The Fallen And The Realm Of Beasts

****Kazumi and Bai's place****

Trembling in a corner Bai was being pointed by a blade that shimmered in white radiant light, the blade was black with something written in ancient language on the central edge that was immersed in gold, on the pommel of the sword was an ornament that resembled a blue snowflake that followed by a bell...

A work of art to be admired...

"Fe...Female, I'm sorry I didn't mean to scare you, it's me Bai" his voice trembled, he was too immersed in her eyes that no matter how hard he tried he couldn't look away.

And as rule of the wild, looking into an angered beast eye is like provoking it.

Kazumi's eyes shone gold, her eyes looked empty as if not hearing Bai's words, she raised the hand that was gripping the sword and slashed towards Bai, as if by instinct he jumped and changed to his fox form standing guard trying to get the female to react " KAZUMI, it's me Bai" but to his disappointment, his words did not reach her having any other option...

He pounced on her pinning her hands to the ground the impact made Kazumi groan, it was after that all the killing intent disappeared, she opened her eyes and they started turning back to their original color.

Pang!!

The door flew open Li Yong and Qui Tou entered to see Bai on top of the female, Li Yong frowned walking towards Bai he grabbed him by the neck and flung him to the side.

"Brother, I didn't hurt her... ugh" Bai stood from the ground and went towards Li Yong " Brother she woke up with golden eyes, at first I thought she was angry because I liked her cheek, but... no matter how I called her she didn't listen, I had no choice but to pounce on her" He tried to explain himself but the more he talked the more Li Yong frowned.

"ugh," Kazumi who was laying on the ground got up with throbbing pain coming from her head. "Child... are you okay?" She asked about the well-being of Bai. She had lost control to her instinct thinking of the child as a threat, she sighed in her mind 'I guess the memory of that Shadow Guard still has me on edge... to think I almost harmed a child' she felt ashamed of the amount of hostility she used.

She stood left behind her blade, walking slowly towards Bai who still had his ears down showing he was still scared. Stretching her hand towards him patting his head twice, she the hugged him while patting his back

"I'm awake now, I am sorry for scaring you" once these words left her mouth Bai transformed into his human form and hugged Kazumi while sobbing

"I'm sorry I licked you..sob...sob.." Bai continued sobbing for a while.

Kazumi just hugged him until he calmed down, she turned to face Li Yong and Qui Tou " I apologize for the trouble I have caused".

Two hours later ...

"Have you calmed yourself ?" Kazumi looked at Bai who she was currently hugging. She felt apologetic towards him... She scared him, big time. Well, he did lick while sleeping but that kind of response was a little too extreme.

Bai nodded and jumped to the ground " I'm sorry" he bowed his head to show his sincerity.

"Bai, it is alright. I also apologize for scaring you" She ruffled his hair making his face go red.

Li Yong who was observing finally spoke " Female, we brought some fruit and..." without waiting for him to finish his words

"and a rabbit Me and Bai caught, it's really big to see!!!" Qui Tou snatched the rabbit from Li Yong's hand and showed it to Kazumi while puffing his c.h.e.s.t out.

"Thank you, I am quite hungry, would you join me eating alone is somewhat solitary" once she finished speaking the three nodded and started preparing the rabbit.

"ᛟᚺ ᛋᛈᛁᚱᛁᛏᛋ ᛟᚠ ᚠᛚᚨᛗᛖ, ᚷᚱᚨᚾᛏ ᛗᛖ ᚤᛟᚢᚱ ᛈᛟᚹᛖᚱ. ᚠᛚᚨᚱᛖ" Li Yong chanted in a strange language and from his hand came forth a yellow flame, which he threw to the fire pit to make it burn
