Chapter 1:
After saying my goodbyes to Dal’ar the next thing I remember is I woke up unable to move or open my eyes and all I could feel was discomfort around me, although I quickly fell asleep again so I had no idea what it was. The next thing after that that I remember is opening my eyes and seeing a beautiful white fox beastwoman and fearsome but handsome black fox beastman. The woman reached down to pick me up and cuddle and feed me so I assume these to be my parents. After feeding on some delicious milk I was really tired and quickly fell asleep again. This routine of waking up, feeding and sleeping again continued for quite some time before I eventually stopped falling asleep straight after my meals.
Now that I had a chance to look around free from distractions I noticed that we were living in a house to my surprise. I honestly expected a cave or the forest, not that I’m complaining. Over time I was slowly adapting to the language in this world, it’s different from my first world so I have only managed to grasp a few words. I did learn that my name is Pheul, my mother is Liase and my father is Breul, but I will just call them mum and dad, it’s better for both of us. Occasionally when mum or dad takes me with the around the house I get the chance to see the house we live in.
It seems to be a well off family, from what I’ve observed so far there are 3 floors above ground with each floor being significantly large, basically I live in a mansion. This shouldn’t really surprise me though, Dal’ar did say she would send me into a family with a decent bloodline ability and one would expect a strong bloodline ability to bring in some profit. Apart from my family living here there are also an assortment of maids, including bunny beastgirls, cow beastgirls and humans are the ones I’ve seen. Although because my parents have been personally taking care of me I don’t know any of them too well.
The rooms I have seen so far are by floor, the first floor has all the maids’ rooms as well as the kitchens, general washrooms and other necessary rooms for daily living and cleanliness, and some entertainment rooms. The second floor has my parents room, which I currently am living in with them, other empty rooms which I assume will be for family members, my room for when I am allowed to be by myself, and smaller kitchen and amenities in case they are needed, as well as a trophy room so to say, entertainment rooms and private washrooms. The third floor is divided into two, one part taking up 2/3 of the room and the other the remaining 1/3. The 2/3 part is a huge library that contains thousands of books, although I don’t know what they’re about, still haven’t tried reading the language. The remaining room I don’t know what it is, I only went in once when mum grabbed something from it, but I could see what appeared to be magic circles and inscriptions all around the room.
I’m not sure how long has passed but I was taken outside today and mum let me crawl around and dig in the dirt. With my little claws it was easier than I thought it would be and I managed quite a hole for someone that isn’t that old. When I lost interest I started chasing mum around and grabbing her tails, mum has six tails and dad has five, I’m not sure if that is strong or not but I assume its decent. Anyway, I say chasing mum but it’s really her letting me as crawling me and crawling her is quite a difference in speed. This routine of me playing outside continued daily with me being accompanied by either mum, dad or both.

Today is my first birthday and there is a celebration planned for the night, the house was largely decorated and there were a bunch of people I've never seen before that started showing up since morning. I've already long learned to understand the spoken language just from hearing the conversations between others and many places names from the adventure stories mum and dad read to me; however I am still at the basic speaking stage. Since I am sat on their laps when its story time I have also managed to grasp the written beastman language, which I attribute to the upgrades I added in learning Speed/Capacity.
As night came and the party began I was introduced to each of the guests, the majority were relatives or family friends but there was a group I did recognise. They were the people I have seen in a painting in the house, the painting was of my parents adventuring group when they used to travel and explore quite some years back. Although most of the group was well aged and in their late years and some were missing, there were also a couple of others like my parents where time has seemed to stand still for them.
The night celebration continued on and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves either catching up or partying, then it was time for the gifts. For the beastman race it seems that the tradition is to celebrate all the birthdays until the child is 12 and that’s the last birthday they will ever celebrate. Also each person gives the child a piece of food that is supposed to help in the child’s growth, a tradition I quite enjoyed as I managed to get an assortment of meats I've never tasted before. As I'm still young I got tired rather early so I was sent to bed as the party continued for who knows how long.
The next day when I woke up I found that id been put to sleep in my own room for the first time and I also had a cute bunny beastgirl maid assigned to me. I had her open my door for me than I slowly made my way to the library; I figured I’d try reading some books. When I arrived I let my maid know that I planned to stay a while, which sounded cute to her apparently because my basic language speaking skills. With that I headed to a random shelf and my maid went off for a bit. When I was almost finished my third book my maid returned with some breakfast for me, so I finished reading than dug in. I found out that her name was Aisha and her parents have been working at my house since before she was born, so she was born here and started working when she could handle some tasks.
With breakfast done I returned to my reading while Aisha started some tailoring, from time to time I’d ask her to grab a book I couldn’t reach but I mostly went for the bottom shelves. I read until it was time for lunch when I went and joined mum and dad to eat. We then went outside to play for a while where I started running and actually chasing my parents, digging holes throughout the property and jumping around. I continued this routine for about 2 months, and then the thing I had been waiting for had finally happened.
