Chapter 50 - 50: The Story of the Shadow Chaser Lizard_l



“Isn’t this Zhou Hao’s Shadow Chaser Lizard? It’s actually in your shop.”

Zhang Yun’s words abruptly interrupted Xu Ran’s speech.

“You know this Shadow Chaser Lizard?”

“Yeah, I can’t possibly overlook that scar near its left eye,” Zhang Yun pointed at the Shadow Chaser Lizard, “I know the Beast Master of this Shadow Chaser Lizard.”

Xu Ran blinked a couple of times.

Having been in contact with the Shadow Chaser Lizard for three days, he naturally knew about the distinct scar near the left eye.

Zhang Yun recognized it immediately, enough to prove that his recognition was without error.

An idea suddenly popped into Xu Ran’s head, who previously had been contemplating how to comfort the Shadow Chaser Lizard.

This customer knows the Beast Master of the Shadow Chaser Lizard!

That being the case, did he know anything about what happened between the Shadow Chaser Lizard and its Beast Master? At

“Speaking of which, this Shadow Chaser Lizard is quite pitiful,” Zhang Yun sighed before transferring the payment on his cellphone, “I am paying you 6666 yuan per day, a week’s fosterage fee in advance, please take good care of my Stone Armored Dragon from now on.”

Beast King Foster Shop, you are supposed to be the best in fostering!

“Okay.”

Xu Ran gratefully received the payment, but he left the proper arrangement of the new pet aside and went on to ask, “Mr. Zhang Yun, could you tell me about the situation of the Shadow Chaser Lizard and its Beast Master?”

“To tell you the truth, Beast Master of this Shadow Chaser Lizard did not leave any contact information. The lizard’s mood has been low since it arrived. I want to comfort it and cheer it up, but I have no idea about the details.”

Zhang Yun gave Xu Ran an approving look.

Voluntarily providing comfort to a foster pet with low spirits is not part of the foster care services. The fact that Xu Ran was willing to do so showed that he had made the right choice.

“Since you want to know, I’ll tell you briefly.” Zhang Yun glanced at the time. Since he didn’t have to go to the Beast King Foster Shop, he had some time to spare.

Then, Zhang Yun briefly explained to Xu Ran what he knew.

After the conversation, Xu Ran looked enlightened.

The problem between the Shadow Chaser Lizard and its Beast Master, Zhou Hao, was not complicated.

It all stemmed from the second pet that Zhou Hao had contracted a while ago.

Zhou Hao was a Pet Beast Combatant. His hobby and profession were to battle with other Beast Masters, constantly becoming stronger.

As Zhou Hao’s first pet, the Shadow Chaser Lizard was not weak, but it was also not among the top tier. After establishing a footing with the lizard as his partner, Zhou Hao paid a hefty price to acquire a stronger second pet, a Variegated Dragon Sparrow.

There are differences in strength among the Leader Species. The Variegated Dragon Sparrow was born with four Two-Star Skills and had a very high combat aptitude, making it one of the top Pet Beast Species.

However, the Variegated Dragon Sparrow had a small flaw.

It was likely to have a jealous nature.

Regrettably, Zhou Hao’s was indeed so.

Not long after they had formed the contract, the Variegated Dragon Sparrow showed hostility towards the Shadow Chaser Lizard, who was contracted earlier.

Furthermore, the Variegated Dragon Sparrow was extremely intelligent.

It did not provoke conflict but irritated the Shadow Chaser Lizard in various ways, making the Shadow Chaser Lizard attack it and act pitiful in front of Zhou Hao.

In other words, it was being manipulative.

After several instances, Zhou Hao realized that it was impossible for the two pets to coexist peacefully and had to make a choice to send one of them to long-term foster care.

And he chose to keep the Variegated Dragon Sparrow.

The reason was simple; the Variegated Dragon Sparrow had more potential and value than the Shadow Chaser Lizard and could bring greater help to his work.

So, the Shadow Chaser Lizard had to be the one to be sacrificed.

“That’s pretty much what happened,” Zhang Yun sighed. “When you have many pets, Beast Masters must find a way to mediate their relationships.

Encountering such a situation where it is impossible to reconcile, it is the most distressing.”

“Yeah.”

Xu Ran nodded, feeling more sympathy for the Shadow Chaser Lizard.

Now understanding the situation, he had some ideas on how to comfort it.

“Alright, it’s getting late and I need to go.” Zhang Yun checked the time and finally hugged the Stone Armored Dragon, “Stay here and be good. Wait for me to pick you up!”

“Roar-”

The Stone Armored Dragon rubbed its giant head against its Beast Master, waved its tail, and said goodbye.

With each backward glance, Zhang Yun eventually left the foster area.

“This area will be your living area from now on.” Xu Ran quickly set up a stack of pebbles in small hills for the Stone Armored Dragon.

“Roar!”

The Stone Armored Dragon’s eyes lit up and it skillfully buried itself in the pebbles.

The smooth pebbles wouldn’t wear out its stone scales too much, and this game of burying itself in the stone pile was the Stone Armored Dragon’s favorite.

“You play for a while, I’ll prepare your food.”

Xu Ran spoke to the stone pile, then turned and headed for the Preparation Room.

The Stone Armored Dragon needs to eat three meals a day, of which two meals can be shared with the other two pets, but it also needs an additional meal in the middle.

Xu Ran quickly prepared the meal and returned with the food bowl.

Smelling the enticing aroma that caused it to salivate, the Stone Armored Dragon quickly wriggled out of the pebbles and crawled to the food bowl.

It swallowed hard, feeling as if the food in front of it was a seductive fairy, making it unable to control its desire to taste it.

“Go ahead and eat. This whole bowl is yours.” Seeing the Stone Armored Dragon looking somewhat uneasy due to its recent arrival, Xu Ran said with a smile.

“Roar!”

Hearing Xu Ran’s words, the Stone Armored Dragon let go of its restraint and gobbled up the food in the bowl.

Feeling the wonderful taste and rich aroma of the food filling its mouth and nostrils, the Stone Armored Dragon’s eyes gradually blurred.

This taste…

In a trance, it seemed to see a beautiful female Stone Armored Dragon coming towards it, and the tingling sensation from the previous washing and protection returned again.

“Roar—”

[From…]

After clearing away the Stone Armored Dragon’s food bowl, Xu Ran turned to the Shadow Chaser Lizard hidden in the shadow of the Stone Forest.

“When Mr. Zhang Yun was talking about you just now, you were listening, weren’t you?” Xu Ran casually sat on the ground, looked at the shadow in front of him, and suddenly spoke.

The Shadow Chaser Lizard poked its head out of the shadow and looked at Xu Ran with complex eyes.

The moment Zhang Yun and the Stone Armored Dragon appeared, it recognized them.

Because of this, when Zhang Yun later talked about its own experiences, the Shadow Chaser Lizard quietly drew closer and heard their conversation.

It thought that its small movements had gone unnoticed, but Xu Ran had always been paying attention to it and easily spotted the signs.

“Now that I know the details of what happened to you in the past, we can have a proper talk, right?” Xu Ran smiled.

This time, the Shadow Chaser Lizard poked its head out instead of refusing to communicate as it had before, which was a good start.

As a result, he felt more confident about his plan to comfort it.

“Do you want to surpass that Variegated Dragon Sparrow?”
