240 Wakuka
“Yali, Yilai~
The flames at the bottom of the pot are quietly ignited
Gurgling hot air
Cache
Dilissi's Points
Vakukka's Glitter
The leaves under the moon are singing
The beetle in the soil is lame
…”
The melody Enid hummed quickly evoked Daren's memories, and she seemed to have returned to the peaceful and simple village. When she went home, she saw the little girl wearing a white turban cooking strange soup on tiptoes. Her mother Diana sat on the lounge chair with a smile, looking at the ceiling, and groping in her hands to sew clothes for herself.
Enid obviously recalled the white-haired woman who was very nice to her, her eyes quickly turned red and her singing choked.
"It's okay, it's okay, don't cry." Daren was awakened by her sob, and then came to his senses. He quickly put Enid's little head on his shoulder, patted her back and comforted him, "It's all over... She didn't suffer, she left peacefully, don't cry, Mother must also hope you are happy in heaven..."
Unexpectedly, Enid cried even louder.
It was so heartbreaking that it seemed that all the grievances, fears, guilt, and pain of the past few months turned into tears. Soon half of Daren's sleeves were wet! The crying made the one who heard the person was sad and saw the person who saw it.
Then I fell asleep somehow...
Not only Enid, but soon Deren also leaned on the back of the chair and began to have heavy eyelids. The two little guys had suffered a lot during this period. At this moment, they relaxed and fell asleep while sitting!
Daren didn't wake up until midnight after a sniff.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Enid's bright black eyes looking at him, with her hands on the table, and she put her chin on her face. It turned out that she had woken up at some point. Squirrel Kuka was also sitting on the table, closing her eyes and snoring, holding a big crystal ball in her arms, her whole face was pressed against it, with a humanized and satisfying expression on her face, and a crystal saliva dripping from the corner of her mouth...
Wait...Crystal ball?
"Are you awake?" Enid saw Deren wake up, her eyes bent into crescents in the dim room. "Look at you being too tired, I didn't dare to wake you up... I'd better go to bed."
"Will this be..." Daren didn't move and stared at the crystal ball on the table.
"Yes, it's the one in your belly." The little girl had no choice but to nod, "Murphy taught me a lot of things, and when you were asleep, I made it out."
"It's done? How did you do it?" Daren was startled!
Enid covered her mouth and laughed: "It's not what you thought." As she said that, she snapped her fingers gently, and then the crystal ball in Kuka's arms disappeared suddenly and then appeared in the girl's palm!
Kuka, who had lost the support of the object in his arms, suddenly tilted his body and pounced on the table. He woke up and looked up blankly...
It soon discovered that the crystal ball was missing! It immediately got up, wiped its saliva, and looked around. When it saw the object in Enid's palm, the little guy ran to the bottom of her little hand eagerly, jumping hard, and reaching the crystal ball that was so close to it!
I don't know if it's stupid... I could get it by just jumping on the little girl and running a few steps along her arm, but it just stood on the table and even had the "television" of her hand. After a while, I found that it was not reachable, so I looked at Enid pitifully, showing a pleading look.
"You can actually control this crystal ball..." Deren swallowed, "Isn't this the evil wizard's thing?"
"Well, Murphy taught me a lot of things..." The girl put the crystal ball back into the squirrel's arms, and the latter hugged her with joy on her face.
"You said before, Kuka is not a squirrel, so what is it?" Daren remembered another incident.
"It is called 'Wakukka', an ancient magical animal that likes to eat all kinds of energy-containing things." Enid rubbed Kuka's head, "Remember the song I sing just now, 'Wakukka' refers to its tears! It is said that Vakukka almost never shed tears. It is born to be extremely happy and easy to satisfy."
"Kukkakuka!" The little squirrel nodded vigorously in his arms holding the crystal ball.
"But it really looks like a squirrel..." Deren stared at Kuka in surprise and looked around.
"Because it is still a toddler, as a metaphor for humans, he is only about three years old..." Enid compared his hand to an exaggerated round shape. "Adult Wakuka is very big, almost the size of a water rhino! Of course, among magical animals, such a body size is nothing. Wakuka is not a race that is good at fighting. It only likes to eat and find all kinds of energy-containing things to eat, so all his skills are related to searching and escaping. If you see Wakuka appearing in the wild, you can almost certainly be good things containing some high-quality energy nearby."
"For example, a crystal ball?" Daren suddenly looked at the little guy.
No wonder I took the initiative to follow me and even burrow my clothes all day long. I like to stay on my belly...
"Murphy was once the magician at the peak of sub-legacy. His pure magical power certainly belongs to the category of 'high-quality energy'." Enid nodded in affirmation.
"Okay." For some reason, Daren was a little disappointed. "Now that the crystal ball has been taken out, there is no reason for it to follow me, right?"
"That may not be possible. You can sign a contract with it."
"Contract? Is that kind of pet contract?" Daren remembered his war pet scroll.
"No, it's an equal contract." Enid shook his head, "Wakukaka is an ancient species after all. With his own pride, it is impossible to sign a master-servant contract that completely surrenders to humans. Any magical animal with noble blood can only sign an equal contract! The kind that either party can take the initiative to terminate."
"Equality contract is more like a friendship relationship. Its main purpose is to enable both parties to communicate spiritually, and to develop a strong sense of intimacy with each other from the bottom of their hearts, so that friendship is stronger."
"But any contract is exclusive, which is a limitation on the soul level. Once you sign a contract, you can no longer sign other contracts, even the master-servant contract. This means that if you sign a contract with Vakukka who has no combat ability, you will not be able to subdue other war pets in the future."
"Would you?" Enid looked at Deren.
"Yeah." Deren nodded without hesitation, "I like it very much."
"I also think this is a good choice. Although Vakukka is very weak in combat, he can find a lot of good things with it." Enid smiled pursed his lips, "Little guy, where are you?"
"Kuka!" The little squirrel glanced at Daren, raised his chin with some pride, but immediately saw Enid pretending to snap his fingers, shrank his neck, hugged his crystal ball tightly, and nodded pitifully.
