Chapter 129: Chapter 129: The Cutest Little Tutu.
Spiritual power!
Yu Zhizhi didn’t expect a notification from the system. She was so excited she nearly jumped to her feet.
Yusen saw the little female’s excited expression and couldn’t resist pinching her cheek.
"What’s the matter?"
Yu Zhizhi looked up at him, her eyes shining. "I think I can awaken my spiritual power today!"
"Is that so?" Yusen smiled faintly. "That’s wonderful."
Females were different from males.
Males would awaken both their spiritual power and Super Talent on the day they hatched. Females, however, could awaken at any time after reaching adulthood.
Although a female’s spiritual power wasn’t typically very high, being able to freely undergo Beastification was very convenient for them.
Yu Zhizhi asked curiously, "How do you switch to your Beast Form?"
Like how Yusen could switch between his fishtail and legs so freely.
Yusen had never really thought about this question. He replied softly, "You probably just have to think about it, and it will happen."
"Then—" Yu Zhizhi walked over to the sofa, sat bolt upright, and said with a tense expression, "I’ll give it a try, then."
But before that, she still needed to ask.
’Around what time will I awaken?’
[System: At dusk.]
Hmm... Yu Zhizhi glanced at the sun outside the window. It was still blazing.
’I guess I’ll wait a little longer.’
Luther, having returned from his patrol, came to the cabin for his routine check. He was afraid the merman might lose control and do something to harm the Rabbit Clan Lady.
When Yu Zhizhi saw him, she smiled faintly. "I was just about to look for you."
Luther took off his military cap, stood before the coffee table, and gave a slight bow.
"Ms. Zhi Zhi, please tell me."
"Can I have a ship?" Yu Zhizhi looked at him earnestly.
Luther paused, slightly stunned. "What kind of ship?"
Yu Zhizhi had looked up sailing information and had noted down a ship that was not large but very sturdy. "One like the Willie, suitable for long voyages."
Luther silently made a mental note.
"Of course, Ms. Zhi Zhi. I will arrange it for you."
As a distinguished guest of Paradise, Luther would arrange for anything the Rabbit Clan Lady wanted, no questions asked.
"I’ll also need food, water, medical supplies, and sailing tools."
Yu Zhizhi rattled off everything she could think of in one breath.
Luther nodded. "Alright, I’ve noted it down."
He noticed the Rabbit Clan Lady seemed exceptionally happy today and couldn’t help but ask, "Did something good happen?"
Yu Zhizhi didn’t hide it at all. "I can awaken my spiritual power today!"
’So that’s what it was.’
Luther smiled. "That’s wonderful. Congratulations, Ms. Zhi Zhi."
For a female, this was indeed an event worth celebrating.
Moreover, the Rabbit Clan Lady was an S-Class female who had yet to awaken her dual abilities. Once both her spiritual power and Super Talent awakened, she would be re-evaluated. It was highly likely she would be promoted to an SS Level female!
Just thinking about it was exciting.
He would actually get to witness the promotion of an S-Class female with his own eyes...
Luther bid Yu Zhizhi a temporary farewell.
He had to go prepare the supplies the Rabbit Clan Lady needed.
「By dusk.」
Yu Zhizhi eagerly began preparing to use her spiritual power.
She asked in her mind:
’So, has my spiritual power awakened?’
[System: Congratulations, Host. It has awakened.]
’How many points do I have?’
[System: Currently calculating. Please wait.]
[System: DING! Host’s current spiritual power is 200 points.]
Wow!
Yu Zhizhi happily hugged a sofa pillow. ’Two hundred points!’
On the Beast World Planet, females usually had between 10 to 50 points when they first awakened their spiritual power. But Yu Zhizhi had 200 points on her very first awakening!
With two hundred points of spiritual power, she could maintain her Beast Form for about three days.
For Yu Zhizhi, this was a completely new and fascinating experience!
