We continued to hike asgard thinking if we can afford to rent an inn
Asgard was a town of humans that's now occupied by demi-humans such as lizard-men and other antrophomorphic animals after humans have long extinct.
According to legends, Only humans posses such a power that can nullify magic. Humans are great at physical and demi-humans are great at magical and so, out of jealousy and obsession of power, Other countries began hunting them, disecting them, using them as a guinea pig and cutting their bodies into pieces to examine how does they got their power.
It was a war between humans and demi-humans—The hundred years war.
After hundreds of years have passed. Because hundred-millions of demi-humans have come to hunt humans. From millions of humans, human population has gradually decrease to hundreds until a ceast and desist order was ordered by the nation after they couldn't find any human beings again.
The last of them locked inside the cage were transferred to a house having an equipment they need for their daily life and letting them live a normal life only to find them at sunrise hanging in the ceiling—They suicide.
The countries which have heard the news feeled sorrow and reget for what they have done.
It seems to me that it's not that their life is what they want to end, it's the endless agony that they want to, but because they can't forget the moments how demi-humans treated them as a guinea pig, they finally decided at some point to kill themself—to free from the chain demi-humans pinioned.
Poor humans.
Legends doesn't state how does their face looks nor their appearance. Rumors says they are just like us having a tail, or an elf ear or they probably are smaller than us but the effective thing to knowing them is they can't use any magic but can only nullify it.
Millions of humans were slaughtered, in the end, No one knows how does they got their power.
They are really the unluckiest beings in this world.
But that's just what the legend says meaning that humans probably only exist in legends. No one knows if they did really get extinct or not and just hiding somewhere in this world.
After thousands of years trying to look for them with no avail, it is a clear thing that they really cease from this world.
I wonder if someday I could meet one of them.
Humanity has declined.

Chapitre 8: The Joke
A day later, this thing he called "bike" stopped working and left us with the choice to walk.
Judging from the distance we've covered, It would take about a one and a half a day to hike Asgard, In the meantime Ayumu-san started contructing the tent.
"We'll stay here for the night" he said.
"That bike was super fast!" I look at him with amusement in my eyes.
"Is it because there's a magic placed on it?" I added and queried.
"Yes it is because there is" he answered.
"You mean, you know how to cast and place a spell?-" I queried again then he suddenly interrupted that led me forgot the topic.
"Catch this" He tossed a fabric to me.
"What's this" I asked, examining this color blue shirt-like thing having a hood in it.
"That's a poncho. Your dress is badly torn up, Wear it" he answered and ask me to.
"Oh right, thanks, but where should I change?"
"Done" he muttered as soon as he finished the tent.
"You change inside here." he answered, Doing a feeble pat at it.
I entered the tent, changed myself and to my suprise this poncho he gave me fits quite well to my self.
"Good night" He yawned at the other side.
As soon as I finished checking how well this shirt fits me, I hurried to see where he's sleeping in and found him lying supine in this mat he placed and chattered.
"Missy-chan, the night isn't young. It is a must that you should sleep." He yawned.
"How about you? You should sleep inside the tent." I ordered, pointing my fingers at the camp.
"Do you even know what are you saying?" He ignored me and covered himself with a blanket. "I'm a man and you're a girl" he continued
I slip my are arm to his, curled it up, and pulled him slowly inside.
"Do you even know what could happen if I slept with you?" He queried
"I know!" I exclaimed
"Then why-"
"Because if you got sick, no one would protect me!" I let go off my arm letting his back hit the ground. "It is not because I wanted it!" I added.
"Ouch" He muttered the pain stolidly as his back hits the ground.
"..." He went silent.
"Damn, I shouldn't have said that or he would leave me." I thought to myself.
"You have a point right there missy" He stoods up.
"Heh? Does that means that he accepted that he lose or he's wrong" I thought to myself again.
"Just a fact, I'm not a virgin." He folds the mat.
"No way!" Is the first thing that came to my mind.
"You ca-can't b-be saying t-that yo-you have done th-that things!"
"I'll tell you one thing" He sees my blushing cheeks and quivering blue eyes as he turned to me before he entered.
"It's a joke" said he curtly and entered the tent leaving me open-mouthed outside.
