Neo) She Stole My Chicken Wing (Patreon)

It did not take long for Princess Feng and Mei Ling to find Neo. After all, the turtle had been walking in a complete circle and was very slow. “Neo!”

“Oh! I finally found you!” Neo smiled as she patted the shell of the turtle, almost making it crash into the ground. “Little Horsey, you did a good job. You brought us to the entrance.”

“Far from it!” Princess Feng shouted. She felt very exhausted! “Neo, you broke two of the barriers keeping the stronger demonic beasts from getting to the new students! The entrance to the mystic realm is in the opposite direction!” 

“Hey, stop yelling at her! Like Neo would be able to do what you are saying!” Mei Ling, who was oblivious to Neo’s true strength, quickly came to Neo’s defense. To her, there was no way Neo could break the barriers that had been set up since ancient times.

“Ahh! Would you stop speaking when you have no idea what you are talking about!?” Princess Feng pointed her finger right at Mei Ling’s nose. She was really getting sick of this girl sticking her face into something that it did not belong!

“You! How about we fight righ….” Mei Ling had already rolled up her sleeves when she felt something heavy yet warm land on her body. Princess Feng also had one land on her head as well.

“Look what I got you!” Neo stood between the two, smiling. She worked hard for these furs! It could be considered her first true find since waking up here.

Princess Feng felt the soft fur and pursed her lips. How could she continue being mad at Neo when she saw her smiling away and even gave her a present? “Thank you….”

“Yes, thank you, Neo. I will treasure it.” Mei Ling also nodded. She felt the fur was very warm.

“I am glad! Now, let’s go to the entrance. I already got a lot of shiny things.” Neo put her hand into her inventory and pulled out an arm full of demonic beast cores of all kinds. 

“This… How many are there!?” Princess Feng was shocked! She had seen a blood mess as she made her way here, but she did not know how many demonic beasts Neo had killed.

“Hmmm, I think one hundred!”  Neo nodded. She was unsure. Stinky breathed monsters kept appearing in front of her, trying to eat her, so she slapped them to death. Each one of them dropped a shiny ball thing.

“I am not sure if this will even be useful now, but I am sure it will at least be good money for you, Neo.” Princess Feng really had to hand it to Neo. There were even ranked six cores mixed into the bunch. 

“Yes… This is….” Mei Ling was shocked. She suddenly realized that Neo was much stronger than she had ever expected! She looked at Princess Feng, who had also become more docile and no longer yelling and sighed. She wondered if she had gotten everything wrong.

“We should head back.” Princess Feng felt a little relieved that this whole situation was going to be finally over with.

“Alright, then get up on Little Horsey, its slow, but it’s comfortable.” Neo smiled, and before both girls even had a chance to answer, they were flying through the air as Neo jumped up on top of the rank six demonic beasts. 

“Neo, we could just walk….” Princess Feng was nervous. She was worried the demonic beast under her would end up going into a rage and killing them.

“It’s fine. It’s fine. Right Little Horsey?” Neo asked as she slapped the shell of the turtle once more, causing it to cry out in pain. “See. It says it’s fine. Little Horsey, listen to the princess here. She will tell you which way to go.”

“Princess?” Mei Ling looked at Princess Feng in confusion.

“Neo! I told you to call me Zhao Jia!” Princess Feng yelled out. But when she thought about it, she wondered if this was the correct name she had said before.

“Ah, right! Haha!” Neo rubbed the top of her head. “I forgot.”

“Wait, you are a princess!?” Mei Ling was suddenly covered in sweat. Has she really been scolding a princess this entire time!?

“Mei Ling, just act like before. I actually would feel as if my skin was crawling if you started acting all respectful towards me all of a sudden.” Princess Feng really did not like all the etiquette rules. 

“Alright…” Mei Ling furrowed her brow. But she actually preferred it this way as well. “So, does that make Neo a prince…”

“No! No, No! Thank the heavens, no! If she was a princess, the city would disappear overnight. You have no idea what kind of calamity would happen if Neo was a princess. She, I am afraid the entire world would end up destroyed.” Princess Feng was quick to reject this idea.

“Princess, I have a feeling you are really being mean to me right now…..” Neo pursed her lips. She did not understand why her being a princess was rejected so quickly.

“Neo, I am just stating facts. If you have free reign, the whole city would end up in a mess.” Princess Feng replied.

“How could that be!? Is it because I punched that old lady in the face for stealing my chicken!?” Neo’s words made both Mei Ling and Princess Feng stare at her in shock!

“Why the hell are you hitting old ladies!?”

“She stole my chicken wing!”
