something."

Wanya nodded slightly:

"Sebastian just sent a message saying that Madam Yumo is planning a birthday party for Miss Yuan’er next month."

"A birthday party? So, I am invited?"

"Yes, and not just you, but also me and all our family’s senior leaders. Moreover, Madam Yumo specifically asked us to bring Limo along. All of Madam’s children are expected to attend."

"Hah!!!?"
