Chapter 236: Since It’s a Beast-Eared Maiden, Let’s Add Adorable Speech Endings!
"So… have you been searching for me all this time, these past three years?"
"Woof!"
"You came from a human race nation in the East? That’s incredibly far from here? Wait, how did you know I was in this region?"
In the grand bedchamber occupying the castle’s third floor.
The silver-haired maiden sat perched upon her bed, fingers gently stroking the massive yellow wolf resting against her bedside.
"Woof! Woof!"
The yellow-furred one elaborated on the effects of its Unique Skill – Inukami.
"I see now…"
So the wish she made was truly to find me…
The pale-haired girl fell silent momentarily, warmth blossoming in her chest.
She sprang from the bedding, encircling the giant beast’s neck with her arms as she nuzzled her cheek against its furry crown.
The wolf shifted its muzzle to lick her, only to be thwarted by a swift knuckle-rapping on its skull.
"Absolutely not! If you want to lick me," she huffed, "you’ll have to wait until you transform into a beast-eared beauty!"
If that enormous tongue touched me now, my entire torso would be drenched in slobber, not just my face! So that’s completely, utterly, absolutely forbidden!!
…
"Woof!"
"Eh?? The connection formed already?"
As the wolf activated its Unique Skill – Inukami, Lin Yu perceived an ethereal thread materializing between them.
She suddenly comprehended every aspect of the lupine creature’s being as if holding its essence in her palm.
The beast couldn’t defy any command she issued – through this bond, she could even sever its life force.
This connection bore similarities to her maternal link with her daughters, yet differed fundamentally.
The crucial distinction lay in her inability to manipulate the thread… meaning control resided wholly with the golden-furred creature, who could retract this connection at will – an immutable condition beyond any order’s influence.
Moreover, unlike her daughters’ bond, she couldn’t access the wolf’s senses, perspective, or physical control, nor channel her own skills through this tether.
Though anticipated, her inability to transform the wolf into a beast-eared maid servant left Lin Yu faintly disappointed.
The golden beast then demonstrated Inukami’s possession effect – its colossal form dissolved into shimmering particles that coalesced upon Lin Yu’s décolletage.
Between the soft swells of her bosom materialized a golden emblem resembling a canine pawprint, half the size of a clenched fist.
This is possession?
After initial bewilderment, Lin Yu sensed the wolf’s presence emanating from the glowing sigil on her chest.
Yet… why must it manifest here of all places?
An odd sensation persisted, as though an actual paw perpetually pressed against her sternum.
"Master, it worked!"
"Whoa!! A sudden voice in my head made me jump!"
"Ah, could this voice mean…?"
"You can speak human language now?"
"Seems… like I can! Master, check your Attribute Panel immediately! According to the skill description, successful possession should grant partial attributes and skills!"
"Hmm."
The sudden revelation that my dog could talk felt utterly bizarre.
Still, I decided to follow her suggestion and check the panel…
The moment Lin Yu saw her Attribute Panel, she froze in astonishment.
She rapidly compared her panel with the yellow-haired one’s statistics, and the comparison left her breathless with disbelief.
This went far beyond "partial attributes and skills"!
Excluding the overlapping abilities like "Unique Skill – Inukami", "Identification", and "Defense Enhancement", every single attribute and skill from the yellow-haired being had been perfectly replicated in her panel!
Her agility stat particularly stood out, now dramatically surpassing even her intelligence parameter.
She might literally outrun speeding vehicles now.
If the yellow-haired one was a reporter, then she – having inherited its powers – had become the Hong Kong correspondent of journalists!
She proceeded to conduct some basic tests on her newly acquired enhancements…
…
"Master, how is it… meow?"
"My attributes have significantly increased, and all obtained skills function properly."
"Wonderful!"
"Ahem? The suffix, remember the suffix!"
"Wonderful… meow~"
"Good."
The silver-haired girl nodded approvingly.
For a beast-eared companion, adding adorable speech particles was absolutely essential!
Objections about a wolf/dog hybrid using "meow"? Nonsense! The feline suffix amplified cuteness exponentially!
Though this did raise questions – why hadn’t she simply adopted a cat in her previous life?
Well… cats seemed too mischievous. Moreover, among all creatures at that Pet Shop from her past existence, only the yellow-haired one had radiated that serene, obedient aura.
"Um, Master…"
"Yes?"
"…Meow."
"Yes? What is it?"
Can you give me a new, better-sounding name… meow?
Why are you bringing this up again? Absolutely not!
Meow…
…
Having grown weary of the yellow-haired one’s persistent meowing and feeling increasingly uncomfortable with the sensation between her breasts, Lin Yu ultimately instructed her to cancel the possession after testing her Unique Skill.
The golden claws embedded in her chest dissolved, and the colossal wolf materialized once more within the bedroom.
Upon reappearing, the yellow-haired creature stretched her massive frame.
The possession clearly hadn’t been pleasant for her—perhaps due to insufficient space within her host?
After completing her full-body stretch, the lupine being nuzzled closer to the silver-haired maiden.
"Woof!"
"Ah, asking about me? Indeed, I’ve shed my humanity—now I exist as an ant."
Come to think of it, the conversation had been entirely one-sided until now.
This simpleton still lacked proper understanding of their current circumstances or details about their new residence.
"Woof!"
"Demanding proof?"
Hmph! You’re just itching to see my ant form, aren’t you?
With practiced ease, Lin Yu activated her long-unused [Transformation] ability. A shimmering aura enveloped her body, and within moments, the pale-haired girl metamorphosed into a sizable white ant sporting crimson compound eyes, twitching antennae, mandibles, and six articulated limbs.
The sudden arthropodic manifestation startled the giant wolf, sending her leaping backward from the bedside.
"Woof?!"
"Chirp!"
Understandable shock—witnessing one’s master transform into an insectoid creature would strain anyone’s credulity.
After extensive explanations, the alabaster ant extended a forelimb to affectionately pat the canine’s head.
"Chirp-chirp!"
Reengaging her [Transformation], she reverted to her human race visage.
"Convinced now?"
"Whine."
The wolf nodded her massive head, then suddenly perked up with renewed urgency.
"Woof-woof?"
"Regarding them…"
Now that she mentioned it, hadn’t the wolf tracked her through the residual scent clinging to Lvzi and Army Lady?
Though "scent" here likely referred not to physical odor, but rather the traces left by her [Unique Skill – Giant Wolf].
"They’re my daughters."
"Woof?!"
Ah, those lupine eyes widened to comical proportions.
"Exactly as you’re imagining—conceived through pregnancy, nurtured in my womb, then brought forth into this world."
"BARK-BARK!!"
"Don’t be absurd! Male ants don’t even exist in this equation! Where did you pick up such notions anyway…"
"Woof! Woof!"
"From… television programs?"
"Woof!"
Incredible… Though I’d suspected as much in my previous life, to think she actually comprehends broadcast media…
Honestly, I should’ve realized something was peculiar when we started conversing so naturally.
"Whine?"
"Yes, they’re family too. You’ll need to maintain good relations with them."
Lin Yu paused meaningfully before continuing.
"I’ll introduce you properly later—both to them and our castle! It may appear dilapidated, but compared to our old home? Dozens of times larger! Countless rooms await—we’ll tour them all, and you may claim whichever pleases you."
"Arf-arf!"
"Want to room with me? You leave me no choice," she sighed in mock resignation.
