?Lathel didn't know what to say either. Yordle was just the na of a race that had a similar appearance to the creature he was seeing.
However, he only knew that na and race through a PC MMORPG ga he played when he was still living on Earth.
Lathel never thought that there was a similar race in this world.
Cauldron explained: "Yordles are a race that looks smaller than dwarfs; they live in the forest, and they possess a special ability that allows them to possess natural energy and use it easily."
"Each Yordle is like an extrely precious natural energy stone. There are many people who view them as commodities; they are also hunted by magicians and adventurers for their hearts."
"Of course, a Yordle's heart has the sa effect as a high-class elental stone."
Hearing that, Lathel frowned. He felt that the Yordle clan was too pitiful. Although they possess great natural talent, it makes them excellent prey in the eyes of hunters.
He looked towards the Yordle girl and gave her a friendly smile. "Do you want to eat?"
Lathel asked as he held up the grilled at. Seeing these, the Yorble girl opened her mouth, her eyes widened, and she nodded repeatedly.
But then the girl beca cautious; she hid behind a large tree, stuck her head out, and stared at Lathel.
"Lathel, that is a strange creature; we cannot easily trust it." Claire shouted worriedly: "Don't worry, I will destroy it."
Lathel: "…"
He felt that Claire had a tendency to beco violent. He sighed and said: "Okay, Claire, she won't harm us. Sit down, she's just a Yordle."
"Yordle?!" Claire asked puzzledly.
"Uhm! Yordles are…" Lathel began to explain what he knew about Yordles based on what he had just heard from Cauldron.
"Ah! I understand, but... What if she endangers us?" Claire still feels uneasy.
"It's okay, let's observe her for a bit, if anything goes wrong, we can still run away." Lathel said calmly.
Seeing Lathel so calm, Claire finally listened to what he said. But as she sat down, she glanced towards the Yordle with caution.
The Yordle girl saw that they did not do anything to endanger her, so she bravely thanked them and moved towards them.
"Huk!" The Yordle girl suddenly stopped walking when she saw Claire's murderous eyes looking straight at her.
That look seed to say: 'If you dare take one more step, I will tear you into a hundred pieces imdiately.'
Lathel: "…" ( ￢ _ ￢ ;)
"Okay, Claire, stop scaring her." Lathel sighed and said.
He looked towards the Yordle girl, smiled, and asked: "Are you hungry?"
When the Yordle girl saw Lathel, she felt a bit calr.
Just as she was about to step forward, she imdiately stopped and took a step back.
"Uck… uck… uck…"
The sound from the Yordle girl's stomach made Lathel laugh: "Hahaha... okay."
He stood up, prepared a al, and then placed it about three tres from where he sat.
"I'll leave it here; you can eat in peace. Don't worry, I won't harm you."
Having finished speaking, Lathel returned to his original place, sat down, and continued eating. Upon noticing that Claire was still wary, he didn't know how to reassure her.
"Claire, don't worry, she won't do us any harm." Lathel reassured her: "Besides... you don't need to look at her with those murderous eyes, you're scaring her."
"Ah! Sorry… Lathel." Claire was startled, bowed her head, and said.
"No, you don't need to apologise to ."
When the Yordle girl saw the plate of soup and grilled at placed under the tree, she imdiately laid down on the ground, then slowly crawled there.
As she crawled, she looked towards Lathel and Claire. Seeing that they weren't paying attention to her, she crawled even faster.
Very quickly, the Yordle girl reached her destination. She slled the scent of the soup and grilled at and imdiately felt happy.
Then she started eating, her eyes were filled with happiness and surprise, and she thought: 'Awww, this is the first ti I've eaten sothing delicious like this.'
Although the Yordle girl was very small, she had a voracious appetite. In just a minute, she finished eating all the food on her plate. She then looked towards Lathel, her face conveying that she wanted to eat more.
When Lathel felt the girl's stare, he waved his hand and said: "Co here, I'll give you more to eat."
Hearing that, the Yordle girl imdiately took the plates she used to eat and ran towards Lathel.
Claire quickly stood up, but Lathel imdiately put his hand on her shoulder, looked at her, and shook his head.
She gritted her teeth, sat still, and intently watched every move of the Yordle girl. As long as the girl did anything unusual, Claire would imdiately kill her to protect Lathel.
The Yordle girl was also very obedient. She did not sit on the cloth that Lathel placed on the ground; instead, she just sat on the grass and held out the two plates towards him.
Lathel smiled. He took the two plates, then prepared a portion of soup and a portion of grilled at for the girl.
He ladled the soup and asked: "What is your na?"
