Reborn To Tiger Demon
Shanni the Demon Protective Goddess

“You?” anming said half in shock. He sat on his bed staring at the five of them.

5 The cat demon that had chased him this morning and was almost wretched by it, looked at Anming doubtfully. One of those carrying a woven bamboo basket put it on the floor and said.

“We are not a cat demon that does not know itself.” His word.

“The basket contains – fruits, just think of it as a thank you.” Follow his other sister.

Anming stunned ‘Ku think they always say compactly, it could also be a piece of – a piece so.’ He murmured in his heart.

Anming accepted it. “Thanks.” Her speech.

“Shouldn't you run.” Said one of the 5 demons. Anming looked at him and he was the child standing in the middle. “Nona Li is not an evil goddess, she just wants to protect us demons.”

Anming was confused. “Nona Li? You mean Shanni? She's a Goddess?” The five cat demons nodded their heads. ‘That's something I didn't expect, I thought he was some kind of stealth because of his strange eyes.’ Anming said in his heart. ‘Goddess huh? is that why I was scared this morning?’

“Then what do you mean by protecting the demons?” ask Anming again.

“You humans don't know?” said one of the demons kucin g.

“From antiquity, humans and demons never get along. We demons are always considered destroyers, murderers, bearers of disaster, calamities, and that's why we are hunted down and killed. Not all of us are like that.” Said the leftmost cat demon.

“Yes, but then we prayed to God Mofan and he told us to go to the snowy mountains that exist between 2 countries that are hostile to each other and meet the Goddess named Li Shanni.” Said the cat demon next to him.

“Nona protects us from the humans who want to kill us. He also always reminded us not to come out of the temple so that the demon hunters and other humans do not harm us.” Continue the cat demon on the far right.

Anming was stunned ‘Actually not once did I hear about the Demon Hunters. Honestly, I have always been apathetic with them because I see them as religious Fanatics.’ Anming murmured in his heart. ‘But looking at the present me and them, as well as some people in this temple who have strange shapes and looks, I felt all this time I was so stupid.’

“Please rethink Mr. Zhou, it is not bad to stay in this temple because all your needs can be fulfilled. Here you will also not be alone because almost all of us are stealth.” The cat in the middle.

“True, here also there are festivals, schools, restaurants, and other – others such as cities and villages in the world of Man.” Add cat stealth on the far right.

Anming smiled slightly. Seeing the five of them looking at him expectantly made him remembered by the younger sister – whom he loved so much. But Anming also had family in his home and he had to go home to protect them and Zhou's country.

“I can't.” said Anming weakly, “I have a family waiting for me at home, and I'm sure they must feel very sad thinking I'm dead.”

The five cat demons looked disappointed by Anming's reply. But then he stroked the heads of the five of them and snorted.

“I'll still be home. I have to make sure my family is good – fine and defend my country's fortress from Meng.” country Anming.

\~\~**\~\~

“Nona Li will not be destroyed even if you say so loh.” Taoshu said the old man who had bark like a tree.

Anming gasped in shock and reflexively shouted. “GRANDFATHER,” “POLE!”

The 5 stealth cats looked at Taoshu and greeted. “God Taoshu.” (Taoshu means Peach Tree, so if it is indicated it means Peach Tree God)

Anming looked quickly. “God?!” yells.

“Low if you don't know, I'm just an old peach tree living in the middle of the stealth city.” Taoshu tapped the chest of Anming field with a sly smile “Heh, I am your fan, I saw you make a landslide at the crossing location and made Miss Li angry big time.”

Anming's face turned pale and he was reminded by Shanni's sinister face when angry. ‘Ohya, I forgot that I damaged the temple.’ Anming murmured in his heart. ‘D-he must be so angry with me.’

“Miss Li is a learned person and thinks logically more often. A mushy person like you would be hard-pressed to conquer.” Taoshu said with his sly smile. “If you want to get out of this temple, I advise you to make an agreement with Ms. Li.” Taoshu.

“Agreement?” anming repeated in confusion.

“Iya agreement.” Taoshu replied while growing a chair from a tree trunk for him to sit on. “For example, if Miss Li lets you out of the temple in a certain time you promise to stay forever in this temple and will never deal with human life again.”

Anming quietly thought ‘Such a deal why don't I think about it from the beginning?’

Lord Taoshu propped his chin on his wooden stick. “But I can't guarantee he will agree yes, because anyway letting stealth be in the human world can harm both sides.” “Moreover you are a newborn tiger demon.”

Anming reeled confused “Indeed what would happen if I was just born into a demon?” tanyakanya.

