Chapter 65: Never See Them Again (Part 2)
Suddenly 4 strange soldiers wearing stone armor with huge appearance intruded into my house.
My wife was now being pressed down to the floor, my daughter's hair was being grabbed by one of the soldiers.
I tried to go toward Eris and was about to save her from the soldier that grabbed her hair and was also about to save Shera from the other soldiers. But when I just have stepped a bit toward, a soldier stepped out to block my way.
"Htona amuh iaga?" (Another human again?) - The soldier that blocked my way seemed surprised, I tried to look at Shera and Eris but he kept moving in my direction to stop me
"Ahw luohs w d, Iatoac?"
(What should we do, Captain?) - That soldier suddenly looked behind to see his commander, maybe this was a good chance to kill him
"Hey, filthy human! I saw you moved your hand to the sword, do not do anything stupid or these two humans will die!" - The soldier's commander saw my action so he shouted loud to me in Englis language, he later used his hand to tell his subordinate to keep eyes contact with me while talking back to him
"Oitseuq aht amuh, yawal lat t ih i Englis gaugnal"
(Question that human, always talk to him in Englis language)
"Who are you people? Why did you people intrude into my house!"
"Ha, what a stupid male human! You don't recognize who we are? Look at me closer." - The voice of the soldier that asked me was quite heavy as if he was not human but was some kind of creature
"Papa!" - Eris called me, she even cried while trying to pull the soldier that grabbed her hair
"I will come right away, Eris!" - I charged toward Eris but that soldier blocked me again
"You didn't answer my question yet, look closer to me and see what can you recognize."
"Please! You people please spare my husband and my daughter! Please let them go!" - Shera begged the soldiers while being pressed onto the floor
From what I saw when I could peek at Shera's position a bit, the soldier that was about to tie her didn't do that yet. He was still waiting for order while hearing my conversation with the soldier that blocked my way.
"Answer me, human!"
What did he want me to see? Then I later noticed that the soldier that had spoken to me, his face has been covered in a round helmet which was made of stone, it only exposed his eyes and his mouth.
The soldier that blocked my way didn't look like a human, he was huge, about 2 meters (6,56 feet), the soldiers around him were also that height or a bit shorter.
As I could see from his face, his face was quite wide and big, his eyes looked dark and his mouth, full of sharp teeth. As I could see from his skin, the soldier's skin was a bit dark green, the soldiers around him have brown or dark green skins.
"Who the hell are you?"
"What? What are you looking at? You don't recognize us? What a stupid human!"
"You people are Orcs?"
"There is no human in our Kingdom, what a stupid human!" - If that soldier was an Orc then he must come from the Kingdom of Demon but why did they get here?
I looked around for more but the crying sounds from Eris and the begs from Shera made me cannot wait, I must save my daughter and my wife at all costs.
"Where are you going! Look at me! You stupid human!" - Tch! I must kill this orc
I looked closer at the soldier, his armor was made of thick stone, it was well made, he has two stone gauntlets, there were two small pouches down the belt of the soldier looked to be used to carry something.
His sword has been carried on the right side of the belt with his small dagger next to it, what was this soldier meant for me to look at him?
Ah! I found something, a symbol that looked to be a crest that was marked on the left side of the Orc soldier's shoulder, it was marked in purple and had a big design. The crest looked to have the design as same as the United States Great Seal, similar to the pendal of Graber.
These soldiers...they were the soldiers to come here to find Graber? Did the Demon Lord find her sister's lost location? No! Even if that was true then why did they have to intrude into our house and acted as if to arrest us?
"Looks like you have seen the crest, now recognize who we are?" - That Orc soldier asked me while smuggling
"No! Who the hell are you people!"
"Huh! You don't even recognize this sacred symbol? This symbol means nothing to you?" - That soldier seemed a bit angry for some reason
"No! I don't care who are you people but immediately release Shera and Eris now or I will kill all of you!"
"Shera? Eris?"
"They are my wife and my child that you people are holding!"
"John! The soldiers you are facing are the Royal Guard of the Demon's Imperial Palace!" - Shera shouted toward me to let me know, she kept looking at Eris and looked back to me as if to tell me to go save our daughter
"Huh! Look like that woman is more knowledgeable than you are, you said those are your relatives?"
"Yes!"
"Then hear me, you filthy human! All of you are under arrest, immediately us follow back to the Palace to be given the death sentences to all of you!" - What! What the fuck did you say?
"Why?"
"But at first who are you people exactly? I need a detailed answer!"
"We are the Royal Guards of the Kingdom of Demon, we came here for the duty to find the border knight named Rivia to add her to the force that's about to join the amphibious assault."
"But when we got here, most of the area around the border are full of monsters, only this area hasn't had any of them but the three of you filthy humans but not the Knight we are looking for."
