CHAPTER 445: THE CHOPSTICKS OF GLUTTONY

Now Little Mantou had grown up, his fur had also become thick. Hugging him felt comfortable and good like she was embracing a pillow.

The other three were also playing with their Senior Brother’s tails.

"Kya!" (It is so soft and tickling!)

"Ji ji ji!" (Can we ride on your back?) Little Noodle made a nest of the fox’s head.

"You already grew so big!" Chunhua run her hand across the white fur. "I still remember the time when we first met in the forest where we chased each other. You were so cute when you shake your little butt, while you started twirling around, and when you offered me your snack and..." Chunhua muttered in a nostalgic tone only for a white paw to block her mouth.

Little Mantou stiffened with the recollection. His face reddened. "Master! Stop talking about it!" He didn’t want to remember the embarrassing memory of the chicken bone misunderstanding and that fatal stench bomb incident that led him to be her familiar.

If there is a chance, he wanted to erase that. Those are the darkest histories of his life.

"Kya!" (Why stop? I want to hear the rest of the story!)

"ji ji ji!" (Me too! How did Senior Brother shake his butt? I want to see it!)

"Chirp Chirp!" (I didn’t know that Senior Brother could dance! Can you show us at least one move?)

"It’s nothing interesting!" Little Mantou barked, turned his face to the side.

The color of his face was almost the same shade at the red spider lilies. He swept the little guys onto his back before running towards the Main Residence, preventing his Master from the imparting the story otherwise his image of a Senior Brother would be in jeopardy.

Watching the fox’s disappearing back, Chunhu shed a small tear, feeling maternal love, "He’s really grown up."

Bangle: You sigh like an old man.

Bangle? He’s already awake?

"Oh, you’re already finished upgrading?" Chunhua was pleasantly surprised by the chatty bangle’s return.

After they return from the Secret Realm- Atlantis City and Triton’s acknowledgement, the binding mark on the trident was erased and it disappeared from her inventory.

Grandpa Triton became aware and only shrugged it off by saying that he was no longer qualified as an owner after he became a spirit and if the Trident had accepted her easily without repercussions then she must have affinity with it.

The gluttonous also bangle said that before he fell into deep sleep mode that the trident was automatically devoured.

Bangle: Yes, I’m back after the banquet!

The Trident he had been longing for a long time taste so great! High quality weapons were always a cut above the rest. He’s excited for the next one!

[Chopsticks of Avarice- Gold-Grade- (2, 400/ 100, 000 Avarice Points)]

"You need a 100, 000 avarice points for the next upgrade?!" Chunhua was dumfounded. This guy is so expensive to raise! Though not expensive as her stomach but still an eye-opener! At this point, she was considering fighting barehanded. It doesn’t seem like a bad idea.

Bangle: There’s no use despising or throwing me! We’re already bounded! Besides with me as your weapon, you don’t need to worry about repair, losing durability or switching weapons while in combat! And if you found my other half, you will find an unexpected surprise!

"By other half, you mean the one called Chopsticks of Gluttony?"

Bangle: That’s him! We separated after an accident and I don’t know where he went. But how did you know about him?

Chunhua took out a fragment of the weapon and showed it to the bangle. "I obtained a fragment of him from the system rewards."

Bangle was shocked after sensing the Chopsticks of Avarice’s presence on the depressing piece of ore: What the heck? No wonder, I don’t feel him anymore. Someone actually chopped him to pieces. What a poor guy!

From the bangle’s words, there was some kind of hidden story

Bangle: But if you piece that guy back together, then my full secret power will be unleashed and you’ll be fangirling about me!

Secret Power?

A pair of chopsticks is kitchen utensils use for eating...

Images of herself waving the chopsticks and making unlimited copies of Haoran’s dishes with no cool down sprouted in her mind. That is indeed a nice power!

Bangle: What the heck are you thinking? Is food is the only thing in your head?

Chunhua stared at the bangle and frowned, "I’m a refine person. I also think of a good quality rest, nice picnic spots, dieting and places with good feng shui."

Bangle: "..." My non-existent heart is tired! That doesn’t sound refined hobbies to him but she said it proudly that making him flabbergasted.

"Why are you suddenly quiet?" Chunhua shake the bangle.

Bangle fidgeted: It’s nothing. Anyway, I got a new skill.

"New Skill?"

Chunhua appraised the bangle.

[-Current Slot: 15/ 35]

The slot increased. It’s like having a personal armory.

She examined the weapons. "Golem’s axes and hammers, The Lick Knight’s spears, Grandpa Triton’s Trident, Limnad’s Cannon, and Dranax’s staff..."

So far she only used the hammer and spear. The others remained dust in the Bangle’s big stomach but that doesn’t mean they have no use in the future. She could try them on the Death Island tomorrow.

Now, let’s check the new skill.

.....

On the rooftop of the Main Residence, Chunhua looked at the two moons in the shade of red bean paste.

The silver-thread spider and succubus had damaged more than 70% and she had to spend materials and copper coins for repair.

She was initially confident about the mountain path because the level limit of monsters right now is at Level 20 but she has overestimated the appearance of variable factors like the hostile visitors from the other worlds.

Strangely enough, the burden of being a territory owner only settled in her head for real after hearing the cries of her residents. She didn’t even manage to finish her snacks.

Browsing her memory, she searched for something to strengthen the defense of the path. A Teleportation Array would be good substitute but she still lacks one material.
