HEPO - Chapter 7: Caused Trouble

Since Liu Ji had turned back into human, naturally, potatoes were off the menu.

To obtain sufficient food, the young swordsman decided to venture into the forest to hunt.

Osar wanted to tag along, but the young swordsman didn't feel at ease leaving Yaine alone with Liu Ji, and thus, the tigerman was forcibly made to stay.

Now, Osar was idly sitting by a newly lit fire, while Yaine was focused on writing and sketching in a small notebook nearby. Not far from them, Liu Ji was slowly flipping through a thick, heavy old tome.
