Chapter 520: What a useless feature

On Super Dormant Star, it turned out that human and Pet restrooms were shared. Indeed, she should go out more often, otherwise, she wouldn’t even know this… Qiao Sang felt like her knowledge had expanded once again.

One minute later.

“Are you done?” Qiao Sang asked patiently.

There was no movement inside the restroom.

Three minutes later, Qiao Sang asked with some urgency, “Still not done?”

Still no movement inside.

Five minutes later, Qiao Sang couldn’t wait any longer and knocked on the restroom door.

With the knock, the door opened a crack.

Qiao Sang suddenly realized something was wrong. She pushed the door open to find nothing inside; there was no Pet using the restroom.

She looked up and saw an open window.

Good heavens, it had already left, making her wait for so long… Qiao Sang grumbled as she entered the restroom stall.

…

When Qiao Sang returned to the banquet hall, You Na asked thoughtfully:

“Did you eat something bad? Should I call the family doctor to come and check on you?”

Qiao Sang refused, “I’m fine, no need to trouble the doctor.”

You Na smiled, “It’s no trouble. My family doctor has a Wood Bud that only knows Healing. It’s just one skill.”

Qiao Sang’s mouth twitched, “I’m really fine.”

Just as You Na was about to say something more, Tang Yi interjected, “Qiao Sang has a Pet that’s known as the ‘Divine Healer’ in our area. If she were really unwell, she could heal herself.”

Divine Healer? You Na became interested and asked, “What’s that Pet called?”

“Ice Kexilu,” Qiao Sang replied.

You Na looked at Qiao Sang, “Can you summon that Pet? I want to see how ‘Healing’ it really is.”

Qiao Sang chuckled, “No one’s injured, so how can you tell if it’s ‘Healing’ or not?”

“That’s simple,” You Na smiled. “The butler just reported that a wild Pet broke in. When we catch it, we’ll let it suffer a bit, then you can have your Ice Ke Xilu heal it. I’ll see how well it recovers.”

Qiao Sang’s smile faded, “Is that really necessary? Maybe it just wandered in by accident.”

You Na paused, then laughed, “Are you people from Blue Star all so kind to wild Pets?”

Qiao Sang and Tang Yi exchanged a glance with You Na, remaining silent.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit off, You Na’s expression became slightly more serious:

“Most wild Pets are dangerous. This area belongs to my private domain, and it shouldn’t have intruded. Have you considered that there’s a banquet going on right now? What if it hurts someone? Isn’t it right to catch it and teach it a lesson?”

This was the first time Qiao Sang so clearly perceived the difference in attitudes towards Pets between Blue Star and Super Dormant Star.

She wasn’t someone with a saintly heart, so she could understand how people on Super Dormant Star thought.

Imagine if she had first transmigrated to Super Dormant Star, and even worse, lived in the Lower Tenth District, where wild Pets were everywhere and would attack humans from time to time. She would definitely associate Pets with the word “danger” at all times.

Different environments create different perceptions; she had always understood this principle.

She also couldn’t say something like, “It hasn’t hurt anyone yet.” She didn’t know who the intruding wild Pet was or what its personality was like.

If someone got hurt, it would be too late.

But it was because she had initially transmigrated to Blue Star. You Na’s words clearly implied mistreating the wild Pet after catching it, and she couldn’t just stand by and watch someone abuse a Pet that had only intruded.

Qiao Sang thought for a moment and asked:

“Don’t humans and wild Pets live together here? Would a wild Pet know this is a private domain? I heard that on Super Dormant Star, it’s quite common to wake up and find a Pet suddenly beside you.”

You Na smiled again upon hearing this:

“It’s true that we live together, but what you’re describing only happens in the Middle Ten Districts and the Lower Tenth District. In our Upper Tenth District, wild Pets are managed by a dedicated department. Once a wild Pet is deemed dangerous, it will be sent to the Lower Tenth District or…”

You Na’s smile became meaningful here, “As for private domains, wild Pets in the Upper Tenth District don’t casually enter human residences, otherwise, they wouldn’t be allowed to stay.”

Tang Yi asked in confusion, “Didn’t you say the Lower Tenth District is mostly ordinary people? Sending dangerous wild Pets to the Lower Tenth District, wouldn’t that be even more dangerous?”

“That’s unavoidable,” You Na casually took a glass of champagne from a server and continued:

“Wild Pets are everywhere on Super Dormant Star, and there are many powerful ones among them. If we exterminate all wild Pets, we humans would also suffer.”

“Actually, highly intelligent wild Pets understand this principle too, so the Lower Tenth District isn’t as dangerous as you imagine. There are high-level wild Pets there that manage the lower-level wild Pets, so there won’t be any large-scale attacks on humans.”

Ordinary people and low-level Pets have no say at all. Indeed, on Super Dormant Star, strength is everything… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly, then returned to the main topic:

“You’ve considered that people on Blue Star treat Pets better, so you should also consider that Pets on Blue Star wouldn’t just stand by and watch another Pet be punished, especially when the only purpose is to demonstrate a Healing skill.”

You Na paused, then asked, “Even if you tell your Pet to, it won’t listen?”

Qiao Sang looked calmly at You Na and said faintly, “I won’t force them to do things they don’t want to do.”

“Xun!”

Xiao Xunbao, who was invisibly eating nearby, nodded in agreement, but suddenly, it fell into deep thought.

Going to school, does that count as being forced…

Unnoticed, behind a nearby curtain, a purple head peeked out, watching everything.

You Na pondered for a few seconds, then quickly smiled again, “I understand.”

If the person in front of her were just an ordinary Interstellar Exchange Student, she would have ended the conversation due to differing philosophies.

But the girl in front of her had truly heaven-defying talent. Even though she wasn’t from Super Dormant Star, she was highly valued by the school board. They still had a semester to spend together, so she had to consider her feelings.

At this moment, the lights in the entire banquet hall brightened.

“They actually made their choice so quickly,” You Na said, surprised, looking at Miss Filis walking onto the stage.

“What kind of Pet is that?” Qiao Sang asked.

Her gaze also fell on the stage, but she was looking at the Pet.

Before You Na could speak, Tang Yi, who had been paying attention to the stage, spoke first:

“It’s a Co-Tear Bud, a Fairy-type Pet. It has Natural Recovery and Co-Tear as its abilities.”

Natural Recovery, when a Pet exits battle, abnormal conditions will slowly be healed… Qiao Sang’s mind flashed with relevant knowledge, and she asked:

“What is the Co-Tear ability?”

She hadn’t seen this ability in any books yet.

“It means that when a Pet with this ability cries, people within a certain range will also be emotionally affected and feel like crying,” You Na explained.

What a useless ability… Qiao Sang couldn’t help but grumble.
