I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

Upon hearing Viya's words, Youhaka was also confused about what "special time" meant. Seeing Youhaka's puzzled expression, Viya realized that Youhaka was not from Pandora and it was normal for him not to know these things.

"Yes, because during the monsoon festival, the winds bring large groups of creatures that have migrated here, which allows us to hunt a lot of prey at this time to ensure that our food reserves are enough to get through the winter festival."

After hearing Viya's explanation, Yuhaka understood what the so-called Monsoon Festival was. It was roughly like a group of animals migrating to find new habitats, and Viya and her friends wanted to take this opportunity to hunt those migrating creatures.

Because of Yuhaka, Viya's tribe also gained access to a variety of seasonings and recipes, which led them to start researching which animals and cooking methods were most delicious.

"Hunting? Youyou wants to go too! OwO~"

Upon hearing Yuhaka's words, Viya excitedly replied to Yuhaka:

"Hmm! Actually, I also wanted to invite Lady Youyou to come hunting with us. Because the other tribes don't have enough people right now, it's a bit difficult for us to make a large-scale operation plan. So I wanted Sister Jilin and the others to come and participate in this Monsoon Festival as well! I don't know if they have time."

After hearing Viya's words, Yuhaka thought for a moment. In terms of the family members in Yuhaka's house, there wasn't much to do. Apart from Sirin and Rin possibly going to the dark world, Connor was going to school.

Then, Yuhaka asked Viya when the Monsoon Festival would begin. Upon hearing Yuhaka's question, Viya searched the wooden tablet on the table with inscriptions. After finding the hunter's reconnaissance report, Viya spoke to Yuhaka:

"Hmm... If the hunters' reports are accurate, I think we can begin the Monsoon Festival activities tomorrow."

After receiving Viya's reply, Youhaka thought about it. Tomorrow was the weekend, and Kanna didn't have to go to school. He wondered if Kanna was going to visit her friend.

As Yuhaka was about to go back and ask Sirin and the others if they had time, Viya suddenly grabbed Yuhaka's big tail. Yuhaka had no choice but to stop and turn around, looking at Viya with a puzzled expression, as if asking her if there was anything else. Then, seeing the slightly embarrassed look on Viya's face, Yuhaka said:

"Um, Lady Youyou, could you spend a little time with me?"

"O-O?"

Hearing Viya's words, Youhaka looked a little confused. Obviously, Youhaka didn't know why Viya had asked him to stay. Then, Youhaka smelled a familiar scent.

“OwO~”

..................................................................................

The next day, Yuhaka took Jilin and the others to Viya's tribe. When they arrived, Viya greeted Jilin and the others. However, when Viya saw the two little ones, Yuji and Yulin, who were with Yuhaka, she was a little confused. After all, Viya had not seen these two little ones before, and their appearance was somewhat similar to Yuhaka's, making Viya think that they were of the same kind as Yuhaka.

Ji Lin greeted Viya and said:

"Good morning, Viya, we've come to visit!"

Upon hearing Ji Lin's words, Viya waved her hand and said to Ji Lin:

"Welcome to Pandora, Sister Ji Lin, and... who are these two?"

Upon hearing Viya's question, Ji Lin smiled and explained to Viya:

"This child is named Yuuki, and this child is named Yurin. They are my and Master Yuuki's children~"

"O-O???"

Chapter 1002 [Shocking Viya]

Upon hearing Ji Lin's words, Viya showed a bewildered expression, clearly not quite understanding what was happening. However, once she came to her senses, she looked at the two little ones, Youji and Youlin, with a shocked expression.

"You, Youyou, and Sister Jilin, your child?!"

Viya was surprised that Ji Lin had twins with Yuhaka. She was also quite surprised when she met Tiamat with little Titi at Yuhaka's house before, but it had only been a few days and Ji Lin already had children. This made Viya feel a bit of pressure, knowing that her mother was always watching her and saying that she was not good enough.

Is this her fault?

Seeing Viya's stunned expression, Ji Lin waved his hand in front of her with a puzzled look and said:

"Viya? What's wrong?"

Realizing what was happening, Viya quickly waved her little hand and explained to Ji Lin:

"No, no, nothing's wrong. But compared to those things... Sister Ji Lin, these two children... I don't remember seeing them last time I went there."

Upon hearing Viya's question, Ji Lin explained the situation regarding Youji and You Lin's children to Viya:

“Youji and Yulin were born a few days ago, so it’s normal that you haven’t met them, Viya.”

