Chapter 25: Protect Our Female

Lee asked a hawk beastman to hunt a prey for dinner. Zin is standing near the door, like a guard. Wayde and Lee are sitting around another fire they built.

"I saw those papers. Does she also know how to read and write?" Lee asks in a low voice to Wayde.

Wayde just nods, knowing that there's no point on hiding things from Lee and Zin. They heard too much.

Lee sighs and passes his hand in his forehead.

"I don't know if you understand how dangerous this is. Those monsters might have heard about her and they came here to get her." Lee says.

"Of course, I understand. I was planning on using her salt knowledge to have money and power to have people to build a castle and protect her."

"I have money and power, and I think that the castle is the best choice too. Beastmen need to be trained to get stronger marks and be capable of fighting off invaders. This area will become more popular and dangerous with more females."
