Chapter 14 Finding a Village (1/2)
Theo: ”Well... even if you hadn't attacked me, you would still have died! But at least I would give you a less painful death.” Theo thought, and then he used <Devour>.
[Obtained 1,104 System Points]
Theo: ”Hahaha! He gave me a fair amount of [System Points]” Theo murmured and started laughing loudly happily.
Yuki watched as Theo fought, for Theo looked very cool fighting the (Lord Goblin)... however she wanted somehow to have helped Theo fight, but she knew that with her current power, she would get in the way, so she made a decision to devote more time to cultivate, so she could help Theo in the future.
Theo thought it was a pity that the first one he thought he could speak to was a (Lord Goblin), but it couldn't be helped, so the moment when Yuki could also talk, he can talk to her.
--------------------
After fighting the (Lord Goblin), Theo and Yuki walked back into the forest. This time, no being of the Student Kingdom or above appeared. So they managed to get far into the forest without risk of life.
Theo: ”A [Village]? Are there humans living in the forest?” Not far from where they were, Theo and Yuki spotted a (Village).
Theo: ”Yuki, let's take a closer look, but be careful... if things get ugly, we'll run away!” Theo said, looking at her seriously.
Seeing Yuki nodding, Theo and Yuki headed toward the [Village].
Both Theo's vision and hearing improved a lot after he advanced to the [Student Kingdom]. So when they got closer to the [Village], Theo was able to see the residents.
Theo: ”AH?! An (Animal) [Village]?” At the moment, Theo was able to see the [Village]'s residents. He realized that they were all (Animals), but not all were of the same species. What he saw was more than 900 (Animals) of different species, living together.
”Should I go there? What if they are not friendly? I don't have the confidence to fight so many...” Theo murmured hesitantly.
Theo knew that with his current skills, he had a chance to go there and back, but was worried about Yuki.
Theo turned to Yuki and said, ”Yuki, I'm going there, you need to stay here!”
Hearing what Theo said, Yuki's tail dropped, she looked sad, for she knew that if she went along she would only disturb him. Yuki then nodded in response.
”Good girl! Don't worry, if I have to, I'll run away, and you know how fast I am!” Theo comforted her.
Hearing what Theo said, Yuki changed her sad expression and rubbed her face on Theo's chest, before he went.
After saying goodbye to Yuki, Theo started to head towards the [Village].
----------
Getting close to the [Village], Theo saw many buildings made out of wood, only a few were made out of stones, but they were incredibly well built: ”How did they manage to make these houses?” Theo wondered.
When Theo got near the [Village], the (Animals) began to look in his direction, trying to identify him, but soon they continued to do what they were doing, not giving much importance to his arrival. Seeing this, Theo was very surprised, as he thought they might have some negative reaction to his arrival since he was not from the [Village].
”Oh, I've never seen you before, is this the first time here in [Ang Village]?” He asked Theo a red (Dog), who was 1.40m in height. Theo then looked at him and saw that he was a (Flaming Dog) in the 2nd Tier of the Student Kingdom.
”And you are?” Theo asked him.
”Auhaha! I am Jka, a native of the [And Village]'s [Dog Clan].” He replied and then asked, ”May I know who you are?”
”I am Theo Volts” Theo replied.
Jka: ”Oh, you have a very different name! Well, nice to meet you.” Theo only nodded in response.
Jka: ”Auhaha! Come on in, I know the [Village] well. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.”
Theo: ”So, can you tell me why so many animals live together in this place?”
Jka: ”Ah?! How do you not know about it? Didn't you come from another [Village]? ”He asked, surprised at Theo's question.
Seeing his great reaction, Theo said ”No, it's the first time I see a [Village]” Theo replied.
