Chapter 196: Second Mount
Feeling winded Rocky coughed out some phlegm, before regaining his composure as he wiped off the small tears that had formed in his eyes.
"Boohoo, evil human, are you really planning on turning my cute little Chun into rabbit stew? Did you not just promise to take care of him? Was it all a lie?" Mama Chun asked, as she hugged her little cute baby tight against her bosom and shielded him from Rocky\'s evil gaze.
"I mean, I do plan on treating him right, but in case I\'m ever stuck inside a cave with no food or available resources, as a last ditch effort to save my own life, maybe, just maybe I drink little Chun\'s blood and eat his me–"
Before Rocky could even complete his sentence, Mama Chun slapped him across the face, making Rocky see stars dancing under his eyes.
The slap was so hard that Rocky felt disoriented for a full two minutes after it, as he was forced to open and close his eyes several times to make sure that he could still see properly.
"Booohooo, you\'re a despicable human! Just like the kind my ancestors warned me against.
The most despicable species! No wonder you follow Gemini, the most despicable gods.
Scamming, Cheating, Lying, creating a Harem these are the values that your God has imbued in you, so of course your words can\'t be trusted" Mama Chun said, as Rocky curled up into a ball on the floor before saying anything else.
"Indeed, I\'m a despicable villain that can\'t be trusted with your son, so I propose that you join him.
What do you say Mama Chun, will you become my soul familiar alongside your kid?" Rocky asked, as this time around Mama Chun did not react with instant anger and instead contemplated his offer seriously.
"Will you sign a contract of equals with me?" Mama Chun asked hopefully, however, Rocky was not interested in signing a contract of equals.
"No Mama Chun, I won\'t be signing a contract of equals with you, however, I will swear a soul oath to treat you both with the utmost kindness.
If I have money, I will feed the two of you first and myself later.
If your life is in danger, I\'ll put my own on the line to save you, if I can.
However, signing a contract of equals is not possible for me" Rocky clarified, as Mama Chun fell into deep contemplation hearing his words.
It didn\'t matter if the two signed a contract of equals or a master-slave contract if Rocky promised to treat them with love and respect, however, Mama Chun still felt that something was off about this deal.
She knew that as a warrior, she was much stronger compared to Rocky and could kill him with a snap of her fingers, however, because of the soul-bond that Rocky had formed with her beloved son, Mama Chun felt helpless in tackling this situation.
On one hand, she did not wish to leave little Chun alone with this despicable human as she worried about what sort of bunny it would grow up to be if left alone with that villain, however, on the other hand she did not wish to become a weak man\'s slave either.
However, as she looked at the two cute teeth hanging out of little Chun\'s face and its small sniveling black nose, Mama Chun knew instantly that she would rather live as a slave, than leave her kid alone, as in the end her maternal instincts trumped her personal pride.
"Fine, swear the soul-oath first and then I\'ll let you form a master-slave bond with me" Mama Chun said, as Rocky swore an oath upon Gemini to treat Mama and little Chun with kindness and to take care of them as best as he could.
Almost immediately after completing his oath, Rocky felt an invisible binding constricting his soul as the oath took effect.
Mama Chun, satisfied with Rocky\'s words allowed him to form a soul-bond with her as well, as she reluctantly let him circulate mana around her mana circuit and mark her soul with a slave brand.
"Boohoo! My husband will be so angry when he finds out that his wife is now another man\'s slave…. That too of a despicable and weak man.
How will I ever show him my snow white face and my black whiskers again?" Mama Chun said as she began crying once more in an outbreak that baffled Rocky.
Since she seemed really emotional Rocky did not disturb her, however, the scene of little Chun climbing her back and doing somersaults over his mother while she cried her heart out, made Rocky feel like laughing out loud, as he had to try hard to suppress it.
"Oh right, we should be on our way…. Mama, can you transform into a bear and carry me and Little Chun over your head?" Rocky asked once he noticed that Mama Chun had calmed down a bit, however, his question made Mama Chun burst out in tears once again.
"I\'m a mount now…. They have reduced me to the role of an ugly horse.." Mama Chun said, breaking out in tears once again as Rocky finally understood the fact that Mama Chun was a cry baby.
Regardless of the reason, she was the type that would cry over the smallest things and hence he needed to be careful about not triggering her much in the future. Continue the experience on m-vle-mpyr
Thankfully, she soon ran out of tears and transformed into a polar bear while allowing Rocky to climb over her back, with little Chun in his hands.
