"The leader has told me to make everyone know that we have a human in our tribe and to not be aggressive with it."
"Okay so, can we leave now?" Amil asked.
"Yeah, I will leave you to your hut, also an order from the leader." Ekrem snorted and went along with them.
They reached near the house, getting many glares around the road but nothing Ekrem couldn't handle. Amil and Emil bid farewell to Ekrem as they went inside.
Amil, Emil, Pumpkin, fluffy, and Zach went inside. The hut was a little more lively this time as pumpkin and fluffy started hissing and squeaking at each other.
"So…you want to tell me why he is here?" Emil asked annoyedly.
"Leader told me to keep him here till the morning and I want it as a comrade or something so it works out"
"Amil, you're doing things you don't understand yet, Humans are evil creatures. Mom even tells us to kill one on-site"
'Uhh…I'm a human' He sighed inwardly. They talked for a while till Emil went in her room.
"hush…finally some privacy.." Amil sat on the floor looking at surprised Zach.
"How do you know our language….sir," Zach asked.
"Drop the sir, just Amil is fine. How I know your language doesn't matter, what matters is I saved you." Zach nodded at the remark and didn't know what more to say.
"So tell me all about human history.."
Zach didn't know why he asked about human history, he had even made the decision to tell the man about all the cities in the human civilization but told the history anyway.
The whole human civilization came to this world out of nowhere about 300 years ago. They named it the transmigration, and apocalypse, First there was no one but small beasts and humans which made them the apex predator here. But about 100 years later of their coming, various intelligent species also transmigrated into the world, Kobolds included. There was a blood bath at that time and billions of various species died throughout the years. Now, no one was the apex predator, everyone trying to get their territory back. The humans made a kingdom, most of the goblins stayed together, and the kobolds just remained individually due to their nature. The beasts in the world just kept coming, some through breeding on the very planet and some just teleported from their planet again and again. The world just kept getting bigger breaking the laws of physics. Many new species just getting into it.
Amil's mind just blew from all the information that he didn't expect at all. But he didn't mind him becoming a Kobold as he had a loving family now and a place to call home. The humans were his own and not at the same time.
"Enough, now tell me if you have any affiliations with humans?"
"Umm…I don't understand"
"I mean any family or something"
"No family and was born in the slums. I was a slave before the kobolds attacked while me and some girls were being shipped to another place. And then here I am with you right now"
Amil nodded and started seeing it to his advantage, if Zach was not treated well by the humans, then he will definitely be happy with him. Good food, good sleep, getting strong, allies, so many basic things he can provide easily.
"Here's how it's going to be, tomorrow, if you provide good information about the humans, he will let you be with me or kill you. And…I am not going to force you neither I did do to the two of them. You will get food, levels and many more things with me. You can decide after observing for the time being."
Zach just nodded vigorously, Good food? Getting strong? These things were like a luxury for him.

"You are really weak…" Amil muttered making Zack smile awkwardly.
"I will have to train you after the meeting tomorrow. But for now, eat this" Amil said while bringing 10 roasted flesh pieces. Zach's eyes shone looking at the food with saliva dripping from his mouth. He was going to pick one piece when suddenly a snake gobbled it, he looked at pumpkin with vengeance as he went for the other one. He ate it and then it was like euphoria in his mouth, the food was so good that he started crying. Pumpkin was going to eat the other 7 pieces but took some pity on the hungry human.
Amin gave him a bed to sleep in the lobby. Zach had only slept on the marble floor in a cage or ground but never on such a comfortable bed. Amil looked at the favourability which was now 50 being satisfied.
The morning came soon, making them wake up and go to the leader's hut, everyone was looking at them but not coldly, just curious. Some of them had even never seen a human.
They went inside fast, the leader at their arrival winded up his work in an instant.
"So, did you get something out of him?"
"Yeah, his name's Zach, a slave in the human society, never even eaten good food before. But he told me some really interesting stuff."
"Do enlighten me too then"
Amil told him everything to which the leader listened without cross-questioning.
"What he said is right, we came here from our own place where only kobolds lived peacefully but the humans coming first is new. We by observation knew that the world was getting bigger, new types of beasts and intelligent beings keep popping up here and there."
Amil nodded in understanding, he somewhat guessed beforehand that some things would be known beforehand.
"This means he's truthful and annoyingly weak"
"I was going to train him after you make your decision. He was never treated well between humans, and I can tell he's not lying due to our mind link."
"Okay, you can keep him but if anything, ever happens, then you are responsible for it, alright?" the leader said with a small smile. "You can remove the chains from him now."
Amil nodded happily and removed the metallic ring around Zach's neck and arms.
"It's the first time in all the years that I have no chains," Zach said while smiling.
"What did he say?" Leader asked curiously.
"That it's the first time in all the years that he is able to remove the collar and chains." Amil exaggerated the words to gain more trust, that went perfectly successful.
They went out directly to the training center.
"Pick a wooden weapon from the weapon's area."
Zach went and searched for a while till his eyes got stuck on the broad sword. He hardened his will and picked the big weapon.
"It's heavy"
"Obviously, now go to the dummy and keep hitting it. I will have to stay with you till you reach level 5 of the skill for your safety and then we will leave."
"Why leve-"
"Urgh…too many questions."
Zach went and started hitting the dummy, he couldn't swing the sword properly at all with being getting left and right with the sword. Amil sighed and kept looking at the lousy swordplay.
