Seeing that Merlin brought back such a big and dirty "bear", Sheldon was really frightened. However, he soon realized that Merlin had apparently brought a bear orc from outside, and he tentatively brought the unruly lord into his house.

"Merlin, where the hell did you get this guy from......" Sheldon said as soon as Neem was seated on the stool, and immediately dragged Merlin into the cubicle, his face ugly.

"This is research material for the biology class at school, and the teacher thought he was dead, and we found him at the garbage dump." Merlin said, "It turned out that he was dying, and he was fed a little food, and he said he could be our servant, and I felt sorry for him, so I brought him back." "Although most of them are not true, they are not far from the truth.

"Oh......" Sheldon had a headache, "so you really brought it back...... Oh, my God...... Then you have to promise me that this guy will never tear our house down, or I'll throw him out. ”

"I'll let him try not to wreak havoc at home." Merlin's eyes twinkled, "Mainly, I know him, this is the bear orc we met at the Orc Management Division a few years ago. ”

Sheldon was silent for a short time, then he squeezed out a shallow smile, as if he had just given ten orders to kill his head: "I see the triangle on his chest." However, I still have to warn you that orcs will have estrus every once in a while, especially orcs like him, who will react much more than ordinary orcs. ”

"I see." The solution to the problem is simple, Merlin only needs to make Neem have a sweet dream, and estrus in the dream will not produce any substantial damage at all," his name is Neem, and the rune magic can make plants grow quickly. ”

The two of them briefly discussed what to do next, and the orc in the living room sat quietly in his seat, tired and closed his eyes for him. When the two of them arrived in the living room, they found that Neem had fallen asleep on the stool.

The two sighed, according to the previous plan, Merlin needed to drag Neem to the bathroom to take a shower, this guy definitely had no less than a hundred fleas and ticks on him. With Merlin's masterful skills, Sheldon believes he doesn't need to buy insect repellent water. He needs to train Neem to be a well-trained domestic servant, so that he can save a lot of housework.

Neem was awakened in a daze, and followed Merlin to the bathroom in the corner of the living room to take a bath. Neem had only followed his mother in a cold shower in the river, and the heat on his face frightened him.

"Hmm!" Neem raised his claws to resist the hot and humid moisture, and Merlin immediately broke his hand off, "We...... Are you going to take a bath here? ”

"You stink so much, wash it with hot water to prevent you from catching a cold." As the weather cooled down, and the servant with a cold couldn't work, Merlin pulled him into the bathroom, which contained a lot of things that Neem didn't know before, "The thing like a big basin is a bathtub, and the thing I'm pointing to is a shower, and if you turn the switch, hot water will come out of it." You're too dirty, rinse your body before soaking it. ”

Merlin pointed his finger to the shower, "Stand there." Melia did so, and Merlin twisted the knob at the bottom of the shower, and the steaming hot water poured down and caught the neem off guard.

The bear orc wiped his face vigorously to keep the hot water from seeping into his eyes. The hot water continued to flow into the gaps between the hairs, and the water that flowed to the ground had become black. Merlin took a brush and vigorously brushed the fur of the orc. Neem opened his limbs and realized that he couldn't do anything for Merlin except to do it. obviously said that he wanted to help him do things, but he didn't expect to have to trouble him to do so much. But on second thought, letting the hateful humans do these things for them is also considered to be acquaintance.

"Woo! You've got a lot of bugs! Why is there still shit on the asshole! Disgusting! Merlin disgusted while throwing shower gel on Neem, "Rub it on the hair, the shower gel will bubble, the more bubbles, the cleaner you will be!" ”

"What is a shower gel?" Neem rubbed her hair vigorously, and bubbles poured out instantly.

"It's the thing that makes you clean." Merlin now regretted that his head was hot, and he had been brought into the house.

Merlin took a lot of effort to wash the sludge and feces off Neem's body, and seeing that there were still a lot of swollen ticks hanging from his skin, Merlin snapped his fingers, and a small yellow flower was born in his hand, and he shook the yellow flower, unexpectedly spilling a large area of pollen. The neem nose itched, and he sneezed one after another, and the insects on his body slid down one after another.

"It's amazing!" Neem exclaimed, but shivered a few more times, "I didn't expect there to be so many bugs on my body......" He casually picked up a coin-shaped tick on the ground, pinched it hard, and the black and red blood suddenly burst out.

"Tut-tut...... A swarm of schistosomes! Merlin yawned, the hot and humid environment was drowsy, "Schistosomes are not welcome in our house!" "Although these bugs on the ground are not schistosomes, they are a blood-sucking species called ticks.

Neem stared at the bugs, not expecting that the bugs had already sucked so much blood on their bodies. He remembered what had happened to him in the tribe, and it seemed as if he had become a tick in the eyes of everyone, harmful to all, as if his existence was nothing more than a waste of food for nothing.

The bear beastman rubbed his eyes vigorously, hot water gurgling down, transparent tears dissolving into the water, as if they had never appeared. Years of grievances poured out in a burst of relaxation, like a broken screw knob in a machine, crackling and pouring out. But he knows that crying out loud will only be a waste of time, and he needs to prove his worth in Merlin's house in exchange for a chance to survive.

He didn't want to be an outlier in human society, and he knew that if humans would be excluded from the orc race, he would naturally be excluded from the human race. Orcs are inherently racially superior, and even different orc communities can have conflicts with each other, let alone between humans and orcs.

"What can I do?" When Merlin turned off the water valve, Neem asked. The natural impulse made him shake his body, which made Merlin bitter and was thrown out of water.

