Chapter 596 - He’s Back (7) (2/2)

Raising her head, she saw two animal stripes on his face.

Last year when Carl sprinted out of the village maniacally, he only had one animal stripe. Moreover, at that time, he had only become a one-striped beastman for less than two years.

Although Molly was a female, she felt incredulous at his speed of advancing.

Carl’s expression eased, his face full of tenderness. “I’ve been striking out on my own, so, naturally, I advance at a faster speed.”

Looking at her body, delight could be seen in his eyes. “You haven’t become mates with anyone?”

“Mm,” Molly responded. She sized him up in an imperceptible manner. “Let’s sit down and talk.”

Flattered, Carl instantly nodded. “Okay.”

His response made her feel more at ease.

Perhaps due to fear, she developed patience facing Carl and wasn’t as irritable and impatient like before. But Carl had undergone a great transformation as well—he had become more mature and restrained, and more gentle towards her, unlike his old noisy and annoying self.

Carl wouldn’t be like that male beastman abandoned by Becky’s mother, would he?

The duo walked out of the village alongside each other. Alva, who was about to fly out to look for nuts, cooed at the sight of their back views, then vigorously flapped his wings and flew off.

Seeing that they were about to leave the crowd, Molly instantly halted in her footsteps and sat down on the grass.

“Let’s talk here.”

“Okay.” Carl sat down opposite her in a prim and proper posture.

Molly sputtered with laughter. Used to seeing Carl behave in an off-key manner, she found something comical in his serious act.

Eh, if he had behaved in this manner back then, she definitely wouldn’t have canceled their spousal relationship on impulse.

Molly’s brows drooped, and she asked softly, “How’s life outside?”

“Fine,” replied Carl.

“I mean… regarding females. You…” Molly halted in her speech. After you’ve formed a spousal relationship with a female, will you still feel anything towards other females?
