My Magic Age

During the period after I left Old Kuru, I felt that Kuz was like a dry sponge thrown into the basin. He was absorbing moisture from the outside world at a terrifying speed, and he was growing rapidly. In the past, he felt more like a big child, but now I see him sitting firmly on the neck of the Yagui beast, leading the female orcs from the Laitu tribe to hunt enough food in the northern wilderness, and then climbed over Ye Lian Mountains took her in an orderly manner They marched towards Gurudin. No matter how anxious he was at the moment, it never showed on his face. He began to become more and more mature. It was said that the fourteen-year-old orc could participate in the season of spring and summer. It's a coming-of-age ceremony, and Kurtz is about to become an adult.

He sat next to me, lowered his head and used a slightly longer dead branch to reach under the stove, and straightened the somewhat crooked fire-gathering scroll. Katarina squatted beside the iron pot and added water to it. Perhaps Qi Ge had changed the formula of the moonlight ink. The flame of the fire-gathering scroll became even hotter, and the water made a sizzling sound when it was poured onto the edge of the pot.

This pot is not very big and can only hold a dozen bowls if it is used to cook soup. The beast girls sat around the stove, quietly waiting for a bowl of soup. Over the past few days, the female orcs in the Laitu tribe have long been accustomed to our luxurious use of magic scrolls to cook soup. They waited quietly aside, and the female orcs sitting in front would take out some of their cooked meat in advance. , cut the meat into cubes with a knife, put it into the soup pot, piled with washed wild vegetables on the side, just waiting for the soup pot to open and put it in, a pot of delicious beef and wild vegetable soup was made.

This was the same even when they were in Yelian Mountain. In order to supplement enough nutrition, Kuz divided the beast girls into groups of ten. They had to collect wild vegetables after camping and before dinner, and put them into the beef soup pot. They would have as much meat and vegetables as they put in for dinner. The dried meat carried by each person belongs to himself, and it is no longer a pure tribal big pot meal. Every time it is time to eat, the leader of Laitu collects the food on all the orcs and distributes it uniformly. In this way, the beast girls who had been hungry began to know how to save, and slowly and carefully calculated when their beef would be finished. They would pick as many wild vegetables as possible when there were wild vegetables. They would think If you eat up all the wild vegetables, you can at least use beef to survive for a few days, and you will feel more at ease carrying the dried meat on your back.

In this way, even if we cross the steep Yelian Mountains, even if the climbable areas in the valley have been flattened by hungry orcs, and even if the wild vegetable roots are dug out and eaten, there are always blind spots that have not been taken into account. , the beast girls will carefully look for every wild vegetable at this time, because they feel that as long as they dig out one more wild vegetable, they will save themselves a piece of dried meat. In this way, after walking to the western wilderness, Gribaschin was surprised to find that the beast girls only ate less than ten kilograms of the more than forty kilograms of meat each carried on their backs. The old beast man seemed a little silent in Yelian Mountain. , always lowering his head and thinking about his thoughts all day long.

The leader, Laitu, would only get into his tent before dark every day, and work hard with his wives to have a son. Once, when the beast girls were bathing by the river, Laitu suddenly strode to the stream, picked up a young beast girl with a well-proportioned figure and firm and delicate skin, and walked towards his tent. Go, at that moment, the beast girl was shocked, but she saw clearly that it was all After the leader fell, he gritted his teeth and did not stop himself from shouting. He just hugged his chest tightly with panicked hands, tried hard to bend his legs, closed his eyes, held his breath, and waited for that moment to come. Look It was obvious how flustered she was, wanting to struggle and resist but not dared.

The tribe has tribal rules. Women are exchanged for magic antelope skins and livestock. The more beautiful the women, the more valuable they are. They are the private property of the orc warriors. When their men die, unless they choose to pay a large ransom to the tribe, they belong to the tribe's property. At this time, the beast girls of the Laitu tribe belong to Laitu. She was originally the tribe's warrior. Wife, but now she has become an ordinary tribal woman.

Laitu murmured as he walked with the young female orc in his arms: "It seems that you eat small pot rice and eat your heart out. Are you afraid of me? You are all mine. I will try it again after I eat you." There is such a big bag of dried meat on your back. You can really carry it! How much dried meat did you carry on your back in the Beilu Wasteland? Wow, look at your body, it's so well-proportioned and strong, I can't believe you have pretty good physical strength! "

The wives of Laitu carried tents on their backs. In order to maintain the dignity of the leader of Laitu, they could not carry too much dried meat. On the way, they were reserved about their status and did not want to squat on the roadside digging wild vegetables. In this way, the dried meat is consumed in large quantities, and you don't notice it at first. When you find that the dried meat is almost gone, you think of saving, but what's the use?

In fact, our Yagui beast still contained several sacks of dried meat. Even though Qige angrily claimed that she wanted to tear off my ears, she could not replace these sacks of dried meat with the styptic grass she picked. But he has been unable to save face and begged us for help. The tribal chief also always wanted to preserve his last bit of dignity. In the end, he focused on those female orcs who lived frugally, had ample backpacks, were not burdened by orc children, and had acceptable looks and figures.

