Return

The Ancient Gnomes' descendants glanced at each other and turned back to Marvin, reiterating determinedly, "We don't trust Humans!"

Marvin rolled his eyes.

From their attitude, the two must have definitely eaten a loss while dealing with Humans.

But fortunately, Ivan was there. He clearly saw Marvin's interest and immediately interacted with them on Marvin's behalf.

Zac and David really were Ancient Gnomes.

The great disaster that year destroyed the Ancient Gnome Empire but there were still some who survived.

They hid in a Sanctuary for who knew how many years.

They almost never communicated with the outside world because nobody knew whether the disaster mentioned by their ancestors in the records had passed or not.

The two Ancient Gnomes naturally wouldn't mention the location of that Sanctuary even if beaten to death.
