"Huh? That much!"Rui was surprised by the amount, but nevertheless when his stomach kicked in, he gave in and bought the medicine.

At the side of the feral,

"Useless!" The snake beast men crushed the animal bone head with his bare hands. Their plan had been ruined with all the scent concealing trees burned. The tunnel was also discovered by the foe.

"Please give me one more chance. Instead, I am willing to risk and capture a hundred females back. I won't disappoint you this time".Trex begged. "Females? Really? Winter is coming. How are you going to feed one hundred mouths during winter."The snake beast men questioned.

The snake beast men walked toward Trex, then squeezed his neck. "My lord, ha.. please." The force he used by the snake beast men was not to be underestimated. Just a few more seconds and Trex can lose his life.It was hard for him to breathe. Tear welled up due to the lack of oxygen, and he coughed. However, with the help of dark magic seal, the imperial city was not able to discover their main plan.

As Trex was about to take his last breath, he was thrown brutally to the ground, " This will be the last time," warned the snake beast men. " I don't need incompetent fools."

Trex, who escaped death, coughed from too much suffocating. Although he hated to admit it, He was scared. His trembling body betrayed his pride. But a larger part of him felt resentment over the snake beast men . However, he has to keep this feeling in his heart as the snake beast man is frightening, powerful and also ruthless. He was at his weak point right now. But he did not show it.

When he was about to retreat, he looked at the scorpion beast men beside the lord snake beast men looking down on him. He envied him. Just a while ago, the scorpion beast men also failed. He failed to fight that imperial bastard and failed to capture the female. But instead of punishment, he got praised. Besides, no matter how much he curried favour, it was clear that the snake beast men trusted more on this scorpion bastard than him. With these thoughts, Trex retreated from the lord room and departed.

After Trex retreated, the black male witch stepped forward and asked the snake beast men, "my lord, any orders?"

"Let lay low and retreat for now" the snake beast man answered with obvious Disappointment on his face. "Understood"as the black witch was about to retreat, "wait!"The snake beast men stopped him. "He then had an idea and smirked. He gestured to the black witch to come closer and whispered something. The black witch's eyes went sparkling. They both looked at the scorpion beast men in agreement.

Ace Tribe,

Rui kept thinking that the reason he had diarrhoea was really suspicious. It felt off. But he put that thought away when the messenger pigeon beast men came back from the imperial city. "Greeting."The pigeon beast men said. Rui nodded his head.

Meanwhile, Rui received a reply from the imperial city by a pigeon beast man. According to the reply relayed by the pigeon beast men, the imperial city could not temporarily send a white witch right now. Before, Rui had requested to send a white witch due to the discovery to the enemy using black magic. Magic must be counter back with magic, especially if it involves a spell that controls the mind. The pigeon beast men mentioned that the princess had been affected by the dark witches spell and in need of the white witch. After hearing the pigeon beast man's words, Rui closed his eyes in disappointment. It kind of bothers him. Especially the matter behind that closed door protected by the black magic spell. He has a bad feeling about it. Rui sighed in disappointment. It seems he'll have to leave that matter for now.

Achara looked outside from her house. She went outside and felt the incoming small snow with her hands. Her eyebrow twitched. Winter is coming sooner than expected. Snow has arrived. Small snowflakes fell from the sky, and it had started to accumulate and began to cover some plants a bit. It won't be long for the snow to cover the land. She knows that the weather 'll reach the point that it is so cold that it'll prohibit beastmen from going out. She tried to warm her cold hands with her break. Of course, before that, she had to kick that pervert out of her house.

Today is the last day that she will sell the food at her house. Lately, the situation among the western land is not peaceful, and danger can come at any time. She loved her home she built in this tribe these two years, she has a peaceful life, and she has a friendly relationship with her tribe members. She does not want to change to another location to live. With an uncertainty of safety lurking in the darkness of the western land, she has to grow stronger. She wanted more time to train herself. This is why although she will be doing the cooking, she handed the selling to the boy,Orak who used to sell food for her and let him sell at his house , so she can have her own peace of mind training.

She kept telling every customer about this change of plan and even letting them spread this inform it to others. Just when there were only a few of her food left, two male beast men came running to her store. By judging from their breathing, it was obvious that they came running. These two were no other than Noach and Liam, who she encountered the other day at the river where she almost exposed herself to them.They seem to have rushed to get here.

Achara, who saw them, was a bit awkward. She had not encountered them since that accident when she was thrown to the river and almost got her identity discovered because her concealing smell spray wore off. They are probably included in the list of people she does not want to see for now.
