In the forest, a young man was seen walking down the street holding the hand of a beautiful woman. The young man was none other than Zhen, and the woman he was holding was Lyan.
As he was walking, a small axe shot towards them. Zhen who noticed that, pulled Lyan into his arms and jumped to the side avoiding the axe.
When Zhen had just landed on the ground, the bushes swayed. Seven small creatures came out from behind the bush while carrying weapons in his hands. They then surrounded Zhen and Lyan while unsheathing their weapons.
Zhen who saw that widened his eyes in surprise. He rubbed his eyes a few times before shouting in excitement.
"Well, I didn't expect to see the dwarf in the fairy tale. It's amazing hahaha...." Zhen shouted in excitement while jumping up and down.
Lyan who was looking at Zhen's behavior felt surprised, she then looked at Zhen with an astonished expression.
"What did he do?" asked Lyan to himself.
Zhen then ran over to one of the dwarves and extended his hand.
"Hi introduce, my name is Zhen Xions. You can call me Zhen, what is your name?." asked Zhen with a smile.
The dwarf looked hesitantly at Zhen's helping hand, he looked at his companions before finally welcoming Zhen's helping hand.
"I'm Stopper Drugbons, call me Stopper" said the dwarf.
"Well, he answered my words.., wow." said Zhen shouting so that made the dwarf jump in surprise and then ran away.
Lyan looked at Zhen with a strange look, before asking about his condition.
"Zhen are you okay?" asked Lyan anxiously.
"Of course, I'm so happy to get acquainted with the dwarves." Zhen replied with a smile.
"I thought you were going to make us slaves" said Stopper.
"Well, why do you think that?." Zhen asked back.
"Because humans often do that" said a dwarf with a long, white beard.
"I won't do that, I can promise by making you my friends" Zhen said as he reached out to the dwarf.
The dwarf greeted Zhen's helping hand with his small hand and smiled.
"Oh yeah, what's your name?" asked Zhen.
"Hermon Drugbons." replied the dwarf.
"Then who are they?" asked Lyan who was already near them while staring at the other dwarves.
Zhen was shocked when he realized Lyan was near them. Likewise with the dwarf named Hermon, he even jumped backwards.
"You surprised me." said Zhen in annoyance.
"My heart almost fell off you know" said Hermon, irritatedly holding his chest.
Lyan then chuckled, the other dwarves who saw the incident laughed as well. After laughing, they started to introduce themselves.
"I'm Flord Drugbons" said the burly dwarf.
"I'm Trisper Drugbons" said the dwarf holding a small axe.
"Gribe Drugbons" said the fat dwarf.
"I'm Onery Drugbons" said the dwarf, who wears glasses.
"And I'm Plorind Drugbons" said the youngest dwarf excitedly.
"Oh yes, I'm Lyan Astron." said Lyan introducing himself.
After that introduction, the dwarves took Zhen and Lyan to their residence. During the journey the dwarves told him about his daily life.
Shortly after, they had arrived at the residence of the dwarves. The dwarves that were in the residence immediately came out, they intended to welcome the seven dwarves back to their residence.
But when they were outside the residence, they were surprised to see the seven dwarves carrying two humans with them.
"Can you explain all this Hermon?." asked the dwarf leader with a sharp look.
"Yes, why did you bring them here?." asked a rogue-faced dwarf as he pointed at Zhen with an arrow.
Hermon nodded his head, then began to explain why he brought Zhen and Lyan back to their residence.
Hermon recounts the incident when they met Zhen and Lyan.
"And now we have become friends, so I brought him here. Besides, I don't feel any evil intentions from them." said Hermon calmly.
"Yes, that's right." said the six dwarves together.
"I can guarantee you, they're not like those goddamn green creatures" Stopper said.
"Yes, that's right, we can guarantee that." said the six dwarves again simultaneously.
"What do you mean by green creatures?" asked Zhen curiously.
"They are goblins, they always attack our residence." the dwarf leader replied slightly hesitantly.
"Yes that's right, it's a good thing that we still have the ability to fight them, even though many of our friends were killed" said the evil-faced dwarf with a sad expression.
"We can help you face them, right Lyan" Zhen said with a smile and looked at Lyan.
"Hmm that's right." Lyan nodded her head with a smile.
"Thank you sir" said the dwarf leader and kneeled before Zhen.
The dwarves who saw their leader kneel before Zhen, kneeled down, including the fierce-looking dwarf and the seven dwarves who were with Zhen.
"Hey hey hey wake up, don't kneel to me, aren't we friends" Zhen said as he helped the dwarf leader to stand up.
Lyan who saw it all, looked at Zhen in awe. Sweet smile on his face.
'This is my man, hihihi.' said Lyan inwardly.
The dwarves then rose to their feet, bright smiles adorning their faces.
"Master, the goblins are coming in a few days. If you are pleased, we can build a residence for the master next to our residence." said the evil-faced dwarf enthusiastically.
"Hmm so." said Zhen, nodding his head.
The fierce-looking Dwarf then ordered the other dwarves to build a residence for Zhen. The dwarves who heard the order immediately did as they were told.
During the construction, Zhen and Lyan chatted with the dwarf leader. From the conversation that Zhen knew the name of the dwarf leader and also the rogue-faced dwarf who was now organizing the development.
The leader of the dwarves was named Cloris Drugbons, while the dwarf-faced Daren Drugbons.
A few hours later, when it was late afternoon.
The dwarves had finished building a residence for Zhen and Lyan. Daren then walked over to Zhen.
"Master, the residence is finished being built, you can see it" Daren said, looking down.
"Let's see, and stop calling me master, aren't we friends" Zhen said with a smile.
"Ba.. good sir." said Daren who made Zhen smile wryly.
Daren then led Zhen to the residence that had been completed. Zhen looked at the residence in awe, he then thanked the dwarves.
"Thank you everyone." Zhen said with a smile.
"No problem sir." said the dwarves together.
They chatted for a while, before dispersing back towards their respective residences leaving Zhen and Lyan in front of the residence.
Zhen then wrapped his hands around Lyan's waist, then entered the residence with a smile.
