Chapter 454: Chapter 271: Tearless Sorrow of the Twelve_2
That day, Dad made a compromise. As long as Xu Ran dared to come looking for itself, it would let itself leave.
Although the time it had spent with Xu Ran wasn’t too long, Twelve was certain that it hadn’t chosen the wrong person. He would definitely come!
But when he would come, Twelve had no way of predicting.
It just hoped that Xu Ran would come sooner rather than later.
As Twelve was sighing, an excited voice approached rapidly from a distance.
“Chirp~” (Twelve sis! I’m here again!)
Twelve’s eyes quickly regained their sparkle, and it turned to look at another Velvet Sparrow waddling its way toward itself with a bit more of a smile in its eyes.
That was the Nightmare Beast King’s sixteenth daughter, the one among all its children with whom it had the best relationship.
After returning here, Xiaoxiao would run over every day to listen to it talk about what it saw and heard in the world of humans. This was also one of the few amusements it had to relieve its boredom throughout the day.
“Chirp~” (Xiaoxiao, come over, come over!)
Twelve scooted over to the side to make room for its younger sister, Sixteen.
A moment later, the two Velvet Sparrows lay side by side, basking their rotund bellies in the sunshine, and started chirping away in conversation.
“Chirp~” (Where did I leave off yesterday?)
“Chirp!” (Twelve sis! Yesterday, you left off at using Mind Induction to help the humans in the city find their dog! Then what? Did you find it?)
“Chirp… Chirp!” (I remember now… Stupid dog!)
Twelve’s eyes showed a recollective gleam, and after a moment, it couldn’t help but roll its eyes.
The dog it found kept barking at it non-stop, nearly giving it a fright!
“Chirp~” (Well, after that…)
Twelve organized its words then continued the story where it had left off yesterday, recounting its experiences in the human city.
Next to it, Xiaoxiao’s equally azure eyes began to reveal a touch of longing and yearning.
The cities of humans sounded so interesting.
It was just a pity that she didn’t have the same talent as Twelve sis and was much more timid. Sneaking out of the Core Area of Beast Field and into human cities was something she could only dream of.
The two Velvet Sparrows talked for quite some time before Xiaoxiao reluctantly got up from Twelve’s nest.
“Chirp~” (Twelve sis, I have to go for today’s training.)
The Nightmare Beast King was quite strict with its children, organizing daily training to hone their Talent Skills. Only Twelve, who was exceptionally gifted and had reached the pinnacle of proficiency at the Elite Stage early on, could avoid such group training.
“Chirp~” (Off you go, off you go~)
Twelve waved its little chubby wing at its sister, then suddenly seemed to think of something and asked in a lower voice.
“Chirp?” (What about the resources you were helping me scout for?)
At this, Xiaoxiao’s eyes flashed a human-like shade of helplessness.
“Chirp~” (No one has heard of the Dreamer’s Shadow.)
“Chirp… Chirp~” (As for the Dream Weaving Silkworm Silk… the ones that were in the treasury, Dad used them just recently, the day before you were brought back.)
Twelve’s azure eyes dimmed again, and it continued to lie there like a salted fish, waving its little fat wings at its sister to signal her to leave first.
After Sixteen had gone, Twelve couldn’t help but sigh deeply.
Damn it!
It had thought that by coming to the land of a richer Extraordinary Creature Group, it could start collecting some of the resources it needed for evolution.
It had never expected that of the three most important main materials, two were untraceable.
At this thought, Twelve’s face couldn’t help but take on a wanting-to-cry-but-having-no-tears expression.
If things kept going like this, when would it be able to evolve?
It wouldn’t be that by the time its peers completed their second evolution, it still hadn’t evolved, would it?
Surely not, surely not?
