Chapter 531 A bonded beast?
Sebastian let out an annoyed huff when a young server told him that someone was looking for him outside the building.
He furrowed his brows, wondering who it could be since all the people he knew were seated with him. But his curiosity got the best of him, so after informing his friends that he would be stepping out for a bit, he stood up and left the table.
Yue gazed at his fading figure and let out a deep breath. She quickly placed the glass that Sebastian had handed her on the table, but she had already taken a few sips of the fruity drink because so many people were asking her to, even the females. Moreover, the drink turned out to be stronger than her expectations, and after just a few sips, she could feel its effects.
She sighed and looked under the table where Nox was seated, eating meat from the plate placed before him.
The lynx refrained from climbing the table because he disliked it when others touched his body. Nox looked up when he sensed Yue's gaze and tilted his head.
'What happened?'
His voice echoed in her head, and Yue pinched her brows with a frown.
'It's barely been a day since we got here, and Sebastian is already getting on my nerves. Also...'
She hesitated, wanting to mention that she had been sensing an intense gaze on her for some reason. Điscover new chapters at novelhall.com
Nox let out a sneer.
'I suggested you just pummel him... but hold on... you have already done that numerous times, and it seems like he enjoys being beaten up by you. So, you taking a swing at him is off the table. How about I handle him this time?'
'Kyle!!!!'
His eyes widened in shock as he gazed at the man opposite him.
Kyle casually flung Sebastian's battered body aside with a click of his tongue and abandoned the weeping elf to fend for himself. He glanced at the pseudo-divine rank beast that had stealthily entered his presence concealing array a while ago, only to be met with a pair of astonished blue eyes fixed on him as if they had encountered a ghost.
"..."
Kyle furrowed his brows, and before Nox could react, he vanished from his spot and grabbed the lynx by his neck, staring at his body with a curious expression.
"A bonded beast? I have seen a few on my way here, but to whom do you belong? Don't tell me you are bonded with the idiot I just beat up?"
Nox was left gaping at him, but his shock soon morphed into bewilderment. How could the human not recognize him when he vividly remembers the day Kyle wanted to cook and eat him up!?
That's just not fair! Hold on, maybe it's because he has changed a lot in the last few years. Yeah, that's it, but then again, his body hasn't changed much, so why is the human looking at him with eyes that seem to suggest he doesn't know him.
Nox's body tensed as Kyle sniffed the air around him. The human's eyes lit up with a strange glint, and a sense of foreboding welled up inside the lynx's heart.
This feeling was proven correct when he heard the human's next words.
"Are you Yue's bonded beast? I can smell her scent connected with you. How about I take you to meet your bonded partner? It's a dangerous night, you know. You could get lost in a dark alley."
