Zoo All-Stars 3/3

"Hehe, performer, were you moved by my beautiful singing voice and came to watch the performance? I am very satisfied!"

Come, appreciate Yu's talent, give him thunderous applause, and praise his voice, which rivals that of Venus!

Upon seeing the newcomer, Nero proudly puffed out his little chest and made a self-satisfied declaration.

"Hey, hey, hey, all the snacks are for you, so be more professional and keep the flowers flowing!"

Attila, who had just put down the flower basket and was reaching for another plate of pastries, reluctantly withdrew her hand upon hearing her employer's request, continuing to act as a merciless flower-scattering tool.

Facing Samael's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot, the self-satisfied Tyrant unconsciously placed his left hand on his chest, elegantly raised his hand, closed his eyes, and uttered a sigh as poetic as a poem.

"Player, I have only now realized how dazzling my own brilliance is in the realm of art!"

Hmm, it's decided! From now on, singing and dancing will all be my job! Even if I end up in Rome, I'll make it my profession! This is much more interesting than being an emperor!

Hey you, mind your manners, give us a round of applause!

"Slap slap slap..."

The Xiongnu King, already tamed by pastries, decisively picked up a grape pie, clapped his hands expressionlessly, and acted as the mood-maker.

So your hobby has awakened, huh? You want to take Rome with you? You're even planning to close the venue doors and force the citizens to listen to the entire performance?!

Samael's forehead veins throbbed, and his smile was so wide it was almost distorted.

Bang! Bang!

The dull thuds of impact echoed through the room as the Fist of Justice slammed into the heads of the two scourges.

"The performer is so tactless! It hurts so much! Treating an artist like this is nothing short of blatant offense and blasphemy!"

Nero held his head in one hand, waving his fist, his small face tense with complaint.

"Offensive, huh? Blasphemy, huh? That didn't count, this is!"

Samael's expression turned ferocious. He immediately grabbed the unlucky, unruly child, tucked her under his armpits, and began to beat her bottom mercilessly.

"Ouch! It hurts! It hurts!"

"Are you still going to sing? All you do is wail and howl! Doesn't everyone else want to sleep?! Doesn't everyone want to work?!"

"This is a sacrifice for art. The Empire will remember your small sacrifice. Don't be so petty. Besides, violence cannot subdue people, and authority cannot gain genuine respect. Art is immortal! Idols are immortal!"

"..."

Pa pa pa pa!

Faced with the unruly child who had been relentlessly punched on the knees by Samael, who still refused to change his ways, Samael immediately unleashed his "education of love," cruelly suppressing this murderous source of sound.

Finally, after Nero's buttocks grew a bit bigger, the once unruly child, who had gradually become somewhat lawless, finally remembered the fear of being dominated by a teacher. Adhering to His Majesty the Emperor's principle of being flexible and adaptable, he obediently shut his mouth and tearfully confessed his mistakes.

That being said, the ancient snake, having already figured out the kid's ways, naturally wouldn't believe it entirely.

Since Nero is such a troublemaker and has accidentally awakened a peculiar hobby, for the sake of my peace and quiet, this brat can't stay on Mount of Ares.

Since the mission was temporarily completed, Samael decided to take the mobile sonic weapon and find a new place to contain it.

After a series of twists and turns, Samael knocked on the door of the house where Scathach and the Valkyrie were staying.

However, before they even entered the gate, a fierce argument broke out in the courtyard.

"Hey, you silly dog, can you please stop grooming your fur in the bedroom? Don't you know it gets stuck on the carpet and is a huge hassle to clean up!"

"We're not dogs, we're wolves! Wise wolf Horo, you stinky rabbit, if you piss us off, we'll bite you to death! And this is my house, nobody invited you in, so stop pretending to be so attentive and acting like this is your own den!"

"What rabbit? Are you blind? I'm a fox! A fox! Besides, I'm your husband's best friend. This place might become our cozy little home in the future, so of course I have to take on the responsibilities of a good wife in advance. On the other hand, you're always holed up at home eating apples and taking care of that tail like a precious treasure. It's really too much of an eyesore!"

"What do you mean 'our elder sister'? I'm the older sister! Samael is the younger brother, he should listen to me!"

