Chapter 208 - Meeting The White Bear Cubs

Darian was quite surprised by what he was seeing. Somehow he knew that those animals were resting next to a hot spring pool.

They were true predators which, despite their small size, would not hesitate to rip off an arm if they had the opportunity.

"Those single white bear cubs that had bragged to me so much, right?"

Jesper nodded "Indeed, those little animals are the white bear cubs that we managed to capture during our expedition to the north.

In fact, we managed to get so many white bearskins that I am sure you will be able to buy tomorrow if you get up early some bearskins that are still on the market.

Darian took a deep breath "It is possible that I can buy one of those bear cubs. I would really like to give my father a great gift."

Jesper showed a somewhat concerned face "I cannot give you an answer to your question as you would have to ask Herald Einar.

But in case you accept with pleasure, I would like to tell you everything that is needed so that the cub can grow without problems. "

"What a wonderful little animal, but I feel a real sense of danger. It is not like lions that are majestic.

His beauty and danger are camouflaged in his small looks. I'll talk to Einar about it.

But I would like to ask if I can come in and see them up close. Something inside me asks me to see them. "

Jesper scratched his head "I could let you in but you will have to follow my instructions closely because otherwise, it does not guarantee your safety and that of your guards.

Although they are still small cubs, they are already beginning to show an increasingly aggressive attitude towards anyone.

Even we, as their caretakers, are in constant danger. "

Darían nodded and looked at his guards "Remember to follow all of Jesper's directions, if any of you do something stupid I'll see to it that you suffer the consequences."

The two guards only swallowed hard and with a Roman salute, they indicated that they would respect Jesper's instructions.

After seeing the strange greeting, Jesper told them to follow him to the doors of the habitat to enter with the cubs.

As they passed through the doors of the cubs' habitat, Darían was quite happy because I can see these dangerous animals up close.

Although it was not the first time that he had seen cubs, as sometimes brown bear cubs were bought or sold in the city, it was the first time that he had seen white bears.

Jesper, noticing Darían's face, only sighed, and from the place where they kept the food he took out a fish, which quickly attracted the attention of the little cubs, which began to run because they wanted to eat that meat.

Seeing how the cubs were approaching, Jesper made a small cry with which he suddenly calmed them down. This surprised Darían and his guards quite a bit.

Well, it was the first time they had seen a trainer in their lives, Jesper after seeing that all the cubs were completely calm.

He made some sounds, and he does some indications, all of them quite simple but very functional because the cubs lined up in a row as if they were dogs.

Although this could mean complete domination of the animals, Jesper knew it was only an illusion as the cubs were growing, and it was very likely that they would stop obeying him.

Raising his hand, he showed the fish to the cubs, for which he got their attention "They would give if you want to pet any of the cubs this is the moment.

Because if I don't give them the fish, they will very likely try to pounce on me to get their food."

Darían approached the little cubs with some fear and in the end ended up choosing one that caught her attention, for having more hair than the others.

When he got close enough, he stretched out his hand and began to caress the soft white fur of the cub, who only showed a face with doubt because he did not understand the action of the human in front of him.

When Jesper saw how well the cub was behaving, just a pure sigh of relief can the animal's face show no sign that it bothered to be caressed.

After a few minutes, Jesper motioned for Darían to get away from the cub so he could feed them.

Darían then stopped stroking the cub and watched curiously as they lunged at the large fish Jesper had left on the ground.

"They are fantastic animals, I just hope that Einar, I am willing to sell some of these animals, it will be a great attraction for our people."

Jesper just smiled "Do you want to see how they feed and behave or do you want to go out for some other action.

Either way, you can always come back here and see them, although you will not be allowed in unless I or my son are accompanying you. This is because it is very dangerous. "

Darían scratched his forehead and shook his head "I would like to stay longer looking at these animals, but I want to review the construction of the Palace on the hill.

According to Einar, it will be a fairly large and safe building for his whole family, not to mention that it will also be the headquarters of the bank that he did. "

Jesper nodded and walked over to the food storage container inside, pulled out two more fish, and looked at Darían with a smile.

"I recommend that you cover your face using a hat because now the sun is a little stronger than usual, which is quite good because this time of year is when the sun is best on the island.

Since when summer starts the situation is simply unbearable, one day we can be sunny, and in a few hours, it is already raining.

But either way, if you need my help with something you can always come get me, whether I am in the temporary stables washing the animals or in this place taking care of these cubs. "

Darían nodded and after saying goodbye, he headed for the hill where the Palace was being built because he wanted to see how far along he was.

Because maybe he could end up being a good inspiration for his brother.
