After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 936

The heat wave ended about a week after they settled in this small place. They were extremely happy at first, with many of them just laying down in the sun for a while.

However, the disappearance of the Extreme Heat meant… that there were a lot more monsters all throughout the day.

Not to mention, the basin had began to fill with water again, making it even more attractive to monsters.

Another challenge was that the poisonous bugs were active again. They would bite people out of nowhere, and if the poison got too bad—and if the victim was too weak—then even Cecil’s healing ability could no longer fix it.

Regardless, they knew they could no longer sustain living so openly.

A territory was still necessary in the end and they had no choice but to become nomads once more.

They were lucky that the heat wave, at least, was over and all they had to worry about was the mobs and the insects, which wasn’t easy, but they had better chances now because they had the resources to make sure their bodies had the energy to handle their enemies.

They headed south, handling whatever the world decided to throw at them, losing a few, but overall keeping strong.

Eventually, they found walls and sentries and their hearts lifted. They used the last bit of strength to rush forward, falling down in relief as they passed the threshold.

[Welcome to Belluga Village! Please pay 15 Copper]

They couldn’t stay on the ground for long though. They realized they were in a public place and they had to drag themselves to the side, admiring the activity that greeted them as soon as they entered.

Unexpectedly, people started approaching them with food and drinks, selling the goods for affordable prices!!

They naturally bought as much as they could carry, and their eyes teared up a bit as they consumed the most delicious food they had since migrating here!

They gobbled up their food with such a heart, not noticing that a group of handsome men had arrived.

"Milord! Sir Suide! Sir Orland!"

They paused their eating (some were still chewing) and they raised their heads to see a striking trio standing not far from them, just watching them eat like idiots at the side of the road.

The one in the middle—the shortest one—stepped forward with a smile, heading straight to Esias.

"Welcome," The androgynous man said. "My name is Raine. I am the lord here.

"Would you like to join me for some tea?"

…

Like Belluga, Shrao Village also received a lot of the Terran refugees from the North.

After all, there were also plenty of Villages North of Shrao Village, all of which were Terran territories.

Among the refugees happened to be Sheila’s family or, more specifically, her father and her brother, Albert and Sheldon, respectively.

However, even if he knew, so what? What could he do? The two father-and-son could only succumb and live like beggars for a while.

During the heat wave, their old territory was attacked. It was by aborigines. In their perspective, these aborigines were incredibly strong, and even their strongest guards were no match to any of them!

The father-son duo somehow managed to escape with all their limbs intact. They didn’t even look back, not feeling too bad for the lord who was eventually killed by the enemies.

They had been traveling for a few days with hundreds of other refugees—a mix from various territories— and, like them, they cried as soon as they finally saw a wall standing strong.

Then they entered and saw how… nice the place was, and they couldn’t help but sob even more.

When Albert cried, his whole face scrunched. When he tried wiping his tears, it ended up spreading it instead. Sheldon, on the other hand, sniffled a lot, but was otherwise very quiet.

"Let’s hope this place is better," Albert said, and the others nodded.

"I wonder how sister is…" Sheldon mumbled as he looked around the nice place. "I hope she’s alright."

Albert nodded, hoping that the girl would survive all this. At the very least, she should be able to handle her own wounds, right?

But… he still worried a lot. That girl was too meek. She was definitely being bullied!

What he didn’t know was that Sheila was indeed being ’bullied’ but in a very, very, different way by her husband.
