Seven Cubs, Seven Fathers, Zero Days Off

Chapter 80: Chapter 80: Er Bao Wants to Transform

Such incredible cooking techniques... I doubt even the most skilled Advanced Chef in the Royal City could manage this, could they?

Besides, he’d never seen the seasonings and dipping sauces she was using.

And this aroma... He’d never smelled anything like it. It was simply astonishing!

Ye Lüqi and Lan Cangyue were the same. They were mesmerized by the aroma, their eyes glued to the roasted pig.

They had never seen a wild boar prepared like this before.

To think that a single wild boar, cooked by Shen Yue, could release such a fragrant aroma!

’I wonder how good it must taste?’

Nearby, Mu Silin’s mouth was watering uncontrollably. He had been here for so long, watching Shen Yue cook different dishes every single day.

God only knew how badly he wanted to try Shen Yue’s food.

’I really want to taste it for myself.’

’I need to know what it tastes like!’

So, as Shen Yue prepared to move the whole roasted pig onto the stone table, Mu Silin moved faster than a rabbit.

"I’ll get it! Let me help you!"

He snatched the whole roasted pig right off the spit.

Shen Yue: "..."

Mu Silin eagerly placed the roasted pig on the cubs’ stone table.

Then he turned and stood off to the side.

When Shen Yue walked over, she didn’t look too closely.

In reality, a piece of meat was now missing from the pig’s foot.

The little cubs were ecstatic as they gazed at the whole roasted pig on the table.

"Wow, Female Mother! Er Bao smells something yummy! I really wanna eat!"

"It’s a golden-yellow piggy! Female Mother is so amazing!"

Shen Yue picked up a knife and began carving it for them.

"Here you go. It’s a little hot, so blow on it!"

The four cubs who could already transform eagerly grabbed their chopsticks, blew on the meat a couple of times, and stuffed it into their mouths.

As soon as they took a bite, glistening grease dribbled from the corners of their mouths.

"Wow, this is so yummy!"

"The meat is so fragrant and crispy!"

A doting smile graced Shen Yue’s lips.

"Eat slowly, there’s no rush. If you like it, Female Mother will roast one for you often!"

The five grown men watching from the side looked so envious they were practically licking their lips.

’Is it really that good?’

Mu Silin clutched the piece of meat in his hand. ’Later,’ he thought, ’after these guys leave, I’ll definitely give this a proper taste.’

Just then, Er Bao, Si Bao, and Liu Bao, who couldn’t transform, were swallowing hard with anticipation.

"Female Mother, Er Bao wants to eat! Er Bao wants to eat," he cried.

"Si Bao, too!"

Shen Yue said, "Alright, alright, don’t worry! Female Mother will feed you right now!"

Shen Yue portioned out corn and sweet potatoes onto their bamboo plates, ladled out some fish soup and fried eggs, and prepared to feed them.

But then...

POOF!

Right before Shen Yue’s eyes, Liu Bao instantly transformed into a silver-haired toddler.

His dark cyan eyes shone brightly, and the pointed ears beneath his hair twitched. With a face as if carved from jade and skin as fair and flawless as a doll’s...

He looked just like a snow lotus sprite from Tianshan Mountain.

Shen Yue immediately shrieked with excitement.

"Wow! Our Liu Bao can transform!"

With his little bottom bare, Liu Bao was swept into Shen Yue’s arms. She gave him a couple of big, affectionate sniffs.

"My Liu Bao, how can you be so cute? So handsome!"

Nearby, Bai Chaosi and his subordinates in the shadows were so excited they looked ready to jump for joy.

’Heavens!’

’Our Young Master transformed!’

’He’s so beautiful and adorable, a perfect inheritance of our Young Master’s unparalleled good looks!’

A rare look of excitement appeared on Bai Chaosi’s gentle, refined face.

He was overjoyed to witness his own son’s transformation.

Seeing Liu Bao held in Shen Yue’s arms filled his heart with warmth.

An unconscious smile touched his lips.

Mu Silin stood nearby, glancing at his own son, Er Bao.

For a moment, he felt a sense of defeat.

’This cub of mine was the second to hatch. As the second-eldest brother, why is he still unable to transform?’

At this thought, he couldn’t help but glance at the Little Blood Wolf beside him, who also hadn’t transformed. ’Thankfully, Si Bao still can’t transform either. Otherwise, I’d completely lose face as a leopard!’

