章 10: chapter 10: ratata research team
I don't know how long I been here but I never thought I'll meet a interesting species.
During the last time, we both settled things out through gestures as we don't know what we are talking about.
Language barrier was a biggest of a headache since in my previous world. We all communicate using triban language. Although it was in the past.
I learned to communicate them when Rashad teach me to talk.
For me, I looked like a child who was just learning to talk but after few days? No. Months? I learned their language.
Outside the ruin house, I was sitting in the large rock as fire was flickering in front of me. Although I cannot feel heat. This action made me feel like am just a ordinary person even my body was replace by metal.
Moreover I wasn't alone.
There are three ratman around the bonfire and one of them was Rashad, who was inspecting my arm where once my Gatling barrel gun once attach.
"I must say Kim Jung woo. You're people's technology was really enlightened me in my research."
As he checking my arm. I looked at the two ratman who only rub their head in disappointed.
"Professor your being rude to mister Kim Jung woo."
At the ratman with a slender figure said. Rashad stop his doing and cough.
"Sorry my bad."
As he sit next to me, the captain of the expedition named ratcha came to us along with two other ratman.
"Professor, are the preparation is ready?"
"Yeah, there are right there."
As he pointed a 20 large bag, he nodded and gaze for me a while before he left.
"Looks like ratcha isn't forgiving you yet."
When the ratman said that. I only shrug it.
During my stay with the ratman. Ratcha was dissatisfied for staying with me in their camp and he wants me to get out, but Rashad refuse him.
Of course, I also refuse since they have the scientist's module including the drone repair unit which I needed the most.
This keep going until ratcha had enough and wanted a fight, of course. As a soldier of the kingdom of Busan I accepted his duel and won.
Although we don't talk much, we behave like a good dogs but it's a matter of time before things got bad.
"I want to ask Rashad but, why are they keep coming here for that bag and what is it in there."
At my question, Rashad said.
"Those are the explosive that we collected inside the horn worm's stomach. They planning to blow up the worm's stomach to make the worm vomit."
"Isn't that dangerous?"
"Yes, it is but ratcha said it's fine since they have a biologist in their group."
Upon finishing, he took a cap of warm water and continued.
"Anyway, is the little kid still afraid to you?"
As I look at the ratman who was hiding in the wall. I got shook my head and Rashad nodded.
"Well I was hoping that kid finally opened his arms towards you."
"That's impossible Rashad. I almost gave that kid a heart attack."
As the three of them nodded, we continued to talk to each other.
I found out that they are from the country called raskuta. A place of ratman which has a popular that almost double the numbers of my country.
Although they are weak and small. There numbers are not to be estimated and also there Craftsmanship can be rival to dwarves.
Just like me, they been eaten by the horn worm which they are part of ratata research team. And also in the middle of expedition.
What surprised me was they discovered the research facility, not some random pre history building.
At first, they say that it was once the ancient history from their world but that's impossible.
If it's truly an ancient. I should have been dead since my broken body should be rotten inside long ago.
Moreover, they are not just been eaten. The who facility was eaten but due to the large size of the worm.
The facility was demolished as it landed and they lost many ratman.
"It's regrettable that even our chief was killed but luckily we survived."
As he spoke openly to me, it made me happy and at the same time saddened, since none of my people inside the facility was there.
"Anyway, since we been talking about us. How about you Kim Jung woo. You said last time that you are not from this world right?"
In his question, I couldn't help but sigh and said.
"..... I can tell you my tragic story but it won't be interesting as you are."
"What none sense are you saying. A unknown person like you is a interesting to us ratman."
When this ratman said this, others nodded causing me to smiled a little and said.
"Alright, I tell you the story of my life and how a human like me has end up in this cursed body."
