Chapter XXXI

readx;? For Yasen, Jindy's joke was a little too cold, even though it had actually happened. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Fortunately, this kind of joke, just listen to it...

"My lord, tell us the story on the ground!"

Just as Yasin was facing the glow rock above his head and stretching his waist, the dwarf children on the side were huddled around him, pestering him to tell him something on the ground.

For those who have been living underground since birth, everything on the surface is so attractive. In fact, not only children like them, but even adult dwarfs like Kindy or Knight have no experience of going to the surface.

As mentioned before, the sun is unwelcome to most of the subterranean creatures. Over the years, they have become accustomed to life without the sun, and if they suddenly accept the bright light, they will only feel very uncomfortable, and even suffer some damage.

But even so, they are still curious about everything on the ground, it is the nature of gnomes, they are naturally very curious creatures.

"Okay, good..."There's nothing Yasin can do about these little guys. After glancing around and sitting down at a table, Yasin glanced around at the dozen or so children clustered around. "Then I'll tell you another story, well, the story of Snow White and the seven little gnomes..."

Hearing Yasen's promise, those little ones immediately became excited.

However, they also knew that listening to the story required to be quiet, so they didn't need to be reminded by Yasen, and they had already closed their mouths one by one.

Looking at this scene with satisfaction, Yasin coughed dryly and began to tell the story he had adapted.

Snow White, with her seven dwarfs...

"In a distant land, there lived a king and queen, who longed to have a child. So I prayed to the heavens very sincerely. Soon after, the queen gave birth to a lovely little princess, whose skin was as white as snow and her cheeks were as red as apples, and the king and queen named her "Snow White"..."

In fact, there is nothing new in this story, at least there will be many similar stories, and I believe that this is the case in any world.

The problem is, after all, it's an untold story, and at least for the inhabitants of Calmotte, it's a bit of a novelty to put a human princess and seven little gnomes in one story.

So after a while, not only the little ghosts around, but even some adults were attracted to it.

Although these gnomes have lost much of their sense of humor compared to their counterparts on the surface, at least they are still gnomes, and they still maintain their dwarf nature...

"I didn't expect this kid to be quite open..."

Passing by the road, looking at Yasin who was sitting at the table in the distance, Jindi couldn't help but smile.

"This bastard must have been a bard in the past, otherwise there would not have been so many stories in his belly. Compared to Jindi, Knight on the side was more angry.

Obviously, he was still holding a grudge against what happened to him in the tunnel, especially after the team members who passed through the tunnel spread the word.

At least lately, when Knight was out and about, he always felt that the people around him looked at him a little strangely...

―――――― Dividing Line――――――

Glancing at Knight next to him, Jindy shook his head helplessly, not knowing what to say, and finally walked to Yasen's side with Knight.

Yasen, who was talking about the sky, also noticed Jindy and Knight at this time, so he quickly closed his mouth and looked at the two of them. "Why are you two here..."

He hadn't seen these two men in a while since he arrived in the city.

"Why, is there anything strange about the two of us here, big red man..."Compared to Knight, Kindy's attitude towards Yasen was obviously good, and there was a hint of ridicule in his tone.

It's not for nothing that Jindi calls Yasen that.

Whether it is as the only foreigner to enter Calmot in the last one or two hundred years, or the king of stories, Yasin has become a big celebrity in this city.

Even if he is not as popular as when he first arrived in the city, there are still many people pestering him every day.

"Don't make fun of me...", touching his nose, Yasin was a little embarrassed.

"Actually, we came here mainly to ask how you are doing, and if there is anything inconvenient...", Jindi glanced at Yasen and continued to speak. "Although the elders have rejected your request, you are Knight's benefactor after all..."

Hearing Jindi say this, Yasen's face also showed a trace of helplessness.

Upon arrival in Calmote, as Kindy said, they did treat him as a guest. Not only was he sent directly to the hospital, but there were almost no restraints, and it can be said that except for a few confidential places, at least most of the places were open to him -- naturally, the homes of ordinary dwarf residents were impossible, but most of them welcomed him as a guest.

However, in the end, the elders of Calmot refused Yasen's request.

After all, there are routes to the ground, but they overlap with many important routes. If it does leak, it will undoubtedly damage the interests of Carmotte, and may even reveal the true location of the city...

In the Dark Regions, with the exception of powerful races such as the Dark Elves, Grey Dwarves, or Mind Flayers, all races will try to avoid revealing the location of the city, so as not to attract threats...

Yasen is not an unreasonable person, and he is well aware of the other party's concerns, so he did not express dissatisfaction, after all, it is already very good that the other party can take him in.

"There's nothing inconvenient about getting there...", Yasin looked at Jindi. "I just want to know when the house I built will be completed, and there are some ordinary living utensils..."

Needless to say, the house that the gnomes found for Yasin was the one where ordinary dwarves lived, although it was quite large for those gnomes, but it was very narrow for Yasen.

There are also tableware and daily necessities, there are very few outsiders in Calmotte, so all daily necessities are designed according to the volume of the gnome, have you ever seen a dwarf design a bed for himself to use by a dragon?

Just like the story just now, there was no chair in the city for him to sit on, so in the end he had to find a table to sit on.

If there's really anything inconvenient, I'm afraid that's all, of course...

And one more...

It's just this request, but Yasen hesitated for a moment, and it wasn't until even Knight, who had been ignoring it, looked at it, that Yasen asked.

"Jindi, I don't know if you can discuss with the elders, so that I can go out with the people of the exploration group or the merchant group..."

Life in Carmot is peaceful, but the city is not very big, and after the initial novelty has ended, Yasin has gradually begun to miss the free life outside.

I have to say that man is indeed a very cheap creature.

When I was adrift, I missed a stable life.

But if you really want to settle down, you will start to miss the free days again...

Naturally, Yasin didn't want to go back to his old life at all, but being trapped in the city all the time still made him feel constrained.

"Go out with the exploration team..."Hearing Yasen's request, Jindi also hesitated, but looked at him, and finally gritted his teeth. "I can help you with that, but don't get your hopes up..."
