"We haven't contacted any other races, forget about other races we haven't even contacted other human tribes except them," Nikol was conflicted hearing Usha's words as she pointed at Eva.
"What about you?" Looking at Eva, he questioned expecting sothing positive but soon his expectations broke upon hearing her answer.
"Sa with , I never t any races except dark elves,"
Eva and Usha both were looking at each other expecting them to tell sothing but none of them had anything to say.
"I heard beastkin are in the central region so even if we want to ask for help it will be useless as they are too far," Usha said after a pause like she did sothing illegal.
Nikol looked at her with a confused look without knowing how she knew about that if she had never t them.
"How do you know that if you never t them?" Hearing Nikol's question everyone looked at her expecting answers from her.
"I heard it from my mother, these are information passed out by one chief to another chief when they retire from their position," Usha quickly looked at Alva before continuing her speech.
"Apparently one of our ancestors had ties with them and I heard it didn't go well, I'm not allowed to tell about this to anyone but I have no choice now," Her words caught Eva's attention as she felt embarrassed about not having sothing valuable to tell others.
"Tsk~ my damn ancestors," She thought looking at Usha with jealousy.
Arti was still listening to everything pretending to understand most of them but she had no idea what they were talking about. Alva and Emily weren't even trying to talk as they didn't know what they were talking about.
*Sigh
"What do we do then? Are we going to hide forever? I don't want my blood to face these vile dark elves and die fighting them,"
Nikol was worried about the future. Even though his dream of finding his sister remained in his mind at this point he didn't want to abandon anyone in this village as he already felt attached to them.
"Chief," While everyone was looking at Nikol without even speaking a single word, all of them heard the voice of a girl speaking timidly.
Nikol and everyone else looked at the owner of the voice surprised since it was a familiar voice to most of them.
"Nym, what are you doing here? I thought you were still sleeping," Nodding at Usha's words, she quickly ca forward looking at everything with a confused look.
Even Nym wasn't immune to the appearance of the fairy as she looked down with an awkward look making sure not to disrespect her.
Nikol notice her behaviour and wondered how she knew about it,
"I'm sorry chief, I heard what you were talking about so I couldn't resist the urge to talk with Nikol," Her words caught everyone by surprise.
"You!" Usha got mad at her since they were talking about sothing confidential.
"Looks like guards won't have it easy this ti," Nikol thought while looking at Nym who was trembling in fear.
She obviously knew going to et them was a bad idea but she wanted to et Nikol as soon as possible.
"Usha, wait look like she has sothing to say, I know spying is bad but let's listen to her first," Nym nodded her head furiously hearing his words.
"What do you have to say, Nym," Seeing her timid face Nikol wanted to help her even though she wasn't completely innocent.
"I heard about our goddess and about this fairy," She pointed at Arti.
"I was just interested to know about it so I didn't an any harm by peeking into your conversation but-" She paused for a minute before looking at Usha with a aningful look.
"About other races, I actually t so people from the elf race when I was searching for so rare plants, I didn't want to reveal it at that ti since entering that part of the forest is banned by our chief," Hearing her words, Usha felt conflicted.
"You went that far? And t elves? When did that happen?" Interested in her matter, Usha quickly questioned her without even giving her space to breathe between her words.
"10 days before we got attacked in the forest," Nym answered Usha's question honestly since she was going to be punished anyway.
"You really lied to all of us, didn't you?" Alva wasn't in her greatest mood hearing it as she didn't even know about it despite being her friend.
"I didn't do it purposely, I had no other choice, there was no dicine to cure my mother so I was desperate," Her tone beca rather grim and dark rembering her mother who was at the doors of the death.
"Nym," Seeing her break down like this, Usha felt pain in her heart. Until now she had a tough front but looking at her now it was nowhere to be seen.
Nikol couldn't help but feel sad, he knew the feeling of missing soone close so he quickly hugged Nym ignoring her snot and tears.
