To be continued

Perhaps because he was still a cub, Xia Tian felt that he didn't get enough sleep every day, and basically spent 22 hours a day sleeping.

This level of lethargy made him seriously doubt whether he had fallen into the egg of a creature with attributes similar to a sloth...

Siegel didn't notice something was wrong at first, but after many days, he found that Xia Tian hadn't opened his eyes at all before he started to feel a little anxious.

Even though he has never raised Eudemons, he has never seen such a creature that has not opened its eyes for several months after birth.

So every night when he came back, Siegel would quietly fetch a pot of warm water, find a piece of cloth to wet, and gently wipe the corners of Xia Tian's eyes with the cloth. Baby cats that have not yet opened their eyes are very useful.

Siegel doesn't know what kind of Eudemons Xia Tian is, but judging by the appearance of his powder puff balls, it should be similar to those of milk cats.

The wet cloth gently touched Xia Tian's soft little face, seeing the frown of the phantom beast on the palm, Siegel didn't dare to wipe it too hard, for fear of hurting the phantom beast hurt.

But Xiao is like this, Xia Tian was also made very uncomfortable by the wiped cloth, his chubby little hands stretched out to his face, and subconsciously wanted to cover his eyes to protect his uncomfortable eyes.

"Aww, aww" Xia Tian opened his mouth to protest in a low voice, this hot and humid feeling made him feel too uncomfortable.

"Xiao Xia, bear with it." Siegel is not a careful girl after all, seeing the phantom beast in the palm's obvious resistance to wiping her eyes, she didn't stop the movement of her hand, but wiped it a little anxiously, "You don't open your eyes It's not good for your health."

After wiping for a while, Siegel finally wiped away one of Xia Tian's eyes.

It was a clear emerald green eye without any impurities.

The moment Siegel saw Xia Tian's pupils, he suddenly felt that those impurity-free pupils were like a priceless emerald embedded in his eyes, so beautiful that people wanted to take them out and treasure them .

Xia Tian didn't notice Siegel's dangerous thoughts. He opened his eyelids and looked at the scene in front of him, only feeling that the facial features of the person in front of him were all blurred.

He struggled to lift his eyelids for a while, but he didn't see the scene in front of him becoming clearer. He quickly lowered his eyelids again, leaving only a small gap to squint.

Ah... There's no other way. It's too tiring for him to raise his eyelids, and he can't see anything clearly. He might as well close his eyes and continue to sleep.

System: "..." I always feel that the host is getting closer and closer to the pig...

In this way, whenever Siegel wiped his left eye away, Xia Tian's right eye drooped again, and when he finally wiped his right eye, Xia Tian's left eye drooped again.In short, just like being deliberately against each other, Xia Tian has one eye drooping from the beginning to the end, and never opened two eyes at the same time.

Although Siegel was a little frustrated with such a result, after today's brushing, he was not completely unrewarded.

At any rate, he knew that Xia Tian's eyes could see things normally, a hanging heart finally let go of half.

So he continued to help Xia Tian wipe his eyes every night.

After such a long time, every night when Xia Tian heard Siegel's footsteps entering the house, he subconsciously got into the bed and hid.

This eye-wiping thing is not something worth enjoying for Xia Tian, ​​on the contrary, it is very uncomfortable. Even if Siegel's movements are very light, the corners of his eyes will still be a little red and swollen every time he is rubbed.

...

Three months later

Xia Tian fell asleep as usual until he woke up naturally, and slowly crawled out of the bed following the smell, but after touching the bread with his hands, he smelled a more fragrant and rich food scent.

That scent was many times stronger than the bland milk and cold bread in front of me. In summer, you could even smell the smell of barbecue and honey in it.

The freshly baked crispy meat is topped with a thick layer of honey sauce. The sweet honey wraps the rich meat aroma. The taste...

Xia Tian pouted his mouth, and almost immediately gave up the milk and bread in his hands, relying on the guidance of the smell to crawl towards the source of the scent.

very close...

already very close...

