Chapter 4140 Organic Basketball
Aurelia Wodin-Larkinson was the happiest and luckiest little girl on Davute.
It wasn't only her that felt this way. Her parents regularly reinforced this picture to her as they hugged her and kissed her every day.
Her other playmates conveyed this thought as well. When they saw how well Ves and Gloriana treated their little daughter, they grew jealous and wondered why they didn't have the fortune of being born into the 'royal family' of the Larkinson Clan!
There was not much Aurelia could do about that. She even had to push a few little boys and girls away from her because they grew too jealous of her fortune.
How was it her fault that she had such a fantastic mom and dad?!
Fortunately for Aurelia, Gloriana paid great care in choosing her friends and playmates. Many of them were children of high-status people who had little reason to grow jealous at the unofficial 'princess' of the Larkinson Clan.
Among the many little friends she made, she only considered one of them to be her closest life-and-death companion.
"Clixie!"
"Miaow~"
The little girl giggled as the calico cat padded up to her and pressed her furry head forward.
A strong bond of love and warmth had already formed between them a long time ago. Aurelia never questioned how this could come into being. To her, developing such a strong bond was as natural as breathing.
The spiritual bond not only allowed Aurelia to share a portion of her thoughts and emotions to her cat friend, but also enabled her to be aware of Clixie's location at all times.
The Rubarthan Sentinel Cat was never too far away from her, though. Clixie took on her protective duties seriously and rarely wandered off, unlike Lucky.
"Hihihihi!"
Aurelia giggled as she became drowned by fur. Now that Gloriana had essentially discarded Clixie, the cat became determined to never encourage the daughter to do the same!
Fortunately, the strong bond between them gave Clixie a lot of assurances that Aurelia would not follow in her mother's footsteps. Their mutual love and trust was both genuine and strong.
"Chase, Clixie, Chase!"
One of their favorite games was letting Clixie chase after stuff. Instead of throwing out a toy ball or other convenient object, Aurelia ejected an even better target.
Mana!
As soon as the small but fluffy white translucent kitten emerged from Aurelia's head, the companion spirit immediately flew away!
After experiencing a substantial amount of growth, Mana was no longer as small and weak as before. She no longer needed to sleep most of the time and possessed more than enough energy to manifest outside for longer periods of time.
Mew mew mew!
"Miaow miaow!"
Mana's flight speed wasn't all that impressive compared to the older and more mature spiritual cats, but she was still fast enough to give Clixie a substantial workout.
Aurelia giggled and clapped as her other self led Clixie on an exciting chase!
Since they were sitting in the expansive backyard of the Royal Mansion, there were plenty of benches, bushes, trees and other interesting obstacles to give the Rubarthan Sentinel Cat a substantial workout.
Clixie displayed a remarkable degree of agility and reaction speed as she skillfully navigated the familiar terrain.
However, she couldn't quite catch up to the vigorous spiritual kitten who was able to use her intangible nature to her advantage by phasing right through anything in her way.
Mew mew mew~!
Mana even had time to look back and tease her pursuer!
"MIAOW!"
Clixie's patience only extended up to a point. Now that Mana had the temerity to mock her, the older cat began to take out the big guns!
Clixie's body abruptly shone in gold before she made a powerful leap that rapidly closed the distance between the two. Mana became so shocked that she attempted to juke to the side.
It was a pity that it was too late!
MEW!
Clixie finally managed to trap Mana in her paws!
As the Rubarthan Sentinel Cat landed back on the ground, she lowered her body and began to give Mana a completely unnecessary bath.
Mew! Mew! Mew!
"Clixie, stop it! Your tongue feels so funny!"
"Miaow miaow~"
The relationship between Aurelia and her cat was quite odd. Though Clixie saw Aurelia as a friend as well as a protection target, the furry animal completely treated Mana as her own kitten!
It didn't matter that they were two substantially different life forms. To Clixie, a cat was a cat. Her developing spiritual power easily enabled her to touch and interact with spiritual entities.
As Aurelia continued to play and cuddle with Clixie, she suddenly stopped and turned her head.
She could already sense the approach of her parents from afar!
Just as with Clixie, Aurelia had already formed spiritual bonds with her mom and dad as well.
"Mama! Papa!"
Lucky floated in first. The gem cat flew to Aurelia's side and gently brushed his side against her leg before closing in on Clixie and Mana.
"Meow meow."
"Miaow."
Mew! Mew!
As the cats all kept each other company, Ves and Gloriana strode into the idyllic yard with an extra passenger in their midst.
Gloriana held a baby in her arms. Her second daughter was already a few months old at this time and already bore a small tuft of red hair on her delicate head.
