Hearing that, Narita pondered, then continued to look at the path he was walking on.
On the road, there were a few people who would occasionally go against the rules, but not only did the Lizard who was guarding not reminding them, the people around spoke up.
The person immediately felt embarrassed and returned to the pedestrian lane.
Nirata felt annoyed when what he believed in was broken by others, but he couldn't find any reason to refute Shala.
"Okay, don't think too much, follow me to visit this place!"
Narita sighed and nodded.
The two went to the area where the dwarves lived. In fact, Narita didn't know that this place had a Dwarven area, but when he came to this place, he saw a lot of Dwarves living here so he was surprised.
"Dwarfs? No way, this race has been extinct since ancient times, why are there Dwarves in this place?"
"Ah! Extinct? Why?" Shala was also surprised by what Narita said. To know that a race went extinct before the fog came was a terrible thing.
When Shala was alive, she had never heard anything resembling 'extinction'.
Ack! Of course she was still alive now, but this was a second life, many years away from her past life.
"That's right." Narita nodded and said, "In the past, because of their curious nature, they snuck inside a palace in the Sanctuary."
"And somehow, they brought down that palace. I… The Pope was furious at that time, so he ordered the destruction of the Dwarves that had sneaked into Sanctuary."
"However, the other races seem to have misunderstood the Pope's orders, either because they hate the Dwarven race so much…"
"They changed the Pope's order to exterminate all the Dwarves. In just 30 years, all the Dwarves had been annihilated, even if they hid in the ground, they couldn't escape."
"Naturally, this sweeping operation destroyed all of the Dwarves. After that, the other kingdoms issued warrants for the Dwarves for a long time."
"In the end, when no one saw the Dwarves anymore, then they believed that the Dwarves were truly extinct."
After hearing this, Shala felt extremely scared: "What did the Dwarves do to make the other races hate it so much?"
"Like I said, due to their curious nature. They were extremely curious and they disassembled everything to study. Sometimes, the things they were interested in were the treasures of kings or nobles."
"Not stopping there, they were also interested in many other things. If they didn't get it, they would steal it. Even if they find what was lost, those Dwarves would have disassembled or destroyed them to the point of being unusable."
"Dwarf children were even more troublesome, as they played all kinds of games that annoyed others and destroyed the things around them."
"Many people have died because of the vandalism of that race. That's why other races hate Dwarves a lot."
When Shala heard this, she sweated. She just thought that the Dwarves were just curious to research, she didn't expect them to have caused so many deaths and made many races hate them so much.
Perhaps… Dwarves were the only race that didn't go extinct because of the mist but because of their curiosity.
Shala began to feel worried about the dwarves living in the territory.
That's right, after hearing Narita's words, she started to feel extremely nervous. It must be known that she was the manager of the place of residence and other minor matters involved.
If they cause any serious problems, the first person to be blamed is Shala.
Although Shala was worried, she didn't show that worry on her face.
"I think you should drive out this whole group of Dwarves or kill them all. Don't let them cause trouble inside this territory."
Shala heard that and shook her head: "It's okay. I think… we should give them a chance."
"So… I hope you can endure the trouble they cause. Until then, I also hope you and Hikaru won't regret this decision."
Shala heard Narita speak with certainty which made her feel a bit… scared.
Yes, Narita's attitude made Shala feel like she was slowly losing faith in the Dwarves.
But then she pushed Narita's words out of her head, her eyes were also more determined: "It's okay, thank you for explaining. However… I still think their nature is not bad, if given time, they will change, and become better."
Narita nodded, he also didn't care much about Shala and Hikaru's blind trust. No, the people in this territory were completely blind.
Naria believed that the one who could clearly see the future of this place was only him.
When going to the area where the Dwarves lived, Shala was a little worried.
That's right, even though she believed that things wouldn't be as bad as Narita said, she still felt nervous in her heart.
The scene before them startled Narita and Shala. The Dwarves seemed to be living a very normal life.
