The new colony had one Orc General ruling the drove.
Close to half of the colony raid nearby human settlents to secure food and won. They were probably waiting for their spoils to co back right about now. The Orc General who was looking forward to making the females into seedbeds did not notice the footsteps of a death god approaching.
Even orcs had enough intelligence to have soone standing guard at the entrance to their colony. Especially in groups led by a superior species, the division of roles is firmly decided.
Two orcs were standing on guard at the entrance to village which couldn’t be called a gate.
This orc settlent was made in a slightly opened space inside the forest, where a gathering of simple huts were made by logs joined together.
A leader appeared from the drove of orcs that strayed in from another place and built a colony here.
Then it began to attack the human villages it finds. The entire colony eagerly awaited the food and seedbed-to-be won.
Even the orcs standing watch were excited hoping to enjoy the leftovers.
……though that wish would never co true.
The orcs were clearing the trees, so it was easy to sense incoming enemies at this ti where the sun was high in the sky. Moreover, the orcs had sensitive noses, so they presud that they would not overlook anything that wasn’t their kind.
On that day, their consciousnesses faded into darkness, never to awaken once more……
Kaede and I dispatched the two guarding orcs.
Sneaking up from behind, Kaede, with her claws, and I, with my dagger, stabbed the base of their necks.
Considering the sensitive noses of the orcs, we would first kill them with the least possible amount of blood shed.
I stored the dead orcs in my Item Box. By so chance, there may already be people who’ve been treated horribly here. That’s why we’re trying our best to not be noticed.
We approached the crude structures soundlessly, stabbing at the base of their heads.
Kaede and I killed the remaining orcs, one after the other.
「(I wonder if they’ll notice by now.)」
「(The boss is with the underlings.)」
The ruling species which seems to be the Orc General in a largish hut with several orcs.
「(For now, let’s clean up all the surrounding orcs. Lets leave the orc chief last.)」
「(Roger, Master.)」
Kaede and I went through each of the buildings.
Our presence detection didn’t sense any victims in the village, but the chances that there was soone close to death was around wasn’t 0. That’s why, we were taking it one by one.
When we snuck silently into the doorless hut and approached the orc overindulging itself on who knows what kind of at, I stabbed it in the neck without any hesitation.
It convulsed a bit, slumping down, and eventually stopped moving.
All the small huts surrounding the larger hut where the Orc General sat were exterminated in no ti at all.
They were stabbed in the back of the neck, so perhaps they wouldn’t sll the scent of blood, but just in case, I placed all the dead orcs in my Item Box.
Inside one of the huts, rough snorting could be heard.
Kaede and I changed hand signs as we confird our targeted prey, getting ready to strike the hut at the right ti.
The hut had the Orc General, three normal Orcs, and two Orc Leaders. Kaede and I killed the ordinary orcs.
No longer having to worry about blood, I severed its head.
Beside , Kaede cut off the orc’s head using her thread.
Blood spurt from the two fallen corpses.
Gufoooooooooo!!
The orc suddenly spraying blood from its throat and the orc that fell with blood pouring out like a water fountain caused mayhem in the hut.
The Orc General roared, grabbing the giant axe set aside in the room.
By the ti the Orc General lifted its giant axe over its shoulder, Kaede and I had slain the remaining orc and two of the Orc Leaders.
Bufooooooーー!!
The Orc General roared in anger.
When the Orc General, with its 3m tall body, did a full horizontal swing, the crude hut collapsed.
Kaede and I escaped before the hut collapsed over us.
Bakyaaaaan!!
Wood splintered flew as the Orc General yelled in anger.
For an individual that leads a drove of a thousand, the Orc General had a stronger presence than expected.
「But not anymore.」
「Compared to a dragon, right~!」
Kaede and I split up and ran.