Accompanied by the creaking sound of pushing the door open, a puffy figure emerged from the wooden door, and the two people who had been waiting at the door for a long time stretched out their hands and picked up Xia Tian.

"Kuer, look quickly, I said that Siegel's mysteriousness these days is definitely related to the phantom beast eggs he picked up in the forest before, hehe, I teased with food, this phantom beast is actually obedient crawled out of the door."

"This...is this really an Eudemons?" The young man named Kur looked at Xia Tian in his hands, his face full of disbelief: "I have never seen a humanoid Eudemons before, Raku, what do you say , Is this worth a lot of money?"

"Hehe, of course." Raku smiled triumphantly, shook the honey chicken leg in his hand and said, "This chicken leg cost me a whole three copper coins, this phantom beast, no matter how you say it, is worth more than this. "

Nonsense, of course I'm worth more than a chicken leg!

Xia Tian never imagined that one day he would fall into such a mentally handicapped trap, struggling in Raku's hands with grief and indignation on his face.

Xia Tian: "..." QAQ really became lowered because of being reincarnated into the body of a cub, along with his IQ!

It's a pity that his strength is so weak that it can be ignored. Once Raku grabbed his palm, he couldn't move, and even blushed, he couldn't break free from his hand.

The most abominable thing was that when Raku got him under control, he even shared the honey chicken leg with Kool, not leaving him with half a mouthful!

Listening to the sound of the two eating, Xia Tian was about to be blown out of anger. He knew that he should have taken a quick bite of the meat on the chicken leg before being caught by Raku.

System: […] The focus of the host's anger seems to be getting more and more wrong.

Just as Xia Tian gritted his teeth and listened to the two crunching the chicken drumsticks, a sharp female voice suddenly came over.

"Raku, Kur!" Hill inserted his slightly fat waist, and angrily reprimanded: "I said today that Rafael couldn't find the two of you, so you two actually hid here to be lazy!"

After approaching, Hill smelled the strong smell of chicken legs in the air, and became even more angry, holding Raku's ear and scolding: "Okay, you kid can do it, but you are lazy to eat during working hours, You still eat food as good as chicken legs, it seems that you have a lot of money, you don't care about this month's money, do you?"

"No, no, Mrs. Hill." Raku's ears hurt a little from being picked up by Hill, but in order to hide the phantom beast behind him and the half-gnawed chicken leg in his hand, he resisted the pain and did not struggle.

"Ms. Hill... Raku and I will go back right away." Kur at the side obviously realized this problem, and turned sideways, trying to help Raku hide the phantom beast behind him.After all, they only need to perfunctory Hill now, and in a few days, they can sell the Eudemons on the Eudemons Market to make money.

After staying in the duke's mansion for so many years and managing so many servants in the duke's mansion, how shrewd is Hill.She quickly saw what was wrong with these two boys, and deliberately delayed the time to deal with it.

Perhaps because of the guilt and impatience in his heart, Raku's grip on Xia Tian's hand was not as tight as before, and Xia Tian quickly bit down on the flesh on his hand.

"Ah!" Raku screamed, and subconsciously threw the thing in his hand.

A powdery dumpling was thrown on the grass, Hill narrowed his long and narrow eyes, and without waiting for the reaction of the other two, he directly squatted down and picked up Xia Tian.

Hill asked the two of them, "What is this?"

Raku and Kur looked at each other without speaking.

"Tell me! Raku! Kool!" Hill raised the decibel.

"Yes...it's the Eudemons... Mrs. Hill."

Satisfied with the two people's answers, Hill narrowed his already small eyes, and carefully looked at Xia Tian inside and out, with a greedy light shining in his eyes.

Even if he couldn't see it, Xia Tian felt uncomfortable being stared at by this kind of sight, and the whip-like tail subconsciously wrapped around the base of his legs.

"Very good, it turned out to be a humanoid Eudemon." Mrs. Hill smiled in satisfaction, stretched out her plump palm to rub Xia Tian's face, and tried to ask softly: "It's so cute, little Eudemon, tell me Me, you'll be a good boy, won't you?"