The Dwarves that were playing together on the street were all watched by other adult Dwarves. If they did something out of the ordinary, they would immediately warn them.
The other Dwarves gathered together as if discussing something. Especially Amdoc, he went from house to house to tell them something.
He even took out a type of record item, and carefully recorded a lot of information.
Shala breathed a sigh of relief, she was also afraid that something terrible would happen. But everything Looked normal.
She smiled confidently and said: "Hahaha… Narita, look, they are all living a normal life, without any problems."
Narita just shook his head and replied, "Don't be in a hurry to rejoice. They live normally because they are not familiar with the place. When they feel the comfort you bring, they will cause terrible trouble."
Shala got angry upon hearing that but she didn't say anything more because she knew the best way to prove herself right was time.
That's right, now no matter what Narita said, she could not refute it. As it would take time to prove him wrong.
Suddenly, Amdoc saw Shala and happily approached, he very excitedly said: "Shala... this is..."
"Ah! This is Narita, the lord's secretary." Shala immediately introduced.
"Nice to meet you, I am Amdoc, village chief of the Dwarves." Amdoc performed the ceremony very respectfully.
However, Narita just nodded slightly, saying nothing. Amdoc was not angry at this, he also knew that nobles had their own arrogance.
Despite Narita's appearance as a Skeleton, in this world, Skeletons were greatly underrated. However, Shala had just introduced Narita as the lord's secretary, indicating that he was a noble.
And nobles won't talk to commoners or low-ranking races.
Amdoc looked at Shala and said, "I have informed everyone in the village about the regulations of the territory, I have also gathered information on all the Dwarves living in this place."
Amdoc said while handing a scroll to Shala: "Inside there is full information of each person including their name, age, family, including what their occupation is ..etc."
"Hope this helps you."
Shala heard that and happily said: "Of course the information you gave me will help me a lot. For now, you must learn to obey the laws of the territory."
"The rules are all posted on the notice board at the community house, which you can memorize and disseminate to everyone."
"I don't expect people to cause any trouble."
Hearing Shala speak, Amdoc started sweating, as he remembered what had happened in the past. He nodded repeatedly: "Of course we won't cause any trouble. This place is like heaven, we don't want to be kicked out of heaven either."
Shala nodded: "So... Now I need you to prepare about 5 people who are knowledgeable about carpentry to go out to find materials."
"Of course the lord will not let you risk your lives. He will find adventurers to escort you. The departure time will be the day after tomorrow."
Amdoc heard that the lord was going to give them a mission and was overjoyed.
What he was most worried about was that the lord would care about the trouble the Dwarves caused in the past and feel that they were useless.
However, if the lord gave them a quest, it meant that they had a great influence on the lord.
"Shala, you can rest assured, I will immediately prepare the information of 5 people knowledgeable in the carpentry profession. Tonight I will gather them together for you to see first."
Shala nodded, seeing Amdoc excited, she also felt reassured. She was just worried that the Dwarves were afraid of the fog, so they didn't want to go out.
After saying that, Amdoc left, he did not want to delay their work progress.
Shala laughed and said, "Did you see that? They seem to be very excited to work."
"Um… I hope they don't make things worse or even ruin things."
Shalla was so angry that her face turned red. She felt that Narita seemed to be trying to irritate him.
"So… Do you have any problems to solve?" Narita did not notice Shala's attitude, so he spoke extremely nonchalantly.
"Huh! We don't have any problems right now, everything is running extremely well. However, I just hope more people will join the policing team."
"Security team?" Narita now noticed that the people on the policing team were all Lizards. Since Lizards were a low level race, their potential was not great.
If the policing team had only Lizards, he was afraid they wouldn't be able to prevent troubles from arising in the territory because they were too weak.
Narita shook his head and said, "Sorry, I can't solve this problem. However, I will report it to the lord, I trust that he can solve this problem."
Narita said this while thinking about the problems that might make Hikaru feel despair. At that time, he could prove that what he said was true, and Hikaru was only bringing the territory to the edge of the abyss.
