Cooking with Wild Game (LN)

Epilogue

The next day Seventeenth of the Blue month, evening.

Dinner was being prepared in the Fa house during this time. And Kamyua Yost was bowing at us deeply.

Ai Fa was sitting cross-legged with one knee propped up and had a peeved face. I checked the taste of the soup and looked at the back of his golden-brown hair.

Like what you have already figured out, that caravan was actually a trap to bait out the Tsun clan. There were five Guardians, but the other 18 men were a bunch of tough brutes who usually worked as mercenaries. This was planned entirely by the castle guard commander Malfreed.

Aside from the one who planned this, everything else was how I imagined. As expected, the higher-ups in Genos were trying to bring the Tsun clan to justice.

Erm, instead of the higher management in Genos, this is actually closer to the decision of Malfreed. Marquis Marstein Genos, his father, gave his implicit consent, while the Lord Pyschkurewuss was kept in the dark.

Kamyua Yost slowly raised his head while he spoke.

I see.

I added another pinch of rock salt into the soup.

So the top management of Genos is not united. By the way, seeing how the Genos castle had always ignored the Tsun clans crimes, they sure change their stances quickly.

These matters were completely under the purview of Pyschkurewuss. Because of his negligence, Malfreed, who values justice and the law heavily, decided to wield his blade to pass judgment. Marquis Genos is just watching quietly with an awkward smile.

So his role is to smile awkwardly. The landlord sure has it easy.

He has plenty on his plate after all. Since he had delegated the task to his subordinate, he cant interfere recklessly. Thats how a person with a high standing should act.

Kamyua Yost shrugged nonchalantly, then shirked away when he noticed Ai Fas icy gaze. No matter how docile he acted, he still looked suspicious.

Im in a difficult position too. When Malfreed asked me to help and the planning was halfway done, I became acquainted with you. After speaking with Donda Wu in the Wu clan village, I realized that the Tsun clan was the only clan in Forest's Edge that had fallen into depravity. I also learned that the denizens of Forest's Edge are really a tribe filled with honor This filled me with unease.

You felt uneasy? Why?

When you exposed the Tsun clans crimes, I was worried that the gulf between Genos and Forest's Edge would grow deeper The citizens of the Post Station Town would fear the denizens of Forest's Edge even more, and the denizens of Forest's Edge would feel further disdain towards Genos. I never imagined that the denizens of Forest's Edge would have such strong pride, which is my biggest mistake.

It was difficult to predict that.

I wanted to know what Kamyua Yost really thought, so I didnt butt in.

Thats why I proposed to stop the plan! I really did! But Malfreed refused to listen, he thinks that a crime is a crime, and criminals must be brought to justice. No matter how much noise the denizens of Forest's Edge might make, he believes justice will stand by his side He might look cool and collected, but he is actually a hot-blooded man.

I see. I dont think his idea is wrong.

That was the strange part. I could understand where they were coming from, but I just couldnt accept his way of doing things.

Unfortunately, what Kamyua Yost said didnt unravel the question in my heart.

Not being wrong doesnt mean it is right. Malfreeds right answer is one dimensional. He is only after the logical conclusion of the present. He doesnt care about the past or the future, and only considers things that make sense right now. He doesnt think about the reasons why the crime happened or what kind of future awaits us if he brings down the hammer of justice on the criminal. He is only seeking the justice of the present This might be an easy way of doing this, but that is dangerous.

Kamyua Yost sat down with his cloak on, and his eyes looked distant.

To be frank, Pyschkurewuss from Genos castle ignored the crimes of the Tsun clan. But Malfreed didnt pursue Pyschkurewuss responsibility. Despite not being involved, he still interfered and played an ally of justice. Isnt his style really troublesome? However, Malfreeds objective is to punish the crime, he doesnt want to announce how right he is. He is happy as long as the criminal is prosecuted.

His obsessive compulsion with cleanliness resembled the denizens of Forest's Edge a little.

After hearing Kamyua Yosts explanation, there were a few points I didnt agree with.

Please wait, why did the people from Genos castle refuse to let us stop our business temporarily? They wanted to use us as a bait to lure out Zattsu Tsun, right? In that case, it means they wanted to apprehend the criminal so much that they put the denizens of Forest's Edge and the people of Post Station Town at risk.

