Isaac lay relaxedly on the bed while watching the departure of the Queen and his men. The Qilin baby jumped onto his chest, circling around to chase its tail, then letting out a breath of fire.
Fwuszz
"Kyu kyu kyu!"
"O hohoh… Hey, are you happy? I'm happy too." He stroked the tiny monster's head. "It's great when everything goes according to plan. I can't wait to see how their fight will turn out, but for now, let's lie down for a bit."
"Kyu!"
The Qilin baby let out fire for the second time. Isaac gave it a gold bar, then it ate the metal lump like a snack.
After ten minutes of playing with the baby Qilin, Isaac put it in his coat pocket. He then quickly rushed out of the queen's room.
In the doorway, he peeked at the state of the throne's chamber.
Inside the throne's chamber was quiet, only twenty antfolk warriors on standby. They were placed by the Queen to keep Isaac safe. Some of them seemed to yawn while the rest were seen chatting with each other.
