《Master of Cards. *Reborn*》Chapter 24 : New Pets?
Advertisement
Lloyd, Miriam, Ren and Jenny were also joining Kael outside. Clearly they were seeing the many beasts that were before them.
"Kael? Are those wolves?" Miriam asked. They had a wolf's appearance but they were far bigger.
"Hon... I don't think wolves are supposed to be the size of pick-up trucks." Lloyd said.
"They aren't wolves... They're Fenrirs... They are the servants of Father and Mother Nature... Why are you here?" Kael asked, the Fenrirs were like jewels in terms of their beauty. Wolves were known to be majestic but Fenrirs are a class of their own. Diamonds when compared to the wolves. Yet, they did not seem hostile. Instead they went closer, giving soft growls to Kael. Followed by sniffing Kael's hand, then pouncing on him. Licking his face off.
"Kael!" Lloyd panicked only to see Black Symphony stop him from going any further.
"It's fine, they are just greeting him. The Fenrirs are a playful bunch." Black Symphony explained as the Fenrirs just kept pouncing over.
"Alright alright! Get back for a bit." The Fenrirs then went on over to Kael's family, they circled them around. Where a Fenrir pup in cobalt blue moved closer to Ren, wagging its tail as it rubbed its head on Ren's leg.
"It's okay, they're friendly..." Ice Reaper formed a stick of solid ice and passed it to Ren. Ren threw it away, seeing the cobalt blue pup run to the stick, picking it up with ease. Then running back to Ren passing the stick back to him.
"Seems like that one's friendly with you Ren." Kael said, then watching a violet Fenrir go to Jenny, nuzzling its nose to her fingers.
"Kael? Is this safe?" Kael nodded to Jenny as the Fenrir jumped over her, nuzzling her face as it tails wags happily.
"Seemingly a bit friendly for a bunch of fenrirs? I'm used to them trying to eat my face off." Nelista said as some of them growled at him.
"Of course nothing has changed... We are still the same as before." They heard the voice, the other Fenrirs moved away. The largest among them rivaled a 3 storey building, the Fenrir stared at Kael. This particular one was midnight black with its majestic blue eyes that could gaze into the souls of many.

"It has been many cycles since I've seen you..." Fenrir said as he leaned close to Kael. Rubbing its snout to Kael's cheeks.
"Hati... Where is Skoll?"
"Here!" Kael was thrown up into the air as a white Fenrir leaped up to get him. Where Kael had grabbed the coat, as the Fenrir landed back to the ground.
"You're too playful, Skoll." Kael complained while Skoll just laughed it off like it was nothing. Kael got off Skoll's back then looked at the dozens of Fenrirs.
"Why are you all here?" Kael asked.
"We're just... Comfortable here... It's like a nice resting station." Skoll said as they heard a roar from above, it was a dragon.
"Is that?! Is that a dragon!?" Lloyd panicked as he grabbed Ren and Jenny.
"It's okay dad, he's a friend." Kael said, though the assurance was not easy for them to accept it.
"So this is your family, Avatar?" Veriskua the Iron Dragon spoke to Kael. A voice that was deep, shaking the earth with his very whispers.
"Try whispering a bit lower, old friend. You might destroy our new house over there." Kael said as Veriskua nodded.
"Is this better?" The voice was lower and at least it did not shake the earth, that was a lot of control on Veriskua's part. Then Kael noticed two dragons that were small, they were far too small to be considered as dragons in the normal spieces. These little ones could fit in your hand similar to a normal reptile.
"These two are the off spring of my younger sister. Ventulga, the Faerie. These two are known as Pixie Dragons." Their roars were like little chirps, their scales were not sharp but it was smooth and had a delicate sensation to it. The two Pixie Dragons approached Ren and Jenny. Flying into their hands and laying down.
"Oh.. Seems as if they like the energies that are being emitted by your siblings... Though Hati and Skoll... You two seem to be staring at the Avatar's father." Veriskua spoke to Hati and Skoll.

"Well, we are the grandparents to most of these Fenrirs. It would seem more fitting that we stay by their sides don't we?" Hati spoke while Skoll was just grooming the younger pups.
"How are we going to feed them all? Do we have enough money for this?!" That was Miriam's concern, which was quite comical if you think about it. You have magical beasts that are in your lawn, and the only thing you think about is whether you can feed them.
"They do eat food but if this place is a place for them to rest. Then they won't necessarily have to eat food anyway." Kael said as Hati, Skoll and Veriskua nodded.
"Your son has just answered your question. Not to worry about us. With how vast this place is, we can make the soil grow fertile to plant things." Hati said.
"Yeah, so don't worry about us. The fruits here are nicer too. Meats can be nice to eat once in a while. Besides...I'm kinda... Gaining weight." Skoll spoke up to the remark.
"Little Ren and Young Jenny. Those Pixie Dragons seem to like being around you. So why don't you just bring them inside. Not to worry, if they need to use the toilet. They will just step outside. Pixie Dragons are a bit more temperamental with food. Delicious food is enough for them. They can't speak yet, but they will soon." Veriskua said as he covered his wings to his back, then laying his body down to the earth.
"Our descendants will just roam around and play around." Skoll said as Kael turned to his mother.
"Mom. If you want to plant anything or grow any kind of veggies. Just talk to the Fenrirs. They'll help you. And don't worry about plowing the land. They can do it too." Kael said as the Fenrirs howled in affirmation. The Pixie Dragons woke up, then they climbed over Jenny and Ren's shoulders. Chirping to them as they rub their heads over Jenny and Ren's cheeks.
"Very affectionate aren't they?" Veriskua whispered to Jenny and Ren.
"Yeah. Erm.. Can we keep them?" Ren turned to Lloyd who was still trying to wrap his head around the entire situation. First there were the wolves but they aren't wolves, they're Fenrirs. Now there's a dragon and then there's the two little dragons.
"Just think about how much fluff... That they can provide." Kael said as the Fenrirs came closer, fur that was softer than sheep yet fluffier than anything they have ever touched. Lloyd was slowly losing the argument as the Fenrirs were very friendly. Coming closer to be petted or have their fur stroked. They were wagging their tails like whippers of a car that had been set to auto on max speeds. They were far too happy to be near humans and this is a surprise even for Kael.
Fenrirs don't behave like this. They are majestic, they are noble and powerful. Yet, what Kael was seeing in front of him were just these goofy balls of fluff that demands affection. This has completely shattered the opinions of Fenrirs that he had previously.
"I swear this must be some elaborate shitpost." Kael whispered to himself as he continued petting the Fenrirs. Even watching them do tricks such as rolling over, playing dead, shaking hands with people.
"Oh, we had that prepared. Because according to Father and Mother Nature. Humans make pets do tricks." Skoll said where Kael let out another deep sigh. Seeing his blades seemingly happy to have them around. Radiant Sonata threw a stick which three Fenrirs went after it. They were fast, leaving trails in their movement.
"Dad?" Lloyd raised his hand, then he fainted from the sight.
"This'll take some time." Kael said as he brought his father into the house, where the Pixie Dragons followed Ren and Jenny in.
