685 The emotional speech and tempting food

Awa turned around and shouted, “Has everyone gone mad because those two bastards are controlling our food supply? Have your eyes stopped functioning? Did you shoot the arrows while forgetting your people were behind Vincent and me?”

The Dullahans and Awa’s parents had never heard Awa speak so loudly and speak with so much anger in their entire lives.

They soon saw Awa point at the children and the pregnant woman who was behind Vincent.

“Vincent could have used me as his shield, but he didn’t.”

“Vincent could have moved aside and let those behind him die, but he didn’t.”

“Vincent could have let the two arrows that weren’t going to hit him hurt our fellow Dullahans, but he didn’t.”

Each and every word made Dullahan unable to speak. They could only stare at Awa, Vincent, who was on his knees, Zero, who was reabsorbing the vines and tendrils in its body, and Plow, who was trying to hear Vincent tell her he was fine.

“Vincent saved at least ten of our fellow people today.” Awa angrily pointed at Labh and his mother. “Today, Vincent had to save our people from a tragedy because of your idiocy and fear of fighting an injured human.”

“Daughter. Please do not disrespect...”

.....

“No, mother!” Awa interrupted her mother with a firm voice.

“This farce has gone too far.” Awa looked from left to right while continuing, “Vincent came to challenge the current clan leader while being injured, but what did the clan leader and the clan chieftain do?”

Awa looked at the ten archers, the two Dullahans who were assisting the Dullahan acting as if he was poisoned, and the Dullahan who forgot to keep acting because of Awa’s shocking behavior.

“Be proud of the blood coursing in your veins. Be proud of what we stand for. Be proud of the Dullahans beside you. Be proud of your selves.” Awa expressed, hoping her words could influence her fellow Dullahans to doubt everything happing right now.

Awa glared at Labh and his mother. “The two of you should be ashamed to act this way. You two should not be forgiven for threatening the lives of our people.”

“If Vincent moved and our people died, were you perhaps going to blame our people’s death on his hands too?” Awa questioned. She asked the ten archers and questioned them, “Reveal the truth about why you were holding bows instead of spears? Were you going to sleep at night knowing you killed your people? Tell us.”

All of the Dullahans, including Awa’s parents, Labh, and his mother, were shocked by Awa’s sudden change of personality.

Awa was acting fearless after almost experiencing death, and after looking death in the eyes in the form of Orso, a disastrous monster, she could only remain sitting on the chair and await death.

Awa was currently showing the makings of a leader. She spoke fearlessly while stating the truth in a way to get her people to realize the current clan leader and the current clan chieftain was not worthy of following anymore.

Awa was at the center of the attention. She said what was on her chest without fearing the repercussions. She lowered her arm and went to check on Vincent’s condition.

“How dare you speak to us in this manner!” Labh exclaimed angrily.

“What is everyone waiting for? Awa has shown us her true colors. She had betrayed our clan by siding with that slave trader.” The clan chieftain pointed her finger at Awa and ordered with a loud, angered voice, “Shoot more arrows! Kill them!”

“But I do not want to hurt our people.” One of the Dullahans with a bow complained. After hearing Awa’s speech, he felt horrible for almost killing a fellow Dullahan.

“I do not want the food. Kill them yourselves.” Another Dullahan with a bow rejected the order.

One after the other, the Dullahans rejected the order to shoot another arrow each. They didn’t want to harm their people because of a misfire or because Vincent, Awa, Plow, or Zero evaded the arrows.

“Aren’t you all hungry? Kill Awa, her parents for bearing a traitor, and the slave trader along with his two companions. Any participant will be handsomely awarded food.” The clan chieftain tempted.

“Daughter, let’s leave quietly. We can negotiate to be allowed to leave and take our stuff with us. ” Amie told Awa in fear of watching her daughter, who arrived, be killed in less than an hour after her daughter returned home alive.

“No, Amie. You leave the village with our daughter. I do not have a lot of time left in this world. I will negotiate to give you time at the cost of my life.” Lamin ordered.

“I... I understand.” Awa stood up and looked at her people.

