Chapter 140: Chapter 140. Tamed a Divine Beast...
Guided by the kids, Myne proceeded deeper and deeper into the forest.
Along the way, they encounter many monsters a lot compare to the outer area of the forest but the kid dealt with them easily. And maybe the kids thought that Myne might be tired from the fight with the catfish, they not only killed all monsters before Myne could even see them and steal their skills but they also brought their corpse over him holding it with their mouth.
Now they are spoiling me, recently I have already become lazier and lazier, and if I stay with those kids some more days I don't know if I will get the title of the pig by appraisal skill, Myne thought funnily while watching kids working hard with an innocent smile on their face.
Soon Myne while following kids come in front of a large cavern which made him dumbfounded.
"This is the place where the guy lives?" Myne ask confusedly, from his impression as a Divine Beast, Fenrir should live in a luxurious building like a temple or something built with unknown magical materials by legendary fairies, not in a cavern like a normal beast, otherwise, what is the point of having so much power, and being alive for centuries but still living like a normal beast?
"Yes, Of course otherwise why would we bring you here?"
"Do you expect something else?"
"Well, I did expect something grander but anyway, her life her choices," Myne mumbled low enough that kids can't hear his voice, as he didn't want to make them sad and walked into the cavern with a heavy heart filled with a little disappointment.
Inside the cavern are walls where like the ones from the Dungeoun of Strength extremely hard. The ceiling is filled with various types of colourful crystals which were producing all kinds of lights making it very bright. On the ground in the entire cavern there are soft but short grasses growing on it making it very comfortable and if someone sleeps on it feels the same as sleeping on a natural bed.
A variety of exotic flowers, which most of the Maine had never seen before, can be seen everywhere in the cavern producing a very nice fragrance in every corner, making it feel very fresh and enjoyable while breathing. Probably controlled by magic or something, the temperature within the cavern was neither too hot and too cold, nor it was humid like outside and kept at a comfortable temperature.
In the middle right corner, there is also a small pond with an unknown depth filled with crystal clear water which looks very extraordinary at first glance.
"You're living in quite a nice place, aren't you!" Myne said after seeing the natural beauty of the cavern, his previous thought about Fenrir's home being not grand enough have long ago thrown out of his mind.
Hearing Myne words, the youngest kid who was just run to the pond to drink water, nodded his head while saying "Comfortable, comfortable!", after which he rolled around the floor and started playing with his brothers, who clearly look unwilling.
Fenrir who seem to have arrived before them from her so-called persona business or maybe she had never left the house, looked at her children playing around and smiled happily with satisfaction on her face.
"Good work in protecting my children. How was it, do you enjoy playing hunting games with them?" Fenrir asked Myne while sitting beside the pond.
"Well, to tell the truth, it was indeed quite enjoyable, those kids are just too hard-working, for once I even feel like I am taking advantage of them," Myne said with a gentle smile while coming to Fenrir and looking in the pond, but he only saw crystal clear water and deep black depth of unknown length in the centre, only god knows how deep this pond is.
"They are indeed a little too innocent, I think it's time to start teaching them about life," Fenrir said while looking at her children playing around dotingly.
"By the way, I forget to ask you, why are coming to this forest? As far as I know, you Hume's always avoids coming here because monsters here are too powerful, right? Fenrir asked suddenly causing Myne completely off guard.
She remember to ask this now? Shouldn't she ask this before giving me her children's responsibility? She is too careless, I wonder how did she survive till now," Myne thought with a frown but still told Fenrir the entire story of why he come here.
"You Hume are really weird, even a sacred event like a wedding didn't leave it pure, and mix it with your plots and scams," Fenrir said disappointingly while shaking her head.
"Sigh, this is how it is, neither you nor I can do anything to change it, Hume are greedy creatures, and they are not going to change their way of thinking just because of some tradition, nothing can come in their way of making wealth and status," Myne said calmly he has long ago developed little resistance to this kind of emotional conversation, and now he becomes shameless enough that he doesn't feel anything about it.
"Mama, we were helpful, weren't we? We kill a lot of monsters and give them to Myne," The youngest kid said while jumping on Fenrir's big 5 meters tall body and trying to attract everyone's attention, probably wanting more praise.
