After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 1061

The aborigines naturally knew what this meant. They all thoroughly listened to the rules. They weren’t particularly smart, but they learned—through years of practice—that they had to be familiar with these things if they wanted to have the chaotic fun they were used to having.

The challenge was part of the fun, in a sense, and ’overcoming the rules’ in the literal sense gave them another sense of ’high’.

Of course, they were just excited to wage war already so they could erase all that and just do whatever they wanted.

In any case, knowing the rules meant they knew that Uttot was sent to prison.

They glared at the women, intending to make them suffer without getting into trouble themselves!

At the same time, the girls also realized what they could do.

If they couldn’t handle them with brute force, then they could verbally harass them back!

"They’re so ugly!" Brianna started, looking at Jenna as if she was in aghast. "I don’t know where they get their confidence from."

"Did you see those teeth? It’s so yellow—no, orange!" _{freewebnσvel.cøm}

"Gross."

"Did you see all those spots on that guy’s face?" another girl said, just blurting out what she had been thinking all this time. "I bet bugs live there, using them as caves."

The passerbys watching nearby also threw in their own opinions. "They smell, too! My face couldn’t help but scrunch up when they passed by!"

"I know right? It’s so embarrassing that they can sashay through the busy streets looking and smelling like that!"

This made the men tense up in anger, their eyes turning red. Their fists clenched and they gritted their teeth, minds whirring with what to do to cause as much damage as they could.

It wasn’t easy. After all, even gesturing to attack sent Uttot away! Uttot barely even moved then!

Then, it reached a boiling point when Jenna found some trash in her space (an empty bottle of something) to throw.

Plack!

It hit another one of the men smack on the head.

[Littering: You have received a penalty of 100 copper.]

"..."

"YOU BITCH!!" The man screamed, and his companions weren’t able to stop him anymore and—

He disappeared too.

Jenna gulped, staring at where the man—who was very much intent on killing her—was just standing.

Well…, that was a hundred copper well spent.

…

"Heh, the trash got triggered by trash, eh?" Jenna said, very much trying to maximize the 100 copper she inexplicably lost.

Seeing the girls like this empowered the people around them, starting another round of bullying.

Every other man wanted to attack badly, to beat everyone up into pulp. They felt physically in pain trying to hold themselves back—but somehow, they did.

They had done this many times before, so they weren’t careless. One of the reasons Belluga couldn’t do anything was because Patte had tested the limits of their rules and regulations.

They were even more careful with Alterra, which was obviously much more powerful than Belluga.

Naturally, they weren’t going to do anything stupid that’d land them in jail—especially not some weak women!

That was what they wanted to say—but they already lost two people!!

...

Not far away stood a pair of guards called in by a citizen. This was Cassie, as well as her new friend Yllana, an aborigine they rescued and recruited from the then-Guia Village.

The two of them rushed as soon as they found out a group of women were surrounded by aborigine men.

While they trusted the system, as women they knew firsthand how it felt like to be on the other side of such ’affection’. They didn’t want it even on their enemies!

"It’s amazing…" Yllana said, looking complicated at how the intruders were being handled. She had been surrounded by men like that for years, especially in Guia. To see them so powerless was something that filled her heart with satisfaction.

It was amazing. If those men were anywhere else, they’d have caused a lot of damage. In Alterra… the locals could insult them without fearing for their lives.