It stands to reason that these female orcs are his property, and we have no reason to say what he wants to do. But the problem is that he broke the rules, which are very fragile rules that have just been established. Our purpose in formulating this rule is actually very simple, which is to save dried meat as much as possible. But once Raitu does this, he will exploit the beast girls below if he runs out of dried meat. In this case, no one will save food. Even if the meat is saved through hard work, it will end up in the belly of the leader. . So, at this time, I jumped out, blocked Laitu's way, and stared at the naked upper body with big eyes. His strong bronze muscles contained huge raw power. When his eyes glanced at me, he actually had a cup in his mouth. A fierce look.

Laitu is full of hostility towards the human race, which is why he retired to the edge of the Death Swamp and drowned as the leader of a small tribe when he was still in his prime. The murderous eyes at that time really shocked me. I originally thought that we could at least save his life. For a child like me, if I blocked his way, he would not show his dissatisfaction, at least it would save him face. Go ahead and get through it! We found an excuse to rescue the beast girl, and then asked Kuz to explain to him. After giving him some dried meat, how could it be possible for the dignified tribal leader to starve, not to mention that the food we brought was not insufficient. But the look in his eyes almost seemed like he was going to trample me to death, at least that's how I felt at the time.

Although in the end both Kuz and Gribaschin came forward to calm things down, I began to find that as we slowly integrated into this tribe, what we were doing was becoming more and more consistent with the tribal leader Laitu. There was a conflict, a big conflict. Although we felt that the truth was on our side, the beast girls became more and more convinced of us. They were more willing to help Qige collect medicines when they had time, but the dark cloud on Gribaschin's eyebrows, It was getting heavier day by day, and his worries were like a mountain pressing on him.

The leader Laitu has become even more insignificant. Sometimes, he even skips necessary daily inspections. Unless it is necessary to eat every day, it is difficult to see him. He always likes to hide in the tent. We have been holding the fire-gathering scroll, so we can all get together when cooking every day. Sometimes, I secretly whisper to Qige, saying that it is a very happy thing, and helping others is very useful. I feel a sense of accomplishment, and I am a distant clan member of Kulu. I can help if I can, but I don’t know how. The more I help, the more uncomfortable I feel. It seems that something is missing. Qi Ge looked at me with a smile, bit my ear and said to me, "Have you seen those beast girls taking a bath naked? You've already had puberty at such a young age." Hey, I can’t talk to Qige about anything other than magic. In just three sentences, she will definitely talk to me about women. I feel like Qige doesn’t act like a big sister, but more like a girl of the same age as me. child.

Watching the beast girls cut up the meat in an orderly manner and skillfully throw their portions into the soup pot, Katarina kept stirring on the side. The flames of the scroll were very sufficient. After a while, the soup pot was boiling, and the team The beast girl quickly came over and put the prepared fresh wild vegetables into the soup pot. With the constant stirring of the wooden spoon, they turned into green clouds in the soup pot. If the wheat cakes hadn't been eaten long ago, we would have taken out half of the wheat cakes, broken them into pieces, and thrown them into the soup pot. As the aroma wafted up, the team of beast girls would fill up their own bowls of soup. He left quickly, and the next group of beast girls quickly took up their place.

There are many advantages to doing this, it is always easy to count the tribe members every time you make soup. Sometimes, when the fleeing orcs see that our large group is still well-fed and well-fed, someone will sneak into our group and try to get a meal. Even if we see it, we will never say anything, but when making soup, this group of orcs who eat together will be defenseless. They have no fixed team, and they also have no dried meat or wild vegetables. They just I want to eat for a while, but who has extra?

Mayana, the wise man, and the old orc Gribasin sat side by side across from the soup pot. He was a little surprised to see how we cooked the soup together, and he couldn't help nodding in praise. Meyana's wise man is the old orc who gives it to the orc child to distinguish herbs and wild vegetables during the day. He is not an orc shaman with magical power. He is indeed one of the few wise men in Gurudin Town. The wise man In the beast tribe, it means a person with extensive knowledge, and it also means inheriting the civilization of the beast tribe. After cooking twenty pots of wild vegetable broth in a row, the women and children belonging to our tribe were about to finish their meal, and the flames on the scrolls were not seen to have weakened in any way. Meiana pointed to the scroll under the soup pot and asked the old beast about his personality. Libaschin: "Your department has always used magic scrolls to cook food?"

The implicit meaning is very clear, that is, if you have such a luxurious magic scroll, you can buy food in Gurudin Town to survive the famine. Why go to the Beilu Wasteland to risk hunting the one-horned wild wolf?

Gribasin did not hide anything, and told the wise Mayana the whole story.

Both old orcs regarded us as young human traders traveling in the wasteland for the first time, and the caravan consisted of a female magician, a female assassin, and a child who knew how to use a shotgun. During the trip, Met Kurtz and traveled with him. The scrolls we are using now all belong to the female magician Qige, and the purpose of Qige coming to the wasteland is to purchase some magic herbs. A magician naturally needs a large amount of magic herbs to make scrolls.

During this trip, we just happened to meet the Laitu tribe and rescued this group of orcs from the northern foothills wasteland.