"Don't cry, we are here for you, I don't bla you for what you did and the most important thing is you're safe now, so don't cry," She quickly wiped her tears without being a crybaby.
Others sympathised with her situation as they kept looking at her hugging Nikol tightly without any anger or jealousy.
"Are you okay now?" Calming down her with his soothing touch, Nikol asked without showing his sadness.
"Yes, I'm sorry for this, let's talk about that matter," Looking at everyone with an apologising look she quickly took a seat asking Nikol to go back.
Everyone was curious to know about Elves since it is such an interesting topic for them.
"So you t elves in the forest? How did they react? Did they try to attack you?" Usha questioned her with the purpose of collecting information.
"No, I t so elf kids, they were playing when I was searching for so valuable herb," She thought for a minute before answering.
"I didnt know they were elves at first but after seeing their ears, I shouted but they quickly closed my mouth like they were trying to hide from soone," Her story caught everyone's attention.
"Were they trying to attack you?" She laughed at Alva's question while answering her.
"No, they were just hiding from their mother playing hide and seek, so they quickly covered my mouth to stop from shouting,"
"So they aren't aggressive toward humans?"
"I honestly don't know about adults but kids were treating normally and we talked for a few minutes and they promised to not tell anyone about ," She finished her words with nostalgia from rembering it.
"Is it really worth risking ourselves to et them? They might even try to kill us." Eva had a point in her words as they didnt know anything other than elf kids were peaceful.
"Why don't we et them first? I'm pretty sure they must be having the sa problem as you guys so if I talk with them, they might even respond positively," Nikol decided to go and et elves as it was stupid to let go of this opportunity.
"Nikol you can't deal with any more girls, you're already overworking your body," Concerned about Nikol's health, Alva pointed it out.
"I'm ok, recently I started to feel a little stronger, I will be ok don't worry, Alva," Convincing her, Nikol looked at Usha to ask permission.
"No, you're not going," Even before Nikol could question her, she disagreed with him showing how well she understood Nikol.
"I didn't even ask the question yet," He just gave a wry smile listening to her.
"You want to go and et elves, I won't allow it you're our goddess son and our hope, I cannot put your life in danger," To her sentint, Eva also agreed without showing any reaction. She hated agreeing with Usha but she had no choice this ti.
"If I don't go then who's going to convince them? Even if they are hostile toward humans I think they will understand us if I was there," Nikol's words made sense to everyone in the room.
"Ugh~" Usha felt conflicted unable to decide what to do until Lydia gave her opinion.
"I can go with him, I promise to protect him even if it cost my life since he's our saviour," Even though she acted tough deep down, Lydia was worried about him going alone.
" too, I can protect him, "Alva jumped in and took the chance as soon as she knew where this is going.
Emily and Nym both raised their hand causing Usha to scratch her forehead.
"Nym, you're not going, you will be a liability for them just tell them about the location," As hesitant as she was missing a chance like this didn't sit right with her.
"Eva and I can control this city until you co back, but if it is dangerous you should co back without encountering them," Under tons of rules Usha and Eva permitted him to visit the forest.
"Yes!" He was excited for two reasons about this new journey. eting elves a fantasy race straight from RPG gas felt too surreal for him and he wanted to go out of this city to visit a new place.
Having sex with girls was fun for him but when that's all he did for the past few months he felt the need to change his life a little bit.
Other girls were excited about it for a different reason, as they get to go out with Nikol. Lydia's whole purpose was protecting him unlike the other two as she took it as an official job.
"Do I have to co with you?" After they heard a little soft voice only they realised, they totally forgot about the fairy.
"Of course, you need my presence to stay here right?" She scratched her head listening to him.
"But it sounds boring, I would rather stay in this town feeding on so excess mana-" She couldn't finish her words as Nikol grabbed her.
"Co here you lazy fairy, we are going," Just like that eting ca to end with Arti's annoying blabbering.
