It was decided that we would rest at the home of Nina, a girl from the Naga Tribe.
According to Sharin, the town there was ruled by humans, and the bandits had set up their hideout in the underground passages.
“There are many wild animals outside the town, so you can sell the furs and meat you get immediately. Besides, where there are people, there are things to buy.”
“Yes, it’s very rational. And so you were driven out and caused trouble while on the move.”
Sharin apologized softly for her mistakes.
“I did steal livestock and break into homes… I might have caused destruction.”
“But looking at the map, the area around the town is quite wide. Was it necessary to move that far just because you were chased by Orcs?”
“Regarding that, it’s pathetic, but they actually took our hideout.”
At first, the bandits seemed to fight back, but eventually, the Orcs grew in power, and even their hideout was invaded. They took their homes, and they had no choice but to move from place to place to survive.
“You can go to the town, but it’s better if only the two of you enter.”
“Why can’t Piyo come?”
“Those humans think of us as no different from ordinary animals.”
The same as animals? So, they imagine us like the monsters I saw in games.
“Cloaks made from Naga leather, dresses made from Harpy feathers. Humans actually like such tasteless things.”
At Sharin’s words, Piyo made a sad expression next to me.
“Well, for the time being, I’ll take you to the vicinity of the town. It will take about two to three days from here.”
As we were talking, Nina’s mother approached us with a tray.
“I’m sorry to interrupt, but aren’t you hungry?”
