"Why are they so afraid of Ugly Duckling?"
"Perhaps they have taken Ugly Duckling to be their totem. They do look rather similar."
Amy and Babla were sitting on a short wall in the small courtyard, and talking to each other with wonder as they watched two orcs kneel on the ground, present two grilled fish to Ugly Duckling respectfully, and then press their foreheads to the ground respectfully.
Ugly Duckling stared at the grilled fish on the plates with glowing eyes. However, it didn't rush to eat, and instead extended both its paws, and tapped lightly on the two orcs' heads.
The two orcs looked up and bowed twice with their palms pressed together to Ugly Duckling excitedly and respectfully before getting up and leaving happily.
"Meow~"
Ugly Duckling only started eating the grilled fish happily after the two orcs went far away.