“Usually a savage demon like the newborn Tiger has a high appetite for human flesh especially when hungry.” Answer the cat demon in the middle.

“They also have Aura, Energy, and also a very big Power.” Add the cat demon that is on his left.

“And they also have a hard time controlling their emotions and power!” Add the cat demon that is on the right from the middle.

The words of the three cat demons made Anming remembered by some events that he had experienced the last 2 days. Like a jug of honey and Shanni's remark about him not wanting Anming to eat – people who live in the temple, – items that Anming holds that are broken or damaged, or broken, another demon who seemed to be afraid of him, he who accidentally created a landslide on a cliff, and also he became easily emotional.

‘Now, all of it makes sense.’ Thought Anming.

“But before making an agreement, it's good that you apologize first with Miss Li. Anyway you damaged the only – access to the City and Village of Demon to the temple and prevented the demons to follow the worship tonight.” Taoshu said without guilt.

Anming bowed regretfully and his entire mind was overwhelmed with guilt. “B-Good.” The answer. Since it was already too late, Anming felt uneasy bothering Shanni. So he decided to go find Shanni in his room tomorrow morning.

*********

The next morning, the sky looked cloudy and thin snow fell from the sky. As the weather grew colder, Anming was forced to wear a white fur coat in his room. She looks perfectly suited to her current clothes and the hair on the one pigtail.

‘Duh, I'm so nervous right.’ Anming said in his heart.

He walked down the side courtyard hallway with a fountain and reached the library. He then knocks on the library door and a rabbit demon named Wanwan opens it. He was shocked to see Anming.

“WAAA!!!” Pekik Wanwan's.

Anming was also shocked by his voice.

“What are you doing here?” sniff the rabbit demon girl. Both of his ears were scared.

“I'm looking for Shanni, is she inside?” ask Anming.

Wanwan furrowed his brows, but he could not hide the fear in his eyes. “Nona Li is in City, what are you looking for miss?” the answer.

Anming smiled weakly “There's something I want to talk about with him.” The reply.

Wanwan looked at the adult man from head to toe. “He wasn't in the library, he had gone to the Demon City to chat with the mayor.” Wanwan closed the door and walked away.

‘He looks hate me.’ Anming murmured in his heart. He then looked at the cliff that he made a landslide yesterday. ‘I have to go to town.’

 **************

After tens of minutes of walking, Anming finally reached the cliff side which is the location of the crossing between the temple and the city. There were still many demons dredging in the snow, but the streets were already open and could already be passed.

‘They work like humans in general.’ Thought Anming. ‘But why are they called disaster-carrying creatures?’

A dozen minutes past the crossroads, Anming arrived at the vast wet and grassy ground. It made Anming amazed.

‘Graze! I guess I won't find any grassy ground on this iceberg.’ exclaimed Anming inwardly. He must admit, he misses grassy ground.

Not long after, Anming finally reached the entrance of Demon City. The city is walled by a large wall with signboard ‘Siluman’ City at its entrance. Above the city walls were many soldiers wearing armor and at the entrance were many demons that passed by.

“This stealth city?” Anming said in disbelief. He saw them dressed as farmers and carrying crops, there were also women riding chariots, traders, and children – kites. “It's more like a human city!” anming said with excitement.

He ran into the city door and he couldn't stop staring at his surroundings. City buildings made of walls lined up neatly within the city. Restaurants, merchants, buyers, children – children, and more.

‘This is strange, I see this city like a city in the human world.’ he said in his heart. ‘they trade, play, there are restaurants, and is this really the city of the demons?’

“Buy! Bought it! Let's buy some fresh fish!!” yelled the fishmongers.

“Hanfunya, this is a new and beautiful color!” shouted the clothes sellers.

“Come you know the silk!” shouted the seller to know.

Anming nodded and then walked away. His face was still in shock, but also amazed at the same time. ‘This city feels more peaceful than Luoyang. It's weird, but it's reality!’ anming said inwardly.

 *****

On the other hand, in a fancy restaurant in the city. Shanni put her teacup on the table and then looked at a burly man who had orange tiger ears. Her hair bloomed and her nose was wide with a whisker and a long beard.

“About the newborn tiger demon,” said the man calmly, “hamba has thought it right – right and I think the servant will not be able to teach him.”

Shanni propped her chin on the side of the window. That day she wore a white hanfu in gold on the edge of her shirt and wore a translucent white veil that covered the back of her hair. His long black hair in the back booth with a tall conde decorated with a silver crown.

“Why do you feel incapable? You are the teacher of the generals and warriors of this city.” Said. “I chose you also not without reason.” Answer Shanni.

