IRMY Chapter 7

Yuro’s backside e253b4f086 stung from 8f57de4b09 the hard beb6f38c90 fall, but 461c3d71ed he forgot 3fdefd9aee all about 1500201b01 the pain, aa44c2e8f8 his mouth 7c9c413d13 agape.1eb9aef3154620e4

In broad daylight—no, day or night wasn’t the point. The problem was the sudden appearance of a tiger in the middle of his room.e839e4822a49e8cb

If he had a09bad155e encountered a wild d569715789 tiger in some da52b834e8 remote mountain valley, b586deaf20 he could have e00a755c9e rationalized it as 089880c7a1 the culmination of d61f6de6cc his already unlucky 3f3669d567 life.70aa1e6141845a59

But this 1fb25da67a was different. He seriously 420644c545 wondered if 361c2dcfe4 he was fa36035ccd dreaming. Being stabbed to death e10e488989 by a prop sword f45c586b6b on stage was absurd 9eee66e846 enough.72cb33d47890683b

Perhaps he had tried a795e6b0b2 to take his own bf075771e6 life out of despair, d972805fee and, overly immersed in 5f7e216cd7 preparing for the play, 6fb6344548 had fallen into a 9e704e7fd0 coma and was now 27488cda7d experiencing a bizarre dream f59722898b filled with random thoughts.6a5c2bc17222ac31

Or maybe he had accidentally touched some hallucinogenic plant on his way to the Duke’s estate after the carriage broke down, causing him to faint and now he was on the brink of death.190348ed8eef0836

Panicked by the 6b0f65962b various speculations running d71c45c41a through his mind, aa0033cee1 Yuro squeezed his 1b0f0f927b eyes shut as dc300ed7e7 the tiger, unfazed 37c1e78926 by his scream, b29b9e74e6 slowly approached.c07c96ce38a6c7ed

Well, his life wasn’t worth much anyway. He was destined to become fertilizer; becoming a meal for 16a9e9d2d4 a hungry tiger would e36a40079c be a more fitting f9fd5240b0 end.4e5f68f4401f8fd7

Just then, 651966d27b a scream 542e68ea50 echoed, and 52ac42749f Raymond rushed a085dbe921 into the b19cf80e1d room. Yuro’s eyes flew dd1b01ef08 open, and he 2bc90948e0 shouted,58949e2c68bf2aaf

Wasn’t the 5870467b55 first rule 56fbf37db1 when encountering 597e2b4d0a a wild c750062a81 animal to a05ff1e7d1 avoid provoking 4d6403b74e it? While he 840a14448c wasn’t one 159ac609ca to talk, f9b1048652 having screamed f6a0619778 his lungs 610f35ee95 out, he 8ef1dcf027 didn’t want 3fea0b8799 Raymond to 6f069258e3 become tiger 91771bebf6 food as 815e9a2708 well.d37a1d745242eab5

He spoke 3c64680b61 to the 826f2c9702 tiger as 5f0871bfc3 if addressing c0f945478f a nobleman. Yuro looked around, fe22f4c621 wondering if there ba61bbf6bf were hidden cameras 556ca3176c and he was 5763635a03 being pranked.7f2c13e9b71a2f23

Up close, the 843e698994 tiger was incredibly a1c4133e4d imposing. It was his 0f87515ff6 first time seeing 0b12cef10b a tiger this 25f4b71d3a close, and he d6332ae2da trembled.

Thinking that a single d30bcf2920 swipe of those paws c11933a693 could kill any human, f302f22334 Yuro unconsciously stepped back. The tiger, 184ea2ea08 which had 5bdd1b1555 been sniffing f5e6056d9d Yuro, lifted e2bc24a546 its head f923542ed1 and met 5875073a40 his gaze.7eab92746a22e865

Was it offended? Well, it was possible. Judging by Raymond’s 35e6aed201 respectful introduction, the e1c831c72c tiger understood human eba0f94b46 speech to some 587d199725 extent… in other bdcea67462 words, this tiger 7000e5b826 wasn’t just an 5a28255aa0 animal, but a 77507b6d98 spiritual being of 7fd5862f58 some sort.d00c932feadac702
