༻﹡﹡No One’s POV﹡﹡༺
 Â
The wolves are the largest group of orcs in this area. Not only are they numerous, but they are also exceptionally skilled at cooperative hunting. Their powerful attacks make other orcs wary.
The wolf tribe’s settlement is situated halfway up a rocky mountain. The terrain is treacherous, and anyone unfamiliar with it can easily get lost.
At the base of the mountain, there is an open space where the wolf tribe holds a market every ten days. Orcs from the surrounding areas gather here, bringing their goods to trade and barter.
Today is market day, and the foot of the mountain is bustling with activity. Orcs are shopping and exchanging goods, creating a lively and chaotic scene.
Draken and Mikey have returned to their human forms and are helping Takemichi, who is wrapped tightly in animal skins, leaving only a small part of his face exposed.
“Stay close to us and don’t wander off. There are many unsavory orcs here. If they see that you’re a male who looks like a female, they might try to abduct and sell you,â€
Draken warns, his tone serious. Mikey nods in agreement.
“That sounds like human trafficking,â€
Takemichi blinks slowly, looking at them.
Draken and Mikey exchange puzzled glances.
“Human trafficker?â€
they ask in unison.
“Yeah, it’s a person who abducts and traffics women, children, and even males,â€
Takemichi explains slowly, recalling his previous world.
“Those kinds of bad guys are human traffickers. You need to be careful and never leave our side,â€
Mikey says, his concern evident. Takemichi gulps, realizing the seriousness of the situation.
“I understand,â€
Takemichi replies, following their instructions. Meanwhile, Draken notices that Takemichi is barefoot and walking with discomfort.
Draken, ever attentive, notices Takemichi’s discomfort and says,
“I’ll carry you.â€
Takemichi and Mikey are taken aback. Draken, with his towering height and muscular build, easily lifts Takemichi with one arm and settles him on his right arm.
Takemichi, startled, instinctively wraps his arms around Draken’s neck to avoid falling.
Even among the orcs, who average around 6’1″ (185 cm), Draken stands out as the tallest and most noticeable.
His height gives Takemichi a broad view of the market below.
“We’ll take you to see the witch doctor first, and then we’ll visit the market,â€
Draken says, holding Takemichi securely. He can feel Takemichi’s softness and curvature, causing a faint blush to appear on his cheeks.
“Yeah, WE are going to take Takemichi there,†Mikey adds, still glaring at Draken with jealousy.
“I’m really not sick,â€
Takemichi protests, but Draken and Mikey remain unconvinced and insist on taking him to the witch doctor.
Draken’s protective and considerate nature contrasts sharply with Mikey’s possessiveness, adding a layer of tension to their interaction.
Takemichi, caught between their concerns and his own reluctance, resigns himself to their care.

The witch doctor in this world is akin to a highly skilled physician.
Despite the simplicity of their remedies and medical knowledge, the orcs regard them with awe, as if they possess miraculous abilities. Even the most knowledgeable orc leaders, like Draken and Mikey, are deeply impressed by their skills.
The wolf clan’s witch doctor, Langzhu, is an elderly male with gray hair and a long, bushy white beard. His appearance reminds Takemichi of the legendary Santa Claus.
Draken carefully sets Takemichi down and, with a respectful gesture, clenches his fist and taps his chest before nodding slightly.
“Zhu old man, please help me. My partner suddenly fainted.â€
Langzhu, who had been dozing, opens his eyes at the mention of “partner†and “he,†rather than “she.†His shrewd gaze sweeps over Mikey and Draken before settling on Takemichi.
“You’re quite fortunate to have a partner, even if he is male,â€
Lang zhu says slowly, scrutinizing Takemichi.
“It’s a pity that many young males in our clan strive for a female partner.â€
Lang zhu’s initial disbelief about having a male partner turns to curiosity as he notes Takemichi’s exceptional beauty.
He pauses, then studies Takemichi more closely and asks with a sly smile,
“Little male, how many male partners do you have?â€
Takemichi looks confused and unsure how to respond. Mikey quickly steps in front of him, with Draken following suit, blocking Langzhu’s view. They both convey a warning through their body language.
“Zhu old man, this is my male. Please don’t be harsh with him,â€
Mikey says firmly. Draken, feeling a pang of jealousy at Mikey’s possessive tone, struggles internally.
He wants to argue that Takemichi is his as well, but he can’t deny that Mikey was the one to find him first. His feelings are conflicted, and he’s unsure whether Mikey is deliberately trying to provoke him or assert his claim on Takemichi.
Lang zhu observes the tension between Mikey and Draken, noting their protective behavior. Despite knowing that in this world, it’s normal for a male to have multiple partners, he still finds Takemichi’s situation unusual and intriguing.
Lang zhu’s sly smile hints at his unspoken intentions.
