The Little Devil of Sakaz

"good smell."

Just a slight sniff brings out the fragrance.

However, Worm has no special requirements for the quality of the food. As long as it is not a can of Rem Billiton, he can eat it in any form.

"Hey, right?"

Tallulah also filled a bowl for herself, poked her chopsticks and prepared to eat.

"?"

"These are chopsticks. They are the mainstream tableware in the Yan Kingdom and they are very easy to use."

Whether picking or scooping, you can taste all kinds of food with two chopsticks, and you can even dip some in soup to taste the saltiness.

"Want to try it? It will be very useful once you get used to it."

Seeing the look in Worm's eyes, Tallulah thought he wanted to try it, so she handed over the chopsticks.

"Grab it like this, with your fingers pinched here on the chopsticks."

Tallulah stood up and stood behind Worm, holding the back of his hand and teaching him how to use the new tableware.

"Well, it's really convenient."

Worm learned how to use chopsticks in less than 1 minute. He tried to pick up a piece of radish in the soup, but he was still a little short of proficiency in learning and using it. As a result, the stewed radish was cut from the middle by the chopsticks. One clamp and two pieces broke.

"Haha, just practice slowly and it will be fine."

Tallulah smiled lightly, this was a common situation, Alina was still not very proficient in using chopsticks.

"Tallulah, teach me again."

Worm felt that he would be able to use it skillfully once he memorized the method of use.

"Okay."

Tallulah was indeed teaching seriously at first, but when her eyes drifted from the chopsticks in Worm's hand to Worm's face, looking at his serious look, and thinking about his quiet appearance, the fragments in her memory suddenly changed with The scenes in front of me overlapped.

She also personally taught her younger sister how to use chopsticks.

"Hui Jie..."

She couldn't help but whisper the name, but the sound that followed brought her back to reality.

"Tallulah?"

"Ahem, sorry, Worm. I was just... thinking about my family."

Tallulah quickly apologized to the boy she had been staring at for a long time.

what happened?Is it because I miss my sister too much?He actually regarded Worm as Hui Jie.

"Miss your family? I know that feeling. I also...miss my family."

Worm feels the same way.

He missed Theresia very much, but now he could still see Theresia in his dreams, so that Thearesia's appearance would not be forgotten by him.Tallulah... she looked like that just now. It should be difficult for her to see her family, right?

"Worm's family...well, let's eat first. Do you need me to teach Worm how to use chopsticks again?"

Tallulah suddenly remembered what the white-haired Sakaz girl who was very close to Worm said angrily when she scolded the Wendigo.

Theresia... Worm's relative is named Theresia, right.

Worm's family has left him.

Tallulah thought to herself and began to change the topic.

After all, the main purpose of tonight is to treat Worm to dinner, not to let them remember their family here.

"Yeah. I've learned it."

Worm didn't boast. Although he looked a little unfamiliar at first, as Worm picked up the food a few times, Tallulah discovered that Worm's proficiency in using chopsticks was as good as hers.This made her marvel at Worm's talent.

The meal was very good, but Alina had not returned from delivering food to the children, so Tallulah simply cleared away the food and dishes, leaving the table free for her and Worm to talk.

Talk about the future plans of this team.

"After we accumulate enough strength in the ice field, we will leave here."

Tallulah took out a map with several lines daubed on it.She pointed them out to Worm one by one and told them what to expect if they took this route.

"But we are not leaving this frozen land forever, nor are we abandoning the infected here. Sooner or later, we must come back, return to this man-eating land, and break all the shackles and restraints here. Our The goal is to unite the infected in Ursus, no, the entire land..."

The fireplace was burning, and the firelight was shining over her. From Worm's perspective, the gleaming light in the white-haired dragon girl's eyes was the flame behind her.

“We may be in different places, but there is no difference in our reluctance to accept our circumstances.”

She talked about the experiences of those infected in cities, mountains, and towns.

"Infected people are used as fuel in the city, firewood in the mountains and fields, and trapped in endless toil in the snowfields. This should not be done. If no one speaks up for the infected, then it starts with us."

"My friends in a certain city call this behavior "integration."

"He called on the infected to unite, calling themselves the "Integration Movement" around the same belief to protest against Ursus' current cruel rule of the infected."

Tallulah tells Worm about the origin of the name of the Integration Movement and the future it will face.

"Usas is not a monolith. This is our opportunity. What the integrated movement has to do is convey belief, but I see more opportunities. At the same time, we also have to send a signal."

She stared at Worm, at the friend in front of her who was looking at her extremely seriously and listening to her story extremely seriously. Her voice became louder and louder, and she wanted to convey her belief to him.

"You are not alone!"

It turned out to be the case.

Worm nodded. He heard Tallulah's appeal clearly, but he also had questions.

"It will be difficult to leave here just relying on the current integration movement's own strength and with great fanfare, right?"