"According to our old laws, any human that crosses the snow border to get here will be executed right away but now we have allied with the humans to fight against the invaders from the sky so that law has been erased."
"But all of you are now living in Knight Rivia's house, according to our laws, the people that violate the other's property will be executed right away."
"But the three of you are humans so this will be a special case, you people will be brought to the Palace to take the punishment from Darker - The Supreme Demon Lord."
"If all of you can tell us where is Rivia, then we will reconsider, if all of you live in her house with her permission, we will neglect the punishment."
"Now tell us where is Rivia! If she is still staying here, tell us and we will spare all of you!" - Rivia has died for 5 years, but I cannot lie to the soldiers, my family would be harmed if I lie
"Rivia is dead, for 5 years ago."
"What! She died? And you people live in her house! That means you people killed her and stole her house to live, this crime will be very serious, immediately follow us back to the Capital or the punishment will be carried here!"
"We didn't kill her and this is our house, Rivia died for saving us and she let us live in her house."
"Proof! Do you have any proof to prove it? You people not just lied but also cunning, immediately follow us back to the Capital!"
"Please spare my husband and my daughter, please! Please! You people!" - Shera kept begging the soldiers, the two soldiers that were pressing her on the floor and the commander of the orc soldiers that stood nearby were now focusing on my conversation
"Papa! Mama! Save me!" - Eris was still struggling to pull the soldier that grabbed her hair away, our daughter has stopped crying and started beating the soldier with her small hands
"I will come right away, Eris!" - I stepped a step toward and also the soldier that blocked my way did the same, he didn't let me go
"Immediately follow us back to the Capital!"
"Get out of my way or I will kill all of you! Get away from my wife and my child immediately!"
"You filthy human, you won't be able to take down any of us! Follow us back to the Capital or you will have to see your relatives die here!" - The commander of the orc's soldiers shouted toward me
"If you accept to be arrested alongside your family, we promise we won't make any harm, when all of you have been carried back to the Capital, you people will meet Her Majesty."
"Her Majesty will be the one who chooses the punishment, if you people behave good, maybe she will hold off the punishment and spare all of you."

"You people promise you won't harm my family?"
"Yes, we promise in the name of Her Majesty!" - Even if all of us got killed, we will die together, but now I only cared about my family, must let them live as long as possible
"Papa! Mama!" - Eris was still beating the soldier that grabbed her hair, she seemed very exhausted after punching him too much
"Don't worry, Eris! If we listen to these people we wil be fine."
" Iht amuh i s eyonna t m, 'I erob, suj lik eh hgir awa."
(This human is so annoyed to me, I'm bored, just kill her right away) - The orc soldier that grabbed Eris's hair suddenly shoved her down to the floor, he later drew his sword and raised it high above the sky
"Papa!" - Eris has been shoved very powerful so she could not walk, my daughter was trying to crawl toward me in tears
"No, Eris!" - Shera seemed to be very depressed and shocked, me either, our daughter has been sliced by the sword from the orc soldier that shoved her
Our daughter kept looking at me in the painful tears while her back was draining blood, her eyes later had no emotion left, only blank as if she had died from blood loss.
My daughter, my little angel, she was the gift that we had created between my happiness with Shera, we have lived together in a very good happy life, my daughter was always cheerful.
I did not have much time to talk with my daughter when I always spent most of my time on patroling, only Shera taught and talked with her the most but I loved my daughter, now I have to see her die in front of me.
"Basor, ahw ht leh vah oy nod!"
(Basor, what the hell have you done!) - The soldier that blocked my way and the soldiers that arrested Shera had now focused on my daughter, I must take this chance to kill all of them, I will revenge!
I immediately pulled out a dagger behind my belt and stuck it toward the orc soldier's throat, that soldier didn't have time to react and fell to the floor a few seconds later. After that, I drew my sword and ran toward the fucker who killed my daughter in madness, I will fucking kill you all!
"Raargggh!" - I shouted loud and sliced that asshole's throat with my sword, he didn't notice me so he didn't guard, that asshole fell on the floor right away while his throat spurting out a lot of blood
"I will fucking kill all of you!" - After killing two soldiers, I ran toward Shera and was about to save her, the soldiers had now on guard, one of them had drawn the sword to fight against me
"Get the fuck out!" - I collided my sword with the other one's sword, that orc soldier only wounded not much because my sword hit his armor but didn't cause any much damage
"Rargggh!" - I kept charging and then the soldier that had been hit by my sword rushed toward me and held me, he pulled me out of the house, both of us touched the ground after making a big hole on the house when I was pulled out
"Fucking get off me!" - The orc soldier was now trying to hold me back, trying to press me down on the ground with all of his strength, I was swinging my sword around while being pressed down, I was in madness
Suddenly the soldier pressed me with a very powerful blow which made me feel very hurt, maybe some of my ribs had been broken because of that powerful press. I cannot hold my sword anymore, it was so hurtful for me to do but I kept resisting the soldier that was pressing me down.