After hearing Ji Lin's answer, Viya nodded in understanding. However, looking at the two little girls, each about 125cm tall, Viya couldn't help but twitch her lips. They didn't look like they had been born just a few days ago. Ji Lin patted the little ones, Youji and Youlin, on the head and said to them:

"Alright, Yuki, Yurin, say hello to Viya's mother."

After hearing their mother's words, Yuki and Yurin looked at Viya with curiosity. After all, they had never seen Viya before, so they were very curious about her. Viya's appearance was quite different from that of Xilin and the others, and her hair, which looked like a breathing light, also attracted the attention of the two little ones.

So the two little ones also gathered around Viya and looked at her curiously. Viya seemed a little at a loss as she was being stared at by the two children, after all, she gave off a different vibe than Bronya and Titi.

The two little ones approached Viya and sniffed her. They smelled a very pleasant scent on her, and most importantly, they could smell Yuhaka on her. This made the little ones press their heads close to Viya and sniff her indiscriminately. Viya, looking a little embarrassed, said to the two little ones:

"Wait, Yuuki, Yurin, stop sniffing me like that!!"

"Hahaha... Alright, you two little guys, stop bothering others."

Seeing the two little ones huddle together near Viya, Ji Lin smiled helplessly and lifted them up. Once lifted, Yuki and Yu Lin immediately quieted down, only their large tails occasionally wagging. After seeing Ji Lin pull the two little ones apart, Viya breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest, saying:

"Phew... these two little ones are just like Master Youyou..."

Hearing Viya's words, Ji Lin also showed a slightly embarrassed expression and said to Viya:

"I'm the same way, except I'm a bit too lively, and I disappear without a trace if you're not careful."

When Viya heard Ji Lin's words, she looked at the two little guys in Ji Lin's hands who were now very well-behaved. She didn't expect these two little guys to be such a headache.

Viya also knew about Bronya and Titi. In Viya's impression, Bronya was a very well-behaved child who just didn't like to move around much, which made Viya a little worried about Bronya's health. However, when she heard that Bronya would ride a motorcycle to deliver food during work hours, Viya's impression of Bronya changed slightly from a child who didn't like sports to a child who was slightly averse to sports.

However, Viya wasn't quite sure what was on the motorcycle. According to Ji Lin's explanation, it seemed to be a vehicle that could move on its own, which reminded Viya of the vehicles with four round wheels used by the outsiders who had invaded their planet.

As for Xiao Titi, although Viya hadn't met her many times, the child was quite well-behaved and very cute, and looked like her mother.

After Yuhaka and her group arrived at the Niwei tribe where Viya lived, Viya's "parents" came to greet them. The Niwei tribe's high priestess, Lovet, also approached Yuhaka and her group and spoke:

"Welcome, apostles of the Star God."

Upon seeing Viya's mother arrive to greet them, Yuhaka raised her little hand to greet Lovett and said:

Good morning! OwO/~

Rose, the war chief of the Nivi tribe and also Via's father, standing beside Lovett, greeted Yuhaka and said:

"Oh, Lady Youyou, good morning. Today is a perfect day for hunting."

After Rose finished speaking, Lovett elbowed her, signaling that Rose should be a little more serious. Rose, looking innocent, looked at her wife and said:

"Uh... Lovett, there's no need to be so serious..."

Rose hadn't finished speaking when Lovett's death stare silenced her. Meanwhile, Ji Lin, who had overheard the conversation between Lovett and Rose, addressed Lovett and the others:

“Aunt Lovett, there’s really no need to be so formal. We’re family, so there’s no need for all those complicated formalities.”

Hearing Ji Lin's words, Lovett coughed a little embarrassedly and said:

"Ahem, excuse me, Lord Ji Lin, this is necessary etiquette."

Ji Lin understood Lovett's words, since Ji Lin's tribe used to value etiquette, especially after Yuhaka appeared and saved the tribe. Ji Lin had asked Yuhaka if he cared about etiquette, and Yuhaka replied, "What the hell?"

If her father and others found out about this, they would definitely cry.

After exchanging greetings, Yuhaka and the others followed Lovett and the others into the interior of the Niwei tribe. Compared to its relatively shabby appearance before, it has now regained much of its former style. Before long, the Niwei tribe should be able to return to its former prosperity, right?

Chapter 1003 [Viya: Is it my fault?]

In the Niwei tribe's village, Lovett placed a large bowl of cut Pandora special fruit in front of Yuhaka and the others. When they saw Lovett bring the fruit over, Yuki, Yurin, and Titi were attracted. After all, they were children and had little resistance to the temptation of food.

Ji Lin placed a wrapped gift box in front of Lovett and Rose. Lovett and Rose looked at the gift box with puzzled expressions and asked Ji Lin curiously:

"Lord Ji Lin, what is this?"

