Quick Transmigration: Reversing the Life of a Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character

His unyielding ears are a recognized flaw. Given the scarcity of females and abundance of males, females have many choices and no one would choose him as a mate, even if he is a skilled hunter.

So whenever he hunted down a hide suitable for a female, orcs who wanted to form a bond would come to him to trade it, and he would always do so.

Hu Qing wrapped the animal hide around Ye's body, saying, "Huh? Is it warm?"

Unconvinced, he touched and felt the "bed" beneath the female again and again.

"Yes, this is called a heated kang (a traditional heated brick bed). It gets warm from burning wood," Ye said leisurely.

"A totem manifesting?"

"No, it was my spirit that appeared to me."

"what?"

"It means that this was made by me and Falcon Hunter."

"Can I learn it?"

"Are you going to teach it to the tribe?"

Hu Qing hesitated for a moment: "Can we trade something for this heated bed in the tribe?"

"What if I don't change it?" Ye probed directly.

"The item is yours; you don't have to exchange it," Hu Qing said confidently.

Ye stared straight at the orc in front of her. She had quite a few things that the natives could exchange for, and she had no intention of keeping them to herself. After all, she had no interest in ruling the kingdom and dominating, so there was no need to cherish these things. However, she wanted to have absolute autonomy in deciding what to do with these things. If Hu Qing revealed these things to the tribe without permission, she would consider replacing her with another orc to protect her.

This world has no shortage of male orcs!

"What is there about the Tiger Tribe that's worth exchanging for?"

"You can get a beautiful, thick fur, hard-to-hunt but delicious prey, and unlimited salt. Or you can go to the tiger tribe and see if there's anything you like." Hu Qing is a cub of the shaman family. Although he doesn't have the talent to be a shaman, he still has a broad perspective. This bed that gets warm when lit by a fire is very useful for cubs born in the cold season and for delicate females.

Regarding the issue of female orcs, Ye had been mentally complaining. In her previous worlds, females in nature were not weak at all, especially tigresses, who were dominant forces. But in this world, they couldn't fully transform into beastmen and had to be described as weak. She didn't know if it was the result of natural evolution or the forced interference of the totem spirit.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Hu Qing gritted his teeth and said, "Or you can ask to change to a male beastman."

"You're willing to sacrifice for the tribe, but don't you want to form a pact?" Ye asked unexpectedly.

"I do want to, but I'm a disabled orc. You," Hu Qing pointed to the warm kang (heated brick bed), "can be replaced by a male orc who is perfect in both human and beast forms."

"You don't want to leave the tribe?"

"No, I also live on the very edge of the tribe. I hunt alone most of the time. It makes no difference whether I leave or not." Hu Qing doesn't like being with his tribesmen, especially the beastmen his age. When they get together, they only talk about how to woo females.

"Then there's no problem. Go ask Eagle Hunter, he knows everything." Ye calmly turned over. For her, as long as the tribe could afford the price, a heated kang bed was something she could exchange. She asked so many questions to confirm Hu Qing's attitude.

Of course, if one day in the future you find that he makes you uncomfortable, you can still break the contract. In this world, the female has the right to decide on the partner contract. The female can choose any male for pleasure, but the contract must be formed by both parties willingly. After the contract is successfully formed, the female can break the partner contract with a male according to her mood. It will not harm the female, but for the male, it is probably at the level of having his emotional core removed, because the male only has one chance to form a contract in his lifetime.

"No rush, let's form a bond first. Once the bond is formed, the male will not betray the female." Hu Qing looked at her intently.

Ye waved her hand, she wasn't in a hurry. Her most important task now was to survive. Once the cold season came, she wouldn't be able to leave, so she had plenty of time. Eagle Hunter had been with her for so many days, but she hadn't tasted any benefits. Tiger Green had formed a contract with her on the first day, which was unfair to Eagle Hunter. Besides, she also needed time to adapt, as they were still strangers.

"It doesn't matter. It's just a heated kang bed. The Tiger Tribe will have to exchange something for it. There's no rush to form a contract. You still have a chance to back out."

Hu Qing was actually in a hurry. He had finally found a partner to mate with, and only what he could have was truly his. However, he had to respect the female's wishes in this matter. Since she didn't want it, he could only take it slowly.

"All right."

After the two reached an agreement, Ye said to Eagle Hunter, "Hunter, would your Eagle Clan be interested in this? Why don't you go back? The Eagle Clan can also offer something in exchange for this method."

Eagle Hunter shook his head: "The Eagle Clan likes to live on cliffs and in the treetops. There's no way to build a heated kang (traditional heated bed). Besides, my original tribe had a large cave with warm stones on the ground. During the cold season, the chicks and unhatched eggs would move there."

Are the rocks hot? Hot springs? Active volcanoes? Ye wasn't sure what it was, but animals have keen senses, and with the totem spirit as a cheat, she could probably escape in advance if there was danger. She didn't know the specifics of this world, so she couldn't say anything rash.

Eagle Hunter is not talkative and will not say a word unless necessary. In contrast, Tiger Green talks more, which makes the cave more lively.

"Ye, what kind of prey do you want to eat? I'll go hunt it."

"It's past midnight, stop fighting, let's just grab something to eat," Ye said, taking out two large bowls of roasted meat that Eagle Hunt had prepared earlier from his spatial storage.

"Alright, I'll go hunt a bull-like beast when it's light." Hu Qing, ever the opportunist, said with a smile, "Wow, Ye Zhen really is favored by the totem spirit; the space can even keep warm."

Have any females ever had a space that could keep them warm before?

"I heard from the witch that a long time ago there was a female with a very powerful spatial ability. Whatever you put in, it would look the same when you took it out. That female was also very powerful and taught us a lot."

Ye's heart skipped a beat: "What happened to her afterwards?"

"I don't know. The witch said that the female suddenly disappeared one day, just as suddenly as she appeared. Nobody knows where she came from or where she went."

Fellow villager? Time traveler? Or a messenger sent by the so-called totem spirit to enlighten living beings?

A day later, the three arrived at the Tiger Tribe again, and this time they were invited into the chieftain's tent.

"Human female," Tiger Green said, "you have a heated bed, what would you like to trade for it?"

"Twenty thick animal hides for warmth, thirty thin animal hides, one Ni beast, and ten animal hide bags of salt," Ye quoted directly.

"Okay." The tiger clan readily agreed. Of the conditions, only the Ni beast was a bit difficult. It was a wild beast that lived on the edge of the swamp. It was huge, with a smooth skin, but every part of it was a treasure. Its meat was delicious, and there was a bead inside that emitted a cool breeze, which was a good thing to cool off in the summer. Its teeth could be made into sharp knives, and its tanned hide was smooth and skin-friendly.

However, these neon beasts are incredibly powerful and occupy the advantageous terrain of the swamp, making them difficult to hunt unless top hunter tribes concentrate their efforts on hunting them.

This condition was added by Hu Qing himself. He said that the Tiger Clan could hunt the Nirvana Beasts without getting hurt, and that almost every female in their Tiger Clan had a cooling bead.
