Chapter 5
This night was destined to be sleepless!
Today was the important day for the "choosing a mate" ceremony, and the whole tribe was filled with a vague, romantic atmosphere, with red bubbles of anticipation floating around. Some orcs with good hearing could even catch the soft sighs coming from various places in the tribe…
Silu was exhausted after being overwhelmed by his partner the whole night. It wasn't until the sky was just about to lighten that he finally managed to fall asleep.
Beside Silu, A Mo looked at the little female in his arms, his eyes full of tenderness and warmth. Seeing the marks on her body, all left by him the previous night, his heart swelled with satisfaction and achievement.
Now, he was no longer a single male. He, A Mo, had his very own little female. How wonderful!
He reached out to gently touch the small spotted deer mark on her wrist, his eyes soft with affection. This was his mark! He had given her his beast mark.
From now on, he vowed to protect and care for Silu with all his life, until the very moment of his death!
A Mo lifted Silu's hand and kissed the mark on her wrist gently. In their orc world, this kiss symbolized absolute loyalty and submission.
Looking at the sky outside, he reluctantly got up and went out…
Silu woke up feeling hungry.
"Growl~!" She slowly regained consciousness. Hmm, so hungry! She rubbed her stomach, which felt a little flat.
[Host, congratulations on successful mating. The space farmland has now been unlocked. If you take the pregnancy pill now, you can be 100% certain to conceive. Don't waste such an excellent opportunity.]
The system's voice sounded.
Silu, upon hearing this, immediately took out the pregnancy pill and swallowed it. She hadn't expected that the system would reward her after mating. Upon hearing about the space farmland, she understood.
This was to let her farm! But it was great! She could plant whatever she wanted. How wonderful!
[Not only that, the host can also store items in the space, excluding living creatures!]
Silu was even more excited! Didn't this mean she now had a storage space? This was such a pleasant surprise!
Haha, who would have thought her system would be so powerful? No wonder in novels, the protagonists with special powers always succeed and become powerful figures. She envied them!
But now, she also had one!
How could she not be excited?
'System, you're truly amazing!' Silu thought to herself.
[This system exists solely for the host. To satisfy and support the host is its mission. Of course, I hope the host will also fulfill your own mission.]
'Don't worry, I definitely will!' Silu thought.
Although she had arrived in this world and felt quite out of place, she believed that she would gradually adapt to everything here, including completing her mission and tasks.
Silu raised her hand and noticed the beast mark on her wrist—a cute mini spotted deer. It was so adorable!
At that moment, A Mo happened to return from a hunt.
"That's our beast mark, left by the male after mating. It represents our absolute loyalty and protection for the female," A Mo said, looking at Silu with warmth in his eyes.
"Are you hungry? I'll prepare food for you right away," he added gently.
The little female was so pure and delicate. Just thinking about last night, his heart fluttered.
What should he do? He was truly in love.
Just looking at her like this, he was completely immersed in it.
"Mm-hmm, I'm hungry," Silu nodded, her eyes lighting up when she saw the prey A Mo brought back.
Curious, she stood up and walked over to him.
"Don't come over here; there's some blood. Wait for me over there," A Mo immediately said.
He knew that little females were very timid and fragile, so he didn't want her to see such scenes, worried that it might scare her.
"Wait for me a moment, I'll finish quickly," he added as he hurried to process the animal.
He would try to prepare the meat properly next time to avoid scaring her.
Earlier, he had been a little careless. Now that he had a partner, he hadn't thought of these things.
He quickly used his long fingers to carve the sheep, processing the beast's meat.
Meanwhile, Silu took out the fruit A Mo had given her yesterday and started eating it.
The fruit was similar to an apple, but not as sweet. It wasn't bad, though, and she liked it quite a bit.
She had a lot to learn about this beast world. She thought she'd try to get some information from A Mo later.
However, when she glanced at A Mo while he was handling the sheep, she saw something flash on his finger, something blue. The meat and skin instantly separated—how magical!
What was this amazing power?
It seemed like the special abilities described in novels.
"A Mo, I want to eat cooked food. Can we roast the meat?" Silu said, recalling the raw meat from the food A Mo gave her yesterday. She just couldn't eat it because of the strong smell. In the end, she only ate some fruit.
"Alright, wait for me a moment. I'll prepare it quickly," A Mo said as he finished preparing and went to get the fire.
After finishing her apple, Silu started gathering dry branches nearby.
Just then, she saw A Mo borrow the fire.
When he saw the dry branches in Silu's hands, his expression instantly turned sour.
"Put that down. Let me handle it. I'm your beast husband, and it's my duty to take care of you," A Mo quickly said, walking over to take the branches from her hands with a serious expression and a hint of concern.
"It's fine, I'm just picking some dry branches outside the cave. I can do it," Silu said.
This guy really was a little fierce when he got upset.
"No, you're not doing this. From now on, I'll do these things. You're delicate, and I'm worried you'll hurt yourself," A Mo said, looking at her hands, relieved to see no cuts.
He couldn't help it! Little females had such delicate skin, so he was extra cautious.
Last night, when he gently pinched her chin, it turned bright red right away, and it had scared him.
"But I can't always rely on you. I should be able to do these little things. You can't follow me around all the time!" Silu said.
She liked that someone cared for her so much, but she didn't want to become useless.
"You can rely on me. I'm your beast husband, your partner. I will protect you and be loyal to you for life. I will guard you with my life!" A Mo said, his gaze intense.
Silu was touched.
No one had ever said such things to her before.
For some reason, she believed him!
This guy would really protect her with his life.
"Alright," Silu said, smiling.
With such a sincere heart, how could she refuse?