"Wow! Oh, my God...... I'm soaking wet! Merlin angrily hung the shower on the shelf, his eyebrows curled, "Get me into the tub!" Also, you bears don't know that you are going to blow dry with tools. ”

Neem probably knew that the place of Merlin's finger was the bathtub, and he stepped into it with a step. The water in the tub was still warm, and the entry of the orcs caused the water level to rise sharply, almost overflowing from the tub. The warm touch returned to Neem's body, and he curled up in the water, recalling how he felt when he was a young boy and slept in his mother's arms.

"It's so hairy, it's almost tangled in the sewer." Merlin cleaned up the hair on the ground, "When you're done, I'll have to take a shower." After that, you have to learn to take a shower and clean up the bathroom by yourself. ”

"Okay." Neem nodded obediently, and his stomach also screamed sincerely, hunger rising with comfort.

"It's strange if you're not hungry!" Merlin said, "My father is cooking in the kitchen, so let's go to the table and eat together." Don't expect you to use cutlery though...... Do you usually eat raw or cooked? ”

"My mother and I have been eating berries mostly since we were young, and occasionally we will bring some bread from you humans." Neem soaked in the bathtub, and her body gradually stretched, "There is very little meat to eat, and my father died while fighting the wolf clan. My mother occasionally caught rabbits, and she would skin them and roast them to eat, which tasted better when roasted. ”

"At war with the wolves? Do you guys fight with each other? ”

"There will be fights between every race, even between different communities of the same race." "Because there is very little food, we don't eat it except for our kindred, and we sometimes eat the flesh of other orcs. ”

"Sounds cruel......" Merlin covered her mouth.

"Don't you humans eat meat too? The meat comes from pigs, cows, and sheep, and according to you, isn't it just as cruel to slaughter and eat? ”

"But pigs, cows and sheep don't think."

"Our fur and flesh will also be present in your shop from time to time, and our totem is the fiery bear, which, according to ancestral traditions, is also the embodiment of wisdom. In our country, the pig-men, the cow-men, and the sheep-people are even bigger than us, and it is extremely difficult to kill any of them without making a sound. ”

"Okay...... According to you, we are indeed cruel. ”

"But in order to survive, we had to do it. When we eat very little, grass roots and bark are our staple food. In the warm season, when there are more fruits, we eat fruits. We also eat bugs, and in the dry season, the bugs in the ground come out, and we dig and eat. ”

"But in our place, we don't think we will eat insects or grass roots...... I didn't notice it before, you seem to be very thin. ”

"My mom and I have been living even better since we came here." Neem pursed his lips and then continued, "Human bread is even better than roasted meat. Although you have killed countless of our compatriots, ...... We don't have to live a life like in the jungle without enough to eat. ”

"So, what happened to you and your mom? Why did you get caught here? ”

"Since we left the Orc Management Division, we've been looking for humans who are willing to take us in. At first we found that there was also a large group of orcs of different races working there, and although the man treated us badly, made us do heavy work, insulted us, and beat us, we were able to eat enough every day, starve to death, and even have money to buy something else to eat. ”

"Also, there are a lot fewer conflicts between different races, and there will be no fights all the time. We even made good friends with a werewolf. But the family was soon taken over by the circus, and after almost half a year of work, we were dismissed, and my mother and I continued to wander here. We have to hide from humans during the day, or we'll be locked in cages. In your human society, we can only count on humans, but if we don't, we will starve to death. ”

"And how the hell did you get to where you got to where you got here?" Merlin said curiously, because Sheldon was the director of the Orc Management Division before, and he also knew that a series of policies issued by his father should not have turned out to be like this......

"It's a damn recruiter...... He lied to us! Neem gritted his teeth, and the hair all over his body exploded, "At that time, we thought we had found another person who could hire us, and that person was going to kill us and sell our flesh and skin!" ”

"How can this be, this is against the law!" Merlin was surprised and said, "Even if you don't have human rights when you don't sign a contract with people, we can't just slaughter orcs ......."

Melia wiped her tears and kept shaking her head: "My mom and I escaped along the fleeing crowd, but my mom was shot in the foot. I couldn't protect my mom, and she pushed me into the fleeing crowd. ”

Merlin asked a question that shouldn't have been asked: "And then?" ”

"They shot my mom in the head."

"Oh......" Merlin felt as if her internal organs were being rubbed by a hand, "you escaped, and then you were caught by the steward, right?" ”

"Hmm...... But they would feed me mush, so that I would not starve to death. I always wanted to get out of the cage, so I tried to destroy the cage while I was on display, but I couldn't break the damn cage anyway......"

"After taking a shower, you can go to the house where you came to eat before." Merlin didn't want to talk any more, he was very uncomfortable.

Nightmare Merlin didn't feel anything: "I didn't expect you to feel uncomfortable. Humans and orcs are essentially no different at all, they are nothing more than boring, deadly beings. ”

Márquez was displeased: "I hope you can shut up at this point." "If he was also in a cage as a test subject, it wouldn't be like they were talking and laughing here.

Outside the door, Sheldon was preparing a meal for the three, and when he saw Merlin soaking wet, he couldn't help but say, "When he finishes washing, you also go take a bath!" What's wrong with you, don't you look very happy? ”

"Neem told me before that his mother was shot to death."

"Why are you asking him that......" Sheldon ran over and took Merlin's little hand, "you should talk to him about things that aren't so unhappy, like delicious food, warm beds, and a bright future, etc., etc., etc., ......etc."

"I'll take a shower later." Merlin thought back to the previous conversation with Neem, and it really didn't feel good.

As an outlier, Merlin's current situation can be described as being in heaven. And as an orc neem, it was too difficult to go all the way.
