Regardless of her skills, the most important question is: why did she appear in the Yushan tribe?

Mikel said

Why are you in the Yushan tribe?

Guo Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said

"I got lost in the jungle, and your brother saved me."

Mikel's only guess now was the opposing Sishui tribe, because he couldn't think of any other reason.

"You wouldn't happen to be the high shaman of the Sishui tribe, would you? You've been eyeing our tribe covetously but haven't found a weakness, so you were specially sent to seduce my brother."

"You're talking nonsense! I didn't do that!"

Accused of being a spy for an enemy country, Guo Xiaoxiao can forget about staying here.

Mikel persisted

"Tell me, why did you come to the Yushan tribe?"

Guo Xiaoxiao remained silent. No matter what she said, Mikel was convinced that she was of dubious origin. After a moment, she said...

"I was definitely not sent by any other tribe. Don't slander me. My abilities are innate, and I will not harm anyone."

From Mikel's perspective, Guo Xiaoxiao is highly suspicious. First of all, how could such a beautiful underage female get lost in the jungle? And then, by sheer coincidence, she was found by Mikel, the chief of the Yushan tribe. It's chilling to think about from any angle.

"I will never allow anyone to scheme against my brother."

After Mikel finished speaking, he was about to grab Guo Xiaoxiao.

"what are you up to?"

Guo Xiaoxiao screamed and struggled.

Mikel grabbed her arms and said:

"Come with me!"

Guo Xiaoxiao struggled desperately, yelling, "Damn system, damn system, if you're still useful, show me what you're capable of!"

"Let me go!"

Mikel didn't say a word, but dragged Guo Xiaoxiao away, pulling her to a sparsely populated corner of the tribe.

Guo Xiaoxiao looked around, her heart filled with astonishment. Could it be that they were planning to kill her to silence her and end it all?

[System: Host, don't worry, this orc has no murderous intent, there's no need to be afraid.]

Guo Xiaoxiao responded: What should we do then? You have to think of a solution!

[System: Male beasts in the Beast World are particularly protective of females. Go with him first, then do something unexpected.]

Guo Xiaoxiao: Surprise! How exactly does it mean to surprise?

[System: Give him a push, make him stop being unreasonable. For example, you could take the initiative and say you'd pretend you didn't see what happened, and in exchange, I'd be your female.]

Guo Xiaoxiao: Pah! You actually came up with such a dirty trick?

[System: This is the most effective way. Otherwise, think about it yourself. If you were writing a novel in the real world, how would you develop the plot in this situation? Think about it carefully.]

Guo Xiaoxiao: As expected of you, you're utterly useless! So I ended up having to do it all myself.

[System: Isn't this to increase the host's actual participation flexibility? If it all depends on me, it won't be a human machine anymore.]

Guo Xiaoxiao was extremely disappointed with the system. Forget it, she figured she might as well rely on herself.

"Wait, stop! I'm telling you."

Upon hearing Guo Xiaoxiao's words, Mikel immediately stopped pulling and stared intently at her.

"Speak."

Guo Xiaoxiao changed her expression and said sincerely:

"I possess extraordinary abilities. I was previously confined to a cave and forbidden from leaving. A few days ago, the orc guarding me fell asleep, so I escaped."

Mikel frowned slightly and asked:

"Which tribe of orcs were you from before?"

"I don't know either. I've been locked in a cave since I was a child. Food was brought in by someone. What tribe? I really don't know. Anyway, I ran away and walked a very, very far away. I met Miken at daybreak."

Being beautiful and possessing special abilities, it's understandable that she's imprisoned. Mikel wavered; he had originally intended to take Guo Xiaoxiao to Mikeson and the elders for a decision.

Seeing this, Guo Xiaoxiao pressed her advantage and said...

"But I heard from the orcs that I can't let others know about my abilities, or I'll be in great danger. They said they locked me up for my own good, and that if others found me in the beast world, they would try to take me away. But I really wanted to come out and see the world, so I ran away, and now I can't find my way back."

Mikel, with his quick wit and sharp logic, thought about it again and realized that Guo Xiaoxiao's words made some sense. Beautiful and unique, she was highly likely to be kept in captivity. Being underage and unable to mate, the Yushan tribe wouldn't be foolish enough to send such a female to monitor Mikel. With a female like Guo Xiaoxiao around, they would probably hide her away as if she were invisible; why would they release her?

Is everything you're saying true?

Guo Xiaoxiao nodded heavily.

"Of course it's true. If I were here to harm your brother, why would I show you my abilities? I'm not stupid."

The whole system is to blame…

Guo Xiaoxiao thought to herself, "Who on earth set up such a terrible system...?"

Mikel was the only one who discovered her secret, and he felt a little better, but then he thought about what had just happened.

He said in a deep voice:

Does my brother know what you looked like just now?

"I don't know. The orcs told me before that I must never let anyone know about my abilities. I couldn't control myself and you found out."

Mikel's doubts lessened considerably, mainly because Guo Xiaoxiao's explanation made sense, but he still dared not let his guard down. The shock Guo Xiaoxiao had given him was too great for him to completely trust.

Mikel said:

"You'll be my brother's partner someday, you need to let him know that."

After thinking to herself, Guo Xiaoxiao followed Mikel's lead.

"Yes, I'd have to tell you sooner or later, but I really didn't want anyone else to know. Now you're the first to find out, so why don't you just pretend I'm male and I'll live with you from now on?"
