Although Amdoc talked a lot, the dwarves still seemed bewildered. No, to be more precise, they couldn't believe what they had just heard.
One person then spoke out: " Village chief… so… we don't have to be slaves, right?"
Amdoc laughed and said with great joy: "Yes, master said that everyone is free but we still have to obey the laws of this kingdom, understand?"
Those people were silent.
1 second…
5 seconds…
10 seconds..
"HO!!!"
"HO!!!"
They suddenly shouted excitedly, their shouts resounding everywhere. Even though they were only Dwarves, the tallest being only about 130cm, their screams were extremely loud.
Amdoc saw that they were happy, so he did not stop them. He Knew that they had struggled to survive for hundreds of years in misery.
Although there were people who could leave the village they would still be enslaved by other races, so it was like they were living in hell.
The people in the village were also not happy, on the contrary, they also felt the same suffering as slaves.
The resources and food were severely lacking, they even had to go hungry for many days or people would starve to death.
The surrounding village was covered with fog and monsters. Even if they went outside to look for food and resources, they would be killed by monsters.
Amdoc had seen his village go from more than 5,000 people to just over 200 people.
Now, these 200 people were the last hope of the Dwarves village. Luckily they met a good master, no, to be more precise, a great master.
They did not need to be slaves to be free, of course they still had to obey the laws of this kingdom.
But compared to being slaves, right now they were no different from nobles. They had houses, jobs, wages, and even food…
Seeing everyone happy, Amdoc felt like he was more than 100 years younger.
Shala then explained to everyone the concept of time. The Dwarves were a creative and learning race, so they quickly learned how to tell the time in this place.
In the end they were allotted housing.
Amdoc stood in front of a house with a very luxurious appearance. No, in fact, this was just an ordinary European-style house.
Although ordinary, for the Dwarves, this was a lavish palace.
Amdoc looked down at his dirty feet and frowned, he then immediately used magic to clean his legs.
No, cleaning his two legs was not enough, he wanted to clean his whole body. He didn't want his filth to contaminate this wonderful house.
In fact, before entering Hikaru's palace, Amdoc had used magic to clean himself once.
Now he used magic to clean himself a second time which caused his mana to drain.
After all, he was only a Dwarf, his magic ability was limited, as it was not as high as adventurers.
After cleaning himself a second time, Amdoc panted from exhaustion. But when he saw the house in front of him, he seemed to forget his fatigue, he then tried to open the wooden door and enter.
Amdoc entered a small house about 70 square meters. Inside were two bedrooms and two small empty rooms for a bizarre object resembling a chair.
Amdoc glanced then toured the house. It could be said that this was the most wonderful house he had ever lived in since he was born until now.
This house was made of a rock-like material that was so strong that even strong winds could not shake it.
Amdoc remembered the makeshift house made of scrap wood in his village. Thanks to the hands of a skilled craftsman like him, his house was also considered the most beautiful in the village.
However, compared to this house, his house was no different from a pile of garbage.
The floor was paved with extremely cool wood. The house had ventilation holes, inside the house did not feel uncomfortable or stuffy.
Amdoc went to the bedroom, in the room was a large bed. He lay on the bed, and as he felt the softness and warmth of the bed it made him forget all his fatigue.
Amdocs eyes were wet.
Yes, he cried because he felt so happy. This was the best bed he had ever slept in.
In all his life, he had never dared to wish to live in such a wonderful house. Of course he would not want to return to the old village, and live in a shabby house, just a strong wind would collapse it.
In his heart Amdoc secretly swore that he would work as hard as he could to stay in this house forever.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
Amdoc was thinking when suddenly someone knocked on the door.
"Village chief! You need to come out!"
Amdoc was startled, he sat up then he hurriedly went outside. When he opened the door, a group of dwarves had gathered in front of his house.
"Village chief, master is distributing food, hurry up and come and receive it."
"Yes, the food is delicious. It's the first time in my life that I've eaten something so delicious."
"Village chief, hurry up! If you're late, you'll have to wait for a long time."
All the dwarves kept talking and this made it a little hard for him to hear what they were saying.
After a while, Amdoc finally understood that their master was sharing food.