Just as he was thinking this... POOF!

Right before his eyes, Si Bao transformed into a toddler with red hair and perky ears.

Shen Yue’s eyes widened in amazement.

She stared at Si Bao, who now had a head of curly red hair, little pointed fangs, fuzzy ears, and a pair of blinking, dark gold eyes.

His little face had a naturally arrogant air, like a wild, untamable little prince from a noble house.

He was both handsome and adorable!

Shen Yue was beside herself with excitement.

"Ah! Si Bao! My Si Bao transformed too!"

She scooped one up in each arm, hugging both little ones tightly. Unable to put them down, she peppered them with kisses.

"My Si Bao and Liu Bao have both transformed! Female Mother is so happy."

"You’re so amazing! So wonderful!"

The two little ones closed their eyes in bliss as they snuggled in her arms.

"Si Bao is happy too! Si Bao finally transformed! Female Mother doesn’t have to feed Si Bao his foodies anymore!"

"Liu Bao can eat by himself now, too!"

On the ground, Little Qi clapped his hands excitedly.

"Wow! Fourth Brother and Sixth Brother are amazing!"

"Yay! From now on, Si Bao and Liu Bao can eat with their handsies like us!"

"Si Bao and Liu Bao are the best!"

The cubs all clapped and cheered happily for Si Bao and Liu Bao.

But just then...

Er Bao’s ears drooped. He held his breath, trying to transform as well.

But after trying for a long time, he still couldn’t do it.

Looking at Si Bao and Liu Bao in Shen Yue’s arms, he burst into tears with a loud WAH!

"WAAAH! I wanna transform too! Why? Why can’t Er Bao transform? Er Bao wants to become a person, too!"

"Why am I the only one left who can’t transform?! I wanna transform!"

Standing nearby, Mu Silin felt a bit embarrassed, but at the same time, his heart ached for his son.

Out of the seven cubs, only Er Bao was now unable to transform.

Even the cubs who had hatched last could control their spiritual power and take human form, so why couldn’t Er Bao?

’Where did things go wrong?’

He asked himself, with his powerful bloodline and spiritual power, how could a son of his, Mu Silin’s, possibly be weaker than him?

’So why can’t Er Bao transform?’

The subordinate in the shadows also watched Er Bao with a heavy heart. Before, they could excuse their Little General’s inability to transform by saying he had just hatched.

But now that even the youngest cubs were transforming one by one, their Little General still showed no signs of changing.

Seeing the Little General crying so hard, his heart ached for him!

After all, he had personally witnessed the Little General’s hatching. It was he and the General who had carried him out of the cave together.

Seeing how upset and sad Er Bao was, Shen Yue quickly knelt to comfort him.

"Er Bao, don’t be sad. We’re in no rush, okay?"

Er Bao sniffled.

"I wanna transform."

Tears streamed down his face in large drops. He was clearly very upset about this.

"I’m the second-oldest brother, but I’m the last one to transform! I’m so sad!"

"All my little brothers have transformed, but I can’t. It feels awful!"

Shen Yue wasn’t too concerned when she heard this.

It was true that Er Bao was the only one of the seven cubs who couldn’t transform yet. But that was only because her other cubs had such extraordinary genes that some could transform right after hatching. This just made Er Bao’s development seem a little slow by comparison.

For an ordinary member of the Beast Clan, it was common to be unable to transform for several years after hatching.

So, she figured it just wasn’t Er Bao’s time yet.

Her heart ached for him. She pulled him into a hug, knowing his confidence had taken a blow.

"There, there, Er Bao. Don’t be sad. Let Female Mother tell you something. Every baby has their own strengths and weaknesses."

"Some babies learn to walk first, and some learn to talk first. Some transform soon after hatching, and that’s all very normal. It’s not that you can’t transform, it’s just that it isn’t your time yet. But that doesn’t change the fact that you are a perfectly normal, healthy, and wonderful baby!"

"Besides, Female Mother wants to keep feeding our cute little Er Bao for a while longer. Don’t you want Female Mother to hold you and feed you your foodies?"

Shen Yue used the most loving and gentle tone, carefully soothing Er Bao’s fragile heart.

She did her best to prevent the child from developing feelings of inferiority or a lack of self-confidence.
