Chapter 34: Little Puppy Is Real?!

Chapter 34: Little Puppy Is Real?!

Evelyn did not see anything too wrong with her request, and so she allowed Cecilia to pet her hair.

It did make her a little uncomfortable, but since the twintailed girl had answered all her questions so faithfully, Evelyn did not mind giving out such a small reward in return.

Thankfully, the girl didn't completely mess it up, and was very gentle, just like she had been with little Ruru. It deepened Evelyn's good impression of Cecilia a bit more.

Unfortunately, the Gilmore siblings had to find her right at that moment, and Vivian immediately demonstrated the might of her 'little hamster quick attack' on Cecilia.

Evelyn felt embarrassed, since Cecilia was a guest after all, and she hadn't done anything to deserve a full set of kiddy teeth marks on her arm.

"Uh, I'm sorry about her, she's very protective of me. Vivi, apologize to Cecilia, okay? You shouldn't attack people out of nowhere."

The tiny redhead glared at the ashy-blonde, her gaze full of unconcealed hostility. If not for Amara holding the little redhead quite firmly, she would probably rush over to do it again.

"I'm sorry. Humph!"

It didn't look like she wasn't sorry at all, and Amara could only apologize on her behalf.

But there was no trace of anger in Cecilia's expression. Instead, she looked more amused than anything else.

"It's fine. I think she's very adorable. Is she also one of your cousins?"Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m

Evelyn sighed. If only her cousin was someone adorable and reasonable, she would be so happy. No, as long as it hadn't been Tristan, she would already be satisfied.

"No but you can say she's my 'little sister', and this is my 'older sister', Amara Gilmore."

Cecilia nodded politely to the older redhead, even if she was a little confused.

Amara nodded back but remained mostly silent as before, as if something else was on her mind.

Evelyn seemed to get the hint, and bid farewell to Cecilia shortly.

"Please come again whenever you like, okay?"

Cecilia smiled. "I'll try, but it's probably not happening. We'll meet in the academy so don't forget me until then."

Evelyn could only awkwardly nod. Who knows what could happen in two years? Even if she remembered, Cecilia may forget her instead.

They had only met once, after all, and there was no deep bond between them. As far as Evelyn was concerned, easily established bonds were also the most easily dissolved.

"Um okay"

Cecilia watched the three of them leave with a smile, wondering how wonderful it would be if she could stay here longer.

There was a tiny pink fox, a cute pink fox girl, and an angry little red hamster. Wouldn't every day be full of fun and adventures?

Her smile faded away as she walked back to the other ancient family children.

"Huh"

Some of her previous doubts were instantly cleared.

Her probe skill had previously failed to get any results from Bree, but after her drastic decrease in stats, she was able to view most of her details.

This meant that as long as someone wasn't absurdly stronger than herself, the probe skill could still show its usefulness.

The so called unknown object was definitely Bree's 'inheritance', and despite the system's recommendation, Evelyn wasn't sure if it was a good idea to remove it from her body.

It was very likely that her current state was due to the misuse of the technique in the inheritance rather than the maliciousness of the inheritance itself.

As for 'Qilin's Tears', it was definitely what had ended up saving her life, even if she didn't know the exact details.

It made her angry just thinking about it. If not for this strange blessing, wouldn't Bree have ended up dead already?

After she figured out a way to fix her up, she definitely had to teach her a lesson!

More importantly, just how was she supposed to deal with this?

The little golden puppy kept trying to jump from her arms towards her face, continuously going 'Wuff wuff' and then licking her palm happily.

Evelyn couldn't bring herself to scold her at all!

Vivian was only a little curious about where the puppy came from, but the look on Amara's face was something to behold.

'No wonder lady Isabella called her little puppy! But wait does that mean lord Desmond transforms into a pig?!'
