Chapter 6 (2/2)
Luke heaved a deep sigh when he looked at Kurotan, who had been following along like a duckling without saying a single word
“damn, cursed fate Why do the heavens test me so…?”
It was only when they had embarked on their way and when no other people were in vicinity that Kurotan spoke
“Keung I thank you for listening to et the favor”
Luke frowned slightly
“The keung keung noises are really botherso sound seeed as well?”
“I don’t know Keung”
Luke looked seriously at Kurotan
“All right, Kurotan Just as you have deeive you my trust this once But remember…”
“What?”
“You are no longer an Orc, but a human Your soul may be that of an Orc’s, but from now on you must think and act as a human”
“I already know That was the plan”
“Good To become human, you must listen to my every command And we need to fix the way you talk”
“Keung The way I talk?”
“Yes”
Luke’s face turned even stricter as he continued to glare at Kurotan”
“From now on, you are my subordinate and servant”
“Se-Servant?”
“A master-servant relationshi+p makes the s to you now, and my status”
Unexpectedly, Kurotan tried to deny it fiercely
“I cannot accept it How can an honorable warrior become a servant?”
“You are no longer the Great Warrior of Orcs, but a retired aret used to your new name”
“My e it”
“It is a must for you to adjust to the human world!”
“Still, sos are just impossible”
Luke sighed in frustration
“You’re stubborn as an Ogre”
Luke did not knohere to start with the Orc wearing a human mask
‘I think I may have bitten a bit more than I can chew’
Luke regretted having ain the water had already been spilled
Luke took Kurotan towards the rear of the headquarters They took a carriage carrying wounded soldiers and reached Lactel City, which also served as a supply base, in three hours
They were unable to converse at all due to the presence of soldiers that had been wounded in the final assault Of course, theof the wounded
The e did not need any identification at the city wall Luke and Kurotan were able to enter the city without problee at the central square
“Thanks for the ride”
Luke turned around once out the carriage He looked back at Kurotan, and froith curiosity
“Are you all right?”
Kurotan had co only his eyes back and forth
“Do you feel sick froe ride?”
“Hu-Humans…”
“What about humans?”
“There are t-too many humans”
Luke smiled at Kurotan’s words Lactel City was a decently developed city, and the central square had a lot of hue for Kurotan, a former Orc, to feel so out of place and amazed
‘I suppose Orcs don’t get to see the boo civilian life of humans’
Luke smirked and pulled on Kurotan’s arm
“Not one word, Kurotan Just follow me”
It was in no way easy to move around with an Orc in the form of a human
Luke entered a restaurant in order to appease their hunger Kurotan entered somewhat normally, thanks to Luke’s advice
However, a problem occurred when their ordered dish arrived
Kurotan took one look at the bread that Luke had ordered and frowned fiercly
“Keung We do not eat these things”
“Then what do you eat”
“Meat, intestines, fat! Givelike that!”
“That hen you were an Orc, and since you’re no longer an Orc…”
“I still refuse to eat weird things like this”
Kurotan, in a tantruround, and Luke had no choice but to order a meat stew
“Here’s your dish”
When the ht The next moment, the eyes of the people all came to rest on one spot
“Oh ry must he have been…”
“How long has he been starving?”
The pieces of rubby hands of Kurotan and being devoured without being chewed more than once or twice
Kurotan proceeded to slaan to drink the rest of the soup with his tongue, like a dog He was doing so without a care in the world, not caring whether or not the people stared
Luke grabbed the back of his neck in an atte headache
“What should I do with you?”
Oblivious to Luke clicking his tongue, Kurotan finished the re meat stew in the blink of an eye
“That wasn’t enough Kurotan wants to eat more”
“You bastard, you kno much that was? It’s at least three times more expensive than bread!”
“Kurotan does not know of those things”
Luke, looking as if he was about to cry, shoved the rest of the bread he’d been eating into his mouth
“Let’s talk later”
“But I’ry”
Luke glanced to the side, and Kurotan’s face stiffened when he followed Luke’s gaze Everyone in the restaurant was staring at him
“Wh-Why are they looking at me? Do you think they’ve found out about my identity?”
Luke quickly sed the last of his bread and stood up
“Shut your mouth and just follow me outside”
Luke hurriedly paid for their meal and took Kurotan outside
