Chapter 39: Little Gorilla’s Changes
After embracing Little Gorilla, feeling him heavier and taller than before, Kaiju pushed him while holding his arm pits.
"T-This..." Kaiju was lost for words, almost believing it was not the Little Gorilla before him.
However, Little Gorilla communicated with him through telepathy - of course, Little Gorilla was uttering a gecker noise - excitedly telling him how he was also thrilled to meet Kaiju. Kaiju could not restrain himself anymore and asked, "H-How have you been, Little Gorilla? You have changed so much."
"Right?" Faith’s voice suddenly echoed behind him, startling him. Faith’s golden eyes sparkled while staring at Little Gorilla, "After I converted him, he received the blessings of the God, directly ascending him to the Corrupted Rank, obtaining the elemental affinity of light. Are you interested? You might become awakened after I convert you!"
"No, thanks." Kaiju shook his head frantically, distressing Faith.
Kaiju scrutinized Little Gorilla’s new appearance. If he remembered correctly, Little Gorilla has yellow protruding fangs, three bloodshot eyes, and his fur was raven-black with some markings of scarlet color. His claws were sharp. He behaved mischievously but always knew his limits, conveying his loyalty to Kaiju.
However, the Little Gorilla now has changed even his body framework. He grew taller, he became fatter. Furthermore, his protruding fangs turned white and his previously three bloodshot eyes... turned golden. His third eye was currently closed. His previous raven-black fur became all red scarlet color, with some markings of gold and white, creating a unique design. Furthermore, what was the biggest change was... his sharp, elongated claws disappeared.
Kaiju stared at the bulky, massive hands of Little Gorilla, as he was grasping a staff on his right hand. The staff appeared ordinary–Faith must have bought it from the store. Faith really went to spend money just to give Little Gorilla, causing him to be filled with gratitude. He turned to Faith, still seeing her downcast expression after he rejected her, and bowed.
"I thank you from the bottom of my heart."
