[29] Little cutie
On the ground made of Ice.
A figure in silver clothing could be seen from afar. She was sitting in a lotus position while her eyes were tightly shut.
The air was gently swaying her silver locks while numerous little frosts in six petal-shape were falling from the sky.
Even in that beautiful atmosphere, a frown was visible on Kayra's beautiful forehead.
Endless energy was entering every pore of her skin. Her whole body was enveloped in a silver aura while a streak line of silver light was entering her forehead. But she was a rookie who was using that technique for the first time and her body was not used to it.
Even though she was getting endless energy, her body failed to lock all of that energy in her cells, and thus like how the energy entered her body, it left with carbon dioxide when she exhaled breath.
Kayra remained motionless and let nature do its work on her body without any obstacle.
While chanting the mysterious incantation in her mind which was given by Phiphi, she took in endless energy which was in the surroundings and the source was the beautiful great Deluna.
After two hours.
"Phew~" Kayra opened her eyes and sighed in satisfaction. The shiny reddish glow of her orbs decreased as well.
'Such a useful thing. If I had it in my past life, I would not have to suffer!' Kayra thought with a dreamy expression.
She felt it wasn't too late either. So what if she didn't get it in that life! She could use it to its fullest in this life!
With this thought, Kayra stood up and patted her full belly in satisfaction.
[Did it work? Are you full now?]
The system asked as it saw the satisfied face of its host. For a moment, it had complicated thoughts like human beings.
In reality, it had hacked into the security system of the Azure Planet to block the image of Cardinal penetrating the atmosphere. While it was at it, it recalled its host's whining face of hunger.
In the end, it went a length longer and stole an incantation which was used on low-level beasts to crave their hunger during treasure hunting!
Oblivious to all of these, Kayra smiled as she glanced at Deluna in the night sky and nodded.
'Not bad Phiphi. Even though I resent you for giving it to me after a long time of my suffering, I forgive you~'
With a smug expression, Kayra muttered into her mind. Her eyes bent into crescent moons as she tilted her head and glanced at the nearby tree.
[ … ]
Fine! The system didn't want to talk with its host anymore!
Phiphi harrumphed and jumped back to its little black room and shut the door with a loud bang. The sound of it resounded in the whole mind space and even the hibernating Cardinal trembled in fear for some reason.
Kayra suddenly felt dizzy and clutched her head with her two arms. She could not help but mutter, "Just now, what was that?"
However, nobody answered her as the other two went into their own dimensions. Kayra scoffed and didn't stay at that place anymore. She began to tread ahead with a lot of bubbling energy in her body.
Not to say, she wasn't hungry like before but a little. Despite that, she was in a cheerful mood.
After she had left the place while jumping on the ice, a bunch of people flew towards that area and landed around it. They stood beside the huge pit made by Cardinal and began to examine it seriously.
The oldest one of the group turned to the younglings who were shorter than her waist and asked, "Children, can you guess what it is?"
A bunch of dumplings who were older than 100 years, answered one after another excitedly!
"A-a meteorite~" A cute girl raised her arm and replied shyly. However, her eyes were sparkling as she eyed the pit with great interest.
"Useless satellite!" A boy nudged his eyeglasses which were reflecting rays of wisdom~
"Enemy nation's provocation!" A bulky boy fisted his hand and swore.
He even took out the mini laser gun and vigilantly glanced at the surroundings, ready to pounce on any possible threats!
Boom~ Boom~ His toy laser gun made noise as it tried to find possible 'prey'.
The old lady was glad about their reactions and gave them commands, "Good. Now scatter around in Wandas Ice Mountains and find any clues regarding the missing object. We shall meet here after 1 week."
"Yes, Teacher!" The children replied in unison and flew in different directions. After they left, the old lady turned towards the pit and crouched down on the edge.
She touched the ice beside the pit and closed her eyes. In the next second, her green eyes opened and coldness shrouded her whole being.
"A mecha?" The old woman frowned as she didn't understand how a mecha could bypass the security of the planet and it would be identified as a meteorite.
Not to say, it came down as a form of meteorite!
'It must be someone from the security system who gave a false alarm...or...'
The lady guessed as she looked ahead. She remembered some rumors that some internal strife had been ongoing in the Lord's castle.
Her eyes narrowed into slits when she caught sight of several footsteps on the ice. Even though those got covered in new frosts and snow, she still saw them. She dashed towards the footsteps and crouched down.
"Left clear, right clear, everything is clear." Olivia Forest nodded and poked on the snow. She took a little ice on the tip of her forefinger and sniffed hard.
"Got you!" She flicked the ice away and stood up.
