The Little Monster Manor

[Complete] [Next up: Opening a Shop and Raising Cubs in an Infinite Game. Blurb below.] Blurb: After the two male yao, Lu Xingmang and Jiang Yao, got married, they couldn't help staring whenever they saw other people's little cubs. When the Yao Realm launched its “Endangered Yao Rescue Program,” they found out that joining the program meant they could raise cubs. They immediately downloaded the app and signed up! The app notified them: “Creating a habitat for endangered yao is extremely difficult.” Then they easily created a Golden Lychee Grove, a Five-Spirit Creek, a Two-Tone Lake, and more, all suitable for yao to be born in... The app notified them: “Even with a suitable habitat, endangered yao are extremely difficult to bring into the world.” Then they raised one, two, three... nine cubs?! - After getting married, Lu Xingmang and Jiang Yao both assumed their spouse was human. Lu Xingmang: Dad's taking care of the kids. As long as Dad stays alive, that's good enough. Jiang Yao is doing great for a human. Jiang Yao: Taking care of the whole family is my responsibility! My human wife only needs to look beautiful! Then one day, Jiang Yao saw a pair of fluffy wings grow out of Lu Xingmang's back, while Lu Xingmang saw sparkling little horns sprout from Jiang Yao's head. - Bonus scene Long Li, who had Taotie blood, was the fiercest big brother in the entire Yao Realm! If any of his younger siblings dared to mess with him, he'd swallow them whole! Later, his younger siblings begged him every day: “Big brother, we want to play hide-and-seek in your belly!” The big brother was devastated. - Lu Xingmang is the recipient, Jiang Yao is the top. A silly slice-of-life story about a doting couple of yao who both think their spouse is human, running a manor and raising cubs. - ★ Pre-release: Opening a Shop and Raising Cubs in a Horror Game.

He was a safe, working NPC. Every day, he made money at the item shop and raised a group of ugly-cute cubs. Over his four years on the job, Xia Lin raised every cub from infancy to adulthood, and maxed out each one's affection for him. When his contract ended, Xia Lin left the infinite game and lost all his memories of it. Afterward, he often dreamed of feeding a nine-headed bird, massaging a zombified wolf, untangling the twenty-eight tangled tentacles of a little octopus, and praising them as the cutest cubs in the world. Xia Lin: ...What's wrong with my sense of beauty?! - Later, his stepbrother, who had hated him for years, shoved an invitation into his hands. Xia Lin was caught off guard and dragged back into the world of infinite games. His stepbrother smiled viciously, looking forward to watching Xia Lin, who couldn't fight or kill, die horribly in the game. Then he saw The ultimate boss, the Zombie Wolf King, had just dealt the players a brutal blow. But when he saw Xia Lin, he suddenly flopped onto his back, wriggled around, and showed his belly, whining for pets. He moved as if he'd done it ten thousand times before. - On the day Xia Lin returned, the mission announcement, usually a cold mechanical voice counting down to the players' deaths, suddenly became full of emotion: “Daddy!” “Daddy!!” “Daddy!!!” Every player fighting for survival froze in shock. But amid all the cries of “Daddy,” no one heard a barely audible sigh “Xiao Lin, now that you're back...” “I'll never let you leave again.” - Pairing: Xia Lin is the recipient, one-eyed two-winged black cat is the top - Theme: Happiness is something you work for
