The Record of Orc Civilization-Chapter 104 Law Of Monster Family
Inside a tent that's bigger than the rest. Anna is seen breastfeeding Nash. Her lip was smiling brightly as if there was no problem but her eyes were so empty staring into nothingness.
The surrounding goblins didn't bother Anna. They focus on their work. Some clean the tents, some prepare food, and some heat the water in the bathhouse. Each of the goblins worked diligently without any protest.
After Nash's birth, Shezz decides to send some goblins to help Anna take care of her baby. At first, Anna refused because she was not used to having a maid, but after knowing how difficult it was to take care of a baby alone, Anna agreed to Shezz's proposal.
When Moku returns he commends Shezz's initiative and adopts it into a new law. In order to speed up the integration between monster races, Moku created a family system where a family would have all types of monster races in it.
Each orc was required to choose a new surname for themselves and the name would be juxtaposed in front of their real name. Then the orcs are required to choose several monsters from other races to enter their family and they are also entitled to bear the orc family name.
The number of monsters from other races that can enter an orc family is calculated based on the number of their race populations. Just like the goblin race that has the most population will get a larger quota than other monster races.
While the alraune whose number is only a few dozen monsters from the orcs' number will get the least quota. However, each orc must still choose at least one alraune to enter his family and become the physician of the family. f𝘳ℯℯ𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oν𝑒Ɩ.c𝑜𝙢
The selection of new family members is carried out in order of course starting with Moku and his wives. Then followed by the orcs who became the head of the division and continued by his deputy then the other orcs who had good performances in the previous war against mages.
Moku chose 10 male goblins and Tam into his family including Ez and Hoddurt. Those who previously had wives and children also had the right to enter the Moku family. This caused the number of female goblins who wanted to marry the 10 male goblins to increase rapidly.
There is no monogamous marriage system in the goblin race but Moku limits the number of wives for each monster to no more than 4 wives. As a result, the number of wives of the 10 male goblins increased. But some refuse to add a new wife like Hoddurt and some choose to stay single like Ez and Tam.
Then Nezena chose five female goblins who had faith in The One more than any other goblin. Nezena wants these five goblins to be the first clergy of The One church that she will build.
Nerphyl didn't choose goblins to be her aides. As a sylph queen, she has other sylphs who are her real servants. Moku allows this but he doesn't want the sylphs following Nerphyl to only serve their former queen but also serve Moku's other wives.
While Nevare who was still in bad condition did not make a selection. As a result, Moku decided that the five goblins appointed by Shezz would be Nevare's servants.
As for the alraune who will enter Moku's family of course it was Luna. Luna was already Moku's big sister before this law was made and Moku felt he didn't need to add another alraune to his family. Luna is the most expert about plants in the history of the alraune race, except for the first 9 progenitors of the alraune race.
Luna takes Ornell as her assistant who also joins Moku's family.
Next up are Goku, Boku, and Mige. Those who had previously fought alongside the goblins, sylphs, and alraune already knew who they would choose to join their family. But somehow they fought over Iathra and Volx.
Usually, when there is a difference of interest between the orcs there will be a Palaka fight but with their wounds still not healing, Moku decides to make a draw for the two monsters. Volx was won by Goku and Iathra was won by Boku. While Mige can only bite his lower lip jealously.
After that, the other orcs also made their selections. Swa as Moku's blood brother is loved by many monsters. For some reason, Torgan is also a favorite of monsters, especially alraune who sees Torgan's innocent face with sparkling eyes. ƒ𝔯𝗲𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oѵℯl.𝒄𝑜m
The implementation of this new law did not hinder the pace of preparations for the migration of the monsters. Moku wanted them to be ready to leave on the fifth day after the announcement at Green Caping Hill.
However, Moku still focused some of his attention on this new law because he wanted the monsters to unite immediately. Despite having fought life and death battles together, Moku knew that the effect of this togetherness was temporary if the monsters still lived together with their respective races.
With this new law, Moku abolished all groups based on race and divides them into families.
Widya entered the tent, she saw Anna who was looking at her baby with a smile and empty eyes. Anna's situation these past few days has become a worrying thing for the girls. Previously Claire had tried to talk to Anna but the only response she got was silence and hum that didn't really mean anything.
The two weeks given by Moku drew closer and the number of recovered orcs also increased. Widya is getting worried.
Widya sat in front of Anna with knees touching each other. Widya's very close position will disturb Anna. But Anna remained silent and ignored her.
Anna's state had started since the return of Moku and the other orcs from the battle. No one knew what happened inside the tent when it was just the two of them. The girls only found Anna crying and curled up, her body shaking with fear. The girls were furious but no one dared to ask Moku what he did to Anna.
Widya took a deep breath while seeing the state of the younger girl in front of her. Anna is just a teenage girl, she should be playing with other teenagers, attending parties in beautiful dresses, feeling in love, chatting and laughing happily. But fate was so cruel to her, this young girl had been given the burden of the fate of all the women in the orc tribe who was famous for treating women like livestock.
Widya doesn't want to burden Anna more than this but she is the only way to free Claire from a cruel fate, someone who is more valuable than Widya's own life.
Widya opened her mouth and said slowly "Anna"
Anna's eyes remained blank and a smile seemed to freeze on her face.
Widya called Anna in a louder voice "Anna!"
But the response she got was still the same. Widya's patience ran out and shook Anna's shoulders firmly "ANNA!!"
Like a doll whose threads are reconnected, Anna raised her head stiffly "ah Widya, you're here" she said with a smile still frozen on her lips.
Widya looked at Anna's empty eyes "Anna, Moku will return the girls to the tribe in two weeks!"
There was a slight quiver in Anna's empty eyes but returned still quickly "oh" she answered flatly.
Widya almost lost hope but she kept trying one more time "Anna, what happen? you can tell it to us. We will try to help you"
Once again Anna responded in the same way "oh" this time there was no vibration in her eyes at all.
Widya knew that her words were just bullshit that she said as a form of pleasantries. Even though Anna recounted her fight with Moku there was nothing the girls could do. They themselves expected Anna to help them.
Widya clenched her teeth tightly, with eyes that turned serious Widya said in a very deep voice "Anna, do you know that I am actually Claire's maid?"
Anna's blank eyes turned into focus.
Widya let out a long breath. She looked at the goblins who were still busy working around them. With a begging voice, Widya says "Can you leave us, please?"
The goblins who had been eavesdropping for a while glanced at each other before looking at Anna. They were actually also worried about Anna's condition. As a Nevare, Anna had a special position in the eyes of the monsters so her current state also worried the goblins. Shezz asked them to accompany Anna and watch her not do stupid things like suicide.
Feeling the goblins looking at her asking for permission, Anna nodded and asked them to leave for a while.
After seeing that there were only the two of them in the tent, Widya took a deep breath and steeled her heart. "Claire and I come from a noble family name House of Walton..."
And that is the beginning of the story of a <strong>simple</strong> family.