"Aww!" Xia Tian frowned, flapping his two little hands non-stop, roaring from his throat, trying to scare the person in front of him away.

It always feels like something bad is about to happen...

"Well, it seems that the little Eudemons also agreed, it seems like a good boy." Hill replied to himself, apparently not caring about Xia Tian's attitude, turned around and grabbed him and planned to go back.

Looking at the back of Hill who was about to go away, Raku said unwillingly: "Xi, Mrs. Hill, this phantom beast..."

At any rate, he spent three copper coins to capture this phantom beast, and now it was robbed by Hill halfway, wouldn't it be of no benefit at all?

"Huh?" Hill turned his head, his expression hardened in an instant, staring at Raku who hurriedly lowered his head and stopped talking, then turned and left in satisfaction.

...

After bringing Xia Tian back to his room, Hill himself had a wishful thinking.

A few days ago, my husband told him that in another month, it would be the 16th birthday of Young Master Green in the Duke's Mansion. At that time, the Duke and Duchess will hold a grand party to celebrate Young Master Green's birthday and farewell trip.

The reason why it is said to be a farewell trip is that it will soon be the time to enroll students at the famous Trall Academy in the kingdom. The Trall Academy is very famous in the entire West Fantasy Continent. It is said that there have even been several students there. A sorcerer at the level of a law god!

Young Master Green has already received an invitation letter from Trall Academy through his family relationship, and his elder brother Geer is also studying in this school.If at this time, Hill gave this phantom beast as a birthday gift to young master Green, it would undoubtedly be even more powerful for his trip to the academy, especially since this is a humanoid phantom beast that cannot be bought in the market at all!

In this way, Hill could almost imagine that when the Duke rewarded her with treasures as a thank you, the box full of gold coins was enough for her to take gold coin baths several times!

That's not to mention, maybe the Duchess will introduce her to noble contacts from now on, so that she can enter the upper class from now on!

Hill's vision for the future is very good, and even his attitude towards Xia Tian is very gentle.In order to take good care of Xia Tian, ​​she even asked the servant to prepare precious high-quality milk and fresh butter bread to the room at noon, and placed them in front of Xia Tian for him to eat.

Xia Tian was put on the table by Hill, and smelling the aroma of the food on the table, he quickly pinched a piece of butter bread and put it in his mouth, and ate it in big mouthfuls, as if he didn't feel the slightest discomfort from being caught.

Mrs. Hill, who was worried that he would go on a hunger strike, was relieved.

Xia Tian felt that with his current strength, he would not be able to escape this woman's control even if he ate or not. Instead of going on a meaningless hunger strike, it would be better to save some energy after eating and wait for the opportunity to escape to Siegel's room.

The faint scent of wheat is mixed with sweet and greasy butter. This kind of food is many times better than the cold hard bread that Siegel gave him before. The matter of Siegel's room was thrown out of the sky.

After eating, Xia Tian fell asleep on the table.

After all, it was the basis for him to exchange for a large box of gold coins and status in the future, so Hilt thoughtfully put a soft quilt under his body.

In fact, Hill originally wanted to lock Xia Tian in a cage. After all, if such a valuable thing runs away, no matter who picks it up, the chances of it returning are very slim.But Xia Tian's figure is neither big nor small, the dog cage is too big and dirty, and the door of the bird cage is too small, the phantom beast can't fit in at all.

But looking at Xia Tian who was sleeping and looking cute in front of him, Hill was not too eager to find a cage. When her husband came back in the evening, just ask him to go to the market tomorrow to choose a suitable cage.

Be sure to choose a more exquisite cage, Hill thought, otherwise the value of this humanoid phantom beast will be greatly lowered when it is given out at the party.

In this way, Hill stayed in the house almost all day without going out, sitting on the chair in front of the bed, imagining the bright future, and staring at the Eudemons in front of him.

"Boom, boom, boom"

A few hasty knocks on the door suddenly came from outside the door, and Hill, who was sitting on the chair, immediately came back to his senses.

Really, even though she specifically told her to knock on the door softly today, how could it be as loud as that blind servant!

