NOVEL WEB Chapter 6 - Level 1
Chapter 6 - Level 1
After Qin Hua tossed the peanut, the lazy fur ball immediately started fidgeting restlessly. It even sneezed a couple of times.
Qin Hua decisively used this distraction to nibble on Coco's plump body.
By now, the humans in the room had already noticed the crazy brawl between both the pets and jumped into action.
Su Yan immediately leaped near the pet battle stage, Little white's bedding, and grabbed the tiny puppy in his hand.
[Damn it, Su Yan!] Qin Hua roared in her mind.
But thankfully, the notification she needed successfully popped up in front of her.
[Congratulations. Player vs. Player quest is complete]
[100 Experience points have been rewarded]
Now that the deed was done, Qin Hua couldn't help but feel slightly guilty.
She sheepishly threw a sideways glance at the kitty, who was now resting peacefully in its owner's hands.
Once the cat was moved away from the leftover blob of half-cooked peanut, it felt much better and stopped acting weird.
"Ha Ha. What a naughty little puppy?!" Xu Meilin patted the cat in her hand and playfully glared at Qin Hua.
Su Yan awkwardly chuckled, while Qin Hua went back to her original smug look.
[Sorry bro. Have to crack some eggs to make an omelet.]
But she did silently swear to help the kitty out later when she became more capable.
After some more small talk, the two uninvited guests finally left the apartment, restoring the peace and quiet of the room.
Su Yan as well busied himself with the video game stream set up and let Little white play by herself for a bit.
Taking this chance, Little white rushed to the open patio and started working on the last obstacle between her and the much-awaited Level 1 upgrade.
[Daily quest: Stay in the moonlight for 1 hour]
[Reward: 5 experience points]
Since it was raining bat sh*t crazy on the outside, roaming around in the patio was her only method for finishing this quest.
She had been doing this for the past couple of days, so the boys were also used to her behavior.
And thus, a small cute white fur ball happily basked in the faint rays of moonlight that were magically slipping through the cloudy sky and the corrosive rain.
Su Yun chuckled at the sight of the loitering puppy, swaggering with its wobbly body and unsteady steps. She seemed to be so into it that he decided to not disturb her for the stream session.
Soon afterward, Qin Hua was tired from her unusually action-packed evening and ended up dozing off while still basking in the moonlight.
When she again woke up, it was already the middle of the night, and her dependable masters had stuffed her in the cozy cushy bedding.
The little white puppy lazily yawned and stretched out her white furry paws without a care in the world.
But then Qin Hua suddenly perked up. She could surprisingly feel a little bit stronger than her previous self.
She excitedly blinked like a maniac to get out of the sleepy haze and mentally willed her status screen.

Huzzah!! She had finally reached Level 1!
There was a small bump in her pathetic health and her other attributes seemed to have improved as well.
Even though the improvement was small, Qin Hua felt extremely satisfied. She happily lazed around for a while before eventually getting bored.
Both her playmates were sound asleep, and she had nothing worthwhile to do.
As her crystal blue and emerald green eyes darted here and there, a used towel lying haphazardly on the ground caught her eye.
[He He He… Time to test out my new strength]
With a mischievous look on its face, the small puppy dashed towards the purple towel lying on the carpeted floor.
[Perfect!] Her eyes gleamed with excitement as she nibbled the soft towel with all the strength she could muster.
Rip.
To her surprise, a small tear immediately appeared in the towel.
[This leveling up feature is awesome!]
Qin Hua grinned widely as she continued attacking the towel with a vengeance.
At Level 0, she was barely even able to make a bite mark or teeth impression in cloth materials… cough… cough… Su Yan's shirt.
But now, she was actually able to do some decent damage.
Soon enough, the towel looked like a mangled mess and the loose fibers started irritating her eyes. So she tossed it aside and looked for something else to attack.
[Damn it. Neat freaks are the worst!]
Everything else was arranged perfectly and there were no other clothes sprawled about here and there.
So she couldn't find any other target to practice her skills.
And with her current small figure, Qin Hua was still not able to climb anything. So she could only dejectedly look at her bedding.
Her bed was too comfortable though! She really didn't want to ruin it.
After a lot of thought and deep consideration, the small puppy's eyes reluctantly fell on the slightly open bedroom doors.
Until now, she had been carefully avoiding walking into the guys' rooms at arbitrary times, lest she might see something that couldn't be unseen.
But it looked like tonight she had to brave her heart and be adventurous.
[This should be Su Yan's room.] Qin Hua daringly wobbled towards the bedroom on the right.
This was the first time she was coming in here. The room itself looked extremely neat and tidy.
There were not many things in the room, just a single bed and a wooden table and chair set.
This uncluttered minimalistic and efficient style was definitely Su Yan's.
His handsome face seemed very calm and tranquil as the teenager softly breathed in and out in his deep sleep.
And just as she had expected, a small portion of his blanket was dipping on the ground.
[Bingo! Which human didn't pull their blanket in the night all the way to one side?? Aha!]
Qin Hua had found her next practice target.
[Tonight I am going to level my Nibble skill to 3!]
The puppy did a small fist pump in the air, making it immediately wobble and flop down on the floor.
