Chapter 162

(Tl note: the next chapter 163-165 is basically double and some are almost triple the length of this chapter . So I might need two days to finish each chapter or release it in two different parts . Please understand but I will try my best to finish it in a day)

“I’ll play with you later . ”

Yu got off from Shiro’s back when they had got out of the wild forest . Shiro who doesn’t want to leave, entangled his tentacles at Yu . the only thing that made him held back was Yu promise that he will play with him later . After that, Shiro dived back to the ground .

“Yu, why does this forest don’t have a lot of creatures?”

Nina used her 【awareness】 to the limit and despite the size of the wilderness and the forest was empty .

“It’s because this forest was just planted recently . So there are only a little number of creatures in it now . I think in the future they will start to come . ”

“Namari!”

From the far plains then a group of people showed up and they also noticed Yu .

“Look! Look! It’s the king!”

“ah, finally you’ve come my king!”

“Namari-chan, my king, welcome!”

The group that was coming was made of children in the front, some had ears on top of their head signifying the beastmen race . Behind them, the children of the dwarves with pale and gray skin could be seen .

“Wait, Namari! Hear me, give them candy!”

Marifa commanded was a bit delayed and in that seconds, the children have flocked towards Yu and grouped around him . Marifa tried to separate them but it was futile as more children came and jumped at Yu .

“Get away from Odono-sama! Here, I have candy over here!”

“Candy?”

Everyone point of view instantly moved to the cloth bag that was held by Namari . As he moved the bag from his right hand to his left, all the children eyes were following after the bag .

Namari then put his hand inside and took out a candy from the bag . He put it inside his mouth as his mouth raised a smile due to the sweetness of the candy melted in his mouth . Yu can clearly hear the children swallowed their saliva . Namari then looked at them with an evil smile .

“If you want some candy, come and get it!”

“Wait for me! I also want candy!”

“Me too!”

“Namari-chan, wait!”

More than half of the children then started to chase after Namari . Even some of the fairies were drooling from their mouth and started to follow him .

The rest of the children that isn’t chasing after Namari looked like they have something to say as they look at Yu, Nina, and Lena alternately .

“What is it? If you’re not going, you may not get any candy . ”

“But… king… . Today…”

The beast children were looking at Yu with a sad face . The words that they wanted to say wasn’t coming out so their eyes started to become watery . Yu then stroke their heads lightly and put up a calm smile .

“You know; I will be staying today . ”

“Oh, really?”

“Really?”

“Is that not a lie?”

The children then asked with a voice that carried happiness within .

“Now, go chase after Namari . ”

Hearing Yu words, the children nodded and ran after Namari . Several children however decided to flock around Nina and Lena .

“Nee-chan? You’re a human right? Please don’t hurt us . ”

It was a beast boy that was asking at Nina with full of fear in his eyes; even his tail was tucked in between his leg .

“I will not hurt you . I’m Yu’s friend . ” (Nina)

“…a genius like me won’t bully a weakling . ” (Lena)

“Really?” (beast boy)

“Yes, that’s the truth . ” (Nina)

“It’s just my mom saying that my dad was on a journey but I know the truth . The humans killed him . ” (beast boy)

“It’s alright . Now go play with Namari . ” (Yu)

“Yes my King! Later see you then!” (beast boy)

The children then move away . Yu somehow when talking towards the children has a hint of kindness on them .

Although the storm has passed but the danger hasn’t ended . Just when the first wave was gone, the second wave was incoming . The second wave was a young maiden group . They were all coming just like the children previously . Beastmen, dwarves, all of the girls were coming .

“I knew something must be happening from the commotion . ” (dwarf girl)

“I already knew from the smell . ” (beast girl)

“What smell? The only smell I can think of is your beast smell . ” (dwarf girl)

“What? Are you trying to pick a fight with me?” (beast girl)

“Rather than fighting why don’t we compete?” (dwarf girl)

“That’s it, my king~ my king~”(beast girl)

At that moment the dwarf girl and beast girl that had a cat ear was trying to hug Yu .

“Aw! It hurts! What the heck? Who’s’ that?”

“Don’t touch my master with your dirty hand . ”

At that time, Marifa was hugging Yu and taking him into her protection from the rest of the girl .

“Who are you telling us what to do?”

“I’m a servant of my master!” (Marifa)

“What? You, a dark elf is a servant of my king?”

