“Ji?”
“Wait here for me, I’m going to check out what that is.”
Feng Yuan narrowed his eyes and intended to place Xiao Ji on the table, but Xiao Ji hugged Feng Yuan’s hand tightly.
Seeing Xiao Ji wanted to follow him, Feng Yuan shook his head and put Xiao Ji on top of his head, saying,
“Then don’t move around, okay?
If you get wet, don’t blame me for making you take another bath.”
“Ji!”
Carrying Xiao Ji out of the dorm, Feng Yuan carefully navigated through puddles on the ground.
After avoiding several, he became a bit annoyed and touched Xiao Ji squatting on top of his head, saying,
“Xiao Ji, lend me your Wind Attribute power.”
“Ji?”
Using the Wind Attribute power transferred from Xiao Ji, Feng Yuan released a water-repelling technique at his feet.
Seeing that the technique barely managed to push away the water, Feng Yuan poked Xiao Ji and said,
“Your Wind Attribute power isn’t up to par—others can use their water-repelling techniques as umbrellas.”
“Ji!”
Feng Yuan stroked Xiao Ji and, holding an umbrella, walked to the peculiar spot in the grove.
There, he saw a half-human tall Traveler’s Owl with white feathers laying on the ground.
Its wet feathers were tightly stuck to its body, and noticing a small bag on the owl’s back, Feng Yuan mumbled to himself in confusion,
“A Traveler’s Owl?
How did this end up here?”
“Ji?”
A bit puzzled, Feng Yuan handed the umbrella to the Dreaming Dragon Baby that had followed him out and said,
“Hold this for me.”
“Ao?”
The Dreaming Dragon Baby, looking bewildered, wrapped its tail around the handle of the umbrella to hold it up for Feng Yuan.
After carefully examining the Traveler’s Owl, Feng Yuan stood up, took the umbrella from the tail of the Dreaming Dragon Baby, sighed, and after comparing the size of the Dreaming Dragon Baby to the Traveler’s Owl said,
“You can’t carry it, can you?”
“Ao?!”
The Dreaming Dragon Baby looked at the immensely large Traveler’s Owl, shook its head frantically and floated behind Feng Yuan to hide.
Feng Yuan shook his head, bent down to try and pick up the Traveler’s Owl, and suddenly remembering something, took out his cell phone from his pocket and handed it to Xiao Ji, saying,
“Hold this for me.
Don’t get it wet.”
“Ji~”
“Dreaming Dragon Baby~ come here for a moment~”
“Ao?”
“Help me hold the umbrella~”
“Ao…”
The Dreaming Dragon Baby, grudgingly extending its tail to grab the umbrella from Feng Yuan’s hand, glared at Feng Yuan and snorted a few puffs of white air from its nostrils.
As Feng Yuan bent down to pick up the Traveler’s Owl, he said,
“Alright~ as a reward for going back, I’ll give you a few pieces of candy, okay~”
“Ao~”
“Ji!”
“Xiao Ji, you’ll get some too~”
“Ji~”
After a struggle, Feng Yuan finally brought the Traveler’s Owl back to the dorm.
Looking at his soaked clothes, he took a bag out of the cabinet and handed it to the Dreaming Dragon Baby, saying,
“You two share it, don’t finish it all.”
“Ao~”
“Ji!”
Seeing the two little ones start to squabble again, Feng Yuan shook his head and, looking at the still-unconscious Traveler’s Owl, decided to drag it to the bathroom.
While Feng Yuan was helping to clean the Traveler’s Owl with warm water, the sound of the door opening echoed through the dorm.
Feng Yuan shouted to the person outside,
“Qi Chen, help me ask Teacher Yan for leave!”
“What’s wrong with you again?”
“Nothing serious, may be a bit late for class.”
“Why are you taking a shower so early in the morning?”
Feng Yuan casually opened the door and, upon seeing Feng Yuan wearing only underwear and washing the Traveler’s Owl, Qi Chen rubbed his temples and said resignedly,
“Have you gone and picked up another owl?”
“It was out by the grove, I don’t know what happened, but it was collapsed there.”
“So, you’re planning to bring it to Teacher Orlina?”
“Yeah.”
“Okay, I’ll let Teacher Yan know, but you better hurry up and finish.”
“Alright~”
After closing the door, Feng Yuan continued to clean the Traveler’s Owl.