Regarding Lovett and Rose's questions, Ji Lin looked at Luo Shitu and Rose with some confusion and said:

"Hmm? Doesn't Pandora have the custom of bringing gifts when visiting relatives?"

Upon hearing Ji Lin's question, Viya, who had some knowledge of Earth's customs, told her parents about some things on Earth. After hearing Viya's words, Lovett and Rose understood the meaning behind the gift that Ji Lin had handed over.

After Lovett and Rose accepted their gifts, Ji Lin began to inquire:

"By the way, Aunt Lovett, are there any arrangements for the hunt during the Monsoon Festival?"

"Arrange it?"

Upon hearing Ji Lin's words, Lovett also spoke up to explain:

"For the Monsoon Festival, the first thing to do is to pray to Lady Pandora for a peaceful festival. Then comes the hunting activity, because a large number of animals migrate during the festival, so it is a good time to hunt. After the hunt, the banquet will be held in the evening."

After hearing Lovett's explanation, Ji Lin nodded to indicate that she understood. However, Ji Lin was a little curious about the scale of the so-called monsoon festival animal migration.

Soon, when the time came for the prayer ceremony, Lovett went to prepare for it, while Eohaka and the others went to observe the ceremony. The prayer ceremony was very simple; Lovett, as the High Witch, would perform a dance-like ritual. After the ceremony, Rose took Eohaka and the others to prepare for the hunting activity, which Eohaka also planned to participate in.

At the location of the Nivi tribe's beast nest, the Nivi hunters were gathering. Ji Lin and the others looked at the strangely shaped riding beasts being raised there with surprise. Compared to the monsters in Monster Hunter World, the creatures here looked like aquatic creatures that had evolved into amphibians.

The hunters here each have a pterosaur-like creature by their side. These pterosaur-like creatures are the flying mounts of the Nivi tribe. Ji Lin, seeing these flying mounts, looked at Rose beside him with a puzzled expression and asked:

"Aunt Rose, why do you all use flying mounts to hunt? How do you obtain your prey?"

Upon hearing Ji Lin's question, Rose offered an explanation:

"Don't worry, we'll send out the dragon hunters first, and then other hunters will ride their mounts to find the prey that the dragon hunters have shot down or captured."

After hearing Rose's explanation, Ji Lin said he understood. Soon, Ji Lin saw Yuhaka in his third form with Yuki and Yu Lin, who had also transformed into their third forms. The Niwei hunters looked on with curiosity as they watched Yuhaka with his cubs, since Yuhaka hadn't brought any cubs with him the last time he came.

Looking at the two little ones, Yuuki and Yurin, beside Yuhaka, Rose exclaimed in amazement, her arms crossed:

"As expected of Lady Youyou's children, they seem so energetic. It's just a pity that Viya's child is a bit disappointing; she still doesn't have any children..."

Upon hearing Rose's words, Ji Lin broke out in a cold sweat and turned her head away. She knew that she and Yuhaka had been together for quite some time but still had no children.

"Well... Lady Zelus told me that these things don't happen so quickly, so you can't blame Viya..."

After hearing Ji Lin's explanation, Rose scratched her cheek and looked at Ji Lin curiously, saying:

"Is that so? If that's what the Star God said, then there's nothing we can do but let Viya work hard."

Ji Lin's lips twitched slightly upon hearing Rose's words. With his master Youyou's energy, Viya would probably be so exhausted that she would collapse on the bed and not be able to move.

It was at this moment that Viya, who had taken out a saddle-like tool, looked at Ji Lin, who was chatting with her father, and asked curiously:

"Sister Ji Lin, what are you talking about?"

Hearing Viya's words, Ji Lin waved his hand awkwardly and said:

"It's nothing, just a casual chat. By the way, is that saddle-like thing for Master Youyou?"

After hearing Ji Lin's question, Viya smiled and showed Ji Lin the beast saddle in her hand, saying:

"That's right, this is what Lady Youyou uses. Otherwise, it would be difficult to stand up and shoot arrows while riding on Lady Youyou's back."

Indeed, just as Viya said, Yuhaka's carapace is relatively smooth, making it difficult for him to stand upright. Compared to before, Ji Lin hasn't ridden on Yuhaka's back for a long time. When cleaning the stains on Yuhaka's third form, Ji Lin hasn't climbed onto Yuhaka's back much. After all, Ji Lin is also responsible for household matters and doesn't have much time to go hunting with Yuhaka. Yuhaka, on the other hand, is used to searching for ingredients all over the Monster Hunter world by himself and doesn't take anyone with him. Plus, now that he has the cats, Yuhaka rarely goes out.
