My Divine Beasts Are Really Not Evil Gods-Chapter 29: Special Skill Secret Food

Chapter 29

Such a regular sound immediately ruled out the possibility of it being a bird.
Lu Yu's first reaction was that the Nightmare had come.
But on second thought, the Nightmare was strongest in the dreamscape, where it could freely manipulate a person's inner phantasms of fear; coming to reality meant abandoning its home-field advantage.
Could it be another Demonic Beast attracted by the Taboo Curse?
Lu Yu's gaze sharpened as he pictured deadly monsters like a multi-limbed Spider-person, a Lizard-person, or a Tentacle Monster, taking advantage of the early dawn when vigilance was at its lowest to scale the wall outside his window.
After all, this was not the Main Urban Area and was quite far from the Myriad Beast Tower of the Starry Host. The city was on the edge of the Great Abyss, which was the Borderlands, and there had been many cases of Demonic Beasts and Evil God Servitors infiltrating to kill humans.
At this thought, the window, still hidden by the dark gray curtain, became a man-eating Gate of the Abyss in Lu Yu's eyes.
The moment he opened it, he would be viciously attacked.
He glanced at the Little Spider, who understood his meaning.
So he hid below the window and asked:
"Who is it?"
However, there was no response.
The knocking continued.
Lu Yu narrowed his eyes.
After a three-second countdown, he swiftly yanked open the curtain and pulled open the window, a single fluid motion.
The Little Spider's silk swept out.
The Proficient-level Spider Silk instantly wove into a large net, directly ensnaring the figure outside the window before violently yanking it inside. It landed on the floor with a heavy
thud!
Though it was wrapped in Spider Silk, one could vaguely make out a bizarre shape.
The upper half was human, while the lower half had wings, as if it were a grotesquely stitched-together monstrosity.
It really was a monster!
Lu Yu's expression grew solemn.
He waved his hand, signaling to end its life.
"Wuwuwu…"
Just as the Little Spider was forming a Spider Silk Sword for the execution, terrified whimpers came from within the silk cocoon.
It sounded a bit like…
A person?
"Wait a minute!"
Lu Yu stopped the Little Spider, feeling something was off.
But to prevent being deceived by a Demonic Beast mimicking a human voice, he cautiously cut away only the silk around its head, revealing the face of a man in his twenties.
His face was filled with terror, and he begged with his eyes shut:
"Big Bro Fugitive, please don't kill me! I have a five-year-old mother, a seventy-year-old child, and a newly-wed wife! I was just passing by to deliver a package! I know the rules, I kept my eyes closed, I didn't see a thing!"
'If he died, wouldn't that make another widow? Pah, that's not the point.'
"Courier?"
Lu Yu was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the dark green uniform under his neck.
It did seem to be the uniform of the Fabida Company.
To be safe, Lu Yu fought his exhaustion and activated the Eye of Truth again, confirming that this guy was indeed human.
He questioned him:
"If you're delivering a package, why didn't you use the main door?"
There was still the possibility of an Evil God cultist in disguise!
"Because this is an Expedited Delivery order from the resident of this house, so it came by Air Transport…" the Courier trembled.
Lu Yu thought for a moment.
He had been in a hurry to buy something and did choose Expedited Delivery, but he still had a question:
"Then why didn't you answer when I called out just now?"
"I… I was wearing headphones, I didn't hear… and when I saw the light suddenly turn on, I figured someone was home…" the Courier said, trembling. He tilted his head; the headphones had fallen into the cocoon, but the cord was still visible.
It was a misunderstanding!
Lu Yu was a bit embarrassed. Just as he was thinking about how to handle the situation, the Little Spider sidled up, raised a hand like a sycophant, and gestured whether it should slit his throat.
Anything that troubles Master, Just bury it!
This action made the peeking Courier let out another series of ghostly wails.
"Don't always be thinking about burying people, we're civilized people!"
Lu Yu flicked its head and then had the Little Spider release him.
The Spider Silk disintegrated. At the Courier's feet was a Giant-Winged Bustard, nearly suffocated from being stepped on, its wings bound by silk as it lay curled up.
Its Racial Potential was High-tier Elite. This one had the strength of a Peak Servant, approaching its Adult Stage.
Its neck was gray, and its body was a meter wide, not including its wings. If its wings were spread, they would span a full six meters.
