“How could a half-beast forget how to return to its true form, you fool?”
Literally, Dohwi had never returned to his original form during the past few decades.
Sohwa, playing in the stream of water while in her agile fox form, looked pitifully at Dohwi who was sitting far away on a rock.
“Come on in and wash up. Aren’t you feeling hot in this late summer heat?”
“I’m fine, Sohwa.”
Dohwi watched her cute little fox-girl splash around in the water with a contented smile.
“Don’t worry about me. Just have fun. But don’t go too deep.”
“....”
Sohwa often felt that the way he looked at her was more like an adult watching a child, but she couldn’t exactly pinpoint why it bothered her.
‘Hmph, as if he knows how old I am.’
Feeling oddly annoyed, she made a show by splashing into the deepest part of the water.
Dohwi immediately stood up and waded over with his long, strong pair of legs to pull her out.
“I told you not to go too deep.”
The water barely reached his thighs.