Amdoc immediately went to the community house. When he got there, there was a group of Dwarves lined up in an orderly fashion.
They were receiving a tray of food from the food dispenser, the scent wafting through the air made everyone in the queue behave themselves.
Amdoc took a breath, he felt that the scent was so good that it made him salivate.
He immediately wiped his mouth with his hand, and looked around, fortunately no one saw him salivating.
If someone saw his expression just now, he was afraid that his reputation as the village chief would be ruined.
Amdoc joined the line of people, who saw him but then pretended not to see him.
Amdoc was angry but did not say anything, he secretly scolded the people who saw the food and forgot that he was the village chief.
Normally, when distributing food in the village, he was always the first person to eat.
Now it was different, the scent of the food was too alluring, so no one wanted to give up their place to someone else even if that person was the village chief.
Amdoc pretended to cough a few times.
"Cough! Cough!"
The dwarves were lined up and sweating, they of course noticed Amdoc's appearance but they didn't want to make room for him.
Amdoc frowned, and he pretended to cough a few more times.
"Cough! Cough!"
"Cough! Cough!"
"Cough! Cough!"
…
Amdoc coughed until his throat was about to tear but still no one noticed him, this made him so angry that his face turned red.
Suddenly, a guard Lizard approached and asked: "Old man… I see that you are coughing a lot, do you have any illness? If you are sick, you need to be isolated and not be in contact with other people."
Amdoc: "…"
This Lizard of course didn't know what an epidemic was, but Shala had taught all the other Lizards about the fear of disease.
Besides, she also taught them to know some symptoms of diseases such as coughs, fever, etc.
Therefore, when this Lizard saw Amdoc constantly coughing, he had to quickly isolate Amdoc from the community, to avoid letting the disease spread uncontrollably.
Amdoc felt like crying, of course he knew what an epidemic was, anyway he came from a creative race and was constantly gathering new knowledge.
"It's not… it's just… I feel a bit cold." Amdoc hastily explained.
"Cold?" The Lizard remembered what Shala had said.
Shala: "Remember, sometimes when infected people feel cold, it's because they have a fever. It is also a sign that the pathogen is growing, we have to quickly isolate that person from the community."
That Lizard, after remembering what Shala had taught them, immediately covered his nose with a cloth, then pointed his spear at Amdoc.
"Sorry, but you seem to be sick, please return to your own home, immediately."
The Lizard finished speaking and motioned for the other Lizards to gather to deal with Amdoc.
The other Lizards were in charge of moving the Dwarves around Amdoc to another place away from him.
Around Amdoc at this moment, there were 3 Lizards holding spears pointing at him.
Amdoc: "…"
Are you fucking serious? I just want to eat a delicious meal, why is it so difficult?
"I.. I am not sick. I'm just…"
"Sorry, we don't want to hear explanations. Someone will come to confirm whether you are sick or not…" The Lizard group didn't let Amdoc finish.
Their attitude changed to the point that it scared Amdoc. Just now, they were calmly instructing people to line up to receive food.
But now their attitude took a 180 degree turn. Their eyes were filled with worry and fear, they didn't even dare to approach him.
Amdoc could only sigh as he returned home, of course he went home under the supervision of 3 other Lizards.
…
"Hahahaha…"
"Hahahaha…"
In Amdocs house, in the living room, Shala laughed to the point of tears after hearing Amdocs story.
"You are unlucky, Amdoc…hahahaha…"
Amdocs face was red with shame, he didn't think that as old as he was he would encounter a case where he didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
As soon as Shala heard that the Lizards were guarding the area where the Dwarves lived, and that Amdoc might have fallen ill, she quickly went to his house.
However, the story really made her laugh to the point of tears.
But Shala also felt that the Lizards did a good job, since they paid attention to small details like Amdoc coughing or feeling cold.
This proved that the Lizards were trying their best to work, and that they were not lazy at all.
Indeed it was so, after feeling the wonderful life in this place, no one wanted to go out there to survive with the fog and monsters.
Or they even felt that other kingdoms, even ancient ones, couldn't compare to life in this place.
Because in this place, they gained respect, and they were not enslaved.
