“Chirp!” Louis also saw what was at the bottom of the pit.

Meng Jiuzhao only heard that chirp before Louis quickly threw him onto his back. Louis ran back towards the tribe, swiftly as though his buttocks were on fire.

Of course, this behaviour wasn’t because he was afraid of the Utah Raptor’s retaliation for getting peed on.

Louis was going back to tell the adults about the food.

“Chirp~ Chirp~ Chirp chirp~~” Louis jumped back and forth on White’s head. Watching this violent wake-up call made Meng Jiuzhao feel his head hurt. In comparison, Louis was really gentle when waking him up.

Meng Jiuzhao, whose understanding of the Kantas language has gotten to a 6th grade level, could easily comprehend Louis.

Louis chirped here and there, expressing only 1 thought: There’s breakfast ahead! Claim it!

The sleepy-eyes Black was bothered awake, and with no choice, he followed Louis over blearily.

Black quickly noticed that he was brought to the spot where he cubs loved to pee, then he noticed the breakfast Louis talked about: an Utah Raptor.

Black hesitated for 10 seconds.

To him, who was obsessed with cleanliness, there was a dilemma. An Utah raptor covered in his cubs’ pee, to eat or not to eat? This was a very serious question–

But since Louis was jumping around nonstop, Black made a compromise and went back to their nest to get White to serve up their meal.

White, who was ordered by his partner to collect the food, didn’t have any qualms about it. Pinching his nose and dragging poor Wiesel out, he casually tied the poor raptor with a straw rope and threw him in the kitchen.

Seeing that the roasting rack was still behind the kitchen at the place Carat usually cooked, he even thoughtfully placed the large Utah Raptor on the pile of dry rattan used as firewood.

Then White took his cubs back to their nest to sleep.

ZZzzzzzz

Poor Wiesel, who smelled of urine, was tied up and left in the kitchen for a very long time.

Surrounding him was leftover bones, skin, flesh and remains. Even if Wiesel had never seen a kitchen in his entire life, he could still guess what this place was!

Transforming to his original form meant being eaten, while transforming to yesterday’s form meant having food to eat, his brain quickly comprehended this fact.

Thus, Wiesel tried to transform back to yesterday’s form, but even after half a day, other than tightening the knot of the rope that tied him up, he made no progress.

All his strength was exhausted, and in despair, Wiesel heard footsteps coming from outside…

I’m finished! I’m going to be eaten! I’m going to become the decoration in someone’s nest!

Wiesel’s stomach growled.

Just at that moment, without knowing what was the trigger, he felt a burst of fatigue, and a sharp shrinking sensation that brought him dizziness. He fell– face down.

Sita walked into the kitchen right at this moment.

As soon as she came in, she saw Wiesel lying naked next to the firewood.

“Yo? You got up so early! Are you here to help make food?” She came to the wrong conclusion.

T口T… Wiesel, who was there to “make food” [1], froze, before staggering up.

Then he really accompanied Sita in a daze to make breakfast.

The Vash tribe only ate 2 meals daily, breakfast and dinner. Breakfast was extremely important because they provided a day’s worth of energy for the hunters who went out. But since the one who prepared their meals was usually Carat, everyone didn’t hold much expectations for breakfast.

Just like usual, people slowly trickled in for breakfast.

“Oh! Today’s roast meat is so tasty!” Fendi’s eyes shone.

“This soup is also very fresh~” Xiao Ding had a surprised expression on her face after taking a mouthful of soup.

Although Andy said nothing, his actions showed his emotions– He scooped an additional bowl of soup.

When they learnt that today’ breakfast was made by someone else because Carat was busy hibernating, everyone had the same thought in their hearts: Carat, sleep for a couple more days!

Wiesel, who was hiding with a face full of unease, was introduced by Sita as the chef of today’s meal.

The unlucky man they saved from the trap yesterday turned out to be such a good cook!

What a good deal →Everyone gave a “like” in their hearts.

Everyone made a unanimous decision that on days Carat wasn’t around, the role of the tribe’s chef would be shouldered by this newcomer!

Everyone cheered~

“I don’t know what they’re so happy about… Didn’t you say that there was Utah Raptor meat this morning? Did they bring it out yet? Louis can’t wait to eat.” Using one hand to feed his bald cub, Black occasionally stuffed a piece of meat into Louis’ mouth.

They preferred eating with their family in a small circle rather than in the middle of a lively crowd, so even though it was very rowdy in front, Black didn’t know what was going on.

“There’s no Utah Raptor meat.” White honestly said. “They left the Utah Raptor in the kitchen (to work).”

“Are they treating it as reserve food?” Black reflexively thought this way. However, he didn’t have any intentions on eating an Utah Raptor that fell into his cubs’ latrine pit in the first place.

Tapping Louis’ beak, he said, “Alright, alright~ The Utah Raptor is now our reserve food, you can wait till it’s fattened up before you eat it. Be good and eat some other meat today okay~”

“Chirp~~~~” Louis chirped grievously, but he wasn’t an unreasonable child. He marked[2] down the words “kill when fattened up”, before happily drinking the soup brought back by White.

This whole fattening process ended up taking 7 years [3].

Louis, who had been carefully observing his reserve food for seven whole years, noticed that the reserve food in the kitchen only grew by a little.

It didn’t even grow as much as his family’s Meng Jiuzhao!

In 7 years, Meng Jiuzhao finally grew from a little baby with braided hair to a little shota with a braided ponytail! (Flowers had to be thrown to celebrate(*≥▽≤))

Louis also grew to become a strong looking fat chicken.

The other 5 female cubs of the tribe also developed excellent abdominal muscles, qualifying them to become excellent macho girls.

Also, 3 more young saplings started growing next to Andy and Xuehua’s nest.

And um… Sita still hasn’t wedded out…

Lastly, the ones who growed the most had to be Black and White. After all their teeth fell out, new teeth immediately started growing out one after another! Their thick and fluffy down feathers also started falling more, and a layer of light grey scales grew over the bald spots.

They were all heralds of  their coming of age–

Translator has something to say:

I’m not sure if I added the title of the first volume, but this is the last chapter of it. The next volume’s title: Green Fairy Tale.
