Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

It turned out that on Chaosu Star, humans and pet beasts shared the same restroom. As expected, it was good to go out and experience the world, otherwise, she wouldn’t even know something like this… Qiao Sang felt like she had gained some new knowledge.

One minute later.

"Are you done?" Qiao Sang asked patiently.

No response came from inside the restroom.

Three minutes later, Qiao Sang, feeling a little anxious, asked, "Still not done?"

Still no response.

Five minutes later, Qiao Sang couldn't hold back anymore and knocked on the restroom door.

Qiao Sang suddenly realized something was off. She pushed the door fully open and saw that there was nothing inside, no sign of the pet beast that was supposedly using the restroom.

Looking up, she noticed a window, which was wide open.

Good grief. It had already left long ago, and she had been waiting all this time for nothing… Qiao Sang muttered to herself as she stepped into a restroom stall.

When Qiao Sang returned to the banquet hall, Yuna asked considerately.

"Did you get an upset stomach? Do you need me to call the family doctor to check on you?"

Qiao Sang declined.

"I'm fine. No need to trouble the doctor."

Yuna smiled.

"It's no trouble. My family's doctor has a Budbud that knows Healing, it's just a simple skill."

Qiao Sang’s mouth twitched.

"I really am fine."

Yuna was about to say more when Tang Yi, who was standing nearby, interjected,

"Qiao Sang has a pet beast known as 'Divine Healer' in our group. If she were really sick, she could just heal herself."

"Divine Healer?" Yuna became interested.

"What’s its name?"

"Ice Xilu." Qiao Sang replied.

Yuna looked at her curiously.

"Can you summon it? I’d like to see just how powerful its healing is."

Qiao Sang chuckled.

"But no one’s injured, how would you know how good its healing is?"

"That’s easy." Yuna said with a smile.

"The butler just reported that a wild pet beast has broken in. Once we catch it, we can make it suffer a little, and then you can have your Ice Xilu heal it. That way, I can see how effective it is."

Qiao Sang’s smile faded.

"That’s unnecessary. Maybe it just wandered in by accident."

Yuna was briefly taken aback, then let out a soft laugh.

"Are all people from Blue Star this kind to wild pet beasts?"

Qiao Sang and Tang Yi exchanged a glance but remained silent.

Sensing the shift in atmosphere, Yuna’s expression became a bit more serious.

"Wild pet beasts are usually dangerous. This area is private property, it shouldn’t have come in. Have you considered that we're holding a banquet? What if it hurt someone? Isn’t it only right to capture and teach it a lesson?"

For the first time, Qiao Sang clearly noticed the stark difference in attitudes toward pet beasts between Blue Star and Chaosu Star.

She wasn’t someone with a saintly heart and could understand how people on Chaosu Star thought.

After all, if she had originally transmigrated to Chaosu Star instead, worse still, if she had lived in the lower districts, where wild pet beasts roamed freely and occasionally attacked humans, she probably would’ve also associated pet beasts with danger at all times.

Different environments shaped different mindsets. She had always understood this.

She couldn’t simply say, "It hasn’t hurt anyone yet." because she had no idea what kind of pet beast had intruded or what its temperament was.

If it did harm someone, it would be too late to regret it.

But because she had first arrived in Blue Star, Yuna’s intentions, catching the wild pet beast just to torment it, felt wrong to her. She couldn’t stand by as a spectator and watch it be abused simply for wandering in.

After some thought, Qiao Sang asked, "Isn’t this a place where humans and wild pet beasts coexist? Do wild pet beasts even recognize private property? I heard that on Chaosu Star, it’s common to wake up and find a pet beast suddenly appearing beside you."

Yuna chuckled again.

"Yes, coexistence is true, but what you're describing only happens in the middle and lower districts. In the upper districts, wild pet beasts are strictly managed. If a wild pet beast is deemed dangerous, it’s either sent to the lower districts or…"

She trailed off, her smile turning meaningful.

"As for private property, wild pet beasts in the upper districts don’t just randomly enter human residences. If they did, they wouldn’t have been allowed to stay in the first place."

Tang Yi was puzzled.

"Isn’t the lower district mostly ordinary people? Wouldn’t sending dangerous wild pet beasts there make things worse?"

"There’s no other choice." Yuna said casually, taking the champagne offered by a waiter.

"Wild pet beasts are everywhere on Chaosu Star, and some of them are incredibly powerful. If we completely exterminated them, we humans would also suffer.

"Even the more intelligent wild pet beasts understand this. That’s why the lower districts aren’t as dangerous as you might think. High-level wild pet beasts regulate the lower-level ones, so large-scale attacks on humans don’t really happen."

Ordinary people and low-level pet beasts had no say in the matter at all. As expected, on Chaosu Star, strength determined everything… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly and returned to the main issue.

"You assumed that people from Blue Star are kinder to pet beasts, so you should also consider that Blue Star pet beasts wouldn’t just stand by and watch one of their own be tormented, especially just to show off their healing abilities."

Yuna paused, then asked, "Even if you told them to do it, they wouldn’t obey?"

Qiao Sang met Yuna’s gaze calmly.

"I don’t force them to do things they don’t want to do."

"Xun Xun!"

Nearby, the invisible Little Treasure, who had been snacking, nodded in agreement. But suddenly, he fell into deep thought.

School… did that count as forcing?

No one noticed the small purple head peeking out from behind a curtain, quietly observing everything.

Yuna contemplated for a few seconds before quickly smiling again.

"I see."

If Qiao Sang had been just an ordinary exchange student, Yuna would have ended the conversation over their differing views.

But this girl’s talent was absolutely extraordinary. Even though she wasn’t from Chaosu Star, she had still caught the attention of the school board. They would be interacting for an entire semester, Yuna had to consider her perspective.

Just then, the banquet hall lights brightened.

"They decided so quickly?" Yuna looked at Felice, who had taken the stage, in surprise.

"What kind of pet beast is that?" Qiao Sang asked.

Her gaze also landed on the stage, but she was focused on the pet beast.

Before Yuna could answer, Tang Yi, who had been keeping an eye on the proceedings, spoke up first.

"It’s a Tear Bud. A Fairy-type pet beast with the abilities 'Natural Recovery' and 'Shared Tears.'"

Natural Recovery, when a pet beast leaves battle, its status ailments gradually heal… The relevant information surfaced in Qiao Sang’s mind. She asked, "What’s the 'Shared Tears' trait?"

She hadn’t come across it in the books she had read.

"When a pet beast with this trait cries, everyone within a certain range is emotionally affected and feels like crying too." Yuna explained.

What a useless trait… Qiao Sang couldn't help but think.
