Chapter 38
As the bird in the cage fell asleep, Michelle's eyes flashed with a hint of red, but she quickly calmed down to retract it. She didn't want anyone to see it. "Can I buy the bird?" she asked, staring at the bird. She was certain that she had seen it somewhere, but she couldn't remember where.
The young boy was clearly surprised. "This one...?" he raised a brow with clear disdain in his gaze as he glanced at the bird.
"What? I can't?" Michelle asked coldly when she saw the disdain. The more she looked at the boy and the state the shop was in, the more she didn't like Beast Tamers.
Hearing the coldness in Michelle's voice, the young boy got instantly scared. Michelle, dressed as Michael Grayson, might have looked like a handsome and harmless young lad, but the coldness in her voice was so chilly and terrifying, it would make anyone want to obey her so as not to anger her. "Of course you can buy it, but this one is quite untamable. It was tamed a few times already, but it would always somehow get back its aggressiveness. No one was able to tame it in a way that it would remain meek."
Hearing that, Michelle raised a brow and reached into her sleeve, taking out a pouch of money. "How much for the bird?" she asked impatiently.
The young boy saw that Michelle clearly didn't want to talk to him, so he just stated the price. "Three golden ingots..." he said, afraid that the price would anger her.
"Here!" Michelle handed him three golden ingots and looked at the cage with the bird. "Open the cage!" she ordered coldly.
"Ah- But that's danger..." the boy wanted to say "That's dangerous," but Michelle's cold gaze silenced him, and he quickly took out his keys and unlocked the cage.
Michelle reached into the cage and took the bird into her arms, gently petting its head. The bird slowly opened its eyes, but didn't even move, so the young boy didn't even notice that it was awake as Michelle walked out of the Beast Tamer Shop.