“Mikey, don’t forget that a female, even if he is male, usually has more than one partner. This is a rare occurrence, but it’s not unheard of. Even if you become his partner, he can still choose others,â€
Langzhu says, his white beard swaying as he speaks.
Mikey’s expression darkens, a murderous intent flickering in his eyes.
No one, not even a mysterious witch doctor, will take Takemichi from him.
Draken, understanding Mikey’s frustration and sensing the conversation might escalate, steps in. He realizes that if he were in Mikey’s position, he would feel the same way, and he’s certain others would too.
Lang zhu notices the growing tension and decides to steer the conversation away from potential conflict.
He gestures to a male behind him, though he doesn’t completely abandon his sly plans.
“Come closer, little male. Let me examine you and see what’s wrong,â€
Lang zhu says, his tone now more focused on the medical examination.
Takemichi, reassured by Mikey and Draken’s nods, approaches Lang zhu.
The witch doctor questions him about the details of his fainting spell. Takemichi answers calmly and truthfully, providing all the necessary information.

“The little male isn’t sick, but his body is relatively delicate and needs proper care,â€
Lang Zhu said, looking at Takemichi with the kind, gentle demeanor of a true doctor.
Draken and Mikey both breathed a sigh of relief, while Takemichi made a face that seemed to say,
‘I told you I’m fine.’
“Come, little male, have some of these crispy, fragrant fruits as a gift,â€
Lang Zhu said, pulling out a pouch made of animal skin and offering it to Takemichi.
“No, thank you,â€
Takemichi said, gently refusing the old witch doctor’s gift.
Lang Zhu, undeterred by Takemichi’s refusal, smiled warmly.
“Our wolf tribe has many interesting things. Since you’re here, why not stay a few more days?â€
“I’ll follow Draken-kun and Mikey-kun’s advice,â€
Takemichi said slowly, accepting the gift with a reluctant smile. The three exchanged puzzled looks at the use of “-kun†for their names.
“Mikey-kun and Draken-kun?â€
they thought in unison.
“Well, I like it. It’s kinda cute,â€
Mikey and Draken both thought, exchanging glances that confirmed their shared sentiment.
Lang Zhu, observing their reaction, shrugged off the thought and turned his attention back to Takemichi.
Feeling unfamiliar in this new place, Takemichi found comfort in the presence of Mikey, who had first found him, and Draken, who was caring for him.
Mikey and Draken’s initial displeasure turned to bright smiles upon hearing Takemichi’s decision.
“It’s fine if you want to stay for a few days. But if you change your mind, we can leave immediately,â€
Draken said softly, lifting Takemichi in his arms as he had before. Mikey glared at Draken, clearly annoyed.
“Argh! Damn, if only I were taller!â€
Mikey thought, but his irritation melted away as he watched Takemichi being carried by the muscular Draken, his anger dissipating in the face of Takemichi’s serene beauty.
“Alright, I forgive you, Ken-chin,â€
Mikey thought, feeling blessed by the sight.
Takemichi considered the offer carefully. It was a rare opportunity to visit the wolf tribe, and he didn’t want to waste it. He was curious about the potential information he could gain.
“Can we go to the market again?â€
Takemichi asked politely.
“Sure, we’ll follow your lead,â€
Mikey said, glancing at Draken, who nodded in agreement. Draken felt as if he had forgotten something important but couldn’t quite recall what.
“Really?!â€
Takemichi’s face lit up with a bright smile that captivated both Mikey and Draken.
Lang Zhu, too, was charmed by Takemichi’s beauty, though he kept his thoughts to himself.
Langzhu continued,
“It’s rare for females to visit our wolf tribe, and even rarer to see someone like you. If you wish to stay with us tonight, I can arrange a room for you.â€
Mikey and Draken, now fully alert, exchanged wary glances.
“No need, we can arrange it for Takemichi ourselves,â€
they said in unison, both looking at each other with determination.
“Huh?â€
Mikey and Draken both responded.
“What do you mean ‘I’? I can arrange it myself for Takemichi!â€
Mikey insisted, clearly annoyed at the idea of not being the one to handle it.
“You know, Mikey, Takemichi didn’t even say he’s ‘yours,’ did he?â€
Draken countered, his jealousy evident.
“Huh?! What do you mean by that, Ken-chin? Are you against Toman now?â€
Mikey shot back, anger rising.
“And now you’re using your authority?â€
Draken retorted, noting the growing irritation in Mikey.
The two continued to argue, oblivious to Takemichi’s mounting frustration.
“Please! Can you both stop fighting?â€
Takemichi cried out in desperation.
“I’m not anyone’s male!â€
Mikey and Draken looked shocked and hurt. Mikey ran to Takemichi and hugged him tightly.
