Kapitel 29: Merciful Saint (3)
Redakteur: Henyee Translations
Aren't all humans cunning and selfish? Is there a ploy I am unaware of? Why would he bring up such a request? The entire barbarian village was drowned with a confused and doubtful atmosphere.
On the other hand, the druids did not reveal any shock, as Chu Nan had done too many acts of kindness without requesting for any compensation from them. From their knowledge based on past records, merciful saints also existed other than cunning humans, albeit rare.
From the druids' viewpoint, Chu Nan was one of those rare merciful saints in human society. To them, Chu Nan was a human who showed no discrimmination towards other races, a human who helped without expecting compensation, and lastly a saint that had saved their village.
"Shanz, are you unsatisfied?" Chu Nan futhered questioned when he noticed the doubtful and wary look on Shanz's face. "Are you planning to reject my offer? Rejecting the chance to form a new friendship with the druids and I?"
"This… no no…" Shanz quickly shook his head. A chance of friendship in the Heaven Forest should never be rejected. If they were to reject it, the final result would only be war.
Although Shanz was not afraid of fighting to the death for his village, he still knew that needless death was meaningless.
Peace, in exchange for the village's development and prosperity and a new battle skill inheritance. Even though Shanz was not on the clever side of the spectrum, he was no fool, so he naturally knew what to choose.
Shanz tried his best to stand on his own, without Jack's support and did a courtesy unique to the barbarians while still swaying slightly. "Alright, I am willing to accept the condition. The barbarians from now will be in a bond of friendship with druids and Mr. Chu Nan."
The villagers from both races immediately cheered the moment those words were said. It was true the honor of their race was important, but the same goes for their lives. If they could get along peacefully, no one would want to risk their lives fighting for the village's pride needlessly.
It was just that in the past, both villages usually were of equal strength with no one having the capability nor the strength to be the peacemaker. So naturally, Chu Nan, who was a Heaven Realm expert in their minds, had that qualification.
"Since the barbarians have accepted the druid's friendship, I think…" Chu Nan propped his chin and thought for a moment before he said, "Since everyone is here, why don't we have dinner tonight to solidify our friendship."
In the druid's heart, Chu Nan's words are absolute and totally without flaws. Therefore, they all responded enthusiastically to the dinner.
Shanz was more or less still injured, and it would do no good for him to return to the village in his current state. As a result, the barbarians also agreed to the dinner invitation
Looking at mountain-like Shanz, Chu Nan secretly swallowed his saliva and started to plan how he could cheat that huge blockhead into his entourage.
He could imagine whenever there was a fight, he could just push Shanz into the ring and he would win the fight with just his looks alone.
Under the starry night, dozens of bonfires were lit in the druids village and hundreds of barbarians together with druids encircled it freely.
Several barbarians with more outgoing personalities roared as they sang a folk song unique to their race. The savageness instilled into their very being after living in a primitive forest was fully reflected in their songs.
After listening to their song, Chu Nan felt that if they were to live on Earth, those rock singers wouldn't be able to hold a candle next to them.
After Shanz rested for an entire day, he no longer required someone's support him to walk despite still not being completely recovered. He walked directly to Chu Nan's side and sat down on his own violation.
"You're here? Have a bite." Chu Nan passed him a piece of deer meat that was perfectly roasted.
Shanz absent-mindedly took a bite before he carefully asked, "Do you really know the <Battle Roar> skill of our race?"
Without waiting for Chu Nan to speak, Aleta who was eating nearby spoke up. "Shanz, you don't know Mr. Chu Nan well so I will tell you this once: Don't doubt Mr. Chu Nan. In the past, I was as skeptical as you are right now and I doubted if Mr. Chu Nan really knew about our race's skills. However, not only did he teach me <Feral Berserk> and <Ferocious Rattan>, he even taught me how to transform without any hand signs. Our elder has once mentioned that only the royal druids of the past were capable of transforming at will. Unfortunately, with the passage of time, no one among the current druid royalties are capable of doing so."
"Without… any hand signs.. It is true…." Shanz eyes popped out. "It was also said that our royal ancestor could also accomplish that feat and unleash devastating skills without any hand signs. However, that ability was lost through the passage of time. I wonder… if Mr. Chu Nan…"
"Is that really that hard to accomplish?" Chu Nan took a bite of the deer meat and said nonchalantly, "The foundation of the skills of barbarians and druids are the same. As long as your abilities have reached the requirement, you can unleash your skills without any hand signs."
Aleta revealed a proud expression in front of Shanz, much like a little kid who was showing off his parents.
Several days back, Chu Nan had given too much of a mental shock to the druids and right now, Shanz was getting the same treatment.
Chu Nan gave Shanz a glance and looked at the proud Aleta before he chuckled. "Isn't it just <Battle Roar>? If not for the fact that most of my powers have been sealed, it's not difficult for me to obtain the <Barbarian's Heart> battle skill inheritance for you."
"B-bar… barbarian's Heart…"
Shanz felt the world spinning. <Barbarian's Heart> was one of the ultimate skills that only the top warriors from the barbarian temple had the qualifications to learn. There was a saying in many barbarian villages which went like this: Only when one possesses the barbarian's heart, would one be considered a true barbarian.
"You know of the <Barbarian's Heart> battle skill inheritance?"
Shanz looked at Chu Nan with a fervent gaze. All the barbarians at present also looked at Chu Nan with a similar gaze. With hundreds of passionate gazes locked on him, Chu Nan started to doubt if their sexual orientation was straight.
"Sigh!" Chu Nan heavily sighed, and with a solemn expression, he sighed again. "Sigh! I've only seen the <Barbarian's Heart> battle skill inheritance, yet I do not understand the training method. If my memory serves me right, it is a skill book woven with purple gold threads and the cover is a barbarian holding onto a huge axe with both hands while roaring towards the skies."
