Moku couldn't refute Tam's words. Even a woman wearing a sari is still wearing clothes inside. But Nerphyl only covered her naked body with a beautifully folded piece of cloth.
Nerphyl's naked body was exposed to the sun and seemed to glow because of her smooth white skin. Unlike the usual sylph, Nerphyl does not have scales that cover the intimate parts of her body. So now Moku can see every nook and cranny of Nerphyl's body.
Two white mountains with pink hills standing tall above them looked so springy and ravishing. Her slender stomach with a fairly large hip circumference, makes people who see it think about how Nerphyl works out to maintain her body.
For the bottom...
Nerphyl's body doesn't seem to have the slightest hair on it. The pink valley looks so interesting to explore. Her pores look so small that it makes her skin looks so smooth and clean.
Moku gulped loudly.
"What are you saying? My scale came off after refining my queen's blood. My body is proof of purity!" Nerphyl didn't accept Tam's words.
Her puff chest swayed like she wanted to fight gravity. Her hands holding her waist made her hips twist like a snake.
Moku once heard a story from a friend who had a son who fell in love with his own figurine. Moku doesn't understand why this is happening and thinks his friend's son has gone mad or has a sexual disorder.
But now he understood the feelings of his friend's son. Looking at Nerphyl's naked body which was only as big as a palm, Moku had the urge to lick it and sucked Nerphyl in his mouth.
'I'm sorry my friend's son, I insulted you and thought you were crazy. I just have no knowledge of the wider world' Moku cursed himself.
"Still not justifying yourself suddenly naked! You Nympho!" Tam cursed Nerphyl's vulgar body with envy in her heart.
"Huh?? I'm naked because Moku wants to see my mother's painting!! Who are you calling Nympho??!!!" Nerphyl is angry.
"Painting?" Moku is confused.
"Yes, this is the painting" Nerphyl handed her clothes to Moku.
Moku adjusted the position of his hands so that he could carry Nezena's body with one hand. With his big and strong body, Nezena's body is too small and light to be carried with two hands.
Moku took Nerphyl's clothes with one hand and unfolded them. An image containing strange symbols and circles was painted on it.
"Moku, I want to sleep. Wake me up when we arrive. I don't want this perverted goblin to look at my body with a look like it wants to kill" Nerphyl snorted at Tam. Then she went into the slit of Nezena's shirt, made it a blanket, and closed her eyes.
Seeing Nerphyl who had been hiding in Nezena's clothes, Moku returned his focus to the painting in his hand. There are some symbols that Moku doesn't recognize but more symbols that Moku is very familiar with because these symbols were the carvings he had seen in Datuak nan Sabatang's house and on the evolution gate.
The walking duck symbol looks like a flock of ducks moving from a large circle to a small circle. On their backs seemed to carry a symbol of something similar to like blood.
The bamboo shoots tip symbol is drawn on the inner circle of the large circle. The tip of the bamboo seemed to be piercing a symbol that looked like a butterfly.
The bethel leaf symbol is drawn on the outer circle of the large circle. They line up in a circle and the tips of the leaves face out of the circle with a crown perched on top. In the middle of each leaf is a blue eye symbol.
The fern arch symbol is drawn on the inner circle of the small circle. They seem to be protecting something in the middle of the circle.
The spread nets symbol is drawn on the outer circle of the small circle. They weaved along the lines of the circle and in the middle was a symbol like a closed eye.
Moku repeated all those symbols in his mind.
"If these symbols have the same meaning as what I learned with Datuak Sri Maharajo then the meaning of the walking duck symbol is order, the bamboo shoots tip symbol is usefulness, the betel leaf symbol is thoughts and morals, the fern arch symbol is family, the symbol for fern arch is family, and the spread nets symbol are law.
If the other symbols have the same meaning as their shape. Then this painting would be interpreted to be—"
"Moku! We'll be there soon" Swa cut off Moku's thoughts and announced that they would soon arrive at the Dawnmist Tribe.
"Hmm..." Moku nodded.
"Nerphyl wake up! we will be arriving soon!" Moku wakes up Nerphyl.
"Hmm? Okay.. Have you finished looking at the painting?" Nerphyl got up and came out from the gap in Nezena's shirt.
Her naked body was exposed to light again. Moku for the second time gulped loudly.
"Hmm.. I'm done, thanks this painting is very helpful" Moku handed back the painting which was a piece of cloth to Nerphyl.
"What do you understand from this painting?" Nerphyl received the cloth and re-fitted it into a beautiful dress.
"I'll tell you later during the meeting with all the higher-ups of the monster race. Nezena... Nezena... Wake up we're about to arrive" Moku tried to wake Nezena up but she just let out mumble and kept her eyes closed. Moku just let out a long breath and let Nezena stay asleep on his arm.
They walk out of the tall trees, and the entrance gate of the Dawnmist Tribe camp was in sight.
As they got closer, hundreds of shrieks of Cendet birds sounded so loud that they spread throughout the tribe and Green Caping Hill. The presence of Nezena, Nerphyl, and Tam whose scent is not recognized by the Cendet birds that live in the Dawnmist Tribe, makes them sound the alarm if a stranger approaches.
Moku deliberately didn't cover up the smell of these three girls because he wanted to inform the orcs of his arrival. And sure enough, in less than a few minutes, all the orcs had descended from the Green Caping hill and gathered at the tribe gate.
