Ch. 77 'Cute Black Puppy'

If she knew that a cute puppy wanted to meet her, Xiao Yue would without a doubt let it in! That way she didn't need to be lonely in this dark cold place.

Xiao Yue opened her barrier creating a small hole enough for the cute animal to pass. Xiao Yue chuckled to see the cute thing jump in excitement.

"Hello there, what a cute little thing you are!" Xiao Yue stretched her hand to feel its softness and giggle as the pup licked her feet playfully.

For a few moments, Xiao Yue had fun with the puppy as if she had forgotten that the old man was still there watching.

Ling Duan almost lost hope when he saw Xiao Yue's supposedly sharp eyes now fading because the girl decided to give up. But seeing the girl joking around just because of a puppy, his gaze softened.

Maybe this puppy could coax her out of this comfort zone?

Besides, Ling Duan knew the true form of this puppy. It must be the fusion energy of the black knight.

If Xiao Yue could accept this puppy inside, doesn't that mean that the door to Xiao Yue's closed heart has now opened?

Ling Duan looked at one hand which now began to be somewhat transparent almost disappeared. Time is up. He had to get out of this place before his astral soul was damaged because he broke into this place by force.

"Princess Yue, I can't be here any longer. You only have less than two hours before your heart stops beating. Please, think carefully."

"..." Xiao Yue did not answer quickly. Her heart became cloudy once again when she didn't feel the presence of the old man anymore.

Fortunately, she wasn't sad anymore as the puppy put its soft paws on her feet while letting its tongue out. Xiao Yue laughed at the ticklish of her toes as it wagging its tail.

"Hey, what are you doing here? How did you come here?" Xiao Yue lifted the black tiny pup in the air so that their eyes could be aligned.

Instead of answering, the cute puppy licked her face with enthusiasm to make her laugh again.

"You know, you shouldn't be here. I'm going to die soon. You better get out of this place immediately."

As if understanding the sentence, the pup whined sadly. Its black eyes were glazed while its sharp ears folded back. Seeing the pitiful expression of the puppy softened her heart and willing to do anything for it.

"Don't put a face like that. I don't want to see you sad like this."

Once again the little creature licked her face with its small tongue.

"Okay. What do you want me to do then?"

All of sudden the cute pup shook violently asking to be lowered. It twisted its tail happily made Xiao Yue laugh for the nth time.

Ah, when did the last time she laughs? She couldn't even remember it.

After Xiao Yue took down the tiny animal, the pup jumped in the direction he had entered.

"You want me to get out of here?"

Its tail wobbling faster with its tongue sticking out as if it felt enthusiastic that Xao Yue would be out of this place.

"Even you want me to get out of here." a heavy sigh escaped her lips.

The puppy seemed didn't realize her change of mood, it kept jumping with excitement towards the outside then turned to look at her with an enthusiastic eye.

Xiao Yue didn't want to get out of this place at all. But seeing the gaze of cheerfulness of the cute little one that made her not have the heart. She did not want to destroy the joy in the eyes of the little thing.

"Okay." Xiao Yue let out a resigned sigh. "I will do what you want."

After that, she got up after the puppy who had already gone to the barrier.

Now both of them stand right in front of the border of her barrier. Xiao Yue once again looked down at where the black-fur pup was staring at her with enthusiasm.

Xiao Yue took a deep breath before pressing her hand against the barrier wall.

There was a cracking sound around them. A second later the barrier shattered into pieces followed by a bright light that was so blinding replaced the darkness. It was too bright making Xiao Yue had to cover her eyes.

Then some voices and faces burst out in her head.

'Hi, are you the new kid? My name is Karyn, the wind Elementalist. You?'

'Don't! He is from the wolf clan. Don't you know? Don't try to wake the sleeping beast, otherwise, you will...be eaten.'

'Do you mind if I sit here?'

'Are you afraid of me?'

'How about you join my team?'

'Niken, if you don't mind, can I pick you up to school from tomorrow? And also... I want to take you home every day from now on.'

And many others that showed her how happy she was being with her new friends.

She also remembered when her brother told her about her becoming someone's inamorata. She also remembered her feelings whenever she was with Kazuto.

She was charmed, she was enchanted and she was happy.

She... She fell in love with Kazuto at first sight!

Xiao Yue was too excited about her own newfound feelings. She wanted to share it with the little pup only to have a shock by what she saw.

The little cute black puppy was nowhere to be found. Instead, there was a huge black wolf!
