Chapter 1065: PANDAS!!!
Chapter 1065: PANDAS!!!
"Ah, don’t go yet! We don’t know if they’re hostile or not. And if there’s a leader, I think it’s good if the leader becomes Maya’s familiar. That way, it will be easy to bring the others to the village. Only if you want—"
Before I finished speaking, Wendy and Shirley flew and look around to see if there’s anyone who can be considered as the leader here.
Well, I have to say that they are indeed cute. Even Victoria is sneaking into the group of pandas without the pandas knowing.
"Master. Georgia is also seduced by the charm of those animals," Graham said.
I looked at Georgia and her eyes are not moving at all from the pandas. They have so much charm that they can affect Georgia.
I never thought that the most dangerous monsters from this world would be pandas. And even I was charmed. I’m still hugging the panda from before.
From its reaction, the panda is quite strong and hostile. So I put it down.
"Sorry. You’re just too cute," I said.
Then the panda looked at me with its huge eyes and raised its arms. Just like magnet, I hug the panda again.
"Dangerous. They are dangerous. Their charm can destroy a country," I said.
"Master, I want to hug one as well," Maya said as she jumped down from Ray’s back.
The panda in my embrace looked at Maya. Then it stretched its arms toward Maya as if telling her that it’s okay to hug it.
So I carefully give the panda to Maya. While making sure that I’m always cautious. Because just this little panda is strong enough to damage a master level mage’s body.
But the panda was so friendly toward Maya.
There are only two reasons why it’s friendly. First, it doesn’t sense any hostility from us. And it was resisting before because I hugged it without its permission. Now that it noticed that we’re not enemies, it became friendly to us.
The second is that the panda prefer women over men. So when I hug it, it was hostile at first. But for Maya, it became friendly in an instant.
There could be another reason. Like it’s trying to trick us with its cuteness. But I decided that it’s not the reason. Because it’s cute.
I think the panda’s charm is much stronger than succubus’ charm. Either Sonia’s charm magic or Arin’s charm magic can’t be compared to the panda’s.
I checked the inside of the panda’s body. There’s nothing that tells me that panda can’t survive in warm climate. So I think it’s fine if we bring them anywhere.
Soon after, Victoria, Shirley, and Wendy returned.
"I don’t know about leader. But there’s a slightly smaller panda with white and pink color instead of white and black. Like the orca from back then. Maybe that’s the leader," Victoria said.
She meant the orca that Spot and the others fought. Victoria and Ray also fought against the group of orcas who could create a powerful tsunami. And that pink orca was the leader.
Maybe the same could be said about the pandas. That pink and small panda is the leader.
Shirley and Wendy also didn’t find anything. They only see a pink panda and only one. While others panda, although there are some that are smaller than that pink panda, are normal. So the smaller pandas other than the pink one should still be children.
I searched for that pink panda and I found it right away. As expected, it’s cute. Pandas are cute.
Well, they ate rabbits. That part is not cute. But that can be taken care of if we bring them to the village. They will be given cooked food or maybe even bamboos. Well, I don’t know if they will like bamboos like normal pandas or not. But it’s worth checking.
I looked at the girls and now, they are sharing the panda from before with each other. They hugged the panda in turns. Even Victoria uses her human form. And Georgia is also looking at the panda as if she wants to hug it as well.
"Then, you girls can play with the panda for now. Since I have the strongest body, I will walk there to the pink panda. If they attack, I will be fine. But if they don’t attack, once I reached the pink panda, you can come as well. Just walk slowly and don’t surprise the pandas," I said.
I walked ahead by myself. It’s a big group of pandas. Like a nest. Is this a tribe of pandas?
Soon enough, the pandas near me noticed my presence. They’re all staring at me as I walked between them. But they are blocking my path now.
As I was about to proceed, I feel a tug on my pants. One of the panda is grabbing my leg and hugging it. Then the panda started to climb my body as if I’m a tree.
Its claws are quite sharp. But I use Aura to protect myself so I wasn’t hurt.
Still, there are a lot of them. And before I knew it, I’m already on the snow with pandas surrounding me and sat on my chest.
"THIS IS HEAVEN!" I shouted.
’Don’t shout! You will surprise the pandas!’ Victoria said via telepathy.
How can I not shout? This is the best! Pandas are the cutest!
And now, instead of me approaching the pink panda, the pink panda is the one approaching me. So I remove all the other pandas that are hugging me and look at the pink panda directly. I’m still on the snow. Sitting there.
The pink panda approached me. And then it comes so close to me before finally, the pink panda sat on my lap.
...It’s warm.
Well, my clothes are dirty now and smelly. But their cuteness is beyond their dirtiness and their smell. So it’s fine.
’Tell the others that they can come here. Just be careful of their claws. If they want to climb on your body, they’re using their claws. And it will hurt even for master level mages,’ I said to Victoria.
Then the girls started walking to my location. And soon, they started running and hugging all the pandas they can hug.
"So, are you the leader of the pandas?" I asked the pink panda.
Well, I’m not expecting any answer. But I got the answer soon enough.
"I am. Are you the leader of those humans?"
...Holy shit! The panda just spoke! And why is his voice is so deep?
"Not really. But you can say that. It’s complicated with humans. Can other pandas speak like you?" I asked.
"Only me. It’s been a while since I see creatures other than us and some rabbits to eat. I have a favor to ask of you since we can talk," the pink panda said.
"What favor?" I asked.
"As you can see, we are starving. There’s not enough food here. And we’re tired of moving around looking for preys in this weather. If possible, I want to go to another location. A warmer place. And I don’t want us to starve again. So it should be a place where we can find food," he said.
Starving? Them?
I looked at the pandas again and it seems like they are indeed malnourished. They should be fatter and chubbier. They’re cuter that way.
Are they creatures that exist only for cuteness?
"Well, what a coincidence. One of the girls over there is a summoner who wants to make a contract with one of you. And I can bring you somewhere nice where you don’t even have to hunt for your own food. Though I have a question. Do you like bamboos?" I asked the pink panda.
"Ah, bamboos. My favorite food. It has been a long time since I last eat bamboos. If we go with you, can you feed us bamboos?" he asked.
"As much as you want."
I can easily grow some bamboo plants thanks to the elves’ magic. There’s no need to worry about food for the pandas.
But will the monsters there allow pandas to stay there? The pandas don’t seem to be a good fighter. And most of the monsters there love to fight.
Well, they shouldn’t complain. Because I am their king. They have to obey me.
"You said that you want to go to a warmer place. But why are you here?" I asked.
"The place we lived before was great. There were a lot of bamboos. But our population keeps increasing and most of the bamboos were gone. So we left to search for more bamboos. But we got lost to this mountain. I’m ashamed to say this but we’re not good with direction," the pink panda said.
"Then it should be okay to bring you to a warmer place. That’s not a problem," I said.
I’d like to get bring the kids to see the pandas. But the pandas are still monsters. So they can easily hurt the kids.
"One more thing. Is your kind love hugs?" I asked.
"We only hug people who have no hostility toward us. Once we noticed that they’re safe, we try not to harm them. We love affection you see. Unfortunately, our claws are too sharp. I wish I can shave them off," he said.
"That won’t be a problem. But all the other pandas think the same, right? If so, then we can have something that will benefit both sides," I said.
Pandas get! We are now increasing the population of the village again!
