After Giving Birth, All My Beast Ex-Husbands Suddenly Want Me Back Chapter 161: New device

[Host, it’s ready.]

Little Bun opened the display panel.

[Host, this is the locator you requested. The main system has already completed signal coverage—however, for now, it only works within the wilderness region. Expanding coverage across the entire continent will take more ti.]

"Alright."

Nina examined it carefully.

The price was steep—but she had already made up her mind.

She had first thought of this after Linny nearly got lost.

Then, when she learned Lex had once considered stealing the eggs, the idea only grew stronger.

The children were getting bigger.

Sooner or later, they would wander farther and farther.

And if one of them ever got lost...

No.

She wouldn’t allow that to happen.

If she could prevent it, then she would.

Over the past few days, she had asked Ridan and the ghost wolves to gather resources for her.

Now, she was practically a small fortune-holder.

More than enough to afford sothing like this.

[Host, the usage manual is displayed below. This locator not only tracks position, but also supports voice communication and real-ti video. However, the video feed is only visible on your end.]

Little Bun brought up another interface.

[It can be charged using specific energy cores, which you can purchase anyti from the system store.]

Nina picked one up, turning it over in her hand.

"So if I press this button at the bottom, I can start a conversation?"

[Yes. This version is designed as a necklace. The bottom button is the switch—press the left side for voice communication, the right side for video. Press again to turn it off. The slot on the side is for inserting the energy core.]

Another panel appeared.

[This is the map provided by the main system. It displays the position of each locator.]

Nina studied the map.

Mountains, rivers, forests—every terrain was clearly marked.

It was impressively detailed.

"This is great. Thank you, Little Bun," she said. "Can I test it with them first? If everything works, I’ll place an order."

[Of course! This product supports trial use.] Little Bun’s tone turned cheerful.

A big order like this... once completed, I can finally upgrade.

"Alright. I’ll take it out and test it now."

Nina exited the system, holding several of the locators.

She called a few of them over.

"Odian, I have sothing new I want you to help test."

"What is it?" Mino asked curiously.

She handed each of them a locator, explaining as she did:

"This is a special necklace. If you press here, you can communicate over long distances. And I’ll also be able to sense your location through it."

"So it’s that amazing?" Sal turned the crystal necklace over in his hand.

It looked like nothing more than an ordinary piece of crystal.

And yet, it could do sothing like that?

The design was intentional.

Nina had asked the system to make it look like a simple accessory.

That way, when the children wore them, they wouldn’t attract attention.

"Mm," Nina nodded. "Later, each of you go in a different direction. I’ll co find you."

She paused, assigning them.

"Odian, stay closer. Sal and Mino—you can go farther."

"Alright."

None of them doubted Nina’s words. Once they learned how to use the devices, they each chose a direction and set off.

Nina decided to test the nearest one first—Odian.

After connecting, she spoke into the crystal, "Odian, can you hear ?"

On the other side, the necklace at Odian’s chest gave a faint vibration. He pressed the button—and almost instantly, Nina’s voice flowed clearly from within the crystal.

A flicker of surprise crossed his face. "Nina... I can hear you."

It actually worked.

"Now press the small ridge on the right," Nina instructed.

Odian followed her instructions.

At once, Nina could see the surroundings from his side.

"It’s working," she said. "Stay where you are—I’ll co find you."

"Alright."

Nina handed the children over to Kith and the others, then set out to find Odian.

Aviel stayed close at her side, quietly guarding her.

She opened the system map.

On it, Odian’s position was marked clearly—along with two moving points representing Sal and Mino.

Guided by the map and Little Bun’s navigation, Nina quickly located Odian.

"Nina... you really found ."

Odian’s gaze softened with quiet amazent.

This small crystal was far more useful than it appeared.

With sothing like this, they would never have to worry about losing each other again.

The only flaw was that only Nina could track them.

They couldn’t locate her in return.

But even so, being able to communicate was already invaluable.

"Let’s go find Sal and the others," Nina said.

She activated the connection again.

"Sal, are you heading north?"

"Yeah," Sal replied, perched atop a tall tree. "Nina, I can really hear you. This crystal is incredible."

"Good. Stay where you are—I’ll co to you."

Beside her, Aviel listened as Sal’s voice erged from the crystal.

His eyes widened slightly.

"Nina... this can transmit voices across distance?"

"It can," Nina said with a small smile.

"Incredible..."

Aviel couldn’t hide his admiration.

Nina led the way, finding Sal with ease.

After that, they went to locate Mino, who had run even farther.

Once all the tests were complete and every function confird, Nina made her decision.

She purchased one for each of the children.

And one for each of her three mates.

Holding out several small energy cores, she explained,

"These are for charging. If the crystal grows dim, it ans it’s running low on energy. Just replace it with one of these."

One core could last quite a long ti.

There was no need to change them often.

Odian and the others carefully stored them away, treating the small crystals with quiet reverence.

Nina fastened the locators around each of the children, adjusting them carefully.

"Make sure you keep these on at all tis," she reminded them gently. "Don’t take them off casually, alright?"

The children touched the little crystal pendants with bright curiosity.

Got it.

"Do you rember how to use them?" Nina asked. "Show ."

The children eagerly followed her instructions, pressing the buttons just as she had taught them.

When Nina’s voice suddenly ca through the crystals, their eyes widened in amazent.

Then, almost imdiately, excitent took over.

They began playing with them, chattering and laughing as they tested the devices over and over.

After a while, Nina stopped them with a soft laugh.

"That’s enough for now. If anything happens, you must tell imdiately, okay?"

The children nodded obediently.

Okay!

She adjusted each necklace again.

They had all been specially designed to match their beast forms—and could resize freely.

Each one fit perfectly.

Just as she finished, Yanai walked in, carrying a tray of food.

"Nina, I made so desserts for you. Try them."

He set the small dishes carefully on the table beside her.

He had practiced these many tis.

They should be... decent now.

Before he could get any closer, Shushu suddenly leapt forward, planting himself in front of Nina.

"Arf! Arf!"

He bared his tiny pink gums fiercely.

Big bad wolf—don’t co near my mother!

Yanai let out a short scoff.

"You little brat—your teeth haven’t even grown in yet, and you’re already trying to snarl?"

Nina blinked, puzzled.

Why does Shushu seem to dislike him so much?

He didn’t react this way to the others.

She picked up a bowl of creamy dessert.

"Thank you."

The children imdiately gathered around her.

"Mother, we want so too!"

Nina began feeding them with a spoon.

Yanai stepped forward at once.

"Nina, you eat. I’ll feed them."

He took the bowl prepared for the children.

"Co on, I’ll feed you."

Then his gaze shifted to Shushu.

"Nina... he’s still too small, right? He can’t eat this yet?"

"Mm, not yet," Nina said.

The children crowded around Yanai.

But Shushu turned his head away stubbornly, curling up against Nina’s leg.

Hmph. That bad wolf’s food must taste terrible.

I’ll have Father Mino make mine in the future.

Nina gently stroked his soft fur.

"When you grow a little bigger, you can eat it too."

Shushu nuzzled against her.

I’ll grow up quickly.

And so, days passed in quiet peace.

Until one day, a group of beastn approached the tribe.
