Capítulo 61: The Kings Pt.V
The spider king let out a screech and her children understood it as her order for them to charge.
"Bees! Don't falter. Let's not disappoint our queen!"
"Beetles! Full force!"
The commanders of both sections ordered and their subordinates obeyed. The insects soon swarmed the orc king, forming a tornado around him. Even with quality, he shouldn't have been able to surpass the sheer numbers of the insect army, right? But then,
"Is this your trump card? I expected more. Then again, I guess that's all you would need to beat that moron over there."
'Yea, keep talking big even after you are already caught in my trap.'
"Hmph."
'What's so funny?'
"It's nothing. I just remembered a question somebody asked me earlier. Would you like to know it?"
The spider remained quiet. She wasn't showing it, but she was feeling quite tensed. The mana threads she had created were taking quite a lot out of her. She was hoping to at least have been able to take down the orc with this, but it was taking longer than expected. The insects in the tornado would just flying around him, spitting poison or acid or stinging him till he died. He should have died already, so how was he alive?
"You don't want to? What a bore. I'll tell you either way. The person said 'Dulk, why do you always smoke'."
The insect king's eyes widened with the sudden realization.
'There's no way, right? He can't possibly be t-the Hell Orc.'
Just as she was thinking, Dulk clicked his tongue and the smoke ignited, causing a huge explosion. The explosion managed to wipe out most of the backs and those whose defense were high enough to prevent them from turning into charcoal fell to ground in agony.
Dulk then lifted his axe with was set ablaze. His eyes looked calm. The Orc from Hell, was his nickname. With a battle axe set ablaze with the flames of hell, the scent of gasoline he exuded and the unique horn growing from his forehead, this Orc roams the land, burning everything in a quest for power.
The spider king felt like this was the day she would die. Still, at least she went down in one of the dopest of ways. To a damned opponent with the name Orc from Hell. She could brag to the others in the afterlife.
He charged at the spider king who was running out of energy, then he swiped down at her.
CLUNK!!!
His axe bounced back after colliding with the claws of a white furry creature. He was a bit stunned when he stumbled back from the impact. It was a white timber wolf about his size, with dark violet eyes. The wolf king growled at the orc king.
"So the West was still hiding more?"
The orc sounded surprised.
'I suppose you are the spider king?'
The white wolf started a conversation.
'Yea. And you must be the wolf king.'
She replied weakly.
'Could you finish that guy off quickly? I'm losing a ton of mana right now trying to restrain this guy.'
The white wolf looked at the sleeping troll king then nodded. She didn't fully understand what had happened but she got the gist of it.
'In that case, you can leave that orc to me.'
Dulk looked at the wolf that was slowly approaching him. He was strong, but he knew that if he fought the wolf, he would lose. Something about her just made him anxious. He needed the troll's help, but that moron was sleeping. What a fool. He was so annoyed that he couldn't keep a calm expression.
"Oi, you moron! What the hell are you doing!? Get off your lazy ass and come help me."
The troll was still sleeping and the spider weakly laughed.
'Haha…. He just received twenty thousand volts of electric current. It's amazing that he's even alive.'
"Twenty thousand? What's that supposed to be worth?"
The orc asked
'Oh, that's right. You wouldn't know, would you?'
"Tch… Zod, if you don't wake up I'll tell Krull that you decided to flee from battle."
'That isn't going to wor-'
"DON'T EVER DO THAT!!! OOOOOHHHH!"
The troll suddenly woke and began forcing his way out of the threads.
'Wait! What!?'
The spider king was surprised by the sudden turn of events. She used her skill [Electro web] several times, but it only further angered the troll.
"Enough of that infuriating light! Let me go!"
The troll continuously pushed against the sticky yet strong threads.
"Ah! Dulk! These are just way too tough."
"What do you mean they are way to toug-"
The wolf pounced on the orc and he blocked with his axe but stumbled backwards.
'To have a conversation while fighting me, you must really underestimate me.'
"Trust me. I don't."
The orc charged at the wolf king and swiped at her, but she avoided it. She then swiped at him, but he blocked with his axe.
