335 The Natives of the Western Continen (2/2)
After all, half-beasts were humans that transformed into that by experiments of other species during the invasion, and from then their species was born, but looking into the past, the ancestors of the half-beasts were humans.
There were some species of the western continent that joined the continental war due to the enticement of outsiders, and since that war ended, no one dared to go from one continent to the other making that both continents didn't have any understanding of what was happening on the other side.
Yale doubted that there was still hatred for things that so many years ago, especially when the western continent was part of the attacking force, and Liye didn't eradicate all of them as he just went for the masterminds.
No one spoke after that while the group advanced, and the only sound they could hear besides their own steps was that of the small stones in Yale's hand.
Although it wasn't too normal to play with some small stones while traveling, it was quite a boring travel no one commented about Yale's actions.
Yale suddenly stopped, and the sound of the small stones in his hand disappeared. Seeing Yale's sudden action, everyone stopped just before hearing six sounds of metal hitting something hard.
”It isn't polite that you attack us from the shadows. Show yourselves!”
After hearing Yale's words, the others finally understood the use of those small stones and the origin of those six sounds. Six small stones had hit six small needles that were shot towards them.
They didn't understand why their Spiritual Sense failed to sense their presences, but even Yale couldn't detect them. However, with his mastery of the Time Law, he had seen that attack before in a premonition, so he grabbed some small stones to block it.
In fact, even after blocking the attack, Yale still didn't know where the enemies were hiding, but he hoped that his act was enough to scare them and force them to show themselves openly for fear to offending Yale.
”Humans! Why are you here? Humans aren't welcome in our territory!”
A sharp voice sounded from the forest, and at that moment everyone detected that person with their Spiritual Sense. Moreover, the one who spoke was rushing towards them.
A moment later a figure appeared before them, but another three appeared from the other directions, and until they appeared, no one noticed of their presence.
”I don't know how a mere human detected our presence, but... Wait! Why is there one of us in your group? No, I have never seen him, is he from another tribe?”
The one who spoke was the same who did it before, but he was speechless after meeting with Shirk because the one who spoke and the other three were Lizardmen and they looked extremely similar to Shirk.
Initially, from a distance, they didn't notice about Shirk at all since they only attacked because they saw some humans walking for their forest.
Yale quickly used the Divine Death Eyes to check as much information as possible from the four lizardmen before replying.
”We are sorry for intruding into your forest. We were traveling by the coast to exchange some goods when a monster attacked our ship, and we appeared in front of this coast. We aren't sure of where we are right now or what exactly happened to us.”
Yale obtained some information from those Lizardmen, and he used it to create a fake story for them.
One of the five Lizardmen had a huge scar which was the main reason for Yale's fake story.
That scar was made by a sea monster that was a Law Master in the Space Law and that Lizardman met it while traveling in a ship from one town to another to exchange goods. However, when he awakened, he was on the nearby coast and ended joining the lizardman tribe of the others since he didn't know how to return home.
Yale's story followed the same pattern, so he had confidence in that those Lizardmen would believe it. After all, Yale doubted that any of them could fully understand the acts of that sea monster that managed to become a Law Master.
