Chapter 26 The Upper Body is a Human, the Lower Body is a Horse

As Kane chatted with Burton, the door to the tavern was pushed open.

A new guest?

A clatter of hooves, heavy footsteps, the clash of armor in movement.

The heavy footsteps made Kane look over his shoulder.

How could there be such a race? What kind of structure was this?

That was the thought that came to Kane’s mind when he saw who it was.

It was a centaur.

A fantasy race with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a horse.

The new race that he had never seen before made Kane couldn’t help but observe.

The horse’s body shape was similar to that of the horses in the original world. It was about 2.7 meters.

The human body plus the horse was taller than Kane, about two meters.

He was dressed in a light knight’s armor. On his lower body was horse armor and he was wearing a helmet.

This centaur could be said to be covered in

armor.

From this, it could be seen that the strength and endurance of the centaur was very outstanding.

But the skin that emerged from the horse’s body was not leathery like the horse’s. It was closer to the skin of a human.

The centaur walked over to the bar counter. Kane’s gaze was covert, and he was observing everything in an instant.

This was the observation skill of a hunter.

“Need anything?” Burton saw the centaur coming over and stood at the bar.

Dwarfs did not like being looked down on. It was enough to stand on a stool with ordinary people. With such big men, one could only stand on a table.

The centaur removed its helmet.

The long, flowing red hair spilled down.

This was a centaur woman.

The red hair and exquisite face made her look like a big sister. Her red lips parted slightly, and her voice was mature.

“Is there a room here for halflings?” She tucked her helmet under her arm and smoothed her hair.

Burton couldn’t help but sound proud when she asked, “Of course. This is the Great Golden Tooth, any race can find a place to rest here. I have two rooms on the first floor specially for halflings.”

Kane remembered that the halfling was a race with a human upper body and a beast lower body.

Moreover, this race called themselves Halflings no matter what their lower bodies were and rarely fought among themselves. They would only be divided into tribes because of the difference in their lower bodies.

She was relieved to hear Burton’s answer. “It’s too difficult for a centaur to find a suitable room.”

“Hahaha, don’t worry. There’s more than just rooms here. I also have a centaur-flavored recipe. Do you need some? This is definitely authentic.”

“Of course.” The centaur woman’s face broke into a charming smile. “But before I do, may I ask if you have an explorer here named Kane LaFleur?”

Looking for me? I don’t know you.

He saw Burton’s eyes drift over.

The centaur woman saw Burton’s eyes on Kane. She turned to look at him.

“Are you Kane?”

Despite his confusion, Kane said, “Yes, I’m Kane. What can I do for you?”

The centauri woman was a little surprised. She replied, “I didn’t expect my luck to be so good. Two troublesome matters were completed at the same time.”

She held out her hand to Kane. “Let me introduce myself. My name is Clea. Clea Perec. I’ve just become an Explorer.”

Although she didn’t say why she was looking for him, Kane shook her hand. “I’m sure you already know my name, but I believe this is the first time I’ve seen you. If I’ve seen a beauty like you before, I won’t forget.”

“Mr. Kane is really good with words. I just became an Explorer and don’t have a team yet. It just so happens that someone from the council recommended you to me, so I wanted to come and see if you were suitable to be a teammate.”

He did not expect someone to come looking for him today after he had just filled up the form yesterday.

Clea then smiled. “But my first impression of Mr. Kane is indeed good. So will you team up with me?”

“Of course.” Kane’s first impression of her was indeed good. Let’s team up and try it out. “But you don’t have to call me sir. Just Kane.”

“Okay, Kane. You can call me Clea, too.”

Kane nodded and pointed to his shoulder. “But as you can see, Clea, I’ve just been injured. I need another two days before I can continue exploring.”

“It doesn’t matter. I’m not in a hurry. I can also learn about each other’s combat habits.” She waved her hand. “But Kane, have you already been in the (Crystal Arena)?”

“Yes, I only cleared the first level yesterday, but I paid the price.”

You passed the first level alone? Looks like Kane is very powerful.

Burton was delighted that Kane had found his teammate. “Congratulations. It’s so delightful to see two powerful young people forming a team in front of me. You two chat. I’ll cook for you. Congratulations.”

Burton left them alone and jumped off the bar counter.

“Uncle Dwarf is very friendly.”

“Burton is a very nice man.”

Clea thought for a moment. “So, Kane, will you do me a small favor? Show me my room?”

He handed Kane the keys.

“No problem. Follow me.” The number on the key was 1-13, diagonally across from Kane’s room.

He led Clea to Room 113 and opened the door.

The moment he entered, he felt that it was large and spacious.

It was about three times the size of Kane’s room, but considering Clea’s size, it might be better to say that it wasn’t big.

Kane realized that Clea hadn’t come in. She was standing in the doorway.

What about it?

Peering in.

He saw Clea staring at Youyou on the ground, her eyes sparkling, her face slightly red.

Youyou had been hiding behind Kane and Clea hadn’t noticed him since she was so tall.

But as she followed behind Kane, she saw Youyou.

Completely subdued.

Youyou saw Clea staring at him and scratched his head. Antenna—?

“Do you want Youyou to check your entire body?” The child-like voice was filled with doubt.

The stars in Clea’s eyes were about to turn into shooting stars.

It could also talk. It was so cute.

“Can I hug you?” she asked cautiously.

Antenna—? Youyou turned to look at Kane. Kane shrugged helplessly and nodded at Youyou.

“Alright then.”

Hearing Youyou’s answer, Clea picked it up instantly.

She rubbed her face against Youyou’s head, looking blissful.

“Master, it’s so hard.” Youyou felt uncomfortable being pressed against the armor on Clea’s chest.

Hearing Youyou’s voice, Clea immediately lowered it to the ground and said in embarrassment, “I’m sorry. I forgot I was still wearing armor.”

“It’s okay, because Youyou is hard too.” As he spoke, he even turned around to look at Clea.

“You’re so cute.”

“Thank you for the compliment. You’re very beautiful too.”

Hearing Youyou’s praise, Clea fell into bliss.

Youyou’s conquest.

Big success. Kane watched as Clea turned from an intellectual older sister to a love-struck girl.

Women were often capricious.
