Along the way, the little female wore the sparkling, top-grade purple spirit stone around her neck.

Sebastian stole quiet glances at her, saying nothing. She was beautiful, Laurel really was different from other females. Everything she did seemed beautiful to him. She was smart, capable, cute, and gentle.

But she was too delicate. She couldn’t be allowed to work anymore. He had to take proper care of her.

That was it. Once they were back, he’d start learning how to cook. He’d make sure Laurel was well fed and comfortable, spoiled just the way she deserved to be.

The females in the tribe were lazy and sharp-tongued, and the single males were like starving wolves. He had to protect Laurel and make sure no one dared bully her.

Sebastian didn’t realize his thoughts had already turned completely love-struck. In his heart, the nickname had quietly shifted from little female to my Laurel.

“Sebastian.” Laurel suddenly thought of something. She rubbed his wolf head and asked, “What if the beastmen in the tribe don’t like me?”

“They won’t dare.”

“Huh?”

“I’m the strongest beastman in Runeveil Forest. Here, you don’t need to worry about anything.”

“Really? How strong are you?” Laurel grew curious. “How do you actually measure a beastman’s strength?”

Sebastian thought for a moment before answering. “The power males cultivate is called talent. It’s divided into five tiers, Beast Tier, Earth Tier, Imperial Tier, Heaven Tier, and God Tier. Aside from God Tier, the other four are each split into one to five stars.

“Most males are at Beast Tier or Earth Tier. Only a few clites can reach the Imperial Tier.

“There are fewer than ten Heaven Tier experts in the entire beast world. As for God Tier…

“That’s more like a legend. The phoenix from the Forging Valley counts as one. The one guarding the Abyss of Eternal Calamity also counts, if he’s still alive.

“Recently, I heard that a God Tier Dragonkin appeared in Skywyrm Valley in the Last South. But Dragonkin live in seclusion. He’ll probably never leave the valley.”

Laurel grew even more curious. This really sounded like leveling up in a game.

She asked again, “What about you? What tier are you?”

“I’m Imperial Tier, five stars.”

“Wow. I didn’t expect you to be this strong. You’re so young, and you’re already at the highest star of the Imperial Tier.”

Hearing the little female praise him, Sebastian wagged his tail happily. “Yeah. If I work a few more beast cycles, I might reach Heaven Tier.”

“What’s a beast cycle? Is that a year?”

“No. Beast cycles are only used to calculate age. One beast cycle is five years,” Sebastian explained.

“Five years?” She stared at the Fenfrost beneath her in shock. “Then if you’re talking about Heaven Tier, that’s at least another ten years. How old are you, Sebastian?”

“I’m 20 beast cycles old. What about you?”

“I don’t remember.”

Laurel wiped her forehead in silence.

The Samoyed beneath her looked young and handsome, but he was actually a hundred-year- old elder. No wonder she counted as underage to him.

Thinking about how Sebastian would still be devastatingly handsome ten beast cycles from now, while she herself would be gray-haired and wrinkled, she felt a strange wave of sadness.

But one thing she hadn’t gotten wrong was that Sebastian really was young.

Beastmen were long-lived, with an average lifespan of 80 beast cycles. Living past 100 was unusual.

When they reached the edge of the forest, Laurel ate the poison-warding herb, wrapped herself tightly in the hide, and followed Sebastian steadily through the mist into the northern Runeveil Forest.

The view opened up into something vast and breathtaking.

It was late summer, early autumn. Towering conifer forests stretched into the sky, layers of leaves shifting from bright green to deep green, from gold to fiery red.

Lakes, rivers, and forest paths shimmered with light. Meadows and shrubs were filled with blooming flowers.

The land was heavy with ripe fruit. Wild creatures roamed the mountains and woods, and the view felt almost unreal, like something shaped by a divine hand.

Laurel jumped down from the wolf’s back and ran through the woods like a happy little deer, breathing deeply and feeling free.

She hadn’t felt this unrestrained in a very, very long time.

“From the past… to now…” Her eyes grew hot. “How many years has it been?”

She sniffed, moved through the trees, and picked colorful flowers, weaving two wreaths and placing one on her own head and one on Fenfrost’s.

Fenfrost followed silently behind her, guarding the graceful figure ahead.

“So good. Laurel likes my territory.” Relief washed through him, and his eyes never left her.

“It really is beautiful here,” he said with a low laugh, warmth surfacing in his eyes. “But Laurel wearing a flower crown is even more captivating than the northern forest.”

The guards at the Fenfrost Tribe gates spotted the tall, powerful silver-white Fenfrost from afar.

“Mr. Whitehead is back!”

They were about to go out to greet him when they noticed a pretty, striking face pecking out from behind the wolf’s head.

“W-wait. On Mr. Whitehead’s back. That’s a female!”

“Mr. Whitehead formed bonds?”

Beastmen loved gossip too. The news instantly set the entire tribe buzzing.

By the time Laurel and Sebastian reached the gate, hundreds of beastmen of all already gathered.

Sebastian put on a calm front, nodding to those who crowded around him. His back stayed straight as he walked steadily toward the caves.

Under his wolf fur, his body burned red-hot. He could clearly hear the whispers around him.

“Oh my god. Mr. Whitehead really formed bonds. They look perfect together.”

“Huh? That female doesn’t have a bonding mark on her waist.”

“She looks so small. She probably hasn’t even reached her coming-of-age ceremony yet.”

“So Mr. Whitehead plans to raise her from young and make her his first mate later.”

“Of course. Otherwise, how could Mr. Whitehead carry a little female in beast form?”

“My god. The little female isn’t even afraid of Fenfrost’s beast form. If that’s the case, then maybe I could too…”

“You wish. Mr. Whitehead’s beast form is the most beautiful Fenfrost in thousands of years. What do you think you are? You’re a giant rhino beastman and you want a female to look at your beast form?

“What’s wrong with giant rhinos? We’re big and muscular too.”

“Beast God above, that little female is unbelievably beautiful. She might even be prettier than the Ignifox tribe leader’s Matriarch.”

“If you say that and Wilona hears you, she’ll definitely smash into cave.”

“Wilona claims she’s the most beautiful female in the tribe every day. I think she doesn’t even look as good as Alice.”

“She’s not as cute as Alice, but she’s strong and very fertile.”
