Su Ce looked over there and found that in front of a bonfire nearby, many people had gathered that almost all of them would surround the fire. There were even more complicated voices, which made him curious.
Is it some kind of activity during the Fire Dance Festival? But looking at other people’s expressions, it doesn’t seem to be the case…
Who seemed even more curious was Tan Tu, he “whooshed” to Su Ce’s side and sweetly asked, “Ah Ce, do you want to sit on my shoulder to see?”
Although there seemed to be more females surrounded there, the male’s size still made it impossible for Tan Tu to see clearly what was inside… However, he could let his Ah Ce see. In any case, it’s rare to see Ah Ce interested in anything…
Su Ce considered and nodded. Tan Tu immediately grinned, reached out his hand and took him on his shoulder.
In a short time, Su Ce’s vision became broader, and the whole person’s center of gravity was much higher than that of others.
In this way, he can see clearly.
Because there was a deep blue color that caught his eye.
It was Rui Ensi.
If this person is equivalent to a popular idol, then it is normal to make a little noise…
However, the man opposite him surprised Su Ce.
Actually, they are acquaintances.
A gentle looking female with white broken hair.
Ka Mai, the witch doctor who treated Su Ce after he fainted when he was transformed by the environment.
Su Ce is very fond of him.
It’s just… Why does such a person stood face to face with Rui Ensi and cause a commotion?
Su Ce was even more curious.
He saw Rui Ensi was talking to Ka Mai all this time. The faces of people beside him were a kinds of teasing or envious smiles. Rui Ensi even appeared more elegant than before… Only Ka Mai seemed to be in distress situation.
He felt a little familiar...this kind of scene.
Su Ce thought it over carefully. Then he saw Rui Ensi knelt down on one knee, like the loyalty of ancient European knights.
Although a tall and handsome man looks beautiful when he salutes another young man, this kind of scene is like proposing marriage.
However, Rui Ensi and Ka Mai are both females.
Although it is normal for males and males to become partners in this world—not to mention that all people here are male in appearance—aren’t females rare and precious?
Well, if males and males are possible, then females and females… even if it may be rare, it is not necessarily impossible.
At the very least, other people’s reactions were more surprised than other emotions. Moreover, there wasn’t a trace of anger or disgust at all!
Su Ce’s weight wasn’t that heavy for Tan Tu, so he happily carried Su Ce to the periphery of the growing circle of people—you know, at this growth rate, if he doesn’t go past, he won’t be able to grab a good position.
Soon, they pushed past.
Su Ce rode steadily around Tan Tu’s neck, watching the two men getting closer to each other and their voices becoming clearer.
Ka Mai’s voice was as soft as the spring breeze, but the meaning in the words seemed helpless. “I’m sorry, Rui Ensi. I can’t agree…”
Rui Ensi was still so elegant. He stood up, went to the opposite side of Ka Mai and looked at him deeply. “Dear Ka Mai, can you tell me why?”
Ka Mai paused, then said, “Isn’t it obvious? We’re females. There has never been a precedent for females to be with females.”
That’s because there has never been a powerful female like Rui Ensi! Many people thought so..
In Su Ce’s view, the way of life in the orcs world is for males to hunt and protect the tribe, while females take care of the cubs, which is a more reasonable distribution. When the number of females are not enough, male and male will also pair on their own, forming a one-to-one family. But all this is because males are powerful and can hunt for food, which is why they do so. However, females have no power. If two females are together, it’s not only a matter of not being able to reproduce offspring. Even if they can exchange labor for survival materials, it will cause devastating destruction when disaster strikes.
This isn’t advocated.
But Rui Ensi is different. He has the power to outperform all males—to be honest, he’s almost no different from males except that he has no beast form.
If he is, he can certainly rely on hunting to feed his family like other males… Therefore, Ka Mai’s refusal was actually untenable.
As expected, Rui Ensi laughed. “Ka Mai, you know, I have enough power. You can’t refuse me because of this.”
Ka Mai sighed. “Rui Ensi, I am a witch doctor.”