A pair of wings unfolded behind her body and she flew up in the sky. Her eyes scanned the footsteps, and she knew that those weren't of ordinary people. Who would walk like a snake and leave such unorganized footsteps?!
No, even a snake's slither is more elegant than those steps!
To eliminate any potential danger, Olivia Forest followed the traits and began to search for the unknown fella.
…
Kayra, the not-so-elegant fella, walked and walked and walked. She even got a stick on the way and continued her journey to discover anything worthy on her path for survival.
While she was on it, she discovered a hidden cave hidden behind many Christmas trees. However, before she could go there to find something that could come in handy, something else attracted her attention.
"Awo~"
"Woo!"
"Kek!"
"Aww~ Such cute puppies~" Kayra whispered while looking ahead. Nothing could stop her from ogling… cough! From admiring cute beings~ Awo~
Currently, she was hiding behind a bush while looking at a little cave made of ice beside a huge mountain rock.
In front of the cave, several white baby beasts were playing. Kayra, who loved cute things, couldn't ignore her heart being moved after witnessing such things.
Phiphi, who was inside her mind space, also turned its round body upon her exclamation. But when it saw the white fur balls, it felt like slapping its own head.
But what a pity! Phiphi didn't have a head and thus, couldn't slap itself~
[Host! They are polar bear cubs, not puppies! How can you mistake them? Are you even a college student?]
The system's voice rang out in Kayra's head and she had to stop ogling at those white little furballs. She became embarrassed as her pale skin flushed.
"To me, all are puppies and I love them a lot. Heh~ Heh~ Heh~ "
Right after saying that, as if a baby bird was returning to her nest, Kayra stood up and sprinted towards those babies with a huge grin.
The little cubs who were playing on the ice were taken aback when they saw a lady in a silver suit rushing towards them with a scary face.
Some were frightened while some were surprised by her sudden appearance. Nonetheless, as soon as she stood in front of the cute cubs, the sweet milky scent of Kayra assaulted their nose.
Instantly, the male cubs became restless and jumped on her body of their own volition. Kayra, naturally, took the three cubs in her arms and rubbed them all over her chest.
"How soft~ That's why I love puppies~" While saying this, Kayra giggled and showered them with her kisses.
"Aww~ They are warm too!" Kayra rubbed her face against their cheeks to get warmth!
She, who had put on red lipstick at some point, left bright red marks on the cuties. The babies also loved the sweet scent of hers and barked cutely.
"Wu~ Wu~"
[Who could tell its host that those cubs are eating her tufo! Look! Look at that lecher! He is taking advantage of my host's bunnies! Ya~]
But those three rascals didn't get the chance to enjoy her love for a long time either. Because a terrifying aura crawled towards Kayra from behind.
"Grrr~ Grrr~"
A shudder ran through Kayra's spine when she heard the ferocious growl of a huge beast from behind.
When she slowly turned her head around, her red eyes widened at the gigantic polar bear's silhouette who was towering over her.
'Oh my God! This!' Slowly, Kayra retreated with the three baby cubs in her arms.
The bloodshot eyes of the polar bear stared fiercely at Kayra who had her three babies. Thinking that they were caught by the unknown being in the middle of the night because of her absence, the beast became super hostile.
But glancing at the three female cubs who were standing in the home, her anger appeased a little. She thought that her daughters were surely more intelligent than her stupid sons!
'Leave my children!' The polar bear growled again but this time it was mixed with mental energy which conveyed her thoughts.
But it was a pity that Kayra wasn't a local habitat of the Azure Planet and didn't know the technique to interpret the psychic signals.
Looking at the retreating figure, the polar bear misunderstood that the woman had ulterior motives or… she was stalling time for her accomplices?
A terrifying heavy aura slowly leaked from the polar bear's body and soon the white furry polar bear extended to 20x of her original form.
Then the gigantic bear turned into an infernal fire bear! Right after transforming, the bear snorted at Kayra.
"Ah~" Feeling the hot air blowing towards her body, Kayra felt extreme comfort… She even sighed emotionally and tightened her holds on the cubs.
'Come to think of it, if the mother can produce fire, doesn't that mean that the puppies are life-saving treasures?' As this thought crossed her mind, Kayra's eyes lit up with excitement. She stopped retreating and looked down on the cubs.
One cub was staring at her all the time. Noticing her gaze, he went up and licked Kayra's cheek affectionately.
"Ku~ Ku~" The baby blinked his cute eyes and made sweet noises. It melted her heart with cuteness. She asked in her mind space.
'Phiphi, can we keep this cutie? Only one!'
