“Yoo Sijin”‘s gaze turned gloomy instantly, his ideal situation was to become Gu Mengmeng’s male and gain her love, using it to care for his fellow tribesmen. If that was not possible, Gu Mengmeng could have accepted the two female half-orcs, so the males are able to die in peace even if it meant they could not get through the winter.
But now…
Looking at his own swollen face that was black and blue, then at the males beside the messenger… Ha, so that was how it felt like to be ashamed of his appearance?
As for females, any other tribe would have accepted the females even if they were half-orcs, but… the messenger’s tribe seemed like it did not lack females.
Gu Mengmeng walked through the crowd, taking each step closer to “Yoo Sijin”, squatting down, and said to him with a flat, monotonous voice, “What you can provide for me is not of value. If you want to talk terms with me, at least give me some sincerity.”
“Yoo Sijin” did not understand, only looking at Gu Mengmeng, startled. He did not know why, he just felt like Gu Mengmeng was giving him a chance.
He thought for a moment and responded, “As long as the mighty messenger is willing to take in my fellow tribesmen, I will do anything. Anything!”
Gu Mengmeng chuckled, “Tell me everything about when you met that guy, don’t miss out any detail.”
“Yoo Sijin” furrowed his brows, recalling closely, then started describing, “Over 10 days ago, a group of stray beasts attacked our tribe. It was his sudden appearance that helped us win the stray beasts. We begged for him to stay at our tribe. Although he was a crippled beast, he was a fifth-level orc after all, so with him, we would not have to worry about stray beasts attacking our tribe again. However, he looked sorrowful, only gazing into the distance, plainly saying something like, “If I stay, that would be the real danger.” then he suddenly stopped talking and just stared at me, for such a long time, that I got goosebumps, before saying that I resembled the old lover of the messenger. He said if I wanted to save the tribe, I could only come to depend on Saint Nazaire, so I came…”
Thinking about it, what a fool he was.
He actually really brought his fellow tribesmen across mountains and waters here, purely based on advice given to him by a man whom he could barely name.
Gu Mengmeng smiled coldly, stray beasts attacking a tribe, and he appeared so coincidentally to save them? Cole did not seem like such a fox. Furthermore, his mating mark had been washed by Gu Mengmeng, so he was a stray beast himself, yet he attacked the stray beasts for the tribe? It seemed like it was a self-directed, self-acted out play all along.
Gu Mengmeng gave a sinister smile, but did not tell “Yoo Sijin” what she was really thinking, only replying coldly, “Did he say anything else?”
“Yoo Sijin” frowned, thinking carefully for a long while, “Oh, yes. He still said a strange line, something like, “If a fake appeared that looked more like the real, how long can you be adored for?”. I did not know what he was saying either, when I asked, he only smiled and said he was just talking to himself, so I did not take it to heart.”
Fake?
Gu Mengmeng turned back and evidently saw Lea’s stiffened face.
Ha, he even knew about Lea imitating “Yoo Sijin” to gain her affection, and still took the effort to look for a fake with the appearance that looked closer to “Yoo Sijin”, just to demoralize Lea?
Gu Mengmeng stood up, turning around to face Lea and Elvis, walking back, then suddenly stopped, “Your tribesmen can join Saint Nazaire, but you must be self-sufficient. And… if you want to continue living here, then don’t use the name “Yoo Sijin” anymore. Or else, who knows when the both of them might go crazy and rip you apart.”
