I have Nine Lives

Chapter 76: Returning home victoriously (1)

Siracha took a glance at the poor fox woman whose fate was in the hands of the Fishman shaman because Altraeimo won she was their trophy but they didn't seem to want her, they only looked at everything that happened currently with a strange gaze which Siracha couldn't really understand, he shook his head and decided to leave.

Goro beat his chest as he glared at Wu Xiao, Wu Xiao felt Goro's killing intent multiplying the more he stared at him and he didn't know what to do when he was suddenly slapped over the head by his elder then pointed at his finger.

Wu Xiao took off the special ring from his finger and threw all of its contents on the floor creating a sea of bananas, Goro's eyes immediately focused on the bananas and left Wu Xiao alone.

Felix chuckled seeing everything that was happening and seeing that he was leaving Goro waved at him and threw him one banana from his gigantic amount.

Felix caught the banana in his mouth and afterward followed Siracha who was leaving with the others.

Siracha looked at Felix and found his current appearance really funny, the cat with the banana in his mouth was rather comical and Lindo couldn't help but giggle, Bizkier even started to laugh out loud making Felix confused.

Even the old elephant couldn't help but smirk.

Felix decided to ignore them as he tried to eat the banana imitating Goro, he took off the outer layer and then slowly devoured the sweet contents, he felt that it was rather good food when he suddenly felt an intense amount of energy surging into his body from the banana!

What type of fruit was this?

Siracha's eyes widened seeing Felix's glowing body, it was glowing with a yellow aura that he hadn't ever seen before.

Felix felt strange as if the power that he got from the banana was massaging his insides.

Goro gave a thumbs-up as he saw what was happening and continued to eat his bananas.

Felix didn't know what that thumbs-up meant for him but he didn't feel bad so he guessed the feeling in his body was a good thing.

Seeing that nothing was happening to Felix on the outside made Siracha ask him:

"Are you ok so we can start traveling back?"

Felix patted his body a bit and didn't feel anything changing in him as the aura receded then he nodded and said:

"I'm ok let's go!"

Siracha then took everyone to the beach of the island and found a problem, it would be hard for him to swim with the fox princess tied to his back so they first had to wait until she woke up and felt strong enough to walk and swim by herself, it wasn't a problem for him to support her while swimming but he couldn't keep her tied to his back as there was a chance if he used rope or anything else that she might slip and fall into the deep water.

She needed to be awake so she could cling to Siracha properly.

Siracha hummed a little song as he waited while Felix quickly got bored of staying still, Bizkier didn't mind as he started talking with Mashi while Lindo came closer to Felix sat down, and looked at him.

Felix found it awkward for Lindo to stare at him but if he acted like this it meant that he wanted to talk with him.

Lindo came a little bit more closer and whispered to Felix:

"You know we actually own the fox princess now, my grandfather told me that since we won we will have to take care of her after we go back to the tribe."

Felix's eyes narrowed as he heard that, he didn't want to play babysitter for that princess, he had better things to do!

He could eat, sleep or train his breathing techniques!

He even got two new ones from Wu Xiao's memories and he had more training to do!

Seeing Felix's expression made Lindo understand that he didn't want to take care of her, if he was honest with himself he would rather train to improve himself as well, there was a war coming on the horizon and it was at the continental scale, nothing small that had been happening up till now, if it was to be compared what they all did was only skirmishes at a small scale to the upcoming war!

Felix didn't know much about the upcoming war but Lindo was a little bit more informed, he decided to tell him all he knew as well:

"Felix you see we won't have much time to take care of her but we still have to train with her, she might be a great asset on the battlefield!"

Felix took a look at the unconscious princess, she was laid down on the sand and her complexion started to take a turn for the better as she was far away from the raven shaman.

"Her? But she was easily defeated and her abilities aren't anything powerful..."

"Well she did have to fight Goro head-on with her mediocre teammates, what do you think we would have done if we had to fight Goro?"

This shut up Felix rather quickly, he knew what would have happened and he didn't like to imagine it.

"Well, I guess she could be useful?"

He didn't really know much about her besides that charm field of hers that he didn't find really impressive due to fighting Wu Xiao who had better mental attacks, he didn't feel really affected by her charm field after he protected his soul but Wu Xiao's techniques could pierce through and he was a rather versatile fighter.

Seeing that Felix didn't have many thoughts about her usefulness made Lindo a bit awkward as he was the one who came up with the suggestion but they would have to wait and see when she would wake up.

It took almost 3 hours for the fox princess to wake up and when she looked around she felt both scared and confused, she didn't know where she was nor who these people around her were, suddenly she recognized Felix and the others as she saw them competing in the event.

Felix came closer to her but her fox ears moved up and down as she eyed him up and down, she wanted to see if he could be trustworthy or not.

Atleast he didn't attack her as the raven shaman did.

But she still didn't let her guard down, she glared at him with her amber-colored eyes and didn't say anything.

Felix wasn't sure what to do in this situation... so he only started by approaching her more and waiting for her reaction.
