[Sentinel-Guide] The White Lotus Refuses to Be Sucked Dry

A long-form Sentinel and Guide story, followed by an Alpha-Alpha story~ (I've realized I've got these long-form projects lined up so neatly for myself.)

Bai Xi was the textbook example of a rich young master: gentle and even-tempered. But people had always whispered that he was a white lotus because of it. When he came of age and underwent differentiation, Bai Xi proved them right: his spirit animal was a white lotus.

And during his differentiation, he also managed to make everyone around him swoon from his fragrance. Yes, literally.

Everyone who heard about it couldn't help muttering, "Holy crap."

Who knows, maybe this counted as a dream come true?

But with this skill (not really), Bai Xi successfully convinced his parents and his worried older brother to let him go to the White Tower.

Bai Xi was practically over the moon.

It would have been even better if that big dog hadn't kept taking every opportunity to pounce on him, rub against his thighs, and lick his face.

(Hua Yu: My spirit animal is a wolf! A wolf, not a dog! And come back here! Stop licking me! This is so embarrassing!)

(Yes, it's exactly what you think. The dog, crossed out, wolf, and his master are both the shameless sort.)