Although Hill felt a little impatient with these hasty knocks on the door, in order not to wake up the phantom beast who was still squinting and sleeping on the table, she opened the door lightly.

Seeing the boy standing at the door, Hill narrowed his eyes and lowered his voice, "Siegel, your work should not be over yet, right? Why did you come to find me? What's the matter?"

Siegel's forehead and neck are now covered with sticky sweat, and the light brown hair on the front of his forehead is also wet with sweat, as if he had just been fished out of the water.

Seeing Hill opened the door, he didn't care who the person in front of him was, he just knocked Hill open in a hurry and broke into the house with an anxious look on his face.

"Siegel!" After being bumped by him, Hill didn't care if anything would disturb the Eudemons' rest, and rushed towards him and roared, "Did I invite you in? You are rude!" People, get out of here!"

"Xiaoxia!"

Siegel didn't seem to hear what Hill said at all. When he finally saw Xia Tian rolling on the ground on the floor of the room, he rushed over with an excited expression and hugged Xia Tian tightly. In his arms, his hands were trembling uncontrollably.

At noon today, he secretly brought some leftover meat from the kitchen, intending to feed it to Xia Tian. After all, Xia Tian has always looked hungry these days.

As a result, when he returned to the house and searched every corner of the house but couldn't find Xia Tian's figure, Siegel almost went crazy.

After calming down a bit, Siegel's first reaction was that Xia Tian was abducted by someone, because Xia Tian has been lying in bed obediently and never moving around these days, the only possibility is that someone broke in He was taken away from the house.

In fact, it proved that his deduction was correct. In the afternoon, when Raku came to find fault with him as usual, he casually told the story of the phantom beast that had abducted him and was snatched by Hill, so He ran to Hill's room non-stop.

...

"Hey! This Eudemons is mine. I want you to let go of it and get out of here. Did you hear that, Siegel!" After reacting, Hill rushed over angrily, trying to push Siegel away. Pull it away, and snatch back the Eudemons in your arms.

"Mrs. Hill, this phantom beast is mine!" Siegel turned his body, avoiding Hill's hands attacking him, and hugged Xia Tian in his arms even tighter.

Hill's expression darkened upon hearing this.

In fact, when she recalled the details when she brought the phantom beast home, she probably guessed that this phantom beast should belong to Siegel. In front of Geer's house, and she had also heard that Siegel had picked up a phantom beast egg in the forest before, but she didn't expect him to break in so boldly.

but now...

"Oh?" Hill raised his brows and patted his hands, as if he had given an order to call the servants who were hiding outside the house to watch the excitement into the house, and surrounded Siegel tightly. Toufeng, "Siegel, no one has signed a contract with this phantom beast, what qualifications do you have to prove that this phantom beast is yours?"

"That's right, Siegel, don't talk nonsense, just hug a phantom beast and say it's your own, this is the behavior of a robber." Suddenly stretched out his leg and kicked Siegel hard in the stomach, kicking him directly to the ground.

He usually disagrees with Siegel, and now he can find a legitimate reason to beat Siegel severely, which is naturally what he wishes for.What's more... It also allows him to experience the despair of losing the Eudemons.

"That's right, Siegel, you are just a low-level servant in the Duke's mansion, where can you get the phantom beast eggs to hatch phantom beasts? When you said this, you didn't look in the mirror to see your identity, Do you really think you can still be a Phantom Beast Master?"

Another servant who spoke also kicked Siegel hard.

Even though he knew that this phantom beast was probably hatched from the egg that Siegel picked up in the forest before, why would Siegel be so lucky to hatch the phantom beast egg and become a phantom beast master? ?Obviously, he, like himself, is just an inferior servant in the duke's mansion!

With the beginning, the rest of the people seemed to have found the source of venting their anger. You said something to each other, while insulting Siegel's wishful thinking, while kicking Siegel fiercely with their feet.

Siegel just shrank to the ground, didn't fight back, and tightly protected the phantom beast on his chest, without saying a word.

