Arthur watched her fiddling around and couldn't help but wonder.
"Aren't you running out of animal hides? Be careful not to prick your hand."
"Make myself a sweater, don't you feel cold in winter?"
Arthur had never heard of females wearing animal skin clothing; it was almost always the males who made it and gave it to the females to wear. The females wouldn't touch those things.
Can you?
Guo Xiaoxiao doesn't know how, but she can look into it.
"I'm going to start sewing clothes now!"
She was happy, so he let her be. Arthur sat by the cave, watching Guo Xiaoxiao's clumsy movements, a doting smile on his lips. She was getting more and more mischievous, but also quite cute.
What are you looking at?
Guo Xiaoxiao looked up at Arthur and found his gaze fixed on her. She quickly squeezed her legs together, afraid he would become a beast.
"Where are you looking? Turn around!"
"What's wrong with me looking at my female?"
Guo Xiaoxiao was speechless, so she simply ignored him and focused on sewing the clothes.
She first cut the animal hide into pieces of cloth, then sewed the cloth together with bone needles, stitching the hide into strips, and finally sewing them together with thread.
The fluid, skillful operation left Arthur speechless. "This is possible?" he thought. He'd never seen animal hide clothing sewn like this before.
Guo Xiaoxiao's movements were precise, at a master level, but the finished product was a disaster, utterly ugly. The stitching wasn't done well, it would definitely let in drafts from all sides if worn, and the two sides were even different lengths.
A complete failure. Guo Xiaoxiao tore the clothes apart and wanted to sew them back together.
Arthur watched as Guo Xiaoxiao struggled all morning to fix the clothes; at least they weren't a mess anymore. Unfortunately, they were missing sleeves, so she mended them.
He even proudly showed it to Arthur.
Arthur's mouth twitched when he saw the clothes Guo Xiaoxiao had sewn. These clothes were absolutely unpresentable! If she wore them out, where would he put his face? Other orcs would probably think that Guo Xiaoxiao, being a male, couldn't make animal skin clothing.
Is it pretty?
Guo Xiaoxiao tilted her head and blinked her beautiful black eyes.
"nice"
Arthur offered a reluctant compliment, reaching out to take the animal skin garment in his hands, and said...
I'll teach you how to do it.
Arthur sat down, took a bone knife, and began to outline the animal hide. He then threaded a bone needle through the hide and sewed it up, explaining the process to Guo Xiaoxiao as he worked.
He patiently guided them through the parts they didn't understand, and before they knew it, it was already afternoon, yet the two of them were still immersed in their own worlds.
Arthur altered the clothes and gave them to Guo Xiaoxiao.
"What do you think?"
"It looks great, thank you, Arthur."
Guo Xiaoxiao took the clothes and admired them carefully. They did indeed look much better, or rather, she had completely changed her clothes. She was very happy and showed a sweet smile.
Arthur's gaze was gentle as he stroked her soft hair, his beautiful voice like a drowning charm.
"My Xiaoxiao will always be so beautiful. I hope you can be this happy and smiling every day."
His earnestness made Guo Xiaoxiao pause for a moment, then she tiptoed and kissed Arthur's cheek before putting down the animal skin and running into the snow.
Arthur stood up, chased after her, embraced her soft waist, and kissed her fiercely.
"Fool, don't run so fast you'll fall."
"I won't fall."
Guo Xiaoxiao thought to herself, Arthur has changed so much. Is the Beast Mark really that magical? Since becoming partners, Arthur is always so relaxed, unlike before when he was so serious.
She liked Arthur like this; he was more human now, no longer a beast.
The two walked hand in hand in the snow. Guo Xiaoxiao explained the situation and territory of the Yushan tribe to Arthur. Arthur thoroughly understood the place, but seeing Guo Xiaoxiao's focused expression, he couldn't bear to interrupt her.
Arthur
Kasha, that female who's always causing trouble, was informed by Batul that Arthur was still alive.
The news spread throughout the tribe that Arthur had settled in the Feather Mountain tribe. She had come specifically to find him, hoping to establish a relationship with him, but she missed one thing: she only heard the first part of what Batur said—Arthur had returned—and didn't hear the last sentence Batur said: he had taken a mate.
Arthur ignored her; he regretted giving Kasha the ruby, as it had caused her to harass him frequently in the Blacktooth tribe.
Guo Xiaoxiao felt disgusted and didn't want to talk to her, so she pulled Arthur away.
Kasha saw Arthur and Guo Xiaoxiao getting along well and were very close, and she was insanely jealous.
Arthur
She called out to Arthur with resentment, she wanted Arthur, a lowly orc, how dare he try to take Arthur from her? He was hers, he was hers.
Arthur frowned. He disliked Kasha. This kind of female was obviously vain and extremely opportunistic. She was only interested in his strength and wanted to cling to him. He hated people like that and didn't want to associate with them.
There is only pity for Batur
"roll"
He said coldly
"Arthur, you're the one who gave me things and begged me to go back to the tribe with you, have you forgotten?"
The gift Arthur gave her was that red crystal, but it was merely a means to win over other females.
Kasha didn't see it that way. She accepted it thinking Arthur was giving it to her out of gratitude and to confess his feelings. She didn't believe that someone as dignified as Kasha wouldn't be favored by a male.
I really don't know where she gets her confidence from.
ridiculous…
"You're overthinking it. I'm not asking you for anything, so put away your arrogance."
Arthur's tone was icy; even looking at Kasha made him feel nauseous.
Kasha then turned her attention to Guo Xiaoxiao. Seeing Arthur's cold attitude towards her, she concluded that Guo Xiaoxiao had seduced him.
"You already have two clan leaders, why are you still trying to steal Arthur from me?"
She yelled at Guo Xiaoxiao, her outburst making her look even worse.
Guo Xiaoxiao saw that Kasha was acting accusingly, but she couldn't find the right person. Kasha was Arthur's partner, so why was she showing off like this?
"Who do you think you are? You don't deserve it. I've put up with you for too long. I let it go last time, but you're throwing a tantrum again today. Are you just bored and have nothing better to do?"
She answered bluntly, and Kasha, enraged, charged at her. Arthur stepped in front of Guo Xiaoxiao, and Arthur grabbed Kasha's fist.
Kasha glared at Guo Xiaoxiao, wishing she could kill her, but dared not do anything to Arthur.
"Don't you want your hand anymore?"
Arthur warned coldly that he was fiercely protective of his own, and no one, no matter who, could bully his partner.
Kasha was furious at Arthur's protection of Guo Xiaoxiao, but she was also afraid of him. In the Black Tooth tribe, Arthur was never polite to the females and had established many rules to control them.
She shook off Arthur's hand, gritted her teeth, and left, giving Guo Xiaoxiao a vicious glare before she went.
Guo Xiaoxiao glared back fearlessly. This Kasha was a vicious and foolish person; she couldn't let her guard down. Who knew if she might sneak up behind her one day and push her, causing her to fall flat on her face?
The thought of simply killing her arose in Arthur's mind. He could be absolutely cruel to any female other than Guo Xiaoxiao.
Guo Xiaoxiao sensed that the murderous aura emanating from Arthur was somewhat terrifying, and said
"Don't do anything reckless. Kasha is a bit stupid and doesn't think things through. Let's just ignore her."
"Um"
Arthur nodded in agreement. Guo Xiaoxiao was too kind. The only way to deal with foolish females was to teach them to behave themselves with ruthlessness.