The man was silent with his head down. “My phone, you can ask me to do anything but I will never be able to train a tiger demon.”

Shanni glanced at the man from the tail of her eyes. “What's Because of your Son?” the answer.

The man was silent and clenched his two hands. “Iya.”

Shanni sighed. “I can't force you if that's your excuse.” Answer Shanni. “But you need to remember, life must go on and never get caught up in that past.”

The man bowed with his hands in a respectful position. “Thank you miss, for your understanding.” Said.

Shanni stood up and the man stood up. Shanni then took the bamboo flute that she put on the table. “I'll be back now, tell your wife that she doesn't need to bring lotus cakes to the temple every day.”

“Good miss.” Answer the man again.

Shanni walked towards the door with the man who was a tiger demon.2 Shanni's cat bodyguard opened the door and just at that moment, Anming was at the door and was stunned.

“Eh?” anming.

Shanni and the older man turned away in shock. “Huh?” both of them from inside the room.

Anming laughed crisply. “Eh hahaha... anu .. I looked for you earlier in the temple.” Anming said with a red face. ‘Too!’ anming said inwardly. He then looked at the old man who was a tiger demon as well. ‘But who is he? it smells like my smell.’ (Anming is getting used to it)

Shanni gave Anming an angry look. “What's up? you're melting the iceberg again?” cetus Shanni's.

Anming's face turned red and he panicked. “Engga, no, you misunderstood not because of that!” 2 The cat demon snorted behind their smiles and Anming felt very embarrassed. ‘He's really mad at me.’ Anming murmured inwardly.

“A-I want to talk to you. Four eyes, this is an important issue.” Anming said. Shanni still gave Anming his angry look

The man next to Shanni bowed. “Nona, you can use this room if you are pleased.” Said the man.

Shanni sighed. “Alright.” replied Shanni.

The man bowed again and then came out. He looked very nervous and went straight out of the hallway. ‘Why does this have to happen? I didn't mean to refuse Miss Li.’'s request Her thought. He was so remembered by the face of Anming and he was so remembered by a boy – yellow-eyed and orange-haired. ‘I ... I won't be able to teach him.’

 ******

Shanni again sat down on the window seat and Anming stood up nervously. But he realized that Shanni's appearance looked more beautiful that day. And she asked – tanya. ‘why did she wear a veil that covered all her hair yesterday huh?’ asked Anming inwardly.

“Do not waste – waste my time, what do you want to talk about?” ask Shanni.

Anming gasped in surprise. “A-I want to apologize about your quiz. Really, I accidentally did it because I didn't know that I could do that.” Answer Anming.

Shanni was silent, but her face looked softer than before. Anming heaved a sigh of relief when he saw her. ‘Thank God, I feel that my heart will be slashed.’ Say it in the heart.

“I also want to apologize because I tried to escape and I will not do that again, I promise.” His word.

“Good.” Answer Shanni.

Anming smiled relievedly “then I want to make a deal with you,” Anming said, Shanni's face turned calm. “I still want to get out of this place and meet my family, but only for 49 days my father died. After 49 days of my father's death, I will return to this temple and will not interfere in my family affairs again.”

Shanni's face turned dark. Anming who saw it gasped in surprise. ‘He's Angry?!’ it's in the heart.

“I told you, you can't get out of this place.” Cetus Shanni's.

Anming is warming up “A-I know, but I already promised you and I'm the guy who always keeps his promises.” He said. 2 stealth cats are starting to feel uncomfortable. “I will actually return to Jinlong temple, I will not run away and interfere in my family affairs again after the promise is agreed.”

Shanni still gave Anming his sharp gaze and Anming began to resign.

“Alright,” Anming's eyes sparkle happy “but before I agree on an agreement from you, I want you to learn to control your power first.”

Anming nodded in spirit “Of course, of course!” the answer.

Shanni turned her face and looked out the window. “But unfortunately your teacher-to-be named Honghu refused to train you for personal reasons. If you really want to come out –, you have to seduce Honghu first to become your coach.”

Anming silent “But Honghu who is it?” tanyakanya.

Shanni propped her chin on the palm. “The orange-haired old man I was with. He's Honghu, the mayor as well as the coach of the first and second generation soldiers of this city.”

Anming recalled the man earlier who gave this room to him and Shanni spoke. ‘Oh she turns.’ Her thought.

“You better start wooing Honghu from now on or you'll be late.”

“Good!” the answer. ‘Honghu, I have to seduce you to become my new teacher I can take a deal with Shanni!’ anming in his heart.
