A week passed and the new elves were already settled in the forest and were useful in a lot of areas.
Among the elves was a female named Liz who specialized in making clothes, she was immediately assigned to Latina to help with the village clothing.
Rigarf, Qoli, Aharth, and a few other elves were assigned to Deka to help guard the open areas of the village alongside some of the Beast men.
Another set of elves was picked out, and assigned to assist Daina on the farm and also with food control.
A particular herb elf, Derona, was specifically allocated to assist Giron in the selling of
Deerhugs and other resources to nearby villages.
And so far their best customer has been the Riojas Kingdom, the ruler, Sent Balios took a liking to the village product and signed a trade accord with them.
And Sato agreed since the king was buying a lot, spending close to 6 thousand gold Sels on seasoned Deerhugs alone.
The fact that the king was the first person he had met with two names also stuck out to him.
The building of the bridge for easier passage to different cities and towns was supervised by Gambi.
? Yuri officially took her place as Sato's assistant while Divanchi became his main bodyguard.
Orland was put in charge of internal and external affairs within the village, like securing moving traders and sending messages/spying on other villages, and gathering information.
Jiro, Elena, and a few others were assigned the task of hunting for the village, although Elena had been locked in her room ever since she came back, Jiro and the rest tried their hardest to come back with food every day.
The financial budget/ trading budget was also handled by Giron but Miya, the new elf, had been slowly taking charge of it.
Everything was gradually taking a good turn for the village, they were getting both income and fame over the passing weeks.
...
The door to the room slightly opened, and a shadow figure snuck inside, both their red and blue eyes glowed in the dark as they walked in.
Closing the door gently, the human figure tiptoed over to the bed where Sato was sleeping peacefully.
It was nighttime, midnight to be exact so the only people that were up were a few other beast men who decided to keep watch of the village.
Reaching the bed, the individual paused when they spotted a tray of food resting on the drawer.
With utmost care, the figure slowly reached for the bread when all of a sudden, Sato grabbed their hand.
He snapped his fingers, and the numerous glow crystals began to glow and light up the room.
Still laying on the bed, Sato looked at the figure and spoke, "Who are you?".
He could see a person wearing a brown cloak with a hood covering their face, almost too well.
The individual panicked and tried to pull away but they couldn't release themselves from the grip.
During the struggle, the individual fell butt-first to the ground. The hood opened from the impact and the person's face was revealed.
'Wolf girl?'...Shocked, Sato immediately pulled the girl close with a powerful punch following right after.
The wolf girl was quick to maneuver her body in the air and dodged Sato's punch before landing on the ground.
Baam!
The girl leaped up, high enough for her feet to touch the ceiling and carry Sato with her before slamming his back on the wall.
But just before the wolf girl could touch the ground, Sato sent a fast-moving ice bullet straight at the girl's stomach.
She fell to the ground almost instantly and in the blink of an eye Sato was on top of her, holding both her arms and legs to the ground.
"How did you get in here?" Sato asked as he stared at the wolf girl.
"Raah!" The wolf girl roared, struggling to free herself but she couldn't lift a finger.
She had a black furry tail, wolf eyes, and black long hair that scattered behind her on the ground. Both her eyes shimmered different colors, the left side being blue and the right side taking that of red color.
"So you don't plan to talk then?... Very well," Sato uttered, suddenly his eyes began to blaze as blue lasers began to build up in his eyes.
"Don't worry, it will be over before you know it".
Just from the heat Sato's eyes were emitting, the wolf girl knew she stood no chance if she took that head on.
Frightened with tear handing around her eyes , she screamed, "Okay okay, I get it I'm sorry, I'll talk… I'll talk alright! Don't burn me!" She sobbed.
Sato's eyes dimmed before he sighed and stood up from the girl.
He sat on his bed and watched as the girl knelt with an embarrassed look on her face as she rubbed her arm.
"Where are you from? Or rather, who sent you?.... Are you a spy?" Sato asked, watching as she wagged her tail.
The wolf girl suddenly pointed at the tray of food on Sato's desk.
Sato handed her the food and she began munching down the food like a hungry beast.
"Wow, you must be very hungry." Sato voiced out as he observed, "What's your name?".
"I don't have one." The wolf girl spoke, rushing the food like she hadn't had a meal in days.
"And where do you stay?" Sato raised another question.
"I stay in the forest, far far away from here."
"F..Far? So how did you end up here then?".
The wolf girl suddenly paused, "Badman promised to pay me if I fight, so I followed the bad man to fight, I don't remember what happened after that, all I remember was waking up here and smelling this delicious meal".
"Bad man? Do you happen to know the name of…"
Baam!
The door to Sato's room suddenly sprung open. Sato looked back to see Yuri at the entrance, panting with her hands resting on the wall.
She had a nervous look on her face when she saw the wolf girl seated in front of Sato.
"Yuri, are you okay?" Sato asked.
Yuri kept panting, her eyes focused on the wolf girl, "You little brat!".