They were fully armed and ready to defend their tribe. When they saw Moku, Swa, and Laya they breathed a sigh of relief but were disappointed. As usual, the orcs longed to fight with those of equal strength.
Boku, Goku, and Mige came out of the camp to greet them. Hoddurt with his wand followed closely behind. Looks like some goblins have arrived at the Dawnmist Tribe.
"Boku, Goku, Mige I hope my departure beyond the time limit I mentioned doesn't cause you any trouble" Moku said.
"Of course not Ku! We were very surprised when a swarm of goblins came close to the tribe. But fortunately, there was Zalthu who explained that they had joined us" Boku replied.
"It's good that there are no problems. Hoddurt have all the goblins arrived?"
"Not yet. We asked for two days more to move our children and belongings. But some of the goblins had already arrived at the Dawnmist Tribe yesterday afternoon" Hoddurt replied.
"Oh yeah? Where are they? Why haven't I seen a single goblin?" Moku is confused.
"Eeee..." Hoddurt didn't know what to say.
"They wanted to join our training but ended up badly injured and had to be carried on a stretcher to the tent" Goku replied with a bitter smile.
He understood the spirit of the goblins wanting to become stronger. But he didn't understand why they wanted to join orcs' training which was only designed for orcs who have strong bodies and regeneration abilities.
"What?! They're already in practice?! Damn I missed it!" Tam snorted in disappointment.
"Well.. I'll try to design a new training suitable for goblins later. Then.. Nerphyl how about Sylph, when will they arrive?" Moku turned to Nerphyl who was back standing gracefully on his shoulder.
Sometimes Moku marvels at the speed at which Nerphyl changes her face.
"They'll be here soon— ah.. hold on a sec Moku, there's one of the sylphs who sent an emergency.." Nerphyl opened her eyes.
Moku knew that Nerphyl was looking at what the other sylphs were looking at and silently waited for her to finish.
There was a commotion from behind the gathered orc crowd. The voices of the girls speaking clearly made the orcs fall silent.
"Anna.. don't be in a hurry you can hurt the baby in your stomach" Widya said worriedly.
"Anna, Moku isn't going anywhere you don't have to rush" Claire advised worriedly.
Luna and Vivi just smiled bitterly seeing their friend who had always been gloomy for the past two days suddenly excited when she heard that Moku had returned.
They remembered when the Cendet bird squealed the first time when the hordes of goblins came. Anna looked so happy and ran towards the tribe gate like she was doing right now.
Anna ignored the horde of goblins in front of her and her eyes continued to search for the figure of Moku that she missed. It never crossed her mind that Moku would fail or be killed by an enemy like a goblin.
But she returned to the tent with a face full of disappointment and wanted to cry.
This time she ran back towards the tribe gate as if she didn't give up on her previous disappointment.
"Shut the fuck up girls. He said he was only gone for a day or two, it's already the third day! He has to explain where his silly head was taken last night before I cut him off with my sword!" Anna cursed with harsh words but the smile on her lips could not fool her joyous heart.
The orcs paved the way for Anna and the girls.
Anna and Moku finally meet.
Moku stared at Nevare's glittering hazel eyes. The same eyes still smoldering with the same unquenchable fire as the first time he had seen them. Her white hair had extended to her shoulders, her body was very tall with an enlarged belly carrying their child.
Moku didn't understand why he chose this girl, but the longing in his heart didn't go away, and it only have been almost three days.
She wasn't as pretty as Nezena, not as sexy as Claire, and not as elegant as Nerphyl. But somehow Moku felt that this girl was the only 'Nevare' for him.
He had never felt this, not even in his previous life. Sometimes he was confused by this strange feeling in his heart.
So strange,
So confusing,
So warm.
They looked at each other as if there was no other being among them. Just them and the warm feeling in their hearts. Like two puzzles that come together to create a beautiful painting.
Anna felt her heart complete again, a longing smile forming itself on her lips. Then she turned to look at Moku's body, she didn't want Moku to go home injured..
Then her smile froze.
Moku saw Nevare's longed smile froze. Then it turned into a shape that made his heart frighten. The flames smoldering in her glittering hazel eyes turned into magma that erupted with anger.
The handle of the sword she was holding shattered into pieces. With a furious roar, Nevare shouted "YOU DEATH!!!!"
Then furiously she turned around and threw the shattered sword to the ground.
Her furious roar made all those who heard her tremble.
Swa tried to hold back his laughter by covering his mouth tightly.
Laya could only shake his head while exhaling a long breath.
Moku's mouth gaped and couldn't close. He looked down and saw Nezena who was still fast asleep on his arm.
"Oh shit!" Moku immediately lowered Nezena slowly and laid her down on the grass.
When he wanted to chase Nevare, Nerphyl held him "Moku Wait!"
"WHAT?" Moku said angrily.
"I got word from one of the sylphs that a group of humans who might be mages are moving fast towards the Dawnmist Tribe" Nerphyl said quickly, she had never seen Moku this angry.
Swa couldn't hold back his laughter anymore and rolled on the ground holding his stomach.
Laya could only pat his forehead and feel sorry for his poor brother's fate.
"FUCK!!!!!!!" Moku shouted.
