The Record of Unusual Creatures

Chapter 93: Am I Really A Husky?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

　　Although her origins seemed a little peculiar, as a ‘werewolf’, Lily had good physical quality. Even after she was forced to transform back to her human form, perhaps due to the strong effects of the incense, she stood energetic as before. Right after she had turned back into human, she started chasing after Hao Ren and Vivian to gather more details about her transformation. Well, the basic idea was: I’m very powerful, right?

To be honest, looking from another perspective… That’s pretty powerful.

Of course Vivian would seize the opportunity to dampen the spirit of Lily. "Don’t get too excited. You have to figure out a solution for clothing issues. You’ll ruin the clothes that you’re wearing every single time you transform into another being. I’m not your nanny. I won’t mingle with you all day just to bring you new clothes."

Lily was calmer now. Looking upon the new clothes she was wearing, prepared by Vivian, she was grateful to the vampire whom she had always had a little prejudice of. In a very rare occasion, the werewolf girl thanked Vivian. "Thank you, I wasn’t expecting this to happen... But how do you usually solve this problem? It’s amazing that you often transform into a swarm of bats easily..."

"I’m using magic," Vivian shrugged and did not assume it was a big deal. "It’s a very simple trick for me, but I’m afraid it’s difficult for you. But then again, it seems that there are no other options to solve this problem with magic. Other high order blood clans are directly using enchanted fabric to manufacture clothes to resolve this issue. Those types of clothing can be integrated with all forms of the body after being recharged, and it won’t cause damages at all. As far as I know, I am the only one who has created the technique of wearing ordinary clothes without damaging the cloth while transforming. I'm such a genius."

Hao Ren glanced at Vivian strangely and asked, "Do you think you have lived long enough to feel free about yourself? Why did you pursue this?"

Vivian looked very serious and replied, "Because I’m poor."

Hao Ren paused for a moment. A moment later, he then realised what Vivian meant when she responded. Vivian could not afford to wear the common enchanted clothes of a vampire...

Well, this was a vampire who was so poor that she could not afford the clothes of her own clan and that she could only dig into all sorts of unorthodox ways to save money. What a dumb werehusky whom she thought she was a werewolf for decades. Both of them were actually birds of the same feather, how could they have possibly despise each other?

Hao Ren waved to Lily and said, "Lily, there is one thing I have to tell you... I hope you're mentally prepared."

Lily jumped to Hao Ren happily at once and said, "Just say it, my mental ability is constantly fit! Is the rent increasing next month?"

What a nice girl she is. She had not realised that she was the only tenant in the house who paid the rent on time. Trustworthy girls like this were really hard to find these days. Looking at the pure smile on Lily's face, Hao Ren could not bare his heart to tell her the truth, nevertheless he gritted his teeth and said, "Lily, are you familiar with huskies?"

"Yes, the dumbass Husky," said Lily while smiling. "Merely stupid but entertaining enough. Landlord, do you want to keep one? No problem, I'll have a look out for you. I promise to find you a good one…"

Hao Ren slapped himself on the forehead and said, "Damn, I can’t do it."

Vivian looked even more reluctant than Hao Ren. She sighed, looked up to see the sinking moon, and threw the huge pouch between her feet to the Y’zaks and said, "If you can't mention it now, then tell her after we have returned. Let's pack up and go home. We've been out long enough. "

Lily looked at Vivian and Hao Ren with confusion. She could not figure out why both of them seemed hesitated. Fortunately, she stopped focusing on the problem in a wink of time, then started running around merrily and helped the others pack up their stuff. After all, she was a Husky.

Hao Ren seemed troubled after having a glimpse at the messy spots and asked, "What are we going to do here? This place looks like a bombed scene and 100-metered-radius sinkhole is placed over there. I'm afraid trouble will approach soon if we don’t tidy up."

Y’zaks immediately knew that it was his turn to do something. He yelled, and with sparks gushing out from his mouth, "All of you step back…"

Hao Ren slapped against the Y’zaks back (the force was so hard that it numbed his hand) and asked, "Could you please avoid using meteorites at all?"

