Chapter 295: Spending Time With The Pets [1]

In the Cromwell's Courtyard.

[Huff! Huff!] A panda was breathing heavily as it did a series of pushups. Nox stood at the side watching; he was currently counting the number of repetitions the panda had done.

"And 1000, well done Thirteen," Nox said as the panda collapsed to the ground. As soon as the pushups were over, a blue screen flashed across Nox's retina, detailing Thirteen's progress. Experience new tales on m v|l e'-NovelBin.net

Thirteen wasn't the only one going through intense training. Astralux, Fluffington, and Solora were also undergoing a series of drills. This had been Nox's routine over the past years.

He woke up at four in the morning, trained in martial arts, trained his pets, and went hunting in the dimension. At first, it was very monotonous, but he grew used to it and even looked forward to the next day. The reason for this was improvement.

Every session, he adapted, reformed, and refined his techniques.

It was just too gratifying for him not to get excited when he saw visible improvement.

[Ugh, tired, I want a break.] Solora, the beautiful pet, lay flat on her stomach, her luminous blue scales glimmering under the glare of the sunlight. The baby blue python was extremely exhausted.

Astralux was also beside her. The jellyfish had turned slightly grey, which suggested that she was also tired. The only one still with a bit of strength was Fluffington.

The cat, with his new agile, lean build, was darting through a series of obstructions that Nox had placed. The gaps between the obstructions were intentionally narrow and irregular, designed to challenge Fluffington's agility and reflexes.

FWOOSH! Swoooosh!

Each of Fluffington's leaps, twists, and slides was calculated and precise. Fluffington moved so fast that to the untrained eye, the only thing they would be able to see was nothing but an afterimage of darkness.

Nox grew a little worried; it was even a bit difficult for him to keep up with the cat's movements. A small misstep and the shadow cat would bump into the log of wood that acted as the obstruction.

'This is improvement.' Nox nodded his head in satisfaction. He could still remember the first time Fluffington had started this training drill. That time, the cat had repeatedly slammed into the wood.

Nox watched for a while, and after some time, he decided that it was enough training for the day. He could feel that if he pushed them any further, they'd be burnt out.

"Alright, that's enough," Nox called out.

Fluffington came to a halt mid-dash, just before he could slam into a log.

The cat smoothly turned around before walking toward Nox with an air of pride. His sleek, shadowy fur gleamed under the sunlight, and there was a smug look on his face.

A look that Nox wanted to wipe off. Now he was regretting calling off the training.

'I could've made him beg to stop,' Nox sighed, but it was too late.

[You say that, but I could go for another round if you insist,] Fluffington said, raising his head a little.

"Not today," Nox replied, smirking. "Besides, I can already see your paw trembling slightly. You don't have to prove your toughness."

The cat huffed but didn't argue, settling down beside Nox.

Nox's gaze then shifted to Solora and Astralux, who were sprawled out on the ground. Solora's iridescent blue scales shimmered faintly, while Astralux's usually radiant form was noticeably dimmed. They had truly given it their all, and it showed.

Nox felt proud in his heart. 'All my pets are hardworking!'

"Good work, everyone," Nox said in a soft tone as he walked over to his tired companions. He crouched down and gently stroked Solora's head. The baby python hissed softly in appreciation, her long body coiling lazily.

Solora was tired, but upon feeling Nox's touch, it seemed as if she had suddenly regained her strength. With an agility that would make other snakes cry in jealousy, the baby blue python leaped up, smoothly landing on Nox's shoulder, cooling her body.

Yes, this was her favorite spot!

[Yawn] The baby blue python yawned cutely and fell asleep. Asleep, she seemed so peaceful and vulnerable that Nox would protect her with his life.

Astralux floated up slightly, its jelly-like form wobbling. It felt as if she didn't want to be left out, so she perched on top of Nox's head with a satisfied smile.

"I'll make sure to prepare some nutrient-rich solutions for all of you later," Nox said with a smile.

Some time later,

"Everyone, gather up!" Nox announced as he pulled out nutrients from his inventory. Nox had done a little more research on beasts and discovered that if he could improve their growth and lifespan, he could feed them nutrient-rich solutions.

Nox held up a transparent vial and shook it a little. The vial was filled with green liquid that was slightly foamy. This serum was brewed by Nox and was for Thirteen.

The ingredients used to brew this serum were granulated bamboo shoots and mana-infused honey, all combined with powdered Spirit Root. Nox had first stumbled across the Spirit Root in the dimension along with Eve.

Back then, a group of four savage creatures had fought each other over the roots of the yellow-colored plant, which was in the middle of the conflict like a delicate princess waiting to be swept off her feet by her prince charming.

The fight was intense, but the beasts were extremely careful not to trample on it.

Curious, Nox had asked Eve, and she said that, similar to monster cores, the Spirit Plant improves muscle density and bone strength in beasts. It also boosts resistance to physical attacks, making beasts more resilient in battle.

And lastly, it accelerates physical and magical growth in beasts, allowing them to reach maturity or evolve faster.

The benefits were just too huge to overlook, so Nox had plucked the delicate princess, earning the ire of all the beasts present that day.

But unlike its beautiful appearance, this princess was bitter. Hence, Nox had included honey in the serum for easier consumption.

Thirteen sniffed the vial eagerly, his panda instincts recognizing the sweet aroma of bamboo shoots and honey.

"Here you go, big guy," Nox said as he handed the vial to the exhausted panda.

Gulp! Gulp!

Thirteen gulped it down in one go, licking his lips afterward. A faint green glow surrounded him for a moment as the serum took effect, rejuvenating his body. The panda clenched his fist and felt like he could do another 1000 push-ups!

After giving Thirteen his dose, Nox turned to Astralux and Solora. He pulled out two different vials containing a glowing blue liquid for Solora. This mixture also contained the Spirit Roots, honey, and crushed blueberries.

Honestly, the only effective ingredient here was the Spirit Roots, but Nox had included the berries and honey just for it to be very delicious for Solora and Astralux.

And no, he wasn't being biased because the two were girls!

After feeding both Astralux and Solora, Nox turned to the cat and handed him the white liquid. It was the Spirit Roots with rich milk and honey.

After feeding all his pets, Nox pulled up their respective status screens to view the progress they had made over the years.
