Sima You Yue laughed, saying,
Everyone here eats cooked food.
What’s cooked food?
Little Dream continued to ask.
In a little while they’ll show you how it’s made. When you have eaten it, you’ll know.
Sima You Yue said.
Alright.
Little Dream nodded her head happily. Her Master didn’t scold her, and even said that she would cook something for her to eat! Master is so good to her!
Let’s go have a bath.
She pulled Little Dream with her and walked out of the fence, saying,
Little Spirit, please prepare some wild chickens here. Prepare some other wild game as well.
More food?
Little Spirit appeared, staring at Little Dream. Yet as she said that, her eyes were not filled with any blame or anger. There was more than enough wild game in the spirit pavilion, and as time had passed there was more and more wild game, yet no one to consume it.
Ling Long sat on Little Spirit’s shoulder, saying,
Master treats Little Dream so kindly.
He’s kind to you too.
Little Spirit brought Ling Long along as she said that, and they both went to catch wild game.
Bei Gong, later, you guys can whip something up to eat too.
Sima You Yue said, as she brought Little Dream along with her, leaving behind a group of people who couldn’t believe what they were seeing.
I say, why is You Yue treating this Dream Beast so kindly?
Fatty Qu asked.
I think so too, and she’s not just normal-nice.
Wei Zi Qi said.
It’s a little different from normal.
Ouyang Fei agreed.
Cluck Cluck—-
Chirp Chirp—-
Honk—-
A pile of wild game suddenly appeared within the pen, making all sorts of noise.
This many…
Bei Gong Tang looked at the fur that had landed on her hair.
Let’s start, before You Yue comes and sees that we have not done anything.
Wei Zi Qi and the rest held back their laughter and nodded, getting to work.
I’m curious, why is You Yue so gentle towards Little Dream…
Sima You Yue had brought Little Dream to her own bathing room, the pool already filled with water.
Master, what is this for?
Little Dream looked at the pool, asking.
This is for bathing.
Sima You Yure said.
You were kept in there for so long, so you should have a bath and then we can go and eat delicious things!
Master, why do we have to bathe before we eat?
Little Dream asked.
Because now you have the physique of a human, so you have to live like one.
Sima You Yue carried her into the water. At the start, she was a little afraid of the water, and held onto Sima You Yue’s clothes tightly. However, as soon as she got accustomed to the water, she left Sima You Yue, and splashed into the water on her own. As she bathed, the blood on her body washed off. Sima You Yue relaxed by the side of the pool, and as she gazed at Little Dream’s innocent features, she looked at her dotingly.
While they were forming the contract, she had used the contract connection to look at the memories that were hidden deep in her mind, and those memories caused her to feel a great heartache.
Little Dream was the Dream Devil Clan’s most skilled person. She was born with a Devil Emperor’s power, and was much stronger than anyone else in her clan. Although the Dream Devil Clan wasn’t as ferocious as the rest of of the Devil Clan, but they still carried the characteristics of the devil clan, and were unkind people. However, Little Dream was far from unkind. Before she was being suppressed, she had not done a single evil thing in her life, but lived happily within her clan.
However, a life like this was not to go on for very long. Three years ago, another Dream Devil Clan had brought people to destroy her clan, and had killed everyone in her clan.
What Little Dream could remember of that terrible, great battle was not much, yet she could remember how the clan members had protected her, and how they had abused her when she had been taken away, she had remembered extremely clearly.
They said that there was something within her body, and had caught her in order that they might retrieve it. It seems like the thing that they were referring to was located inside her heart, and they would have to pierce through her heart to get to it. But the moment they had tried to cause any hurt to her heart, their own attacks would rebound on them. And after they had tried for many years, they realised that as long as her heart was alive, she would also be kept alive, and would be able to recover from any attack, no matter how slowly.
She was an indestructible Devil Beast! Because she was born with a Devil Emperor’s powers and was indestructible, there was no way they could simply let her go. As such, they could only suppress her, so that she could never see the daylight.
To be safe, they had even chosen to bring her all the way to Yi Lin Continent, and kept her away at Forgotten Worry Island. Before they had suppressed her, they erased all her memories, so that she would not be able to recall all the things that she had gone through. They had even sealed her up before they suppressed her.
All this time, Little Dream was living in a daze, not knowing where she was, or what she had gone through. She could not even remember who she was. And she could only remain in such a state for the rest of time.
They had thought that they would be able to suppress Little Dream forever, but they never thought that Sima You Yue would be drawn to this place, breaking through their spell and even retrieving her memories when the contract was formed between them.
Little Dream hadn’t even known how long she had been kept at that place.
A few years ago she had swallowed every living creature on the island. It was done outside of her control, even though her body had been sealed away. Because… She was hungry.
Master, having a soak is so relaxing!
Little Dream had not really remembered everything that she had gone through, and swam around happily.
Then soak a little longer!
Sima You Yue stroked her head, saying.
But…
Little Dream looked at Sima You Yue coyly.
What’s wrong?
Sima You Yue asked.
Soaking is very comfortable, but… I’m hungry…
Little Dream lowered her head and said quietly. Sima You Yue smiled a little. She had only just eaten a whole flock of pheasants, but was hungry again.
Then let’s go and eat.
She stood up and changed into a fresh set of clothes. She looked through her own clothes and found that she had none suitable for children. So she took some of Little Tu’s clothes and gave it to Little Dream to wear. Although she looked a little strange, but they would have to make do. When they went out again, she would prepare clothes for Little Dream. Nonetheless, Little Dream smiled happily at the ill-fitting clothes. Her Master was so kind to her!
Sima You Yue brought her to the dining hall, and before they had entered the room, they smelled a pleasant aroma.
It smells so good, Master!
Little Dream said, holding on to Sima You Yue’s hands as they stood outside.
Let’s go in and see what they have made!
Alright!
In the dining hall, hundreds of wild game had been well-roasted, filling the entire dining hall. Upon seeing them come in, Fatty Qu wiped away his sweat, saying,
I never thought that a day would come where I would be making food for someone.
Master, are these all for me?
Little Dream asked.
Yes. Go eat!
Sima You Yue brought her to the side of the table, grabbed a roasted chicken, and started eating.
Little Dream felt that the roasted meat was not as tasty as raw meat, and furrowed her brows at the first taste. But she thought about what Sima You Yue had said about her having a human body, and having to behave like one, she simply continued to eat. After she had eaten a whole chicken, she started to enjoy the taste of these strange tasting foods, and concluded that cooked meat wasn’t as bad as she thought, and so she began to enjoy her meal.
Quickly, all the food that Bei Gong Tang and the rest had made had all entered Little Dream’s stomach.
