Chapter 11: Orcs

"So how did you get here?" asked Hide after the meeting. We were currently inside his private room and another tree. "Well, i was visiting the port city Trish when the humans managed to break through our defenses. I was captured and brought to the human continent but fortunately, i was rescued by this group of people." he replied back. "What about you?" he continued. "Well they managed to attack the capital and i was captured then." "And?" he pestered me. "And what?" "How did you escape obviously!" "I uh managed to escape by tricking them by saying i wanted to go to the toilet." i lied.

"Right...." He clearly didn't believed me but did not chased the topic anymore. "So what are you guys trying to achieve anyway?" i asked him. "Our group hope to liberate all the slaves and have a peace treaty with the humans!" Hide replied back while looking proud. "So how are you planning to achieve that?" The door slammed open and and Slyvia walked in while glaring at me. "I hope you are not telling HER our plan right? She is still suspicious and might be a spy." 

"But Slyvia, i know her personally and i trust her!" he protested. "Well i don't trust her so you can't tell her." she argues back while giving me a death stare every once in a while. What's her problem. "Sorry Zaomi but i can't tell you it seems." Hide said while giving me a apologetic look. "It's fine. Not like i was going to stay for long anyway." "You are leaving? Why not stay here?" "I have things to do somewhere else." 

"When are leaving?" he asked me. "Tomorrow." i revealed. "EH! Why are you leaving so fast! I thought you would stay longer." he said while looking crestfallen. "Jeez why are you looking so sad you idiot." Slyvia butted in. I quietly left the room while they were talking. I went to group level and there was tents as well. There was children running around, playing with each other and many campfires around as well. 

As i was walking around, i noticed a stairs heading down into the ground. "Hey Lisa!" i called out to her as she was talking to another dryad. "Yes?" "Where does that stairs lead to?" "Well since Hide trust you, i will tell you but don't tell Slyvia. That leads to the dwarf kingdom but is currently closed to anyone since the tunnel collapsed after an earthquake happened sometime ago." "I see.. thanks Lisa." "Your welcome." she replied but before she could walk off, a small boy glowing as if he was a spirit appeared.

"We have a problem Lisa." the boy said to her. "There is a group of orcs approaching this place. There appears to be High trolls with them as well." he continued. "How many are there and how far are they?" Lisa asked looking worried. "Appears to be around 300 orcs and about 50 High trolls with them." "S..so many!" Lisa said, looking shock. "Quickly warn the other 2 and ask them to meet at the grand tree meeting room. 

I followed after Lisa up the huge ass tree again. "What are we going to do about this?" Slyvia asked the other 2 at the table. I was standing at the back of the room listening in to their conversation. "Should we run?" Lisa suggested. "No. We stand and fight. We know the terrain better than they do." Slyvia interjected. "We have about 300 people that is ready to fight." Hide added. "We should be able to reduce their numbers with our mages since orcs don't have the ability to use magic like we do." Slyvia said. 

"Orcs are not some stupid creatures you know. They must know that we can use magic and that they can't so why are they approaching us?" Lisa questioned. "Cause they are idiots. That's why." Slyvia said. "The High troll is the problem. They have high magic resistance and can endure massive amount of physical punishment before going down." Hide added in. "They will arrive in 9 hours at most." the boy spirit appeared and informed us. "How is that possible?" Lisa asked. 

"They started charging here after i informed you that they were seen." the boy answered back. "They don't seem to be slowing down at all." he continued. "Prepare the people for battle now." Slyvia shouted before leaving the room. We have decided that we will meet them head on in a open area where we will bombard them with magic. By the time the orcs arrived, there was a mixture of beast kins and elves with moving trees as well which are treants. 

They appeared while we were waiting for them. They charged across the field before stopping about 300 meters away. One orc that seemed to be the commander then shouted at us. "Give us the person with black hair and we shall spare your puny lives." he shouted. Huh, is he talking about me? I never even seen that guy before. "Prepare the spells." Lisa shouted out, ignoring the orc. Almost everyone was staring at me. 

