Count Scribe's Tutor

Chapter 56. Into the Desert (5)

Shantam trembles at the proposal to join the herd. Of course. Though I owe you my life, when foreigners tell me to follow you, I'm afraid I'll have to decline.

But he had no choice.

Because now, alongside Ferda, the next great chieftain of the desert tribe, Korut, was waiting. Shantam sighs as if his lips were slightly darker.

“Can I go back to town and get my things?" ”

No, maybe he was just trying to buy time or get away. Ferda nods and nails it firmly.

“Then let's all go together. It's almost dinnertime. ”

“The night in the desert is freezing. A break is wise judgment. ”

Korut, who was next to me, fought back.

Then the rabbit sweats and warriors stood up and said.

“If H'Korut will find the village, it's an honor for the clan! ”

“We'll walk you through it. ”

The group follows the rhythm of the rabbit sweat, listening to a resounding shout.

It wasn't that far away, so I didn't really get on Kwai 'an. As I walked over the sand dunes for more than a few minutes, I saw wooden and white tents from a distance. It was a termite village.

A fierce warrior stands guard near the town entrance. If it is the way it is, you will be able to enter after completing a difficult process. But Ferda had a nice pass called Coruthe.

And the pass was brilliantly completed for him.

“The termite chieftain, Badezan, greets the descendant of great blood. ”

The chieftain knelt on his knees, hanging from his white beard.

Then the other clans fell to the ground naturally. With all due respect, Korut nods quietly.

“Thank you for your enthusiastic hospitality, Badezan. ”

“We are the only ones who will gloat. ”

After answering politely, the chieftain looked up.

His gaze then turned to Ferda and Silvan.

“By the way, Hkorut. ”

“Hmm? What? ”

“With all due respect, may I ask why you are with those who are not brothers? ”

Seeing as you keep asking questions, you seem to be a little bothered. As Ferda smiles, Korut opens his mouth.

“Well, if I'm going to explain, it's going to be a little longer. Are you okay? ”

“Of course. Even if it lasts for three days and three nights, I'll listen. ”

The chieftain glances at the Korut with a sparkling look in his eyes.

Korut clears his throat for a moment, then starts talking. Later, in his mouth came the foreign nationality suffered by the desert tribe and the discovery of Earl Archdut in order to solve this problem.

“· · · · · · · That's how I got here. ”

Korut's story had to end when the sun went down and the night came.

Then the chieftain shouted with surprised eyes like a rabbit.

“Well, is that true? ”

“Yes. Above all, my naked eyes are powerful enough to turn a horde of Akashas into ashes. He had two great warriors with him. ”

The great warrior and the great warrior must be Ferda and Tervand.

The chief exclaimed in a heartfelt voice.

“Ah! You solve the tribal crisis so brilliantly." You are also the progeny of great blood. ”

I don't know if he's really doing this or not, but the chief pounded the floor with his head.

“So I have a favor to ask you. ”

“Just say whatever you want. I'll do it at my own risk. ”

The chieftain looks up and answers with a splendid face.

As soon as the consent fell, Korut opened his mouth straight away.

“I'd like to take a man named Shantam. ”

“· · · · · · Did you say Shantam, now? ”

The chief's shoulders flinch momentarily.

A moment later, the chief sighs and speaks.

“If you need a warrior, I'd recommend someone else. Shantam has not yet received the warrior's name, so he lacks many brothers. ”

“Badezan.”

At that time, Korut called out to the chieftain with a heavy voice.

Korut, who stopped answering, blinked his eyes in horror.

“I didn't want Shantham, I didn't want warriors. ”

The chief's eyes tremble, frightened at the end of Korut's words. Then he realized his mistake.

“I'm sorry, I overstepped. ”

A chieftain who choked on an elongated head.

After a while, he nods happily.

“You're welcome to take him. Please feel free to write. ”

“Thank you for asking so much. ”

“No, I'm sorry I couldn't send more warriors. ”

The chieftain's answer concludes the conversation.

The chief's words, which he thought were over, continue as Korut turns around.

“I've prepared a small banquet for Hkorut. ”

“Banquet?! ”

The reality of the conversation with Isha flashes.

For him, the banquet was full of delicious food.

“Yes, it's nothing compared to a great feast, but I'm prepared. If you enjoy it as much as you want, it will be the glory of the clan. ”

The chief bows once more.

The termites' banquet started with a signal.

* * *

All the instruments that were stuck in the town shed protrude out.

The musicians played an exciting song, and Muhee lifted the excitement of the banquet with a dazzling dance. In a loud atmosphere, the realm was tasting the food in front of its eyes one by one.

Then suddenly, I stopped in front of a dish.

“Wow, this is really good. ”

A dish of meat discarded in brown seasoning. The reality of eating the dish little by little, sat down, and began to eat only that dish.

“I don't think it's a duck. What is it? ”

More meat than chicken. And it tastes better than duck. Moreover, my hands went limp, mixed well with sweet and salty seasoning.

At that time, Korut raised his thumb, which was wandering around.

“Milawi meat. I admit, it tastes good. ”

“Mylar? What is that? ”

“Desert tribe livestock. A distant cousin of a duck. ”

Tervand added a supplementary explanation.

As if he understood, he nodded and focused on eating again.

As you can imagine, the meat of Milawi soon ran out. In fact, he asked again, "What a pity that I couldn't eat more."

