Chapter 212 The earthen tribe 2 (1/2)
The off road car gradually approached, Mars was ready as he already had activated [Half awaken] and the first sign that the gun turret would open up he would activate [Instant movement] and get in the way of the fire, but to his surprise the gun turrets didn't open up as the car stopped a few meters in front of the group and a short figure stepped out of the vehicle, Mars looked at the figure and thought to himself
'they really are dwarves...'
the person that stepped out of the vehicle was clearly a member of the earthen tribe as he only reached up to Mars' chest in height and had a very solid build that was visible even though his clothes, Mars looked at his face and saw that he was slightly panicked as he greeted the group
”you must be travelers, is anyone of you a doctor?”
Mars kept silent, even though he had a miracle like healing skill he didn't feel like using it for some stranger, bedsides he had been somewhat low on energy units for sometime now, then suddenly Yel spoke up
”I have received basic training from my mother”
”oh a sky person thank the heavens, please help my wife she's giving birth!”
”y-yes”
Yel agreed but didn't move from the spot as she looked over at Mars, Mars could feel her gaze and gave a sigh before he spoke
”it's fine Yel go help”
”thank you master”
Yel disappeared into the vehicle and the nervous soon to be farther paced around outside the vehicle for some time without speaking to Mars or the others, Mars gave a wry smile and put down his backpack and sat down on top of it, the girls also let their baggage fall to the ground before they sat down and waited, Mars looked at the dwarf that paced back and forth and thought about when it would be his turn to look that nervous but dismissed the thought he was always using prevention so he doubted that it would be his turn anytime soon
'...well you never know in life'
soon a loud woman's cry was heard after that of a baby, the dwarf stopped pacing and looked over towards the vehicle before he rushed over just as Yel stepped out, the dwarf asked Yel with fervor
”how is she? is my child alright?”
Yel gave a smile
”they are both fine, congratulations you're now the father of a health baby girl”
”a girl... a girl... I see...”
the dwarf looked spellbound as he repeated the words a few more times before he ran into the vehicle, Mars gave a smile
”good work Yel”
”thank you master”
time passed and soon it was evening, Mars and the group had set up camp a little away from the vehicle and was in the progress of eating dinner when the dwarf couple walked over, mars looked at the woman and found she looked like a slightly short human teenager which looked weird since she was carrying a baby warped in a cloth, the dwarven woman saw Mars staring at her and gave a smile, Mars also gave a smile and stood up as the couple walked over, then the man spoke up
”thank you all very much for your help”
”we only did what was right”
”I see... my name is Mike and this is my wife Ulla”
both Mike and Ulla gave a bow before Mike spoke again
”even if you say you just did what was right at least let me return the favor... how about we take you all to the nearest city?”
Mars thought for a moment before he gave a smile and a nod
”well we would certainly appreciate it”
”great, then we leave at dawn”
