The Record of Orc Civilization-Chapter 134 The Price For Power

When Nerphyl and Tam read the information connected to their brains, their faces turned pale and their teeth chattered. Their bodies trembled and their skin turned cold as if they were looking at a terrifying creature that had suddenly appeared in front of them.

"M..m..Moku, this method?" said Nerphyl stammering. Tam hugged her shivering body assuming that she could warm it up again but instead her body tremble even more violently.

"I know.. It's cruel.. But that's the price of power." Moku said calmly. "Most of you have seen how orcs train and spar. Do you think they're still in your midst right now if they don't have the ability to regenerate? Of course not, the orcs will become extinct on their own if they go through the training I made without the ability. regeneration and their strong endurance" Moku took a deep breath.

"Even so there are still many of them who don't have the qualifications to awaken dragon prana in their bodies. Maybe when you see Boku use dragon prana you think this is an easy thing to do." Moku looked at the crowd of monsters in front of him with serious eyes.

"But the reality is not like that. Dragon prana is a very dangerous force. If I were too late to calm the dragon prana that was in Boku's body at that time, his body would explode. And no matter how fast his regeneration ability to rebuild his body he would still breathe his last right then" Moku smiled bitterly.

"Then, even orcs who have the qualifications to awaken dragon prana have a slight chance of successfully passing the next process. I myself was almost killed while awakening the inner eye and almost went crazy when pouring dragon prana into the generator room" said Moku with his eyes looking at the clouds imagining that incident.

All the monsters that were present swallowed their saliva loudly, except for the orcs who just stared in silence. They already understand the risks they have to take in order to become strong. Moku had repeatedly warned them that the way he found was likely to end in a gruesome death. But they didn't care and kept going because weak orcs were orcs that gave up before trying.

"However, I won't let you guys go through this ritual of unsealing unprepared." Moku returned his attention to the crowd of monsters, especially the sylphs and goblins who were currently completely terrified.

"I will design a training program that will give you a greater chance of surviving the unsealing ritual. However, I want you to understand the risks you will be taking! Nerphyl, Tam, explain to them the process of the two rituals" Moku ordered.

By forcing their tongues to move and their mouths to open, Nerphyl and Tam began to explain the procedures for performing the ritual of unsealing aloud. Starting from Nerphyl with Vithaen Possession Art for sylph and Tam with Mana Cream Cultivation for goblins.

Moku helped both of their voices to be heard by all the monsters with his inner eye. At this moment, Moku noticed that the number of monsters that had the intention to evolve was drastically reduced as their faces turned pale and their bodies shivered.

However, there were some of them who gritted their teeth and stared ahead with courage. This was the only way for them to break away from their weak bodies, become warriors, and be able to compete with mages.

They were the goblins who were at the forefront of the battle with five mages before the orcs arrived. They saw with their own eyes how their friend's body was torn apart by the mage's spell. They felt how helpless they were in front of a mage. And they regretted every second and every breath of their life that they were able to only see their friends killed before their eyes.

They are sylphs who have been human pets or have close friends who have become human pets. They know how cruel humans are. They feel the pain and humiliation of having to entertain people with songs and dances that don't stop for hours. They know how their friends are tortured just for the sake of human sadistic gratification.

They are weak people who have lived with their heads down and let the mana species trample their crowns. When they find light in a dark alley, they will run towards the light even if they have to pass through thousands of thorns and traps that will kill them in the blink of an eye.

Nerphyl gritted her teeth, "Moku! I'll join the training and release my seal! You can't stop me!" she said fiercely.

Neprhyl's words conveyed the cries of the hearts of the monsters who were looking at the podium with burning eyes. There was no more fear, only the will to run towards the glimmer of light from the pitch-dark alley.

Even so, there was still someone who was skeptical about this, and unfortunately that someone was him who could voice it "Moku, where did you get these two rituals? Who told you?" Hoddurt's two questions nearly extinguished the fire that was in the eyes of the monsters.

But Moku already knew that he was going to ask this and he had prepared the answer. With a gentle smile Moku looked at Nerphyl first "Nerphyl, I admire your intentions. However, even if you are my wife, I will not specialize you from the other sylphs. You must successfully pass the training program I have prepared and if you fail you are not eligible to follow this unseal ritual"𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺

Nerphyl flinched a little but her head was lowered to hide the beautiful smile that formed on her face.

Moku then turned to Hoddurt, "Hoddurt, I understand your anxiety over this very dangerous unsealing ritual. Indeed, this ritual that I brought along seems to come suddenly and looks like I made up myself. However, know that these two rituals have the same source as Dragon Breath Cultivation that allowed me to successfully evolve." Moku smiled.

And heard the sigh of all the monsters. Especially Nezena whose eyes were shining brightly and her hands were clasped together like she was praying.

"That's right! These two unsealing rituals and the Dragon Breath Cultivation that allowed me to successfully evolve are from the same source! He is the god we worship! He is the god who wants us to grow stronger! He is The One!" Moku said in a loud voice filled with glory.

Without warning, almost all the monsters knelt down with their hands clasped in praise of The One. Hoddurt's eyes shook, his chest heaved up and down, and he felt something strange "But--"

"Stop it Hoddurt! Don't you dare speak anymore! Don't you think the miracle name Moku isn't enough to prove it to you?" said Nezena with threatening eyes.

Hoddurt's body shook and suddenly he lowered his head "I'm sorry Nezena (Holy Queen), I'm sorry KuMoku, my fear clouding my judgment" said Hoddurt with regret.

Moku smiled.

This is his greatest weapon to cover up all the oddness and strange thoughts that he has carried all this time. Moku has no other choice, he is so unique, he is a former human who lives in a different world, plus the Mind Realm which is now one of his homes. Moku has too many secrets that he has to hide.

Moku doesn't feel any threat from someone as completely smart as Ez. They are people who are too easy to read situations so they have to filter out all thoughts that are not very useful for their survival.

While those who are half-smart like Hoddurt, have many questions that really don't need to be answered or debated. They sometimes ask just to ask. It would be a huge waste of a leader's time to answer those questions.

Just like those who keep asking if the world is controlled by a few people who make other people poor because those few people take all the resources. Even if they know the answer and it's a real thing, they still won't be able to use it for their betterment. Only anger they can get and even if they scream until their voices run out, the rich will still be rich and they will still be poor.

That's why religion is one solution to keep them from stupid thoughts that are not useful in their lives.

And that's the weapon Moku uses to cover Hoddurt's mouth or anyone who's pretentious without him having to tell them about his reincarnation and the Mind Realm. After all, the orcs would see the Mind Realm with their own eyes when they reached the second evolution.

"It's okay Hoddurt, The One knows how devoted you are to him! And the only mistake you make is to let fear control you." said Moku softly.

Moku didn't wait for Hoddurt's answer. He turned his head back to the crowd of monsters in front of him.

"I divided the training into two for each unsealing ritual. For those of you who want to follow it, please meet Nerphyl and Tam! We will start training today! The meeting ends here! May we fight together in The One's heaven!"

"May we fight together in The One's heaven!" all the monsters answered in unison.
