Number One Lazy Merchant of the Beast World

Ch4 - Lonely Little Leopard

The tired little leopard once again went back to the comfortable and warm position under the black dragon's arm, closing his eyes to sleep. The weight of the black dragon's wide palm on his back was surprisingly reassuring. He felt that has hadn't slept so safely in a long time.

The little leopard's ears shook in his sleep and he vaguely saw some images. It was as if the things he experienced were blurred by a layer of yarn.

In this case, many people came and went around him and vague words entered his ears.

"Duke, the animal nucleus in the child's head is much bigger than his kin. This suppresses his brain and causes natural deficiencies in his consciousness. He will become an animal and even the highest-grade pure energy stone can't cure him. In the future, he will probably maintain his juvenile state for a long time. Even if he grows up, his mental state will be lacking."

After this, the little leopard was taken away by an intelligent robot housekeeper. He lived in a house and everything was taken care of by this intelligent housekeeper. He didn't see anyone for a long time and the housekeeper talked to him regularly, teaching him common sense. The process was naturally a one-sided indoctrination. Then he and the robot housekeeper spent a long time in a cool and inorganic room.

Until one day, the intelligent housekeeper received instructions to take the little leopard out of the house they had lived in for so long and board a small aircraft. In the beginning, the destination of the aircraft was set to the imperial capital. Somehow, the intelligent housekeeper suddenly modified the destination halfway through. It changed to this planet and they landed here. The housekeeper left him here, leaving him with lots of nutrient packs in the cracks between rocks.

The quiet and mechanical voice spoke to the little leopard. "The imperial capital is dangerous and I can't take you there. You will have to live on your own in the future."

Then the intelligent housekeeper stretched out his robotic arms and touched the leopard's head before piloting the aircraft away.

The lonely little leopard wandered around this strange place, lost his way, rolled down from a high place and his head slammed into the tree that contained the huge bird's nest. The impact moved the beast nucleus in his head, forcing the ignorant little leopard to break through his limits and his consciousness suddenly became clear...

At this time, the sleeping little leopard woke up. He slowly opened his eyes and raised his head from the arm of the black dragon. The clear-headed leopard stared at the small fire before covering his face with a paw and burying his head in it.

He couldn't believe that in the many years after his rebirth, he had been a stupid little leopard. For a moment, the sorrowful leopard forgot that his claws were covered with ash for digging at the burned ground before and the leopard's face became black.

The little leopard sighed as he gazed at the gradually whitening sky. He moved out of the black dragon man's arm, took brisk steps and ran towards the huge stone crack in his memories. The distance wasn't too close. He didn't know how stupid he was at the time to wander so far.

Rong Mingshi took some time and finally arrived at the location. He watched the nutrient packs piled up in the crack in a satisfied manner. With these things, he probably didn't need to work hard to hunt any prey for a long time. Rong Mingshi opened his mouth, picked up a few bags, flicked his tail and returned the way he came.

The little leopard went back and forth. As he was halfway there, he heard some sounds from the air. He looked up and saw an aircraft approaching his direction in the sky. Rong Mingshi was stunned for a while and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. This wasn't the robot housekeeper returning, right?
