Primitive Once Again - Chapter 36

Perhaps due to Eim’s story, Black and White finally had a rare opportunity to relax their vigilance. Their hearts brimmed with longing for their dad and love for their cubs, as they thought about how fortunate they were to have each other.

Next to the fire, the entire family snuggled together, with the cubs snoozing soundly in the warmth.

“–Wake up! Wake up!” In his dream, someone was shouting, but Black wanted to sleep a little longer.

He thought of his dad. When Dad was still around, he would also wake them up in this manner. Then when Dad left, he became the earliest to wake up, and there was no longer anyone to wake him up.

This place was too warm, and made him feel like sleeping more…

Wait– Warm?!

Black sat up vigorously.

He felt like he had thrown something off, and when he turned to look, Black saw Sita and a bunch of other people splayed across the ground around him.

There was a gap in the walls of the nest, and through that, Black could see the bright sky outside, so he solemnly said, “It’s getting late, you guys should not laze in bed.”

Sita rubbed her waist, face ashen as she sat up.

“We woke up long ago! You bunch of slackers slept like the dead, and wouldn’t wake no matter how much we called. We tried dragging you together, but you actually tossed us away!”

These damned rabbits, what did they eat to grow so heavy?!

It wasn’t that Sita didn’t find it strange, but her anger was more intense.

“Yah?” Meng Jiuzhao stuck his head out from Black’s arms, tugging on Black’s clothes to signal that he was hungry.

“Goodness! What is this! You didn’t tell me that you brought a cub with you!” Sita’s attention was completely attracted to Meng Jiuzhao.

On this brutal continent, cubs were undoubtedly precious. The Vash tribe was a young tribe, residing in the coldest and harshest area on this continent. Here, it was hard for cubs and elderly to survive, so their tribe was mainly made up of the survivors of each species who decided to live together.

And hence, the precious cub, Meng Jiuzhao, was immediately surrounded by the Vash Tribe:

Seeing his black, slightly curly hair, his big eyes wet with tears as he just awoke, and his little[1] body softly lying on Black’s chest…

Sita was hooked.

“How cute! Such a cute cub must definitely be a male (囧)!” Before Sita could stretch out her hand, the person who first bullied Eim yesterday jumped to her feet, jumping as she stretched out her paw towards Black, before having it smacked away by vigilant Black.

Meng Jiuzhao rubbed away his tears with his little hands, smacking his lips.

He didn’t have the intention of selling meng, but in his current state[2], whatever action he did would probably have such an effect.

“Here! Here! Give this to the cub! This is jerky made from a Tata beast that I’ve been saving!” A female tigerman ransacked a corner for a long time, before retrieving some jerky from who knew where.

“Huh?! Amy, you actually had food saved up? Didn’t you say long ago that there wasn’t any jerky left?” Another female yelled.

“I didn’t have any for you to eat, but of course there was some left for cubs!”

“Don’t eat her jerky! If you want to eat something, eat mine! This is dried fruit made from the sweetest Ulla fruit picked in the autumn! Babies have to eat more fruits!” Another female from the lion species dominantly squeezed her large body in, just for the sake of stuffing two pieces of short and pitiful looking dried fruits into Meng Jiuzhao’s little hand.

“You people with no common sense should just go away! Cubs of this age should have some rice~ gruel~!” With a roar, Sita’s imposing figure appeared at the entrance of the nest. She carried a steaming hot pot of 1 meter diameter, pushing away all her other competitors, appearing before the stunned Black.

“Cubs should drink rice gruel! This was what my Ma said! Only by drinking rice gruel everyday, can he grow as strong as me!” Finally, for the sake of winning the right to feed the cub, Sita let go of her insistence and finally used her most taboo word.[3]

Looking at Sita’s figure, Black and White exchanged glances, before finally choosing Sita’s big pot.

Translator has something to say:

Hahaha Meng Jiuzhao is gonna be so spoiled by all these big sisters~
