The White Tiger’s main space changed.
After getting the White Tiger’s blood essence, Caspian’s mastery of body movements once again improved.
Caspian might look normal when did not move, but as soon as he used his footwork, he appeared real yet imaginary, as if he traveled through folded space.
Such an erratic ghostly body technique would be a nightmare for any enemy.
The Mirage White Tiger accepted Caspian’s bow.
Then, it stared at Caspian and slowly stood.
Soon, Caspian saw a small white tiger curled up behind the Mirage White Tiger.
“It’s the Mirage White Tiger’s cub!” Caspian was stunned.
The Mirage White Tiger leaned, picked the tiny white cub, and walked toward Caspian.
Caspian hurriedly walked forward and grabbed it.
As soon as Caspian received it, his hands felt warm.
The tiny Mirage White Tiger was only about 30 centimeters long, and as it was just born, some of its fetal hair had yet wholly faded.
Even though it was part of the White Tigers, the cub appeared just like a larger kitten.
At that time, the little buddy had its eyes shut, and it gently snored.
Then, after twisting and turning in Caspian’s arms, it seemed to have finally found a comfortable position and fell into a deep sleep.
Caspian carefully carried the cub, looking at the Mirage White Tiger as he asked, “Is it a male or female?”
“Just like me,” the Mirage White Tiger said.
Then, it leaned over, sticking out its long tongue as it licked the little white cub.
It was apparent that the Mirage White Tiger knew their separation was imminent, and it was filled with reluctance.
Caspian was suddenly touched by the scene.
He could not help but recall the words his mother left him at the Tower of Life.
“The journey ahead of you is still long, and I apologize for not accompanying you further.
Perhaps you’ll encounter countless dangers in the future.
But, I hope that you’ll remember no matter how difficult, dire, or desperate the situation is, you should never give up on hope.”
She probably felt the same sadness and bitterness as the Mirage White Tiger when she wrote the message.
Caspian suddenly felt somewhat teary, and he hurriedly took a deep breath, saying, “Don’t worry about it.
With me around, I’ll make sure she lives well.”
After pondering for a moment, Caspian added, “I know what you’re worried about, and I can assure you that I’ll treat her like my own sister.
I won’t let anyone hurt her, nor will I treat her like a slave.”
The Mirage White Tiger looked at Caspian and asked, “You promise?”
For the first time, its voice trembled.
In truth, the Mirage White Tiger already planned for the worst, which was after Caspian raised its cub, he would treat it as a monster under its command.
However, Caspian gave it an unexpected assurance.
Then, Caspian chuckled.
“Do you know what other people call me? Caspian, the Ferocious Tiger, and the ferocious tigers never lie.”
It did not matter what Caspian was about to say, and even if Caspian’s assurance was to comfort the Mirage White Tiger, it did not mind.
With that guarantee, it was enough to put the monster at ease and leave!
“I’ll raise it well until the day you come for her.”
Caspian looked at the Mirage White Tiger.
Although Caspian was much smaller and his realm was far from the tiger’s, Caspian’s tone sounded as if he instructed another companion, “You must return.”
Caspian did not know if he said the same thing to the specific figure that had left him.
Even if she left him the Earring of Echo, Tower of Life, and countless other treasures, Caspian would much rather trade all that for his mother to never leave him.
The Mirage White Tiger felt Caspian’s emotions, and it burst into tears.
Then, it whimpered and said in a low voice, “Alright.
I promise that I’ll return.”
