Early the next morning, Lin Fan headed off to the Hunters Organization with Angela and Yuki.

He had already contacted old man Qiao last night, so everything was set up for them even if old man Qiao was doubtful about why they needed to use the transport gates.

Still, all they had to do was go to the Hunters Organization branch and show them Lin Fan’s Hunter License. The people there had already been instructed on how to take care of them.

As soon as they did arrive and Lin Fan showed his Hunter License, they were immediately led to the basement where the teleport gates were by the receptionist.

They were led to a single gate which was also the largest gate here.

This was a teleport gate to the Hunters Organization’s headquarters.

Because there wasn’t a gate that would directly link the branch in Harmony City to the branch of the city where the exam was being held, they had to head to the headquarters first where there was a teleport gate to the city of the exam.

As soon as they stepped through, there was someone who was waiting for them on the other side.

After checking Lin Fan’s Hunter License, that person led them to another gate which was smaller this time. This was the gate that would lead to the city the exam was being held in.

By the time that they arrived, only ten minutes had passed since everything had been taken care of for them. They were quickly led through each gate, so the only travel time was the amount of time that it took for them to move between gates.

After they arrived in this city named Frost City, there was even a member of the Hunters Organization waiting for them.

It was a young girl who was in her early teens who immediately bowed to Lin Fan when she met him.

Lin Fan revealed an awkward smile when he saw this, but he also quickly said, “There’s no need for this at all.”

The girl jumped a bit when she heard this which caused two fluffy ears to appear out of her head.

Lin Fan was surprised when he saw this, but then he couldn’t help revealing a smile as he saw the blush that appeared on the little girl’s face.

Angela and Yuki both had looks on their faces like they were looking at something precious. The way their hands were raised made it seem like they wanted to hug and pat this girl, but Lin Fan shook his head at them to stop them.

The little girl then raised her head and said, “I’m here to guide you on behalf of the branch president. If you need anything, please just tell me.”

Lin Fan nodded before saying, “Then can you take us to the Alchemy King Hall?”

The little girl gave a nod before saying, “Then if you will follow me.” Then she immediately started leading the way.

However, before she could even take two steps, Lin Fan suddenly said, “Wait, you haven’t told us your name yet.”

The little girl jolted when she heard this, but then she turned and said while bowing her head, “You can just call me whatever you want. Someone as lowly as me doesn’t deserve to be addressed by name.”

Lin Fan knitted his brows when he heard this, but the more important thing was the way that Angela and Yuki were glaring at him. It was clear that they were blaming him for bullying this girl because that was what it looked like.

Lin Fan looked at them with a bitter smile to show that he didn’t know what was happening either before turning back to the girl. He came forward and lifted her head up before saying while looking into her eyes, “I want to call you by your name, so will you tell me your name?”

The little girl jolted once again, but then she said in a low and shy voice, “Xiao Tu.”

Lin Fan gave a nod before saying, “Then Xiao Tu, my name is Lin Fan and those two beautiful big sisters are Angela and Yuki. You can just call us by our names or you can call us big brother and big sister. So can you lead the way for us, Xiao Tu?”

Lin Fan even emphasized her name when he said this.

There was a faint sparkle that appeared in Xiao Tu’s eyes when she heard this, but then she gave a quick nod and said, “Yes, young master Lin.”

Lin Fan was about to say something, but she had already run off and it was too late to stop her, so their only choice was to follow her.

Xiao Tu ran at first, but then she realized her mistake and slowed down to look for Lin Fan. Seeing that they were following her at a normal pace, she let out a sigh of relief before slowly leading the way.

However, she never had any intentions of turning back and talking to them it seemed.

Lin Fan knitted his brows when he saw this.

Based on the fluffy ears that had popped out when she had been startled, it was clear that she was a demihuman, a product of a human mixed with a beast…

Then based on the way that everyone looked at her as they went past, he could tell that there was the same discrimination against demihumans just like on the Blue Star Planet.

But that didn’t make sense.

If there was this discrimination, why would they have sent Xiao Tu to guide them?

Could it be that there was someone in this Hunters Organization branch that was plotting against them?

No, that wouldn’t be possible since old man Qiao had made the arrangements. If they dared to go against old man Qiao’s orders like this, they wouldn’t have a future in the Hunters Organization.𝓞𝗏𝓵𝐞xt.𝒸𝐎𝓂

No one would be crazy enough to do something like this.

So what was it?

Lin Fan couldn’t understand this, but he didn’t let that bother him too much since there was still something else that he needed to do. For now, it seemed like nothing bad would come from this, so he didn’t mind it since he could get this cute little bunny girl guiding him.

Unlike the rest of the people of this world, he didn’t have any prejudice against demihumans because he was someone who came from earth.

In fact, he even thought that kemonomimis were the best!

If he had a chance, he would definitely try to get a chance to touch Xiao Tu’s ears. They really looked fluffy.

He could see that it was the same with Angela and Yuki based on the way that they looked at Xiao Tu.

It seemed like all girls liked cute things and Xiao Tu really was a cute little girl.

Xiao Tu quickly led the way to the Alchemy King Hall.

As they made their way along the streets of Frost City, they were met with many bad gazes.

These gazes weren’t directed at them, but rather Xiao Tu who was walking in front of them with her head down. Even though her ears and tail were hidden, it was clear that everyone knew who she was with the way that they were glaring at her.

Lin Fan listened closely and he could even hear some of the whispers around him.

“It’s that dirty demihuman girl. Why can’t she just leave already?”

“I know! It’d be so much better if she would just die in a ditch already!”

“Shh, keep your voice down. Those people behind her should most likely be Hunters based on the way she’s acting around them. It’s fine if we insult her, but if we ruin the mood of those hunters.”

“That’s right. You already know how the president of the Hunters Organization treats her. Keep your voice down.”

Lin Fan revealed an intrigued look when he heard this.

It seemed like there was an interesting backstory behind this.

As they walked along, there were several people that had wanted to do something to Xiao Tu, but they were immediately scared off by the cold gazes from Angela and Yuki.

So their trip to the Alchemy King Hall was rather uneventful other than the whispers around them.

When they arrived, Xiao Tu finally stopped and turned around to say, “This is the Alchemy King Hall.” Then she gave a bow and was about to move to the side as she said, “I’ll wait for you outside.”

But before she could leave, Lin Fan had already grabbed her by the hand and pulled her over.

Xiao Tu’s heart jumped to her throat as she quickly lowered her head and put her hands over them to protect herself.

Lin Fan deeply knitted his brows when he saw this.

It seemed like her life here wasn’t good…

Lin Fan took a deep breath to calm his feelings before saying in a gentle voice, “Stop that, I don’t want to hurt you.”

Xiao Tu’s body trembled before she slowly lowered her hands and looked up at Lin Fan.

Seeing this, Lin Fan continued, “I want you to come in with us as a guide. This is our first time here, so I want you to show us the way.”

Xiao Tu was surprised by this, but she quickly shook her head and said, “No, I…”

Before she could finish, Lin Fan already lifted her up and brought her over to Angela before placing her in her hands.

Angela looked at Lin Fan with a look that said “good job” while Yuki looked at her with an envious look.

Lin Fan smiled as he said to Xiao Tu, “This should make it easier for you to lead the way.”

Then without giving her a chance to reject him, he turned and started walking into the Alchemy King Hall branch.
