Chapter 68: The Spirit Beast Cubs who are Prepared to Give Up on Taking the Shortcut

Seeming to have heard the sound of Giles using the camera to take pictures, the spirit beast cubs that were snoring around Giles slowly opened their squinted eyes. They were all yawning and stretching in their sleep.

After coming to their senses, they suddenly felt that the sound that had awakened them from their slumber was somewhat familiar. They raised their heads in confusion and began to search for the source of the voice.

“Ah! Giles helped us take pictures again!” Seeing Giles take the photo from the camera, a spirit beast cub let out a cry of surprise.

The spirit beast cubs that had yet to wake up were originally rubbing their eyes. When they heard this cry, they immediately became energetic.

Excited, they all gathered around Giles and peered into his arms, all of them wanting to see what Giles had taken with the camera.

“Make way! Don’t push! Save me a spot!”

“What did Giles shoot this time? Did anyone see it?”

“I’m guessing someone had a strange sleeping posture and was photographed by Giles!”

“…”

Seeing how the spirit beast cubs had such a huge reaction to the photo taking, Giles couldn’t help but laugh at himself.

Looks like they didn’t forget about this matter. They’re still passionate about taking photos. I’m the only one who’s been blinded by glory and lost my way.

After realizing this, Giles looked at the group of lively spirit beast cubs in front of him and suddenly felt a heavy burden lifted off his chest.

Although he had never felt like he was carrying any burden, when he recalled what he had been doing recently, he knew it was actually because of his competitiveness or rather vanity.

“Perhaps it’s because I was called trash for more than ten years, that’s why I was so eager to prove my strength to everyone.”

Looking down at the picture of himself in his hand, Giles suddenly realized that the “revenge” action he had subconsciously taken some time ago was so childish and laughable.

He was like a child who had been neglected for a long time rushing to show off his new toy to other children, as if thinking that they would regret it and that someone would take the initiative to play with him in the future.

Hah, it seems like my heart is still not strong enough.

Giles sighed to himself, then shook his head in self-deprecation.

However, when he saw the spirit beast cubs surrounding him, Giles couldn’t help but feel gratified.

“Fortunately, I still have them…”

Before Giles could say anything, the photo in his hand was blown up by a gust of wind.

When the spirit beast cubs squeezing towards Giles saw this, they all looked up.

“Ah! I saw it clearly! All of us seem to have been photographed!”

“I saw it too! Haha! You slept while hugging your tail again!”

“What’s wrong with hugging my tail while sleeping? Not only do you snore in your sleep, but your nose is also covered in mucus!”

“…”

When the spirit beast cubs looked up, they also jumped a few times, wanting to try and grab the photo from the air.

However, because they were small and could not jump, they could not reach the photo that had been blown into the air.

Giles had been about to stand up too, but when he realized that the little fox was still sleeping in his lap, he sat there and watched the picture being blown up by the wind.

Whoosh!

Giles suddenly felt a gust of wind beside him, and his eyes narrowed unconsciously.

On a closer look, it turned out that the Little Golden Eagle had flapped its wings and brought down the picture floating in the air.

“Not bad, Little Golden Eagle. Looks like your pre-evolution explosive strength still remains.”

After taking the photo from the Little Golden Eagle, Giles stroked its head in approval and smoothed down the feathers that were slightly raised on its head.

“Alright, alright. Everyone, don’t be anxious.”

To prevent the situation just now from happening again, Giles kept the photo in his spatial wristband.

Then, he waved his right hand at the spirit beast cubs around him, indicating for them to not be anxious.

“I’ll put this photo in our album. When the time comes, everyone can just look through the album like before.”

Seeing that it had been a long time since Giles had mentioned looking through the album, the excited spirit beast cubs quickly became obedient.

Seeing that the spirit beast cubs had quietened down and stopped making a din, Giles scanned the surroundings.

He realized that apart from the Little Fox changing its position to sleep on his legs, the other spirit beast cubs had already woken up.

In order to not disturb the Little Fox that was healing him, Giles communicated telepathically with the dozen or so spirit beast cubs beside him.

“Since everyone has woken up, I’ll apologize for the accident today.”

After using spiritual communication to apologize to the spirit beast cubs, Giles, who was sitting on the spot, bowed slightly to the spirit beast cubs.

The spirit beast cubs that had just sensed Giles’ spiritual connection were originally looking at Giles excitedly, but when they saw Giles suddenly bow and apologize, their eyes immediately widened.

Just as the spirit beast cubs were panicking and puzzled by Giles’ actions, Giles, who slowly raised his head, looked at the Little Golden Eagle standing by the side and began to explain the situation to the spirit beast cubs.

“The main reason why the Little Golden Eagle lost control during his evolution today is because of me. I promise that when I tell stories in the future, I will control the spiritual power I release to prevent any accidents like today’s from happening again.”

After hearing Giles make the promise in a solemn manner, the spirit beast cubs’ gazes couldn’t help but shift to the Little Golden Eagle.

Recalling the ‘spiritual energy storm’ that the Little Golden Eagle had triggered when it lost control of its evolution, they still felt a lingering fear.

At that moment, there were even a few spirit beast cubs that took the initiative to go over to Giles and rubbed against his right hand.

“Giles, we’re never going to pester you to tell us stories again.”

After sensing the message from these spirit beast cubs, the other spirit beast cubs struggled internally for a while before nodding at Giles.

The main reason why they had pestered Giles to tell them stories was because they realized that they had vaguely sensed a slight improvement in themselves after listening to the stories.

However, they could not tell what exactly had improved. Perhaps it was that their emotions had become richer, or perhaps their minds had become smarter.

However, the spirit beast cubs with the most obvious enhancement effects would begin to absorb spiritual energy and complete their evolution after listening to the story.

Without exception, this was the same for the Little Golden Eagle.

However, the unexpected situation that the Little Golden Eagle had caused also sounded an alarm bell for the spirit beast cubs.

This method of accelerating one’s growth by listening to stories seemed to be accompanied by some risks.

If they were not careful, they might end up in a similar predicament as the Little Golden Eagle.

Therefore, for the sake of their safety and that of Giles’, the spirit beast cubs all gave up on taking the shortcut.

“Okay, that’s alright, because I originally planned to teach all of you some combat-related knowledge and skills.”

Giles looked at the spirit beast cubs, who had pestered him everyday to tell them stories, all expressing that they would not listen to stories anymore because of the accident that had just happened.

He understood that they were still worried about the accident that had just happened and respected their thoughts, but he also proposed a compromise to the spirit beast cubs.

“But in the future, if any of you want to listen to stories, you can come to the small wooden house in the spirit-beast section to look for me.”
