Daisy said, "You..." She did not say the next sentence for a long time.
She simply drew the straw curtain, then disappeared from Lin Lei's line of sight.
Lin Lei was startled.
This was the first time he had chatted with someone for so long since he transmigrated.
Tullius did not count as the conversation between an employee and the boss did not count as chatting at all.
In other words, he was nearly suffocating from the lack of interactions.
He shouted at Daisy's room for a while, but he did not get a response.
He was so anxious that he was scratching his ears and cheeks while rummaging through his little room. After lifting up the bedsheets, Lin Lei's eyes lit up.
This was a room prepared for prisoners, but the bed given to them was woven, which was even better than the one Lin Lei had used in the tribe.
Lin Lei simply pulled out the mattress and cut it up with his fingernails.
After the Fox's Assault ended, although his claws were no longer extended, his fingernails were much harder than before.
He used the origami technique that he had practiced during his school days when he was bored in class and finished it in no time.
After finishing the handiwork, Lin Lei found two sandals from under the bed. He picked one up and threw it toward Daisy's room.
Thud!
The wooden sandal was very heavy, and it made a loud noise when it hit Daisy's straw curtain.
The curtain was pulled open roughly, revealing Daisy's angry face.
"What are you doing?"
Lin Lei raised the rose made from the straw mattress in his hand, his smile as beautiful as a flower.
"I'm sorry. This is my gift to you."
Daisy was completely stupefied by Lin Lei's actions.
What was this?
Ever since she was disfigured, this was the first time someone had sent her flowers, even though they were made of straw.
In addition, Lin Lei's rather outstanding face reminded her of the fact that she was a woman.
Daisy did not say anything else after Lin Lei called out to her, but she did not pull the curtains and leave either. Lin Lei knew that there was a chance, so he hurriedly said, "Wait a moment."
As he spoke, he took out a straw and tied the rose to his other sandal.
"Catch!"
Daisy was a bit flustered as she accepted the sandal. Only now did Lin Lei put his palms together and say to Daisy, "I'm really sorry, but you've already accepted my gift, so please forgive me."
Daisy rubbed the sandal for a while before saying, "Alright then."
"Um, let's chat for a bit longer."
"Alright, but we can't talk about the gods anymore!" Daisy nodded.
For a moment, Lin Lei did not understand what Daisy was saying. After thinking for a while, he finally understood. It turned out that Daisy had not been angry at him for showing her his d*ck but rather because he had talked about the gods.
This settled everything. Lin Lei did not have any intention of talking about that topic, so the two began to chat face-to-face.
It had not been long since Lin Lei transmigrated, so he did not know much about his tribe. He did not say much either. All he did was listen to Daisy's stories about her home.
The stories usually started with a group of bandits coming, and then she got on her horse to kill the bandits. Finally, the bandits' heads were brought back to the tribe to build a pyramid of skulls.
The only difference in the stories was the identity and race of the bandits. Goblin bandits were the most common, followed by ogre bandits, and then Halhaza's slave-hunting team.
Lin Lei could not help but sigh in amazement at the vile environment in Satya.
"That sounds really tough. Why didn't you move to another place to live?"
Hearing Lin Lei's words, Daisy glanced at him. "A fool who has never seen the magnificence of Satya would think so.
"The fact that it's robbed so much proves how precious Satya is."
'No, it's probably because those unruly people come from poor mountains and turbulent rivers.'
Lin Lei suppressed his own desire to ridicule her. No wonder these people's worldviews were so twisted, given such a vile way of living.
"That's true," he added. "Our tribe is also so precious that it attracted the plundering of the Talantum people."
In the end, Lin Lei did not expect that his words would actually attract Daisy's ridicule. "It's only because you're an orc. Your tribe is not precious."
Lin Lei could not accept such blatant racial discrimination. "What do you mean by saying that it's only because I'm an orc?"
"You orcs really have no self-awareness." Daisy rolled her eyes. "Back when you dominated the world, you bullied many other races.
"If I didn't come to Talantum, I would have thought your kind was extinct."
Lin Lei was at a loss for words. He truly had not imagined that the orcs' reputation would be so terrible. Even so, he straightened his neck and said, "You elves don't have a good reputation either, do you?"
Daisy picked up her sandals and threw them at Lin Lei. "I've already said that I'm not an elf! I'm from Satya!"
Lin Lei did not even look at her as he caught the slipper. This caused a hint of curiosity to flash through Daisy's eyes.
"Huh, your reaction..."
Lin Lei himself did not even realize what he had done. Just now, it was truly an instinctive reaction. He asked, puzzled, "What's wrong with this?"
Daisy stared fixedly at Lin Lei. A moment later, she asked, "You haven't received any warrior training, have you?"
Lin Lei nodded. "I'm a priest. I've never received this sort of training."
"I'm not trying to boast, but in my hometown, I can shoot down an eagle from the sky with a stone. You probably wouldn't be able to catch it.
"I thought you relied on magic. I didn't expect your physical fitness to be so good."
Hearing Daisy's words, Lin Lei suddenly remembered something. He slapped his thigh. "Damn, are there gladiators in the arena who can use magic?"
"Isn't that common sense? You're already in this room and you still don't know this?"
"No." Lin Lei shook his head violently. "I fought one battle and then came here. I really don't know anything about it."
The curiosity in Daisy's eyes was so strong that it could not be dispelled. This orc in front of her had some secrets.
However, she had no intention of probing as the secrets of the gladiators were their lives.
Those without secrets would have died in the arena long ago.
Daisy did not have any intentions of asking, but Lin Lei did.
He had spent so much effort not only because he was bored but also because he wanted to gain some experience in battling.
"Well, Daisy, what if I run into someone who knows magic?" he asked.
His intentions were too obvious, and Daisy's expression instantly turned cold.
"I'd rather die than tell you!"
With that, the straw curtain was pulled down again.
It was not easy for them to reach this stage. How could Lin Lei give up? He called out to Daisy's room.
"Daisy!
"Daisy!"
Not getting a response, Lin Lei threw a pair of sandals toward Daisy's room.
The straw curtain was pulled open again, and Daisy's face was cold. "You motherf*cking...!"
Lin Lei pressed his palms together with a look of shame on his face. "I'm sorry, Daisy~"
These words, coupled with Lin Lei's face, made him look like a little kitten. Daisy felt goosebumps all over her body.
Daisy suddenly put down the straw curtain again, her heart beating rapidly.
Damn it! What was this man doing?
Lin Lei felt rather helpless. He could only continue to speak through the straw curtain. "I was wrong, I was wrong.
"My good Daisy, don't ignore me.
"Just take it as though you pity me and teach me."