“Will the Earl eat this later? ”

“I'm afraid I've never seen you in the kingdom. ”

As Tervand shakes his head, his face quickly darkens. Tervand's ears widen, and Tervand hastily speaks.

“Don't worry too much. Didn't Ferda say that last time? that they would move the desert tribes near their borders in the future. ”

The word followed, and his eyes opened wide.

If the desert tribes settled in the Earl's decree, the meat of Milawi would be distributed as well. Then one day you'll be able to eat Milawi meat in the white paper.

Realizing this, my eyes sparkled.

Meanwhile, Ferda, who was watching this from afar, smiled lightly. I'm glad you're enjoying the banquet in your own way. By the time I thought about it, I suddenly felt a wit behind me.

After a while, a young man with a familiar face appeared.

It was a shantam. He comes to you with a small bottle of wine, and he sits next to Ferda the chief, shaking it.

“How about a drink? ”

“Is this desert liquor? ”

“Yes, it's called the dew of Azran. ”

Seems like a good drink after all. Ferda picks up the glass without saying. When the glass was filled with yellow light, I took a single sip without hesitation.

Then, Shantam added a blunt word.

“A drink made from the fruit of a vegetable monster living on a desert hill. ”

It means a drink soaked in monsters. But Ferda didn't spit or frown. Rather, I even tasted the flavor by rolling the wine in my mouth with my tongue.

“Sweeter than I thought. ”

The muttering surprised Shantam.

But for Ferda, this was nothing. When I was a hunter, I used to feed on monsters for a living. It's like drinking.

“One more drink. ”

I quickly filled up my drink as I took out an empty glass. I even smelled the aroma this time, then took a sip. It's so sweet that I don't even need to settle down. When I was sipping tobacco with a bad idea.

“You may have heard of me, chieftain, but I did not receive the name of the warrior. ”

A sudden murmur comes from Shantam's mouth.

“I'm not good at fighting, I'm weak, I can't even go through the trials. It's not that they have any special talent, but it's called a community favorite. The only thing that understands me is my old, old, old, rabbit sweat. ”

He said something, and it was about his past.

Shantam turns his head and asks, facing Ferda.

“Why on earth would you take me? ”

The answer didn't come right back.

It was because Ferda was relaxing drinking half the alcohol. After the last drop, he gazes over the west side of the stars.

“A hundred years from now. Desert tribes once crossed the border. ”

Suddenly, Ferda speaks of the past.

Shantam listens to him silently.

“The erl was brutally trampled, and without the support of the kingdom, it was almost too dangerous to leave the castle. Why do you think the Desert Tribe was able to record the winning streak? ”

“There were many skilled warriors, including the Great Warrior. ”

“Not an answer that anyone can answer. Tell me what you think. ”

Ferda stops speaking to Shantam and looks him in the eye.

Shantam swallowed his thirsty saliva as if it was piercing his insides. A moment later, he opens his mouth with a short sigh.

“· · · · · · · Records show that the expedition had a competent bookkeeper at the time. It doesn't even have a name on it, but it also shows that it won big and small victories. ”

Shantam raises his head.

“You see, we are a warrior-centric tribe. So there's hardly ever a single journal in the record. Except for a hundred years ago, it was written in the book of the great triumph. ”

After a long answer, Ferda smiled.

As if his words were the right answer.

“The book of the history of the kingdom says: Ten years before the war, he entered the kingdom and gathered all kinds of information. They say they've observed enough enemies and analyzed them to win. ”

Ferda smiled at my mouth and said,

“Like H'Korut said, we came here to settle the desert defect. At the heart of the heretic are the monsters you call Acacia. And I haven't seen anyone as profound as you about Akasha. ”

Fear of Ferda's end.

It wasn't until Shantam realized what he was trying to say. He was somewhat disappointed.

“If you simply want Akasha's information, I'll give you the notebook I've written down for you. Then I don't need to follow. ”

“No, I want more. ”

Ferda shakes her head and speaks with a serious tone.

“Akasha is nothing but a precursor to disaster. ”

“Yes? What's that? ”

“In the future, we will face more terrible disasters than Akasha. So we need guys like you. Only if you can analyze your opponents quickly will you have a better chance of winning. ”

I only shut my mouth after spilling my words like a quickfire.

Shantam bites his lips tightly. Then I asked with a shaking look in my eyes.

“· · · · · · What the hell do you know? ”

“Come with me if you're curious. And find out. ”

Ferda reaches out, smiling. As if to ask for a handshake. But Shantam doesn't hold hands immediately. The second sigh mutters in a small voice.

“Actually, I met Rabbit Sweat before I came here. ”

Representative of Warriors, including Shantam.

The representative's name was definitely Rabbit Sweat. When Ferda remembers, Shantam's words become bold.

“As soon as I met him, he said, Follow you. Spread your wings alongside those who recognize my talents. ”

“So what are you going to do? ”

Shantam smiles silently as he answers the next question.

Then you hold Ferda's hand.

“Shantam of the termites. ”

Ferda smiles brightly, looking at her bright eyes.

“Ferda Inoside. He is the home teacher of the next Erl Archdut. ”

“Yes, please. Homeroom teacher? ”

Shantam opened his eyes wide.

Ferda tilts her head.

“Why? Is there a problem? ”

“No, why is the teacher in a place like this · · · · · · · · · ·. ”

“Beyond trivial matters, I'll take good care of you. ”

Ferda shakes her hand, smiling.

That way, Shantham joins the group with a long face.
