Beast Taming: Infinite Simulation as a Tamed Beast Chapter 158 – The Fairy Girl’s Playmate

Chapter 158: Chapter 157: The Fairy Girl’s Playmate

“The Dragon King is off attending to important matters, and he’ll be back once he’s done!”

The giant turtle hustled a few steps forward, flashing a wide grin. “I don’t care, I want my mom!”

The little girl pouted, ready to break into tears at any moment.

“Don’t cry, don’t cry. Look at what I’ve brought for you!”

Seeing the girl on the verge of tears again, the giant turtle felt flustered. He waved his hand and pushed Vincent forward.

Upon seeing Vincent, the girls’ sobbing halted. Her striking blue eyes blinked constantly, her face a mask of curiosity.

“Old Turtle, what is this thing? A jellyfish?”

The girl poked Vincent, finding the sensation strange. Soft yet bouncy were concepts she had never encountered before.

The giant turtle sighed in relief, then began to weave a tale:

“Princess, this isn’t a jellyfish. This is a magical creature transformed from a Heavenly Crystal, of natural origin, endowed with Spiritual Wisdom, an absolute rarity!”

Confusion clouded Vincent’s mind: “Is he talking about me?”

After hearing this, the girl’s mood instantly brightened, and she erupted in laughter. Swiftly, she wrapped her arms around Vincent, nuzzling continuously.

The giant turtle’s grin broadened.

“My name is Avril, what’s your name, Mr. Big Crystal?”

Avril, barely taller than three feet, was almost the same height as Vincent.

To say she was hugging Vincent would be more appropriate to categorize as ‘sticking’ to him.

“My name… is Vincent.”

Vincent disclosed his real name, opting not to use an alias or Barry’s name.

“Vincent!” Avril was elated, showing no signs of her previous melancholy mood.

“Little Princess, are you satisfied with your new play partner?” The giant turtle asked cautiously.

“Satisfied.” Avril nodded her head vigorously before her face tensed up again, “Sort of satisfied, I still want my mom!”

“The Dragon King does have urgent matters to attend to, it’s not that he doesn’t wish to play with you. As you can see, to prevent you from being lonely, the Dragon King found you a playmate. Once you’re sick of playing, he’ll be back.” The giant turtle continued to smooth-talk Avril.

“Really?”

“Really really!”

“Alright then.” Avril reluctantly agreed, looking dispirited.

“Mav I take mv leave now?”

“Mhm, goodbye Grandpa Turtle.”

The giant turtle finally breathed a sigh of relief, as if a massive weight was lifted from his heart. Feeling rejuvenated and free, he swiftly bid farewell and ran off like the wind. Believing that Avril might come up with another issue.

Being held by Avril, Vincent dared not move a muscle.

He hadn’t gotten a grasp of this fairy girl’s temper yet, thus he didn’t want to provoke her.

If Avril turned out to be one of those kids who seemed like an angel on the outside but acted like a demon on the inside, his future would be bleak.

Images of children abusing cats, dogs, and other small animals from his past life flashed through Vincent’s mind, leaving him cold.

“With her high status, if she has any quirks, there is no way I can run.”

To his surprise, Avril released him after hugging him for a while, plopping herself down next to him.

“Vincent, do you think my mom is really busy or does she not like me anymore?”

With her hands supporting her chin and her eyebrows furrowed, Avril looked upset.

Caught off guard, Vincent gave it some thought before saying:

“There’s no mother who doesn’t love her child, she must have an urgent business to attend.”

“But mom has always been lazy, laying down at my side all day. What emergency could have taken her away for more than a month? I think she simply doesn’t like sleeping with me anymore and wants to sleep somewhere

Avril bluntly revealed her mother’s secret.

At a loss of words, Vincent was baffled.

He found it hard to believe that the Dragon King led such a leisurely life, though holding such a high position and possessing immense power, does nothing but sleep all day.

That’s enviable!

“You might only be seeing the surface. If the Dragon King was truly lazy and unambitious, how could she maintain her grand Dragon Palace?” Vincent started sharing his thoughts.

“But the Dragon Palace was passed down from my grandmother, and my grandma’s palace was passed to her by her mother.”

Avril blinked, clearly puzzled.

Enough said!

How frustrating!

Could they ever chat harmoniously?

“Vincent, why aren’t you speaking anymore?” Avril swung Vincent’s body left and right.

“Stop shaking me, how about I tell you a story?”

Avril’s strength was immense. With her shaking, Vincent felt as if he was about to be churned into butter. The squeezing sensation induced waves of pain. As a last resort, he proposed his big idea.

“Sure!”

Avril’s face lit up in excitement at the prospect of a story.

After pondering, Vincent asked,

“Have you heard about the story of the little tadpoles searching for their mother?”

And so, Vincent began to tell the tale.

“One day, they met a mother carp…”

“And then they met…”

“In the end, they found their real mother…”

“Wahh—!”

Listening to the story, Avril’s face took a turn towards sorrow, and when the little tadpoles found their mother, she burst into tears.

“Wah wah— The tadpoles found their mother, but I still haven’t!”

Vincent felt a chilling sensation all over his body, as if a terrifying force from the nearby palace had locked onto him, ready to engulf him in the next instant.

“Little princess, you misunderstood!”

In panic, Vincent quickly explained:

“It’s just a story, and it tells us that by relying on their persistence and determination, the tadpoles eventually found their mother. Similarly, if you’re able to wait a bit longer, the Dragon King will return to stay with you forever!”

Avril’s crying ceased abruptly.

“Vincent, are you telling me the truth?”

“Of course, I’m a creature transformed from a Heavenly Crystal, I can’t lie!” Vincent responded with a resolute tone.

“Alright then, I will trust you.”

When he heard Avril’s words, Vincent felt as if the terrifying force that engulfed him had disappeared, as if nothing had happened.

Only then did Vincent feel relieved, giving himself a bitter smile.

“Now I truly understand the phrase — ‘it’s perilous being a confidant of the king.’ Misunderstood by telling a simple story, I almost lost my life. What a handful!”

“No, I do not like this story, tell me another one.” Avril stared at Vincent, expectancy in her eyes.

“What kind of story do you wish to hear, little princess?”

After pondering, Avril responded:

“Tell me something fun, long, not childish. And it should be interesting, not simple ones.”

Vincent silently cursed at her complicated request. He racked his brain before finally speaking.

“Have you heard of Journey to the West?”
