Chapter 76 – Orcheim (1)
“Thank you,” Caburak said He was one of the slaves rescued by Crockta and Tiyo His pronunciation was strange due to his broken teeth, but he laughed like he didn't care “I am alive thanks to people like you”
He was riding behind Tiyo on the carukTiyo complained, “Be careful, you spit every time you speak dot!”
Caburak laughed, ”Sorry, kyulkyulkyul! I heard that you are going North, but what is your specific destination?”
“We are heading for the Temple of the Fallen God”
”The Fallen God…?”
“Ask Crockta”
Tiyo gestured towards Crockta Crockta looked at Caburak and nodded ”Yes”
”What brings you there?”
“There is so I want to find out personally”
Crockta looked at the distant horizon If they continued this way, they would arrive at a village of dark elves Although they were hostile towards orcs, he needed to find a way to reach the Temple of the Fallen God
Caburak was heading North to his hoe before splitting up
”Hrmm… Fallen God…” Caburak muttered
Crockta laughed and asked, “Do you know about the Temple of the Fallen God?'
“Froerated manner and touched his chin ”If I were you…hrmm…”
“What is it?”
“Crockta… I want to ask you Why did you save me?”
“Does there need to be a reason?”
“It is like… a personal belief? Or…”
Crockta laughed and replied, “I am a warrior”
“Right, a warrior The ones who captured us were also warriors”
“A real warrior”
”A real warrior?”
“On the southern continent, you can't becohters aren't warriors”
Crockta pointed to his tattoos He had received the Tattoos of Honor when he first becaraded to Tattoos of Honor and Fighting Spirit
These were granted by the shaman who controlled the warrior's ritual, and evolved with the warrior's actions and beliefs Unlike Crockta, there were those who had Tattoos of Power or Tattoos of Revenge
Obviously, those who didn't qualify as warriors couldn't get the tattoos No matter how much power the shaman put in, the tattoos wouldn't appear On the continent, any orcs with tattoos would be a warrior
Crockta continued, “If I had to give you a reason, I would say one thing”
“What is it?”
”The warrior's laws, the fifth one”
”Umm?”
“A warrior doesn't sha others into slaves is a sha”
Orcs rarely mentioned the Gods The first he heard of it hen Lenox taught him the warrior's laws in the Hall of Fame Orcs didn't have statues towards Gods like the Goddess of Benevolence or God of Light like the other species There were no teion that borrowed the divine power of the God
Nevertheless, the warrior's laere an oath to the Gods So Crockta guessed that it was like a belief in his heart
”The Gods!” Caburak's eyes widened ”Gods!”
As if he was listening to the echo, he repeated it once and closed his eyes Then he laughed loudly, ”Kyulkyulkyulkyul! A warrior talking about the Gods!”
Caburak tapped on the shoulder of Tiyo as steering the caruk
”Hey, Tiyo! The orcs in the south are like this! Kyulkyulkyul!”
“It hurts dot, hit ently!”
“Sorry, kyulkyulkyulkyul!” Caburak laughed as the caruk cried out Caburak felt sorry towards the caruk and patted its ass “You want to go to the Temple of the Fallen God?”
”Yes”
“If you aren't in a hurry then you should follow me!”
Caburak pointed to the e that had started to appear on the Northeast horizon “My beautiful home is located in the Luklan Mountains!”
Tiyo's eyes shone at the prospect of a new destination Tiyo wanted to explore everywhere in the North “Hoh, it sounds ical!”
“Kyulkyul, there are also gno nearby”
“Hoh, the Northern gnomes, it must be an impressive place!”
Tiyo glanced at Crockta His eyes expressed a desire to go there Crockta shrugged
“There is no reason not to But why are you inviting us all of a sudden?”
Caburak pointed to Crockta “You mentioned the Gods!”
”Gods?”
“The Northern orcs that reotten! Then you appeared and mentioned the Gods, so I should invite you!” Caburak shouted with a shi+ne in his eyes
“To the Holy Land of the orcs, Orcheim!”
They started to climb the mountain The caruks were able to cliravity, but they were breathing hard after a short period of tiroup decided to take a break
Until recently, they had run through the wilderness and now they were cli a mountain The Northern terrain was really fickle
Crockta looked at Caburak
At first, he was an orc captured by the slaveCrockta defeat Hammerchwi, the clan warriors, and the slave traders, Caburak asked if he could join them on their way Others were thankful to Crockta but they also felt fear Caburak talked intimately with Crockta, the warrior who defeated the Great Clan warriors, without any fear
It wasn't like Caburak had no idea as going on Caburak just had a strange optimis a slave
“I' back home!” He smiled at Crockta
Tiyo asked fro on top of the caruk, ”Hey! Caburak! Where are the gnomes dot?”
“It is near Orcheim so you can stop by there, kyulkyul”
“I wonder what the Northern gnomes will look like!” Then Tiyo pointed to Crockta “The Northern orcs are just strange Crockta! The gnomes will be different dot! Hahahahat!”
”Kuoong”
“Oh Caburak, I didn't mean you dot! Kikik!”
“You're not wrong This gnome friend talks without any hesitation! Kyulkyulkyul!”
Their laughs echoed on the mountain Then soon rose from their seat
“If we go a little future then it will appear”
They dragged the caruks up the her Caburak wasn't in a good state so he kept stu on the steep path Crockta and Tiyo helped him
”Kyulkyulkyul! Thank you!”
