Chapitre 6: Welcome to the Village of Siluca
"Hot... hot..."
Yesterday, Peng Hu couldn't feel properly his surroundings because of all the sudden events. After leaving the cave today for a while, Peng Hu just couldn't endure this heat.
"Can you... just stop whining!?"
"How can you endure this... are you even human?"
"Right back at you. Are you made of jelly?"
"Would you carry me if I were to say yes?"
"My friend here would be very happy to 'carry' you."
With a smile worth a thousand watts, Pina grabbed her trusty rapier while looking at Peng Hu.
"hah... hah... you fox."
"Slime."
"I'm thirsty."
"We drank the last drop of water an hour ago. Go drink your own piss."
"Go away. Isn't there any water river nearby? Let's make a quick stop please..."
"Seriously, how did you even arrive into this part of territory?
"I also want to know."
After a while, Pina and Peng Hu stopped by a small water river, refilling their water containers and energy. Pina went to a nearby tree to make some quick water containers out of leaves as precautions for Peng Hu pitiful performance in the survival department. It was very annoying to hear a whining man through the journey.
From a corner in Peng Hu's view, he saw an extravagant creature that looked somewhat like a rooster a 100 meters away between the woods. Moving closer to see clearly, he felt a little bit overjoyed having met an animal he knew.
"Is that... a rooster? Let's go catc-..."
Without finishing his sentence, Peng Hu felt a hand wrapping his mouth to prevent saying any more. Afterwards, Peng Hu got dragged back near the river.
{whispering} "What are you doing..."
{whispering} "That's a Lion Roar of Roost. It's a creature known for its roar. Do you remember the loud roar in the morning? It was done by it."
{whispering} "Lion Roar of Roost? Who named it with such a long name?"
{whispering} "I don't know. Probably a dead person. Anyways, don't interact with it."
{whispering} "Why? And why are we even whispering?"
{whispering} "Where there is one Lion Roar of Roost, there will be danger."
Peng Hu felt a headache with the name of Lion Roar of Roost. If such a creature had a long name, what kind of names would powerful creatures have?
[Alright. I've decided. I don't know how troublesome it would be, but I'm going to make sure to change this creature's name into something more comfortable to say... Be grateful 'rooster from another world'!]
{whispering} "Why is it dangerous to hang around a Lion... Roar of Roost?"
{whispering} "Who wouldn't want to kill the one responsible for waking them up from their sweet dream?"
*cough* *cough*
Peng Hu coughed blood from how straightforward the creature kingdom works in this new world.
{whispering} "Just a word of warning so that you don't cause any trouble for me Pen: don't interact with any creature you see along the way. You don't have the skill to back up your actions. You could even end up dead."
{whispering} "I will keep that in mind."
After finishing their business with the river, Peng Hu and Pina sneakily left the place quickly. After a few minutes, they could both hear some loud noises of fight in the direction of the Lion Roar of Roost.

At sunset, Peng Hu and Pina could finally see the Village of Siluca from a distance. Wanting to arrive before evening, they both quickened their pace.
"Let's pick up the pace Pen. We are almost there. Don't you dare whine."
"Ha ha..."
At the entrance of the village, Peng Hu stopped and could finally take it in all the scenery before him. There was a huge signboard in the front gate with the words 'Siluca' engraved into it. He could see that there was a moderate wall made of mud surrounding the village. The houses he could see has the american colonial architecture feeling on them. Making a quick estimation, Peng Hu could deduce from what he saw that the Village of Siluca probably has around 25,000 people living on it.
Two warriors were standing in the front, which Peng Hu could infer that they must be on guard duty.
"Welcome home, Ms. Pina!"
"Thank you for the hard work Biggs, Wedge."
Pina glanced back at the tired Peng Hu.
Peng Hu saw that the silhouette of Pina was strange, as if she grew taller. After blinking and making sure his eyes didn't play tricks on him, he saw that Pina was the same.
[Must be some kind of optical illusion caused by the refraction of the sun when it sets.]
As if she were an ambassador for the village, Pina warmly welcomed Peng Hu.
"Welcome to the Village of Siluca, Pen Who."