"Your puny magic will not affect us!" the orc shouted at us before walking back to his army. Lisa and Slyvia with other mages started chanting together, preparing to cast a huge aoe spell. "Goddess of the sun, head our prayers. Take our sacrifice and burn the enemy of us! Omega Blaze!" Seven huge red magic circle appeared above the orcs before a huge beam from the sun slammed down on them. 

The heat could be felt even though we were far away. After the beam slowly became smaller before disappearing, massive dust and smoke covered where the orcs were. "That was easy." Slyvia said arrogantly before turning around and walking off. "GAHAHAHA YOU THINK THAT PUNY MAGIC AFFECTS US?" a deep voice boomed around the field. As the dust cleared away, it was evident that none of the orcs or the tall High trolls seemed affected at all. "Impossible." Slyvia gasped while looking at them.

The ground around the orcs were all scorched and glowing red hot but the ground below the orcs seemed fine. If one looked closer at the orcs, it could be seen that they were giving off dark mist from their body and their eyes completely white but that cannot be seen seen the majority of them were wearing helmets. 

I had already climbed up one of the tree and shot the orc commander through his head with my Barrett which i had already taken out. The orc commander's head exploded, spewing brain matter around the other orcs. As the large 'bang' sound echoed around, the orcs looked at their dead commander before looking at us. "I shall take charge now. CHARGE!" another orcs that was beside the commander shouted. The dark mist came out from the dead body of the commander before disappearing. 

"Do whatever you did to the commander to the trolls as well!" Lisa shouted at me. The orcs started charging at the elves and beast kins while screaming and the trolls slowly walked towards the as well. I looked into my scope and aimed at one of the troll head. As i zoomed in, i noticed that it's eyes were white. "What the hell.... they look like they are possessed. I remembered a tv show where possessed people had white eyes with no iris.

I pressed the trigger and the troll's head exploded. This Barrett is supposed to be used against armored targets so the troll's head exploding is not surprising. I quickly took aim at the other trolls and put them down. As the orcs got closer to the elves and beast kins, the treants smashed their hands into the ground. Roots erupted from below the orcs and skewered many orcs from below. Archers released their arrows which flew into the orcs army. 

Although many arrows were deflected off their armor, some managed to find the chinks in the armor and put them down. Arrows that was shot at the trolls was useless as the arrows just bounced of their skin. The orcs soon crashed head on into the beast kins which are at the front line. The orcs were pushing back the beast kin. Even though they slashed at the orcs at the leg, chest or anywhere that is not vital, they continued attacking without hesitation. It was like the had no sense of pain. 

"Ge..get away from me!" one of the beast kin screamed as an orc kicked him down before using it's axe to chop of his head. Many orcs jumped onto the treants and started hacking away at it with their weapons. The elves stayed at the back using their bows to attack. "Dammit Heaven's Strike!" i cast at the orcs as i watched many of the beast kin getting hacked down. Dark clouds started gathering above and started striking down randomly among the orcs. 

The orcs that were hit by the lightning had spasm before falling down dead. It continued to strike randomly at orcs while i kept on supplying it with mana. "Retreat!" someone shouted out. Immediately the beast kins that was fighting started running back to the base while the treants stopped the orcs from advancing. "Come on Zaomi, we have to go now!" Hide yelled at me from below. "But the treants!" "It's okay. They are just inhabiting a tree and making it move. They can move to another tree if needed." he replied back.

I jumped down from the tree and followed Hide back to the base. As i looked behind, i could see the treants forming a line and stopping any orcs from advancing. The trolls soon reached the treants and started hammering down on them. The treants were holding on but not for long.

