Chapter 132 – Young Frost Wyrm Pt. 2

“What?” Hearing Eldest Sister’s words, Suo Jia could not help but furrow his eyebrows as he looked at Eldest Sister in confusion.

Quite a while ago, the little Frost Wyrm had left Suo Jia’s side. It was probably because it had been scared off by Suo Jia’s oppressive behavior. It had hidden at the academy and did not want to return. How great was it over there; if it was not sleeping in the girls’ embrace everyday, then it would be receiving the moisturizing rain, oh how comfortable that was. At Suo Jia’s side however, that was not the case, as it was treated horribly every day.

That’s why for a year or so, the little Frost Wyrm hadn’t returned to the White Villa at all. It had followed Xue Er everyday; that is to say, it had been at Aimi’s side for more than a year. Normally, it would’ve slept to raise its spirit, and then afterwards, it would have received the moisturizing rain three times from morning, afternoon, and night times. The little pet had passed its days comfortably!

Now that he suddenly heard that something had happened to the little Frost Wyrm, Suo Jia couldn’t help but worry. Without saying a second word, he quickly sped to Holy Light Academy, completely disregarding the darkening sky.

Soon afterwards, Suo Jia arrived at Holy Light Academy. Just as he passed through the gate of the training field, Suo Jia saw over a hundred girls encircled together with a worried expression and seemingly looking at something.

A few girls with sharp eyes noticed Suo Jia, and they began to get out of the way one after another. They allowed Suo Jia to enter the inner circle, soon after…Suo Jia finally saw the Frost Wyrm.

At this moment, the Frost Wyrm had both of its eyes closed and was lying on its side over there. Its body was trembling, and its little body was emitting waves of frigid aura constantly. From the looks of it, the little pet appeared to be suffering!

Furrowing his eyebrows anxiously, Suo Jia asked, “Can someone explain to me what’s going on here? How did it become like this?”

Hearing Suo Jia’s inquiry, Aimi took the lead and began to speak, “We also have no idea. This evening, everyone had worked together to perform the Hydration Technique, but the little pet suddenly started convulsing. It was perfectly fine before, why did it end up like this?”

Hearing Aimi’s anxious and worried voice, Suo Jia could not help but frown. While pondering over this matter, a faintly discernible sound came from the little pet, and a thin layer of ice began to form over its body!

Seeing this scene, Suo Jia couldn’t help but be overwhelmed with shock. There was only one explanation for the current circumstances: After three or so years, this little pet had unexpectedly ended its newborn state, prematurely entering its adolescent state!

Originally, according to how things usually turned out, a Frost Wyrm needed ten years worth of time before it could shed its baby form and mature into its adolescent form. However now, it had clearly only been 3 and a half years, how was it able to enter its adolescent stage so fast?

The difference between the newborn form and the adolescent form was quite huge…The newborn form of the Frost Wyrm did not possess any strength, and was inferior to even a bat. However, once it entered the adolescent phase, its body would begin to grow bigger. In addition, it also gained the ability to control frost, and the adolescent Great Frost Wyrm was comparable to that of a middle-rank beast!

In order to check if his suspicions were correct, Suo Jia concentrated his attention on the Frost Wyrm. Under Suo Jia’s gaze, the thin layer of ice on its body grew thicker and thicker. In only a moment, the little pet’s body was thoroughly encased in a football-sized ice sphere.

“Hu……” Suo Jia slightly let out a breath as he loosened his shoulders, he was pleasantly surprised. This little pet had actually entered its adolescent form 7 years in advance. Could it be the effect of the Moisture Technique? In these past 3 years, the number of Moisture Techniques this little pet had received couldn’t be counted anymore, perhaps it had already reached the point of countless millions!

“Hold on!” While he was pondering, Suo Jia’s eyes suddenly lit up. Don’t tell me that the Frost Wyrm could break through the adolescent stage if it continuously received ten millions of Moisture Technique? If that was really true!

While thinking, Suo Jia couldn’t help but come to a conclusion. He easily loaded the Frost Wyrm into his interspatial ring, then he turned his head around, and said to Aimi and Aila, “The two of you, come with me. As for the rest of you, please go back. The little Wyrm is fine, it will recover in a few days’ time.” After he finished speaking, Suo Jia took Aimi and Aila away from the training ground.

