Chapter 6: Man cannot be unseen
Translated by Alice of Exiled Rebels Scanlations
When Jinyu finally opened his eyes, it was to the sight of that huge, alligator-like head shaped ceiling lamp .
The reason he said it was like a ceiling lamp was because the alligator head’s mouth, eyes, and ears were emitting beams of light . But even if Jinyu stared at the alligator head all day, carefully a.n.a.lyzing every aspect, he still would not be able to conclude whether or not it was a real thing or just an emulation .
“Oh! That’s just the first B+ level Tidal Alligator . Isn’t it pretty cool? What do you think about it?”
At that moment Jinyu’s right side turned towards Lixiao’s excited and c.o.c.ky chatter, however after Lixiao finished speaking, Jinyu silently turned his body towards the left and used his zebrstriped hand to cover his face, only allowing a small crack to peak out .
Really, how would anyone else feel if they woke up first thing to the gaping jaws of an alligator head?! Even if he did have any thoughts, wouldn’t it only be to jump out the window?!
“Haha! Look at you! I said early on that the alligator lamp had to be switched . Who knows how scared witless little brother Jinyu is! Who knew this little kid’s interests were so weird . ”
At that moment, Jinyu just discovered that there was another person on his right side all along, with the same orange-colored fur as that porcupine . This caused the corner of his mouth to twitch, flipping over to the side and closing his eyes so he wouldn’t see it .
“Hmmmph, my interests are weird? I’m definitely much better than a big guy who paints his whole room orange, the outside looking like a tangerine, and has all the furniture and everything inside the house orange! Does the old man think you were an orange in your previous life? This reincarnation you’re an adult, this really is f.u.c.king[1] mistreating you!” In comparison to the beast-loving fanatic Lixiao’s verbal a.s.saults, the orange porcupine’s took much more glee in bullying him .
Jinyu received the sudden urge to take off his shoe and throw it at someone’s face when he overheard their conversation . You guys are so incompetent[2], what right do you have to be judging others?!
To stop the two rascals from continuing their savage conversation that only made it hard for others to listen to, Jinyu let out a sigh, jumping out of bed, voice ringing out like an ominous, wandering spirit, “What about dumba.s.s[3] Xiaolu?”
Even though Lixiao didn’t know what dumba.s.s meant, but it didn’t prevent him from understanding that this was a modifier for Xiaolu . Lixiao stopped his banter with the orange porcupine, smiling wide before answering, “He should be watching television downstairs . ”
Jinyu twitched his lips and nodded before tossing his bed covers to the side .
At the same time, he should still be thankful that even in this chaotic world, although the outer appearance of these beasts and things were a bit strange, it wasn’t something completely incomprehensible . Of course, maglev cars, animals that carried people, ancient carts, and s.p.a.ceships were all inevitable results of a chaotic world . As long as Jinyu understood the general trend, that would be fine .
“Thank G.o.d I wasn’t thrown into a ditch full of crawling insects . . ”
Silently drawing the word for “ten” on his chest, Jinyu took the stairs down one by one . Currently, the sky outside was dark but underneath the white light of the porcupine lamp, Xiaolu lounged comfortably on the animal-skin rug, eyes glued to the laser screen, watching with rapt attention .
“…” Seeing the female rabbit on the screen, injured and shivering with fright, Jinyu felt uncomfortable . “Don’t watch it anymore . Men-beasts are too violent, you guys are good for nothings . ” After coldly saying this, Jinyu wanted to continue being shameless and wanted to sit on the animal-skin couch uninvited, then point with his finger and say, “Come over here and let me see if your heart has healed . ”
A moment ago Xiaolu was still drooping his head because of Jinyu’s acidic words but as soon as he heard Jinyu’s new command, he obediently scurried to Jinyu’s feet, behaving himself and allowing Jinyu to inspect him .
Xiaolu’s obedient behavior caused the orange porcupine to gape as if it just swallowed a large orange . Even though he already heard from Lixiao that the boy had a knack for controlling animals, the porcupine still said, “That kind of technique is difficult even for high-level beast trainers! Also, are you sure that that beast is even your family’s? Last time the old man laughed because its tail was a bit short and so it chased the old man halfway down the street . And, afterwards it still managed to chew up my orange tree?!”
Even though Lixiao’s words were a bit short, he still asked sincerely, “This is why I said Xiaolu really is quite something . Xiaolu’s temper may not be great, up until now he’s been an cla.s.s beast that sometimes roaring and throws fits at me, but in front of you, Little Jin, he’s like a large, docile cat . En, according to Xiaolu and from my observations, you’re a huge force that can suppress the beast inside him just with a point of the finger . ”
“Haha?! That little boy is a formidable beast? He looks like he can barely live and now we’re talking about his fighting abilities…Haha, you really can’t judge a book by its cover . In the end you’re just a guy who can’t do anything and fills people’s teeth with gold instead, causing them to drop out . ” [4] The orange porcupine stuck out his tongue as he mocked Jinyu .

Hearing his words, Lixiao sneered, “Chengliang, didn’t you say you can’t judge a book by its cover . Why is someone of your level telling another to practice the ancient language?”