"Sorry but i am going back." i said to Hide before running back to where the orcs were. "No don't!" Hide shouted after me and tried to chase after me but Slyvia stopped him. "Go!" Slyvia yelled at me before dragging along Hide. This one time Slyvia is useful. I ran back to where the treants were getting pounded to the ground by the trolls. The treants were getting broken up by the trolls by ripping the tree apart with brute force.

I immediately took out my energy sword and cast Sword Dance. Eight energy sword appeared around me and i willed for them to start piercing through the orcs. The swords flew up into the air before diving down at the orcs and going through their chest and pulling back up like how dive bombers does. I stayed back and continued sniping the trolls since their head was higher than the orcs head.

With the treants still tanking the trolls and orcs, they were put down quickly by my attacks. The orcs started looking around in confusion and glared at the swords diving at the orcs and killing them. "Stop the swords!" one of the orc cried out and a troll attempted the grab the blade as it flew past it. The trolls fingers were sliced through and fell on to the ground. 

The enemy numbers quickly dwindled as time flew. There was only a few orcs left soon and they started retreating back to where they came from. I had used about 27 bullets to take down the trolls and decided to save the rest of the ammo which is 2 ammo. I continued to cut down the rest of the orcs until 3 of them were left. I had already sliced of their limbs before walking up to them. They won't bleed to death since the wound would instantly be cauterized by the heat from the sword.

"So why are you looking for me?" i interrogated the 3 orcs left. "Th...the black haired person?" one of them spluttered. "We were ordered to bring you to our master." the other one said. "Whose your master?" i questioned them again but they did not respond. "Keeping quiet now are we?" I took out the energy sword and stabbed one of the orc through the abdomen.

"GAHH!" he screamed out in pain. "EJECT!" the orc i was stabbing screamed out and a black mist came out from the mouth of the orc and disappeared into thin air. The orc i was stabbing died instantly. "What was that?" "That idiot! Ejecting is the last resort! Lord Abaddon will not be pleased." and with that, the other 2 orcs shouted the word eject before the black mist came out and disappeared again.

"Abaddon eh.... who the fuck is he?" "HEY ZAOMI ARE YOU THERE?" someone shouted from the way back to the base. "Stop shouting Hide. I can hear you just fine." i replied back to him. "By the way, did you kill all those orcs?" he questioned me. I was going to lie and say no when Lisa came out as well. "She sure did kill all those orcs with some weapons i didn't see before." she interjected. Ah so annoying that Lisa. To think that she would be watching.

"Were you watching or something?" i asked her. "Nope. Remember the spirit that warned us, he told me." Lisa exclaimed. The field was littered with orc corpses and trolls. There was brain matters splattered everywhere with guts and blood staining the grass. "All this corpses is going to be a feast for the treants." Lisa continued. "Well that's convenient." i replied to her. "Anyway, can i see that sword of yours?" Lisa squealed with excitement. 

"Sorry but i can't show you cause it is my secret weapon after all." "Muhhhh" Lisa pouted. "Let's head back to the base shall we?" she continued. I didn't tell them what the orcs told me yet. We started going back to base in silence except for Lisa's constant bickering. "You didn't die?" Slyvia looked at me in disbelief. "Well sorry that i didn't die." i retorted back. "Don't be rude Slyvia." Hide scolded her.

"We lost 67 men in the battle. You have some explaining to do Zaomi." Slyvia said. "I have no idea why they were after me so yeah sorry." i replied back to her. "You might be lying." Slyvia continued to accuse me. "Hey give her a break already! She killed all the remaining orcs you know!" Hide defended me. "Why do you always take her side!" she shrilled before storming off back to her tree house. "Let her cool down and she will be back to normal." Lisa speculated. "Right....."

"Kukuku looks like finally someone is compatible with that sealed disgrace." a voice resounded around a room with a fireplace. The door creaks open and a maid walks into the room. "Lord Abaddon, the other demon lords are seeking for your attendance in the next meeting and they also asks for your analysis." the maid informed a figure in a clad of full body red armor that was watching a scene in a bowl of water. 

