A Guide to Raising Your Natural Enemy

Unedited chapter

96. Hamster Little Beastman

The three spaceships slowly landed and stopped in the desert area near the newly built base. After the spaceships were settled, people who had experienced the long interstellar voyage could hardly wait to get off the spaceships.

The gravity and the air on the Fallen Beast Planet were not the same at all as in the capital star, and nor were they the same as the environment simulated on board the spaceships. After the doors of the spaceships were opened, a large number of people on the spaceships slowed down to acclimatize themselves, and then they saw yellow sand as far as the eye could see.

There was no desert in the capital star. This desert on the Fallen Beast Planet made many people exclaim in astonishment. After that, they saw many fallen beasts in the distance.

This planet really deserved to be called the Fallen Beast Planet; there were actually so many fallen beasts here!

"Your Imperial Highness, Imperial Guard Kevin reports to you." A handsome young man jumped down from the spaceship belonging to the imperial family, stood in front of Edgar, and saluted Edgar. Seeing Edgar keep a humanoid form, his hands trembled slightly, and he blurted out excitedly, "Your Imperial Highness, have you recovered? It’s really great!"

When the imperial guard was in the capital star, he was responsible for protecting the imperial family, and his relationship with the imperial family had always been very good. Kevin was once Edgar's junior schoolmate, so his relationship with Edgar was even closer.

"Kevin." Edgar nodded at Kevin and then ordered someone to unload everything Kevin brought from the spaceship.

Kevin brought many people, including doctors and childcare experts, but most of them were soldiers. The soldiers were well-adapted to interstellar travel and also very orderly. They quickly transported the supplies after the spaceship stopped, and everything looked well-organized.

Everything was clear and in good order here, but the other two spaceships there looked a little chaotic.

The civilian spaceship was organized by an interstellar adventure group. Among them were many adventurers, who were very curious about the Fallen Beast Planet and wanted to come to the Fallen Beast Planet to take a look, as well as some families of the fallen beasts on the Fallen Beast Planet.

The long interstellar voyage made the people on this spaceship a little dispirited and listless. They scrambled to get off the spaceship early without giving thought to others and caused a small riot. After leaving the spaceship, most of them still looked blank, obviously unsure of what to do and where to go next.

As for the private spaceship, two beastmen came down from it as soon as it stopped, and now they were anxiously looking everywhere for a doctor. Apparently, the owner of the spaceship was sick.

The Fallen Beast Planet currently lacked management. Edgar did not want too many people to come here and was not particularly welcoming to the two spaceships. But people had already come, and he also couldn’t ignore them.

After telling the soldiers to register the people coming down from the civilian spaceship and persuade them to keep staying on the spaceship as well as letting Reynolds take Jones to check out the private spaceship, Edgar finally waited for Shu Shu’s arrival.

"Edgar, there’re a lot of delicious things?" Shu Shu ran a little hurriedly, eyes as bright as the full moon.

"Yeah." Edgar nodded. He had already ordered someone to bring the fine food and set it aside earlier. Now, seeing Shu Shu coming over, he immediately stuffed an enormous fresh-keeping box into Shu Shu's hands.

Opening the fresh-keeping box, Shu Shu saw all sorts of desserts and fruits.

This fresh-keeping box had a freezing effect, so the desserts and fruits inside were a bit iced. Shu Shu took a piece of dessert from the box, put it in his mouth, and immediately closed his eyes in satisfaction.

This dessert was an ice cream cake, which was icy cold and tasted very, very delicious when eaten in the blistering hot and dry desert. It was simply yummy.

After eating the cake, Shu Shu quickly chose a sugar ball with a layer of crunchy nuts on the outside . . . . The outer layer of the sugar ball was very crispy, but the filling was a liquid with a strong milk flavor . . . . Shu Shu did not know exactly what the liquid was, but he knew that it was icy-cold and particularly delicious.

Shu Shu began to stuff food into his mouth incessantly. Some were eaten by him, and some were stored by him. After he ate for a while, a pair of small hands suddenly grabbed him, and then a child hugged his leg.

"Mum . . . Mum . . . ." Xiao Bao hugged Shu Shu's leg and uttered some simple syllables. He kept swallowing his saliva as he stared at the food box in Shu Shu's hand. Recently, he had been staying in the spirit gathering formation every day, and the duration in which he turned into a human form was getting longer.