The one who refused to let you stop is Pyschkurewuss, Malfreed has no authority regarding the denizens of Forest's Edge. On the contrary, he thinks letting you run your stall is dangerous. The responsibilities of the castle guards dont include patrolling the Post Station Town, but in order to protect your safety, he still did so.

Kamyua Yost drooped his brows guiltily again.

You should have realized by now, correct? I was the one who ignited the sense of justice in Malfreeds heart. Half a year ago, after I got acquainted with him through Marquis Genos, I shared all the information I had with him. I also discussed with him how to improve the twisted relationship between Tsun clan and Pyschkurewuss and also the relationship between Forest's Edge and Genos. In the end, we decided to appoint Zashuma who isnt a merchant, but a Guardian as a strategist and executed this plan. Im the one who coerced him in the beginning, but I lack the capability to lead such a big project involving so many people. So I took a step back and became a supporter and watched things develop quietly.

That suited his personality. I thought this man who liked pretending to be retarded befitted the role of observer the most.

However, I felt worried after talking to you, Ai Fa, and Donda Wu. On top of that, I couldnt tell you the truth, so my heart was filled with guilt. So when I suggested you to open a stall in the Post Station Town, I was just trying to ease my conscience.

Ehh?

If you build up the relationship between the Post Station Town and Forest's Edge, there might be a bit of hope. The fear and detest felt by the people of the Post Station Town towards the denizens of Forest's Edge will ease up a little. Thats what I was hoping for when I initially proposed for you to start a business in the Post Station Town. And of course, I have always believed that the denizens of Forest's Edge deserve a more prosperous life.

If Kamyua Yost didnt propose that I set up a stall I wouldnt have gotten to know Milano Mast, Yumi, Naudiz, Pops Balans entourage, and Shumimarus band.

The Tsun clan wouldnt have requested for me to tend to their hearth, which led to me exposing their crimes of stealing from the forest.

And now, I couldnt imagine what would have happened instead.

Kamyua, you have given us much convenience as a person from the Rock City. I can understand that. But

The denizens of Forest's Edge wont forgive a con man like me.

Kamyua Yost scratched his thin jaw that was covered with a stubble.

Never mind, Im fine with that. Even if all the Forest's Edge thinks of me as a snake, my admiration and respect for you all wont change. But it will be troubling if you dont trust Genos. The denizens of Forest's Edge are righteous and brave, I wouldnt want you to ditch the Morga forest and move to some other forest.

Did you eavesdrop on us again?

I did not! So you really did discuss that? Thats troubling The tribal chiefs met with that Pyschkurewuss a few times already, correct? Do you think that the people from Rock City seem more and more suspicious?

I still didnt know what kind of person Pyschkurewuss was.

Was he really involved with the incident this time?

Can I ask you a question? You mentioned that you wont pursue Pyschkurewuss part in the matter and exposing the Tsun clans crimes would just trouble the people around us. If that is so, why did you ignore Pyschkurewuss and formulate such a crude plan to force the Tsun clan to the preciple?

Hmm? If I want to expose Pyschkurewuss crimes, I will need to flush out his accomplice, the Tsun clan, right?

What?

I thought I heard something incredible.

Kamyua Yost scratched his head and said:

Ah, I never mentioned this, right? I dont have evidence, but two or three of the people hurt by the denizens of Forest's Edge were Pyschkurewuss political enemy. It might look like the works of bandits on the surface, but it happened over a decade ago, so I cant find any solid evidence.

If that is so

And the girls from farming villages abducted by the denizens of Forest's Edge got sold to slave merchants. Putting that with the caravan incident ten years ago, the denizens of Forest's Edge couldnt have traded the loot for copper plates by themselves. It would be more natural to think that someone in Rock City is helping them.

If all of this is known, why wasnt this man sentenced for his crimes?

Because we lack evidence. Thats why we wanted to capture the vicious criminal Zattsu Tsun alive Regrettably, he didnt answer our questions and just kept hailing insults our way.

Although he didnt answer the questions, he confessed that he attacked the caravan of the citizens of the Post Station Town ten years ago before. Malfreed thinks this is the only evidence we can rely on to push Pyschkurewuss to the brink.

So you want to expose Pyschkurewuss crimes next?

Of course. If we uncover any wrongdoing, Malfreed will swing down his sword of justice Since the opponent is an evil aristocrat of Rock City, I can assist him without any hesitation.

Kamyua Yost showed his Cheshire cat-like smile again.

This man Who exactly was he?

