Elvis patted Hede on the head. “Eldest, you start.”
Hede nodded, whereby Jialue and Kanwu both took two steps back with eager anticipation.
Hede then morphed into human form right before Gu Mengmeng’s eyes.
But…
His height…
Gu Mengmeng sat straight up in surprise. Exuding happiness, she continued gazing at this dashing teenage, who had shed his earlier childishness. Hede was now like Chixuan, a youth of about 18 years of age.
Elvis threw a piece of fur at Hede, who tied it around his waist to form a simple skirt. He took two steps forward. “Mother, I have evolved into a first-level beast.”
Gu Mengmeng held Hede’s face with both hands, nearly crying with joy.
Her son had grown up. Even without royal clothing, he still looked like an elegant prince. His eyes were deep and profound, while his chiseled features portrayed a toughness without being overly harsh. He looked like the kind of man whom one would find reliable and trustworthy at one glance.
“Congratulations my baby.” Hede smiled and stepped to the side.
Jialue then stepped forward and placed his front paws on Gu Mengmeng’s knees. He gradually morphed into human form, with one knee on the ground and both hands on Gu Mengmeng’s thighs. He looked up at Gu Mengmeng with a faint smile, which was perfect from all angles. His eyes looked very much like Gu Mengmeng’s, and reflected an amber glow.
Jialue was different from Hede. Even if he wasn’t purposely smiling so cheekily, he still exuded a “bad boy” vibe through and through.
Hmm…
He looked like the kind of guy who would go through life unaffected by ordinary mortals. Faced with the romantic confessions of a sweet, demure girl, he would take her love letter with a smile and say, “You are such an innocent girl, why taint yourself with someone like me?”
He clearly had an open, sunny face, but no one would believe he was truly harmless.
If he was in a school, he would probably become public enemy number one to the entire male cohort.
“Mother, I have also evolved into a first-level beast…”
Gu Mengmeng stroked his head with a smile. “Mmm, my son is so handsome.”
Elvis also threw a piece of fur to Jialue, who asked as he wrapped it around himself, “Who is more handsome? Chixuan or I?”
Gu Mengmeng chuckled. “You are all handsome. My sons are equally handsome.”
Jialue refused to buy that line. He pouted. “Forget it. I won’t force mother to lie. Chixuan’s is undeniably blessed in the looks department. If we weren’t in the same litter, I would have suspected that he is Daddy Lea’s son.”
Elvis’ face darkened. Did he mean Lea was more handsome than him?
Jialue’s gaze drifted over to Elvis. He smiled in satisfaction at Elvis’ black face.
After all, he would have to move out after coming of age. He would not have much chances left to taunt Elvis.
Jialue then stepped back and let Kanwu take his place.
Kanwu shook the fur on his body before slowly morphing into human form.
He was half a head taller than both his older brothers, and was nearly two meters in height. He was almost as tall as Elvis.
He was the complete opposite of Hede, with his thick, straight eyebrows on a pronounced brow ridge. He was clearly still a youth but already exuded the aura of a hero.
It must be said that even though the two of them were always at loggerheads—based on appearance alone—Kanwu looked the most like Elvis.
Before Elvis could toss him a piece of fur, Kanwu was already pulling one around his waist. He smiled. “Mother, we have all evolved into first-level beasts. From now on, we can better protect you.”
