Chapter 24: Encounters and Warnings

Her large brown cat ears swayed and her brown long tail happily swayed behind her.

Shen Xinghui was left speechless, although he has been told about Beast Man before, but seeing one in person was an entirely different experience.

It was incredible.

First, the ears.

The large ears twitched every time they caught a sound.

The fact that they were moving meant they were real.

Then, the tail.

It moved too, swaying from the base.

It was amazing.

It felt like he was seeing something fantastical.

"He is someone from another world that I found in the Aldrathian Great Forest. His name is Shen Xinghui."

"Someone from another world! How rare!"

The Cat Girl, with her large green eyes sparkling, was difficult to look at without feeling awkward.

Her bust was quite full, and her cleavage was visible.

No, was she showing it off intentionally?

"Hey, Tara, stop seducing him. Shen Xinghui is clearly flustered."

"I’m not doing anything like that. Ignatius, you’re so narrow-minded."

While Shen Xinghui was stunned, Ignatius stepped in to protect him and pulling him close.

Tara, on the other hand, was grinning mischievously at the scene.

At least, they had secured a room safely, which eased Shen Xinghui’s worries.

Currently, they were eating a light meal at the inn’s dining area.

He had decided to eat there since it was available.

The food in his waist pouch was only emergency rations.

After all, there were times when they might need to camp out, so it was better to keep it for such occasions.

"Still, Beast Man make quite an impression, don’t they?"

Shen Xinghui’s gaze naturally wandered to Tara.

Her short skirt and form-fitting attire revealed her body shape as she moved gracefully between tables while carrying a variety of dishes.

Her sense of balance was incredible—no matter how many plates she held, she didn’t wobble one bit.

"Is it really that impressive?"

"Her appearance indeed impressive."

"Because of her big chest?"

"No! I mean the ears and tail—it’s just it was my first time seeing it. Honestly, I’m glad the first person I met was you, Ignatius. If it had been a Beast Man right away, I think I would’ve panicked."

Ignatius, though a Dragon Man, appeared mostly human.

There were faint gold lines at the edges of his eyes and a gold mark on his forehead, but he didn’t have any features that screamed "dragon."

It was this appearance that made Shen Xinghui feel safe.

"Beast Man appearance change depending on their species. Tara is a Cat Beast Man so she looked small and agile, while a Bear Beast Man have huge body. Wolf Beast Man have high combat ability and Fox Beast Man have strong psychic power, and there are other species such as tigers, lions, rabbits, birds and squirrels."

"I’m looking forward to meeting them, but I might be surprised each time."

Shen Xinghui forced a wry smile and thought to himself that he needed to get used to this world quickly.

Noticing that Shen Xinghui was looking at her, Tara walked over with a playful look on her face and sat down next to him.

Ignatius’s expression darkened slightly.

"Ignatius, it’s so obvious. You can’t help but adore this kid, can you?"

"What do you mean?"

"Hehehe, It’s so obvious you can’t fool me."

Ignatius glared at Tara as if to warn her.

Meanwhile, Tara, still grinning, linked her arm with Shen Xinghui’s.

Her full chest pressed against his arm, and he blushed, unsure of how to react.

"Oh, Xinghui, you’re so cute. Getting your face turned all red like that. Could it be... you’ve never had any experience?"

"W-well, that’s..."

"Oh, I hit the mark, didn’t I?"

"Tara!"

Ignatius shot a glare at Tara, clearly upset, and Tara stuck her tongue out at him before backing off.

"Do you need something?"

"Geez, you’re so blunt. You’re a handsome guy, so you should be more charming."

"Do you need something?"

"Fine, fine. I just wanted to pass along something that might interest you."

Tara’s expression suddenly turned serious.

The change in atmosphere made both Shen Xinghui and Ignatius focus and listening to her intently.

"Lately, it seems like dark merchants have been showing up around here. There’s talk of illegal trading."

"Is that true?"

Ignatius’s eyes narrowed with a hard look.

Shen Xinghui didn’t know all the details, but the mention of those words sent an uneasy feeling through him.

"You know, with the breeding season for the Wombroot Aphrodite Vine King and other things, it seems to be a busy time. Xinghui, you should be careful."

"Me?"

Shen Xinghui pointed at himself in surprise, unsure of what exactly he should be cautious about.

Tara, in response, said, "Of course."

"You’re unfamiliar with this world, and being from another world, you’re a rare sight. If you get caught, they’ll sell you off like merchandise. And it’s not just illegal labor or smuggling—people might exploit you in other ways. You’re so cute, so if someone with malicious intention finds you, they might take advantage of you."

"What?!"

Shen Xinghui was stunned by such a dark and terrifying conversation.

After all, everyone he had met so far had been kind, so he didn’t think there were people like that around.

But when he thought about it more calmly, it made sense.

It was just that the people he’d met so far happened to be good people.

The world wasn’t full of people like that—there were definitely bad people too, and bad things happened.

"You isn’t even registered as a resident of this world yet, so you’re sort of like a black household. People can take advantage of that and do things under the radar because there’s no way for anyone to track your actions."

"No way to track?"

Shen Xinghui tilted his head, confused.

Tara showed him her arm, where a golden bracelet with brown jewels was firmly attached.

"This is proof of being registered as a resident of this world. With this, a record of your actions is kept. If you pass through checkpoints, or if you commit a crime, it gets recorded. But you don’t have one, do you?"
