Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: Claiming the Reward

The content of the personal information panel in front of Yu Zhizhi had changed as well.

[Name: Yu Zhizhi]

[Race: Rabbit (Adult)]

[Spiritual Power: Unawakened]

[Superpower: Unawakened]

[Fertility: Top-tier]

[Count: 1]

[Comprehensive Rating: S]

Compared to when she first arrived in the Beast World Empire, her Constitution had gone from weak to strong, her birth count from zero to one, and her Comprehensive Rating had leaped seven levels from D+ straight to S!

Yu Zhizhi's spiritual power and Superpower had yet to awaken.

With her "Top-tier" Fertility alone, she had become an S-Class female on the Beast World Planet in a single leap!

In the Valoran Empire, female ranks were graded from the highest, SSS+, all the way down to E.

An E-rank signified a triple deficiency in Fertility, physique, and intelligence.

Starting from D-rank were females with good physiques and intelligence, but with Fertility that was practically zero.

Yu Zhizhi's initial Comprehensive Rating had been D+.

To the Empire, she was a female of little to no value.

System: "Congratulations, Host, on completing the first mission from the Childbirth System. Click the [Claim] button to receive your Postpartum Care Gift Bag."

System: "As your total points now exceed 200, the daily check-in feature will be unlocked."

System: "Host, you can now check in daily to receive crystals."

System: "Crystals can be exchanged for pet supplies in the Pet Mall."

The floating, light-blue panel glittered as if celebrating her level-up.

Overjoyed, Yu Zhizhi tapped [Claim].

A red Luck Bag opened before her—

[Congratulations, Host, on receiving your postpartum reward!]

Transparent bubbles scrolled into view.

[Eat-Anything-Without-Gaining-Weight Nutrient Liquid (30-day duration) x2]

[Random Nutritious & Super-Delicious Meal Package x30]

[Silky Smooth & Snow-White Skin Nutrient Liquid x10]

[Perfect Concealing Breath Pill (76-hour duration) x10]

[One Plot of Land (Locked)]

[Storage Shelf +10 Slots Card x1]

[Mysterious Pet Egg x1]

Yu Zhizhi asked curiously, "What's a 'plot of land'?"

System: "It's your exclusive territory. It unlocks when your personal Level reaches 5, and you can choose a location anywhere on the Beast World Planet."

Yu Zhizhi asked, "What about the Mysterious Pet Egg?"

System: "You can use crystals to get an incubator and hatch it. There are two possibilities for its type: Elf System or Ghost Type."

The Pet Egg, slowly rotating on the floating blue screen, looked like an oversized white duck egg covered in vibrant, colorful graffiti.

'A Pet Egg is still an egg.'

'And what I gave birth to were also eggs...'

"Then..." Yu Zhizhi looked at the four gently swaying wolf eggs on the bed. "Can the incubator be used to hatch the Beast cub eggs?"

System: "It can, but it isn't necessary. Beasts hatch on their own."

A commotion sounded from outside the door.

The sound of a group's orderly, overlapping footsteps grew closer, and within ten seconds, they had arrived outside her dorm room.

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK—

The knock was both restrained and rhythmic.

"Excuse me, which esteemed female is in this room?" The male Beastman's voice was gentle, with a hint of a smile.

He clutched the white gloves in his hands.

About five minutes ago, the Blue Crystal had detected the aura of a new K family bloodline beneath the castle...

One must understand that as one of the five great families of the Valoran Empire, the K family hadn't had a newborn Beast cub in twenty long years!

And Lord Locke, suffering from a spiritual collapse, forbade any female from approaching him.

Although the K family had other males to carry on the bloodline...

...their bloodlines were nowhere near as pure or powerful as Lord Locke's!

They were completely unqualified to become the next successor!

But unexpectedly, on this most ordinary of days, the Blue Crystal had begun to glow intensely!

This was a monumental event!

Following the guidance of the sacred light, they quickly found the source of the aura—

The maids' dormitory on the first basement floor of the K Family Castle.

The male Beastman's voice trembled with excitement. "We are the K family's Guard Team. Please, miss, do not be afraid. Open the door and allow us to welcome the Young Masters."

"Housekeeper Qiao is on his way," he added.

'The cubs' family really found me...'

'Just like the System said.'

Yu Zhizhi took a deep breath, got out of bed, and opened the door.

The captain of the guards at the door froze for a moment when he saw the female who opened it.

She was wearing a simple black-and-white maid's uniform and a black lace headband. One of her white rabbit ears stood straight up, while the other flopped down slightly.

She had a somewhat timid expression.

"Please, come in."

'S-So cute!'

All the male guards at the door were dumbstruck.

The sound of leather shoes echoed from down the hall.

The guards quickly made way. "Housekeeper Qiao."

The highest-ranking housekeeper of the K family had arrived. He intended to personally welcome the female who had borne Lord Locke's cubs.

When he saw Yu Zhizhi, he froze. "It's you?"

Housekeeper Qiao had a vivid memory of this female rabbit.

He had personally selected her and sent her to the B13 Floor.

He never expected that she would still be alive.

A "prey" from the Cat Clan had been sent in after her, and her corpse was long cold.

This female rabbit, who looked so incredibly weak, had not only survived but had even carried Lord Locke's cubs.

'What does this mean?'

'Lord Locke didn't reject her!'

In the past, any female who dared to approach Lord Locke had died a miserable death.

Housekeeper Qiao's heart pounded with excitement.

Yu Zhizhi, however, felt a chill of fear upon seeing him.

Her impression of this housekeeper was that he was stern, humorless, and exceptionally strict.

Housekeeper Qiao cleared his throat.

"Ms. Zhi Zhi, my sincerest apologies. Our last meeting was rather rushed, and I didn't have the chance to introduce myself properly—"

"I am George, the head housekeeper of the K family."

"Lord Nade is still in a meeting at the Political Hall and will not be back until tomorrow."

"Therefore, I will be the one to arrange your accommodations for now."

A standard smile spread across Housekeeper Qiao's face. "Now, let's have a look at the Beast cubs with the purest K family bloodline—"

He suddenly fell silent.

Yu Zhizhi asked nervously, "W-What's wrong?"

"Four of them?!" Housekeeper Qiao's pupils contracted when he saw the Beast Eggs lying side-by-side on the bed.

Hearing that number, the guards at the door all froze as well.

Yu Zhizhi's face flushed. "...Yes."

The K family was one of the Empire's most ancient families. Continuing their bloodline was exceptionally difficult, and they had always only had single births.

He never imagined that this female from the Rabbit Clan would give birth to four at once!

Housekeeper Qiao glanced again at the Rabbit Clan female by the door. She was exceptionally beautiful—the kind of beauty that would make any male in the Empire stop dead in his tracks.

If marriage partners were chosen based on a male's personal preference rather than Fertility—

...the line of suitors wanting to marry her would probably stretch from the scorching Southern Continent all the way to the frigid Northern Continent!

"I recall your file last showed your rating as... D?"

Housekeeper Qiao's voice was faint; he felt a little uncertain.

'Could I have been mistaken?'

"Yes," Yu Zhizhi nodded.

Housekeeper Qiao said, "It seems there was a problem with the testing equipment..."

'We can't afford to overlook a single High-level female!'

Housekeeper Qiao made an immediate decision.

"Ms. Zhi Zhi, please don't worry about this. First, let's get you to your room."

"Tomorrow is the Empire's public testing day!"

"At that time—"

"Ms. Zhi Zhi, you can be officially re-ranked!"
