I Am the Only Totem in This World

Episode 9. tribe (1)

Episode 9. tribe (1)

“This is the Blue Moss Tribe. “It’s not far from the altar serving Malak.”

The tribe seen through Paya’s eyes… Even with empty words, it wasn’t beautiful or cool.

Should I say it is a residential tent used by Indians? A house made of triangle-shaped wood that serves as a framework, covered with the skin of an unknown animal, and a thick tree that serves as a pillar in the center.

It was more like a tent town with houses clustered together in a circle.

“It’s pretty cool, right? “Everyone is working hard.”

Paya’s voice is heard, full of pride.

– Right.

‘Why didn’t I live harder?’ If I say the same thing, Paya might cry. Let’s just skip over it.

People don’t necessarily have to live honestly.

“Jeez, priest! “One of the priest’s eyes is glowing blue!”

“Are you okay?”

Several tribal warriors hurriedly run towards Paya.

“it’s okay. Malak is with me now.”

“ah… okay!”

“Have you received a divine blessing?”

“That’s right. “I have to show Malak my tribe, so please excuse me.”

Paya nodded and left.

The eyes of a person who has received divine blessings shine blue.

Wait, one eye that glows blue?

This is absolutely wow! Sans… Ha, even if I tried this drip, no one would understand it.

I suppressed my gag instinct and observed the tribe with Paya.

The fence protecting the tribe was tightly woven, and there was also space for raising livestock or fields… To modern eyes, it seemed like a space created just to experience primitive times.

– hmm?

There is one unusual space. It is not a triangular leather tent like other houses, but a square wooden building.

-What are they doing over there?

“Oh, I made a new one this year. Would you like to see it?”

– Sure.

As I entered the building, I was suddenly struck by the distinct animal odor. The raw smell.

Tap, tap, tap, tap!

Squeak, tight, tight, tight!

The sound of the animal I caught and ate the most on Earth.

– hmm.

This is a place where colorful birds are laying eggs in wooden boxes…

What is it? It’s a chicken coop.

“It’s the Feather House. It is an optimal space for obtaining bird meat and eggs. “It was made under my direction.”

House of Feathers?

– Isn’t it a chicken coop?

“that… You can look at it like this. “It was definitely inspired by the chicken coops used by civilized people.”

It’s not inspired by a chicken coop, it’s just a chicken coop.

“…But I made it with my own reinterpretation and taking into consideration the geographical characteristics of the Blue Moss Tribe, so it is not a complete chicken coop.”

But it’s just a chicken coop. Why can’t you say it’s a chicken coop? He is a stubborn child in a strange place.

I understand the necessity of the technology used by civilized people, but I cannot easily accept it because I hate civilized people. I think I understand this complex and subtle feeling.

I also saw many people who called for a boycott of a certain company but diligently used that company’s products at home.

– I get it. Stop looking at the House of Feathers.

Let’s just say we have confirmed that we have the means to provide nutrients consistently.

“Yes, is there anything in particular you’d like to see?”

– I want to see my children. It would be better if they were healthy children.

It may sound strange, but my intentions are pure.

Isn’t there also a 3B law called the law of unconditional success in advertising?

Baby, Beauty, Beast.

These are the three elements that appeal to most people that are best for touching people’s hearts. Of course it works for me too.

You see, I had to have affection for this world and the tribe I had to protect.

I don’t have high expectations for Beauty and the Beast since they are from a barbarian tribe, but I have modest expectations that children will grow up well even in this environment.

Above all, there is nothing that reminds us of the word ‘protect’ better than a child.

I need to look to my kids to motivate me.

“children! “I know a place you might like, Malak.”

The place that Paya guided me to was located in the center of the tribe, and was a round space filled with sand on the floor. It somehow reminds me of an old elementary school playground…

“Hey!”

“Hiyat!”

No, what!!! The kids in the playground are throwing axes at each other?!

– What the hell are you doing!

I was so surprised that I asked with an exclamation mark.

“These are children who will grow up to be warriors. After the coming of age ceremony, I will climb the mountain shouting Malak’s name.”

No, that’s still true. Is it still okay for young children to train like this?

– Isn’t this training too dangerous?

I was about to say, ‘It might not be good for the growth plates of growing children,’ but I held back. I guess it’s too trivial for a god to say.

“It’s not training, it’s play. “By exchanging axes, we develop trust and a sense of balance.”

No, that’s just a game. What about trust, is it something like a bond with Dok2? Do you even use soul weapons?

“Ah, training will start soon. Malak, please watch over the brave warrior candidates.”

The children threw the ax to the floor and pulled out a sharp dagger made of bone from a waist-like belt.

“You dirty civilized person! die!”

“I will cut off your b*tch’s head and offer it on the altar!”

“Tear and kill!”

“I will kill you and drink your mother’s blood!”

“Then I will bring back to life even your buried ancestors and kill them!”

“Cut your limbs into pieces and feed them to the wolves!”

Shook. Shush. Swish swish. Shush. Shoo shoo shoo.

A feast of swords unfolding in an instant.

I almost lost my mind.

In conclusion, it is difficult to say that the ‘I hope you become friends with the Blue Moss Tribe’ project was a success.

I guess there is still a psychological distance. Of course, it’s not that I don’t understand them.

It is a barren land, and it is a dangerous situation where you never know when the devil will strike, so it would be right to train even young children. I can understand.

Regardless of whether I understood it, the shock I felt as a person who grew up sucking on my mother’s warm nipple called ‘modern society’ was just too great.

A sight of middle school-aged children glaring at each other as if they were going to kill each other and brandishing swords… It’s not easy to get used to.

Also, the sight of Paya going crazy with excitement when she said, ‘Malak is watching!’… He was a terrifying barbarian himself.

I think it will take some time to adapt to this culture.

“-In that sense, Malak is special. He was born in the water and ascended to the sky by crawling on the land, so his spirituality is different even compared to other Loa. “Rather than lying down in one specific place, you roam around in various places.”

– Right.

I disarmed Shinnaerim a little while ago because it consumes quite a bit of mental power. I returned to the dragon totem again.

Now it’s time for Paya’s lecture, which I half-consciously listen to.

Now that my memory is imperfect, I was the one who asked her to tell me a lot of information, but Paya really gave me a lot of ‘miscellaneous’ information.

At first, I listened carefully, but I realized that most of the information was useless to me, so I started listening to it a little bit.

Most of what Paya said was how great I was and what it meant for Loa to descend to this land after hundreds of years.

Click.

So, wouldn’t it be an inevitable result for me to join the community?

After using Sinnaerim, I was able to move my hands and feet. Not the hands and feet of the dragon totem, but the hands and feet in this virtual space.

It is truly an invisible body.

Could it be that a virtual body was created because Paya’s body embodied a human body once? The above was my personal information.

I’ve been reading the past posts diligently for a week, so let’s take a look at the latest posts.