Because of their strong stamina and docile temperament, they were often tamed by beast tamers for transport or carrying goods. Rumor had it that there was an even larger evolved form, but most of the Giant-Winged Bustard Cultivation Mystic Realms were monopolized by the Fabida Company as an employee benefit for their couriers.
It also served as a Signature Pet Beast that could prove his identity.
After Lu Yu's explanation and apology, the Courier slowly recovered from his shock, roughly understanding it was all a misunderstanding.
The other party seemed to have mistaken him for an Evil God cultist or a Demonic Beast.
At that moment, he really wanted to curse someone out.
Does this guy have Persecutory Delusion?
What Evil God Cult works in broad daylight? They don't get Overtime Pay, so why would they risk their lives for that meager salary?
But seeing the vampire-pale Lu Yu and the spotlessly clean room, his brewing anger was instantly extinguished.
What kind of man keeps his room this clean?
He must be a Pervert!
This Persecutory Delusion was acting up even in broad daylight.
If he said the wrong thing, he might provoke him, and then he'd be finished.
So that his wife doesn't become a Widow, He had to endure!
This wasn't cowardice; it was being kind to others.
Lu Yu looked at the terrified Courier and said apologetically, "I'm very sorry. How about we exchange contact info? I'll transfer you money for Medical Expenses!"
The thought of paying compensation gave Lu Yu a headache.
He was already trying to stretch every yuan, and now he had to pay for this.
It's all that Nightmare's fault, making him so jumpy lately.
I'm definitely going to skin it alive.
But he had to own up to his mistakes.
They were both working-class people; life wasn't easy.
The Courier watched Lu Yu frown, his expression shifting constantly, a flash of Killing Intent in his eyes.
Paired with that gloomy face, he looked exactly like a Supervillain, sinister and terrifying.
Compensation?
This isn't Hush Money, is it?
At that thought, the Courier shivered and quickly waved his hands in refusal, forcing a smile.
"N-No, it's not necessary. It's my fault for wearing headphones at work.
It's on me. Just don't file a complaint, and we're good.
Here, please sign for it, and my task will be complete."
No need to pay!
Lu Yu's mood instantly improved.
'There are still good people in this world,'
he thought, and found a pen to sign his name.
In the time it took to turn and put down the pen, Lu Yu was about to offer to take the man downstairs for breakfast as an apology, but when he turned back, the Courier had already snatched the slip, grabbed his Giant-Winged Bustard, and performed a flexible Leap of Faith, fleeing the scene.
The Courier's expression was sorrowful. He thought that when he got back, he would definitely this to the company.
No more Air Transport. He'd switch to the Waterway—no, tsunamis were also dangerous.
Right, the Railway!
"Working so hard this early in the morning, not wasting a single second slacking off. He's truly a person who loves life!" Lu Yu remarked with emotion, then opened the package.
There wasn't much inside, only three items. The first was a large iron box containing a bag of colorful biscuits.
These were Dream-type Pet Beast Biscuits made from Dream Fragments, specially ordered from another city and created by a Professional-level Pet Beast Breeder.
One box cost ten thousand yuan.
It was advertised as being rich in a bunch of miscellaneous trace elements that could strengthen bones with long-term consumption. It would last about half a month and was beneficial for pet beasts in their Juvenile Stage.
His own daily food expense was only thirty yuan. One box was equal to his food budget for a year.
Humans were worse off than beasts!
The Little Spider sniffed the fragrance and leaned its head over, a look of longing on its face.
(﹃)
But it retracted its hand halfway, sat down obediently, and looked at Lu Yu.
"Ying?"
Can I eat it?
"Go ahead, I bought it for you!"
Lu Yu patted the Little Spider's head. It nodded happily, picked up a biscuit with its small hands, and bit into it with a
crunch!
After chewing, a happy smile spread across its face.
"Ying!"
Delicious!
Too cute!
'Now I finally get why Raising Sims are so popular. Who could resist this? It's too adorable.
'
Lu Yu had been dissatisfied with the simple packaging, feeling it wasn't worthy of his ten thousand yuan, but now, seeing the Little Spider's satisfied expression, he felt the urge to order another box.
Thankfully…
He quickly calmed down.
'That was close. I was almost manipulated by these capitalists.
Good thing my bank balance reined me in!'
Lu Yu thought with righteous indignation, then looked at the other two items from his expedited order, which were in boxes sealed with special Cursed Seals.
The items inside were none other than two types of Transcendent Material, which could be used to create a special Skill-type Secret Food perfectly suited for the Little Spider right now…
A new day begins.
