112 – top people(1)
The black wind beat away his friends who blocked his way with his fists, and then approached Chester, greeted him, and explained the situation.
– indeed. okay.
Chester, who understood the situation, nodded as he accepted the pile of ore given by the black wind.
Even though he said he wanted to investigate whether he was harming the nature of the island, everyone worked together to find the ore he promised with the black wind and bring it to him.
‘You have a good temperament.’
They have lived and maintained their own culture and society on this island.
There are two reactions that such an isolated society sends to the outside world.
curiosity. Or fear of the unknown.
Usually the two reactions are mixed in some proportion, but they didn’t show that.
‘Perhaps the experience of lightly killing a human I met before meeting me… And it must be because of the experience of living as the top predator on this island.’
Fear is something you feel only when it is a threat to you. No human being is afraid of newborn puppies, unless they have a lot of dog trauma.
Chester looked around as he continued to talk to the black wind.
There are people at the top who stare at them silently, while others learn how to communicate between Chester and the Black Wind by mimicking the actions of them and the Black Wind.
Some were looking at themselves with a thoughtful look, while others were looking at Monia or Ant curiously.
‘Anyway, it wasn’t bullshit that Black Wind boasted that he would later become a great warrior.’
Chester had thought of the people at the top in terms of the black wind, but he realized that he was very wrong.
The Black Wind is much bigger than the average top people.
As a result of thinking about the sitting height and estimating it, while the general top people are about 2m 30cm, the black wind has a height of a little over 3m.
‘The black wind is taller than 2m even for a human.’
Among them, the one with a height similar to the black wind was introduced as a ‘little warrior’, but even he was shorter than the black wind.
I think I know why the black wind was arrogant. Even though he is still young, it would be worth it if he was so uniquely tall.
‘Big is not strong. Like that rhinoceros.’
I thought they were all monsters because the black wind was said to be fine even after being hit by a rhinoceros, but maybe the black wind was special in that respect as well.
A being born with a unique body and dragon power, who walks a unique path while demonstrating his majesty since childhood.
People call them such people who cannot be trusted to be the same human beings.
‘Huh, he’s a hero.’
If so, this response could be understood to some extent.
‘They’ll want to raise the black wind into a great warrior. I’d like to be considerate of him to some extent and give him preferential treatment. That’s why I approached it cautiously and overly prepared.’
I purposely wanted to let Chester and Monia know that ‘the black wind is like this’.
To prevent them from taking advantage of or harming the Black Wind.
As evidence of that, there were some who had deliberately taken a threatening attitude a little while ago.
‘Well, that’s probably what the leadership thinks.’
The problem is that the black wind is young. The black wind was unaware of this situation and could not infer the circumstances behind it.
He has been grumbling dissatisfied with the people at the top, saying that he did not believe in himself and acted like this.
The funny thing is, the people at the top were really surprised. Must feel like this.
– The black wind is talking so respectfully!
– Oh My God! Is the island about to perish?!
– After the ceremony, I became mature… I’m glad… … .
This thought appeared in Chester’s eyes as he watched the black wind naturally.
‘What an accident this kid had when he was young.’
Chester was a little worried that he might have made the wrong friend.
I don’t think Chester, who became the captain of the village children when he was young and ran rampant in the mountains, rivers and fields, doesn’t have anything to say.
* * *
While Chester and the Black Wind were saying hello, the ‘Little Old Man’, who would later lead the people at the top, was quietly observing Chester, Monia, and Ant with his friend, the ‘Little Warrior’.
‘smart. I’m sure it is.’
Just being able to communicate is no doubt the brain.
And their home… So was this. All sorts of things they had placed carelessly, as if they were nothing, looked like treasures hiding unknown secrets that the little old man couldn’t recognize.
‘The bar-zoo must have had great value too! The things here definitely have greater value!’
So, sound trades are always welcome. In particular, the little sun that the black wind talked about made even the little elders intrigued.
I wanted to see it myself because there were so many parts that I couldn’t imagine from just the description of the black wind.
– Hey, what do you think?
At the little old man’s question, the little warrior, who might have to compete with the black wind for the little warrior’s seat, looked at Chester with a sullen expression.
– weak.
– That’s right, compared to you, I’m weak. I’m not asking compared to you.
– weak.
– Hey, don’t force yourself. Snakes are poisonous too.
Snakes are also poisonous.
As a proverb passed down among the people at the top, it is said to look at the hidden strengths of the other person rather than looking only at one side.
Snakes are incomparably weaker than the people of the top, but they are equipped with a weapon that they do not have, poison, and can bite and kill an unwary child.
When they become adults, their skin and fur become thicker, so snake teeth don’t stick through.
For reference, the snake in this proverb is the snake upstairs whose body length must be measured in meters.
-I know that you care about the black wind, and I know that if the black wind brings a big advantage with this, you will become a small warrior candidate at once and you will be in trouble. But whatever the reason, it’s a job entrusted to you by an old man.
– … … right.
The little warrior nodded and looked at Chester again.
– Then say this. strong.
– Five?
– I’m not talking about physical strength, I’m talking about biological strength.
The little warrior looked around.
– I looked around on my way here, but I don’t see any signs of the creature that created the area. It is said that the author is holding all the vast areas around here.
– right.
– And that skin he’s wearing looks like a bear’s skin, and if he can catch a bear downstairs, he can be called a strong enough warrior.
– Ugh. And again?
– The technology is diverse. He wears the skins of other animals for his hairless body, and makes fangs and claws for himself, which he carries with him. In addition, they have the ability to hunt prey without moving themselves.
The little warrior looked back briefly and recited Chester’s strengths he had discovered, then sighed and said:
– The leather is thin. no hair It has neither fangs nor claws. The body is also weak. But still, it is clearly a strong creature and a strong warrior.
The little warrior nodded.
– Do you like it.
At the honest evaluation, the little elder started giggling.
– I like it too. There are many of their skills that we don’t need, but many of them are helpful to us. want to have.
The little elder has to rule over the top people and lead them in the right direction, and the little warrior has to lead and manage the warriors to feed the top people.
That’s why the two quickly saw the benefits they could reap from connecting with Chester.
– To be honest, that mindless black wind managed to make a deal with them.
– hehehe. that’s right. I have grown a lot through the ceremony. … … And yes. In order to have a good relationship, you have to know whether it’s good or not deep in your heart.
The little old man gave a signal to the young head carrying him.
There is one adult hairdo, but even the smallest elder could not pamper an older and more experienced adult hairdo.
As the baby’s head approached at the signal, the little old man looked at the water that the baby’s head had turned into a beast brought to a large leaf.
After carefully sniffing it, he nodded his head realizing that the water to become a beast was properly completed.
– It’s okay. Well made. Well managed.
– thank you!
The little old man was introduced to each of the top people by the black wind and looked at Chester and Monia as they greeted them.
– That violent black wind will turn into a crybaby if you drink this. what about them
