Chapter 1173: Gochi and Maomao

Chapter 1173: Gochi and Maomao

"You got injured," Baku said, sharp eyes on Gochi, who immediately looked down in shame. 

A half-orc getting injured because of beasts with similar levels was an embarrassment—even if they were not fighter orcs! 

"It wasn't his fault!" Maomao said, pouting. She got a little careless jumping around, kicking monster mobs' heads, and failed to notice two Leapards right behind her. 

Gochi was able to swipe them both down, but one was able to injure him. Gochi's defense equipment had already given way then, and the attack created such a deep gash. It still broke her heart. 

"It doesn't matter," Baku said, voice low and gruff. "Those monsters would've attacked you regardless—no, they would have attacked even more relentlessly." 

Beasts were afraid of orcs and intimidated by half-orcs, but their fluids could cause them to run toward them. This was not just piss, it also included blood. 

An orc and half-orc getting injured inside a mob was not only a shame, it was also particularly dangerous. So… while he did allow the two to enjoy the festivities, sparring with them reminded Baku that he needed to teach them a few lessons.

Anyway, Baku lifted his clawed fingers to taunt them. "Come," he said. "Show me you're no weaklings." 

Before they could begin another round though, a loud noise came from the town proper. "HEY, ALTERRA! Now that karaoke session is over—we're jumping to the next one!" 

The speakers from a distance resounded with the new announcement, and the trio could hear it well due to their sharp hearing. They could even hear those thuds heard when the mic was being passed around. 

They blinked, turning in the direction of the square, listening to the host's words. It seemed like a new portion of the program had begun—something about stand-up or something. 

Maomao immediately lost interest in the spar.
