《Only You (gXg){Intersex}》Ch24 " The Unexpected Trip To The Bazaar "
Advertisement
After being criticized and punished by Mia, Ana felt rather depressed.
Since her training was suspended, she returned to her room. The moment she entered the room, she saw Ananta, her war beast, in bed kept kicking it's left hind limb. All of a sudden, Ana seemed to understand what Ananta was trying to do.
Immediately, she picked up Ananta and helped it remove the strip of cloth and two twigs that were used to cure the injured hamstring in it's left hind limb. As soon as it felt that it's hind limb was free, Ananta jumped out of Ana's arms on to the ground. It landed steadily on the ground with its limbs. There seemed to be no pain anywhere. In an instant, it began to jump back and forth jubilantly. It was evident that it's injured hamstring had been completely cured.
‘ Look at you! How happy you are!’ Ana said with a smile. Seeing Ananta jumping on the ground jubilantly, Ana felt that her depression was all gone. It was replaced with the joy of seeing Ananta jumping around.
At that very moment, Fiona, Ana's roommate, came in. She saw Ananta jumping with ease. With a slightly startled and puzzled look on her face, Fiona asked,‘ Wasn't your war beast born with disability? How is it able to move normally now?’
‘ No, it wasn't born with any disability. It just had a hamstring injury in its limb. Now it has recovered’, Ana replied casually.
‘ But how did you know it was injured?’ Fiona was even more puzzled on knowing about Ananta 's injury and healing.
‘ I happen to have gained some knowledge about medicine’, Ana made up a random excuse.
The era in which she was living now, there were no professional veterinarians at all, so her war beast was commonly considered as a disabled beast since it was born . Modern medicine was a subject existing only in the era of her previous lifetime. She was lucky that she still had her memory from her previous lifetime. Thus, equipped with some common knowledge about modern medicine, she was able to find out that her war beast was not disabled but just injured.
‘ Fiona said, pointing to the tiger in her cage.
‘ Ana said and winked at Fiona with a wicked smile.
‘ Fiona asked at once.
‘ Ana told Fiona. She had great interest in learning everything about Fiona's tiger, so she had to make use of such a good opportunity.
Seeing Ana's wicked smile, Fiona hesitated for a while, but finally nodded in agreement. Other than relying on Ana, Fiona had no other good option now.

Ana immediately walked near the tiger's cage. She saw Cloud tiger lying in side in low spirits . It's face was listless. It's body was much fatter than it had been a few days ago, and from time to time it would open its mouth and spurt a bad smell. After the careful observation, she seemed to find out the reason why the tiger was not feeling well. She asked Fiona at once , ‘
‘ I've been busy training these days and nights, I need to have more practice. I had no time to take care of it, so I've been keeping it in the cage from the last few days ’ Fiona explained carefully.
‘ No wonder it is not feeling well. I think it probably suffers from indigestion as it has eaten too much and lacks exercise. How much do you feed it every day?’ Ana asked after making her diagnosis.
‘ In addition to its own share, it also ate your war beast's share. I saw that your war beast wasn't eating so ...’ Fiona told with a little hesitation and embarrassment.
‘ I told you earlier also to stop feeding it so much raw meat. You just don't listen to me. From tommorow, you should go to the kitchen and get some sweet potatoes and vegetables for it. Don't let it eat meat anymore. Also, at lunch time, take it out for a walk and let it bask in the sun for some time. In this way, your time of training or practicing will not be affected and your war beast will be in good shape ’, Ana suggested.
‘ But, is that enough?’ Fiona seemed unsure about Ana's simple suggestion.
‘ You just take care of your tiger like I told you. After three days, your tiger will be energetic again!’ Ana said with great confidence.
At that point, they heard the drum, which indicated that it was dinner time.
‘ Don't forget what you have promised me’, Ana reminded. She quickly picked up Ananta, who was jumping happily on the ground and walked out of room for dinner.
At the dinner hall, Ananta didn't stop jumping. It behaved like a child with hyper kinetic syndrome, which soon attracted the attention of the other young people dining in the hall. They all had known that Ana's war beast was born with a disability. But after a few days, suddenly it was bouncing so happily.
‘ Hey, wasn't your war beast supposed to be disabled since it was born? How is it able to move normally all of a sudden?’ someone, who couldn't control thier curiosity, asked Ana.
‘ It's a secret!’ Ana said softly and left them in suspense intentionally.

