The Record of Orc Civilization-Chapter 16 Wind Of War
[Stonhold Kingdom, Gaht Mansion]
From the outside this mansion looks simple. It had been built with blue stone and had blue stone decorations.
Small rectangular windows add to the overall look of the mansion and have been added to the mansion in a mostly asymmetrical way.
This mansion is equipped with a kitchen and two large bathroom, also has a living room, five bedrooms, a spacious dining area, a playroom, and a spacious garage.
The building is L-shaped. It extends into a garden path that reaches the end of the side of the mansion.
The second floor is smaller than the first, which allows for a roof garden on two sides of the mansion. This floor has more or less the same style as the floor below.
The roof is high and sloping to one side and covered with brown ceramic tiles. Two large chimneys sit beside the mansion. Several large windows let enough light into the space under the roof.
The mansion itself is surrounded by a beautiful garden, including a variety of trees, shrubs, flowers and a large pond.
This mansion belongs to Stent Gaht, the strongest Human and mage in the Stonhold kingdom, the largest and most powerful kingdom of the human species.
Shoulder-length blonde hair almost covered hir slender and worn-out face.
Closed gray eyes, sunk in their sockets, Showing a life experience that no one can imagine.
The slashing scar cut across his right cheek to his lips, making his blond beard look even more terrifying.
Stent looked at his only son who was busy eating his lunch. He was Stent's most important treasure and the only memory his late wife left behind.
Stent didn't touch his food, he just looked at his son with a soft smile. Stent had not been able to eat meat for a long time.
Maybe it was because he was always reminded of the flesh of the elves and humans that he had torn or torn apart in front of him.
But he still sat and waited for his son to eat. His son was named Robert Gaht.
Robert Gaht is currently 15 years old, the minimum age to enter the Stonefold Military Academy.
Stonefold Military Academy is the largest human Mage training ground in the human alliance. Dozens of mages who graduated from the Academy became the spearhead of the Human Alliance.
Therefore, the future Mage who made it into this academy were talented teenagers who would become the future of the Human Alliance.
Stent never forced his son to become the strongest Mage. Stent didn't even want his son to know about war.
He was tired of war. Stent had joined the war against the Elves at a young age.
Stent at that time was just an ordinary soldier, he continued to fight, kill, and watch his friends get killed until he finally became the strongest Human. It was not a happy memory that he was proud of.
After fighting for more than 50 years, Stent only wants his son to be able to live a quiet and happy life.
"Father, what about the lion meat I just caught?" Robert smiled innocently.
Short blonde hair tied in a ponytail showing a cheerful and energetic face.
His glowing blue eyes were firmly in their sockets, staring at his father whom he was so proud of.
His fair skin elegantly complimented his nose and mouth and left pleasant memories of his lucky appearance.
Robert's face was more like his mother's, but his hair was the same color as Stent's.
"Delicious! This is a white lion, right? A mutated animal that is classified as a iron tier" Stent looked amazed.
"Of course! I hunted him alone without anyone's help!" Robert puffed out his chest.
"HAHAHAHA! My son is indeed a talented mage candidate" Stent had the opportunity to praise his son.
"hehehehe after I graduate from the military academy, I will become stronger! That way I will go with you against that stupid elf!" Robert clenched his fists.
Stent smiled bitterly at his son's dream. If he could, he didn't want to fight anymore, he was sick of seeing corpses.
Stent will lose his motivation in life if he sees Robert's corpse. Of course Stent didn't want to take his son's dream away.
He would protect and support Robert even if it cost him his life. Stent made a promise in his heart.
"Of course, my son will be—"
The wind that blew into their house and hit Stent's face.
His smile froze. Stent frowned and his face darkened.
His fatherly aura changed, making the air tremble, all that was left was the Stent Gaht the Hero of Light, the strongest Human.

[Vengard Kingdom, White Castle]
Eleven slender square towers reach twice the height of the next tallest building in this elegant castle and are connected by a lower solid wall made of green stone.