"Tch what a burden." the person grumbled before getting off his sofa and started walking towards the door. A long lizard like tail could be seen being dragged behind it as it walked. He walked down a hallway that had no decoration except for a dark red wallpaper. There was two huge red horns that protruded through the helmet he was wearing over his head. He reached a huge grand door and paused for a while before entering the room.

"Take a seat Abaddon, you sure took your own sweet time getting your ass here." a figure seated commented. There was a huge chandelier hanging over a giant grand golden rectangular table with smooth edges at the corner. There was 4 figures sitting around the table. "Calm the fuck down Belphegor. Even walking here as such a drag for me." Abaddon grunted before taking a seat. Now there was 3 seats that was occupied on one side while the other side had only 2 seats occupied. There is a seat empty at the width of the table.

The person Abaddon was talking to was wearing a modern day black suit and was wearing sunglasses. He has black hair and he looked just like normal human except that there is a hole where a normal person's heart would have been. "Stop complaining about everything Belphegor. It's irritating to keep on hearing your whiny voice." a creature with the upper part of the body being a human women while the bottom part of that of a spider. The human part was just wearing a simple white t-shirt and has black hair as well that extended to the waist and looked about the age of 20 and had C cup size for her breasts. Her eyes also remains closed and have not opened them since entering the room.

"Oh shut up Aragok. You can go back to your pathetic nest instead of staying here." Belphegor growled at her. "Hmph listening to you makes my ears bleed." Aragok responded back swiftly. "Hey hey Abaddon, so hows my new darlings body?" another voice louder than the rest resounded across the room. "Well Lilith sorry to burst your bubble but your new darlings body is a little girl's body now." Abaddon answered lazily. 

"What! No way.....doesn't matter. What matters is the inside only is what humans say right? Hehehe." a girl around the age of 16 laughed. She has black and sliver hair that goes down all the way to the thighs and has a long tail with the end of it being a spade shape and also has 2 large leathery wings folded behind her back.  She has normal looking eyes that is black and has B cup size. 

There is one more figure that had not uttered a single word after coming here. "Ho ho looks like Beelzebub has substituted his presence with a pillow dummy. Not bad." Aragok said with a hint of admiration in her voice. The door opened and another maid walked in. "Sorry to all those who gathered but i am sick and i will not be leaving my territory so the meeting will be canceled is what demon king Lucifer asked me to say." and with that, the maid bowed and left the room.

Nobody said a thing after the maid left until Belphegor broke the silence. "What the fuck? How does he even get sick?" "His lying about getting sick you idiot!" Aragok ridiculed him. "He just became lazy to leave his room to attend the meeting he organized." "Did our king just become a shut-in?" Abaddon questioned. "Hahaha he never fails to surprise me!" Lilith exclaimed while getting up from her chair. "Well i will be leaving now so see you guys next time!" she waved at before teleporting away. "That was a waste of time." Abaddon muttered before leaving as well.

--------------Somewhere near the coast of the human continent----------------

"Shouldn't we report back to master Raphael about the someone managing to eat the pill and surviving it?" "And get our ass whooped?" "Oh hell no. Ain't nobody got time for that." "But isn't the pill actually a seal containing one of the demon lord?" "It isn't even suppose to be in the reward chest. We were suppose to guard it but all the people until now that we tricked them into swallowing the seal just burned up." "We should strike while the seal hasn't been fully release yet." "I got her scent so we can track her down." "We need to transform before heading onto land since humans will attack us with our current body."

The 9 headed hydra slowly started becoming smaller and smaller it became a body of a 13 year old girl with blueish green hair that extended down to the waist and having yellow eyes. "Why are we not in a body of an adult human?" "Because a body of a child will cause attackers to underestimate us and we shall use that hesitation to strike down the enemy!" "I see. What a wonderful plan." "Let's head to the nearest human habitation to explore before tracking her down. "I haven't been outside the dungeon since like forever!"
