The pet master

Looking at the crying Lucy, Max was confused for a moment.

He held her in his arms and patted her little head.

"What's wrong Lu?"

mi. mi. mi. Max couldn't understand the confusing messages bombarding his mind through their spiritual-link.

But after Lucy calmed down a little, Max could understand what happened.

The pigeon is gone!.

After looking around, Max confirmed it. There is no trace of it.

Now that he remembered that Beatrice should have left the window open.

Max was secretly exhilarated, but on the surface he comforted Lucy, patting her back. "We will find it. Don't worry."

Max wanted to jump in happiness. You have to understand the pigeon's current appearance is out of this world. It was so ugly, Max felt a headache every time he thinks about having to walk around holding it.

What If someone thinks it's some rare legendary pet and comes to Rob him or something.

This isn't some joke. In this magical world, such a things actually happen before.

' thankfully it's gone, and hopefully forever.' but looking at Lucy's crying appearance, max didn't know what to do for a moment.

"hey little Lu, come on stop crying, if you stop crying I will buy you some more skills, something like your Mist control."

Lucy suddenly stopped crying. It was so sudden Max was speechless for a moment.

'good guy, you can switch painting style so fast'

Lucy held Max's hand and kept shaking it, seemingly to make sure Max won't go back on his word.

To her, what is a pigeon worth in front of a skill? She didn't understand or care about a lot of things. But she cares about power and stuff like skills.

With it, she can get all the pigeons in the world, or maybe get some tracking skills and find the escaping pigeon.

"alright. Alright. I said I would buy it, and I will buy it,"

Lucy smiled at him foolishly.

Max ignored Lucy's shenanigans and started checking the new list of goods.

. After sometime Max felt happy.

There are a few new useful skills.

At first he planned to buy potions and skills but with this list, forget about potions. They are too expensive, yet kind of useless to Max.

Of course, that's because the potions available are too low-leveled, you can't get things like permanent enhancement in attributes, through Jamie.

..

From this new batch, he picked two more skills.

Making it 4 skills, 3 white and one green at a total of 79k, although all the skills are support type.

Max wanted to pick some fireball skills or something of a sort for Lucy, however she won't be able to learn it.

Most skills require a certain amount of affinity to learn.

A fish can't learn fire breath, however if that fish gains some fire related skills or abilities on its own by some miracle, then from that point on, the Affinity of the fish will change slightly and it will be possible to learn other fire related skills

..............

Time passes.

In the next period of time, Max avoided Beatrice at all costs. As long as she doesn't see him directly, and relying on his passive’s slight effect on her, she forgot about him.

Two days later, early morning, Julio and Nicholas approached Max.

The two of them were wary of Max and wanted to make sure he won't interfere.

“Friend, we will be making our move soon. We just want to confirm that the coast is clear. I won't hide it from you. Our target is a vampire and if she escapes, imagine all the humans who will become her food, suffering a fate worse than death. “

Julio kept talking nonsense, but his intention was clear. He wanted to make sure Max won't jump in to help the Beauty in distress.

“don't worry about me, I won't take pity on someone who literally takes me as some high-quality dish. Just thinking about being eaten by something, make me disgusted, so just go and do your business. “

Max clearly declared his stance.

Julio, getting his answer, smiled. “alright time is up. We will go set the ambush before breakfast ”.

Max had a strange smile looking at their backs.

Closing the door, he held his new phone bought from Jamie.

On the screen, a real time video of the restaurant was playing.

A camera is necessary in such an important place where people gather like the restaurant for incidents like theft and fights.

So max had Jamie link his phone with the camera. He plans on waiting in till the fight starts before getting closer to the restaurant.

But before he and Lucy plans. On enjoying the fight while eating popcorn.