Could children eat dessert? How much could they eat? Shu Shu did not dare to feed Xiao Bao too many snacks. He finally took out a fruit and stuffed it into Xiao Bao's mouth.

As a beastman, Xiao Bao was not particularly fond of eating fruits, but he had very few chances to eat fruits on the Fallen Beast Planet, and the taste of those fruits was basically not so good, so now the fragrant and sweet fruit in his mouth made him like it very much. He immediately opened his mouth wide and continued to demand for more.

Shu Shu stuffed him with another one.

Shu Shu himself ate three, fed the child one, and then picked another fruit for the child to eat. It did not take long for all the food in the food box to be eaten up.

Edgar took the empty food box in Shu Shu's hand and stuffed him with a full one.

"You’re really good, Edgar!" Shu Shu took the food box and kissed Edgar happily.

Shu Shu's soft lips fell on his face, making his face numb and his heart tingle . . . . Edgar could not do anything in the public place with numerous people, so he just picked Xiao Bao up and kissed his face, tasting some fruit juice in the kiss.

"Edgar." Just as their family of three were being joyous and harmonious, a voice suddenly intruded.

This voice was somewhat familiar. Shu Shu, who was busy eating, turned his head and found that the person who came over was actually Myer.

In Shu Shu's memory, Myer was full of grandeur, but now he looked wan and sallow and had lost a lot of weight. Nevertheless, all of this did not reduce his looks into a sick beauty. He looked at Edgar with joy, and tears emerged in his eyes uncontrolled, but he still managed to restrain himself in the end and did not shed any tears. After calming down, the excited expression on his face was also collected.

"Myer?" Edgar glanced at Myer in surprise and then looked behind Myer, only to realize that the private spaceship belonged to Myer.

As the son of a duke, and very talented at that, it was not strange at all for Myer to have a private spaceship. But he actually didn’t expect that Myer would go so far as to rush over here from thousands of miles away.

"I heard that your beast core’s broken . . . . Are you all right?" Myer's voice somewhat quavered, but when Edgar listened carefully, he could not hear it again.

"I'm fine. Shu Shu helped me restore it." Edgar said; his expression was very gentle when he mentioned Shu Shu. A second later, he remembered something. "You came to find Calvin? He's over there."

In Edgar's impression, Myer and Calvin's relationship had always been very good, and Calvin also liked Meyer . . . . He regarded these two men as a couple.

Myer stopped breathing for an instant and then laughed bitterly.

After he knew that Edgar had an accident, he was very worried and rushed over here from thousands of miles away. He fell ill on the road and even had to be supported to come down from the spaceship. As a result, this was what he got in the end.

Although he had long realized that he and Edgar were no longer possible, but it was not until this moment that all his unwillingness disappeared completely.

Edgar really didn't think of him at all.

Myer raised his head and saw Calvin standing nearby staring at him. He took a deep breath and then walked towards Calvin.

The arrival of these three spaceships brought a burgeoning vitality to the base.

Although there were many fallen beasts in this base before, but because the fallen beasts could not speak, it made this place looked more like a large zoo than a human base. Now was different though; there were a lot of people and human voices here.

Some beastmen and sub-beastmen who came to find their fallen beast relatives brought out a lot of laughter in the base after getting reunited with their fallen beast relatives. Of course, some people were happy, some were anxious, and some who did not find their close relatives in the base ultimately looked sad.

But Edgar had no time to take care of all this because he and Shu Shu's second child was about to come out of the shell.

This child had stayed in Shu Shu's belly for a relatively long time, but after being birthed by Shu Shu, his development speed inside the eggshell was faster than Xiao Bao’s.

As a matter of fact, the egg could already move not long after being put in the spirit gathering formation. And now, there was a crack appearing on the eggshell.

Many people saw the moment Xiao Bao was born, but Shu Shu and Edgar did not intend to let others see the birth of this child—maybe a sub-beastman would come out of the egg, and since a sub-beastman baby was born naked, how could they let him be seen by irrelevant people?

The egg was held in Shu Shu’s arms while being gently caressed and stroked by Edgar. Both of them were constantly inputting spiritual power into the egg . . . yet the egg’s speed of breaking the shell was still very slow. It seemed that he was not in the slightest hurry to come out.

"Why’s this child so slow in breaking the shell?" Having waited for quite a long time without seeing the crack widen, Shu Shu was a little depressed. "I’m hungry."