"Ah! I… I… I…" The Yordle girl stamred: "My na is… Nina."
"Nina… What a lovely na."
Hearing that, Nina bowed her head, her face, and her long, elf-like ears turned red as she asked: "Really?"
"Of course, do you want to eat more than before or less?"
"More… ah no, you… You can give as much as you want."
Lathel glanced at Nina and smiled warmly. Then he placed a full plate of soup and a large plate of at in front of her.
Besides, he also placed a porcelain vase more than 20cm high, along with a wooden box.
"Take these for your friends to enjoy; I think they're hungry too, right?"
"This porcelain jar contains soup. I think it's not enough, but if you want more, just co to ."
"And this box contains grilled at, if you want to eat it better, grill it again. But... rember, grill it just a little bit, just enough for the at to heat up before eating. If you grill it too much, it will beco charred, and the taste will be quite bitter."
Nina raised her head to look at Lathel with an extrely confused face. She stamred: "This... is this for my friends?"
"That's right." Lathel nodded and said.
Suddenly, Nina's eyes beca wet, and then she cried loudly: "Huhuhu...Oah...huhuhu..."
"Heh?!" Lathel was also startled. He didn't think that Nina would suddenly cry: "Are... are you okay?"
"No… I… huhuhu… I'm fine. Just… huhuhu… why are you so nice?"
Lathel: "…"
He felt like this 'good guy' nickna seed to be stuck on his forehead.
Please, this is not kindness, this is just pity.
"Okay, stop crying; you should eat before the food gets cold." Lathel sighed and said.
Nina ate while trying to control her emotions. Claire saw that Nina was no longer a threat, so she freely enjoyed her breakfast.
"Do you and your friends live in this forest?" Lathel asked.
"That's right." Nina nodded and replied: "We can only live inside this forest, we cannot go further."
Lathel looked inside the forest, but there were many trees blocking his view, making it impossible for him to see further.
"Why are you so hungry? Is there nothing to eat in the forest?"
Nina pursed her lips and shook her head: "No, there are a lot of fruits in the forest, however... I... this is the first ti I have eaten delicious food like this."
"Even if I die, I have no regrets."
Lathel: "…"
"Inside that forest there are no animals, and we cannot kill animals for our food."
Nina bowed her head and spoke pitifully.
"Hmm?!" Lathel frowned and asked: "But you just ate at, is it ok for you to eat at?"
"That's right." Nina nodded and replied: "Our race can eat at, but we cannot kill any animals because we worship the goddess of nature."
Hearing that, Lathel nodded. He couldn't help thinking that perhaps the life of the Yordle clan was not complete.
He didn't continue asking questions, after all, he and Nina had just t, and he didn't want her to be wary of him.
Nina quickly finished eating. She then took the wooden box containing the at and the porcelain vase containing the soup and left.
Before leaving, she thanked him many tis, she even looked at him pitifully and asked: "Lathel... can I continue eating the food you cooked?"
"Of course, but I'll only be in this forest for 7 days. Maybe I'll co back to this forest, hopefully we'll et again." Lathel said while smiling.
"Uhm! With these words from you, I feel very reassured. Thank you, Lathel, you are the best human being I have ever known." Nina also spoke happily.
"Hahaha… there are many people in this world who are much better than ." Lathel shook his head in response.
"No! I believe you are the best. Thank you, Lathel."
After she finished speaking, Nina bowed to him and quickly disappeared into the forest.
Watching Nina disappear, Claire glanced at Lathel and smiled.
"Hm?! What's so funny? Lathel asked confusedly.
"No, I am laughing because everyone knows that you are a good person."
He sighed and said: "I'm just being a little kind. I'm not a good person, I'm not a hero, don't think too much."
"I am still afraid of death, selfish, greedy, and, moreover, I really like beautiful won. It's very dangerous for you to be by my side. One day, if I can't control myself, I'll do terrible things."
Claire was startled when she heard that. She widened her eyes and looked at Lathel.
Lathel smirked: 'Hehehe... are you scared? If you're scared, stay away from , otherwise, hehehe...'
Claire seed frozen. She just stared at him and thought: 'He... he wants to do those things to ?'
'Could it be… Awww! He really likes , he's not afraid of my lowly servant status.'
'Lathel, you are indeed very good. But... Lathel is having to restrain himself?'
'Should I help him?'
'If I say it, will he think I'm a bad girl?'
'But... I really want to help him.'
Lathel felt that Claire was not scared; rather, she seed very excited.
She looked like a hungry wolf looking at a rabbit.
Lathel took a step back, keeping a distance from Claire: "Oy! You...don't co near ."
