164: Chapter 164: Sweet Burden 164: Chapter 164: Sweet Burden On the Beastman side, Aleya was feeling pleased with the smooth implentation of her plans.
On the other hand, Zhao Guang was beginning to feel a headache coming on.
After sending the items back ho, Zhao Guang saw the Beastn off and was left looking at the large and small creatures with a bit of a headache.
He couldn’t bear to throw away one, nor could he bear to abandon the other, but Zhao Guang wasn’t about to take them back with him.
Their characteristics were too conspicuous, unmistakably non-human.
Even if other matters were put aside, his elder sister would inevitably see them sooner or later, and then the secret would be out.
Moreover, if he were to take them back, his Space Gate would be exposed as well.
Having two people know the secret of the Space Gate, if they managed to experint and discover sothing, that wouldn’t be good.
The style of that Space Gate didn’t look like it ca from Earth at all but was very similar to this side instead.
“So, what do you two plan to do?” he asked.
“We will follow the master’s orders,” Xi Fei said in a low voice, clearly aware of her status and current situation.
Jeana, however, was hiding behind Xi Fei, displaying that she felt more secure with Xi Fei, a fellow Slave, than with Zhao Guang, a man.
“First of all, it’s impossible for to take you to the other side.”
At Zhao Guang’s words, Xi Fei felt sowhat disappointed but didn’t show any reaction.
In contrast, Jeana seed to breathe a sigh of relief, fearing the unknown of the other side even more.
“Forget it, I’ll take you to the place where I usually stay, and from now on you’ll live here,” he said.
Zhao Guang quickly took the two to the Hard-haired Pig’s ho.
As for the Hard-haired Pig, does it really matter what it thinks?
When the Hard-haired Pig saw the two strangers, it charged at them, wanting to attack.
But after just one glance from Xi Fei, Zhao Guang noticed that the Hard-haired Pig stood frozen in place, seemingly with a blank mind, devoid of all thoughts.
“What’s going on?” Zhao Guang asked Xi Fei.
He couldn’t allow this beautiful woman to bully his own Hard-haired Pig.
Of course, if there was no danger, it might be okay.
“I’m sorry, master, I—I was just afraid it would attack the master.
This is my talent, Charm, but it only works on small animals,” Xi Fei said, worried that Zhao Guang might not appreciate her modest ability.
“I am also a Fla Mage.
Even though, even though my power is sowhat lacking, I will work hard.”
“A Fla Mage?
I didn’t expect you had that skill.
Let it go, that’s my pet,” he instructed.
Hearing this, Xi Fei hastily released the Hard-haired Pig.
The Hard-haired Pig also seed to realize sothing, gave Xi Fei a frightened glance, and then turned to run away…
Run away?
Zhao Guang cursed inwardly, annoyed at the coward.
The Hard-haired Pig felt wronged too—being controlled by just one glance, how could it not run?
As for Zhao Guang, that bipedal beast, the people were brought by him, after all.
They were of the sa kind and should resolve it themselves.
“Alright, you two will stay here temporarily for a couple of days.
I will resolve the matter of the house.
And Jeana, if you want to continue studying Priest abilities, you can go to the Beastn’s place, but rember to be careful.”
“I, I can continue studying the knowledge of Priesthood?” It was evident that Jeana was quite fond of the Priest profession.
“Of course, you can.
And in the future, when you beco powerful, you might even be able to help ,” he said.
“Mm, Jeana will definitely beco useful to Master; Master, please don’t abandon .”
As a slave, what she feared most wasn’t beatings but abandonnt because once abandoned, it ant death, or possibly a fate worse than death.
Jeana had seen plenty of slaves among the Beastn since she was young.
Xi Fei looked at Jeana with a feeling of empathy.
In fact, she had seen even more slaves, and their situations were often more miserable.
After all, she had been a mber of the slave group since birth.
Had it not been for coming to the Beastn’s side, where they looked down on her, she might have beco who knows what by now.
Having finally cald the two of them down and leaving behind so things she had just brought from ho, Zhao Guang went back.
“What a hassle, I’ll have to prepare living supplies for both of them in the future and worry about their lives too, such a hassle.”
He hadn’t felt it at first, but after getting ho, Zhao Guang felt things were getting troubleso.
These two people were definitely burdens, two attractive burdens, sweet and heavy.
The adult was sowhat easier to handle; at least she could take care of most things on her own.
But a child?
Wait, Xi Fei was already so grown-up; she should know a thing or two about taking care of children.
And Jeana wasn’t young either, she at least seed quite sensible to him.
Zhao Guang held his head, “Trouble, it’s such trouble, why do I keep running into these troubleso issues?” He hadn’t even properly established himself in the Otherworld, yet now he was already starting to take care of his subordinates.
Never mind that for now, it’s better to deal with the issues at hand.
Zhao Guang directly called his brother-in-law, Wang Qu, “Brother-in-law, it’s , I need to order a set of portable cabins.
How big?
The bigger, the better, and so simple furniture, I need that too.
Right, just one set for now.”
Wang Qu imdiately indicated it was no issue; as the owner of a props factory, wasn’t it a given he could secure these things?
After sorting all this out, Zhao Guang started to flip through the spell materials.
However, after thinking it over, he couldn’t put his mind to ease about Xi Fei and the other.
After all, they were two won, and one was a child; leaving them outside like this invited the risk of accidents.
Right, the Humans didn’t yet know about this.
Next ti, he would bring them along for a eting.
Otherwise, if the Human Soldiers saw those two people, they might just take them out as spies on the spot.
After organizing the magic materials, Zhao Guang brought his camping gear and headed once more to the Otherworld.
“Ah, Master, do you, do you have any orders for us?” Seeing Zhao Guang suddenly appear, the two seed sowhat nervous.
“Nothing much, just arranging your living supplies for now.
Co, help set up the tent.” Zhao Guang watched the two of them, noting their instinctual fear of him.
While putting up the tent, Zhao Guang arranged the pot and let the two handle their own food.
It had to be said that, at least when it ca to grilling at, Xi Fei’s skills were quite decent.
Zhao Guang watched the two grill while he began looking through various magic materials.
Ocoro had given him plenty of materials, many of which he hadn’t even looked at.
Now he needed to see if there was anything he required.
Unfortunately, even after skimming through them all, Zhao Guang hadn’t found what he wanted.
“Master, are you looking for sothing?
Are these magic books?” Xi Fei cautiously spoke, setting down the grilled at in her hand.
Even though she was the one grilling, it looked as though she was waiting on a lord.
