Chapter 138: Chapter 139, Transformation_1
"Ji Nuan cub, why is your face so red?" The Shaman was sitting on a beast skin, preparing some herbs that would later be applied to Ge Tai, when he noticed that Ji Nuan had walked in looking somewhat wilted, her complexion was flushed, and she looked quite uncomfortable.
Ji Nuan touched her cheek, which was now growing hotter: "I don’t know what’s going on. I’ve been feeling feverish for several days, and it just started getting serious. So, I thought I’d come to have you take a look."
Upon hearing her words, the Shaman handed the stone bowl in his hands to Tu Yaoyao: "You continue crushing these. We’ll use them later."
He then led Ji Nuan to the entrance of the cave to thoroughly examine her. Grandma Shaman expressed her confusion: "You look just like orc cubs when they are about to mature and transform. But you’re a female cub...this... "
Clearly, this was the first time Grandma Shaman had come across Ji Nuan’s condition.
"Well, I should go home for now. If anything further happens, I’ll come see you."
The Shaman nodded: "That’s all we can do for now."
...
"You guys go bake these brick blocks, and you guys go bake roof tiles. During the baking period, I will take care of your food. The beast who bakes the most will get an extra Humming Beast from me as a token of gratitude." Xiu Yan’s brick and tile baking team was in place and started operating as per their roles.
At this time, Ji Nuan was lying on the stone bed of a small cave in a state of exhausting heat that overwhelmed her whole body, causing her intense discomfort.
She gradually lost consciousness.
While Xiu Yan, who was keen on building houses, was toiling away at the open space, the now unconscious Ji Nuan did not notice that her ears and tail were slowly fading...
...
Ji Nuan woke up amidst a loud noise. She shifted uncomfortably, wondering why the stone bed felt so hard today.
With groggy eyes, she instinctively shielded her eyes with her hand and muttered: "Brother Xiu Yan, why didn’t you lower the beast skin curtain?"
The commotion instantly stopped, and Grandma Shaman’s voice rang out in her ear: "Ji Nuan cub, you’re awake?"
Xiu Yan quickly held the little cub in his arms and leaned her against himself. His usually cold voice unmistakably carried a hint of worry: "How do you feel now? Still uncomfortable?"
Ji Nuan, now lucid, looked up in surprise at the crowd of orcs filling the cave, her mouth slightly agape: "What happened?"
Her voice was a bit hoarse.
Patting her fluffy head, Xiu Yan turned and handed her a bowl of water: "Drink."
The dryness in her throat made Ji Nuan obediently lower her head and start drinking. The sweet water slid down her throat, relieving her immensely.
"You little cub, gave us such a fright! You’ve slept for a full three days!" Grandma Shaman, wiping a teardrop from the corner of her eye, grumbled.
Ji Nuan was stunned, what the heck?!
Xiu Yan in a good mood, curved his lip and leaned in close to her ear: "Touch your ears and tail."
Ji Nuan, out of habit, twitched her ears. Huh?
She swung her tail, wait?
Finally, she couldn’t help but sit up straight, stretching her white tender hands to touch her head and buttocks. Her eyes widened in surprise.
She looked at the Silver Wolf sitting beside her in disbelief: "My ears and tail are gone?"
They were indeed gone, now making her look exactly like the other females in the tribe.
