After defeating the baby dinosaur whose height had only reached 3 meters, now laid on the ground lifeless and no longer breathing. Standing at the side is a pair of beastmen in their half beast form. On their human figure, beast features like animal ears, claws and fangs were present on their bodies. The sight of the two men were both mesmerizing and attractive in a way. They had this contrasting appearance but complementing presence.
One had the almost perfected state of unpigmented. White medium length hair, snow dyed smooth skin and orbs with the shade of light cerulean. On the top of his head are small rounded ears which twitch at the hints of sounds from a certain distance. This man is Xuebao, a female snow leopard beastman.
Beside Xuebao is a man who is taller than him has a slightly tanned skin, flawless proportional muscles and lines. Short coal black hair, captivating features and golden orbs for eyes. On his head are rounded ears which are slightly larger than Xuebao, it has the same shade as his hair. This person is the strongest warrior of the Lune Tribe. A male black jaguar beastman currently is Xuebao's Protector and suitor.
Xuebao, who is looking at the dead dinosaur in front of him, thought for a moment before asking the man beside him to clear his confusion.
"Could this thing be eaten?" asked Xuebao.
Meizhou looked at him weirdly, "You have eaten this countless times before. Of course it could be eaten. It's tastier than the cow's meat." he replied.
Hearing that this thing is a delicacy much more delicious than beef, Xuebao this foodie instantly had his eyes show excitement.
"Let's bring it back home! Let's just drag it this way. One foot for you and me. That weak rabbit can carry the basket and the rest of things." said Xuebao with a small smile on his face.
Catching a sight of this rare expression, Meizhou's heart started beating faster. He tried to remain calm and nodded at the former with a contentment in his eyes.
Xuebao's mind is currently concentrating on filtering recipes with beef as main ingredients and didn't notice these sudden changes in Meizhou's usual deadpan face. In his mind he told System Yue to get Tuzi ready to leave. Then both the two of them followed the plan and dragged the dead dinosaur back with them to the tribe.
On the other hand, Tuzi, this female rabbit beastman observed the pair with glowing eyes, he seems very happy about something. With the obvious fanatic daze in those pink eyes, he suddenly starts talking on his own.
"Hehe~ animal ears, animal tails. Hihi! It's almost cosplay! S-So many types of play could be done. Kukuku~"
One will be able to clearly see his drools if they looked at Tuzi's face directly. The one that brought him back to reality is none other than an auto mode invisible system in his moon avatar, Yue. He bashed him on his forehead with his perfectly round glowing body.
Now with a huge swollen bump on his forehead, Tuzi glared at System Yue with teary eyes. "Owwiee~~"
[Back to reality, I guess?]
"With this much throbbing pain of course I would wake up from my fantasy! What's wrong with me fanboying towards my favorite CP!!?" complains Tuzi.
[There is no problem with fanboying but... if you keep getting caught up like this in your fantasy. They would leave you here!]
System Yue informed him, as he looked at the direction of his favorite CP, he indeed saw them preparing to leave while dragging that heavy looking dinosaur corpse back with them to the tribe. Then he looked at the basket full of apples, wild berry bushes, tree roots and firewood. Tuzi didn't know whether to cry or not.
"Do I need to carry these all?~~" asked Tuzi with an almost crying face.
[Do you think you are like my host who had monstrous strength or a male beastman who was born with almighty power? Or do you think you could drag that 3 meters tall dinosaur instead?]
Tuzi with tears strolling down on his face, "Wuwuwu~ I can't do either~!! But I might break my back if I carry all of this!" retorted by this silly rabbit.
[No worries~ my host is an excellent doctor. He could at least return back any dislocated bone though... it will be a torturous experience for you~~]
Tuzi's face turned gloomy at this fact. So instead of just carrying all things on his back. He carried only the basket and wild pheasants behind him. The firewood in front. This is the first time he walked like a stunned straight rod. Unable to fall back or lean forward. He walks like a penguin but the speed is enough to catch up from the two in front of him.