I noticed a bit before I was pulled outside, the soldier that looked to be the commander of the orc's soldier had released Shera and pointed his direction toward me, he was now slowly stepping closer toward me with his sword.
"To have the ability to kill two of our Royal Guards, not bad, human! But with what you have done to us, you will be executed here!" - That soldier slowly stepped toward me and slowly raised his sword above as if was about to chop my head off
"Hey, do not harm John!" - Suddenly a voice called the soldiers that were pressing me down on the ground
That was Shera, she was now running to a position that was a bit far away and could make all of us see and then stood there. She was holding a dagger that seemed to be taken from the dead soldiers.
"Hey, human woman! Do not do anything stupid, you must be alive for us for the interrogation." - The soldier that was about to kill me pointed his sword at Shera to warn her
Shera slowly pointed the blade near her throat, she was about to kill herself?
"Shera, stop! Shera! We have lost our daughter! I don't want to see you die! Stop!"
"Shera, don't die! Please live, please! Don't do that, I don't want to see you die!"
Shera slowly looked at me and opened a smile, she also has some tears while pointing the dagger closer to her throat.
"John! Don't worry, you will be okay, this is the only way to keep you alive."
"Don't worry, I will be fine, it was very fun and happy though we only lived with each other for a very short time, I love you very much, John! And also our daughter, Eris!"
"I love you, John! So please live, you are always the one I love the most. Even when I die, our love won't be separated, the three of us will be always together forever." - After saying that word, Shera stabbed the dagger toward her throat
I saw the entire scene, Shera sacrificed herself to save my life, her throat kept spurting out the blood and Shera later fell to the ground. Died with a happy smile, she wanted to let me live, she died in happiness when she thought she has finally saved me.
The soldiers that also saw the scene, they looked very depressed when my wife was the suspect that they wanted to be alive for questioning has now died so they pointed their direction toward me.
"I will fucking kill all of you! You people killed my wife and my child! Don't think any one of you can get out here alive!"
"We didn't kill your kid, she has cried too much so that was very annoyed, our soldiers killed her just because of that, your wife died stupidly when she died just to save your life."
"What the fuck did you say!"
"You are the only suspect that is still alive, now follow us back to the Capital."
"I will kill all of you!"
"Paranth, I liw eg disni ht suoh t craes stcepsus gnignoleb, oy eek ih hgit."
(Paranth, I will get inside the house to search suspects' belongings, you keep him tight) - The soldier that was about to kill me got inside my house and the other one kept pressing me down
I kept resisting the soldier that held me but didn't succeed, he held me so tight and I have to keep my energy, I must wait for the right moment to kill these two.
Then the orc soldier that intruded into my house brought two things that looked to be my military uniform and Shera's dress, we had kept them in the cabinet of the bedroom as the specials memory the day when we first got to this land.
"What are these? Filthy human clothes?" - That orc soldier immediately tore out the clothes that he was holding, I wanted to kill him but I cannot get rid away from the soldier that pressed me down
And then that soldier intruded my house again, a few minutes later, he brought out a thing, that was the necklace which Graber has given to Eris before she died. That soldier was looking at the pendal with a very shocked face, he later raised the pendal for his subordinate to see.
"Eh, I nuof nihtemos." (Hey, I found something)
"Aht aw! Eh 'Ssenhgih calkecn!"
(That was! Her Highness's necklace!)
Then the commander of the orc's soldier stepped toward me and then told his subordinate to step away, he later smashed his foot to my belly.
"Tell me! Did you kill Her Highness and stole this thing from her!"
"No! I didn't, she died also for protecting us! She is now buried behind the backyard!"
"This crime won't be spared! When we get back to the Palace, I will report it to Her Majesty right away! Precious the times you can live before you die, you filthy human!"
"Now lead me to Her Highness's grave! We must bring her back to Her Majesty for the funeral!" - That soldier pulled my collar and led me to the backyard
When we got to the backyard, that soldier pushed me down to the ground and ordered his subordinate to tie me, I tried to resist but then I have been tired and got tied up.
"Tell me where is Her Highness's grave!"
"The farthest one to the right which has a straw laurel."
"This laurel did not deserve for Her Highness! She should have worn the Crown on her head!" - That soldier tore out the laurel, that was the gift that my daughter gave for Graber's grave
Then the soldier looked around and saw there was a shovel which was my handmade tool, he took the shovel and dug Graber's grave at a very fast speed. Just in one minute, Graber's corpse has exposed under the grave, she has just died a day ago so her body was still new.
