Chapter 1345: A Sudden Fall Out
Gregory sighed deeply, then walked towards the cave entrance. With his back facing Gu Mengmeng, he said, “If you want to leave, just leave. I’m not stopping you.”
After he said that, he extended his wings and flew away, with his back view disappearing in the snowstorm.
The location of the cave was unique – there were protruding rocks above the cave entrance, so snow could not pile up to block the entrance. Elvis and Lea dug more space deeper into the cave and with a few more turns inside, the cold wind could not reach Gu Mengmeng. Moreover, with either Elvis or Lea using their original beast form to hug Gu Mengmeng and block the wind, she did not feel any cold.
But…
Despite the large space, she still felt imprisoned.
Even though she had also been staying in a cave at Saint Nazaire, staying at home and being trapped brought her two different feelings.
Lea leaned against the cave entrance and looked down. He shook his head and laughed bitterly. “With such a height, if we tried to dig all the way down, we probably have to dig until the next messenger of the Beast Deity is born.”
Gu Mengmeng pouted and was displeased when she said, “Why is Gregory so weird? How could he fall out with us so suddenly? When he saved us initially, I still thought he was a kind person.”
Elvis stroked Gu Mengmeng’s little face and kissed her frowning brows, saying, “All the males in the beast world can be good partners but none of them will be a ‘kind person’. Your definition of ‘kind person’ does not exist in the beast world.”
Gu Mengmeng twisted her lips and thought that it was true.
With a frowning face, she said, “What do we do now? He just flew away like this. We also can’t fly. Not only are we unable to return to Saint Nazaire, we cannot even leave here.”
Lea wagged his tail and said, “Don’t worry, he won’t let us die of hunger here.”
Gu Mengmeng muttered under her breath, “But I don’t want to stay here throughout winter…”
Elvis pinched Gu Mengmeng’s little face and said, “Don’t be angry, there will always be a way.”
Gregory trapped Gu Mengmeng here just so that she could stay by his side for a longer time and for him to have a chance for him to develop feelings with her.
He likes Gu Mengmeng, so he would not harm her. The only ones threatened were only Elvis and Lea, after all their deaths would be the most advantageous to him.
He did not have to use a complicated scheme. So long as Gregory did not appear for a long time, and not deliver any food, in order for Gu Mengmeng to not starve, Elvis and Lea would definitely use their own flesh to feed Gu Mengmeng. After Gu Mengmeng eats Elvis and Lea and starve for a long time, Gregory would appear again and win over her hearts without much effort.
In the beast world, it was not new for males to use underhand means to become partners with the females they liked. Elvis and Lea also would not criticize Gregory for being despicable because courting a female was dependent on their own capabilities. If both of them were to die here, they could only blame it on their incapability.
Lea laughed softly and was not concerned about the choice that Gregory might make.
So long as Gu Mengmeng was safe, he was not bothered about his own death.
Moreover, the above method might be useful to other females, but not necessarily so for Gu Mengmeng.
Judging from her personality, even if they cooked themselves for her, she would rather die than take a bite.
