Chapter 6: The cat-eared girl
Ji Bai had spent less than 10 minutes gorging down the bowl of noodles. Once that was done he bid farewell to the owner and walked out of the shop. He casually shot a glance towards the luxurious restaurant; the four knights sitting in there had vanished without a trace.
Ji Bai whose belly has been filled to the brim from the lunch he had earlier was very content. He had regained his confidence in job hunting and embarked on his quest once more.
With the scorching sun above him Ji Bai walked on the street using a toothpick to scrape off the food debris stuck between his teeth. He was planning to toss it away but to no avail as there were no trash bins in his vicinity.
As an excellent knight that had once undergone excellent education he was naturally not going to commit the barbaric act of littering.
After looking around for a while Ji Bai had fixed his gaze onto a small alley beside him.
Its possible that theres a rubbish bin inside. Ji Bai thought as he slowly walked inside. Just when he tossed the toothpick into a rubbish bin and was preparing to head out a strong smell of blood began to assail themselves onto Ji Bais nostrils.
Can you please dont harm m-mi? I I have never harbored any ill intention towards mankind. Even when I am hungry I have never thought about harming humans Her puerile shivering voice had a trace of snivel in it.
As a former knight am I beginning to waver? Ji Bai bit his lips and clenched his fist. He was momentarily at a loss and clueless about the actions he should take.
DemonsDemons are the enemy of mankind. If we dont promptly eliminate them there will inevitably come a day where mankind will be completely annihilated. Wont I stand against mankind if I am to let her slip now? One must never be softhearted when it comes to those packs of beasts!
Thinking up to this point Ji Bais face revealed a conflicted expression. He gritted his teeth as if he had made his final decision and slowly walked towards the young helpless catgirl.
Uhuhu~ I am s-sorry. I am just too unbearably hungry. Thats why I came and flipped the trash can over If what I am doing is wrong I wont do it again
Ji Bai who had just arrived at the catgirls side was once again thrown into a daze. Looking at the catgirl who was emaciated from starvation and the wounds that were on various parts of her body certain parts of his memories began to repeat in his mind.
His tightly clenched fists eventually relaxed Ji Bai heaved a sigh. He felt that he was getting old and was beginning to be sentimental like an effeminate man.
Dont move.
Eh? Seeing Ji Bai extending his hands over panic began to show in the young catgirls complexion.
Let me bandage your wounds dont move. Ji Bai squatted down and took out a white handkerchief from his pocket. While holding the delicate and snow-white ankle of the young catgirl with his hand he began to bind the wound up in a simple manner. No matter what he had to stop her bleeding first.
