Chapter 7 - 「Disgusting awful humans...」(2)

「And I am not a child! I am 17 years old! 」

The 'child' waved their cute little arms around wildly as she said this, And seemed as if they are angry, If they were to be a dragon they would've blew the woman into flames and feed her burned corpse to the folk of the village.

The blonde woman was startled as she stared at them.

The person was a bit shorter than she, Not by a bit but as tall as her waist. 'A loli?' she wanted to laugh she have encountered a dwarf she wanted to laugh her buttocks off but it'd be rude of her to laugh about a person's height.

The man who was silently following them looked back at the sky the sun had already come down from the sky to sleep and now the bright moon rests in its place. He was confused about why they stopped suddenly walking.

It was a bit difficult to see but the moonlight helped him see a bit he's a bit short-sighted after he had a terrible accident a few years ago.

「Come on Edward! you'll become food to whatever comes out at night!」 Said the blonde woman to the athletic man whose name seems to be 'Edward'.

He looked back at them and realized there in front of a treehouse 'When. . .?'

「Hurry!」

Edward quickly climbed up the tree he couldn't spot the ladder so he had to get up there somehow.

Just in time, they heard footsteps walkabout and the crunching of leaves underneath each footstep that is carried, They spotted someone walking around in circles. It looked like a little dwarf but creepier and horrifying, Looks like a goblin?

Edward never imagined them to look like that.

「That's a mare*¹, not a goblin but it's completely harmless to you unless your sleeping.」 Said the person in tattered clothing, speaking in a quiet voice which encourages them to do the same.

「Oh 」

4 days passed by quickly there the first night wasn't so bad but the mare keeps trying to get in whenever they were sleeping as if it could sense that. They didn't see any other creatures of the night because there deep down in a forest of trees. And they're not too far from the seaside.