His subtext was already obvious. The witch doctor, who has no fertility and has devoted his whole life to the tribe’s existence. They have no way to take care of their families—that is, not only can they not have their own children, but they also have no chance to adopt a child from other families.
However, Rui Ensi is different. He is a female. Despite his strength, he can still have his own children and have a complete family.
For a female, having no fertility is really the saddest thing…
Rui Ensi was silent.
The onlookers also held their breath and waited for Rui Ensi’s response
Su Ce was also nervous. He also noticed Tan Tu’s stiffness.
But, Rui Ensi smiled.
“Ka Mai, you don’t accept me… is there any other reason besides this?” He paused. “Like, you actually hate me or what…”
Ka Mai froze. “No.”
Isn’t this already the most serious problem for females?
But as for Rui Ensi himself, Ka Mai didn’t hate it though he didn’t have much contact.
As a result, the radian of Rui Ensi’s lips increased. “Then, Ka Mai be my partner. As far as I’m concerned, there are no other reasons other than that you hate me.”
Ka Mai was silent.
Rui Ensi confession continued, “If you are worried about where we will live in the future… Don’t worry, I know that as a witch doctor of the tribe, you cannot leave the tribe for life. If you promise to be my partner, I will live with you in the Tiger tribe.”
As he said this, the masses responded differently, but formed two very sharp contrast.
The females in Tiger tribe are overjoyed, while males are resentful… Originally, they had to endure their partners’ excessive attention to other “females” only once in several years, but now it’s going to be a perennial one…
The Maya tribe were a little disappointed, but they didn’t show much surprise since they were also mostly in other tribes. The males heaved a sigh of relief and immediately looked relaxed. The females of the remaining tribes expressed envy, while the males were granted amnesty—this guy who stole the attention of their partners, once he has a person he likes, he won’t be so keen to go to other tribes. Come on! Such an idea.
Rui Ensi looked into Ka Mai’s eyes, with his handsome face he affectionately said, “I will take care of you. I am a female and I will not be as careless as males. If you are going to pick herbs and get other kinds of medicinal herbs, even if it’s a dangerous place, if you are with me, you don’t have to ask others for help.”
“Trust me, I have enough ability to protect you…”
Ka Mai was moved. The females present showed a little… uh, dreamy look.
Su Ce felt his arm. Judging from the performance of these females… he began to understand why Tan Tu was a well-known unmarried and tough male in the tribe but wasn’t favored by females.
This was probably due to a romantic complex of native females that Su Ce cannot understand.
Or simply because there is such a “female” for comparison!
Su Ce still prefers the more down-to-earth Tan Tu. If Tan Tu was so ostentatious when he pursued him, he probably wouldn’t want to be with this person at all.
However, as a native male, it’s really sad that he cannot compete with a female…
Rui Ensi has begun his further offensive over there.
“If you are worried that I wouldn’t have children of my own…”
Finally speaking of the point, everyone pricked up their ears.
Rui Ensi said, “Ka Mai, I can’t beat any male. How can I give birth to any willingly? What’s more regrettable is that I have never met a female who can defeat me!”
This sentence has darkened the faces of all males.
Can’t beat a female—that’s a great shame!
However, they really can’t beat…
Even if they are unwilling, they must admit it.
Rui Ensi is the most powerful orc in hundreds of years!
After that, Rui Ensi’s voice became soft. “Ka Mai, if it is because of physical reasons…”
Becoming a witch doctor means sacrifice, not only fertility, but when life expectancy will be shortened.
This is also one of Ka Mai’s biggest hesitations.
“Ka Mai, even if you can only live for 500 years, I will always be with you. The rest of the time, I can spend in our memories, and then I go back to our home to find you...just will you wait for me?”
All the females were moved.
No matter how firm Ka Mai was, he can’t say no directly, but said, “You…let me think…”
However, Rui Ensi’s words shocked a person on the spot.
What...500 years?
Su Ce felt his brain humming.
Orcs...can live for 500 years...or more…
What about Tan Tu?
Su Ce was stiff all over.
He’s only an earth person. His life span…even the longest...is only 100 years.
What would Tan Tu do after he died?
