IRMY Chapter 7

Yuro’s backside a96d5da458 stung from c58bdd8c4c the hard 73af9c8a05 fall, but 08856f849e he forgot 8d35912af1 all about b0623746a2 the pain, 47e45d6ce6 his mouth 6ad68801d6 agape.93482d0a0dbfdd57

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.52a644316cca547c

If he had d0a80ef026 encountered a wild 09b5dd141e tiger in some 594646ef6a remote mountain valley, 56626b677e he could have 12c05f3099 rationalized it as ad33b8a5fd the culmination of 783b8b0fbc his already unlucky 4247203543 life.e5656e421b1a369f

Wasn’t the a5a6b8604e first rule 912f02f886 when encountering 8e571416cb a wild 391d144c55 animal to 44c141bf49 avoid provoking 9c7de8aff9 it? While he 4ab58a217e wasn’t one 93e256e4da to talk, 2b326126a5 having screamed 9af75cbdc4 his lungs 1a38bd4ffc out, he 667edf1b75 didn’t want e0e12bf52a Raymond to d6f24e74a6 become tiger dea84b9ce6 food as 17a1d5f2a8 well.fda7f908903a8b04

He spoke to 5cf6797a0d the tiger as 165dc1f7ac if addressing a b12ec0a8b4 nobleman. Yuro looked around, wondering a4f5e5dfb3 if there were hidden 55e68f82a8 cameras and he was ff2d2de99d being pranked.31b333d79bd2dbdc

That was impossible. Even if this was Kim Yuro’s body, it didn’t make sense. A failed idol who barely had any screen time wouldn’t be the target of such a large-scale hidden camera prank.39a0cbe063505993

Up close, 630e875683 the tiger f2be57e04b was incredibly 341b14a451 imposing. It was 338c770a40 his first cff9a19ec0 time seeing f79889808c a tiger e8035678be this close, 56d37709b7 and he 829d2b0f9e trembled.

Thinking that a single 9c1598a808 swipe of those paws 2dc2b3fcc1 could kill any human, 7253a6ce5d Yuro unconsciously stepped back. The tiger, which f9838bc52b had been sniffing 7a18b30881 Yuro, lifted its 5389c5cc4e head and met d942339a27 his gaze.519545fbd9e8542e

Was it offended? Well, it 40852fba81 was possible. Judging by Raymond’s respectful 133bee5e4d introduction, the tiger understood 906fbced72 human speech to some 9e656153dc extent… in other words, 622d183f7c this tiger wasn’t just bc752bbd18 an animal, but a 4056dbcdc3 spiritual being of some e9373b1da2 sort.8445e45c41b98160

Staring into ba53e34761 the golden cad64f1ef5 eyes, Yuro 9f8746ab78 swallowed hard 5a33bc6855 and spoke 3567511c9e almost pleadingly. He wouldn’t have 5c934726fe been so startled bf55c776c4 if he had 201b92b625 been warned.74fdcd49a946425e

Well… to 8cb2597318 be honest, 59f88c1294 that wasn’t 82c96ffbd6 entirely true. Even if 435fc41a38 he had 5fe3bd1fe5 known beforehand, 03223b3a29 he would 9f9c02c856 probably have 82d0360eea reacted the 4aca74a157 same way.20cc39214959cb07

Sitting down wasn’t difficult, 5a6bd864e1 but the thought of a2c7dedc67 being at eye level 56cdc58c94 with a tiger filled 18d374524f him with dread. However, he didn’t want 96a0399293 to offend Kisha-nim by 6e8591df9e refusing his request for ee02aa4179 a proper greeting.b8ba39240aceecce

The rough 1876a75b21 texture of 9bf4f72550 the tongue 05476a5951 was so 5cde7f560a vivid that 3b4ffd4f50 he wondered ffcbc31082 if he 8043dd7bb9 had indeed fe47674920 been chosen 5941f321be as lunch, f682dc9184 when Raymond, 124c9cf777 as if 4103af1193 reading his 78ff5f48ed mind, said,9ec63106ff68e70b

He gently wrapped his 933c7856e4 arms around the tiger’s fdef9ea3c4 neck. Kisha then c6c9187f30 rested its e453253ef8 heavy head de76c809d1 on him.196c396b20c487ae
