"Come here, Chaerin," general Emilio called out to me while he extended his arm to me, offering me the stick, "take this."
"Okay, okay." I stood up and took the stick from him. Yep, it was just a regular stick we found on the ground while walking all the way from that abandoned well to here.
"I shall begin asking," general Emilio said as he pressed the orc's head deeper into the ground, "the rule is simple. Blink twice for 'yes', and blink thrice for 'no'. Don't do anything besides that. Do you understand?"
The poor orc struggled to look up just to see general Emilio's face, which earned it a painful stomp from the latter.
"Don't make me repeat myself. I asked, do you understand?" General Emilio impatiently asked.
'Grrr..'
The orc slowly blinked its trembling eyes twice, indicating that it understood and agreed to our terms, albeit unwillingly.
"Good. Now answer, are you out here alone?" He questioned while keeping his leg on top of its head.
