We walked around the village, it was a beautiful day just like yesterday, and there was a lot of people walking around, more than yesterday. I glanced around and found some guards gathering near the entrance of the village.

”What ’s going on now? ” wondered Miranda. ”Is something happening? ”

”I bet someone stole oranges or something… Hahaha… ” laughed Belle.

”No way they would make a fuss for some oranges being stolen, right? ” asked Fuyu. ”They ’re everywhere… ”

A guard passing by was stopped by Rakasha, who politely asked him what was happening.

”Sir, is something happening? ”

”Ah… Yeah! Last night it was reported that a group of Lizardmen were seen stealing oranges. ”

”See? What did I said? They stole oranges and are making a fuss. ” Said Belle.

”T-That fox can speak? ” asked the guard.

”Yeah, it is a spirit, not really a monster. Anyways, is that all about? ” I asked.

”A spirit… I see… W-Well, not really, we wouldn ’t make such a fuss if it were some oranges being stolen, but the real problem is the Lizardmen, they ’re a powerful and large tribe of humanoid monsters that dominate the marshlands. ” Said the guard. ”The last years they were pushed away from this area by the Kingdom ’s army and the sect, but they seem to be trying to regain the land… ”

”Interesting, Lizardmen, huh? ” I wondered.

”Lizardmen are vicious lizard-like monsters that stand in two feet. They ’re primitive like Orcs and Goblins, but more organized. ” Said the guard. ”A-Anyways, I must go, this is dangerous, if the Lizardmen are getting closer, it might meant that they would attempt a raid at night or something, we have to prepare before anything bad happens. ”

”You ’re right good man, go. ” I said, petting his shoulders as I stealthily left a few small droplets of slime inside of his armor, that way I can spy on their conversation.
