Chapter 12: Su Ze's refusal

Female ... male ... no woman ... orc ... these words were finally connected in Su Ce's mind, so he thought a lot of things.
The previous bad feelings became clear.
In this world, there are independent races called orcs-they can reproduce or even have formed their own civilization. Males can transform, females ... I don't know if they have the ability to transform, but they can have children. Humanoids are all male in appearance.
Su Ce remembered that Tantu took such intimate care from the various actions after meeting him. Is he ... pursuing a partner?
Fighting the beast in front of him-showing that the male has the power to protect the female and hunting, taking him back to his tribe-showing the strength of his community and being able to feed the female, inviting him to live together-showing his ability to build a nest.
Combining all of this, Su Ce finally understood that he was courted by an orc, and he was undoubtedly regarded as a female party, and he also found that, in appearance, he was indeed a female in the tribe. Exactly the same.
Although I cannot blame Tantu's misidentification, this misunderstanding cannot continue. Not to mention having children.
Su Ze never thought he had this ability, and why can a female orc do it? Is there any unknown reason ...
No, this is not the time to think about it. Su Ce shook his head. He must now dispel the idea of ​​Tantu and let him understand that he and he have insurmountable, cross-species-like obstacles between species.
After combing things over in his heart, Su Ce calmed down.
There is no doubt that the world is extremely dangerous for him. He must not be able to easily kill a giant leopard like Tantu. For him, if he left Tantu, he would not be able to survive in this world safely, let alone find a senior.
However, Tantu has vividly remembered everything he has done for him these days. He did n’t know why originally, but he has been ashamed, but now that he knows, he can better see the other person ’s heart and sincerity to himself. He still did something a little helpless, but it is precisely because of this that it shows that the other party attaches great importance to himself ... Su Ce asked himself that he could not make use of this man who was full of animalism but was quite simple. Mind.
In any case, he could not let Tantu's fruitless feelings continue, for which he had to reject his pursuit.
In a split second, I thought about it a lot. From the side Laya's point of view, he just scratched it and didn't pay much attention, and Su Ce made a decision and continued to pick the fabric on the stall.
He owes a lot to Tantu, and he will compensate him as much as possible.
Su Ce didn't select it for a long time, and suddenly a gust of wind rolled over, a figure stood behind him, squatted down, bypassed his body, and picked up the softest piece of cloth. I chopped it again and took out a few others with similar texture.
The strong taste of Tantu passed into Su Ce's nose, perhaps because he had understood his mind. Tantu's sense of existence was further amplified here in Su Ce, allowing him to recognize it in an instant-he would not recognize it at all. he.
"Laya, do these pieces look the softest? Are they made of red silk?" Tantu's voice sounded in Su Ze's ears, and hot breath sprayed on his ear, making him a little uncomfortable. He turned his head.
The female named Laia laughed: "Tantu's eyes always see the best, whether it's the fiercest enemy, the fattest prey ... or the most precious cloth."
Tantu was satisfied: "I will send the bones to your house."
They are all in the same tribe, and the orcs never settle accounts.
Raya handed the fabric to Tantu, and Tantu stood up with Su Ze gently guarding him in his arms—in a protective gesture.
Su Ce made a bit, but he saw that gentle look in Tantu's eyes, and he lowered his eyes unconsciously.
Rejecting this orc is more difficult than imagined. Such a precious sentiment has never been encountered in Su Ce's 25 years of life, but ... the gap is still too big.
Tantu didn't find his sweetheart's thoughts at all. He was still immersed in joy, holding the fabric in one hand, holding Su Ce in the other, and taking him to the direction of his residence.
He lives in a tribe near the inner woods, which is relatively quiet and not as dangerous as outside the tribe because of its small size. Although orcs are gregarious, not everyone likes to live with many people.
Tantu was a pair of children who loved hunting and came to this tribe by accident. At that time, his mother was about to give birth and stayed for a while. Only after Tantu was born, the free nature let The couple couldn't wait to go out, so Tantu was entrusted to the tribe to take care of him, so that the patriarch took care of it for several years, and when he could hunt, he could feed himself.
In these years, Tantu has never seen his parents. Maybe they have lost their lives in safari, maybe they are still on their journey ... But for Tantu, the tribe gave him a sense of belonging. Orcs, especially males, are like real beasts. When they are a little bigger, they gradually lose their dependence on their parents. Connected to their lives is the company that accompanies them, the place where the soul returns.
When he came to this forest, Su Ce looked up and saw that there were some houses among the trees, not many, and there were quite a few of them. Tantu took his hand and took him step by step. Go in.
"Aze, watch out for the thorns in the tree ..."
"Aze, here are a few kiddies traps, don't step on them."
"Aze, don't be afraid, there are no beasts here ..."
"Aze, don't touch this tree, it has slime on it, and it will be very uncomfortable when it touches ..."
Tantu is too familiar with this forest. Unlike the outside, he now has to take a lot of precautions with Su Ce before taking a few steps to keep him from getting hurt.
Su Ze listened to him silently, although he used to speak very little except for work, but he did not hate the excitement of others ... he could even say that he liked it. No one has ever been like Tantu, as if he was the only one in his heart.
But this is wrong, he simply failed to meet Tantu's expectations, and he himself was far from ready.
Before walking far, Tantu's residence was on a flat ground in the middle of the forest, surrounded by tall broad-leaved trees, which covered half the sky and looked very shady.
The room is made of wood. It is very wide. The bottom floor can accommodate Tantu's beast. The second floor is about where Tantu sleeps. There is almost no furniture. There is only one huge beast. The leather shop was there, looking rough.
Su Ze sat on the skin of the animal and found that this wooden house had only one room on each floor.
"Tantu, where do I live?" He asked, looking at the tall orc.
Tantu stunned, reacted, and then "brushed" and flushed.
"That ... Azer." Tantu scratched his hair. "I'll expand the house ..." The two of us lived a little smaller. "Let's go upstairs tonight, I'll keep it for you."
Actually, there is no need to expand ... Su Ce closed his eyes and sighed. He wanted to say something, but when he saw Tantu's expression, he suddenly couldn't say anything.
Tantu thought that Su Ce had no opinion, looked out the window, and said, "Don't go there."
Su Ce followed Tantu's gaze and saw a corner of a house. Most of it was covered by trees about a hundred meters away.
"There's Arsen's house there. He always likes to hang in the sun on the tree, and doesn't like to be disturbed." Tantu continued with a cough.
However, although what he said is true, it is still so dim.
In the tribe, it was precisely because of the existence of Arsen, that Tantu, who could be called the tribe's strongest male, became "one of the strongest males".
Arsen's temper is even less pleasing than Tantu, and he is very cold, and most of the females don't like to be close to him ... But his looks are very beautiful, and the beast type is also very beautiful. Su Ce has just arrived Here, and their houses are so close to each other ... Tantu was a little worried, afraid he would be attracted to Arsen.
Su Ce didn't think of Tantu's careful thinking. He only thought that the other party was a somewhat obscure neighbor, and Tantu reminded him, but he didn't care much. In fact, he was frowning and thinking about how to talk to Tantu I understand. He nodded, "I see."
Tantu breathed a sigh of relief, remembering that Su Ce hadn't eaten for a long time, so he said, "I'll get you something to eat." After that, I just jumped. However, his arms were caught by Suetzer.
He turned back and saw Su Ce's solemn expression.
"Tantu, I have something to tell you." Su Ce thought about it, but decided to explain it directly, "I can't accept you."
