Chapter 953: Powerful Attraction

Nevertheless, Aria completely understood Leon's meaning.

Rice itself isn't all that great. In fact, it could be considered plain. However, it could be eaten with anything, which makes it great.

There were undoubtedly better examples, but they are all subjected to personal opinions. Only rice is universally accepted by everyone in the empire.

"If it's fish, then… don't we have a lot of it? In high quality as well," Aria said.

She quickly took out a large piece of sea monster meat from her interspatial ring before cutting it up into bite-size pieces for the Winter Cat.

Nevertheless, the moment she took out the sea monster meat, the Winter Cat stopped struggling and flailing about in Leon's hands, its eyes glued on her sea monster meat.

"Looks like I caught its interest," Aria giggled.

Shortly after, she picked up a bite-size piece of sea monster meat and waved it in front of the Winter Cat, causing its eyes to follow the seafood accordingly.

However, the Winter Cat didn't have a lot of patience. Thus, it was quickly upset when it couldn't reach the food in front of its eyes.

"Reow!" the Winter Cat growled.

"Hehe! Ah, it's so cute even when it's mad!" Aria grew increasingly fond of the Winter Cat, which might still be a kitten.

She didn't tease the Winter Cat for too long before she fed it.

"Be careful."

"Mm."

Aria took note of Leon's warning.

The Winter Cat had immediately snatched the piece of sea monster meat out of Aria's hand the moment it entered the Winter Cat's range.

Even so, Aria was careful enough not to be scratched by it.

The Winter Cat devoured the piece of sea monster meat in an instance. Then, it shifted its gaze on the rest of the pile of sea monster meat that Aria prepared.

"Looks like it wants more," Aria chuckled before picking up another piece to feed the Winter Cat. "Do you think I'm doing it right, Leon?"

"Maybe if you stop teasing it. I doubt it'll feel gracious for the food when you are antagonizing it," Leon inserted his opinion with a wry smile.

Nevertheless, Aria sure knows how to spoil the Winter Cat, taking out a Paragon-level sea monster meat straight from the start.

Even so, they probably needed this level of temptation to tame the Winter Cat.

"Ah, that's true…" Aria nodded in agreement. But then, she added, "But I can't help myself. It's too adorable."

"Can I try feeding it too?"

Faelyn requested with a hopeful look while restraining her excitement. She didn't have any sea monster meat of her own. Thus, she could only ask.

"Of course! Do you even have to ask, Sister Faelyn?" Aria responded.

"It doesn't feel right unless I ask. After all, it's not appropriate to take something that doesn't belong to me, Sister Aria," Faelyn replied wryly.

Nevertheless, Aria and Faelyn took turns feeding the Winter Cat. The more they fed it, the more docile it became.

The Winter Cat stopped trying to snatch the food out of Aria and Faelyn's hands and simply devoured with its mouth as the seafood was fed to it

Even so, it was still far from being tamed. At the very least, Leon deemed it wasn't ready to be released from his hold.

Darlene watched Aria and Faelyn having fun feeding the Winter Cat and could help but want to join them. She felt like she was missing out.

After she joined them, Leon turned to his mother.

"Don't you want to try feeding the Winter Cat as well, mother?" Leon asked.

However, Elizabeth shook her head with a calm smile and said, "No, I'm fine with just watching. But do you think this method will work? Even if it does, it's just one Winter Cat and not a very strong one at that."

"It doesn't matter. It's fine as long as Aria and Faelyn are happy with it," Leon replied with a casual smile. "But whether it works or not, only time will tell."

Perhaps because they were using Paragon-level sea monster meat, they started seeing noticeable changes in the Winter Cat's attitude.

Aria noticed the Winter Cat lost its ferocity—or at the very least, it didn't view her with hostility. Its eyes showed great anticipation towards its next bite.

Despite its small body, the Winter Cat had already eaten over twice its size in sea monster, which contained abundant amounts of energy.

It was unknown where it found the stomach to eat so much, but it showed no sign of getting full. It was like it had never been full in its life.

Nevertheless, the Winter Cat's aura started to grow.

Suddenly, Aria decided to take a risk and recklessly fed the sea monster meat to the Winter Cat, which startled everyone.

Luckily, Aria succeeded in her gamble.

After the Winter Cat gobbled up the sea monster meat in Aria's hand, it didn't try to eat her hand too. Instead, it licked her fingers and even rubbed its head against it.

Faelyn's eyes brightened at once. She also wanted to try the same thing.

However, when she went to fetch the next piece of sea monster meat to feed the Winter Cat, she suddenly froze.

Faelyn also noticed Leon, Elizabeth, and Darlene had grown silent in that instance.

"Um, Sister Aria?" Faelyn uttered.

"Hm? What is it, Sister Faelyn?" Aria responded while fixing her gaze on the Winter Cat. She giggled at the ticklish feeling of getting her fingers licked.

"You don't happen to have enough sea monster meat to feed an entire tribe of Winter Cats, do you?" Faelyn asked.

Shortly after that question was raised, Aria immediately paused.

When she peeled her eyes off the Winter Cat, she immediately noticed many other Winter Cats had surrounded the group.

Just by looking at them, Aria estimated there were at least ten thousand Winter Cats, both big and small ones.

The smallest was the same size as the one in Leon's hand, but the biggest was tenfold.

"It seems like the smell of the Paragon-level sea monster meat may have attracted the entire Winter Cat Tribe," Leon finally commented with a wry smile.
