Chapter 630 - 629, Certainly_1
Satisfied by her father’s approval, Namila ecstatically dragged the gentle orc next to her and ran outside, completely oblivious to the orc’s ugly expression and the shadow in his eyes.
Meanwhile, Ji Nuan got up from her beast skin bed after having a little rest. Looking outside, she saw that the sun was still high in the sky. It seemed she had only taken a nap.
Perhaps it was because of eating the Beast God Fruit, Ji Nuan’s body felt much better compared to before. After just a short nap, she felt as if all the fatigue from her journey completely vanished.
After a quick wash, she changed into a set of beast skin clothes and left the tent.
"Where are you going?" asked Ya Li when he saw Ji Nuan coming out.
Ji Nuan grabbed a backpack: "I am rested, and there’s still a lot of time left. I am going to look in the forest for some particular herbs and plants."
Ya Li took her backpack and shouldered it: "Let’s go, I’ll bring some orc guards with us."
Ji Nuan nodded. It was better to be cautious in an unfamiliar forest, she didn’t want to trouble anyone if anything did happen.
At the edge of the encampment, Fu Yi was already waiting. After finalizing the guard arrangements, Ya Li took a team of orc guards, Fu Yi and Ji Nuan, and headed towards the forest.
...
"Kun, are you upset?" The young beastman asked cautiously.
Kun was focused on gathering fruits and did not pay attention to the orc beside him.
"I’m just worried for you. You are a beastman of the tribe. You’re supposed to live in the tribe. Namila gets whatever beastman she desires. What if she throws you out of the tribe for constantly defying her? Winter is coming. Without sufficient food and cave shelter, you could die." The young beastman continued to chatter on.
Kun frowned, looking rather impatiently at the young beastman.
A chill promptly silenced the young beastman who scampered over to other orcs.
The orcs laughed at him: "You know that Kun hates Namila the most. Why do you keep testing his patience? Be careful he might just lose it one day and give you a beating," one of them said while waving a fist packing a punch.
The young beastman stiffened his neck,looking unyieldingly furious: "I am doing this for everyone’s good. It is precisely because Kun refuses to become Namila’s mate that our hunting team always gets the least food during distributions, even less than those beastmen who have made mistakes."
He pouted his lips, looking extremely wronged.
A fellow tribesman patted his head: "Focus on your own tasks. Why think about so many things?"
The young beastman nodded: "Oh."
He obediently went off to the side to gather fruits.
The orcs exhaled a soft sigh when they looked at each other, worrying that if things continued this way, there would be no orcs willing to team up with Kun for hunting in the tribe.
"Ji Nuan, is this the one?" The orc’s voice clearly reached the ears of the Nacha Tribe’s orcs. They looked at each other, their guard slightly heightened. They weren’t overly surprised, as many tribes came to the trading meet.
"Hmm, those with small white flowers will do." A soft and delicate feminine voice came, causing a spark in the orcs. A female!
