33 Demi-Human (1/2)

When the guild members gathered around to talk to the semi-naked women, they noticed something weird. Some of the women had animal ears and tails. The guild members were shocked by the sight. When Lux saw those ears he mumbled to himself.

”Demi-Humans.”

Some of the demi-humans who had better hearing than most trembled slightly when they heard Lux's mumbling. On the other hand, when Raymond and the players saw the demi-humans their eyes sparkled in delight.

”Hey, do you guys see that it's fox eared ladies!”

”OMG, so cute. How come we didn't have the option to be demi-humans I would've liked to have bunny ears as well.”

”So this is that kinda MMO.”

The players were getting a bit rowdy as they stared at the demi-humans, while the other guild members were looking at the demi-humans in fear and awe. This has a lot to do with the stories about demi-humans told in the human kingdoms. Most of which were grossly exaggerated. On the other hand, the demi-humans see humans as evil people that hunt down their kind and make them slaves.

”What are you guys doing? Bring them out first before questioning them. The smell here is getting unbearable.” Hearing Raymond's voice the guild members snap out of their surprise and guided the ladies outside.

...

Once the group was outside of the cave, they could see the full glory of the semi-naked women. Five of which were demi-humans. When Raymond saw that the guild members were hesitating on how to talk to the demi-humans, he spoke to them.

”Everyone should check on the others, I'll be the one to talk to the demi-humans.” Without hearing their response Raymond approached one of the demi-humans. It was a girl with fox ears, and three fluffy looking tails. She looked at Raymond warily and got into a defensive position.

Raymond also scanned the girl. He really wanted to touch her ears and tails, but for now, Raymond held himself back as he noticed the wounds on the girl. Raymond then extended his hand and used a healing spell on the fox eared girl.

The girl was surrounded by a white light, and then to her surprise her wounds had healed almost instantaneously. Raymond then proceeded to heal the other demi-humans as well. Once he was done he spoke to all five of them at once.

”It's alright now, I'm not here to hurt you.” Hearing his soothing voice, as well as feeling the full effects of his charm skill, the demi-humans felt relieved. The demi-humans then started to tear up while some of them went ahead and cried. All except for one who looked devoid of emotions.

”Okay then, let's get you guys back to my base so that we can get you some proper clothes and food.” Raymond showed a reassuring smiling face to the demi-humans.

”Thank you.” One of the demi-humans bowed her head and the others followed suit except for one. Seeing that one of them wasn't responding to outside stimulus made Raymond sigh.

”I see... You are no longer, you.” Raymond approached another fox eared girl that was smaller than the other one. She had only one tail and her eyes were ruby red, she was pretty cute but unfortunately, she was already long gone. Seeing Raymond approaching the little girl, the fox eared girl with three tails remembered what the humans were talking about a while ago.

”We will save those that can be saved, and we will grant mercy to those that can't.” When she remembered those words she immediately blocked Raymond's path.
