Chapter 94: Pengu's recovery
I don't know who I should be to not understand this gesture. With the memory of its fluffy fur, I can't help but follow its suggestion and place my hand on its head.
In just a moment, a feeling of insane softness overwhelms my palm. While I don't want to admit it loudly, it's even comparable to Eve's naked body! Can you imagine an animal fur so comfortable to be on par with woman body?
As I rub its head while listening to its purring, I can't help but notice the differences between the old and current pengu. Even while ignoring the most obvious change in its size that I was responsible for, I guess that sucking its excess energy off allowed it to break its bottleneck.
Just by touching its head, I can feel the residue energy of its aura, still looming in a thin layer around its body, ready to activate and act as a shield at any time. I guess that our fight pushed it to develop certain defence systems as well!
Even if I'm not knowledgable about the way in which the magical beasts evolve and grow, I guess it has something to do with consuming either highly energetical herbs, resolving their innate or attained flaws or simply by overcoming some hurdles with time.
Just like a puppy beer can be considered cute and harmless, the same animal will grow to be a forest killing machine with just sufficient time and food! I guess that might be the case here as well, just that the required food might need to be of entirely difrent quality.
Maybe the animals need to amass both the time and energy to grow? Like, if the pengu lived on these lands for a long time already and the only thing that he lacked was a big amount of energetical food, that would explain its insanely fast growth!
While I know that you might be angry at me using such terms, when I managed to reach the mortal bottleneck in just a few days, not only do I have a system to help me do so, growing in the mortal realm is uncomparably easier than doing the same in the spirit realm! In one of the books that I used to take for fantasy back in my family turf, there was a quote stating that real cultivation starts only at spirit levels!
Just in case, spirit attainment level is still considered a mortal realm! Even if the name of this growth level is similar to a spirit realm, it is just a first step one needs to take to even prepare to break the bottleneck! Even if we have developed a dual spirit with Eve, we still need to develop the spiritual core to call ourself a real spirit cultivators!
As I sink in my thoughts while patting Pengu's fluffy head, I notice a small wound on its right fin! Suddenly severing my consciousness from the comfortable feeling of its fur, I remember the one desperate attack that I launched back then to get rid of the ultraviolet sword. While I don't feel bad for cutting Pengu's fin end in self-defence, I was sure it will grow it back!
With a sudden thought appearing in my mind, I pull my hand back only to take the trophy from my storage ring and pass it to pengu! I don't know why I'm doing this, but just by letting me pat its head, this smart beast acquired my sympathy!
I know, I'm just a psychically weak earthling! I can't say no to women or fluffiness! I just hope there are no drugs in this world, otherwise, I might end up at the bottom of the social ladder with my lack of self-control!
As soon as its fin end sees the light of the day, Pengu instantly froze, before grabbing it and trying to attach it to the scar on its right fin. Sadly, nothing happens!
While I can see some fluctuations of the energy trying to pass through already closed wound, the size difference makes it impossible to connect the flow of energy between two parts!
With a sudden flash of insight, an idea appears in my head. Taking the cutaway part of its fin away from its hands? I take a few steps back and pull out my windslord. After assessing the size of its current fit, I simply cut a small bit out of the spare part, so that it will fit the size of its current wound!
This time, as I pass the small bit of meat back to Pengu, it instantly connects to its body!
While even I can feel that the density of its aura lowered a bit, it turned a lot more wholesome at the same time, as if a big bridge got at last finished and opened for use on an insanely busy highway!
With the sudden changes happening to its aura, I could see a glint of wisdom appearing in its eyes, before everything calmed back down. Unsure as to if anything will change in its attitude now, I brace myself for potential fight
Only to be tackled to the ground in an instant, by overwhelmingly powerful pengu, that keeps rubbing its soft head against my chest!
Oh, come on, what the hell is wrong with this world? Where is the suspense? Where are the powerful enemies? How the hell the strongest being I have met so far, is rubbing its soft fur against my clothes? Am I actually some kind of dumb protagonist in a stupid novel for masses written without a proper plan or idea behind it? If that's the case, I really want to kill the author of this story right here and now! CURSE YOU!
But let's be honest. Comparing my life to a book doesn't make any sense. After all, who would be interested in reading about my adventures? From what I remember, the books are supposed to be interesting, so I can safely eliminate that option right here and now.
Pushing gently the pengu away, I look it in its eyes.
"Listen sweety, we really need to go train. Could you guide us towards the area border in that direction?"
