With Third weighing tens of kilograms in her arms, Bai Qingqing walked towards her bonfire.

Curtis, Parker, and Winston were all there. White and fragrant smoke rose from the roasted prey, whose top layer had been cooked.

Gatherings here were similar to that of the City of Beastmen. Here, basically, it was also one female to one bonfire. There were more beastmen gathered around some bonfires and fewer around others. Bai Qingqing’s bonfire had one of the fewest people around it.

As there were few tiger beastmen, all the male beastmen were allowed to participate. Those without spouses came together and shared a bonfire.

Bai Qingqing walked to them and sat down between Parker and Curtis. She looked around and caught sight of Bluepool under a tree with no one around.

“Bluepool, come and eat with us.” Bai Qingqing sneaked a glance at Parker and Curtis as she spoke. Seeing that neither voiced objections, she heaved a sigh of relief.

Bluepool gazed at the bonfires laid around and, after a moment’s hesitation, transformed into a human and walked towards Bai Qingqing.

Many females would secretly peek at the merman. Upon seeing his revealed reproductive organ, they couldn’t help but look away.

Mermen’s reproductive organs were also very beautiful. While a land beastman’s reproductive organ could be described as a grotesque weapon, mermen’s reproductive organ was likened to exquisite fine jade.

The atmosphere changed subtly.

Even those males who hadn’t noticed Bluepool earlier couldn’t help but look towards him with a sense of enmity.

Bluepool ignored everyone’s gazes and merely cast a wary glance at Curtis. When he reached their bonfire, he wisely transformed his legs into a fishtail and sat slanted between Winston and Parker.

Parker nimbly sliced a piece of cooked meat and dipped it in salt before placing it in Bai Qingqing’s bowl. “Eat some. I’ll go home and bring the hotpot over, to cook a bowl of noodles for you.”

As she couldn’t bear to see Parker run about, she feigned nonchalance and said, “No need, I’ll just eat this today. It’s been a long time since I ate meat to my heart’s content.”

Taking her words for real, Parker sliced another large piece of meat for her.

Merfolk was like snake beastmen in that both species were afraid of heat. But in order to practice taking care of a female, Bluepool had developed a good understanding of fire and also liked to eat cooked food. In a skilled manner, he yanked off a chunk of meat.

“Roar~”

The cubs, too, stuck out their claws. Due to their short statures, the instant they stuck out their paws, their fur was burnt by the fire, making them so startled that they started swinging their legs wildly.