When he finally managed to dry its feathers and saw that it was still unconscious, Feng Yuan sighed, walked over to the table, snatched the bag of candy, and looking at the almost empty bag, he scolded the two little creatures, saying,
“You two, didn’t I tell you to only eat a little?”
“Chirp~”
“Proud~”
“All right, I’m going to make a trip to the infirmary.
Are you guys coming with me?”
“Proud?!”
The Dreaming Dragon Baby floated up to the top bunk and poked its head out to glance at Feng Yuan, while Najia waved her hand at Feng Yuan and shook her head.
Feng Yuan picked up Xiao Ji and placed it on his head, saying
“Okay, then you guys rest in the dorm.
Don’t run around in the heavy rain outside, and Najia, help me keep an eye on the Dreaming Dragon Baby so it doesn’t get into mischief, especially stealing snacks.”
“Gina~”
“Did you pick up another weird thing and bring it back?”
Seeing Feng Yuan carrying a big lump of white stuff into the room, Orlina teased, then stood up and walked over to the sickbed.
After looking at the Traveler’s Owl that Feng Yuan placed on the bed, she stroked her chin and thought for a moment before saying
“Is this a Traveler’s Owl?
Where did you pick it up from?”
“Just next to our dorm, in the little grove.
I’ll leave it with you, teacher, I’m off~”
“Wait.”
Feng Yuan turned around, looking puzzled at Orlina, who casually picked up a physical examination form and handed it to Feng Yuan, saying
“You might as well get these checks done while you’re here.”
“Uh…
this is?”
“To give someone an explanation.
Of course, you can choose not to if you don’t want to.”
Scratching his head, Feng Yuan took the examination form and said
“Do it myself?”
“I need to tend to the Traveler’s Owl.
You can handle it yourself, and don’t tell me you don’t know how to use those devices; I’ve seen you use them more proficiently than I do.”
Seeing Orlina staring at him, Feng Yuan chuckled, scratching his head as he began to look through the instruments and start the physical examination according to the checklist.
Orlina watched with a snicker as Feng Yuan examined himself with a disgruntled look, and then she helped check the Traveler’s Owl.
After a while, she looked at the owl’s examination report with surprise and said
“Isn’t this guy the legendary owl from the tales?”
“The legendary owl?”
Taking a blood sample, Feng Yuan turned with some confusion to look at Orlina, who hesitated for a moment before tossing the report to him, saying
“Take a look for yourself.
I believe you’ll understand.”
After scanning the report, Feng Yuan said with a puzzled tone,
“No signs of attack?
Then how did it faint?”
“Bumped into a tree, maybe…”
“Bumped…
into a tree?”
Orlina turned her head and glanced at the owl, whose face was tinged with red, and pointed to her forehead, saying
“It seems it really is that owl.”
“Eh?
You were faking a faint?”
“Whoo?!”
Watching the Traveler’s Owl leap up agilely, only to bump into the ceiling and fall straight down, Feng Yuan covered his forehead and said
“Why does this owl seem a bit dumb…”
“Whoo!”
“After all, it’s the legendary Traveler’s Owl…”
Orlina looked disdainfully at the owl trying to bury its head in its wings and pretend to be an ostrich.
Feng Yuan walked over and gently stroked the feathers of the Traveler’s Owl, asking
“Is it famous?”
“Sort of.
It’s the clumsy Traveler’s Owl that showed up in Maomu City at some point, always bumbling and fumbling.
It’s said that even the police get a headache when they see it.”
“I can understand…
It probably faints often due to various bizarre accidents, right?”
“Pretty much.”
“Then why hasn’t anyone taken it in?
Although the Traveler’s Owl isn’t particularly rare as a Spirit Beast, it’s still uncommon, isn’t it?
And being from the Mystic Series, it’s not weak after it evolves.”
“Whoo!”
As the Traveler’s Owl maintained its position with its head buried in its wings and backed off a few steps, tumbling down from the sickbed, Orlina touched her forehead and said
“Firstly, it’s too clumsy.
Some people have tried giving it all sorts of books, but it never understood any of them.
Plus, it seems unwilling to accept a Beast Tamer’s contract, so it has been wandering around Maomu City.”
“Whoo…”
Feng Yuan, somewhat puzzled, helped the Traveler’s Owl up and straightened its feathers, saying
“That can’t be right, can it?
In that case, wouldn’t it be unable to evolve?”
“Whoo…”
“Chirp!”
Seeing Feng Yuan patting the Traveler’s Owl on the head, Xiao Ji seemed to sense something and started to complain loudly at Feng Yuan.
