The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 168 The Ice Man's Form
A plump white cat who was sleeping soundly on the floor a moment ago suddenly rolled to the side before suddenly rising to his feet. It then glared towards where Jiu Shen was. It could feel an extremely strong presence in this direction which greatly shocked him, but when it saw Jiu Shen's face, it revealed a human-like expression that was dumbfounded.
Swoosh's.
A streak of white light moved towards Jiu Shen, and an adorable fat cat appeared in his sight. This was none other than Ice, the lazy cat that Jiu Shen had left here to protect the children secretly.
“Scented man, why do you look different now? Bizarrely. This is really weird. Aren't you just a Saint realm expert of rank 9? Could it be .. Impossible! You have just left for a few days and you “Have become an expert of the Nascent God Realm?! Impossible! I must be dreaming! Yeah, true! This must be a dream! Meeow!” The voice of Ice lolita resounded within Jiu Shen's head.
Jiu Shen ignored his words as he smiled and hit the fat cat's head. “Cats idlers.” He muttered.
Smacked.
Ow hell! Ow hell! Meow!
Ice put on a hostile look as she grabbed her large, hairy head with both of her front paws. Of course, he was not really injured since he was already a Nascent Divine Realm beast. He only felt treated like a child by Jiu Shen, so he was instantly enraged.
“Scent man! Don't treat this cute cat like a kid! I am over a hundred years old! Hmph! Meow!” The ice crossed its front claws on its bulging belly as it stood in front of Jiu Shen like a human.
Over a hundred years? Jiu Shen chuckled in his heart as he tried to remember his age, but to no avail. He even forgot when he stopped counting how old he was. If he celebrated his birthday, he might even fill the whole world with candles and light them. That would be fun…
With a look of disdain, Jiu Shen smiled at Ice while looking at her large belly. “Lazy fat bases are okay other than drinking milk and sleeping all day. Look at your stomach, it's already huge. Do you want to be a pig?”
Ice's cat's face darkened as she tried to look at her stomach, but she couldn't even look down anymore due to her excessive fat. His expression revealed a human-like vexation when he realized this, and he could not help but glance at Jiu Shen pitifully. “Scent man! Why did I become this fat after only a few months?! Huhuh! I don't want to be a fat pig! Meow!”
Jiu Shen almost laughed out loud when he saw the fat cat's cute appearance. “Aren't you the descendant of the Nascent God Realm's god beast? Try changing it in your human form and see if you are still fat like now.”
The fat cat's eyes lit up and he immediately raised his thumb to Jiu Shen with his front paws. “Really! Why didn't I think of that? You still have brains for stinky humans! Meow!”
After saying those words, Ice's figure slowly turned into a little girl with short white hair. She looked like a little girl at the age of six with a baby face and short, fat limbs. If he stood in front of Jiu Shen, he would only be knee-high.
Ice stretched her four limbs as she familiarized herself with her human form, and she was greatly shocked when she realized that she could now see her stomach. Although her limbs were slightly fat, at least she was now able to move normally unlike in her cat form.
“Hahaha! I can see my stomach! Oi! Smelly man, look! I can see my stomach! Not that big! Meow!” Ice was overjoyed by his discovery and he couldn't help but grab Jiu Shen's arm to get his attention. Her sweet smile almost reached her ears as she burst into laughter.
Jiu Shen's face turned soft as he rubbed Ice's small head. “Come back to the store. I'll let you drink milk.” He said with a smile.
Upon hearing his words, Ice's expression lit up and he immediately nodded his head with a hopeful look. “Hehehe! I want three bowls of good milk! Meow!”
Jiu Shen smiled as she hugged the lolita in her hand before she teleported with her back inside her shop.
Jiu Shen's sudden appearance inside the store shocked the customers, and they inevitably threw a series of curious glances towards the cute little lolita in Jiu Shen's arms.
What a beautiful and adorable little girl! Is she the daughter of Wine Master Jiu? Thinking of that, everyone's eyes widened as they stared at the duo who suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Even Hestia and Theia had doubtful expressions on their faces as they stared at Jiu Shen and the little girl in his arms.
“Teacher, this?” Hestia asked as she looked at Jiu Shen in confusion.
“Do not ask much. Just give me a glass and fill it with milk.” Jiu Shen said as he ruffled Hestia's hair.
Uh!
Hestia covered her head as she looked at Jiu Shen in surprise. It seemed like there was something different with Jiu Shen and she looked more cheerful than usual, but when she heard that she wanted a glass of milk, it was more cheerful, he glanced at the young girl with the white-haired head on his arm with a suspicious look.
Theia who was standing near the entrance of the store was also curious, but she did not bother to ask Jiu Shen. He believed that he would explain it to them at the right time. Moreover, he could feel the familiar aura of the little girl.. “Could it be him. That cat must be a descendant of a god beast. The creature that was already in the Nascent God Realm at the time of his birth.” He muttered with a conscious expression.
Theia has a bit of information in her memory, and it has to relate to her past life. Suddenly, he saw a scene that always flashed across his head.
A lonely silhouette with a short sword tied behind his back as he gave a lecture on sword comprehension. “I cannot remember his name... Who is he?”
