Chapter 200 - Incubating Eggs and Hibernating

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Curtis spoke so calmly that it was as if he was talking about someone else.

Bai Qingqing gave Curtis a shocked glance before apologizing to him. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have asked.”

“It’s okay.” Curtis gave her a small smile. His eyes flashed with bloodthirst as he recalled his childhood memories.

He didn’t have food when he was young, so he ate his siblings. This doubled the amount of energy in his body and allowed him to quickly gain hunting abilities. He probably wouldn’t have reached his current level if he didn’t do that back then.

Bai Qingqing held Curtis’s hand and looked at the snake eggs as she said with determination, “I’ll definitely take good care of them.”

I will! Yeah, I definitely won’t fear them.

“Do I… have to incubate the eggs?” Bai Qingqing thought about the hen at her grandfather’s house that would incubate its eggs and instantly felt the food in her throat become stuck. She swallowed the food with much difficulty before asking, “How should I do it? Will the eggs spoil if I don’t incubate them immediately?”

Bai Qingqing then quickly picked up the grass at her feet and carefully placed it below the eggs. She also meticulously arranged the eggs so that they wouldn’t roll about.

Curtis’s heart welled up with intense jealousy upon hearing that Bai Qingqing wanted to incubate the eggs herself. He tightened his snake tail and just barely managed to restrain the urge to smash the eggs.

Nothing had ever been written in the legacy about a female who could incubate eggs. Snow could just give all her love to him. Why did she have to give so much of it to these things?

“Uuu!” Parker sensed the abnormal change in Curtis’s behavior with his animal instincts and glowered at him with his golden eyes. Curtis quickly snapped out of his thoughts and immediately concealed his hostility towards the snake eggs.

Bai Qingqing didn’t notice the brief period of tension as she was still reveling in the joy of being a new mother. She was trying her best to convince herself. Yes. The eggs are adorable. If I look at them more, I won’t be scared of them in the future.

“Sss~” Curtis flicked his tongue. It was getting colder. He stroked Bai Qingqing’s head and said, “The incubation of eggs is a lot of work. You can leave it to me. The weather’s getting colder, anyway.”

“Are you going to hibernate?” Bai Qingqing felt that it was happening too suddenly. “How long are you going to sleep? Are you only going to wake up when the weather gets warmer?”

Curtis had a low body temperature, to begin with, and it would definitely be lower in the winter. Would he be able to incubate the eggs?

“The eggs will have hatched by the time I wake up. Don’t worry,” Curtis said in a calm manner that made him sound convincing.

Bai Qingqing hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed. “Then you should eat more before you hibernate. Thank goodness you caught a few preys yesterday.”

“Here, Qingqing,” Parker said and grinned. He secretly rejoiced. This is great! The snake beastman’s going to hibernate, so Qingqing will belong to me for the whole winter! Hooooowl!

After Bai Qingqing finished her food, Curtis began to dig a hole against the wall in a corner of the bedroom with his bare hands. Before long, he dug a hole large enough for him to curl up inside.

The dark and empty hole had such a small entrance that only Curtis could slither into it.

Bai Qingqing walked to the hole to take a look and found it familiar.

Wait a minute. Isn’t this a smaller version of the cave where I found the snakeskin? I knew it. How could there have been a hole like that by the lake? The cave must have been dug by Curtis.

After Curtis ate his fill, he picked up the bamboo basket and slithered into the hole.

“Wait.” Bai Qingqing walked over with a pile of dried grass. “Go into the hole first. I’ll give you some grass so that it’ll be easier to incubate the eggs and you can sleep better.”

Every time Curtis went into hibernation, he only prioritized his safety. It didn’t matter how uncomfortable he was as long as he could sleep. This was the first time someone cared about him. His heart suddenly softened.

“Okay.” Curtis transformed into a snake. His upper body only transformed back into a human’s after he had climbed into the hole. Bai Qingqing shoved the grass into the hole, and Curtis reached out to take it.

As soon as she fell into the world of beastmen, a leopard forcibly took her back to his home. Indeed, Bai Qingqing is at a complete and utter loss. The males in this world are all handsome beyond compare, while the women are all so horrid that even the gods shudder at their sight. As a first-rate girl from the modern world (she’s also a quarter Russian), Bai Qingqing finds herself sitting at the center of a harem filled with beautiful men — at the very peak of existence.
