Ru Yujin introduces his new cute pet to Lin Chu

"What the—What is this thing, Disciple?"

I smiled, only a slightest bit sheepishly.

"Greetings to you too, Master! I didn't expect to hear about you so soon…"

"Answer the question, Yujin."

Lin Chu glared at me, then at the Union, which immediately scuttled to hide behind my back.

It really had instincts of a normal Twinning Rat despite its size.

My teacher caught me right next to the gates of the city, where I expected Qui Chai to travel with the refugees.

All around us were terrified city guards who didn't know if they should bow or point their spears at the Union, and various travelers who either ran or were frozen in place with fear.

In retrospect, going through the front entrance during a day might've been the slightest bit unwise.