During the night, Suo Jia, Aimi and Aila assembled in the underwater training ground. After thinking for a long time, Suo Jia said to the two girls in a heavy tone, “I asked the both of you to come with me today because there is something I wanted to confirm.”

Hearing Suo Jia’s words, the two girls were looking at Suo Jia doubtfully as they exposed an inquisitive expression on their face. Seeing the innocent and lovely girls, Suo Jia said in a deep and low voice, “I want to know if both of you are willing to become my partners for a lifetime!”

“What! You?” Hearing Suo Jia’s words, the faces of the girls blushed red immediately. They were very bashful and could only respond evasively, they couldn’t even form a complete sentence properly.

After a while, Xue Er was the first to say, “That is impossible, I cannot promise you. You can only choose one among us. How can you woo two girls at the same time!”

“Wooing?” Hearing Xue Er’s words, Suo Jia couldn’t help but feel puzzled. However, Suo Jia quickly came to an understanding. He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as he looked at Aimi. This girl was truly mischievous, that thought had never crossed Suo Jia’s mind, not even a little bit.

Seeing Suo Jia’s expression, the intelligent Aila who remained cool-headed understood immediately. Lightly pulling Aimi, she approached the side of her ear and whispered, “What kind of silly act are you trying to pull, Suo Jia did not mean that kind of partner. He was referring to battle companion, the kind that work together in battle.”

“Oops!” Hearing Aila’s words, Aimi’s face turned pale and soon after, it turned deep red in a flash. She was so ashamed and unable to show her face. Just what was she thinking!

Seeing the bashful Aimi, Suo Jia understood for the first time the cuteness of a girl. He laughed bitterly and shook his head, he couldn’t help but exclaim gloomily. What Eldest Sister said was right, he really had to pay attention to the matter on this field. Being romantic was not wrong but it was a sin to be lecherous.

Girls usually mature faster than boys. When the girls had a first awakening of love, the boys were still playing with mud. When Suo Jia was still not aware of anything, Aimi had already known about a lot of things. In fact, as far as ‘play house’ was concerned, the girls were more devoted than the boys.

However, in regards to the present time, Suo Jia was not fond of girls. In fact, he had already seen the bodies of all the girls in his class. He had to see it every week and he didn’t think there’s anything good about their bodies.

Every Sunday evening, after an entire day of hard work, they must assemble in the underwater training ground to bathe in the Hydration Technique. Suo Jia also had to participate in the activity. Only the people who had bathed in the Hydration Technique know how comfortable it is.

The Hydration Technique was not the same thing as the Moisture Technique. The Moisture Technique was a water mist, while the Hydration Technique was a rain. This was why you couldn’t wear clothes, otherwise, the clothes would get soaked. Because of this, everyone completely stripped naked before enjoying themselves.

Ever since Suo Jia was eight, he had already been mixed with a large heap of women. Actually… it should actually be a large heap of girls. To Suo Jia, the only thing different about girls was that their hair was a bit longer and they were missing a bit down there. Other than that, their skin was a bit whiter, softer and glossier. Their voices were a bit more tapered, and in addition, they also liked to get angry at little things and throw tantrums; there wasn’t anything great about them.

It was perfectly alright to say that Suo Jia was incomparably familiar with all of the bodies of the girls in his class. He knew clearly where someone had a mole or a birthmark, and although he often played house with everyone, to this day, Suo Jia still did not understand why a male had to marry a woman and take her as his wife. He also did not think that playing together with girls was more fun.

While thinking, Suo Jia smiled while saying, “Pursuing you girls is a future matter, right now I am too young. To be honest, I want to train you girls and make you into the most powerful mages. However, you all should know that if this happens, a lot of money needs to be invested. That’s why I want to know what you girls think…”

Hearing Suo Jia’s words, Aimi and Aila glanced at each other with a bit of doubt before asking in confusion, “Does this even need to be asked? Our parents had already handed us over and told us to listen to you. Whatever you decide is best, and that is what we will do since we don’t know better anyway.”

Damn… Hearing the two girls’ words, Suo Jia could not help but slap his forehead. That’s right… these two girls were only 10 years old, how could they make decisions in regards to their futures. It was likely that even thinking about two things at once would make them confused. It seemed like…influencing them into action was an impossible task. He could only try and convince their parents.
