Zenma apologizes to her brother, and he gets to see that she has calmed down and shows to be serious about that acting out behavior.
"It's fine, just please leave the elf alone. There is something about him that isn't right. A need for further conflict is best to leave it be." He said with bits of worry.
"But Sollix what he has done to me and made you do just to save me that a son of the chief shouldn't have to do in that way even more on how the daughter was beaten by that same elf," Zenma says taking a look at the other trolls getting the clear understanding to how the trolls are reacting on the ending.
"I don't care if it doesn't matter to me what the others are going to think about this, just glad that my sister is alive." Zenma couldn't help but be happy about hearing that from her brother.
At the time, the trolls start to disband where there is no point in hanging around.
"Come, let's get you fixed up after what you went through," Sollix said.
"Fuck you this is nothing to me that I can't endure brother," Zenma said putting on a brave face, but her brother took a look at that broken arm no doubt to be painful leaving it as is.
"Still pretending and letting go, sister."

[The Great Hall]
Someone among the people inside asked such a question that no one seemed to recognize this vice.
"Who is the one to ask for a reward, step forward, and show yourself." Chief Borgare's advisor says with a firm tone.
"Right here, I was the one to ask, seeming that it is a fair thing if you require help to get rid of a demon problem." The person makes way while walking forward passing those who stand out the way.
This was an older gentleman to be around his 30s to near 40s. He has deep-set tangerine-colored eyes. His fine, straight, ebony hair is neck-length and is worn in a utilitarian style. He is short and has an angular build. His skin is china-white. On the left side, there is a sword attached to that waist by the normal looking close he was wearing.
He wasn't alone as four other fingers Tage along the way, standing behind him for everyone's eyes to stare.
There was a male half-elf, He had round black eyes that were like two pieces of obsidian. There was no hair on his head since it was completely clean in its balding form. He had, in one hand, a staff showing that this person is someone that can use magic. The clothing this guy was wearing looked a bit expensive.
A male dwarf with brown hair and a full beard along with pale skin. On the sides of this one waist, two daggers are hanging on each side. There was also a large crossbow attached to the back of this short person wearing just about leather armor with a cloak hood.
Female Orc with a normal muscular body like a male orc where there are barely healing scars here and there to see on the body since wearing animal hide that covers the top chest area and the lower part. She has dark gray hair and brown eyes. Carry in one hand is an orc carver sword.
"I don't know who you are or those of you strangers who care to introduce yourself to all here." Borgare is curious about this unknown group.
"Sure the names Rey, me, Scott the half-elven, Tokdag the dwarf, and Morn our Orc friend. We are a band of freelance mercenaries for hire." The man introduced himself and the crew for all to know.
"And what brings such people of your work up here in the northlands." Borgare sees what this guy has to say about that.
"Honestly, with what we do for a living, it's pretty simple coming here. It was just an idea to travel into this distraction randomly. Finding a job isn't that hard for what we can offer to the client." Rey says.
He takes a few steps, getting close to the two bodies, and looks down on them at the sight of the open chest seeing inside of the bodies."I say you can use our assistance on the demon and whoever is holding control over the creature.
"Yes, but not without a price first, is that it." The advisor said not to forget they are people who do this for free.
"Well, of course there is a price. That is why I ask if there is a reward to be offered if we were to find take care of this for you northerner people unless there is no need and believe this can be done by your own hands." He didn't seem to be trying hard to get the chief of this settlement to hire them.
"What is the price you are asking for to remove this trouble from our homes," Borgare asks Rey, having a gut feeling it is not going to be what the man is going to like.
Rey didn't give a straight answer right away since walking to his companions speaking with them on the matter to ensure no one else listened in on.
"Have seen these people before Lorthr around our settlement." Paul took the chance to speak to his friend about the mercenaries.
"No, most likely, they have arrived here and come to the great hall when seeing others do so."
"It mixes a bunch to see for the first time together. Well, the Orc and dwarf aren't anything special. They are scattered around the north. Hell, mostly the dwarf people live deep into the northern mountains, yet the half-elves don't see this breed a lot outside here." Paul said, sounding like someone seeing one for the first time.
"Half-elves aren't that rare; there have been a few that have been spotted around the land," Lorthr tells Paul when he passes by a very few traveling the north a time ago.
They are the only kind of elves you can come across in the north at random times, being the creatures that have both the parts of humans and elves. Unusual such a living being would look more like a human, yet the ears will always show the other half.
"What do you think about how much is going to be asked?"

[Somewhere in the forest]
"I don't think you're going to get away with what you did to the chief children. He is not going to find this pleasing when it is known." Ekon tells Xalroz to give him a warning of what will come when the troll chief returns.
"Am I to fear from my life what can that old troll do to me that his daughter already tried? Tell me to think he can stand a chance against me in a fight." Xalroz asks as he lays back against a random tree after distancing himself away from the troll village.
Not alone, as the troll that was placed to watch over him followed behind finding Xalroz resting at the time.
"It is wrong for me to say, but I believe you would be the one standing and the chief lies defeated."
