1215 Little Big Brother (1/2)
Watching Lord Meh Meh and the Sacrificial Blood Rabbit grazing upon the grass around Jun Wu Xie's feet, the little Emperor squatted quietly on one side, resting his chin upon both his palms as he watched intently. That quiet and obedient demeanor, made him really highly lovable. Even for someone as cold and indifferent as Jun Wu Xie, she could not help but praise the little Emperor in her heart.
[What an easygoing child, but that personality was not suited to be an Emperor.]
”Little Big Brother, are these two Spirit Beasts your pets?” The little Emperor asked, looking at Jun Wu Xie. Initially, he was slightly afraid of her, as Jun Wu Xie always had a cold and indifferent look on her face. But after a few days, he began to feel that it was not that difficult to get along with the little Big Brother.
”You can say that.” Jun Wu Xie replied softly.
”Will they grow bigger in the future?” The little Emperor asked innocently of Jun Wu Xie.
”I guess so.” Whether Lord Meh Meh was fully matured, she did not know, but the Sacrificial Blood Rabbit was just a Guardian Grade Spirit Beast in its infancy.
”It's so nice. I had wanted to keep one as well, but the Grand Tutor did not allow me to. The Grand Tutor said, I am the Buckwheat Kingdom's Emperor and I must maintain the image of an Emperor. But I think I do not like being the Emperor. I had a dream before, and that is to go to the Thousand Beast City! I heard that in the Thousand Beast City, Spirit Beasts are everywhere. If I can become a Spirit Beast Tamer, how great would that be…..” The little Emperor looked at the two adorable little pets, his heart full of fondness for them. ”Is little Big Brother a Spirit Beast Tamer?”
Jun Wu Xie shook her head.
”But I think little Big Brother is more awesome than a Beast Tamer. I heard that the people in the Thousand Beast City were only able to tame one Spirit Beast at a time but little Big Brother has two here. And Little One and Little Two are so obedient, little Big Brother has really trained them well.” The little Emperor said with a laugh, the two deep dimples beside the edges of his mouth making him look so adorable.
[Little One….. Little Two…..]
Towards the names the little Emperor had given to the two naive little beasts, Jun Wu Xie was really feeling helplessly torn between laughter and tears.
”Little Big Brother, if you have the chance to go to the Buckwheat Kingdom in the future, will you come look for me? Teach me how to tame Spirit Beasts….. No….. Teach me how to be friends with Spirit Beasts will you?” The little Emperor asked, his big and innocent eyes looking at Jun Wu Xie earnestly. Imperial authourity and riches in his eyes, were incomparable to the two beasts whose heads were lowered as they chewed up the grass before them.
Jun Wu Xie did not reply. She knew nothing about Beast Taming as Lord Meh Meh and the Sacrificial Blood Rabbit had stuck to her on their own volition.
In the future, when Jun Wu Xie thought back to the words the little Emperor had said to her today, she couldn't help but feel, how great it would have been if only she had agreed to the little Emperor's request at this moment.