"Ah. Damn it. At this rate, I won't get anywhere."
________________________________________________
Larm was an unbelievably large forest, even possessing a mountain. Well, it was more like a forest surrounding a mountain. The mountain was more to the northern part of Larm, but it was still considered a part of Larm due to its bountiful resources. Behind the mountain was a huge ocean, connecting to endless nothing. No one ever traversed there due to it being the "No man's land" region. Just rocky shores and dangerous monsters waiting to kill.
In one of the caves, a woman with leafy green hair that reached down to her waist, walked through the deep cave, at her side were two other females. One was a child with mid-night black hair dressed in make-shift clothes made out of leaves and a metal collar around her neck. The other was a young woman with a short-cut blonde.
The woman with leafy green hair who was known as Diane, took a glance at the child holding her hand as they continued down the dark path quietly, without even a source of light. She was a bit stunned when she heard that a Dhamypr had entered the West and in day time no less, but when she looked at the girl, she realized why the girl hadn't already died from being exposed to the day light.
The collar that the girl wore was imbued with a magic that provided a layer of protection against the sun so the girl was fine. Still she failed to understand how the girl had lived her life before being captured. She must have had been wearing something that protected her against the sun. Because it was highly impossible to have found her in the Realm of Eternal Night. No person could go there and retrieve the vampiric species from there. Whatever it was, the dryad couldn't waste much time thinking about it.
She then glanced at the tree sprite who was next to her. The tree sprite had been shivering for a while now and the dryad could understand why. Tree sprites were extremely sensitive to mana and could sense it a mile away, so as such, being in the cave at the very moment wasn't helping.
"I think you should go help Hinotori now."
The dryad suggested.
"S-She said she would call for me when she needed me. Besides, I cannot simply live you here all alone."
"What? Pay no mind to me. Right now I am very safe. Hinotori on the other hand will be in serious trouble if there is no one to back her up."
"B-but-"
"No excuses. You like her don't you? Just go."
The tree sprite looked at the dryad with grateful eyes. The dryad waved her wrist at the sprite, and a whirlwind of leaves encased her, teleporting her way.
"Shall we go now?"
She asked Ulva, who had been staring at the ground where the sprite once stood in awe. Ulva nodded and they headed off.
After a bit of walking, they stopped in their tracks. Ulva didn't know why, but she had always been able to see in the dark. She had always suspected that there was something… different about her and the rest of the children in the village. She was special… abnormal to be blunt. Some could even say she was… No! There was no point in thinking about such matters.
She managed to see that they had stopped right in front of a cave, and she could hear the sound of a gentle heart beat coming from in there. The smell of something inhuman almost blocked her nose.
"There is something in there."
She pointed at the cave and Diane nodded.
"Yes. You are right. Now please keep quiet for a bit."
Ulva nodded and Diane stepped forward. Suddenly, a yellow light lit up from the cave. No. It wasn't a light. It glowed like an orb, but it wasn't one. It was a large eye that was looking intensely at the two females.
"Who goes there?"
A very powerful and deep voice echoed throughout the cave.
"It is I, the Oldest Tree, Diane. I have come with urgent news and I need you to come with me."
"Urgent news? What is so urgent that you come and wake me up after six years of sleep?"
"There is a war happening at this moment."
"…. A war? Did humans invade?"
"No. It is between Tyrants."
"Between those Tyrants? Tch… it's just children playing."
"One of those tyrants has been selling our resources to the humans. The other tyrant is fighting against that, but the way things look, one of them might die."
"What!? Who dares go against Master's wishes!?"
"The Tyrant of the East, War Monger Krull."
"Ah? A ward of mine own choosing? Does thou have proof of this?"
"The evidence is being collected at this very moment."
"Hmm… Very well then."
The voice went silent and the eyes closed. The cave suddenly felt eerily quiet. But then,
TAP, TAP, TAP
The sounds of a figure walking could be heard. When the figure emerged, Diane went on her knee and Ulva could only stare.
"Welcome back, Lord Goliath."
