Chapter 2138: Morning Surprise (Part 2)

"See, Mom? Nothing to worry about." Aran tried and failed to console his mother.

"Okay, but why did you take the appearance of a little girl? How old are you?" Elina asked.

"Because I'm eight this year. I've always been just one year older than Aran so in my human form I look like this." Onyx said.

"But you were so big and strong! How can you be this young?" Elina stuttered every word while Raaz brought her a dressing gown.

"Magical beasts grow quickly in order to survive. We can't afford to remain cubs for a long time like you humans do. Also, as a magical beast I was young, but as an Emperor Beast with a life expectancy of 3000 years I'm an infant." Onyx replied. 

"Seriously, Mom, why are making all this fuss?" Lith said as Tista opened and closed the door of her own room after noticing the presence of the Guardian butler.
