Adventures Of A Goblin

Chapter 234 What She Is To Orun



The Minotaur leader, had observed Orun and Wildria, the way they communicate with each other, in terms of speech and physical activities, convinced the Minotaur leader that Orun and Wildria were partners.

Partners in this term, means being a couple, but the monsters do not use the word couple because..... They are not exactly the loving kind of race.

They pair with each other for one reason, to sire an offspring that will continue their legacy, not so that they will live the rest of their lives together, with promises of till death do them apart.

Orun and Wildria, looked at each other, then at the Minotaur leader who had asked them, then looked back at each other.

The both of them were confused, not knowing what sort of reply should be given to the Minotaur leader, and even curious on what had him assuming them as partners.

"what is this? Do both of you not know what being a partner is".

The reaction they gave the Minotaur leader, had him questioning if they have never had a partner, and are foreign to the word.

They knew what a partner was, or at least one of them does, while the other, is still not sure of what definition of partner the Minotaur leader is referring to.

"when you say partner, do you mean physically intimate with each other, or partner as in a pair with a common goal".

Orun asked, wanting to be sure of what the Minotaur leader was talking about before giving him a reply.

"i mean the one with physical intimacy".

Orun was not quick to answer, turning his head toward Wildria before turning it over to the Minotaur leader to finally reply him.

"we are partners who are well on our way to being like family, tied together by the same goal, the desire to survive".

Orun does not believe that there is more to his relationship with Wildria, other than just being the first monster kind he met.

He has bonded with her through the times they spent together, and have come to greatly care for her and her well-being, but that is all there is to their relationship.

Things like love, of sexual affection, are thoughts he never had whenever he thinks of her, not because her true form is similar to that of a big scary monster, or because her current appearance looks womanly and matured, that is not it at all.

He never had such feelings because..... He does not understand what it meant to harbor such feelings.

Orun has.....had a rough and tough time growing up alone, having to think of nothing else other than where he would get his next meal from back when he was on earth.

He lost his parents at an early age, and has since being alone, having to scavenge for his survival through the efforts he put in.

Coming to this world, there have not been that much changes to Orun's life, except on this world, he is fighting for his survival on a much larger scale.

Those are his experiences so far, from earth to him getting into this world, with his life in the dungeon.

The idea of a feeling that binds one to another, with oaths of everlasting and eternity together is...... Unknown to Orun.

Perhaps in the near future, Orun might understand what it means to be attracted to someone in a way that one who is in love does, but for now, he has other important matters to attend to, matters that requires the persistence of his race.

"why then are you both acting like you are partners? Do not confuse me".

The Minotaur leader felt that Orun's and Wildria's way of communicating with each other, was unnatural.

No matter what angle or in what form he looks at it from, a proclaimed Goblin, and a Wyvern being friendly...... Not only does it not sound natural, it also sums up as unbelievable, if he had not witnessed it himself that is.

"because we understand each other well enough to act comfortably around each other. Is that supposed to be a problem".

Orun was not demanding a reply from the Minotaur leader, nor was he making it compulsory that he be answered, but the way he asked, made the Minotaur leader think otherwise.

"n.....no......it...it.....it is not".

The Minotaur leader brokenly answered, making Orun wonder why he was speaking like that.

"can you assist me over to him".

Wildria has realized how tough it was for her to move with human like feet in her current condition, and so she asked for Orun who is currently holding her hand, to help her walk to where the Minotaur leader stood.

That was also where she was heading to when she fell flat on her face the first time.

The Minotaur leader stood his ground as he watched Orun assist Wildria in walking over to where he was standing.

On the outside, he looked confident and firm, but on the inside, he was beguiled with curiosity.

Why would she want to face him head on after Orun had introduced them as the new recruit?

There is a chance that she wanted to intimidate him and his kind into submission, forcing them to leave of their own will.

The Minotaur leader would love more than anything for himself to be rid of Orun, and to never have an encounter with him ever again.

With the help of Orun, Wildria managed to get to the Minotaur leader without tripping on her feet.

She got to where he stood, and raised her head up to look him in the eye, or at least she wanted to look him in the eye.

The distance between the Minotaur leader's eyes, and Wildria's eye range, were far apart, and not even her stretching her head up could resolve it.

"can you, look down here so I can see your eyes".

He shrugged his tense body, tilting his head downward as Wildria had told him to.

"what do you think of his dreams!".

Her face indicated how serious she was about her question, and her tone, conveyed to the Minotaur leader, that what Wildria wanted to hear, is not an answer coated in lies or fear, but a genuine answer on how the Minotaur leader really feels about the question she just asked him.
