In the end, the man named Bao Ji was invited to stay in the wooden house. However, the older man seemed to have fallen asleep on this cold night.
"What are you going to do with him, Arthur?" Anya asked.
That night, we sat together overlooking the burning campfire. We felt pretty warm, even though it was cold in the mountains.
"We'll tell him to go, probably to Northrest, which is safest," I replied curtly.
"Why don't we send him back to Izunaya?"
"Then let him be caught, forced into labor, or even killed? I can't do it," I explained, rejecting Anya's suggestion.
"Although I don't want to meddle in their business, this is about humanity. Northrest is a safe place for him," I continued.
My hands immediately increased the amount of wood on the bonfire, making it burn for quite a while. Next, the woman in front of me began to cover her body with blanket, holding a wooden cup with both hands.
