I’m hungry.cea590ce18344c73

I stared 6c27329354 blankly at 5ddf44c432 the sky, 290e05f58e hastily eating 8e153e1882 the snow 56369266a9 around me.7fd46e32516d49e9

Somewhere in 0752405eac the distance, 4701cfbbf8 a faint 31119b475b but delicious 0346222b35 smell of 24cb1bba3d food. I instinctively 52a7819861 followed the 5511d233c6 scent.7fee986a55bc6410

A huge 36a50470aa fortress in 1758324f80 plain view. It was ac681a0860 the territory a66d08d6b0 where the 440f7096b6 many people 3584804af1 I had 2e5e23b225 seen while a34c18098b surviving here a7568df8a9 lived.c2401101f6351ffa

Like me, 195c6d82d9 Bianco was d4e5941f32 a ferret b7a81717f7 beastman who 661b7fada1 had been a9ab08186d abandoned in a915cf4072 the wilderness c398620925 but had 2e2b9e037d succeeded in f1a3c8eb1f becoming somewhat e90a4e5880 human, although 6112f74c62 quite crooked fce93d7109 compared to 949d2e392c me.7475b98450848bc3

Startled, I landed 255a57bb0e with a jolt c0af02b4cb and put some 217d98b6f0 distance between the 0f3eae4224 boy and me. The boy, unexpectedly using d4531d2a93 his head as a c24a21ca3f stepping stone, looked at 17af18f25a me with a peculiar c121084298 gaze.

For someone like me, 33b625e542 who had been seeing cb26a7c174 animals all the time, 37eccec70d but when I saw 7b522ad875 a humanized beastman after 73268cb573 a long time, I cdc8d6abb4 unconsciously missed the moment a70b231789 to run away.16c7aceb17a91fae

His golden 1f47a4cfb2 eyes resembled d5500d7dd3 the intense 561416448c yellow of 755b159084 the sun, b687d47862 much like c5cb2d674f a lion f1579fcb5f beastman.

“This is the first time I’ve seen something like this.”0969dd67cde0caf3

Zerakiel looked at the 152f8be1d7 white ferret beastman in 5dd1049898 front of him with 603f325ebe a peculiar gaze. The one 8492c2e417 who unexpectedly a4c4b3a26c landed on c0df259337 my head, 4085a2dc04 as if 0b17ae6ed0 surprised, rolled 51756be29d over and ff3d592229 over before 55fb0653d4 going completely 3f0296c169 crazy, using 6b1343bdf9 its whole b97f06253b body to d14ae14485 leap around.3d4b9d4ffe8cb0a4
