V4C142 – Strange Custom (Unedited) (2/2)
Haha, did this guy get tired of living! The future head? Saying these words in front of the patriarch, wasn’t this the same as trying to usurp the throne! Wait, who was going to marry Shui Ling’er? Why do I not know? What the heck? Did I just miss who the patriarch gave his daughter over to?
It was such a pity that such a beauty was going to be married off to a wild man. To be honest, I also coveted her quite a bit.
Just like I thought, the complexion of the patriarch got dark as he said in a calm voice, “So what you mean is that you will be the future head of the tribe? Should I marry my daughter off to you?”
“Yes!” Godzilla proudly stood up, patting his chest.
This guys IQ was surely very low! Could this guy not understand the irony in the patriarch’s words?
“Good, good, good, you are very good!” The patriarch was getting angry as he said the word good four times. {TL: Behold, it isn’t easy to see 4 “good” from a single dude in web novels.}
“Since you have agreed then I request a duel with him!” Godzilla pointed his spear towards me and shouted in a clear voice.
Why the fuck is this guy trying to fight me? I looked at Godzilla and wondered if this guy was brain-dead?
The patriarch also felt like vomiting blood at this moment. What the fuck was wrong with this guy? Could he really not understand? Just because I said good, you decided that I was complimenting you?
However, the patriarch didn’t understand me well. Although there wasn’t any requirement when marrying in the tribe, the husband of his daughter couldn’t be nothing at all, right? Thinking of this, the patriarch nodded slightly and said, “Alright, Ge Sila and the distant guest will display a military competition before us. But they will not fatally wound the other party!”
Was he talking about me? I glanced around but everyone was looking at me. This made me confused.
“Me?” I pointed at myself as I was stunned and asked Shui Ling’er next to me, “Why is this guy competing with me? And why is your father giving permission for it?”
Shui Ling’er looked at me with a flurried look and said, “It’s because he also likes me. Although father betrothed me to you, he can still challenge you according to the custom of the tribe!”
{Put that: “Excuse me, what the fuck?” meme here.}
“Your father betrothed you to me?!” My mouth opened wide. What the heck, what sort of custom was this? Was this the: Finding a foreigner and tempting him into staying?
At this time, a middle-aged woman next to me looked at my surprised appearance and said, “Don’t you know the custom of our tribe?”
“What custom?” I asked, bewildered.
“The woman who isn’t yet married will keep their chests revealed. When a man admiring her expresses his love for her, he will help the woman cover her chest. If the woman doesn’t reject, it means that the woman has accepted the man’s love!” The middle-aged woman explained, “Shui Ling’er didn’t reject you a moment ago, that explains that she also adores you. But Ge Sila was also pursuing her, so he has the right to challenge you! If you lose then you can’t have Shui Ling’er!”
“What strange customs?” What chaotic bullshit was this? I just covered her out of good intentions yet got a wife? True, it was a big gain, but the issue is I wasn’t clear of my current situation. And it wasn’t very convenient getting a wife at this moment!
