A cloud of dirt and smoke covered the two spirits, Mo Qiang who had her eyes squinted had a hard time focusing on the two spirits that she had summoned just now, it was after a long time, that she was able to see the two spirits that were standing in front of her.
The chinchilla that was squatting on the ground was gone and in his place was standing a young boy with a slender body that resembled a young boy of ten to twelve years, two ears that were similar to that of a chinchilla were twitching on top of his grey hair. He was wearing a small white crop top with a blue collar and matching blue pants with delicate feet and a tail that had two bells attached to the long tail that was fluffy and white.
Next to him was a young girl who looked like she was five years old, her hair was pure white and her violet eyes flickered uneasily. She was wearing a pink and violet poncho with a pink skirt and white stockings, her white hair tied in two plaits. Her small tail was twitching behind her while her brown horns shone even under the dim lighting.
" Wow, you are…." The two spirits were standing in front of her with their chests puffed out waiting to be praised but then they heard Mo Qiang say, " You all are really cute."
They are cute? Thats it?
Chichi who was older than Ya Ya immediately stomped his feet in frustration and said, " We are not only cute but there are a lot of things that we can do!"
" That…That is right!" Ya Ya chimed in with her tears brimming in her small little grape-like eyes. She held Chi Chi's sleeves looking really aggrieved even Little Jiao who thought that the two were too cute for doing heavy work on the farm could not withstand such a cute attack.
She rushed ahead and slapped Mo Qiang on the face and said angrily, " What is with you? How can you be so hard on these little children? Be a bit nice to them!"
Mo Qiang rubbed the spot where Little Jiao slapped her and frowned since the little squirrel's paw was only this big it did not hurt but it did itch a little. While rubbing her cheek, she pointed to the two kids and asked Little Jiao, " What do you want me to do with them then? Ask them to cheer me on with little pom-pom while I pick the corn ears?"
As soon as she spoke Ya Ya gasped and looked at Mo Qiang with a crybaby face, it was as if she was going to cry any second now! Chi Chi hushed the little girl up while glaring at Mo Qiang.
" Why? Are you looking down on mascots? I am telling you that even mascots are really important——" Little Jiao was still speaking when Ya Ya gasped again and this time she took three steps back and then fell on her bottom, big, fat drops of tears falling from her eyes as she cried shocking Little Jiao so much that she did not know what to do with the scene that was happening in front of her. " What…Why are you crying?"
But from the childish talk of Ya Ya, she could more or less understand that the two of them will be fired from work if she returned them, and by fired it looks like it meant to be killed in the world of these summoning spirits.
In the end, she pursed her lips and then thought carefully before crouching down and then looking at the two terrified kids, even though one of them was crying and the other was glaring at her, Mo Qiang was not impatient with them since she grew up in the orphanage and almost raised half of the younger one until she turned eighteen.
Seeing these two look at her with so much desperation, she could not harden her heart to send them back and in the end, sighed and asked, " Fine, Fine," she wiped the tears of the small Ya Ya and said, " Show me what you can do, as long as you two prove me that you are useful I will not send you back."
In fact, these two were so cute that she might as well keep them as mascots even if they were useless duds.
