Beggar Cultivation System-Chapter 299 : Bubba is Out

Bubba opened one eye, and upon realizing he was the only one left, a smirk appeared on his monkey face.

He stood up after cultivating for almost an hour.

The monkey then slowly made his way outside the beggar spot, and as soon as he did, the bustling scene of people walking about greeted his eyes. But Bubba stayed in the corner where people wouldn't easily notice him.

He observed the humans passing by, his eyes burning with curiosity. This was what he always did whenever he had free time—sometimes from the rooftop, where he could see even more.

There was one rule he must never break: to never leave this corner of the restaurant or jump away from the rooftop of Filly Restaurant.

He had tried it once... and the memory of the consequence made him shiver.

Bubba didn't want to eat another one of that red food! It burned his throat and tongue like crazy! Even when he tried to use Qi, the pain didn't stop, as though the spiciness was endless.

The source of this c𝓸ntent is freewebnøvel.coɱ.

Just thinking about it made the monkey's face turn red.

Bubba shook his head to rid himself of the nightmare.

Suddenly, the sound of a door opening echoed, making him turn to its source.

He saw the Filly Restaurant's door open from the inside, and a woman walked out, followed by several workers.

The workers were carrying a ladder, a cloth, and a bucket filled with water. They set up the ladder and began cleaning the restaurant's signage.

Bubba recognized the woman. He knew she was the 'master' of these people and a friend of his despicable owner.

The monkey watched with curiosity as they worked, but a few moments later, he lost interest.

What Bubba wanted to see was something more exciting. Sometimes, he saw fights on the street—some between the old, others between the young—and those fights always entertained him.

However, it seemed there was no drama for him to watch today.

What bad luck.

The monkey continued observing the street for a while, then shook his head in disappointment. He decided to go back inside and cultivate.

But just as he was about to do so, the woman commanding the workers noticed him. She walked in his direction and stopped in front of him.

The sight of the woman caused Bubba to become alert—his hair standing on end, pupils dilating. At the same time, his muscles began to tense, especially in his legs.

"Don't be tense, little one," Filly said with a smile, lowering herself to touch the monkey's head. "I'm friendly."

Feeling her soft touch, Bubba relaxed, enjoying the sensation. The monkey even let out a small cry of satisfaction.

"Haha," Filly giggled as she saw the monkey enjoying her touch. "You're cute. But what are you doing here? This place isn't for you."

She picked up the monkey in her arms and stood up.

Bubba pointed toward the beggar spot and began explaining in his monkey voice, gesturing with exaggerated hand movements.

At first, Filly was confused, but when she saw him pointing repeatedly to the corner where Mr. Beggar resided, she realized the monkey in her arms belonged to her benefactor—the benefactor of the entire city.

"Oh, I see. Your owner must be Mr. Yoma," Filly said, her eyes lighting up with understanding. This was her first time seeing Mr. Beggar's pet. Though it was unusual for an animal to possess this level of intelligence and communicate through gestures, when it came to Mr. Yoma, nothing seemed surprising.

Bubba nodded in agreement.

"My apologies for picking you up," Filly said with a bitter smile as she attempted to put the monkey down. However, Bubba wrapped his limbs tightly around her arm, refusing to let go.

Seeing this, Filly's eyes widened in surprise before softening. She stood up and stared directly into the monkey's eyes. "So, what do you want?"

"Oh oh ah ah!" Bubba pointed toward the restaurant beside them, then gestured as if eating, alternately pointing at his mouth with his hands.

"You want to eat?" Filly asked.

Bubba hurriedly nodded.

"Alright!" Filly smiled. Finally, she had a chance to do something for her benefactor.

She felt that just giving them food every day wasn't enough. The journal the beggar had given her was essentially a treasure book she needed to protect with her life. Thanks to it, her restaurant was booming.

Even the Skyline Savory branch across the street didn't stand a chance anymore.

To her, if there was anything she could do for Mr. Beggar, she would gladly do it!

Filly walked over to the workers still cleaning the restaurant's sign while holding the monkey in her arms. "That's enough. Let's head inside."

Followed by her workers, Filly entered the restaurant.

When the door opened, Bubba's eyes sparkled with excitement and anticipation. This was his first time entering a restaurant! He knew sneaking in was wrong, but…

A delicious aroma wafted into the monkey's nose, and his eyes locked onto its source.

He saw fried chicken—plump and mouthwatering. A human holding the food took a big bite, and the loud crunch echoed in Bubba's ears, sending him into a euphoric state.

Saliva threatened to drip from his mouth as he took in the sight. Around him were various types of delicious food.

Bubba couldn't help but recall his previous meals. He only ever got to eat scraps of skin and meat, and if he tried to eat more, his owner—the small and annoying human—would punish him by feeding him that dreaded red food. There was nothing he could do but obey.

But now, an opportunity lay before him. An opportunity that would undoubtedly lead to punishment if his owner found out.

Yet Bubba's senses were overwhelmed by the enticing smells and sounds of eating all around him.

Filly walked to an empty table and placed the monkey on it. A worker approached, handing the monkey a menu.

"Please choose what you want, Sir… monkey?" Filly said with a chuckle.

Bubba scratched his head, unable to understand the words on the oversized menu.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you could read," Filly said, apologizing. She paused to think before whispering something to the server beside her.

The server nodded and walked toward the kitchen to place the order.

"I ordered what I usually give your master. I hope this will satisfy you, Sir," Filly said with a smile.

Although the creature before her was just an animal with no apparent cultivation… wait! A sudden thought struck her.

She spread her senses toward the monkey, and what she discovered shocked her: the monkey was at the 1st-Step Foundation Building stage!

"Mr. Yoma is truly amazing… having a normal animal at a cultivation stage is unheard of."
