Chapter 240

It wasn't until Elysia pulled out White, that a flicker of emotion crossed Elijah's face.

Seizing the moment, Elysia quickly said, "Its name is White."

Elijah lifted his eyelids, a hint of curiosity in his gaze.

Elysia chuckled, "You must be wondering, why is it all black and yet named White, right?"

Elijah, furrowing his little brows, didn't reply. Elysia took it upon herself to answer, "Because it can perform magic! It's naturally black, but when it meets someone it likes or when something makes it happy, it turns completely white."

Elijah clearly didn't buy it, finally speaking his first words to Elysia, "Why is it black right now? Does it not like you?"

Elysia, thrilled that Elijah was talking to her, pinched herself discreetly to calm down, worried about scaring Elijah with her excitement. "It's not too fond of me. It's my son's pet. Initially, I was afraid it might hurt my son, and I didn't want my son to keep it. I guess it might hold a bit of a grudge against me."

White seemed to understand her words. It glanced at her, then turned away with a snooty air, the epitome of aloofness.

Elijah's interest in White deepened. He stared at White for a while, then placed his little hand on the table, palm up, coaxing White to crawl onto it. White was a small black snake, about the length of a pencil, with a sharply pointed head and potent venom. That's why Elysia initially refused to let Evan keep it when they found it in the forest.