Besides, there was one more thing—
Back when she lived at the Duke Mansion, she had received a letter from the [Divine Hall Alliance]. The envelope could only be opened by someone who had awakened their spiritual power.
Yu Zhizhi had kept this letter the whole time.
When she left the Duke Mansion, she had also packed it in her backpack.
She had awakened her spiritual power today, which meant she could finally read the letter!
The [Divine Hall Alliance] didn’t belong to any Empire. They were an independent entity and wielded many wondrous powers.
The Divine Hall’s encampment was near the Cang Mountain area.
It was separated from the Divine City by a vast ocean, and the journey would take over three months even by the fastest ship.
Yu Zhizhi decided to go back to her room and read the letter later.
For now, it was time to try out her Beast Form.
She silently chanted in her mind, "Beast... Beastification?"
She felt a sudden tremor run through her body. By the time she realized what had happened, she was sprawled on the carpet, staring blankly at the legs of the coffee table in front of her.
She looked down, saw her fluffy little paws, and gave a happy hop.
Her body had turned into a real rabbit.
She found a floor-length mirror and saw a little snow-white rabbit. Its upright ears swayed gently, and behind it was a fluffy, round little tail.
Its glossy black eyes were round and bright, and the corners were smudged with a trace of black, as if it were wearing exquisite eyeliner, making it look exceptionally cute and charming.
Yu Zhizhi moved closer.
She looked left, then right, completely satisfied with her Beast Form.
She had been on the Beast World Planet for so long, and now she could finally undergo Beastification freely. She couldn’t help but roll around on the carpet. Just as she was lying on her back with all four paws in the air, she heard the cabin door open.
Yu Zhizhi froze.
She lifted her little rabbit head and saw the figure who had entered.
Louis was back from the Lost Tower. He had taken care of some other matters on the way, so it was a bit late when he arrived at Zero Star Street. The last ray of sunset was gradually disappearing.
The winter nights were very cold.
As soon as the door opened, a gust of frosty air drifted in.
He saw the little white rabbit on the floor, and his steps faltered slightly, his expression indifferent.
’Where did this rabbit come from?’
A familiar scent permeated the air.
Upon seeing him, the little rabbit struggled to flip itself over. It kicked its legs a few times and finally landed on all fours, panting.
’That endearingly clumsy appearance... who else could it be but her?’
Once Louis realized the little rabbit’s identity, his gaze instantly softened.
He walked slowly to the edge of the carpet and crouched down. "Miss, you’ve awakened your spiritual power?"
Yu Zhizhi nodded happily.
Seeing the small, soft, snow-white rabbit, Louis felt his heart melt.
He sat cross-legged on the floor and couldn’t resist reaching out to stroke the little rabbit’s head.
Yu Zhizhi was startled by the sudden touch.
After her Beastification, she looked much smaller than an adult rabbit. She wasn’t sure if it was because she had just transformed, or if it was a matter of her breed.
This was the first time she’d been petted on the head by a human from this angle.
Er, no—
Petted on the head by a Beastman.
Yu Zhizhi froze for a moment, then couldn’t help but nuzzle her head against his cool palm. This small movement sent a tickle through Louis’s palm and a tingle that shot straight to his tailbone.
He had never liked rabbits before.
He disliked any warm, furry animals.
In the past, if he had encountered a white rabbit in its Beast Form, he probably would have captured it, dismembered it, skinned it alive, and eaten it raw.
But this little rabbit before him was the little female he adored.
No matter what her Beast Form looked like, Louis would always find her the most adorable.
’She was the most adorable little rabbit in the world.’
A sound came from the staircase.
Soon, Louis caught sight of the merman’s figure in his peripheral vision.
The young man bent down and scooped the little rabbit into his arms.
Yusen stared at Louis with a displeased expression, his deep, ice blue eyes filled with warning.
’This guy, Louis.’
’The aura that had flashed from him just a moment ago was full of filth and darkness, like a viscous swamp that devoured everything it could.’
