With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

After settling the matter with Hayase, Lin Fan just left it alone to do what it was wanted since he had other things to take care of.

As soon as Hayase was free to do what he wanted, he immediately started bugging Shiro.

However, Shiro wasn't interested in Hayase at all as she jumped onto Hi's head and had Hi run away from Hayase.

If Hayase wasn't injured, then perhaps he would have been able to catch up to Hi, but his injuries made him slower than Hi. So it went like this, Shiro riding on Hi running away from Hayase who was never able to catch them.

Lin Fan turned his attention to the spirit beasts that he had hunted.

He didn't care about the Burst Bear since that was being turned in to the Mercenary Guild. There really wasn't anything that he needed to do with that since the request was for a Burst Bear corpse, he didn't need to dismantle it or anything.

But it was different for the crabs.

Before he would have turned them into the Mercenary Guild as well since it was better to get them professionally dismantled compared to the poor job he had done the first time. After all, the amount of gold coins that he had lost by personally dismantling the Inferno Swans last time was more than enough to cover the dismantling fee.

But this time, he wasn't selling these crabs to the Mercenary Guild.

Instead, the crabs were going to Yue Lan's store.

If he were to get them dismantled at the Mercenary Guild, it was certain that they would try to buy it from him. Lin Fan wasn't good at saying no to the Mercenary Guild since they've been quite good to him, so he didn't want to bring the crabs there in the first place to avoid that mess.

Since he had no other choice, Lin Fan decided to dismantle the crabs himself.

Though if he could, he really would have wanted to cook them himself. After all, these crabs did look quite delicious.

But that wasn't an option since Yue Lan's store was just lacking too many products.

It was a newly opened store and before Yue Lan could link up with her old connections, the only products that came to the store came from Lin Fan and local markets.

The local markets wouldn't have much and the profit would be low, so the only real supplier that she could count on was Lin Fan.

Even if he wanted a nice crab dinner, he had to hold back and bring these crabs to Yue Lan.

However, this was something that Lin Fan wasn't familiar with since these were crabs. He had no problem dismantling four legged animals since they followed the same body structure, but something like these crabs was new territory for him.

His only solace was the fact that he had bought a book about dismantling before this. There was a chapter in that book on how to dismantle things like crabs, which could give him instructions.

Still, even with instructions, this was his first time, so he went quite slowly and made quite a few mistakes.

It was just a good thing that Xiao Yue was there.

She had much more experience with dismantling compared to Lin Fan since she used to work on a farm. While she never dismantled a crab either, her techniques were still better and she learned much faster than Lin Fan.

By the end, Lin Fan only got to do one while Xiao Yue finished off the rest by herself.

This still took over an hour since neither of them were really familiar with this at first.

During this time, Hayase had been following Shiro around the entire time.

Shiro had been perched atop Hi's head, but after healing up a bit, Hayase regained his ability to fly. Even if Hi was much taller than him, he was able to easily cross that gap by flying up beside Hi's head.

Lin Fan had watched them from time to time and he had to admit, Hayase really was bad at flirting.

But that wasn't surprising considering his age.

Even if he was over a hundred years old, that was only when it came to human years. For a species with a long life span like the dragon, a hundred human years was nothing.

When this was converted into dragon years, Hayase was still considered a kid.

Hayase's attempts at flirting were mainly showing off to Shiro or teasing her about something, trying to get a reaction out of her.

When kids flirted, they would always do stuff like this.

It was only when they grew older that they would learn that girls liked guys who treated them nicely. Though, being too nice also wasn't a good thing either.

Lin Fan just left them to their own devices since in his eyes, it was just two kids playing with each other.

The only funny thing was that no matter how coldly Shiro treated Hayase, he never gave up.

His determined spirit even made Lin Fan want to wish him luck.

After they had finished dismantling the crabs, Lin Fan looked at the crab parts on the ground with a bitter smile on his face.

When comparing the crab he had done to the ones that Xiao Yue had done, there was only one thing he could say. He had completely butchered his.

All the parts were damaged to some degree…

He just hoped that Yue Lan would still be able to use it.

Since they were done with dismantling the crab, there was no reason for them to stay here any longer.

Lin Fan went over to Hi who still had Shiro on his head.

When Shiro saw Lin Fan coming over, she knew exactly what he wanted to do. She looked at him with a look that was asking for help, but there wasn't anything Lin Fan could do.

After all, if he brought her out, it was very likely that she would fall from Hi while he was running.

Lin Fan just put her on the ground as she looked at him with a betrayed look. Hayase on the other hand had a look of joy when he saw this.

He didn't show it, but it was tiring just floating there in place.

The only other beast that was left in the Pet Storage Space was Fuyuki who was napping in a corner.

Seeing that there was nothing else left, Shiro jumped over to Fuyuki and used him as a human shield against Hayase.

Lin Fan shook his head with a bitter smile, but he didn't interfere in this situation. He just rode out of the Pet Storage Space on Hi with Xiao Yue.

As he came out, he also called out the Gale Sparrow which he sent out alone.

As a result they stopped several times as the Gale Sparrow found some spirit beasts and some herbs for them to collect.

Since these spirit beasts weren't that strong, Lin Fan left them to Xiao Yue who strangely was quite adamant about fighting them. He never knew that she was such a battle junkie.

Of course he had no reason to say no since these spirit beasts were all in the First Qi Gathering Level. They were spirit beasts that Xiao Yue could easily handle by herself.

During this time, Lin Fan collected the herbs that these spirit beasts guarded.

When Xiao Yue was done, she came back to Lin Fan with a refreshed look on her face.

She hadn't been able to do anything earlier against the Burst Bear or the Water Dragon, so now that she was able to vent out some of the frustration from earlier, she felt much better now.

Lin Fan didn't bother dismantling these beasts because he didn't have time.

If they wasted any more time, the gates of the city would be closed before they arrived.

So after several delays, they wasted no more time and rushed Hi back to the city.

Making it just before the gates closed, Lin Fan let out a sigh of relief after they were able to get in.

He saw that it was getting late, so he chose not to head to the Mercenary Guild today. Instead he headed to the inn to find Yue Lan, but he didn't find her there.

After thinking about it, he immediately headed to the store and as he had expected, she was there. She was sitting in the back, taking care of some paperwork by candlelight.

It was clear by how focused she was that she should have been working all day.

Lin Fan could even hear some gurgling from her stomach which showed that she had been so focused that she even forgot to eat.

Lin Fan shook his head with a bitter smile on his face before coming over to take her hand.

Yue Lan was surprised to suddenly feel someone grabbing her hand, but then she looked up to see Lin Fan.

She was even more surprised to see that Lin Fan was already back, but then she noticed that it was already dark outside. She couldn't help saying in a surprised voice, "Eh, how did it get so late already?"

Then she looked at the table and saw the candle before saying in a surprised voice, "Did you bring this candle over?"

Lin Fan was surprised to hear this as he asked, "You didn't light this candle? It was already here when I came in."

Both of them were confused when they heard each other's words, that is until they heard Fubuki barking from the corner.

They both turned in her direction and saw that she had a look on her face that said that she was the one who had done it.

Lin Fan couldn't help being surprised by how dextrous she was to be able to light a candle and bring it over.
