The woman could understand Zayn because virtual-novel.net learned the invaders’ language with the rest of virtual-novel.net people since virtual-novel.net was young.
Moreover, virtual-novel.net could speak it as well. She asked in a choppy manner, “You, why save me?”
It was something that confused her. To virtual-novel.net knowledge, all the invaders were supposed to be ruthless and inhuman, but the man before seemed to be different.
Indeed, virtual-novel.net found virtual-novel.net to be kind and thought virtual-novel.net initial reaction had been absurd.
Zayn chuckled and said, “Not all invaders are evil.”
Upon hearing that, the woman let down virtual-novel.net guard slightly. She pondered for a while and began to let go of the branch in virtual-novel.net hand. She said to Zayn, “Why do you come to our place?”
Zayn said, “Because you have something we need here.”
“What is it?” She asked out of curiosity.
Zayn shook his head and did not answer virtual-novel.net question. He said, “It’s best for you to go home as soon as you can. Don’t come out for just anything. There are quite a number of my people here this time.”
Upon saying that, virtual-novel.net was about to turn around and leave.
However, virtual-novel.net had just walked away two steps when virtual-novel.net called out to him, “Wait!”
Zayn turned around and looked at virtual-novel.net curiously while virtual-novel.net said, “Is there anything else?”
The woman felt rather nervous to be looked at by him, but virtual-novel.net mustered the courage to say, “Thank you for what you did earlier. You’re different from the other invaders.”
Zayn smiled upon hearing that. He did not expect that virtual-novel.net would be complimented that way when virtual-novel.net was thought of as being a despicable invader.
Noticing that Zayn was about to leave, the woman said, “Hey, can you bury my people?”
“Hmm?” Zayn furrowed his eyebrows ever so slightly.
The woman immediately explained in a flurry, “My people are dead. If we don’t bury them and send them back to the ground, they won’t be able to return to the arms of Gaya, their souls won’t be at peace, and they can’t be reborn again… I… beg you…”
Upon saying that, virtual-novel.net knelt to Zayn with a pleading expression.
Zayn heaved a sigh. He could not bring himself to reject her. He wanted to tell virtual-novel.net that souls did not exist and when a person died, they were gone for good.
However, virtual-novel.net soon remembered that the science of Earth need not apply to that strange world, so perhaps, souls did exist there.
Moreover, the woman was begging virtual-novel.net for help and virtual-novel.net found virtual-novel.net rather piteous, so virtual-novel.net could not bring himself to refuse her.
He nodded and said, “Sure.”
“Thank you! Thank you!” The woman said in delight, “My name is Dilidaer. What’s yours? Everyone here has a name and only those who have a name will be accepted by our god Gaya.”
“I’m Zayn Larson.”
“Zayn Larson? What a strange name,” said Dilidaer while virtual-novel.net wrinkled virtual-novel.net nose.