He listened attentively to the lecture, and Bozokas explained to him the current situation in Ursus and the current distribution of power.The integration movement... currently can only live in this bitter cold place and slowly work on it.

"Although it is difficult to rely on our own strength, it is not without hope. No matter what, we need to get out of the tundra."

"Because the south has fertile fields, suitable temperatures, seasonal changes, and fresh food."

"Resources, education, prospects... and the future."

Tallulah saw far, and she hoped someone would know what she was seeing and support her in doing it.

"future?"

This word is not unfamiliar to Worm, it is the word he has heard the most.

Sakaz’s future…

"There is not much time left for the infected, and there are not many places for us as infected to set foot. But the infected should have a future. It belongs to the future infected, and to the people after us. Worm... We should find a home for those infected."

The future of infected people...

"A place where we can not be harassed by Ursus' infected pickets, and not be surrounded by Ursus' army. Bringing many infected people together will hinder the movement of the entire team. But we will not give up on them. It's going to be a hard road. But at least the hope we create before we die can be left to others."

"Do you understand, Worm?"

Tallulah looked at the boy in front of her, at the demon king who was leading many of his companions on a long journey.

She believed that Worm would understand.

"I understand, Tallulah."

98. The experience card is over

"Are you still chatting? It's already very late. Tallulah, if you continue to disturb me, just clear out your bed and leave it to Worm."

When Alina came back, she saw that Drak's friend's eyes were almost spitting fire, his tail was raised high, and the smile and excitement on his face overflowed.

Her voice was high and powerful, and she danced around telling all her thoughts to the boy who listened carefully.

Alina had never seen Tallulah look like this before, and even with the support of the snow monsters, she was only slightly happy.

"No need to disturb me, Worm and I had a great time chatting, Alina."

Tallulah scratched her hair and showed a cute silly smile.

It was the first time since she was infected that she could freely express all her thoughts.

Worm listened to her story so seriously. He studied tirelessly, raised questions, echoed her ideas, and even made points that she had not thought of. Although the ideas were always wonderful, such dedicated support and The response was her first experience in this snowfield.

Even with Alina, the best friend who understood her before, Tallulah still had some things that she wouldn't tell her.

But for Worm, Tallulah felt that no matter how much she said, Worm would listen to her heart and then give feedback to her.

Yes, any topic is fine.Current infected persons, future allies, parted family members, past enemies... anything can be used.

"Tallulah taught me a lot."

Worm's words were perfectly timed, making Tallulah even happier.

"Yes, yes, but it's already very late. It's better to rest early. I think if you continue talking, Tallulah, Miss Sakaz will rush over with that big weapon."

Alina wasn't really blaming Tallulah, it was just that it was really late, and it would be bad if it dragged on any longer and affected everyone's rest.Worm is probably still in the growth stage, so he needs to get enough sleep.

"Oh...Okay. Then next time...tomorrow, do you have time tomorrow, Worm?"

Tallulah stopped her story unfinished, but then started to schedule the next discussion with Worm.

"We have training tomorrow. Not enough time."

"Then...then next time. I'll take you back, Worm."

It was already snowing quietly outside. Fortunately, the Sakaz acted quickly and had already built the prototype of the house, where they could shelter from the wind and snow.

Worm stepped on the snow, and Tallulah beside him walked briskly, shaking her head and tail.

What does it feel like to have a tail?

Worm thought.

The imp had a tail, but it wasn't as long and round as Tallulah's, and it didn't look like it would get in the way.

Keobei also has a tail, which is soft and fluffy, and can change the amplitude of its shaking according to changes in mood.

Sonia seems to have a tail too?

Worm thought, and then he saw the little devil standing at the door, and Arturo who was forced to stand at the door.

"Well, Worm..."

"Warm!"

Tallulah's words were interrupted by Dabuli's loud shouts as soon as she left her mouth.

The little devil ran over quickly and hugged Worm.

"Why did you come back? I don't even feel like eating anymore if Worm isn't here."

"The chat took a little longer."

Worm comforted the little devil and turned his head to look at Tallulah who had just called him.

"See you tomorrow, Worm."

Tallulah paused before saying what she just said.

"See you tomorrow, Tallulah."

Worm entered the hut surrounded and crowded by Sakota and Sakaz. The warm firelight disappeared under the night as the door closed.

Tallulah stood there and waited for a while, and then breathed out a sigh of relief.

"See you tomorrow, Worm."

She talked a lot today and she felt unparalleled relaxation. She must have slept well tonight.

Hope you have sweet dreams too, Worm, my friend.

Tallulah looked at the sky, the snow falling on her palms, swung her tail, and walked briskly towards her current little home.

"Worm, the hot water is ready. Take a shower and go to bed."

Dabuliu glanced at Arturo, and the pet obediently went to get a basin for her demon master to use.

"Thank you, Arturo."

"You are too kind, my lord. It is my duty."