I turned to Ai Fa and found her observing Kamyua Yost suspiciously.

Ai Fa, what are your thoughts about him?

Hmm?

He lied to us for tens of days and caused Dali Sauti to meet with danger, dont you want to chastise a despicable liar like him?

No, erm, can you wait until Im gone before you

I dont feel that way.

Ai Fa cut off Kamyua Yost firmly.

I knew this man couldnt be trusted from the start. As for the men of the Sauti clan They fought against kiba as part of their obligation as hunters. The vicious criminals who agitated the kiba are the ones to blame.

Yes, but Kamyuas posse refused the Sauti clans suggestion to increase the number of escorts because they wanted to apprehend the vicious criminals by themselves, right? With that in mind, he really is despicable.

No, erm, well

However, he couldnt have relayed the entire matter to the other party. They didnt know what kind of house the Sauti was, and it would be terrible if the Sauti was actually in cahoots with the Tsun clan. Besides, the vicious criminal might give up on the attack if they saw a dozen hunters working as escorts He was doing this all for the sake of apprehending the vicious criminals.

I agreed with Ai Fa and returned my gaze back to Kamyua Yost.

Similar to how the relationships between the people in Rock City arent airtight, the denizens of Forest's Edge also harbor their own thinking. No matter what, if we want to maintain our relationships, we need to be accommodating, understanding, and communicating properly with each other.

Communicating? Who should communicate with whom?

My people with your people, Forest's Edge and Genos Kamyua Yost, you mentioned before that you dont mind being detested by the denizens of Forest's Edge, and Malfreed has no intentions of justifying his actions. The denizens of Forest's Edge are also apathetic towards the Post Station Town and Rock City citizens. Under such circumstances, how can we form proper bonds?

Hmm?

Kamyua Yost tilted his head quizzingly.

I stared at his face and said:

First of all, you have to give the tribal chiefs of Forest's Edge an honest account of everything that happened. After establishing a minimum level of trust between the two sides, bring Malfreed along to their meeting with Pyschkurewuss that is scheduled to happen a few days later.

Malfreed? Bring him to the meeting? Asuta, that will be huge! Malfreed might be grinding his blade right now as he prepares to expose Pyschkurewuss past crimes!

That might be so, but Forest's Edge already knows that your caravan was a farce and also about that incident 10 years ago. They will definitely bring it up during the meeting If neither you nor Malfreed is present, this matter wont make any progress.

What are you talking about! Asuta, do you think I have to participate in the meeting too?

Am I wrong? My hometown has a saying that Silence is golden, but in the face of such circumstances, silence wont resolve any problems. Everyone needs to come to an understanding by talking it out.

Just wanting the other side to believe you one-sidedly might result in the failure to convey your thoughts properly at times.

No matter how clumsy, sometimes, you have to say how you really feel to convey your intentions to the other party.

After watching Tay Tsuns actions yesterday, I understood this point.

Tay Tsun was like the spokesman for Zattsu Tsun and advocated for the righteousness of the Tsun clans actions. But the denizens of Forest's Edge responded in anger. Not just Ai Fa, Ludo Wu, Rau Lei, Shin Wu, and me all the denizens born and bred in Forest's Edge wanted to speak their piece to Tay Tsun.

And this resulted in the Post Station Towns people hearing what the denizens of Forest's Edge really felt. This was the first time they learned what the denizens of Forest's Edge thought and their feelings towards life.

When Tay Tsuns corpse was taken away and the soldiers released us from custody, Uncle Dora embraced us. He was crying a river, and so was Tara. In the beginning, I didnt know why he was so sad. When he calmed down, Uncle Dora said to us:

I didnt know that the denizens of Forest's Edge were living such a life

We cant thank you enough

Before I met you, I always looked at the denizens of Forest's Edge with disdain, I feel so ashamed

That was the gist of it.

The denizens of Forest's Edge would rather starve to death than pick the fruits of the forest. This truth devastated Uncle Dora. In order to protect the western farms, Genos forced the denizens of Forest's Edge to live such a life. For people like him who owns a farm in the west, this fact must have pained him.

After that, we obviously didnt continue with our business. After preparing the food in the Big Tree of the South Inn, we returned to the Forest's Edge settlement. The next day, or rather today, we entered the Post Station Town cautiously and found that the atmosphere had returned back to normal. And of course, not all westerners smiled at us, and we saw many people showing fear and doubt. But I could feel that something was different.