The girls around then started to examine Marifa from top to bottom . When a woman fights, it is indeed scary . Wood knew from his many years of experience that it wasn’t a good thing to be involved and its best to turn a blind eye . Even Nina and Lena pretended they saw nothing this time .

“Marifa . ” (Yu)

“Master, please pardon me . Is it okay if I take some time to give this rude beast some discipline?” (Marifa)

“Is that so? Coincidentally there is a wide clearing not far from here . ” (Yu)

“Certainly that was convenient . ” (Marifa)

“Don’t overdo it . ” (Yu)

“Yes master . ” (Marifa)

“Do you really get it?” (Yu)

“Yes master . ” (Marifa)

Yu doesn’t know what to say anymore as he watched Marifa and the girls leaving and disappearing into the depths of the forest . The black wolves, Coro and Orchids also went with Marifa into the forest .

Wood and the rest, however, continued to proceed . Soon the trees had cleared up and they could see some houses . There were also some groups of dwarves that were making a hole on the ground .

One of the dwarves noticed Yu’s presence and came towards him in panic while notifying the rest .

“King, welcome back . Do you have any order for me?”

“Have Russ come? Do you hear something from me?”

“No, I don’t hear anything about it . I was busy making settlements around here . Also, we have prepared a place for you my king . ”

“Is that so? Here let me introduce everyone . This is Lena, Nina and uncle Wood . There is still another dark elf named Marifa however she is now… settling some issues with the girls . ”

Hearing Yu’s word, the men can only put a wry smile .

“Oh, I see . ”

“Don’t worry, if they’re late they can come and help to organize the livestocks . ”

“Mhm, you forgot about us?”

A red haired fairy then tried to clear her throats .

“Why don’t you introduce us too?”

“Are those fairies?”

“I can’t believe this; even the fairies have come to this place . ”

“Ah, is everyone coming?”

The last question even started the red haired fairy since the questioner was Hisui .

“Ah, you’re here! This is going to be fun!”

“Hisui! You seemed to be healthy . ”

“Wha, stop that!”

“Hisui-chan~”

The red haired fairy already moved first and buried herself into Hisui’s bosom and followed by the rest of the fairies .

“Yu-san, you brought everyone here!” (Hisui)

“I can’t do anything about it . Not after Momo spilled the beans . ” (Yu)

“hehehe, I know . ” (Hisui)

“His face is scary but Yu is the best . ” (fairy)

“What did you say?” (Yu)

“Nothing, don’t mind . ” (fairy)

Seeing that Hisui can’t help it but smiled . Of course towards this kind of cute side of Yu, Nina immediately hugged him .

“I’m sorry but please let us through . ”

There were people that was trying to push the crowd, trying to force their way through the beastmen, it was the pale skinned dwarves .

“Our King has come back . ”

The others that just arrived immediately gave a bow to Yu . Yu directed his line of sight towards the pale skinned dwarf group that just arrived .

“King, don’t worry about us since there are clouds so we’re alright . ”

“I’m not worried . Uncle, some of the dwarves here have pale skin and even dark skin . When they are exposed to the sunlight, they show some hypersensitive reaction like a demon race . Do you know something?”

“Ah, I’ve heard about it . Once upon a time I’ve heard this story . Since dwarf couldn’t handle magic, they tried to change this . Since the demon race was good with magic, a cross-race marriage was done in hope to get that power . Although some even turned into an abomination; it’s not like I know a lot about it too . ”

“Ah, as expected of uncle . By the way, this person here is the one who made my weapons and armor . ”

“The one who made armors and weapons for our King . ”

In response towards Yu words, the pale dwarves looked at Wood differently . Of course, the pale dwarves were good at blacksmithing too and had their pride . However, their strong points were at making decorations and accessories . Their glares at Wood were to show their feeling of pride as a fellow craftsman . Especially the pale dwarves that had higher loyalty towards Yu because they were saved from slavery .

(Tl note: so apparently when they saved the dwarf in Namari diary, they saved the whole tribe)

“Alright, so let’s have a feast today . ”

“Ah, the island is still having lots of things to do, having a feast is-“

“No, no . this is normal . After all, our King has come and everyone are looking forward to this since a long time . This time, all races will be attending the feast . ”

“Yes, my King . This will be our first feast on the island . Please don’t refuse . ”

“yes, we will hold a feast . ”

“It’s been a long time since I ate some meat . ”

“Drink, of course, we should have some drinks!”

When one person got excited about it, the rest followed suit and this was something that Yu can’t stop anymore .

“Shiro, I’m sorry we can’t play today . ”