------
Lune Tribe's Territory.
The tribe's hunting team led by Captain Warrior Lang had brought back a diverse amount of prizes. There are 5 wild pigs, 10 wild chickens, 3 adult grey wolves and one grizzly brown bear with them.
Their tribe clan members especially the females had surrounded these men with adoring eyes on them making the men proud of the result of their task. There are more females surrounding Male wolf beastman named Lang. His overall strength is not bad. He is only slightly weaker than Laohu in their beast form. This is because Laohu as a Tiger beastman had a larger physique than Lang, who is a Wolf beastman, the latter got ranked after Laohu making him the third strongest warrior in the tribe.
Ordinary female beastmen like him but his arrogance and straightforwardness sometimes offends others unconsciously. This is the reason why talented females sometimes strays away from him. As he couldn't hold back his tongue whether he is complimenting others or dissing.
"Lang you are really strong~"
"You are so amazing Lang!"
"Did you guys hunt all these!!? Wow~~"
"Lang, would you like to join me for lunch?"
"Lang..."
The inquiries from the female beastmen were almost endless. For a strong warrior like Captain Lang this should be expected. In this Primitive world, Male beastmen especially those with strength and talents are the female's best option for marriage.
Captain Warrior Lang has a huge smile on his face as he enjoys his tribesmen appreciation and those females adoration.
Kakaka~
But suddenly the world becomes quiet. Before Warrior Lang knew the reason he saw a 3 meter tall creature approaching their tribe, he had immediately led the male beastmen in the area to block the creature.
"Everyone get ready to fight!!" exclaimed Lang.
"WOA!!!" Everyone responded with a battle cry.
The male beastmen block the entrance of the tribe's camp intending to fight the tall creature only to be dumbfounded when a female beastman in his half beast form comes running with a huge basket on his back and a few more things hanging on his body. He instantly kneeled while out of breath as he reached the entrance of the tribe and fell on the ground as if he lost consciousness. This is a female who had a fawn colored rabbit ears on his head now folded down because of his lack of energy. This female beastman is Tuzi.
Reaching out a trembling hand towards Lang, "W-Water~~ Give me water~ I'm dying~~" Said Tuzi.
After Tuzi drinks the offered water to him like a dry desert. Like a dry plant you finally got his water, he was now energized and was smiling well pleased.
"Ah~ Xuebao and Meizhou said to clear the area. They'll be bringing a baby dinosaur back! They've just hunted it together~" said Tuzi with a huge smile.
"T-They've hunted a dinosaur?! Meizhou with a female beastman alone? Impossible!" said Lang in disbelief.
Tuzi pouted and frowned at him when he heard him say that. He had seen his favorite CP defeated that dinosaur. Even though it is just a baby Xuebao only needs to twist its neck to kill it instantly! I saw it with my own eyes! I'm not lying!" Retorted Tuzi.
Seeing such honest anger within those pinkish eyes, Lang felt undeniable guilt for a second. "I... I didn't say... you are lying. I didn't say that!" responded Lang. "I thought all of those creatures are carnivores so... it will be impossible for a female... I mean might be quite... No. A bit impossible... I said nothing!" said Lang after seeing the flaming anger within Tuzi's eyes.
"Hmph! You can't say anything bad to my Male God and my favorite CP! Moreover not all those dinosaurs are carnivores." said Tuzi.
"Dinosaur? That creature is called a dinosaur?" asked Lang, this time not only Warrior Lang was surprised. Their other tribe members were startled knowing those dangerous creatures have a name.
Tuzi looked at his tribe members and even saw the coincidentally passing Tribe Priest overheard his and Warrior Lang's conversation. The name of the Tribe Priest is Anbao. He is the tribe leader's little brother and Xuebao's uncle.
"Those creatures are called Dinosaurs? You could differentiate which of those are carnivorous and not?" Tribe Priest, Anbao asked.
