Big flower, beautiful leaves, blue color!
"Blue Moon Weed!"
Yulian's pupils constricted, and his hand unconsciously tightened.
"Squeak!"
"Squeak!"
A painful shriek instantly came from behind Yulian.
"Tap——"
"Tap——"
"It's not Blue Moon Weed~"
Fern gently walked forward and approached Yulian.
Yulian could even smell the elegant fragrance on Fern.
"I just thought it looked very similar to Blue Moon Weed, so I brought it to find Mr. Yulian."
Fern carefully handed the blue flower she was holding to Yulian.
Yulian took out the portrait Frieren had given him, examined and compared it carefully, then gently nodded.
Although it was very similar, unfortunately... it really wasn't.
"Mr. Yulian, is there something behind you?"
Seeing that Yulian had finished examining it, Fern gently sighed, placed the blue flower beside her, and then asked.
"It sounded like there was a strange cry behind you just now, right?"
Fern's beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly.
She seemed to be thinking about the source of this familiar yet strange sound.
"Well, there shouldn't be, right?"
"Why didn't I hear anything?"
Yulian chuckled nervously, telling a lie.
"Really?"
Fern's eyes stared at Yulian's right hand hidden behind him.
"Mr. Yulian?"
"Squeak!"
The Seed Eater Rat shrieked desperately, as if it had found a savior.
Now Yulian could no longer hide it, so he obediently extended his right hand from behind him to the front.
Revealing the mischievous fellow he had caught, a gray-blue squirrel-like creature—the Seed Eater Rat.
"Little squirrel!"
Fern's black eyes met the Seed Eater Rat's, and her purple eyes narrowed slightly.
"It's a Seed Eater Rat, a harmful animal that eats seeds..."
Yulian immediately corrected her.
Little girls Fern's age are the most sympathetic!
Especially when faced with such a cute little thing, they can't help but like it!
But thinking of the Seed Eater Rat's actions just now, Yulian secretly gritted his teeth.
He absolutely couldn't let Fern protect this little thing!
"So cute!"
Fern's mouth slightly parted, and her eyes lit up.
She really liked it!
"It's a harmful animal!"
Yulian struggled one last time.
"Mr. Yulian, why did you catch it?"
Fern gently extended her hand towards the Seed Eater Rat.
You didn't listen to me at all, did you!
Yulian reluctantly handed the Seed Eater Rat over to Fern.
"It's a harmful animal!"
"Its nature is stubborn, and just now it even..."
Attacked him while he was being lazy under the tree?
Yulian was sweating profusely, almost letting it slip.
"Even what?"
While teasing the docile little squirrel sitting in her hand, Fern asked Yulian curiously.
"Squeak?"
The Seed Eater Rat also let out a questioning squeak at the opportune moment, showing its innocence and cuteness.
She really liked it!
Fern was completely smitten, gently stroking the soft fur on the Seed Eater Rat's body, a look of great satisfaction on her face.
"It's nothing."
Yulian smiled faintly, pursing his lips.
While Fern's attention was on the Seed Eater Rat, Yulian again revealed a murderous gaze, staring fixedly at the Seed Eater Rat.
Heh heh... you'd better not give me a chance...
Braised little squirrel, halal little squirrel, deep-fried little squirrel...
"Fern, Yulian."
A call came from the distant horizon, and in almost the blink of an eye, Frieren landed beside the two of them.
"Fern, what are you doing?"
Frieren looked at Fern, who was playing with the Seed Eater Rat in her hand, with a hint of seriousness in her expression.
"Mistress Frieren..."
Fern guiltily hid the Seed Eater Rat behind her and lowered her head.
It was comparable to Yulian's actions earlier.
"Let me see."
Frieren walked forward slowly, but then seemed to feel she was being a bit forceful and reassured Fern.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything."
Although Fern was a little reluctant, she softly agreed in a low voice, then brought the hidden Seed Eater Rat to the front.
"Chirp chirp~"
Another beautiful older sister!
The Seed Eater Rat clearly understood who was in charge here, and immediately curled its little tail and started acting cute towards Frieren.
Unfortunately, Frieren wasn't swayed by this.
"Seed Eater Rat."
Just wait to die!
Yulian chuckled inwardly.
Wait until Frieren lets Fern release you, I'll chase you to the ends of the earth and braise you!
"So you like these things."
Frieren stroked her chin thoughtfully.
Yulian, on the other hand, was dumbfounded.
No way, Sis!
What about releasing it into the Forest as agreed, and not allowing pets!
And that phrase about harmful animals being eaten by you!
Yulian looked at Frieren indignantly.
The latter just said faintly.
"Perhaps, it might just come in handy."
"Mistress Frieren!"
Seeing Frieren show a faint smile, Fern also felt a sense of relief.
That's great!
"However..."
The next second, Fern asked Frieren with some doubt.
"What do you mean by coming in handy?"
"It is said that Seed Eater Rats bury their food in safe places free from external enemies..."
Frieren smiled slightly.
"If it helps, it seems finding Blue Moon Weed will become much easier."
"So that's how it is!"
Fern suddenly understood.
She looked at the little squirrel in her hand with even more fondness!
Otherwise, who knows how long they would have to search aimlessly like this to find it!
"Now the only problem is not knowing how to explain the situation clearly to it."
Frieren was a little annoyed, while Yulian quietly glanced at the closely related species brought by Fern.
Yes, a closely related species.
A closely related species whose flowers already looked ninety percent similar to the Blue Moon Weed flowers, could basically substitute for Blue Moon Weed seeds in the search for Blue Moon Weed.
However, should he say it or not?
Yulian glanced at the Seed Eater Rat with some hesitation.
If I say it, I can't braise you. If I don't say it, I probably still can't braise you... Hmm...
The few people who had just made a slight breakthrough thus fell into silence.
"Chirp chirp."
It seemed to sense Yulian's murderous gaze.
After hesitating for a few seconds, the Seed Eater Rat gently jumped from Fern's hand, came to the small blue flower of the Blue Moon Weed closely related species, and chirped twice curiously.
"Can you understand what we're saying?"
Frieren's beautiful green eyes couldn't help but show a trace of surprise.
However, it was destined that she was just overthinking.
"Chirp chirp?"
The Seed Eater Rat clearly didn't understand what the white-haired older sister in front of it was saying, and scratched its head with some confusion.
Seeing this, Fern tried to carefully approach the Seed Eater Rat. Only after seeing that the Seed Eater Rat was not scared away did Fern carefully start gesturing.
"You!"
"Can help us..."
"Find this?"
Fern pointed her finger at the Seed Eater Rat, then pointed at herself, and finally pointed at the small blue flower.
Her voice was gentle, her movements careful, the whole process filled with patience and the romantic innocence unique to a child.
"Chirp chirp!"
The Seed Eater Rat clearly understood. After digging out a seed from the soil under the small blue flower and sniffing it a few times, it started running quickly towards the depths of the Forest!
"Mistress Frieren!"
Fern was a little excited.
Frieren also nodded, a smile appearing on her face.
"Let's follow!"
After speaking, the two immediately started running excitedly.
Only Yulian sighed slightly before starting to move.
What a pity...
