Volume 2 Chapter 2: Stow away

Keith left the forest with Aria. He didn't need the help of the Samuis anymore to go to and from the herd.

For some reason, the beasts in the forest didn't want to go near him! And he didn't mind. It made it easy for Aria and him to enter and leave.

But from time to time,

"Howl!"

Keith quickly dodged while Aria fired icicles at the beast! Sometimes, monsters would try to attack him. But they were quickly dealt with by Aria.

With Aria there, there was no way he could get harmed. Keith and Aria continued to walk. But while they continued,

Roar! Keith turned his head back and frowned. What's going on? Is there a battle going on behind him?

He could hear something going on. Whatever the case, it seemed to be getting closer to them.

"Aria." Aria nodded as she was preparing for a fight. Keith raised his sword up. What came in their direction was a white blur. But he didn't have time to focus on the white blur because the giant bird behind him was more eye-catching!

It was trying to eat the white blur.

"Mir!" Keith didn't wait as he dashed forward. Before the bird could have a chance to swallow the baby, Keith kicked the bird's jaw, shutting its mouth.

"Kwak!" Aria then fired icicles again, killing the beast. Keith sighed in relief. But then he turned to Mir,

"Mir! What are you doing out here?!" He grabbed the little Samui and raised him up. He almost had a heart attack. How could he be away from the herd?!

"Where is Miyuki and the others?!" Keith questioned. There was no way Miyuki would let him be alone!

Stolen story; please report.

"Po! Po!" Mir gave out a cute cry.

Keith tilted his head, "You came here alone?! Why?!" He never expected Mir to do something like that.

Inti, yes.

But Mir? Not in a million years.

"Po!"

"You followed me?" Keith was surprised. He followed Keith's scent. While Mir followed him, the bird suddenly appeared, wanting to gobble him up.

"..." Keith didn't know what to say in this situation. Keith couldn't scold the baby. His body was dirty from fleeing that beast. And it was too scary.

Keith looked back. I can't go back, either. They were pretty far away from Shiro and the herd.

"Give me a second." Keith held onto the baby and focused.

Shiro!

Bo!

Mir is with me.

Bo Bo.

So you know. Keith looked up at the sky. Alright, I will be taking care of him for the day. Also, tell Miyuki that she doesn't need to worry.

Po!

"I guess you will be coming home with me, Mir." "Po!" When Keith said that, Mir let out a happy smile. Keith shook his head as a laugh came out his mouth.

He continued home. This time, he had a stowaway with him. Mir rode on Keith's shoulders. It didn't take long for the three to arrive in front of the estate.

The guards greeted him, "Welcome home, Young Ma-"

But they couldn't finish their greeting as they saw a white ball of fluff on his shoulders,

"...Yeah." Keith let out a laugh as he entered the estate. When he entered the mansion, May was the first person there. She had a warm towel for him.

Before she could say anything, May had the same stare as the guards as she glanced at Mir,

"Young Master, what's that on your shoulders?" May blinked a few times as she questioned. The white ball of fluff on his shoulders was too eye-catching.

"His name is Mir, and he's a stowaway," "Bo!" Mir let out a cry, trying to deny what Keith said. But Keith pointed at him,

"Ahem. You left Miyuki and the rest. You shouldn't have done that."

"Po. Po." Mir tried to be cute when he heard that.

"Don't try to act cute." Keith shook his head. He was pulling the Inti card.

Inti was becoming a bad influence on others!

May blinked a few times, "That's the baby Samui?"

"Mmmhmm."

"..." No one said a thing.

...

During dinner, William and the rest stared at Mir. The ball of fluff didn't mind as he lay on Keith's lap.

He was being cute in front of Keith.

"So he followed you home?" William knitted his brows when he heard that.

Keith nodded, "Mmhmm. He will only be staying here for a night."

"I see," William said nothing more.

"So this is a baby Samui." Sophia got close to Mir. She tilted her head, "I didn't think it would be so small as a baby."

"There's not much information about the adults either." There wasn't much knowledge about an adult Samui.

Let alone a baby.

"He's so cute, right?" Keith said with a smile as he stroked Mir's back. Mir let out a cute laugh.

But his words caused the others to make strange expressions.