Seeing a high ranking elder before him Tuzi unconsciously hid behind Lang while peeking at the Tribe Priest. After the Tribe Leader and Meizhou, he is most afraid of the Tribe Priest as he is said to be the smartest in their whole tribe. What would happen if the original Tuzi happened to be close to this old man. He might think He got possessed or something.
Looking at the frightened little female, the tribe priest's eyes softened; he knew that his nephew and this boy have been scorned by others before. "Don't be afraid, little one. This old man is Baobao's little uncle. I would never harm you." said Anbao.
"Uhh~~ I... I don't know much about it. But maybe Xuebao knew how to differentiate them more. I will ask him about it later and tell the elders about it the next day. Is this alright?" asked Tuzi.
An amicable smile appeared on the elder's face and pats Tuzi's head, "Then I'll leave it to you, Tu'er. If you can't find me tomorrow you look for my apprentice Xiong and tell him about it. Don't worry Xiong is not scary and quite friendly. I;m sure you'll get along well." said Anbao.
"Oh... Okay. I will..." said Tuzi.
Then someone suddenly tapped on Tuzi's back and said while pointing at the dinosaur placed at the center of the tribe area. Laying there lifeless surrounded by curious beastmen.
"Tuzi, Meizhou said that Xuebao wants the most of the part that can be used as what is that again? H-Hotpot? Yes~ that! He wanted you to get some meat parts for that and get some vegetables in the tribe leader's food warehouse." A nameless female beastman said.
"Eh? Where are they?!" asked Tuzi while looking around for his favorite CP only to not see them at all.
Another beastman replied, "Xuebao said that he felt disgusting being covered in dirt and sweat. He left this thing here for you to manage while he went to the river."
"Right! Meizhou followed him as usual." said by another beastman.
Remembering Xuebao who hates being covered in dust and sweat understood that his friend must have gone to the river once again to take a bath. He just didn't know what Meizhou would do instead.
"Is Meizhou planning to join Xuebao in bathing? Xuebao would beat him up if he did think of doing it for real~" murmured Tuzi. Then he looked at the tribe priest once again and said, "Priest. Please excuse me as I still have few tasks to do so."
"Hoho~ go ahead, child. Things Baobao wants are collected before the rest of the meat would be used for tonight's dinner." said Anbao who left the place after saying what he wanted.
Meanwhile Warrior Lang whom he used as a meat shield finally spoke a word.
"Hey! Your name is Tuzi right? I heard that the tasty food last night was made by you. My name is Lang by the way. I am Meizhou's second in command. That Hotpot what is it? Is it delicious? Could I join you guys for a meal?" asked Lang.
"You want to join us for a meal with us? That... I don't mind but... I still need to ask Xuebao for permission. If he doesn't agree then... I'm sorry." said Tuzi.
"Well that's alright too. You can ask first." said Lang as he took the basket behind Tuzi. Helping him carry it. "I'll help you carry things. If he didn't agree then you can just make me some food in exchange." said Lang.
Feeling the pressure on his back disappears, Tuzi's expression brightens.
"Good! If Xuebao didn't agree. I will cook for you once. Please help me carry those firewood as well. Could you wait here for a while? I need to get a little meat from the dinosaur there first." said Tuzi with a sweet innocent smile on his face.
"O-Okay." responded Lang but for some reason his face is red as he shyly averted his gaze from Tuzi. 'W-What is this? My heart... it's beating too fast.' Thoughts of Lang after seeing Tuzi's smile.
Tuzi, this dense rabbit, didn't even notice Lang's blushing face as he walked towards the dinosaur and prepared some of it for hotpot. On the other hand the invisible System Yue who was tasked to look after his BL fan brother witnessed the whole thing.
[Wow~ his protagonist halo is stronger as it is. One of the Male leads got hooked in their first meeting. See how bright that man's blushing is. I wonder how he'll seduce the rest~]
