Chapter 1742: Strange looks from orcs
In the end, there wasn’t anything that we could figure out without seeing the arrays that the forces of Destruction used.
The diagram that I drew I left with the cloaked orc to see if he could figure anything out.
Even if I didn’t leave it with him, he would have asked for it with the way that he looked at the diagram.
It was clear that he was interested in this array diagram, so I didn’t mind leaving it in his hands to let him see if he could find anything.
Though the confused look that was on his face as he looked at it showed that the odds weren’t good.
Even if the odds were zero, I still had to take this chance.
Other than that, we were preparing for a trip to the capital of the orcs.
After getting them to agree to working with the racial alliance, the orcs had offered to lead us to the place where the forces of Destruction came from. That was most likely the place where the array that they used to invade this place was as well.
As such, that was the best place to attack to put an end to all of this.
If we could cut off their supply of corruption energy, then the forces of Destruction wouldn’t be able to do anything else.
That was why I decided that the array that they used would be the main target.
But to reach that place, we had to make our preparations first.
It was only natural that the array would be the place that was the most guarded by the forces of Destruction. It would be the place where they concentrated the majority of their power to defend since it was one of their weak spots.
It was very likely that the Apostles of Destruction were there.
It was even possible that there would be one of the Four Omens guarding that place.
The orcs didn’t seem to understand the concept of the Four Omens, but they took it seriously when we showed the serious looks on our faces. We were able to show them that this title that they had wasn’t for show, it was a title that represented the power that they possessed.
Other than that, we would also have to group up with the rest of racial alliance.
Instead of going at it with a small group, it was best if we used the full force of the racial alliance.
Even if the Democratic Union seemed like they were up to something, it wasn’t as if they would be able to do anything with how big the operation was. If they were to do anything, then all that would happen is that they would be ganged up by all of the other nations and cast out of the racial alliance.
At a time like this, to be declared the enemy of humanity would be the end of the Democratic Union.
So it wasn’t as if they would be able to do anything.
The ones that went to find the main force of the racial alliance were the saintess and the royal guards.
Alidus and I remained here since we had the most reputation among the orcs, so we were here to build up our relationship with them. That was because of the strength that we demonstrated while talking to the orcs.
The orcs that we met before were convinced of our strength, but that didn’t mean that the orcs of this settlement were that easily convinced.
That was why we demonstrated it to them with a few simple arm wrestling matches.
The orcs cared about strength and that was the best way to demonstrate our strength.
In the end, we were able to gain the respect of the orcs with the strength that we showed.
Though there was something strange that happened.
Both Alidus and I noticed it right away...even if we didn’t want to notice it.
"Those orc girls are here again..." Alidus said in a soft voice.
I replied in a soft voice with a nod, "Right and they’re looking at us in that strange way as well..."
Though I called it strange, I already knew what it was since this was a look that I was used to seeing. This was the kind of look that other girls had given me before...
While there were those that were into orc girls in my past life, which was why there were some orc girls that were made available to woo in the game, that didn’t mean that all orc girls were beautiful. The ones that were made available to the player in the game had been specially designed to suit their tastes.
As for the ones that were in this settlement...they were the normal orc girls.
These orc girls were hard to differentiate from the males, other than the fact that there was something covering their chest.
They certainly didn’t match either Alidus or my tastes, so it wasn’t as if either of us were interested in them.
At least I had a shield that would keep them away from me.
It was easy for me to flash my wedding ring and that would be enough to make them disappointed.
Though the method that Alidus chose caused a problem for me.
"Stop getting so close to me." I said to him whenever he came close to me to use me as a shield.
However, Alidus would just ignore me and stick close to me.
I could see that this made the orc girls reveal even more strange looks.
It was as if they were excited seeing the two of us act like this...and I knew exactly why they were excited. That was also the reason why I didn’t want him anywhere near me even though he kept trying to come close.
So in the end, I had to threaten him to get him to back down.
It was just that this made the orc girls even more excited.
"So he’s the top." That was what I heard that made me want to dig a hole and hide myself.
