"Fine, I'll tell you but first, what did these numbskulls tell you about us?" The leader asked, for some reason she's also looking at me like she's angry, the heck did I do?
"Uh, t-they said, you guys left them because they were stinky and stupid." I said, that's really what Gorn and Scarface said before, so I'm not lying.
Although that seemed to have pissed the female ogre infront of me more, there's even veins bulging on her forehead now!
"Hoh? So that's what they said, huh? I see... So I guess the fact that they sold off all our food to the other tribe for some flimsy wood and dusty clothings was our fault huh?" The leader said followed by the goblin, who I think is Gorn's wife
"And the fact that when monsters attacked our previous hideout they left us to fend for ourselves and hid instead leaving us behind, was also ours, huh?" And again, followed by the kobold lady
"Or maybe the fact that my fiancee ran away, leaving me behind on our wedding day, and being ridiculed as well as being exiled from my village was also my fault, huh?" Dude, Tink, what the fuck? Not cool (●__●)
"So because of that, maybe running away and leaving us females to endure childbirth by ourselves while you goons were running away was also our fault, huh?" Okay....maybe I shouldn't help anymore, maybe? Cuz I think all of this lies in the males, now ( ´¬`)
I looked towards the males who were huddled together on the ground, with my left brow lifted, asking if all this was true...
"We-We didn't know! We didn't know back then, okay? You girls said you wanted a house to live in with your husbands! We didn't have any wood so we had to get some, but since we didn't know how to cut the trees or how to make houses we thought to ask them instead to teach us! We bought some clothes too because we thought you girls would like it, we didn't know they would give us those! We asked them to pack it because we wanted to surprise you!" Scarface said, followed by a look of regret masking each of the ogre's faces. Shit, these guys, I don't know what to call them, stupid or whipped?
"A-And we didn't hide, we ran to where the monsters kept coming from! We wanted to ease attack the leader of those monsters so that they'd run off and leave! It took a long time because there were lots of monsters with them too! By the time we came back to help, everything was already over!" Gorn defended, looking like he's gonna cry anytime soon, the others also looking down to the ground, sadness shrouded them.
"And I didn't want to run away either! Your father wanted me to leave you or else he was gonna exile you! I didn't know that day was OUR wedding!! Your father said you were to be married to the young chief of the neighboring tribe! I didn't wanna see you get married to someone other than me, so I ran! I didn't know he was still gonna exile you! I thought you were better off with someone else, I heard that young chief was kind and handsome, combine that with the fact that he's also leading a tribe, I thought he was the perfect match for you! Definitely not a poor inventor, like me!" Tink said crying.
"And us! We were looking for food back then! We didn't want our children to live without food like us! So we went to work on the neighboring pack! Who knew they lied to us and was actually gonna sell us off as slaves to the humans! Good thing a passing human saved us and killed the slave traders! We took the food and ran back to you girls! But by the time we came back you all were gone! We thought you all left us!" The leader of the lizardmen said, or I think he is, the leader I mean. I really should ask what each of their names are later.
Hearing all this, the females of the other village looked at them, their eyes now instead filled with sadness.
"You could've told us first before you planned to sell off all of our food! AND EVEN BEFORE YOU NEGOTIATED WITH THOSE HOUNDS!!" The leader yelled, her voice cracking a little.
"That's why it was a surprise! We wanted to surprise you girls, because you worked so hard for us! We wanted to do something too! We regret it, okay? I regret seeing you leave!" Scarface said, crying.
Now the camp is filled with monsters ugly crying right now and here I am wishing I had popcorn.
I now look towards the trolls who came back to see this.
"What's going on?" Boulder asked, his eyes puffy. Holding the hands of the female troll from before.
"Uh, they're fixing misunderstandings I guess?" I said.
"And you two? Did you fix your misunderstanding too?" I asked, I wanna hear it too, give me them gossips!
"Mela, my wife. We lived on the north oart of the forest before, in our own cave, but one day when I came back from hunting, humans were inside the cave and there was a female troll burnt to the ground. I thought that was Mela, so I killed the humans and ran away until I heard about this place from a passing goblin, Gorn. So I followed him and observed this place for awhile. And finally decided to stay." Boulder said, sniffing.
"Thank you for allowing my husband in your village. Back then, when my husband was hunting for food, I evolved, it was probably because he kept feeding me the strong monsters he defeated, I learned the skill [Doppleganger] back then, it makes a body double of myself, same skills, same magic, same strength, everything. I left it as decoy but I came across a strong monster while running and was injured, when I finally went outside and went back to the cave, only the rotting remains of the humans were left. I searched for him ever since." Mela, the wife of Boulder said.
Dang, the life of these guys feel like something straight from a movie!
"Okay! So that means everyones settled now right?" I yelled, gathering their attention. Some are hugging, some are kissing, some are crying, it was chaotic.
"Now let's talk about which part of this clearing you guys will be assigned to live in!" Because I really don't wanna hear anything I shouldn't when these guys go back to their houses tonight!