Unlike the what happened before that incident, this was a difficult-to-describe change they seemed to be observing the denizens of Forest's Edge closely and trying to figure out an answer It wasnt normal discrimination, fear or xenophobia, they were looking at us with a different type of gaze.

Who exactly are they? They were silent, but I could feel them asking this question.

How much resolve did the denizens of Forest's Edge had to make when they hunted? The citizens of the Post Station Town finally got their answer.

What crimes did their brethrens commit that made the citizens of Post Station Town so fearful? The denizens of Forest's Edge also received their reply.

I thought the curtains had just been drawn. Could the denizens of Forest's Edge and the people in the Post Station Town really understand each other? Their personalities might be very different, but could we still be good neighbors and interact with each other? We were finally on the starting line for figuring this out.

In that case, the people from the Genos castle also had to stand at the starting point.

We could give up anytime, but I thought we should work hard towards the goal of understanding each other. And if we found out in the end that we were like oil and water, we could decide to part ways. But before that, no matter how arduous the path might be, we still had to slough on bravely This was in order to avoid Tay Tsuns death, who played the part of the villain until his last breath, to be in vain.

Asuta.

Hmm?

I turned around and saw Ai Fa staring at me with serious eyes.

When will dinner be ready? Im hungry.

Ah, sorry, I just need to grill the hamburg steak.

Ai Fa subtly raised her right hand and covered her mouth. She probably wanted to hide her smile after perceiving the term hamburg steak.

Alright then, I should be going soon. Asuta, I will treat your advice as my homework. Sorry for intruding on your work.

Kamyua Yost stood up gently.

I was preparing to grill the hamburg steaks and turned my head back in surprise upon hearing him say that.

Ehh? Are you not staying for dinner? I prepared three portions.

What? Do you want to dine with me in such a situation?

I thought your visit at this hour implied this as your true goal.

Even the thick-skinned me isnt that shameless

Are you going back then?

No, I will be much obliged!

He announced frantically and suddenly narrowed his eyes.

Asuta, you have grown strong. You are completely different from when I first met you.

Thats true. After being through so much, it would be terrible if I have not grown at all.

I looked at Kamyua Yosts strange eyes.

Kamyua Yost, from the very beginning, you have been an important person to us.

Huh? Why are you saying that all of a sudden? Im just a nomad without fixed roots.

Even so, things wouldnt have become so complicated if we had built a stronger bond. I have been keeping an adequate distance from you too. If I trusted you from the bottom of my heart and you also did the same, there might have been fewer casualties.

But I trust you a lot.

If so, why didnt you tell me the true purpose of the caravan? Why didnt you tell me about the misfortune of the loved ones of Milano Mast and Leito? If you told me that, the men from the Sauti clan wouldnt have gotten injured for nothing.

When he heard my words, Kamyua Yost was at a loss for words, which was a rare sight.

However, you had no other choice back then. After all, I didnt tell you the whole information on the Tsun clans situation either. So we are even there, but

However, if we could get closer to each other and brainstorm about it, we might have been able to find a way to only bring Zattsu Tsun to task without implicating anyone else. This filled me with regret.

I heard that they will permit Tay Tsuns body to be buried in Forest's Edge.

Kamyua Yost suddenly brought up this matter.

He narrowed his drooping eyes which were filled with a clear light.

Yes, his former family members buried him in Forest's Edge personally What about it?

No, nothing. Instead of atoning him by interring him as a criminal in Rock City, this might be a better way of doing it.

Kamyua, if we are to build a stronger relationship of trust, we will have to share what we really think with each other. We cant take the stand that silence is golden Let me be frank with you, I dont like your eyes that seem to be able to see through anything.

Kamyua Yost looked at me with his usual gaze, then shrugged his shoulders under his cloak.

Thats really mean, I have never learned mind reading before.

Anyway, the people of Forest's Edge and Genos castle need to open their hearts to each other. Can you bring Malfreed to the meeting?

That will be difficult, but for the sake of the friendship between Forest's Edge and Genos, I will do everything I can.

After Kamyua Yost said that, he showed a satisfied smile.

At this moment, Ai Fa kept tugging at my sleeve, her eyes were saying:Is the hamburg steak done yet?

There was still a mountain of problems between Forest's Edge and Genos. With that in mind, I cooked dinner for my beloved house head and the friend of ours who liked pretending to be retarded.

