Chapter 27
Tarhan, who checked out Kiyan, was silent for a second. After enthusiastic about it, he added whereas suppressing his anger.
“I believed Nervana Forest was a completely unbiased tribe that didn’t care about modifications within the environment. I don’t know what the change of coronary heart is, however it appears to be like like we’re holding the identical arrow any longer, so please take excellent care of me.”
Along with his difficult phrases, Kiyan snorted and seemed in Avisak’s path.
“I’d like to if we might. After the whereabouts of the ‘daughter of the forest’ turned unknown many years in the past, the scenario in Nervana Forest hasn’t been that good.”
After listening quietly, Avisak opened her mouth with a significant smile.
“The daughter of the forest means a noble bloodline who is claimed to have inherited the lineage of the goddess who presides over Nervana forest.”
“Evidently Perugia did a variety of analysis beforehand.”
“Daughter of the forest…?”
Listening to their dialog, Tarhan raised one eyebrow and requested.
Then Avisak answered.
“Daughter of the forest refers back to the clan that Nervana Forest has protected for generations. It’s type of just like the bloodline of the Nervana forest royal household. It’s the pleasure of Nervana Forest that has endured for hundreds of years in opposition to the skeleton spider, a cataclysmic monster that has taken root and lives in Nervana Forest.”
Kiyan, who had been listening to this, crossed her arms and spat out bloodily. It sounded uncomfortable as if she had given pointless explanations.
“It’s all a factor of the previous now. The royal lineage, which is claimed to have the flexibility to deal with the skeleton spiders, has lengthy since been diluted and disappeared. Moreover.”
Kiyan solid her stare upon Tarhan’s aspect and spoke once more. Quickly, her gaze turned to Enya, who was standing behind Tarhan.
“After shedding the bloodline of the final daughter of the forest many years in the past, Nervana Forest has additionally been regressing. We are able to’t management the rampaging skeleton spiders, so our livelihoods are getting smaller and smaller, and our wanderings searching for water and meals proceed…”
At the moment, a girl who had been silent behind Kiyan, who seemed similar to her, took a step ahead and spoke. She, too, like Kiyan, had her light-colored hair lower brief, not reaching her shoulders.
“I’m Yaru, Kiyan’s nephew.”
Introducing herself, Yaru spoke in a voice similar to Kiyan’s.
“Nervana forest can also be in a nook, even when it isn’t for the struggle proper now. We didn’t wish to present up like this both, however frankly, we’re each on the crossroads of life and dying.”
Aquilea’s Servia, who had been silently listening to the phrases, briefly summarized the scenario with a quiet voice.
“…It’s an issue that cataclysmic monsters assault them in all places they go. Effectively, we must be glad that the forces to oppose Argon are rising.”
Tarhan additionally sighed briefly whereas watching the Nervana Forest group.
“I’ll give you a spot to sleep and one thing to eat to compensate you to your exhausting work absolutely. I hope you eliminate your journey fatigue.”
“Thanks, however we have now our personal lifestyle. Sharing a few of your searching grounds is sufficient.”
Kiyan and Tarhan’s eyes locked within the air for a second.
“We’re unbiased, so we actually gained’t trouble you.”
Upon listening to that, Tarhan nodded his head in satisfaction.
Then, as if he had nothing extra to say, he watched as Kiyan led the forces of Nervana Forest again. After that, Enya was led again to the village entrance by Tarhan, however she inadvertently checked out their backs.
The journey of the Nervana Forest group began from that day.
As promised, they contributed to the Nice Plains Alliance whereas offering their very own meals and shelter. Sometimes, they might come all the way down to Aquilea’s village to get issues they wanted, however even then, they paid a good value for the issues they wanted and obtained them in a short while, and went again.
“As I’ve heard, are they actually proud or have a excessive nostril…”
Ihita muttered with pleasure concerning the folks of Nervana Forest.
“The Nervana Forest is claimed to have intact traces of the instances when people and monsters coexisted, and it’s nearly the one tribe that has a really particular historical life-style. I acknowledge their idiosyncrasies.”
Outdated Woman Piache chewed a roll of tobacco leaves and replied indifferently.
“So that they will need to have crawled out on their very own toes as a result of they had been in peril of extinction.”
Ihita sneered and replied.
Wild honey that had been thickened by her hand was being poured right into a jar. It was contemporary honey that had simply been collected that morning.
Outdated Woman Piache, who had given up on scolding Ihita, who saved licking her fingers by way of her work and buzzing, ultimately left Enya and Ihita the job of placing the honey into the jar.
“Are you a useless soul that couldn’t eat honey? Ihita. There might be extra honey in your tongue than honey in jars.”
“Who cares, Outdated Woman? We’re going to take a minimum of one of many jars anyway, proper? It’s a must to pay for our exhausting work.”
