In fact, they had already become adults.

  When other male beasts could transform into half-beasts, they would already leave their parents and lead an independent life, but he had lived under his parents’ protection for three to four years.

  It was not because he was not capable, but just like a kite, because it has a string holding to it, it knows that it has somewhere to return to after wind stops, allowing it to fly fearlessly in the sky.

  But suddenly the string broke and he became lost……

  If he had known this, he would not have ambitions to become a hero. He should have been around Gu Mengmeng the whole time, it was fine even if others teased him for being useless, he should have treasured the time he had to spend with his mother……

  But now, it was all too late for her to regret the past.

  Kanwu’s head remained low and he did not say anything. Victor wanted to approach Gu Mengmeng and try another time, but he was stopped by Auretin.

  Hmm……

  The reason was simple. Lea said to Auretin, “Our family just needs one tiger.”


  This meant that if Gu Mengmeng took Victor in, then Auretin’s food supply might be threatened!

  Trying to snatch the food supply of a glutton, you are really…… courageous.

  While Auretin and Victor were ‘having a deep discussion’, Elvis had already carried Gu Mengmeng back to the cave they previously stayed in.

  After placing Gu Mengmeng down at the cave entrance, Gu Mengmeng walked in, with one hand holding Elvis on the left and the other holding Lea on the right.

  All these seemed to still have the look she was the most familiar with. When she just arrived here, she was practically a blind person and could only move around the area near the cave entrance. If she walked in deeper, she would not be able to see anything.

  On the right side of the cave entrance was the closet that Elvis had dug for her after she came, because she said that it was wasteful to throw away the straw clothes that she only wore once. As such, everything inside was her old clothes, made of different materials, with different designs, all arranged neatly, just like someone had taken care of it meticulously.

  Because of what had happened to Cole, Gu Mengmeng had not returned to Saint Nazaire for two years, then who was it who had been taking care of this cave?

  Gu Mengmeng looked back and saw Barete, who was standing at the cave entrance.

  Barete smiled with his brows, frowning, “Aren’t I the Great Messenger’s guard? When the messenger is not around, I have to take good care of her things.”


  Gu Mengmeng returned an apologetic look and smiled gently, “Barete, all these years…… it has been hard on you.”


  “It’s my job, after all…… I owe you.” Barete’s eyes were filled with depression. It had an indescribable pain and also enjoyment.

  Gu Mengmeng shook her head and said, “No, Barete, you don’t owe me anything. What happened to Oakley was Cole’s scheme, it has nothing to do with you, you don’t have to blame yourself for it, neither do you have to repay any debt because of it.”


  Barete lowered his head and avoided her eyes. His lips formed a line as he could not say that sentence, ‘I just need a reason to guard you.’


  Gu Mengmeng patted his shoulders and said, “I am leaving and you should forget about it…… Among the 16 valued females in Saint Nazaire, there is the most beautiful female beast of the tribe, you……”


  “I have someone I like.” Barete still did not look at Gu Mengmeng and continued to stare at the ground.

  Gu Mengmeng was taken aback and immediately smiled, “That’s great. I have previously said that once you have someone you like, I will return your life to you. Now you are free, you can just go woo the person you like. With me the Messenger of the Beast Deity supporting you, you will definitely succeed!”