Mid Meal Snack: The Hearth Caretaker of the Wu clan

Leina-nee, why do you look so down?

The Wu clan sisters were preparing dinner. Lala Wu who was grilling the poitan asked curiously.

Leina Wu who was cooking the kiba soup answered weakly:

Its nothing

Its not nothing. Did I make you mad?

Not at all, why must I be angry at you?

Well~, because you have been stealing glances at me. I thought you are unhappy about something.

How can that be? I just think your skill in tending to the hearth has improved.

Leina Wu sighed when she answered. Lala Wu raised her eyebrows a little unhappily and leaned closer.

See, you really are feeling down. Just tell me whats on your mind.

I already told you that isnt it Im just a little envious of you and Vena-nee

Hmm? Envious? What do you mean?

You get to help Asuta every day, so your skills are getting better, right? Of course, I will feel envious.

Lala Wu stopped looking peeved, and said confusedly:

Hmm? But Vena-nee and I are just helping to tend to the stall, and dont cut the meat or vegetables. That wouldnt improve our skills at all.

No, you are far better than before. You did very well during the house head conference too.

Really? I will be glad if that is true.

Lala Wu showed her teeth with a smile and then reverted back to her usual expression.

Speaking of which, Asuta is letting Shela Wu grill the meat now. Vena-nee and I will never win against her.

Thats true. I think she is incredible too.

Leina Wu sighed after saying that.

Her culinary skills must be amazing now, and I can never catch up to her now Sigh, I want to help with Asutas work too

Are you saying that because you want to improve your culinary skills?

Huh? What do you mean?

Im just wondering if you want to do this because you want to spend time together with Asuta.

T-Thats not it!

Leina Wus face turned beet red.

It must be nice to work together with Asuta But compared to that, I want to improve my hearth tending skills more! Its true, Im not lying.

Dont be so flustered. Its more natural for you to think that anyway.

Lala Wu piled the grilled poitan onto a plate and shrugged.

Leina-nee, you are still the best hearth caretaker in our family, far better than me and Vena-nee. You dont need to improve anymore, right? Didnt Ludo always say that your cooking tastes the best?

Thats because he doesnt compare me with Asuta

Why are you comparing yourself with Asuta? Asuta is special, you cant win against him.

Leina Wu was stumped.

Lala Wus words surprised her too much.

But, you want to get better at tending to the hearth too, right? Wouldnt it be amazing if your cooking is as good as Asutas?

Huh? Of course, I want to get better at grilling meat. But I will never win against Asuta Leina-nee, are you troubled over this?

Lala Wu asked bewilderedly and scratched her red hair.

Leina-nee, you are thinking of something amazing. If I have to say Im envious of Shela Wu and you who already can serve up delicious meals.

Ehh?

No matter what, dont be too depressed, it will worry the people around you. I can guarantee that your culinary skills are great.

Lala Wu said a little angrily, then shoved a krilee stick through the empty pot.

Its not dark yet, so I will wash the pot. Dont daze around and spoil the food. Everyone is looking forward to your cooking.

After Lala Wu left the stove room, Leina Wu sighed again.

So thats how Lala feels. Even though Im still lacking

Leina Wu wanted to serve even more delicious meals for everyone. If her cooking could rival that of Asuta, how blissful would that be She had been thinking about this for dozens of days.

However, she still couldnt go and help in the Post Station Town. All this time, Shela Wu had been improving steadily and could even tend to the stall when Asuta had to leave. Shela Wus hearth caretaking abilities must be better than hers. When Leina Wu thought about that, her heart became filled with deep regrets.

Shela Wu was an important kin. She was also the daughter of Donda Wus younger brother, a close relative of Leina Wu. As her culinary skills improved, she became more cheerful and bright. Leina Wu was happy for her, but that also filled with regret and sadness.

If Asuta could tutor her, she would definitely get a lot better. Her cooking might be on par with Asutas then Was thinking like this arrogant and ungrateful?

But Leina Wu couldnt stop this feeling.

Lala Wu was right. She did want to meet Asuta. If possible, she still wished for Asuta to become a member of the Wu clan. She hoped Asuta could become her family and to walk down the same path together. Her mind was clogged with such thoughts, which frequently resulted in insomnia.

Compared to how much she thought about Asuta no, because of how much Leina Wu thought about Asuta, she hoped to improve further and get on the same level as Asuta. She wanted to stand on the same height as Asuta and look at the same scenery. Leina Wu probably didnt want to be with Asuta, she wants to be Asuta.

