Chapter 67: Gifting the ungrateful Pup!
Chapter 67: Gifting the ungrateful Pup!
There were two egg-toast in the lunch box. One was meant for Lily while the other for Whittaker, but Lily wanted him to eat both of them. Though Whittaker had split it equally with Lily. He was using Devansha's eyes, so splitting the egg-toast in two equal half by using a knife wasn't a hard task, rather too simple as in his eyes, even the egg beneath the bread could be somewhat seen.
Whittaker and Lily ate the egg-toast, each lost in a world of their own. Lily was just staring at him, wondering whether he liked the food or not. His expression will tell her all. That's why she was staring at him with her ocean eyes.
After taking two small bites, Whittaker's battle energy increased by 0.1. Happiness bubbled out from his satisfied stomach as his total battle energy increased to 2 points, almost immediately, a notification popped up,
Daily Quest activated: Preparation for becoming an expert battle master.
Level up the Guardian Class.
Rewards: 1 Battle energy per level up
'Nice!' Thanks to Lily, his battle energy has increased to 2 points and had activated a system quest. He felt grateful to her.
Reflexively, Whittaker gazed at his secondary class on the character screen.
[Secondary class: Guardian Level 0 (0/1700 XP)]
He needed 400 more experience points to level up the guardian class as his total amount of XP was 1300 points.
Seeing the happiness bubbling up in his face, Lily fist-bumped her heart while shouting "Yahoo!" in her mind. Her mother had advised her, "Strike when the iron is hot!".
She wanted to deepen her relationship with Whittaker, so she shyly asked the snowy-haired boy with expectation filled eyes,
"Um, Whittaker, if you don't mind then I can bring such a breakfast for you every day! My mother is a great cook, so am I. You won't be disappointed at what we cook for you!"
Without any hesitation, Whittaker instantly replied while staring right into her mesmerizing eyes,
"I would love it!" Simultaneously, he thought, 'A single 4-star breakfast that she and her mother has cooked can increase my battle energy by 2 points. This 4-star breakfast wasn't as tasty as Christopher Crispy Golden Fried-chicken, but it was still higher ranked. I only need to eat such breakfast twenty times, and I would become an E-ranked battle master!'
In the awakened continent, Whittaker's reply meant that the man has accepted to take the woman's hand in marriage!
While eating the egg-toast, Whittaker gazed to the side and saw her staring blankly at him with an amazed expression. She thought, 'Mother was right, indeed!'
Lily didn't know that Whittaker was a "Commoner" so she was certain that Whittaker had accepted her proposal. Now, Whittaker only needed to give her a gift, and this proposal would be certified. She was staring at him with wide-opened eyes filled with high expectations and in her heart, she held intense curiosity about his gift. 'What will he give me? The better the gift the greater our future will be!'
In the awakened continent, the last step of this proposal was a boy handing over something to the girl. It is said by the Divination King, "The more a girl likes the gift the better her love life will be with her chosen one!"
Whittaker pulled his gaze away from her, gazing back at the enchanting scenery, he wondered why she used the legendary skill "Puppy eyes" on him.
Soon after, he blinked his eyes as a thought crossed his mind, and he turned towards Lily, and said,
"Oh yeah, the class are only held three days a week, how will you"
Reflexively, Lily extended her hands towards Whittaker before he could finish his words. In between her petite and soft palms, a mana com was placed, taking it in his hand, Whittaker exchanged his contact information with her.
Right then, he sensed something happening in his soul space. Whittaker closed his eyes to feel his soul space. Soon after, he saw the two adorable wolf pups making heart-melting noises. From their eyes and actions, Whittaker inferred that they were trying to say, 'Papa, we are hungry!'
The egg-toast was only half-eaten and he decided to share some of it with the wolf pups. It's cuz, later on, he was gonna feed them the snack bar the system has given him.
With a single thought, he immediately summoned the two wolf pups in front of him. With a poof, the two pups appeared in the world, and Lily found herself instantly attracted to them.
Whittaker tore some of the bread and fed them to the winter wolf pup and the luna wolf pup. These magical pups have genes that allow them to digest carbohydrates, so there wasn't a problem with feeding them bread.
The two pups opened their tiny mouth to devour the bread crumbs instantly. This was the most energy-filled food they have ever eaten in their life. They instantly purr in bless.
'Can I touch them?' Lily asked. Touching someone else magical beasts without permission was an action that leads to an instant fight. A magical beast only allows its owner and the people allowed by its owner to touch them, after all.
Whittaker nods given her his permission, and Lily immediately pat the cutest one. Right after, she gives some love to the other pup that gave her puppy eyes. The cutest of the pup was naturally the Luna wolf, and Lily was attracted to her cuteness.
[Luna wolf pup Loyalty point dropped to zero. The Luna wolf pup has a desire in her heart and mind. She wants to break off her contract with you to become Lily's magical beast pet]
'????' Whittaker was amazed by the notification that suddenly popped up. He has never seen such a shameless magical beast before. He was feeding her, yet her loyalty laid elsewhere.
Right then, Lily asked, "Can I keep her?"
Lily was feeding him a 4-star breakfast that is worth 1000+ platinum bar, so he didn't hesitate to give away the shameless pup that ignored the hand that fed her.
Lily was all smile as she received her token of love. A cute luna wolf pup, this was the best gift she could ask for!
By the time Whittaker finished his breakfast, his battle energy has increased to 3.5 points. During the meal, he casually chatted with Lily and found out some important information.
Lily was the daughter of the Master of Frost Fall City. Frost Fall City Master was the youngest son of the Northern Duke. Northern Duke and Headmaster Yeon were once general serving under the ancient Water Emperor, who is said to be dead. Northern Duke was the most beloved and aggressive son of the Ancient Water Emperor, hence he joined the army against the will of his beloved father to fight against the Abbadon savages hundreds of years ago.
Headmaster Yeon was called the great general of dusk while the Northern Duke was entitled the Divine Warrior blessed by the Sun.
In his peak, the Northern Duke was classified as an A-ranked battle master, but he went toe to toe with a 7 chaos leaves Abaddon Shaman.
Lily was also his most favorite granddaughter!