The soldier slowly held Graber's corpse in very respect and wore her previous necklace back to her neck, both of the orc soldiers kneeled on the ground, they chanted their hands as if to pray.
"Uoy Senhgih, w aews t oy w liw kam iht amuh ap of aht h id t oy, ser i caep."
(Your Highness, we swear to you we will make this human pay for what he did to you, rest in peace)
Those two soldiers pulled me to the place near the carriage and then pushed me to the ground, one of the soldiers held Graber's corpse with very respect and slowly put her corpse on the carriage.
I was now trying to get rid of the rope that tied me, when I loosed the rope, I would kill these orcs for revenge but I tried many ways but cannot do anything to make it lose, it was so tight.
"Now obey and follow us back to the Palace!" - The commander of the orc's soldier shouted toward me, his saliva also stick to my face
Then after seeing I have struggling so much but cannot lose the rope, that commander crouched close to me and made a smug.
"Rarrgh!" - I charged toward that orc and then bit his right cheek, I immediately rushed out with that orc's skin meat on my teeth and then swallowed the skin
"You! You! I will make you sure you will die!" - That orc angrily got inside the carriage and then pulled out a weapon that looked like a rifle
That rifle model looked to have a similar design to the M1 Garand Semi-Automatic Rifle which was used by the US Military in the Second World War. But this rifle has a purple color and the material that made the rifle looked to be made of very well made material.
That orc later changed the position of the rifle to its butt and then hit my forehead with a very strong blow with the rifle's butt, I lost consciousness.
...
I woke up and felt myself was now sitting somewhere, my head seemed to be covered in a bag or something so I cannot see anything.
The bag that covered my face had been pulled out later and I saw in front of me was now a very big room that looked to be a very long hallway. I was surrounded by many orc soldiers that wore purple armor, they were now surrounding me from behind and forward the hallway.
Suddenly an orc threw a sword to the floor, I immediately snatched the sword and then drew it out from the scabbard without knowing the intention of the orcs why did they throw the sword at me.
"We will start the punishment here, I didn't report back to Her Majesty because she would kill you anyway."
"I heard you humans have a thing called honor, now show us that, we will kill you here in honor, you filthy human."
I recognized that voice was the commander of the orc's soldiers that intruded in my house and killed my family, now finally!
I now had the chance to revenge on my family, I saw there were dozens of orcs surrounding me but I didn't care, I didn't scare of death anymore, I will revenge.
Shera, Eris, wait for me! I will revenge for you two, my dear wife, my dear daughter, when I have done killing these orcs, I will kill myself to follow you two, we will be together forever!
Then the orcs slowly stepped toward me while holding the swords, I was very close to them now and was about to kill them or be killed.
Maybe I will die before I could kill any orcs but I will be very happy when I died with Shera and Eris, to die with your loved ones was the most precious thing.
"Lah!" (Halt!) - A loud voice suddenly came out from nowhere, after hearing that, the orcs suddenly stepped away from me and exposed a very wide hallway in front of me
That was a woman with very long white-haired, wore a purple dress, she had eyes in yellow, her head had two small black horns.
That woman slowly walked toward me with a very straight face, her posture and her aura, the way she walked and her facial expressions made me feel she looked to be a ruler, was this woman the Demon Lord?
" 'Taht uo Merpur Omed Rol!"
(That's our Supreme Demon Lord!) - Some Orc soldiers talked to each other as if they were so shocked, they were all bowed full of respect toward the woman as she walked past them
This woman walked toward me while keeping that straight face, she was very close to me, did you want to die or what, you little Demon Lord?
If you wanted to die then I would kill you! I will revenge for my wife and my daughter!
"D on catta iht am uohtiw iht 'Emerpus edro!"
(Do not attack this man without this Supreme's order!) - That woman shouted loud to the soldiers when they were about to attack me when I was raising my sword above and was about to attack her
Then suddenly the woman that I considered Demon Lord suddenly walked toward me again after ordering the soldiers not to attack me. I immediately struck the sword down to her head and was about to kill her in an only strike.
Suddenly, the Demon Lord's eyes glowed, the yellow eyes had now turned blue and glowed, around her were the blue electric lines that looked to be a round electricity barrier.
My sword had already struck down but had been blocked by the electricity barrier, the sword was floating around the barrier and could not touch Demon Lord's head.
The Demon Lord later snatched my sword and fastly pointed the blade toward my throat with a very straight face, if I moved an inch toward her, my throat would hit the blade.
"Tell me your name now, human." - The Demon Lord asked me with that straight face, she looked to have no hesitation to kill me if I didn't answer
What did she want from me?