"He's already grown up, yet no one loves him. His younger brother has to take care of him, and he stubbornly refuses to move from his brother's house. Tsk tsk, what a failure. But give up, only a lover can be his eternal companion. Be careful, or you'll be kicked out sooner or later!"

"Trying to kick us out? How vicious! Humph, Samael already has a wife, you stinking rabbit, don't even think about taking her place!"

"That's not necessarily true. Maybe men prefer to have affairs. No one in this world can resist a beautiful fox spirit who is willing to repay a debt of gratitude by throwing herself into their arms."

"Trying to seduce me? That's too low-level! Samael won't fall for it. I curse you to never get married!"

"How dare you so corrupt my dream of pursuing happiness! You're so wicked! I curse you to be covered in fleas!"

"Damn it, you want to fight?!"

"Come on, come on, you think you can get away with this!"

"My blood! My runes!"

"Yin Qi Condensation! Tamamo Hatred Bullet!"

Bang! Bang!

Just as Horo and Tamamo no Mae were staring at each other, rolling up their sleeves, their hands forming hand seals, and magic power surging around them, about to clash, the rune-sealed door was suddenly blasted open, and then Fist of Justice smashed into their heads.

"What's all the noise about! What's all the fighting about! We're both canines, can't we at least get along peacefully?!"

Samael glared at the two of them and pulled them apart, unable to resist berating the two ill-fated lovers.

"What canine? I'm a wolf! A great and wise wolf! Who wants to associate with this stinking fox!"

"That's right, that's right! I'm a fox, a clever and beautiful natural spirit of this world. How could I possibly be like this kind of stupid dog!"

"Snort!"

"Snort!"

Horo and Tamamo no Mae protested in their own way, then exchanged a glance and, in perfect unison, snorted and turned their heads away with their arms crossed.

Sure enough, foxes and wolves are simply incompatible!

Samael rubbed his forehead in anguish. He had certainly amassed enough lives for the Iliad War, but this uncoordinated team had brought him endless trouble, leaving him utterly exhausted, both physically and mentally.

In addition, there's a wolf, a fox, a leopard, and three snakes: him, Anna, and Quetzalcoatl. The abundance of species is almost like a circus or a zoo.

If only we could summon Tiamat, her expertise in animal taming would be perfect for her.

Seeing Tamamo no Mae- Mae and Horo staring at each other like fighting cocks, close to each other, seemingly about to start a fight, Samael immediately Divine General the two natural enemies and asked them in an annoyed tone.

"Where's Scathach? Tell her to come out and meet them."

"It seems she ran into some trouble and has already gone out. She hasn't said when she'll be back."

Horo blinked and gave a casual reply.

"I see. Then I can go and continue... cough cough... continue to study hard."

Upon being released, Nero, seeing the discipline personnel nominated by his teacher not at the scene, immediately beamed with joy, almost revealing his evil intention to restart the concert.

"Here, take care of her."

Samael glanced at the mischievous child trying to slip away, grabbed her by the collar, and shoved her into Tamamo no Mae.

"Let me watch the child? That's not a good idea..."

Upon seeing this, the Fox Spirit immediately drooped her ears, looking disgusted.

"Refusal is invalid! Keep an eye on things, don't let her cause trouble before Scathach takes over! By the way, Horo, you're coming to live with me on Mount of Ares."

"Why should we! We're not moving! If anyone should leave, it should be her!"

Upon hearing Horo, Holo's teeth chattered, her anger flaring up as she raised her fist in protest.

"Okay, let's go!"

Tamamo no Mae her eyes, glared at Horo with hatred, then grabbed Samael and walked out the door with a bitter expression.

Hehe, you silly dog, now I have a legitimate place to seduce people! Xiao Yu has won a great victory!

Meanwhile, having driven away the Fox Spirit had trespassed on her territory and defended her domain, Horo looked around at the quiet courtyard and nodded in satisfaction.

Without that Trash Fox causing trouble, the house is so comfortable to live in.

However, when her gaze fell upon Nero, who was lying beside her with her watery eyes, her slightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed.

Taking care of children is something Samael can do, and we're just as good at it.

So, after this exchange, it's probably not a bad deal, right?
