Beauty and the Beast: Wolf Hubby XOXO (Web Novel)
chapter-333

Gu Mengmeng and the rest directly returned to Elvis’s cave. In the past, all discussions took place at the witch doctor’s cave but now, Lea’s cave was not available due to the Eagle-owl tribe residing there. With the messenger of the Beast Deity, the witch doctor was not the one closest to the Beast Deity anymore so naturally, the messenger’s cave was the best venue to discuss matters.

Barete and Collin stood outside the cave, standing straight and solemnly like door-gods. Even though Gu Mengmeng could not feel it, she knew that the two of them were emitting their beast pressure.

Those two second-level orcs was neither weak nor strong so there was a limit to how frightening their beast pressure could get. However, everyone’s beast pressure was different and both of their identities were now the messenger’s guards so the intention of emitting their beast pressure was to tell everyone nearby: the messenger’s currently discussing matters, nobody’s allowed close to her.

Gu Mengmeng smiled helplessly and patted both their shoulders. “Relax a little, there’s no need to be this wound-up. This is Elvis’s territory. Even if both of you are not carrying out your duties diligently, nobody will dare to eavesdrop on us.”

Barete and Collin glanced at each other before throwing their sight on Elvis.

Elvis nodded his head, implying that they should heed by Gu Mengmeng’s words. Nobody would dare to easily step close to the cave of a fourth-level orc. Even if there was someone, there was no way the person could hide from his senses.

“Yes, mighty messenger.” Barete and Collin spoke in one voice.

The corners of Gu Mengmeng’s mouth twitched and she asked, “Both of you are treating me like this too, huh? Yeah, I became the messenger of the Beast Deity but I didn’t do anything to let you down, right? Is there a need to distance yourselves from me?”

Barete did not say anything while Collin scratched his head innocently and said, “Yeah….actually it’s not distancing. It’s just that we suddenly don’t know how to interact with you. After all, this is the first time we’ve become guards so we don’t know what to do.”

Gu Mengmeng broke out into laughter and she pointed at her own nose and said, “This is also the first time I’ve become the messenger of the Beast Deity. Since everyone doesn’t have any experience, let’s not tease each other any further. The main reason why I chose both of you as my guards is because both of you are my friends. I can let both of you guard my back in ease. But if you continue being fair and just and also draw a clear line between us, I’ll be very sad. I don’t want to lose my friends just because I’ve become the messenger of the Beast Deity.”

He recalled that night when everyone was eating the delicious food Gu Mengmeng had cooked. That day, Oakley asked Gu Mengmeng why she did not want to use her storage method to unify the entire Beast World. Gu Mengmeng then replied that standing on the peak would mean that she would become utterly isolated with no relatives or friends…

Collin frowned and asked seriously, “Then…if I continue calling you Gu Mengmeng, everyone will feel that your guards are not respecting you. Won’t they also look down upon you and do everything as they please?”

Gu Mengmeng smiled and asked him back, “If they are just respecting my identity as a ‘messenger of the Beast Deity’, I won’t need that kind of respect. But if they’re respecting me as Gu Mengmeng, then even if I’m Zhang San, Li Si or Wang Er Ma Zi, those who respect me will respect me. Moreover…”

As Gu Mengmeng spoke, she lied deeper into Elvis’s arms and said, “If they want to do as they please in front of me, they still have to ask whether my husband agrees.”

Elvis gave a light smile, he liked how she took advantage of someone’s’ power to bully others, especially when it was taking advantage of his.