"Forget it, just leave it there," said Vivian. "Just some big pits. There are no supernatural substances left, people can’t figure out any way from this. Or it will affect locals who stole the loess to be fined again. Hurry up! I am not willing to stand here any longer. The incense makes me dizzy... The incense seems a little too strong."

So with "Lily’s Hyper-evolution", which left Hao Ren speechless, has ended satisfactorily. Four of them carried the bags and left the unrecognisable land, leaving only the pungent incense which can vanish itself in the morning, along with the gullies and big pits on the ground. This is sure to become another hot topic of the old folks who live around the southern suburbs in the next few days, however, it does not have nothing to do with Hao Ren.

The full moon was gradually sinking, starlight began fading gently, and the wilderness has silenced , everything seemed to have settled here. Soon, a cloud of dark smoke suddenly appeared from nowhere, and compiled into an unusual tall figure by the edge of the big pit which was caused by Lily.

The tall, muscular figure remain shrouded in a shadow. The details of the figure’s face were then blurred. Judging from his stature, that he was a rather strong man. This unknown figure was standing beside the pit within hundred meters, sniffing to distinguish a certain scent that lingered in the air. The man spit and said, "Tsk, such a half-baked, they even used the wrong incense in the ritual."

Right after the man stopped speaking, another cloud of dark mist drifted from nowhere, and condensed into a somewhat smaller figure. This man’s face was hidden in the shadows. He stooped over to pick up a piece of residual spice and shoved it into his mouth and said, "The formula is right, but it's not meant for the coming-of-age ritual. The younger generations has become rather disappointing. Can you verify which family's descendant is this?"

" I don’t think anyone cares about family backgrounds these days," the tall man answered and laughed. "You can’t pick information up from those old-school folks. The world is getting drastically difficult than ever. It’s not easy to survive, not to mention the kid who just became an adult. Whatever family it belongs to, we have to seek upon different ways to get in contact with it. In my opinion, the scenes of the ritual... the arrangement was rather confusing and it didn’t follow the actual rules. That one person who conducted the coming-of-age ritual here is probably an orphan. If there was a ‘parent’ whom is able to guide it from aside, it couldn’t have used the wrong incense."

The shorter man spitted out the incense dreg from his mouth. He waved his hand just before he proceeded and said, "Begin analyzing the situation first. I’m gonna throw up."

The tall man waited for his companion to return, pointing towards the direction of the town and said, "The smell of residual incense here is too heavy, I can roughly judge that they are heading towards that direction, we’ll head straight for them and will start the search separately tomorrow."

"Why don’t we hunt for them now? They may not have gone far…"

"It is said that one or two demon hunters have been appearing in this area recently. Without an doubt, they’re surely attracted by the half-baked youths. Taking action at night will cause us to be easily targeted by them. Remember, we have to behave like humans, and in this way we are able to live longer."

"The Demon Hunter…" The short man sighed and looked up at the sinking moon, he then turned into a puff of dark mist and dissipated into mid air.

"The Demon Hunter…"

Along with a sigh, another puff of dark mist faded away too.

They have returned and knew nothing about what has happened in the wilderness. And now they’re about to face another tricky problem.

Lily was sitting on the sofa in the centre of the living room with looks of despair. She wanted to reconfirm with the three of them and asked, "Do all of you clearly see that... it’s a husky?"

"You are a veterinarian, and you specialise in dogs," said Hao Ren while pulling out the Mobile Data Terminal from his pocket and continued, "This is the video we took after you’ve evolved. Watch it and examine it. Our words won’t count, you’ll have to see for yourself."

The Mobile Data Terminal activated a shield to protect itself in case Lily got angry and bit it to pieces, and then it turned on the holographic projection cautiously, showing the footage recorded two hours ago.

A mighty, domineering, powerful, handsome and lovely… husky was galloping in the wilderness where pits were seen everywhere on the ground. She was gamboling, rolling, digging, and running around with a stone in her mouth. The husky was exceptionally good with the four basic skills.

Lily's tears were rolling down her cheeks on the spot. "Am I really a husky…"