"Yes, sweetie, you did a good job, but don't I tell you not to climb on me without washing yourself first?" Fenrir said helplessly and grab the youngest kid with her paws and place him on the ground.
Seeing that his Mother is not in the mood to play, the youngest kid comes to Myne, and like a monkey, tries to climb onto Myne's shoulder. But because there wasn't a foothold, so he climbed up from my back with all his might, and finally manage to reach the top of my head, and made a triumphant look.
Naturally, Myne's head is smaller than the kid, so he was quite unstable, but he's hanging on quite well.
Well, let's just leave him until he gets tired of it, Myne thought and shook his head for fun, but the kids firmly hold onto his head, and didn't fall off from there.
It seems like I still haven't appraised those kids yet, let's see if this little guy has anything extraordinary on him...

Huh? Huhhhh!!!
WHAT!!!
How did this happen? How did this kid get tame by me? What the f*ck is going on here? I clearly remember I never use tame skill after clearing the dungeon, then why the hell did this kid get tame by me for no reason? What should I do now?
If Fenrir find out about it she would eat me alive, no Mother wants that her precious child becomes someone else servant, let's alone a divine beast, Myne thought while sweating buckets and looked at Fenrir who was watching with a frown clearly found out that something is wrong with him.
"What happen Myne? You suddenly don't look well," Fenrir asked.
Hearing Fenrir question Myne who knows that he is f*cked up, thought for a while but in the end took a deep breath before deciding to tell everything to her, after all, he is clearly innocent so why does he need to lie to her and made things difficult for himself? It is better to tell her the truth rather than let her find it herself and think that he is plotting something against her children.
"Ahm, Fenrir, please don't be angry, but I think something bad has happened!?" Myne said nervously while taking the kids in his embrace from his head for safety in any case Fenrir become mad and decide to eat him, so he can use her child as a meat shield till he open a portal and run as far away from her as possible.
"Hm? What's wrong, Myne," Fenrir asked while standing up from the ground.
"I don't know why, but just know I appraise this kid, and it shows that for some unknown reason, he is Tamed by me," Last part Myne said in a very low voice while making a little distance from Fenrir out of nervousness.
"Tame... Enslavement? ...There's certainly such a skill. Myne, why did you use it on my child?" Fenrir asked with a heavy voice but still have a calm expression on her face which made Myne a little relief.
"No, not at all, I don't have such a skill, let's not talk about using it on your kids, you can ask them I never use any skill on them, Myne hurriedly said half truth mixed with a half lie while raising the little kid in his hands high in front of Fenrir for confirmation.
"Haha, I see, boy, come here for a while, I want to ask something," Out of Myne's expectations where he thought Fenrir would be very angry and would beat him first before asking anything of her children, suddenly she started giggling in the same way as Aisha do whenever she made with prank Myne and he doesn't understand it until she explains him and mocks him for his stupidity, clearly not a pleasant experience.
After which with a light smile Fenrir called out to the kid in Myne's arms again and walk a little farther from him and had a little private Mother and son talk.
For a while, the two Mother and son talked about something, and then the little kid once again returned to Myne. He clawed his way up Myne's back again, and climbed on top of his head as if to say that it was the best position.
"I tried talking to the child, but there doesn't seem to be any doubt that he's particularly attracted to something from you. Since he came to like you a lot after you saved him, he desired it himself and entered the Tame status with you.
In the first place, it's impossible to Tame us Divine Beasts through any kind of skills or abilities, so I didn't really understand the mechanism behind it since there isn't any precedent. Also sorry for making you so worried for nothing, you don't know but you look very cute when you are nervous," Fenrir said while giggling clearly her apologies was just a formality.
"Hooo, so it was just a false call, I was scared to death.
And I didn't expect that you like me so much little guy, although I am very happy knowing it, but you literally give me a heart attack, you are as naughty as your Mother, who is clearly very old for those kinds of things," Myne said gently ignoring Fenrir's frown while raising the kid who was on his head with both of his hands and brought him in front of his face.
"Haha, praise me more, praise me more, I like it," The little kid's innocent laughter echoed in everyone's head, making them sigh with helplessness...
