Rise of the White Dragon

Chapter 133: Pooh

"There's no use looking at me like that. Wait until it's ready and as promised, I'll share a little bit with you," Luan told the Grizzly Bear that was looking at him with pitiful eyes.

*Growl~*

"Yes, just a little more, now be quiet." Luan sighed. He did not like to hear the Brown Bear growl, but he did not want to kill him. He just wanted the Brown Bear to remain silent, as he felt sympathy for him.

"Roar..."

The Brown Bear did not dare to make a loud noise, despite thinking that Luan was being quite friendly. He knew how cruel and powerful Luan could be, especially to get meat from a monster of the Second Order in such a short time.

When ready, Luan took two bone skewers with meat and gave one to the Grizzly Bear. "This is for you."

Cheerfully, the Grizzly Bear took the meat skewer with his mouth and tried to imitate the way Luan held it, but without success. His claws got in the way, and he had to abstain and put the meat on the floor and eat piece by piece. As soon as he tasted the meat, he wanted to growl with happiness, but remembering Luan's warning he refrained again.

The Brown Bear's eyes shone brighter than the stars in the sky and he felt the change in his body and his strength to boot. It was much better than all the animals he and his mother had hunted before and eaten, and now he found that meat being made over a fire was even more delicious.

Luan, who started eating too, felt that the taste was acceptable, mainly because he had used some Qi-rich herbs and medicinal spices. He was almost 46 times stronger than an ordinary man with his body, and he felt that he was very close to crossing that threshold. Luan then decided to continue eating the meat and started to meditate right after.

The Grizzly Bear, who saw Luan sit cross-legged and with his eyes closed, found the action strange, but he was curious why a white, green, and a little blue aura surrounded Luan. The Grizzly Bear tilted his head in confusion the more he looked, he then tried to do the same as Luan, but his body was different from Luan's, so he thought of approaching Luan and curled up like a ball while staying near him.

When the Grizzly Bear did this, he felt strange. The pores of his body were opened and started to absorb energy. This made the Brown Bear ecstatic; he opened his eyes and closed them tightly again and didn't want to miss this chance.

It was almost 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Ingrid left wanting to see Luan, so she took the Ferrari that Luan left with her and drove to the Dimas mansion.

"What? Did he go to a dimensional crack alone?" Ingrid who was received by Catharina and was having breakfast with Maira, Cristina, and Catharina, was surprised.

"Yes, I think he wants to be strong soon because of this man who can control phantoms and turn souls into vindictive souls," Maira guessed.

"It's possible." Knowing Luan's character, Ingrid understood that he would not want someone so dangerous to live close to them.

"If the three of us go, we will only get in the way," Catharina said with a smile, "but if you go there, it will be quicker for Luan to kill the monsters and become stronger, don't you think, Ingrid?"

"Well, I think so. Even if I went up against something strong, even in the Second Order, I can still fight." Ingrid didn't deny the suggestion and decidedly added, "Okay, I'm going there. I can still stay a few more hours before I go back to keep my mother company. There is also something that I need to talk to Luan about personally."

Ingrid already felt at home, so she went to her room and changed her clothes, wearing the armor and adjusting the bone sword in its sheath. She then went to the training room and stepped through the portal.

In the dimensional gap, the place seemed quieter, it was as if there were no more living beings in this place, but in reality, the monsters were afraid, afraid to make noise, because there was a demon hunting them over and over...

Suddenly, Ingrid felt a familiar aura. She followed that aura until she arrived in front of a cave. Luan was in front of the cave and did not seem surprised by her arrival; it was as if he had anticipated that she would appear. Ingrid, however, was very happy to see Luan and ran towards him. She jumped in his arms and sealed his lips with hers.

"Thanks." Ingrid separated her lips from his and placed her head on his chest and thanked him in a soft and sincere voice.

"Oh, what are you thanking me for, may I ask?" Luan pretended not to know.

"Don't make a fool of yourself. Of course, it's because of what you made Samuel Hamibo do." Ingrid pouted, acting cute.

"As expected, I can't hide anything from you." Luan smiled and rubbed her back.

"Of course! I knew instantly that it was his fault that my sister died, mainly because he made my sister look like a decent lady who had refused to accept her father-in-law's approach, and because of that, she made him angry and he ended up making a plan to kill her," Ingrid said.

Before they could continue talking, Ingrid almost jumped when she saw a big bear come out of the cave, but she was not afraid, just surprised.

"Luan, is this your pet?" Ingrid asked as she pointed at the Brown Bear.

"So-so." Luan explained what happened and added, "It will be good to let him keep my things here in the cave."

"Yes, and he looks adorable." Ingrid asked, "Can I pet him?"

"Yes of course." Luan nodded.

Ingrid approached and the Grizzly Bear was quite docile and let Ingrid pet his head.

"Oh my God, he is so soft, and he is so meek." Ingrid said with a smile to Luan, "Let's keep him, can we?!"

"If you want, you can have him." Luan did not deny her request.

"Yup! I'm going to call you Pooh, okay?" Ingrid asked if the Grizzly Bear agreed with the name and saw him nod.