"I'll get you something to eat." Hearing that Shu Shu was hungry, Edgar immediately went to the kitchen. It did not take long for him to come back in with some piping hot food in both hands.

There were two chefs among the people who came this time. They were now responsible for cooking for Shu Shu and Xiao Bao to ensure that whenever Shu Shu wanted to eat, the food would be prepared quickly.

Holding the child, Shu Shu started to eat the food in front of him.

There was also rice in the Beastman Empire. Since Shu Shu preferred rice to other staple foods, the chef often cooked rice for him to eat. Today, the chef cooked fried rice.

Fried rice with a lot of ingredients smelled especially fragrant, and Shu Shu’s saliva was about to flow out . . . .

"I love you. I’m in love with you. Just like mice love rice . . . ." Shu Shu hummed a song and gobbled up the fried rice in front of him. As he ate happily, the egg in his hand suddenly produced a scratching sound.

The child inside the egg seemed to be scratching the eggshell . . . . Shu Shu stopped eating and stared at the egg instead, fixing his attention on the egg.

The child's movement was getting bigger and bigger, and the crack was also getting bigger and bigger. Suddenly, a very small hole appeared in the eggshell.

"The child’s coming out!" Shu Shu stared at the egg excitedly. He had already prepared himself for seeing a snake head drill out of the small hole. But he did not expect that after the small hole became bigger, what extended from the inside was actually a small white paw.

Paw? So . . . it was not a sub-beastman but a beastman again? Seeing this scene, Shu Shu and Edgar were terribly disappointed but also a little curious—Edgar and the little snake were both black, and their paws were also black. Why was it a white paw that stretched out this time? Was the child genetically mutated? Some doubt appeared in Shu Shu's heart, and at that moment, that paw thrust out again . . . .

This . . . seemed to look different from Edgar's paws?

How could this be? Why would this child not look like his father, ah?

Shu Shu frowned, a bit puzzled. Edgar, however, was pleasantly surprised and stated, "Shu Shu, this child is like you!"

"Like me?" Shu Shu was startled and only then realized that the paw looked like a hamster paw.

There was a sudden surge of joy in his heart, and for a moment, he wished he could pry open the egg and take a look at the child inside. Of course, he still curbed his impulse in the end—helping the child to open the eggshell was disadvantageous to the child; he certainly shouldn’t do such a thing.

He actually gave birth to a little hamster this time! A hamster, ah! Watching the little paw that was struggling with the eggshell, Shu Shu felt his heart melt.

This was his little baby and also the cutest little baby in this world . . . . Really, why were these beast people all oviparous? Their hamster family was always viviparous. As a matter of fact, wasn’t making the little hamster crawl out of the eggshell the same as tormenting him?

Shu Shu felt very sorry for his own child. Just now, the hole in the eggshell got a little bigger, and at the same time, a tiny mouth that belonged to a hamster poked out of the hole, and a pink little nose sniffed in, apparently breathing outside air.

"It's a little hamster! It’s really a little hamster!" Shu Shu was extremely happy.

Edgar was also very happy. He was very fond of little hamsters now. However . . . when this child was born, it was in a hamster form. So, he was a hamster beastman?

A hamster beastman, ah . . . . Edgar glanced at Shu Shu, somewhat worried.

In fact, Shu Shu really wanted to say that he was still very strong, but he was a hamster, and his courage was too small, so this strength would often not come to light. If his child was a hamster beastman . . . .

Edgar tried to imagine Shu Shu doing his many antics in a tall and sturdy beastman body. After turning it over in his mind, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up. He did not get into a tangle when he knew that Shu Shu was a beastman, but he was somewhat thrown off balance over the possibility that he might have a beastman son who was not like a beastman.

Anyway . . . Shu Shu's situation was very special, so maybe his child would also be very special?

Edgar felt it was too early to start getting into a tangle, and his gaze soon fell on the egg again.

The paw sticking out of the eggshell was very small. Obviously, the child inside the eggshell was also very small . . . . Thinking that he would have a tiny hamster child who could be held in the palm of his hand, Edgar felt his heart melt and looked forward to the child even more.

And at this time, the hole in the eggshell was a little bigger, and then a tiny hamster head poked out from the hole completely. There was no hair on his head, making people can see the pink skin, which totally gave the impression that you should not touch it rashly . . . .
