A certain day, a certain month, and a certain year. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Then again," Albert said casually, looking up at the starry sky in the hot springs, "and you have always asked me questions, but I have never known anything about you." That's a bit unfair. ＂

"What?" said the cat-man boy, who was walking over to enter the hot springs, "Is there anything you want to ask?"

"First of all," Albert stared at the piece of cloth wrapped around his waist under Luff's crotch, "what are you doing here? It's just the two of us in the wilderness, you kid need to hide it like this?"

"Uh, but ------" the cat-man boy turned his face away, hiding his flushed face.

"Hey, hey, hey------" Then the tiger reached over with one hand and removed the cloth wrapped around the waist of the cat-man boy.

"Wow, aa

"yes, I see, it's so small. The tiger man had a mischievous face: "No wonder you want to hide it from me, it turns out that it is an inferiority complex." ＂

"It's noisy!" Ruffy buried his head in the water with a flushed face, and as he muttered his words, a bubble came out of the hot spring: "I'm growing my body too, and one day that thing will get bigger." ＂

The tiger grinned even more: "How big do you want to be, it's just a kitten." ＂

Luffy glared at Albert and didn't speak.

"Whew, I'm not kidding, let's get down to business------" Albert leaned his back against the boulder at the edge of the pool again. The heat of the hot springs is suddenly inferior to the warm slates, which bring a burst of relaxation and comfort to the tiger. The tiger breathed a long sigh of relief before asking, "You have been following me for quite some time, and I have never seen you take a leave of absence to rest except for the last time when you took a two-week vacation. You don't have to go home and see the meow once in a while?"

The cat-man boy who was soaked in the water trembled all over, he thought for a moment before replying: "It's useless to go back, my parents are long gone, and even if I go home, I just go back to an empty home." ＂

"Uh...... Meow like this. Alber turned his face away and didn't dare to look at Luff. Now it's more embarrassing.

"But you, your father should be the chief of the Fierce Tooth Clan, right? I don't seem to have seen you take a leave of absence to go home to rest. Luffy asked rhetorically.

"Don't tell me about my family. Albert's face darkened suddenly.

Strictly speaking, Albert's father robbed Albert's woman------ obviously it was Albert who first pursued the snow leopard girl Deanna, but he didn't expect Deanna to accept Albert's love at all, but instead went to marry Robert. The woman who was supposed to be Albert's girlfriend turned out to be the stepmother of the tiger youth, which was really embarrassing, so Albert tried not to mention it as much as possible, and there was no need to go home as little as possible.

"Hey, it's not interesting. It was only then that Albert realized that it was not a good idea to ask each other about the situation at home, and he and Luffy questioned each other, and immediately stabbed each other like hedgehogs.

"Tell us about yourself. Do you have someone you like?", so Tiger changed the subject and asked.

The cat-man boy, who had been soaking in the water for too long and was going to take his head out of the water for ventilation, suddenly turned red: "Uh, why do you suddenly ask this kind of question again." ＂

"Look at this reaction, there should be, right?" Albert grinned again: "Hey, hey, you bad boy, what kind of girl's bad idea are you fighting?" Is it from your hometown, or is it from the Beast Hunters?"

Luffy pouted: "No, don't ask again!"

"Really not?" Albert skillfully applied to Luff's words, "if the person you like is in your hometown...... Well, it can't be, otherwise you'd have taken more time off to go back to see her. In other words, the person you like is within the Warcraft Hunter Organization, huh, this is an unrequited meow? You don't go back to the organization headquarters with me very often, and I can count the huntress I meet on ten fingers when I go back------------ so who among those huntress do you like?"

"I'm not going to take care of you!" said Luffy, who buried himself in the water again, and even covered his ears to prevent the hot spring from seeping into his cat's ears.

Albert knew that in this case Luffy would not reveal any more information to him, and it would be useless to ask any more questions.

Still, Albert was a little reluctant to give up. He wanted to get Luffy to speak, or at least to get the imp out of this self-enclosed state.

So the tiger reached out into the water and fished out a cat's tail ------.

He bit down hard at the cat's tail.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!" Luff jumped out of the water, literally soaring into the sky. He screamed and angrily asked Albert, "What are you doing?! Why are you biting me!!"

"Aha, just trying to trick you. The tiger let go of the cat man's tail, pretended to be aggrieved and said, "Who told you to ignore me!"

"Don't act like a child!" The cat boy is often made to cry and laugh by the childish behavior of the tiger, and at this time Luffy can only scold.

"Meow ha!" Albert laughed out loud in amusement.

The cat man boy stared at the tiger thoughtfully. There are some things that he just can't say. Then a dark shadow suddenly appeared behind the tiger, and Luffy subconsciously narrowed his eyes, trying to see what the big black shadow was in the smoke of the hot spring.

"By the way, there's one thing. The tiger now spread his arms and landed his hand on the edge of the stone at the edge of the pool, "The last lesson of the hunter's mind, I haven't taught you meow all along? ＂

"What?" said Luffy, confused.

Roaring, roaring------ huge demonic beast suddenly broke through the fog and attacked Albert and Luffy, who were soaking in the hot springs.

As if anticipating ------a sneak attack by a monster, Albert leaped out of the water gorgeously and jumped onto the back of the huge monster before he could be hit by the monster.

His hand had been groping for the stone at the edge of the pool, but by this time he had an extremely sharp, poisonous beast tooth dagger in his hand. He rode on the back of a huge chimpanzee monster, and with a knife in his hand, he cut the back of the monster's neck in one fell swoop!

Blood splattered, flesh and blood separated, and the sharp blade cut the cervical nerve of the huge demonic beast without any suspense!

Boom! The monster fell to the ground and plunged headlong into the pool, making a huge splash.

"One last lesson from the Monster Hunter: Never let your guard down and be ready to be attacked by a Monster at any time. The tiger jumped away from the monster's back and sighed, "Tsk, it's rare that this meowy natural hot spring pool has been ruined by this monster like this." ＂

At this time, Luffy also crawled out of the spring with a blank face, because the blood of the dead chimpanzee had polluted the entire pool, and the clear spring water suddenly turned a turbid red and black.

"Luffy," Albert kicked the chimpanzee's corpse, "as your master, I've already taught you everything I can teach you." After a long period of observation, I think you have been able to become a Warcraft hunter in your own right. So you'll be considered a graduate from today. ＂
