Chapter 238 Finally Caught Up
As she spoke, the female looked toward the roots of the large tree.
The handsome young orc was being buzzed around by a giant bee, who kept telling him to invite a female out to enjoy the night view.
Many females come to this shop to drink and eat, and quite a few are undoubtedly there for this handsome, unmarried orc...
But several months have passed, and still no female has been able to mate with him.
Seeing this, everyone naturally became curious about the female in room number one.
However, no matter how curious they were, they were destined not to see the female and the orc tonight.
The giant bee sat on the wooden stake, kicking its legs and raising its head, earnestly trying to persuade the young man.
"Riley, the female is leaving tomorrow! You won't have a chance then!"
Riley picked at his ears, stuffed them with a soft cloth, then raised his hand and poked the big bee's head.
"Go to sleep! With your eagerness to get married, you might never grow up enough to transform into human form, and then no female will want you!"
The big bee gave a hum, wiggled its rear, and flew away.
"I'm not going to care about you anymore! I'm going to tell the female beastman! You're a beastman who can't get married!"
Riley plugged his ears and couldn't hear.
He leaned lazily against the wooden stake and yawned.
His gaze fell on the red moon in the sky, then glanced sideways at the treehouse beside him.
"The fourth tier... what a hassle! Luckily, I have the sturdy and well-maintained Room No. 1, such a nice room. And... 30 coins isn't expensive at all. In the Royal Court, it would cost at least 100 coins."
The next morning, just as dawn was breaking.
Riley stretched and went outside, only to be startled by a red-tailed, red-haired snake-beastman sleeping on a wooden stake.
He walked over and patted the other person on the shoulder.
"Hey! Don't sleep here. If you want to sleep, pay to climb the tree."
The snake-beastman groggily raised his head and rubbed his eyes.
"I'll be up right away."
Riley's pupils contracted slightly.
This orc looks...extremely similar to, or even the same as, the snake orc from last night.
The two orcs were simply too different in aura; their eye, hair, and tail colors were all completely different. To an ordinary person, they would only appear somewhat similar. But Riley was different. He recognized at a glance that these two snake-orcs were twins.
Just then, a rustling sound of swimming came from behind.
He turned his head, and the snake-beastman with snow-white hair and a silver tail swam down.
Nakan immediately stood up and shouted with joy.
"Naffel!"
Nafi looked at Riley.
"He came to see us."
Riley couldn't resist whistling.
"You snake clan really do offer a 'get one free' deal."
He could tell that there was no marriage contract on the red snake.
And they came all this way, covered in dust...
Tsk, I understood instantly without even thinking.
Nakan's face felt a little hot.
While it's true that... saying it out loud makes it seem a bit... you know.
Riley stood behind the stake.
"Want breakfast? One more orc, and the house price won't increase, but the food will cost an extra 5 coins."
Nafi frowned; he hadn't brought any shell coins with him.
Nakan quickly swam over and gave him five coins.
"I went back to the tribe to retrieve the amnesty implements and borrowed some shell coins from various places..."
The voice grew softer and softer.
They are very poor.
Before leaving the cursed land, Nakhan never had the awareness of poverty.
But as he traveled along the way, he realized this deeply after he had to spend shell coins to buy food.
I've heard that in the Giant Tree Forest, poor orcs like them won't find any females who want them.
Riley narrowed his eyes slightly.
The absolution implements... they really do come from a cursed land...
Nafiel led Nakan up the tree.
Riley stood behind the wooden stake, watching the two figures disappear into the distance.
A large bee buzzed out, its six legs rubbing its eyes, asking in a daze.
"Riley, are there any orcs passing by this early?"
Riley beckoned to the big bee, then leaned close to his ear and whispered something.
The big bee's eyes widened, and it flew away in a flash.
Room number one in the treehouse.
Jiang Xi slept soundly and comfortably.
When she woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.
She paused for two seconds, then immediately jumped up.
"Why is it so late! We still have a long way to go!"
Nafi's arm came around from behind, encircling her waist and pulling her closer to him.
"Let the female master sleep a little longer."
Jiang Xi looked down and saw that Nafi'er still had his eyes closed, his white eyelashes covering his eyes, creating a small shadow.
She paused for a moment.
Nafi... staying in bed?
Although it was the first time she had woken up with Nafiel, it was also the first time she had ever seen an orc stay in bed so long.
She thought for a moment, then collapsed into his arms.
But she was no longer sleepy, so she counted on her fingers.
This place is not far from the royal court; it will only take two days to reach it.
In fact, she knew that she probably wouldn't be able to reach the royal court before the sea tribe.
In that case, taking a little more rest and slowing down wouldn't be a bad idea.
As Jiang Xi was thinking, there was a knock on the door, and a familiar voice that shouldn't have been there rang out.
“Female Envoy, Nafiel, a bee-like beastman has come to urge us to check out.”
Jiang Xi's eyes widened.
This is……
"Nakan?"
She looked down at Naphel, who had just opened his eyes.
Those misty eyes were impossible to read from any angle.
Nafi sat up, embraced the female master, rested his chin on her shoulder from behind, and mumbled an "Mmm".
"We arrived in Nakan early in the morning."
I slept all morning, so I guess I've had enough.
Jiang Xi's eyes widened. "How did he know we were here?"
Nafi reached out and picked up the protective scales that had fallen beside the bed.
"this."
"And he can sense my location."
When the protective scales align with his orientation, the answer becomes obvious.
Jiang Xi looked at the protective scales, feeling a little embarrassed.
But as awkward as it was, I had to get up and check out to avoid that heartless boss deducting money or raising prices.
"Then let's get up quickly."
As she spoke, she went to look for her clothes, but was surprised to find that there were none of them in the room.
Where are my clothes?
Nafi glanced outside.
“I washed it last night and left it outside to dry. I’m going to get it.”
After saying that, he released the female, got up, and swam away.
Jiang Xi quickly wrapped the blanket-like cloth around herself, lay down on the bed, and turned her back to the door.
This is so embarrassing.
Nafi returned quickly.
After Jiang Xi finished dressing, she went out.
Under the sunlight, Nakan stood on the vast clouds. He turned his head to look at himself, his red hair and golden eyes revealing a handsome face with shimmering red scales.
“Nakan… Nakan.”
Jiang Xi greeted him awkwardly.
Nakan laughed.
"Female messengers, I have finally caught up with you."
Then he added, "I've already sent those three little pigs to the Lion's Roar tribe and arranged for the orcs to feed them."
Jiang Xi was even more embarrassed.
"Thank you, thank you so much."