Not long ago, Ana had defeated two young trainees. She had shown the strength possessed by one at the second grade of mortal stage, which had surprised all of them. Now, on seeing Ana's disabled war beast suddenly moving normally, they began to look at Ana in a different way. But it was still not enough to make them look at Ana with respect, because the idea that Ana was a good for nothing person had been deeply rooted in thier minds.
After dinner, Ana went to the kitchen to ask for a small empty bottle. Then she went directly to the clear pond in the depths of the bamboo grove with Ananta in her arms. She wanted to store Ananta's magical saliva. She wanted to directly store it in the small empty bottle, which would be convenient for her current use and could also be used in the future. Earlier, she had to take the magical saliva from Ananta 's mouth before each practice and she found it very troublesome, so she came up with such an idea.
But after she dropped three drops of saliva from Ananta's mouth into the small empty bottle, she couldn't get anymore, and Ananta was now looking a little list less.
‘ Does it mean that I can get only three drops of the magical saliva per day?’ Ananta frowned and immediately began to feel a little distressed. Had she known the fact earlier, she would have collected more of the magical saliva at the beginning.
Ana diluted the magical saliva with a little water. She drank it and began to practice as usual. After the practice, she also studied the dragon spirit mark on her left arm. She was making an effort to find out what was the special part about her dragon spiritual power.
In a blink of an eye, the night passed away. Early next morning, Ana didn't go back for training. To punish her for her brawl, Mia sent her to the kitchen to do the scouring work for three days, so she went straight to the kitchen.
‘ So, it is you who's been punished to do chores in the kitchen’, one of the cooks commented the moment Ana entered the kitchen. The cook's name was Jerry . He was always nice to Ana when he saw Ana have dinner with Ananta.
‘ Is there anything I can do for you?’ Ana asked with a bitter smile.
‘ Well, the ingredients in the kitchen are running out. I'm going to the bazaar outside the palace to buy some. I need a person to help me. If you don't mind, you could come along with me for the shopping’, Jerry suggested politely.
‘ Outside the palace?’ Ana repeated and her eyes flickered with excitement. She didn't have any chance earlier to see the world outside the palace as she had been staying in the palace since her soul came to this era. Thus, she eager to get onto the unexpected trip outside the palace. At once, she replied, ‘ I'll love to go with you’,
After some quick preparations. Jerry drove an empty carriage, accompanied by Ana and her war beast.
They headed towards the bazaar immediately. After passing through the dragon field and several gates of the palace which were heavily guarded, they got out of the palace. Then they crossed the moat surrounding the palace across a huge stone bridge, and passed through an extremely magnificent gate.
Finally, Ana saw ancient business streets bustling with people making it quiet noisy.
As Jerry was driving the carriage along one of the streets, Ana was dazzled by the many things she saw. She saw carriages, horses, a vast crowd and the straight, spacious and crisscrossed streets made of ancient stones, rows of ancient buildings extending all the way to the end of the street, and the shops on both sides of the street, which were selling all kinds of stuff.
Soon, Ana spotted many spirit manipulators carrying thier own war beasts. Some of them were even inferior to a one star war beast. Also, some of the spirit manipulators didn't even reach first grade of mortal stage, but they had the nerve to swagger at the street with a proud look on thier faces. Ana even noticed that when the ordinary crowd saw them, they immediately stepped aside to make way for them. They didn't dare to provoke them.
‘ Ana thought, secretly laughing.
Along the way, Ana also saw a lot of shops selling various war beasts. Unfortunately, she could not get off the carriage to have a look at them.
Before long, the carriage entered a very lively bazaar, which had a supply all kind of food and ingredients. The bazaar was full of people.
‘ Jerry said as he got out of the carriage.
‘ Ana replied energetically. Quickly, she got out of the carriage, took the rein of the horse, and followed Jerry, who began to buy ingredients.
‘Jerry instructed her.
‘ Ana expressed her sincere appreciation. It was a pleasant surprise and her eyes were gleaming with joy. Soon, she left Jerry and began to wander around leisurely.

I took his hand and gasped at the delicious shockwaves traveling up my arm. He pulled me closer to him, so I was standing in between his legs. I wasn't sure what to say, so I ran my fingers through his hair, noticing for the first time the bits of red streaked through the dark brown, and smiled when he growled in delight. He leaned his forehead down, so it was resting on my belly and wrapped his arms around my back. "We should talk about this." He whispered with his head still on my stomach. I nearly didn't hear him. I was too focused on the sparks tingling through my arms as I caressed his back and continued my gentle assault through his hair."Ok. What should we talk about?" He took a deep breath and I watched as his shoulders slumped."I'll understand if you reject me. No one wants a defective mate."Cover made by @ViaAlyssaNicole
