After being fed to top-tier orcs, I became the darling of the entire intergalactic world.

Chapter 409 It's called Little Black, so who am I?!

Just as the black horse was about to 'jump into the sea and commit suicide,' suddenly, a giant beast with colorful black scales emerged from the sea and roared, startling the black horse to a stop.

It was stubborn, but it only wanted to scare the human on its back and get her to leave; it didn't really intend to die!

"Neigh—Neigh!!!"

Little Black, whose horse had been pulled back several times, looked up at the giant sea beast with trembling fear.

The human on its back, however, looked at the other side with great joy.

"Little Black?!"

???

The black horse tilted its head slightly, looking puzzled, and grunted twice, signaling to the human on its back not to call out to it in this dangerous situation—what if it attracted the attention of a giant beast?!

"Pfft-"

Liang He, noticing that the black horse was frightened, suddenly laughed and reached out to pat the black horse's head.

"Where did that unstoppable drive you had just displayed go? How did it all disappear so suddenly?"

Liang He, who was teasing the dark horse, was doing it on purpose.

Who told this guy to be so stubborn? He even tried to scare her by threatening to drown himself. He needs to be taught a lesson.

"Neigh—neigh..."

Just as the dark horse was about to retort, it noticed that the giant beast was looking at it with hostility, and immediately became much more restrained.

A look of satisfaction flashed in Elius's large, dark eyes at its relatively pragmatic behavior.

"Okay, so he's the beast I told you about, the one named Xiao Hei, just like you."

???

Upon hearing Liang He's words, Elius and Black Horse both fell silent.

Dark Horse: His name is Little Black??? He's clearly Super Black!!!
"...It's also called Little Black?"

A deep sound echoed across the sea. Elius gritted his teeth, his breath, as sharp as a hurricane, swept across the surface of the water.

If Liang He hadn't been still on horseback, he would definitely have tried to secretly kill the horse that shared his name.

"Yes, isn't that a coincidence?"

Liang He smiled gently, a hint of cunning in her eyes, clearly teasing Elius on purpose.

However, when she saw Elius in his beast form, she was actually surprised as expected.

I thought it was just my imagination, but I never expected it to be real.

"Little Black, your beast form is so cool! It's a dragon!"

It's unclear when exactly, but Elius's horns had fully grown, though he hadn't noticed because he had been appearing in human form all this time.

Elius, who thought he was just an enlarged version of the little black snake, was surprised to hear Liang He's words and looked down, trying to see his own appearance clearly in the reflection of the sea.

Unfortunately, the waves kept rolling, and he couldn't see his face at all.

"I...am a dragon?"

Elius had heard about the legend of dragons from Liang He and knew about the Blue Star people's belief in dragons.

He never expected that his beast form would actually be a dragon.

"Yes."

In fact, Elius briefly showed his beast form when he was kidnapped by Rick on Skalan last time.

However, the situation was critical at the time, Elius's dragon horns had not fully grown in, and Liang He had to cooperate with the acting, so she did not observe carefully.

"You must be a black dragon, after all, snakes don't have scales."

Recalling her battle with Elius, when he was still in his black mist form, Liang He noticed that Elius's beast form had iridescent black scales.

Therefore, when the little black snake appeared, Liang He had a slight suspicion.

At the time, Elius was deliberately trying to provoke Liang He, and Liang He was very confident in her abilities, so she didn't think much of it.

Because she firmly believed that any conspiracy or trickery is useless in the face of absolute power.

"So, I'm not a monster after all..."

For some reason, Elius's eyes suddenly reddened. Fortunately, he knew this was not the time to talk about these things, and he forced back his sorrowful emotions.

Before the others arrived, Elius transformed back into human form.

Black Horse, who witnessed all of this, was deeply filled with suspicion.

"咴咴～"

The black horse, which had been sliding down its knees very quickly, now even made a lot of groaning sounds.

Even so, it still displeased Elius.

"You can't call him Xiao Hei, change his name!"

"Little Black" is his exclusive nickname. How dare a horse try to take it from him? Humph!
"..."

The black horse snorted silently twice, not daring to resist, and could only keep raising its hooves.

Hmm... it's just that its legs are sore from standing for so long.

"Pfft haha~ Little Black, how can you be so cute?"

Liang He's cry of "Little Black!" drew the attention of both Elius and the Black Horse.

Fortunately, Liang He called for Elius, otherwise he might have actually done something like dyeing a black horse white.

After all, in his mind, he and Black Horse were both called Little Black because of their black appearance.

"Ahem... Let's go back first."

When Liang He suddenly praised him, Elius touched his nose a little embarrassedly.

He played mahjong with Cedril and the others last night and didn't go back to his room to rest until dawn.

If the earthquake hadn't been so loud that it woke him up, and if he hadn't happened to see Liang He riding a horse straight to the sea from the window, he wouldn't have panicked and transformed into a beast to stop her.

"Then let's take...it and the rose back to the horse farm together."

Knowing that Elius was jealous of Black Horse, Liang He stopped calling Black Horse "Little Black." In terms of closeness, she naturally cared more about her own beast's feelings.

"it is good."

Elius, not wanting Liang He to continue riding the black horse, devised a clever plan to have Liang He ride the rose back to the horse farm.

He rode his black horse behind Liang He, watching her retreating figure with satisfaction.

"Liang He! You're back!"

On the way to the horse farm, you'll pass a lawn where you'll run into Leila and her friends.

Elius's roar had echoed throughout the entire island, and they had naturally heard it as well.

“Mr. Eli is here too.”

It seems that the roar just now came from Elius.

Evelyn and Lyra, who understood the situation, exchanged a silent glance and did not intend to ask any further questions.

"Yes, I plan to send them back first."

Liang He hadn't forgotten what she had just said: if the black horse really wanted to leave, Liang He was willing to help it.

After all, given this horse's temperament, if it fails to escape this time, it will try again.

Next time, they might not be able to be subdued as successfully as they have now. If casualties occur, the dark horse might be eliminated on humanitarian grounds.

"Alright, let's go back to the castle first and have the kitchen prepare some more delicious food."

Everyone was more or less frightened, especially the ordinary staff, so it was necessary to comfort them properly.

Of course, it's not just about food; there will also be more practical compensation.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

After agreeing to meet them at the restaurant, Liang He led Elius onward toward the horse farm.

Evelyn and Lyra, watching Elius and the Black Horse quietly and obediently follow her, couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.

"As expected, taming a wild horse is not something an ordinary person can do."

Evelyn, with a double meaning in her words, turned around, took Bebe's little hand, and led her back.
