Chapter 3: Origin (3)
As if in response to her question, the kitten meowed, and the little girl shuddered, because she actually understood what it meant.
Kitten: "My bite is a ritual to recognize you as the master." ”
"Accept me?" the little girl continued to stay, waking up with a broken scream, "Calling me the master?"
"Meow!" Yes.
"How could it be...... And I just met you, what are you kidding!" Now you are really in a relationship with the phantom **, "Don't you examine the character of your future master before you recognize the master?
How do you ask a cat to answer such a complicated question as "......"? Even if it is a phantom beast, it is only a "young beast" and really doesn't understand anything.
"Meow Meow ......"
What should have been psychic communication came into the little girl's mind again.
"Your eyes tell me you're the master I'm looking for. ”
"Uh...... It turns out that you are still a divine cat who understands 'prophecy'...... I believe you're a ghost!" the little girl had her teeth and eyes, and she typically turned her face faster than she did in a book.
According to common sense, the owner of the phantom beast generally needs to be incubated and after three to four months of time with the owner, and the owner must start cultivating it when the phantom beast is still an egg.
But what about this cat? Not only was it not bred by her own hands, but it was just picked up, should you say both, is this dependent on herself?
The little girl unconsciously reached out and pinched her face, it hurt!
"It hurts, right? You're not dreaming, I'm not your average phantom beast. ”
The little guy's tone is firm and his attitude is arrogant, which makes the little girl feel even more unsafe, but ...... Anyway, there are a lot of strange things in the world, what's so strange about encountering one? And I got a phantom beast for nothing, although it is a little smaller, but it should still be usable, (the idea is a little too much) Thinking about this, the little girl also accepted her fate, and a huge smile bloomed on her face.
"Hehe, it's fun, okay...... Dare to follow me, you are a good cat, your courage is commendable!"
"......" The kitten's round eyes widened, and she suddenly had a bad premonition.
"It's such a happy decision, I admit that you are my phantom beast...... Well...... As the master, I'll have to give you a name, yes, a name, what's the name?" the little girl lay down in the grass, dragging her cheeks in contemplation.
The kitten also accepted her fate, since she was determined to be her master at a glance, then she should have the consciousness of being a phantom beast, what can it do? It is just a weak, pitiful and helpless phantom beast!
Alas, the days of freedom are over, who told it that its owner was here?
Uh, it seems to be yourself......
The kitten sighed to herself on the side, and the little girl suddenly snapped her fingers and shouted, "Little Yama! That's right, it's called Little Yama!"
"Meow meow ...... "What?
"Because you look very dark, we met at night, and the name of Little Yama is the most suitable for the situation. ”
"Meow meow meow...... Meow Meow ...... "It's your dark thoughts, right? No, no......
Kitten's protest of dissatisfaction.
"Protest is invalid, I am the master!"
Hearing this, Kitten, no, Little Hades once again affirmed that his future life was about to be very "miserable".

In the camp of the hunting troops, the lights are bright, and the people celebrating the hunting harvest are full of joy, and the songs and laughter are endless, resounding through the grassland. In the midst of all the excitement, the tent belonging to the young man was unexpectedly quiet.
The magic lamp steadily illuminated the whole tent, and the boy was reading a book in a slump, dressed casually, covered with a thick blanket, and in the early autumn season, he had already lived a winter life, and it was obvious that the boy's physical condition was very bad.
The young man flipped through the book quietly, and the soft light reflected a hazy sense of illusion, and the picture seemed to be a precious picture. Avril burst in with a huff, completely destroying the silence.
"Avril?" the boy looked up strangely, and almost laughed out loud the next second, "What's wrong with you?
Avril had three slender blood streaks on her left cheek, which looked a little out of place, but ...... It's not ugly.
The boy struggled to control his smile and asked with a concerned expression.
"It's not the dead cat's doing!" Avril said angrily, slamming a kitten to the ground.
Only then did the boy notice the trembling little furball, and before he could react, the little furball rushed to the collapse with a "whoop", and especially unceremoniously burrowed into the blanket and continued to tremble.
"Uh......" The young man opened his hand, held the book, and looked at the little furball in astonishment, "Hi, hello......"
"A broken cat, you say hello to it, are you crazy?" Avril yelled in a furious voice.
What should be the reaction then?
The boy put down the book and tried to gouge the little furball out of the blanket, but without success.
Embarrassment –
"What the hell is going on?
"I should have killed it directly, this damn dead cat a thousand times and ten thousand times, stupid cat, has been making a lot of trouble since it was caught, whoever approaches to catch whom, who touches and bites whom, it pisses me off......," Avril recounted the incident indignantly.
The boy looked at the little furball, it was indeed a cat, a very beautiful and cute raccoon cat, he didn't expect it to be so fierce.
(A certain cat: That's right, that's what you think, it's the little Hades.) )
Little Yama "meowed", his voice was small and weak, obviously still in fear, and the young man tried to caress its trembling body, carefully soothing, and didn't even bother to say that his sister was too vicious.
With a little more patience, the little one is nowhere near as difficult as Avril says he is.
"If it weren't for the fact that this stupid cat is pretty and I should have killed it, hmph! ”
Avril said as she suddenly walked over to take little Hades away.
Little Yama screamed and desperately got into the boy's arms, grabbing him with his two paws, and he was in a posture of not leaving.
Fortunately, it was still a kitten, and if it was a little bigger, the claws would penetrate the clothes, and the boy would definitely be scratched, but even so, there were still several scratches on the back of his unprotected hands.
"Alright, alright, alright, alright......" The young man hugged the little Hades, and while he was busy comforting, he skillfully dodged Avril's snatch.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Avril disagreed.
"Forget it, it's frightened, it's scared enough, you don't have to deal with a cat. ”
"Don't ......"
"I like it, so give it to me!" the boy automatically ignored Avril's protest and said in a gentle tone that could not be refuted, "I can exchange anything with you, it hurts you, and I apologize to you on its behalf." ”
Apparently, he knew very well how to deal with this sister.
"Really?" said Avril.
As expected, the third brother will definitely relent, leaving this kitten that should have been killed, fortunately, she is smart enough to think of using it in exchange for sympathy, if the eldest brother and the second brother will definitely not work, Avril snickered in her heart.
"Then I want the necklace of the 'Elf Pearl' you received on your birthday a few days ago!"
"Okay, I'll give it to you when I go back, go and rest!" the young man happily agreed, smiling as always.
A rare treasure like the 'Elven Pearl' may be precious in the eyes of others, and of course, he thinks it is very valuable, but that's all, a cold ornament really can't compare to a living life.
