Chapter 192
Chapter 192
"Where are we going now?"
Locus asked with an anxious look and I answered the question with a calm expression.
"I don't know exactly."
What do you mean you don't know?
Don't worry too much, I don't think they have any intention of hurting us.
How can I not worry in this situation
Locus blurted the end of the sentence with a worried look.
Now we were headed deep into the forest surrounded by totaras.
They were not hostile, but that doesnt mean they are welcoming.
I feel like theyre being cautious and guiding us.
Perhaps that's why the tension has not yet disappeared on the faces of the party.
As we moved, in a little awkward atmosphere with Totaras, suddenly I felt another presence of Totars from the front.
After a while, another group of Totaras appeared and approached us.
Wukiii! Wukii!
Wukiii!
Wukikikiii?
Wukii!
The leader of the group who was guiding us and the new leader of the group who appeared talked to each other with a loud cry.
From the atmosphere, the new guy seemed to be hostile to us.
Fortunately, the persuasion of the Totara guiding us worked, and the new Totara opened the way for us to pass.
Even though the new Totara group opened the way, the alertness did not easily disappear from the eyes looking at us.
"Sihyeon, they're not trying to attack us, right?" asked Raccoon grandpa, trembling slightly.
"It's alright. Theyre just a little wary of us."
"Let's trust Sihyeon for now, old man."
"So far, Senior has been right about everything related to beasts. So you don't have to worry."
Hearing the words, Reville and Alfred, Raccoon grandpa calmed down.
Thanks to this, his trembling body calmed down little by little.
As we continued to walk along with the guide, we emerged from among the dense trees to a large vacant lot.
Soon, a surprising landscape began to unfold in the brightened field of view.
"Wow"
"This is"
"Haha!"
Large trees and house-like structures were seen in between.
Under the tree, we could see the Totaras busily moving.
This place, full of an orderly and lively atmosphere, clearly looked like the village where Totaras lived.
-Wukii!
When I was distracted by Totaras Village and slowed down, the leader who was guiding us made a cry as if urging us.
Well, we didn't come on a leisure tour, so we moved while increasing our pace.
At the same time, the eyes looking at the village also moved quickly.
As I was looking around the village, I saw small Totaras.
They seemed like they were newborns, their limbs were all right, and their tail hairs are not yet abundant like others.
The four baby Totaras stood precariously on their toes and watched the village visitors eagerly.
It was so cute that I wanted to run and hug them right away.
We moved into the village and arrived in front of a very big tree.
And inside the tree was a huge wooden structure.
Wukii
Guide Totara gave a signal asking us to wait for a while and ran into the wooden structure in front of us.
We were forced to wait under the watchful eyes of other Totaras.
After a while, Guide Totara, who entered the wooden structure, returned to us with another Totara.
The new guy looked similar to the other Totaras, but with slightly fluffy fur and weak movements.
He seemed to be an old, chief Totara of the Totara village.
Wukiki!
Chief Totara tried to talk to me with a weak cry.
Perhaps because of his age, his words got conveyed much more clearly than the Guide Totara.
I understood the meaning of the cry and answered immediately.
"The fairies said that the Totaras here took mushrooms and herbs randomly. Is that true?"
Wukiiii.
"Ummm"
Raccoon grandpa asked, clinging to me.
"Was it true that they took Spirit's breath?"
"I don't know about Spirit's breath yet, but he agreed on taking the mushrooms and herbs in the forest."
I answered Raccoon grandpa briefly and continued the conversation with Chief Totara again.
"The forest fairies are having a hard time because of you. Can't you hold back a little bit?"
I expected a positive response to the request as the conversation flowed smoothly so far, but I was a little surprised at the unexpectedly strong response.
What did he just say?
Locus asked me this time, unable to contain his curiosity.
They have no intention to stop sweeping the mushrooms and herbs in the forest.
Huh these guys seem like a pain in the ass.
It does seem that way.
Nevertheless, I did not give up and continued the conversation with Chief Totara.
"Why are you being so greedy? You werent like this before, right?."
.
Chief Totara hesitated to answer my question for a while, then opened his mouth again.
Wukii Wukukiii!
"Um Dangerous enemy?"
Wukiii!
An unexpected answer came from Chief Totara.
Chief Totara explained that they could not stop collecting mushrooms and herbs because they had to prepare for a fight with a dangerous enemy.
Who the hell was this dangerous enemy?
At the time when I was about to ask Chief Totara about the enemy, he was referring to
SHRILLL
The spine-chilling sensation and goosebumps spread all over my body.