I cant see anything right now. I also want to do the things that Asuta can do so easily. The one Im the most envious of is probably Asuta, not Shela Wu.

Just what kind of emotion was this?

She felt a sadness that seemed to be tightening her chest. The next instant, her heart was filled with jealousy, as if a fire was burning in her abdomen. She never realized that she was such a despicable person. Leina Wu felt like crying.

However, that was just how she was.

Everyone thought that Lala Wus personality was more violent and Vena Wu was more steadfast. However, the strong personality hidden inside Leina Wu was on par with them.

Does Asuta harbor such thoughts too?

Leina Wu thought as she added firewood into the stove.

At this moment, Rimee Wu just happened to return to the stove room.

This dish is done! Hmm? Where is Lala?

Rimee Wu and Grandma Ditto Min Wu were roasting meat in the stove outside.

Leina Wu stirred the soup in the pot and turned her head meekly.

Lala went to wash the pot. Im done too, can you help me get the plates?

Yes, got it!

Rimee Wu moved swiftly and placed plates onto a board according to the number of people. They just needed to bring the pot into the house and serve it to everyone.

Rimee Wu who had done her work walked towards Leina Wu.

Hmm, smells nice! Did you add that ingredient called Tau Sauce?

Yes, Asuta said its well suited for soup.

It looks yummy! Can I try some?

Huh? We are having dinner soon, though?

But Papa and the rest are still out hunting. Im starving and cant wait any longer.

Rimee Wu tugged at Leina Wus waistband while saying that.

Leina Wu smiled wryly and said:Help me get a small plate., and Rimee Wu spun around gleefully.

Todays kiba contained Aria, Chachi, and tino. She also seasoned the soup with salt and Tau sauce. And of course, they added generous servings of kiba meat too.

Tau Sauce was an incredible ingredient. She heard that this was a type of seasoning. Tau sauce couldnt be eaten alone, but by adding it to other ingredients, the food would become delicious, like after using some sort of magic potion.

One bottle of Tau sauce cost ten red copper plates. Ten red copper plates could buy ten fruit wines, or 40 poitan, or 50 Aria. After pleading with her parents for a long time, she finally got permission to buy this bottle of seasoning.

If Leina Wu failed in any one of her cooking, they probably wouldnt allow her to buy Tau Sauce anymore. And so, Leina Wu carefully tasted the soup and used the Tau Sauce cherishingly. She had used it for a few days now, and her parents had yet to scold her.

Heres the plate! Can you add a little bit of meat and vegetables?

Leina Wu nodded and poured the Kiba meat soup into the tiny plate.

Rimee Wu showed a big smile and then sipped the soup.

So yummy! Leina-nee, your soup is the best!

Its thanks to the Tau sauce. Anyone can cook delicious soup with this ingredient.

Thats not true. The meat soup you served in the past is also tastier than everyone elses.

Rimee Wu bit the small piece of kiba cherishingly and continued:

Besides, Asuta also said this before, right? The taste and fragrance of the Tau sauce are strong and wont change even if you cooked it for a long time, so it isnt an ingredient that is easy to use. I dont think anyone can cook such a tasty soup even if they used Tau sauce!

Even so, I still cant beat Asuta.

Leina Wu said depressedly again.

Rimee Wu tilted her head after hearing that.

Is that so? You and Shela Wu will be as good as Asuta one day, right? Although it is impossible for Vena-nee and Lala.

Leina Wu was shocked and stared at the petite face of the Wu clans youngest daughter.

B-But its Asuta, you know? Leaving me aside, even Shela Wu cant defeat him.

Its not true. You and Shela Wu are as passionate towards cooking as Asuta, correct?

Rimee Wu smiled gently.

Ludo once said that the prouder the hunter, the more capable he is. If one was to find joy in the life of a hunter and work with honor, they could become stronger Shela Wu and you will definitely become hearth caretakers that can stand up to Asuta!

Leina Wu became lost for words.

Rimee Wu leaned towards Leina Wu again.

Rimee will work hard, so you have to work hard too, alright? Lets become great hearth caretakers together!

Leina Wu couldnt find the words to answer and placed her hand on Rimee Wus head.

Rimee Wus smile was as bright as the morning sun. The troubling feelings in Leina Wus chest transformed into other emotions as Leina looked at her sister.