The tall and wide windows were spread thinly across the walls in a seemingly random pattern, along with holes of various sizes for archers and artillery.
A huge gate with huge iron doors, drawbridge and huge battlemant provided a safe place to rest in this jungle fort and it was the only way in, at least without breaking down the castle walls.
A number of waterfalls flow into various small rivers and provide the water needed for the valuable agricultural fields outside the castle.
The castle is showing signs of expansion as some parts are clearly built more recently than others, the residents are already working on other parts and hope to continue to expand.
In one of the castle towers two Elves with different skin colors are hugging while gazing at the clouds.
The sky was clear, the sound of birds chirping, and the white clouds that lined up added to the intimacy between the two of them.
These two elves were the Wood Elves and the Night Elves.
Since the formation of the Elf Alliance, the relationship between the Wood Elves and the Night Elves had improved. Many of them married each other.
The voices for uniting the two races were getting louder, but the Elf alliance that was at war with the Human Alliance didn't have time to take care of it.
Until finally there was a truce due to the presence of The Beast Kingdom. The two strongest Elves at that time decided to marry and merge their kingdoms.
These two Elves were already shoulder to shoulder while fighting the Human Alliance. The love of the two had grown for a long time but only after the truce did they have time to be together.
Silver dreadlocks awkwardly hang over a full and lively face. Heavy blue eyes, arranged symmetrically in their sockets, watched warmly at the beautiful woman before him.
The scar that stretched from just below his left eyebrow, ran down his nose and ended on his left cheek, left memories of a battle with a powerful foe.
Iron Darius was very happy. He is so grateful to have had the opportunity in his life to embrace his beautiful wive.
Blonde and wavy hair clumsily hung over a thin, radiant face.
Beady yellow eyes, gently sinking into their sockets, watched hungrily at the land they had build together.
Smooth skin happily compliments her hair and tells beautiful stories about her luck in love. fr𝚎e𝙬𝚎𝚋𝚗૦ν𝚎𝒍.c૦m
Lily Ariel leaned her head against her husband's chest. Heard Darius' heartbeat and confirmed that he was really with her.
Darius stroked his wife's hair. These two Elves built their kingdom far from the borders of the Elves and Human Alliance.
They didn't want to be disturbed, unless the Human Alliance attacked. The two of them didn't want to interfere in the alliance's political affairs.
They built their kingdom in two places, above ground and underground.
The Wood Elves who used to live above the ground and the Night Elves who used to live underground, called their beloved Kingdom by the name of the two-colored castle.
White Castle and Black Castle.
The two of them didn't talk to each other, just happy to feel their partner's presence. Until the east wind blew, the two elves froze.
"Darius..." Ariel looked at her husband worriedly.
"I know Ariel... I know" Darius sighed "Looks like this peace won't last long" Darius looked at the origin of the wind.
"I still want to stay here" Ariel hugged tightly and hid in Darius' chest. It was as if, if she didn't see it then it wouldn't have happened.
"Me too Ariel... Me too" Darius replied, hugging and stroking his wife's hair again.
The two strongest elves were forced to return.
....
[Beast Kingdom, Lionbeast Tribe]
A light brazier encircling each of the six obsidian pillars illuminates every part of the throne hall and coats the hall with a warm yellow hue.
Marble from the embedded ceiling dances in the flickering light while gargoyles and statues gaze down on the maple floor of this elegant hall.
Leather carpets stretched and covered the entire stone floor, while the walls were covered with the skulls of giant animals.
The large stained glass windows of heavenly mosaics are bordered by the same coral-colored curtains as the banners.
A majestic bone throne sat in front of all of them, so that its owner could see the entire room with his piercing gaze.
Two slanted eyes looked around him from their narrow sockets. The hooked nose lies down, but it's the mouth below that takes all the attention.
A happy smile revealed two large canines and a rough tongue. Small square ears are on each side of his large, thin head, which is covered by his bushy blonde mane.