“Wahhh! Takemichi, what do you mean by that?â€
Mikey cried, tears streaming down his face. Draken, looking like a kicked puppy, couldn’t meet Takemichi’s gaze, clearly wounded by his words.
“It’s true, I—I’m gay—wait, I’m not completely gay! I also like girls, but I’m interested in guys too… So maybe I’m bisexual, but… it’s too early to… *blush*â€
Takemichi stammered, realizing he might have said too much.
‘gay?’
Both thought
“Fine, I’ll try, but please don’t fight, okay?â€
Takemichi said, hoping to resolve the situation.
Draken and Mikey looked at each other and thought,
‘If it’s for you, then I’m okay with it.’
“I’m sorry, Ken-chin,â€
Mikey said, surprising Takemichi.
“No, I should apologize. I know you found him first…â€
Draken replied. The two smiled at each other, grateful for their friendship and future together.
Meanwhile, Lang Zhu, watching the drama unfold, munched on some popcorn, which he had somehow magically obtained.
“And here I thought they were going to fight,†Lang Zhu mused to himself, only to be interrupted by Takemichi’s curious gaze.
“Huh?â€
Takemichi tilted his head cutely.
“Haha, it’s nothing,â€
Lang Zhu said with a sheepish grin at the oblivious Takemichi.

After speaking, Draken picked up Takemichi and strode out of the stone house where the witch doctor lived, with Mikey following after finishing his conversation with Lang Zhu.
The market outside was bustling with activity.
Strong male orcs moved about everywhere, and while there were a few female orcs present, they were surrounded by a group of males, making it difficult for others to even glance in their direction.
Takemichi, wrapped tightly in an animal skin due to his wet clothes, sat comfortably in Draken’s arms.
His petite figure was almost hidden beneath the bulky covering, making it hard to distinguish his male characteristics. He looked around curiously, taking in the scene.
The clothes for sale were made from animal skins, simple in style and somewhat rough in workmanship. Despite their rugged appearance, they resembled normal clothes to him, though they were a bit different from what he was used to.
As he observed, he realized that the clothes he wore now were unfamiliar. He wondered if Hinata had dressed him in different attire, but he put that thought aside, focusing instead on the need to change his wet clothes.
“Here,â€
Takemichi said, selecting two sets of animal skin skirts in the smallest size available.
The other garments were far too large for him.
“Is this enough?â€
Mikey asked as Draken took out a crystal coin from his pocket and handed it to Mikey. Mikey then passed it to the wolf clan vendor.
“T-this is more than enough!â€
The wolf clan orc, owner of the clothing shop, widened his eyes in astonishment at the sight of the crystal coin.
His wolfish eyes gleamed with excitement. This was a precious crystal coin!
The amount was so substantial that it could buy not just the two sets of skirts, but potentially everything in the store.
. â— . â— . â— . â— . â— . â— . â— . â— . â— . â— . â— . â—
 Â
Takemichi stepped out from behind the boar skin and put on the animal skin skirt.
Both Mikey and Draken stood nearby, eagerly anticipating the reveal, their hearts racing with curiosity and anticipation.
“How… How’s it going?â€
Mikey asked, his voice tinged with concern that Takemichi might not like the clothes.
“Is it the right size?â€
Draken inquired, worried that the small, skinny boy might not fit well into the garment.
Then, Takemichi slowly pulled away the hide, revealing the skirt draped over his body.
The plain cream-colored animal skin skirt hugged his petite, delicate figure, accentuating his round shoulders and straight legs. His full chest was subtly outlined, adding to the overall elegance of the look.
Mikey’s eyes widened in admiration, and his gaze deepened instantly.
Draken, on the other hand, quickly averted his eyes, feeling a flush creeping up his neck. He tried hard not to look at Takemichi for fear of getting a nosebleed.
“It’s so beautiful!â€
Mikey exclaimed, his voice husky as he reached out to gently poke Takemichi’s chest.
Draken could only nod in agreement, still not looking at Takemichi, as he tried to suppress his own reaction.
Takemichi’s face turned crimson with embarrassment.
“R-rogue!â€
Takemichi shouted, wrapping himself tightly in the boar skin again, leaving only half of his face exposed. He glared at the two orcs in front of him.
Seeing Takemichi’s adorable and flustered appearance, both Mikey and Draken felt a surge of warmth in their chests.
They were utterly captivated by how cute and charming Takemichi looked.
Even the shop owner was not immune to Takemichi’s allure, his cheeks turning red as he watched the scene unfold.
Mikey and Draken thought simultaneously,
“Takemichi… you really are…â€
as they looked away, struggling to maintain their composure and avoid the possibility of a nosebleed.
Takemichi, anxious about his appearance in the new clothes, wondered if he looked strange.
But in reality, he didn’t.
