Chapter 4: Chapter 4: Skills
"Xiaoguang! Xiaoguang!"
Just as Xu Guang was thinking about how to increase intimacy with the giant elephant and acquire the Elephant Envoy skills, voices ca from outside.
Imdiately, he saw Sun Changlian pulling Old Li coming this way.
The two walked one after the other, looking at Xu Guang stroking the giant elephant’s long hair with amazent.
Even though they had seen this scene in the morning, each ti they saw it, it still filled them with excitent.
A fixation on size is a yearning ingrained in everyone’s bones.
Just like in his past life, Xu Guang played Gold Shovel and inexplicably yearned for things to grow larger.
In the presence of such a huge creature, a person standing beside it can clearly discern their own insignificance.
"What’s the matter?"
Xu Guang asked loudly while stroking the giant elephant’s long hair.
Sun Changlian retracted his envious gaze and said, "Brother Xu, Steward Wang wants to see you."
Xu Guang fell silent for a mont, thinking a lot.
The steward wanted to see him, most likely to confirm whether he had the ability to ta great beasts; perhaps Sun Changlian had already told the steward, but the steward might not trust him.
He realized that the steward must be uncertain about this matter, which is why Sun Changlian and the other person were asked to call him over, rather than the steward coming himself.
Going over at this ti, just talking could earn so rewards, but it would not be as shocking as the steward witnessing him ta the elephant.
So he waved his hand.
"No way, this is the most crucial ti for taming the great beast, Yuan Head, please explain to the steward."
Sun Changlian was surprised, "But..."
"Rest assured, although I’ve only t the steward once, I believe he is a reasonable person. Just tell the truth."
Sun Changlian nodded.
"Do you need anything over here?"
Xu Guang was slightly pleased, having always made preparations for taming the elephant in recent days, now it was ti to gain so benefits for himself.
"Get so at! Although elephants eat grass and fruit, occasionally they need so at to grow stronger, please get so at, Yuan Head."
"at?" Sun Changlian glanced at the giant figure of the elephant and rembered the nearly 300 pounds of grass and fruit consud daily.
This elephant, wouldn’t it require two pigs a day!
"Not too much, just twenty or thirty pounds will do, each giant beast needs a different at-to-vegetable ratio, I need to match it slowly."
Xu Guang spoke in a very professional manner.
Sun Changlian nodded seriously, rembering Xu Guang’s words clearly.
The steward had said before that nothing in this manor was as important as this great beast.
...
Pork in this era really slled quite strong.
Fortunately, it was fatty enough, after Xu Guang removed so of the sll with ash, he directly skewered it and began to grill it on the stove.
As the flas grilled, the slices of at sizzled and oozed oil.
’What a sha, there are no spices.’
Xu Guang drooled, feeling a bit of regret.
It was hard to wait until the at was finally cooked through.
Just then.
The elephant that had been soaking in the puddle suddenly got up and walked towards Xu Guang.
With a swing of its huge trunk, it easily whisked away the freshly grilled at Xu Guang had just taken out.
Xu Guang: ...
He stared dumbfounded at the scene before him.
No way, this was what I asked for myself, you’re really eating it!
Xu Guang was on the verge of tears.
On the other side, the giant elephant, after eating the grilled at, looked at Xu Guang again, its giant trunk constantly sweeping over Xu Guang.
The hidden imnse force was clearly conveyed to Xu Guang with the gentle sway of the trunk.
Xu Guang had no doubt, if the trunk squeezed slightly, he would beco at paste.
"I’ll grill again for you..."
Xu Guang gritted his teeth.
The thirty pounds of pork, he had originally planned to use for nourishing himself.
Forget it, if the giant elephant really liked to eat it, he would just ask Sun Changlian for more tomorrow.

Xu Guang’s heart rejoiced, the pain of the grilled at being eaten by the giant elephant vanished into thin air.
"Great, after days of exploring skills without any success, who would’ve thought giving you a al of grilled at would do the trick."
...
Ti flew by.
In the blink of an eye, two days had passed.
The relationship between Xu Guang and the giant elephant grew increasingly harmonious, thanks to the Professional Talent [Elephant Contract], as trust increased, an intangible connection ford between him and the giant elephant.
A mysterious link similar to a spiritual connection.
He could vaguely understand each action and sound of the giant elephant.
As they beca familiar, the giant elephant could also engage in so communication with him through this spiritual link.
Giant elephants are not truly carnivorous, eating at is just to et so trace elent needs.
With the addition of skill points to the Elephant Cuisine skill and the newly acquired skill [Elephant Traces] while studying the elephant’s body, Xu Guang quickly understood why the elephant would eat at.
Consuming thirty pounds of pork at once is not the norm, according to Xu Guang’s understanding of the giant elephant before him, it should be satisfied with eating two to three pounds daily for growth.
[Elephant Traces lv1 (12/20): Constantly understanding every tiny change happening on the giant elephant, ensuring better growth]
This [Elephant Envoy] profession is entirely to enable Xu Guang to better ta elephants, and all the skills are as well.
Of course, Xu Guang didn’t think this profession was weak, quite the contrary, he thought it was strong.
The combination of the Elephant Cuisine and Elephant Traces skills allowed Xu Guang to better understand the current condition of the giant elephant, creating the most appropriate als, enabling it to grow rapidly.
Moreover, with each increase in skill proficiency, new insights ca to him.
’Perhaps, if the Elephant Envoy profession grows to a certain extent, I might be able to evolve the giant elephant...’
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but feel grateful to Old Li and the young lady who had given him half a roasted chicken and hadn’t even left her palanquin.
Without that young lady, he wouldn’t have returned to the abandoned house at the large fair and wouldn’t have t Old Li again.
Perhaps he would still be wandering and begging right now.
...
The next day.
In the morning.
Xu Guang was in the wooden house of the Elephant House, with grilled at and fruits placed before him, eating and handing so to the extended trunk.
The days were nothing short of delightful.
"This is what a transmigrator should have! If there were two beautiful maids serving by my side, it wouldn’t be inferior to those transmigrators reborn into wealthy families!"
After all, they still had to face various crises, but Xu Guang didn’t need to worry about so much, just by taking good care of the elephant, he could live comfortably.
While thinking of this, he saw a group of five or six people in the distance approaching through the wind and snow, led by none other than Steward Wang.
Xu Guang’s heart stirred, calling out in his Heart Spirit.
The giant elephant responded.
Imdiately there was a rumbling like an earthquake, and the giant elephant slowly erged from the Elephant House.
In the distance.
The party led by Steward Wang was constantly looking towards the Elephant House.
"Sun Changlian, has it been truly tad?"
He slowed his pace a bit, great beasts were no joke, if it went berserk, he doubted the several protectors at his side could hold it back.
Sun Changlian nodded vigorously, brimming with pride.
"Rest assured, steward, Brother Xu has remarkable skills, the taming is basically complete, it’s just that he needs to consolidate the taming results daily, otherwise he would have seen you already, yesterday I even patted the great beast myself!"
"Really!?"
Steward Wang widened his eyes, staring at Sun Changlian dead-on, wanting to confirm the truth of his words.
At this mont, Sun Changlian was unambiguous, pounding his chest with conviction.