The Dullahans were all looking at her with different expressions and emotions. The Dullahans didn’t know what they should do because there had never been a traitor in their midst before.

Furthermore, when it was announced that food was going to be used as a reward, the Dullahans became skeptical after Awa’s words resonated in their thoughts.

Was the leader of the clan or food commanding them?

“Listen to me o proud Dullahans. Bring tables here right now. If the person who has the most food gets to lead us, then bring the tables, and I will fill them with food. I will become your new leader.” Awa ordered in an authoritative voice. She spoke confidently and gave the presence of a leader.

“Daughter. What are you saying right now?” Amie asked.

“Vincent will feed the entire village except those who are fat from taking advantage of us. ” Awa told her mother while repeating what Vincent used to say.

“But sweet daughter... isn’t he dead?” Lamin asked.

“No, father. Vincent is not dead. He killed the great Orso. How can arrows that couldn’t kill the great Orso kill Vincent?” Awa responded.

The Dullahans moved their gaze onto Vincent, yet they didn’t see Vincent attempt to stand up nor move an inch.

The Dullahans looked at each other. They didn’t know who to listen to. The current clan leader and Clan chieftain made dangerous orders while Awa ordered for tables to be brought.

The sounds of footsteps could be heard. A Dullahan approached Awa with his wife, a pregnant woman.

“My wife and my child’s life were saved from the stray arrow.” The man looked at Plow and continued, “Thanks, little fox. You protected us.”

“Plow is a good fox. Plow does not want to see baby in tummy not live.” *Pho*

The husband and wife Dullahans became surprised to hear Plow respond with conceivable words. Their little savior was an intelligent animal. Similarly, the Dullahans who heard Plow speak also became surprised.

“We didn’t have a new Dullahan in years just because the pregnant women did not have enough food to eat.” Awa told the husband of the pregnant woman before Awa grabbed her hand and continued, “Amela, my friend. Vincent can provide food. You will be able to become strong and bear your child after the last born Dullahan is now five years old.”

“Is... is the food poisoned?” The husband of Amela asked.

Awa shook her head. “Do not believe such nonsense. I can taste test the food if you do not trust me.”

“Argh. ” Vincent grunted while standing up. He stretched his back and looked at the couple in front of him. He extended his hand, and a plate with warm food appeared.

The scent of food the Dullahans had never smelled before, yet a scent that their nose suggested food with delicious taste spread along the wind.

*Grumble* One after the other, the sound of stomachs grumbling could be heard. Soon, the stomachs of all the Dullahans, even Awa and Plow’s stomachs, grumbled.

“Eat and get well. ” Vincent said before giving the plate to Awa.

[Tsk. They didn’t thank you.]

-We can not do anything about it. You know how badly they think about me. At least they approached me. It is progress in my book.-

[Sigh. Vincent, do not force yourself too much. You are bleeding, and I am afraid the girls are going to get worried to see you in this state when we return home.]

-Just a little bit more Kazumi. You heard Awa’s speech, right? I couldn’t move when Awa became so passionate about leading her people.-

[Well... I also felt terrible for interrupting Awa’s speech. But at least she does not mind revolting against the current leaders.]

Awa used a fork that was on the plate. She took a bite of finely cut meat drizzled in fragrant gravy. After chewing and swallowing the food, Awa revealed a bright smile.

“I can not tell if it is poisoned or not. I will need to take another bite.” Awa said, surprising everyone while making them more hungry than before at the same time.

As Awa said, she took another piece of finely cut meat. However, instead of repeating the same words and taking a third bite, Awa positioned the plate of food in front of Amela and said, “Enjoy the good food.” with a warm smile and lips covered in gravy.

Amela’s husband received the plate. He gulped and tested the food for poison. He knew Awa, but he couldn’t trust Vincent, even if he and his companions blocked arrows.

*Chomp* “Huh?” The man looked at Awa “Huh?” The man looked at Vincent “Huh?” the man looked at his wife “Huh?”

“What is happening, honey?” Amela worriedly asked. She had never seen her husband act this way.
