Hearing Yue Qingyou's concern, Night Sky God immediately bowed and said,
"Please rest assured, my lady!"
"I stake my life on it!"
"It will never harm the Little Princess!"
With that, he grabbed the Evil Glutton by its horn and pulled it close, his eyes icy as he whispered in its ear:
"If the Little Princess is frightened, I will twist off your head and spine together."
Evil Glutton: "..."
At the whispered threat, the beast's ferocious gaze instantly cleared, and it nodded obediently.
Ning Yechen also gave Luo Ruying a reassuring look.
After a moment's hesitation, Luo Ruying, holding Luo Hongye, approached the Evil Glutton.
From the beginning, Luo Hongye had been staring at the "big kitty" with her mouth slightly agape, her expression one of dazed wonder.
The Evil Glutton lay docilely on the ground, waiting as Luo Ruying carefully placed Luo Hongye on its back.
As she settled onto the creature's back, Luo Hongye felt the soft, plush fur beneath her hands. Excitedly, she pressed her cheek against its back and rubbed it back and forth.
"Big kitty~ So warm~"
After confirming Luo Hongye was securely seated, the Evil Glutton slowly rose to his feet and began to cautiously circle the King's Square, his steps light and deliberate as he tried not to startle her.
Ning Yechen, Luo Ruying, and the others stood at a distance, smiling faintly as they watched the delighted Luo Hongye.
"Big kitty, Yeye wants to go over there~"
Luo Hongye pointed to a group of children gathered at the far end of the square, eager to join their games.
However, as the Evil Glutton turned and began to approach them, the children scattered in panic...
Luo Hongye was unaware of the Evil Glutton's fearsome reputation in the Demon Realm. The other demon children had grown up hearing tales of his ferocity and dared not come within a step of him.
Seeing the children flee, a hint of disappointment crossed Luo Hongye's face.
She just wanted to play with her big kitty together with everyone else. Why did they all run away...?
"Big kitty, why are they running from Yeye...?" Luo Hongye asked, hugging the creature and looking up at it with innocent curiosity.
The Evil Glutton desperately wanted to tell her that they weren't afraid of her, but of him...
But when the words reached her lips, only a low growl escaped.
Demonic beasts possessed intelligence that grew with their cultivation, but unlike monster beasts, they couldn't shapeshift or speak.
Thus, it couldn't answer Luo Hongye's question...
Hearing the Evil Glutton's deep growl, the surrounding crowd scrambled even further away in terror.
"Do you all want to play with Big Kitty with Yeye...?" Luo Hongye asked, mustering her courage and showing her adorable little face to the distant group.
The crowd exchanged nervous glances, none daring to approach.
Even without the Evil Glutton's fearsome reputation, as the Little Princess of the Demon Realm, Luo Hongye's status made them hesitant to interact casually.
Ning Yechen, watching from afar, noticed the problem.
He'd wanted to let his child enjoy riding the big kitty and making friends with the other children, but he'd forgotten to consider the Evil Glutton's fearsome reputation and his child's status in the Demon Realm.
He didn't mind his child playing with the others; in fact, he welcomed it, wanting her to make more friends.
However, being the Little Princess of the Demon Realm on top of her identity at Southern Departure Academy was proving to be a challenge.
Yue Qingyou, the 'grandmother,' couldn't stand to see her little princess unhappy. Seeing her dejected expression, she immediately requested, "Demon Lord, may I arrange for some people to play with the Little Princess?"
Ning Yechen hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.
While he wanted someone to play with the child, he didn't want it to be like this.
Having people specifically assigned to play with her would feel like a duty, not genuine friendship.
Seeing no one respond, Luo Hongye's face fell. She was about to turn Evil Glutton around to go back to Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying when a voice, equally young and clear, suddenly came from beneath the creature's feet.
"Can I come up and play too?"
Hearing someone actively engage with her, Luo Hongye's face lit up. She readily replied in her soft, sweet voice, "Yes, yes~!"
When Luo Hongye peered down from Evil Glutton's back, she saw a petite, slender, and pretty girl, not much older than herself, standing at the creature's feet.
Other children would have been too terrified to go near the Evil Glutton, but this little girl stood there with a calm and composed expression, not a trace of fear in her eyes. She simply gazed up at Luo Hongye.
Even the Evil Glutton couldn't help but stare at the girl with suspicion and wariness.
*This little girl... isn't she afraid of me at all?*
"Big kitty, can she come up too?" Luo Hongye asked, patting the Evil Glutton with her sweet, childish voice.
As the Little Princess of the Demon Realm had spoken, the Evil Glutton dared not refuse. It obediently lay down on the ground.
The girl hesitated for a moment before, like a child, she slowly climbed onto the Evil Glutton's soft fur.
"I'm Yeye~"
"What's your name, sister~?" Luo Hongye introduced herself happily once the girl was on her back.
The girl smiled slightly. "I'm Kui."
"You can call me Sister Kui~"
"Sister Kui~" Luo Hongye called out sweetly.
Luo Ruying was delighted to see Luo Hongye making a new friend so readily.
Ning Yechen and Yue Qingyou, however, both frowned slightly, as if by unspoken agreement.
This little girl...
Hearing Luo Hongye call her "Sister Kui," Kui's face lit up with an expression of pure, delighted satisfaction.
"Yeye, would you like Sister Kui to take you flying on a big kitty~?"
"Yes~!"
"Yeye wants to fly on a big kitty~!" Luo Hongye exclaimed, raising her hand excitedly.
Kui chuckled softly, pulling Luo Hongye into her arms. With natural ease, she took the reins of Evil Glutton and patted the beast. "Evil... no, big kitty, fly~!"
Evil Glutton stared at Kui in disbelief. *Why does this little girl dare to command me like this...?* With the Little Princess of the Demon Realm on its back, it couldn't afford to fly recklessly. If it frightened her, its head would be forfeit.
Evil Glutton turned to Ning Yechen for guidance. "Demon Lord, that little girl seems... unusual."
The Night Sky God had also noticed Kui's unusual behavior while holding Luo Hongye. He was about to step forward to apprehend her for interrogation when Ning Yechen raised a hand to stop him.
"No need. Let them play."
Ning Yechen nodded slightly at Evil Glutton.
After receiving Ning Yechen's permission, the Evil Glutton slowly flapped its wings and rose into the air, circling the King's Square.
It didn't fly very high or fast, but Luo Hongye was having a wonderful time.
The other children below couldn't help but look up and watch the Evil Glutton circling in the air.
Suddenly, they realized that the legendary, fearsome beast didn't seem as terrifying as their mothers had described...
When the Evil Glutton had circled a few times and landed, Kui looked at the other children on the square, their eyes full of envy and a desire to try, and asked with a smile:
"Aren't you really going to come up and give it a try?"
"Are you really not as brave as us two little girls?"
"W-we're not scared at all...!"
As soon as she spoke, many of the proud and competitive children present mustered their courage and approached the Evil Glutton, carefully climbing onto its back.
Before long, quite a few children were sitting around on the creature's fluffy back...
The Evil Glutton lay on the ground, its face a picture of utter resignation.
It never imagined that such a fearsome beast would one day become a pet carrying a group of children on their playful adventures...
