The sun had already set below the horizon and the arranged time had come. The males who did not arrive in time would thus, not count.
Gu Mengmeng sat on Elvis's shoulder and allowed him to carry her out like a queen making her rounds to overlook the males who had just returned from their hunt. It was undeniable that Auretin's prey were the most and even a naked eye could spot the difference. There was no need to measure anything.
Gu Mengmeng patted Elvis's shoulder, signaling him to put her down.
As she touched the ground, Gu Mengmeng walked directly to Auretin and asked, "You returned much earlier than many males. How did you manage to get so much prey?"
Auretin lifted the sides of his mouth at Gu Mengmeng. This smile could forcefully be categorized into one used by a high school hooligan when extorting money from a junior. Although it was a little infuriating, since the corners of his lips were curling upwards, it should be considered as a smile.
Seeing how Gu Mengmeng's expression was a little weird, Auretin kept that smile that even he found awkward. After resuming his expressionless face as cold as an icicle, he answered, "I secured Sauder's entrance so everyone who came back had to split half of their prey with me or else I'll kill them and snatch all their prey away."
Gu Mengmeng was so shocked until she stared at him with her mouth agape. No wonder he accomplished that extortion look with so much perfection just now, tsk tsk tsk, Gu Mengmeng felt that she was a reincarnated Monkey King because of her sharp eyes.
Looking back at Elvis, she realized that both Elvis and Lea had a tinge of synchronized laughing intention in their eyes.
She tugged onto Elvis's arm and asked, "Did you... do this kind of thing before?"
Elvis nodded his head to admit with pleasure and even.... a little bit of damn pride.
Lea swayed his large tail lightly to wrap it around Gu Mengmeng's waist. He knew what Gu Mengmeng was thinking about so he took the initiative to answer her doubts, "Being able to snatch the prey from other males' hands proves that his abilities are better than those males. Looking at this amount... he must've felt that he would definitely win before he stopped and before he stopped, he didn't lose a single battle or else all these prey would've been stolen by others long ago. Ha, judging by his skills, even if he was to go on a hunt, he will also definitely win but he chose to use this kind of method... seems like showcasing his abilities to you is his real motive."
"Oh..." Gu Mengmeng hummed, not fully understanding what he had just said. She was still thinking to herself, what a bird from ancient times, how different was his train of thoughts? What exactly made them think that the more cruel they are and the more fights they win, girls would like them more?
Gu Mengmeng smacked her lips and thought, "As compared to those hooligans in school, those Prince Charming seniors from the swimming club were much more popular. Everyday, they just soaked themselves in the water with just a swimming trunk and the moment they came out from the water, crystal-clear water droplets splashed in all directions... hiss, that's truly what you call salivating."
"Xiao Meng, " Elvis called Gu Mengmeng back into reality with a darkened face. Gu Mengmeng wiped the saliva off her mouth and realized that she was salivating at Auretin when she was actually thinking of other people.
F*** it, this time, she could not explain herself anymore. Elvis would be more certain that she had taken a fancy on this white tiger.
Gu Mengmeng sighed, at least she knew that she was innocent. Thus, she opened her mouth to ask again, "Since you're the one with the most prey today, I'll send you an invitation on behalf of Saint Nazaire to welcome you in joining Saint Nazaire."
Auretin remained silent for a while, his face still as cold as ice. He said without any expression, "I want to be your guardian beast. Unless you agree, I'll not be willing to join Saint Nazaire."
