Gu Mengmeng was confused so she tilted her head and waited for Lea to continue.
Upon seeing how Gu Mengmeng was not that angry at Elvis anymore, Lea did not leave her hanging as he continued, “Fifth-level orcs like Elvis can normally accompany you for an entire lifetime unless you eat him up. And third-level orcs like me probably….can only live for 30 years even if I don’t die from a battle or get eaten up by you. I’m 21 this year so if I managed myself well…..Mengmeng, I can still accompany you for another 10 years.”
Gu Mengmeng was dumbfounded as her expression became rather solemn.
10 years…..
Was Lea’s life actually starting to experience a countdown already?
Gu Mengmeng bit her lower lip and asked cowardly, “Are you……lying to me? How can beasts only live for 30 years? The physique of the people in my world differ so much from you guys but they have no problem living till 70 to 80 years old……”
Lea smiled radiantly, looking as if he did not see death seriously at all. He said in a calm tone, “Males without the acceptance of any female means that they’re losers who have been eliminated and they do not have any need to exist. So, normally speaking, males who have no found a partner before 10 years old would voluntarily join some females’ family as storage food. To them, if their females are able to last through winter, that’s already the largest value in their lives.”
Gu Mengmeng said, “But I had already accepted you, aren’t you my beast pet?”
Lea chuckled, his gaze encompa.s.sing envy that could not be wiped away. Looking at Gu Mengmeng’s exposed collarbone, he said. “Acceptance without a mark will not be acknowledged by the Beast Deity. But it’s alright, even if it’s only 10 years…..I’ll still protect you well.”
Hiss hiss hiss…..
The little snakes were hurrying them up.
Gu Mengmeng wanted to say something but Lea rubbed her head and comforted her, “Don’t pity me, I don’t feel that my 10 years of life is any more pathetic than Snakel’s endless and pointless life. Unless….you decide to abandon me in 10 years.”
Gu Mengmeng shook her head and her mood became rather complicated, she did not know what to say.
Hiss hiss hiss…..
The colorful snakes raised their upper bodies, making their intention more obvious.
Lea and Elvis exchanged glances before they nodded their heads and lightly turned Gu Mengmeng’s body, pus.h.i.+ng her towards the entrance. “If you don’t leave any sooner, Snake would not allow you to come back and stay with us anymore.”
“But…..”
“No buts, Elvis and I will continue working on Hede and the other two. I’ll settle the food and make them more delicate for you. If you’ve anything you wish to eat, you can tell the little snakes in the cave. They will transfer the message to me.”
Gu Mengmeng turned back and saw how Lea and Elvis stood beside each other at the entrance, witnessing her leave.
Gu Mengmeng bowed her head in sorrow and did not say anything else, she just followed the colorful snakes back to Snakel’s cave.
She was still scared of snakes so she did not dare to step too close to them. The little snakes were also aware that she was scared of them so they did not show any dangerous behavior as long as she did not leave the safe zone.
“Gu Mengmeng.” Halfway through the journey, a female’s voice rang, interrupting Gu Mengmeng’s route.
Looking up, Gu Mengmeng squinted and saw a female standing against the sunlight at a high spot. She could not see her appearance but just found her voice to be rather familiar.
“Ha, you’re indeed the messenger of the Beast Deity. You’re really quite capable to have all the outstanding males in the world revolving around you.” Her voice, alone, encompa.s.sed evil and jealousy that could not be hidden but the sunlight was too bright so Gu Mengmeng could not figure out who the person was.
