Chapter 373: He's a talking cat!
Haru and Hong Xia both crept through the forest as quiet as mice to avoid any more interruptions from any possible monster beasts in the area. They had just met with a bear and a pack of wolves in the first few minutes so it was strange that as they followed the footprints onwards there were no more animals in the area.
They walked for a few miles in wonder about what could be the reason for the lack of wildlife but they both knew the real reason why there were no animals.
They had good instincts, even better than humans most of the time. In order to avoid dying an early death before they had time to reproduce animals would stay away from areas they knew were dangerous and the part of the forest that they had walked into was one of those places.
