Chapter 441 (2/2)

Tigress was satisfied with their reactions. Their shock was a lot more dramatic than hers!

“It’s simple. I found a real fox tail and ears, adjusted its structure then fixed it with alchemy. That’s why it can move whenever I want it to! Look, my ears are moving, and my tail…” Ye Lang wiggled his ears and tail exactly like how a fox beastman would.

“...”

With this gimmick, no one would know he was human- let alone recognise him as Ye Lang. Tigress, you don’t have to worry about the kid.

Athena was no longer worried for Ye Lang because she wouldn’t have noticed him even if he didn’t change the rest of his features. Right now, he even gave himself long hair and he was now a changed man.

To match his fox features and cover his human ears, Ye Lang gave himself a head of silver hair like Athena’s.

And just like that, a foxy teenager, Apollo, was born. He would create ripples in this world…

“Master, you have to be careful! Don’t tell anyone who you are and return as soon as possible once you retrieve the armour. Don’t get involved in anything else, remember to look for Anna’s team this time. I don’t want you following the wrong group again,” reminded Tigress once again.

They had arranged for Ye Lang to meet Anna’s Mercenary Group once he had retrieved the item so they could immediately escort him back to the tribal lands. Anna’s group was the best team they could trust for now.

“I know, you’ve told me five times! I’m not an idiot, I remember!” said Ye Lang.

“You ARE an idiot! You can be very clueless at times… Athena, remember to watch him!” instructed Tigress.

“Don’t worry, I will! I don’t think you’re his servant, tiger girl, you sound more like his mom…” teased Athena. She thought Tigress was overthinking the mission.

“Hmmph! As long as you do your job!” scoffed Tigress.

Athena’s words were not far from the truth. Tigress had always been by his side since he was young. She played many roles in his life and being a nagging mom was one of them.

“We’re leaving. Don’t be so naggy!” Ye Lang said very honestly and hopped unto a carriage containing boxes of goods. He sat on one of the boxes and waved them goodbye.

Their tribe did not own any guest carriages, all their carriages were meant for goods transport. That was why Ye Lang wasn’t allocated his own comfortable carriage. He didn’t mind though, they were all the same to him.

The rest rode their own horses instead. Ye Lang had to travel by carriage because he didn’t know how to ride one.

Soon after, the entire group slowly left for the Imperial City. Tigress stood watching as they grew smaller, then returned home once she could no longer see them.

“Master, why did you choose to be a fox? Why not a tiger?” asked Athena at some point.

“The foxes are weaker, they don’t have to do anything. Tigers are expected to be strong and carry heavy stuff- I don’t have that time, I’m very weak!” Ye Lang replied honestly.

“...”

So that was why he chose to be a fox! He didn’t want to move his ass, spending his days lazing around. Perhaps living a fox’s life was the most comfortable route for him, for they did not participate in laborious tasks.
