On another side of the forests, there was another group hard at training, and they were led by the very strong orc.
Going outside the walls was allowed, even if they didn’t meet the level requirements, as long as they were within the visuals of the sentry towers and watchmen.
Speaking of, Gochi was a very popular hunting partner to hire. Not only was he very strong, but he was unique and just hit all the curiosity buttons of the Terrans. He also had some knowledge of plants and had stronger senses, so no one would get poisoned when they were with him.
Gochi also got his own fan group. They called themselves… the Furries.
At some point, it got as large as Oslo’s and Fable’s fangroups. Gochi only found out when he was summoned to handle a commotion at the market, only to find out it was a… fan war.
It was mostly girls, but there were also plenty of boys. There were no physical altercations either, but they were yelling a lot, and their noise got so annoying that a few bystanders ended up calling the guards.
"Does your husband have cool-colored eyes?"
"My Golden god has blue eyes!" a Golden Girl yelled with sparkly eyes. "So handsome! So suave!"
In response, a Fable fangirl, calling themselves ’Fableous’ squealed back. "My Fable can dance well! Shakes his hips so well—Kyaaaa~!"
"My Gochi has cute ears and tails! Imagine! Having a pet and a handsome husband at the same time!"
Then he arrived to calm down the commotion, only for everyone’s heads to turn and he found himself running away for fear of his life.
Anyway, that was many days ago and Gochi had somewhat gotten used to the attention (in the sense that he didn’t run away at the sight of the frantic stares).
It would take a while to absorb that this all stemmed from love for him, however. Up until now, it was hard to believe.
Fortunately, outside the territory, everyone would adopt a relatively professional stance. After all, danger lurked at every corner (tho some would argue it was an honor to die while fangirling).
At this moment, Gochi was handling two low-level monsters on his own, debilitating them with his own hands, making them slow enough for the Terrans to deal with them.
"So cool man!" Troy yelled, sending a thumbs up in their direction. Brenda was accompanying them today. Although her level and strength were a bit lower than Gochi, she was able to accompany them well through mobs level 9 or even stronger.
At some point, a monster lunged forward and Gochi kneeled down, his hands ending up on the monster’s belly. He threw it up and it landed between a few Alterrans, though upside down and struggling to get back up.
"Amazing!" Fred said, promptly joining the people attacking the monster, hoping to get the last hit.
Gochi watched as more people leveled up, and he knew later he’d receive a few bonuses for doing his job well.
Gochi earned enough contribution points to be a permanent resident, and with the money he had been saving as a guard and from the war, he would soon be able to buy his own residence.
It was estimated that within the next month or two he’d be able to move out of the dormitory to buy a unit.
Don’t get him wrong, he was enjoying his stay in the dormitory.
He had never thought of a concept like ’sleepovers’ before. In his mind, people slept in a room because they didn’t have money to buy their own space.
However, it was the instinct of every creature to have their own abode. He… he also wanted to have his own space in case more of his kind appeared.
It was an unlikely thing, but he couldn’t stop himself from hoping.
They fought the small mob like this for a while until only a few were left. However, at some point, his ears moved a bit.
His unique eyes sharpened, sensing more enemies had found them.
"Ready," he said, and the party immediately entered a battle stance. A minute later, another small horde of monsters appeared, immediately attacking them without further ado.
