Volume 3 Chapter 157 - Choose for yourselves (1/2)

As night gradually fell, this courtyard fell into silence.

Hearing the sounds of the beastmen girls laughing and playing gradually fade, Xu Yi had a flash of disappointment on his face.

He had been waiting for two hours, but not a single beastmen girl had come looking for him.

Of course, he wasn’t waiting for the beastmen girls to come offer themselves, rather he wanted to see if there was some consciousness among the beastmen girls.

Two hours ago, Xu Yi had announced to the beastmen girls that he would be returning to Banta City tomorrow and if there were any girls that wanted to come with him, they could go together.

He had also said that after returning to Banta City, he would discuss the future plans of the New Moon Troupe. If any girls wanted to stay with the New Moon Troupe, of course they could stay. If they didn’t want to stay and wanted to find another path, he would also welcome it and do his best to plan this for them.

In order to let these beastmen girls understand his meaning, Xu Yi had clearly told them that he wanted the New Moon Troupe to be a method for beastmen to demonstrate themselves to the humans of the Lampuri Kingdom, changing their image in the minds of humans. He didn’t want it to be a simple springboard to help them live a better life in the human world.

“To put it simple, I don’t want you to become the toys of human nobles or merchants.” In the end, Xu Yi even threw down these direct words.

However, after saying all of this, Xu Yi patiently waited in the room Hannas prepared for him, but there wasn’t a single beastmen girl who came looking for him.

Xu Yi was naturally very disappointed.

But thinking about it, he felt that his request for the beastmen girls was too high.

For these beastmen girls, because they lived the rough life on the Black Rice Wasteland, now that they had arrived in Anvilmar City and experienced the better lives of humans, being seduced by this was something that was natural. Xu Yi shouldn’t force his request on them, this wasn’t reasonable.

“Perhaps I should have been more cruel?” Xu Yi looked at the final Magic Lamp dim where the beastmen girls were resting and a bit of hesitation appeared in his heart.

Since this New Moon Troupe contained his expectations, when the New Moon Troupe went in a direction that went against his expectations, he should forcefully turn them back.

If he and Still were to control these beastmen girls, it would have been easy.

But Xu Yi thought of the happy smiles of these beastmen girls when they talked about living in Anvilmar City and Xu Yi felt a bit unable to make this decision.

“Has there never been a human who considered this much for beastmen before? Since this is the path they’ve chosen, then just let them be…..”

Xu Yi gave a bitter laugh and slowly shook his head. He stood up and prepared to go to sleep.

When he opened the door, he saw a white figure appear on the path in front of the door.

Looking at Avril walking over, Xu Yi couldn’t help revealing a smile.

“What? Avril, you’re not asleep yet?”

Avril shook her head and her furry ears trembled in the night wind. It gave her a naughty look and adding in her fine features, it was no wonder all those nobles and merchants chased after her.

“Sir chairman, can I disturb you for a bit?”

“Come in.”

When they entered the room, Avril took the initiative to pour Xu Yi a cup of tea before respectfully standing in front of Xu Yi. Only when Xu Yi indicated for her to sit down did she sit down.

“If you have something you want to say, just say it.” Xu Yi had the same gentle tone and expression as he spoke.

Avril gritted her teeth and looked a bit hesitant. After a while, it was like she made her decision and gave a strong nod.

“Sir chairman, actually……Actually, we understand what you said just now and everyone is very grateful towards you because we know that based on the way you’ve treated us, you’re a rare human who treats us equally. As for those nobles and merchants who are chasing us, they are just treating us as toys.”

Xu Yi looked at Avril in surprise for a bit, thinking that these beastmen girls really did have a brain.
