Five days later.
Mantis Town had recovered from its battle scars, and the town had regained its vitality. Humans and Mantis Beastmen walked along the streets with faint smiles upon their faces.
For the Mantis Beastmen who could not speak the human language, they tried using hand gestures to convey their meanings.
It was somewhat comical, but it showed how each species was genuinely trying to understand the other better.
Survival might have brought the two species together initially, but now they had become comrades who had shared a life and death battle.
The humans had proven they could be depended upon, and because of that, the Mantis Beastmen gradually opened their hearts to them.
With the two species almost becoming one community, the central street remained as lively as ever. It was all thanks to one particular and rather strange store.
Standing at the very center of the commercial district, a massive two story building towered over the surrounding structures.
