HEPO - Chapter 10: Well-Done

Liu Ji had never eaten raw meat in his life before.

Having been raised in a typical Chinese family and accustomed to fully cooked food from school cafeterias, raw meat was a no-go for him. Even his steaks had to be well-done; medium-rare was simply out of the question for him.

"Got it. But I've been meaning to ask." Mervant crossed his arms. "Are you maybe a tad too concerned about this mysterious potato man of unknown origins?"

"I've mentioned it before, we need a guide," said Yaine, frowning.
