I’m Hui Tai Lang - Chapter 21

Chapter 21: Snow

When she woke up, I was the first person she saw.

With an adorable sleepy and drowsy-eyed look, she raised her arms and stretched with her whole body. Her chest that was clear and obvious, made my wolf heart violently pulse.

“Large Wolf, you’re awake too?” Feng Xiao smiled as she asked.

Your daddy here didn’t sleep from the start!

Standing up, my thigh that was sore from being pressed against the whole night trembled a bit, and I once again disappeared into the woods.

When I ate a lot of those Ice Attribute Crystal Stones yesterday, I found out that I was already Acquired Fifth Level after I slept.

Crystal Stones are not easy to digest, unlike the Ice Cold Fruit.

In the forest, I ran across an Acquired Third Level white deer. This adorable small animal was very nimble and it was only with great difficulty that I was able catch it.

Holding the white deer in my mouth, I returned to Feng Qing’s side, where she had already gotten a fire ready.

“You’re willing to kill even this adorable white deer?”

This woman was clearly becoming retarded. As a mercenary, her kindness would rise just because the other was adorable. I really question it, how was she able to survive this long?

It must be that the Rose Mercenary Group’s regimental command is doing a lot of work.

Although her mouth was saying she couldn’t bear it, the movements of her hands did not slow down even a bit.

The dagger was surrounded by a cyan light, and I could not see the movement of her right hand as the white deer’s fur pelt was peeled off. The internal organs and such were all placed to the side. Seeing this, I felt afraid and only then did I remember that this woman’s strength was above mine.

Today, her injury was nearly completely healed.

In her care, I was like an arrogant idler, waiting for her to feed me.

This kind of pleasure really made my reluctant to leave.

This time I, of course, paid attention, leaving a leg behind before decisively stopping myself from eating.

“Are you full?”

I nodded my head.

I can’t help but say, watching a girl eat something is also a kind of pleasure. Piece by piece, meat was stuffed into her mouth. Her eating speed was very quick, but still quite graceful.

Those pretty lips opened and closed, occasionally exposing a fine tooth. When some of the oily bits of meat stuck to the side of her mouth, a tender pink tongue would speedily clean it up. It really was quite pleasant to watch.

“Do you want some water?” After Feng Qing finished eating the meat, she took out a bottle, drinking some before asking me.

I nodded my head. After eating so much greasy food, I really was thirsty.

She placed the mouth of the bottle in mine and slowly tilted it. The water was very sweet, and the bottle was quite fragrant, or at least, I tasted some other things.

“Large Wolf, I need to go.” Feng Qing leaned against a tree and said finally, after a long while, “I’ve been out this long, Sister Mei must be worried.”

I didn’t know who Sister Mei was, but I did know that she would need to leave in the end.

“Large Wolf, how about returning with me?” Feng Qing followed my head and stroked me to my tail, her finger lingering on a strip of scar on my body, sincerely asking, “When we return, no one would dare to do this to you. I’ll give you roasted meat to eat everyday, okay?”

Is it really okay like this?

I gazed at a distant place past those thick forests and shook my head.

It’s not that I don’t want to go, it’s that I can’t go.

Acquired Fifth Level, I am still a cannon fodder. I fear there are even more broken and treacherous things in the human world, and even more cruelty. Even Feng Qing, with her strength strength, could lose her life at any time. Then what would I have gained?

Being protected by her?

Being pampered and loved by her?

In fact, that kind of life would be really good, however, it is not the type of life I need.

Even if I needed to go to the human world, I would still need to have strength first, before taking a look.

Compared to relying on another person, I want to rely on myself.

Besides, life as a member of the Snow Wolf Race isn’t anything bad. Although there isn’t cooked meat or any beauties I liked, at least I obtained a fixed position after working hard for a long time. I don’t need to be afraid of betrayal from my race.

Foster mother and Miki, I also would somewhat hate to part with.

“You’re not leaving with me?”

I very regretfully nodded my head. There were a lot of words I wanted to say in my heart, but I was unable to say them.

The body’s restriction of not being able to speak the human language made me feel very vexed.

“Then you should leave first!”

Clenching my teeth, I turned my body and activated Gale, jumping over a large collapsed tree. Rapidly traveling into the forest before turning around again, my escape route sheltered by the dense forest.

Did I regret it?

Of course. Every single choice I make will be regretful, but I still have to keep walking on the path.

Clearing identifying the direction of the Snow Wolf Race, I crazily ran through the forest, relying only on my reaction ability. If I met a obstruction, I would turn quickly. There were several times I would almost knock against the trees and rocks, but I didn’t stop even once.

The surroundings did not have any formidable demon beasts, since this was the region the Snow Wolf Race was active in. As long as they were not Innate Level demon beasts, they all would not dare to contend against them, that was the power of a community race.

Hearing the hu hu sound of the wind by my ear along with the slight resistance on my face, my chaotic mind gradually became tranquil.

I like this feeling of the wind.

It makes me feel as if I can almost fly.

The wind attribute spirit power in the air speedily drilled into my body, it looked like none of the wind attribute spirit power was wasted in my body.

I didn’t know how long I ran. I only stopped to gasp for breath after my physical strength was exhausted.

The System Voice echoed by my ear: “Host’s understanding of the Wind Concept (Primary)”.

The sky was very gloomy, as snow fell from the sky, a snowflake landed on my nose and very quickly melted.

What month was it?

This world’s weather is pretty hard to determine.

By the time I returned to the snow wolf pack, the snow had already became a layer, a vast expanse of whiteness.

The Snow Wolf Race’s large force was there.

When Miki saw me return, she very happily called out to me and came over, wagging her tail, and acting very affectionately.

However, as I was very tired, I didn’t even have the energy to return the greeting.

Laying on the ground, like the other snow wolves, I let the snow fall on my body.

“What’s wrong, you’re not in a good mood?” Yao Yao’s voice echoed by my ear, “You really want to change into a human to go with that Feng Qing woman inseparably?”

“You were around all along?”

“It can’t can be considered that. Every time you complete a mission, I will automatically wake up.”

I firmly remembered this crucial point. If I ever had any secrets, it would be best if she wasn’t present.

“Actually, I was also surprised. You could unexpectedly leave her. I thought you would obediently go become a house pet!”

“Am I that kind of wolf?”

“You are!” Yao Yao said with certainty.

“Actually I was also amazed, what’s so bad about being a pet!” Miki laid down and leaned against me as I continued to talk with Yao Yao, “I could eat cooked meat everyday and could live in a warm and cozy house. I could maybe even hold a beautiful woman to sleep. I wouldn’t need to go out and hunt everyday. I am regretting my choice now.”

“Then you can go chase after her, perhaps you will even catch up.”

“Forget about it. A good horse doesn’t go back to the same pasture.”

TL Note: One should not go back to one’s past experiences

“Oh, that’s right, your harvest this time was really big. Why not take a look at the system?” Yao Yao asked.

“Can you get rid of the evaluations at the end? Every time I see it, it hurts my eyes!”

“As a System, I only have this bit of delight. Can you not empathize with me a bit?”

There really is nothing I can do about Yao Yao.
