Elvis handed Gu Mengmeng to Lea while he led all the males in the tribe on a hunt for prey, as a way to announce the start of a new year.

Lea called one of Nina’s partners back. He asked him to bring Nina away and take care of her well so as not to let her be an eyesore here. Or else, Gu Mengmeng might take a stone to smash her again but this time round, no one would stop her.

That partner naturally was more than glad so he hurriedly carried the unconscious Nina away with utmost cautiousness.

After Nina left, Gu Mengmeng then asked unhappily, “Why did Elvis stop me?”

Lea laughed in a too profound way to be understood as he inched closer to Gu Mengmeng sneakily, saying, “Call me ‘Daddy Lea’ and I’ll tell you.”

Gu Mengmeng rolled her eyes and said, “Say it if you want, I can just ask Elvis when he comes back.”

Lea sighed, feeling wronged. Then, he stretched his arm suddenly from behind Gu Mengmeng to hold on to the side of her face with his long fingers, pulling her to himself. Gu Mengmeng’s face was just nicely pressed against Lea’s lips that he had positioned long ago. After a quick peck, Lea released Gu Mengmeng before sighing deeply, like a cat who had succeeded in a sneak attack. He said before Gu Mengmeng could have the chance to turn hostile,

“The female beauty pageant is coming soon. Nina has always represented Saint Nazaire to attend the event for the past years. If we suddenly change the representative for this year, it’ll be hard to avoid others’ speculation.”

Gu Mengmeng was taken aback as she said, “Why must Nina go? Why can’t Sandy go? Did you see how much prettier she got after she slimmed down? She’s definitely a lot prettier than Nina that ugly monster, alright?”

Lea shook his head and said, “When winter ends, the body of a female represents the capability of the entire tribe. The fullness of a female implies that the food in the tribe is enough. This is also an important aspect that a male will consider when joining a tribe. Moreover….Nina’s a complete female. You’ll never know what a complete female mean to a male.”

Gu Mengmeng slapped her thigh and shouted, “I’m also a complete female. If worse comes to worse, I’ll go.”

Lea, however, shook his head. He lightly touched Gu Mengmeng’s face and said, “The reason why I decided to take Nina in back then was to delay the time your identity gets exposed to the public. Since Sauder received the information already, I believe that the others probably had heard something too. But they fear Elvis’s strength and won’t dare to offend him. The beauty pageant this year is the best time to sound us out.”

Gu Mengmeng frowned and asked, “What do you mean? Say words that a human can understand!”

Lea smiled and swayed his large tail, wrapping Gu Mengmeng’s waist before pulling her towards himself. He continued, “Normally, the tribe with the messenger of the Beast Deity will choose to vigorously propagate the presence of the messenger of the Beast Deity so as to raise their own reputation and to attract strong males to pledge allegiance to them. The beauty pageant is the most appropriate time. So, if either Sandy or Maya attends the beauty pageant this year instead of Nina, everyone will start guessing what situation are we in such that we will allow a half-orc to attend the beauty pageant even if we’ve complete females.”

“There’s a possibility that Nina died during winter, right? Didn’t you mention before that many people die during winter?” Gu Mengmeng was not pleased.

Lea smiled as he pushed Gu Mengmeng’s little head gently. “You still don’t know the importance of a complete female to a tribe. Let’s put it this way, if you’re not present, even if we’ve to give everyone in the tribe as food to Nina, nobody will frown even a little. In other words, unless everyone in Saint Nazaire dies, we won’t let a complete female die from hunger.”
