Chapter 40: Feeding the Fire Kirin
"What...?!" Lucy cried out suddly after hearing Kt's reply. "Did you say the Kirin acknowledged you as its master?" Lucy asked in a surprised tone while observing Kt from head to toe.
Kt nodded awkwardly as he stared at her surprised face.
Lucy took some time to believe what Kt said. "The wild beasts only accept persons with pure-heart as masters. Does that mean..." Lucy stared at Kt, thinking of how many surprises he had hidd from her.
"Lucy, can you bring food for Kirin? It seems very hungry." Kt asked as the fire Kirin began making all types of sounds.
"Sorry, my bad," Lucy came out of her thoughts, moved hurriedly, and began picking out differt types of food from various containers in the room.
"Kt, the spiritual beasts only eat fresh food. The g floor contains processed and preserved food. That is why you didn't find any suitable food for your pet. From next time onwards, directly contact me if you need to feed your Kirin." Lucy spoke while gathering food in more than 0 bowls and placing them on a long table at the cter of the 3th floor.
"Ohh… I really don't know about that. Thank you for the help, Lucy. If not for you, I might be facing a lot of trouble feeding this little thing." Kt said while helping her carry the bowls.
The Fire Kirin had already begun its assault on the food bowls as the fresh aromatic smell pulled it towards the food source.
"All the containers in this room are laid with magic circles. So, the food will stay fresh throughout the year. I think price is not a problem for you, as your pet alone costs a fortune." Lucy added with a giggling laughter while moving along with Kt.
After knowing that Kt had a good Dao heart, she became more fridly with Kt and accepted his company without any hesitation.
Kt laughed at her remark and said, "As long as you provide good food to my pet, I won't mind paying you double the price. But you should personally come here every time to serve the food." Kt replied jokingly before taking the food bowl from her hands. Every time he touched her soft hands, Kt felt an unusual ssation, and his mind is craving it more.
"Th it's a deal. Don't blame me for doubling the service charge." Lucy replied with a giggling laughter and placed the last variety of food bowl in Kt's hands.
Kt smiled back and asked, "By the way, can you tell me about these food items? It might be helpful to me in the future."
Lucy sighed while touching her forehead and said "What happed to my brain? I must have explained it to you while picking the food."
She leaned before long ctral table and began explaining the food items while pointing her finger.
"Come closer. First, we have the sun-shine crystals. These are like the daily supplemt for our Fire Kirin, providing esstial nutrits to fuel its fiery ergy."
Kt nodded atttively, his eyes scanning the crystal-like, soft red fruits with interest.
"Are these flame fruits?" he inquired, pointing to the fiery orange fruits nestled among the other offerings, which he knew through his school lesson from Thea.
"Ah, the flame fruits," Lucy said with a smile. "They're a favorite treat of Fire Kirin, bursting with flavor and vitality. Next, we have the magma roots, infused with the power of natural aura, and the inferno jelly, a sweet, sugary snack that melts in the mouth."
As Lucy continued to describe each item in detail, Kt listed inttly, absorbing every word. He made mtal notes of the rare medicinal herbs, the aromatic spices, and the various body-strgthing and nutritious foods that would surely befit his majestic companion.
Meanwhile, the Fire Kirin, ssing the abundance of treats before it, had begun to nibble eagerly on the offerings, emitting delighted munching noises as it savored each mouthful.
Occasionally, it would pluck a particularly tempting piece and offer it to Kt, a gesture of appreciation that warmed his heart.
"It seems the Fire Kirin really loves you," Lucy remarked with a grin, her eyes twinkling with amusemt.
Kt just smiled awkwardly, remembering the sce of his falling down to the pond water.
Meanwhile, in the clouds...
Lambu is drooling with saliva as he stared at the rich food substances in the Sun Shine Pet Store.
"Master, you should learn a few things from the young master, Kt. Look at him... he is providing all types of delicious food for an un-evolved beast." Lambu said while staring at Fire Kirin's food bowl.
Mohini smirked at his remark. "If you speak nonsse, I won't ev feed you those lava snails and ash algae. So, stop blabbering."
Lambu immediately shut his mouth, as he knew how cruel Mohini becomes wh she is upset.

Back on the 3th floor of the Sun Shine pet store...
While the Fire Kirin is busy eating the flame fruits, Kt helped Lucy to observe the Kirin from a close distance.
As the fire Kirin is still avoiding Lucy, Kt held her hand and let her touch the mane of the fire Kirin. An excited smile played on Lucy's lips while touching the warm body of Fire Kirin.
On the other hand, Kt felt a strange ssation as he held Lucy's hand dearly. While Lucy is observing Fire Kirin closely, Kt stared at her curious face without batting an eyelid.
It became very hard for him to control the raging hormones, and Kt gripped her hands more tightly.
"Kt, the Kirin has some fresh wounds on its body. I will add a few spirit potions to your takeout. Wh you feed it next time, add those potions to the food." Lucy spoke while taking a closer look at the wounds of Kirin that happed during its capture.
"Thanks a lot. By the way, the Kirin's mane used to be pink. But it turned black... Is there any specific reason?" Kt asked without losing his grip on her hand.
Lucy took a closer look and replied, "Don't worry about that.. it's a temporary effect. The mane will change to normal color soon. By the way, you should add some protective equipmt to the Kirin, and do you think of any decorations for your pet?" Lucy questioned while facing Kt.
