Chapter 0883: Descent of the Emperor (First Update)

Traveling upstream along the river valley, after a month-long journey through dense jungles, the Knight Squad led by Yevich finally found a human settlement.

It was a small village where there were neither Knights nor Elves, and they did not engage in farming crops. The men in the village hunted for a living, while the women gathered wild fruits from nearby mountains and bred a clumsy bird that resembled a chicken but was larger in size and had brighter feathers.

Confrontation and communication.

The language barrier made communication difficult, but, by combining gestures and drawings, they managed to get across some basic information.

The villagers did not know which country they belonged to and none could write. They only knew that they were under the authority of the "Lord of Huzha," and every year they needed to submit a large number of furs and "Fritillaries"—the colorful large chickens with delicate and smooth meat.