And under the shadows, where no one can see, the edge of Siegel's original brown pupils began to climb strange red threads, and the slender red threads were as thin as the webs spit out by spiders.

"Okay, okay, you guys stop first." Seeing that those people in front of them had scolded enough and kicked them a few times, Mrs. Hill beckoned them to stop, and watched Siegel, who was lying on the ground, slowly Said: "Siegel, I know you are just a child, and I understand your liking for Eudemons, but what is not yours is not yours after all. Now as long as you return this Eudemons to me, I will Just let it go, how about it?"

Having said all of this, everyone present felt that anyone who was a little smarter would choose to hand over the phantom beast. After all, no matter what Siegel chose today, he would not be able to keep this phantom beast.If he took the initiative to hand in, he could save a beating.

Siegel, who was lying on the ground, seemed to be in a tangle, and Hill didn't urge him. After all, even an adult would feel unwilling to do this kind of thing, let alone a half-grown child?

"This phantom beast is mine."

what?

After a long time, a voice came from below, and Hill opened his slightly round eyes wide, thinking that he had heard it wrong.

"This phantom beast is mine!" Siegel increased the decibel this time, almost screaming, with strange bloodshot eyes covered with brown pupils, "This phantom beast is mine! None of you Don't try to take him away!!!" The loud and paranoid voice was clearly heard by everyone present in the room.

"...In that case." Hill finally reacted, looking at Siegel who was not letting go, and his expression became cold: "Then Siegel, I now declare that you have committed the crime of stealing from the Duke's mansion. , will be sentenced to the third criminal law in the Duke's mansion, and will be sent to prison for hard labor after consulting the Duke tomorrow!"

After the voice fell, the people around seemed to have received some kind of signal, and they began to collectively beat Siegel lying on the ground.

If before, they only dared to kick because Mrs. Hill hadn't let go, now they can punch and kick Siegel recklessly.

It is not surprising that a low-level servant who committed theft in the Duke's mansion was beaten to death alive...

"boom!"

Suddenly, a loud bang came from the room. Hill was blocked by the shattered smoke and dust in front of his eyes, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to block his eyes.

Afterwards, the smoke gradually dissipated, and a slender figure walked out of the smoke.

It was a young man with jet-black hair like black feathers. On his handsome face, those deep blood-red eyes were as eye-catching as shining red gems.

Beside him, there were many cokes lying there, which made his blood-red eyes even more bewitching.

Hill looked at the bodies whose facial features were melted together by the explosion, his legs were trembling uncontrollably, and he found that the boy was approaching him step by step, and his legs went limp and he fell to the ground. .

When the boy stood in front of him, Hill thought he was about to die and almost fainted from the fright of this action.

But the boy just hooked his lips and smiled at himself.

"Mrs. Hill, this phantom beast is mine, no one can take it away." The boy reiterated.

"Yes, yes, what's yours is yours, and no one can take it away." Hill was trembling when he was frightened by the young man. He bit his tongue several times, but he kept talking to save his life. He nodded and said.

Seeing the panicked appearance of the person in front of him trying to save his life, Siegel raised the corners of his mouth mockingly, and black spots of light condensed on his fingertips.

"No, no, don't, don't kill me, please, I don't dare to snatch the phantom beast from you again, this phantom beast belongs to you and will always belong to you!" Sensing that her life was threatened, Xi Er was so flustered that she was about to cry, she couldn't help but flinched behind her.

After experiencing the previous events, she dared not underestimate the small black light spot condensed in Siegel's hand. The piles of charred black corpses next to her are enough to illustrate the power of this light spot.

Seeing the light spots on the boy's fingertips grow bigger and bigger, and the black current flowing around the light spots, Hill was almost terrified, but saw the boy in front of him suddenly froze, and the light spots on his fingertips Disappeared, and his expression became tense.

Hill was feeling puzzled, and followed Siegel's line of sight, only to realize that the phantom beast in his arms had opened its eyes at some point, and was staring at him with a pair of emerald green eyes.

The author has something to say: Xia Tian: "...Master, what are you doing?"

Siegel (The magic is terminated in an instant.)