Whereas Piache and Ihita had been arguing, as standard, Enya additionally paid the worth for her exhausting work.
Sometimes, the bees that accompanied the hive climbed up on the palms of the one who had ruined their dwelling and buzzed menacingly. Enya stirred the bees together with her palms and commenced diligently squeezing the hives into the jar.
Out of the blue, a person’s voice that she had by no means heard earlier than reached her ears.
“Hello. Honey.”
The voice was playful. Enya turned her head to the voice. Positive sufficient, on the entrance to Piache’s natural workshop, two males and a girl she hadn’t seen earlier than had been leaning over and watching them.
Judging by the colour of their hair, which was whiter than that of the Aquileas and fewer pigmented, they instantly acknowledged that they had been from the Nervana Forest.
“I heard that you could get honey right here.”
She raised an eyebrow as the person, whom Enya known as ‘honey’ at first sight, glanced again at them together with her hand within the jar.
“Sure, however it’s true. As Kiyan stated, they actually look alike.”
Piache and Ihita additionally stopped what they had been doing and seemed on the Nervanas, who instantly went to their workshop.
They started to converse in phrases that solely they may perceive. It gave the impression to be an unbiased dialect of the Nervana Forest. Quickly, the one girl amongst them spoke within the frequent language of the Nice Plains, with which she was very proficient in.
“I’m right here to get some honey. Can I simply get one?”
Enya acknowledged her at a look. She was Yaru, a girl with brief hair that didn’t even attain her shoulders, who launched herself as Kiyan, the chieftain of the Nervana Forest’s nephew.
“Ah, the honey continues to be within the means of refining so it would take a while.”
Outdated Woman Piache stepped in entrance of them, wiping her palms.
“It doesn’t matter. I’ll pay for it now.”
Then, Yaru pointed to the jar of honey Enya was engaged on and stated straight away.
“I believe one jar will do. When do you assume will probably be completed?”
“One, one jar…?”
Ihita widened her eyes in amazement and murmured. In the meantime, Yaru’s gaze was nonetheless mounted on Enya.
“I believe will probably be completed by tomorrow morning, so please come again then. Please pay the worth then.”
Outdated Woman Piache answered merely and clearly.
Even after listening to that, the Nervana Forest folks didn’t consider leaving the place.
Enya continued to wander across the entrance as she checked out them curiously as they watched the within of the workshop. To be exact, they had been discussing one thing in an incomprehensible language amongst themselves, not at Piace or Piache, however at themselves.
Enya, who was accustomed to listening to whispers in entrance of her and receiving such specific gazes, was displeased with them although she continued to work together with her gaze on the jar in silence.
Nonetheless, the peace within the office was quickly disrupted by the younger man who spoke to her first.
“So, are you Enya?”
He additionally spoke the frequent language of the Nice Plains with ease.
The big-built man with a gorgeous cheerful expression had a powerful coiffure with lengthy black hair pulled again into one ponytail.
His fairer pores and skin than the folks of Aquilea was white and clear as if he had by no means been uncovered to the solar in his life. The muscle mass that stuffed the higher physique, the bumpy stomach, and the huge shoulders that had been uncovered otherwise seemed as intimidating as Aquilea’s chief hunter.
“You don’t have to take a look at me with these wild cat eyes. I by no means got here right here to threaten you.”
As she glanced up on the man with out answering and as a substitute glared with a suspicious look, one other man behind him opened his mouth in a quiet voice.
It was a person with lengthy hair hanging behind his shoulders, who had been standing closely behind Yaru as if escorting her. He, too, was white, however he had the looks of being as robust and robust as the soldiers of Aquilea that Enya had seen.
In addition to the 2 males, the girl, Yaru, was additionally muscular and had completely different markings on her forearms. Every signal appeared to have a which means.
“I’m Nihitan. I’m the chieftain of the Lehijin horde, lately allied with Kiyan’s tribe. For now, simply take into account me as one of many members of Nervana Forest.”
Saying so, he reached out one hand to Enya and requested for a handshake in a well mannered and heavy tone. It was the primary time she had ever had somebody ask her to shake palms.
Due to that, she was so flustered that she held out her palms with out even considering of wiping them. Even so, the person held Enya’s hand evenly and shook it with the identical well mannered angle as the primary time.
When the handshake was over, the considerably flirtatious-looking man, who had first known as her honey, modified his facial features abruptly after which got here ahead with a wheeze.
“What is that this Nihitan? What a participant? I wish to shake her hand, too.”
Quickly, he actually got here in entrance of her and held out his hand in the identical approach, together with his eyes shining as if he had discovered a uncommon wild animal. Together with her eyes huge open, Enya unwittingly reached out her hand as earlier than.
In contrast to the person named Nihitan, who merely shook palms, this comparatively younger man grabbed her hand and didn’t let go.