It was a reaction felt when I instinctively sensed danger.
At first, I suspected that it must be coming from the Totaras, but soon realized that the source wasnt them.
Something more threatening is coming this way.
Is this the dangerous enemy that Chief Totara talked about?
I stopped guessing in my head and warned the party and the Totaras about the danger coming.
"Everyone, get ready for battle. I think dangerous guys are approaching this village. You guys get ready too!"
Unlike the quick-witted party, the Totaras looked blank as to what I meant.
But they soon realized that my warning was true.
WUKIIIIIIIII
WUKIKIKIIIIII
This was because urgent cries flowed from all over the village.
Guide Totara immediately led the pack to the place where the cry rang.
We'll follow them.
We followed the Guide Totara, and as all the Totaras who were monitoring us disappeared, we were able to move without any restrictions.
Wukii Wukiki
Wukiiii Wukukiii
The sound of a cry containing a warning came on gradually.
The residents of Totara Village prepared for the enemy by moving important items, and all the combatants headed outside the village.
Outside the village, it seemed that there was already a battle between Totaras and the intruder.
We came out to the outskirts and quickly identified the intruders who invaded the village.
Intruders moved with their eight legs and spew sticky threads around.
Like squirrels, it was a familiar creature, but I was not happy looking at them.
Locus shouted to everyone as soon as he saw the spiders.
Watch out! It's a Venom spider."
We didn't rush to get closer to the spiders when we heard that they were poisonous.
The Totaras moved much faster than the intruder spiders, but the threads and venom they emitted seemed uncomfortable for them to deal with properly.
Reville who was watching the battle asked me.
"Sihyeon, what are we going to do? If left alone, those Totaras will suffer greatly from the Venom spiders."
As he said, the Totaras were struggling with the Venom spiders.
In addition, the damage seemed to be more fatal because of the weapon called poison.
Let's help the Totaras.
The party got ready to step into the battle hearing my decision.
"Haa.. I never thought I would be saving those ferocious Totaras in my life."
"Sihyeon, you stay behind along with the old man."
"Senior, I'll be right back."
The four men rushed at the Venom spiders with their weapons.
Thanks to them joining, the unfavorable flow of battle got quickly reversed.
The struggling Totaras also got rid of the Venom spiders one by one thanks to our support.
Eventually, most of the people who had invaded the village were killed, and only a few surviving spiders fled back into the forest.
Wukiii! Wukiii!
Wukiii! Wukukiii!
The cry from the mouths of Totaras announced the victory.
The four men in the battle were fortunately unhurt.
Considering the number of Venom spiders, it was a tremendous achievement.
As the Tortaras were conscious of our help, they brought us fruits and clean water that we could eat while resting.
But we couldn't just relax.
Unlike us, who suffered no damage, there were quite a few injuries on the Totaras' side.
In particular, there were so many Totaras who got knocked down by the poison of Venom spiders.
Raccoon grandpa murmured as he looked at the poisoned.
"Tsk tsk. They've been poisoned more than I thought. It'll be dangerous if they don't treat them quickly"
I asked with a worried look when I heard his murmur.
Is it a very dangerous poison?
It's not a very dangerous poison if you take an antidote in time. There are few aftereffects, but if the treatment is delayed like that, it could be life-threatening."
"Can Totaras make an antidote?"
"Seeing the bunch of herbs and mushrooms, they must have prepared something."
While I and Raccoon grandpa talked, a few Totaras came out of nowhere with a ton of herbs and mushrooms.
And they began to pile them up near the poisoned Totaras.
"It looks like there are enough ingredients. Maybe they are going to start treating the injured."
"That's a relief."
As expected, the Totaras started treating the injured.
But we were shocked to see their treatment.
Wuk!Kukii!iiii!
Totaras started pouring herbs and mushrooms into the mouths of the injured.
The wounded Totaras cheeks bulged like a squirrels mouth full of food.
They repeated the action until the mouth got full and they couldn't put in any more.
Huh, was that a cure?
I asked with a confused look to Raccoon grandpa.
"Ugh grandpa? Is that a cure?"
"Idiot! Which part of it seems like a cure?"
I shook my head at Raccoon grandpa's cry.
It seemed more like torture than therapy.
"Holyfu*k! They are using Spirit's breath! Those IDIOTS. It doesn't do anything to cure the poison. Ahhhthat's a precious herb!"
Raccoon grandpa jumped up and down at the Totara's reckless treatment.
I calmed him down and looked at the injured Totaras and the pile of herbs.
I thought it was my turn to step up.
