After being tormented by the terror of the Lord of a Thousand Eyes for 90 days and dying 1,068 times, An Xi went completely mad.
When she opened her eyes again, she had crawled back from hell to the world of the living. The pendant shaped like a Mother Tree of Desire on her chest whispered of a divine gift: fish for the desires of countless worlds, forge bizarre traits, and raise a pet beast of her own.
While others awakened talents that let them summon divine beasts, she bonded with an octopus that cost fifty yuan for three jin at the wet market. Faced with the battle-general-class Thunderflight Tiger her father had given her and her status as the An family’s second daughter, she coldly refused. “My pet beast can only be this one.”
On her first desire-fishing expedition, she locked in three traits:
[Best Friend]: Every creature in the universe wants to cuddle up to you, then eat you;
[Feast]: Eat a “friend” and randomly inherit one of their skills. The more you chow down, the stronger you get;
[Monster Girl]: The octopus turns into a little girl, with tentacles and an innate racial aura of dominance.
From then on, Qixia Academy had a new unhinged duo:
The mad heroine wields the Eye of the Abyss, able to see through the weaknesses of all things, yet becomes a “viral delicacy” in the Abyssal Realm;
The adorable monster girl Naya may look sweet, but her catchphrase is “Friend, yummy!” She evolves by devouring others, unlocking transcendent skills along the way.
The world of beast tamers is shrouded in mist. The moon hides countless watching eyes, abyssal creatures are stirring, and her father, a Radiant Moon-class commander, watches from the shadows as she follows the same mysterious path as her mother.
“Hungry?” An Xi held the tentacled girl’s hand, her smile both dangerous and captivating. “Come on. Let’s find you a bigger ‘friend’...”