Beastking had forgotten his real name and used the title of warbeast lord as his name. He was the strongest warbeast and ruler of the entire Beast Kingdom.
With a straight back and hands resting on his chin, Beastking sat on his throne and watched his chattering wives.
The lionbeast race is famous for its polygamous nature, rarely having more than 5 males in one tribe. No one knows what the fate of the adult male lionbeasts will be f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶
Even so the female lionbeast has the same or more strength than the male lionbeast. So that the lionbeast race will remain strong without a male lionbeast other than their king.
Beastking although looking relaxed but he was thinking about something serious. His wives knew that and didn't bother him.
Although the Warbeast species united and formed The Beast Kingdom, they still live in their respective tribal territories.
So that even though it has formed a kingdom, the Beast Kingdom still has a government consisting of tribes.
Warbeasts would obey their chieftain's orders more than Kingbeasts. This makes the situation even more complicated.
Even though the Lawsii forest was the largest forest in the Meer continent, the population of Warbeasts that continued to grow every year would quickly make the Lawsii forest densely populated.
Warbeast is a species that has the largest population growth rate even exceeding humans. In the past they were always at war so that there was no problem like this.
It wasn't just a single chieftain who came to Beastking asking for permission to invade and seize the territory of the Human Alliance or the Elf Alliance.
But The Beastking refused all the requests. Yet he could not continue to refuse their requests.
If the Beastking continued to refuse requests from the chiefs then there was a high possibility of internal chaos and other warbeast tribes uniting to depose him from the throne.
Even so, Beastking's instincts told him that this was not the time to declare war on the two alliances.
As beasts, their instincts exceed those of any other mana species and therefore the beast king is constantly waiting for the right moment to declare war.
The wind that entered the throne room blew against the Beastking's face, making his thick mane sway.
Beastking stood up.
His wives who saw that stopped blabbering, they turned to Beastking with question marks on their faces.
Beastking paid no heed to his wife's expression, turned to the direction where the wind that was hitting his face was coming from and grinned.
He smirked for a long time and didn't move, the wives were confused by their husbands who suddenly froze.
Before long, the Beastking turned his head to the crowd of his wives.
"Tell all the chieftains, to sharpen their fangs and claws. The war they demand is coming soon!" Beastking gave the order in a bloodthirsty voice.
His wives reacted too late, their minds still processing what had happened.
Until one of them started screaming with joy and was followed by her other sister.
Not only other warbeast tribes, lionbeast tribes also want war. They were fed up with peace and wanted bloodshed.
They want to fight and be bathed in blood regardless of who the victim is.
....
[Unknown Territory, In the Middle of Meadow]
On a dark night, a meadow lit only by the moon and stars.
Seen eight thrones sitting in a circle.
The figure of a terrible creature sat on each the majestic throne.
"I've looked east until I find the sea frontier. But I haven't seen a single intelligent creature!" a voice echoed from a rotten mouth with the most foul smell.
Two twinkling eyes stared with tremendous power, Two huge horns adorned its fat head, which glowed faintly in the dark.
His thick skin covered and protected his fat body like steel armor.
The forked tail wriggled behind him, you bet this creature used it as a weapon.
Mammon is angry.
"In the southeast there are only stupid creatures with great regeneration, even so there aren't any traces mana in their bodies." a crashing sound boomed from the ivory mouth with an unimaginable force.
Its long smoky trunk leaked out with tremendous energy, two huge tusks curled from the mouth on its chubby head.
Although this creature does not have wide ears, three slanted eyes that form a pyramid make it unnecessary.
Behemoth is disappointed.
"I found a very deep trough, but there was no mana activity from the trough so I didn't check it." A hoarse and coarse voice rang out from the row of huge teeth sticking out from the side of his mouth.
Calm blazing eyes sat deep within the creature's angular bone skull, which gave the creature a very ominous-looking appearance.
Several central horns sat on top of his head, just above his large, curved ears.
Its long body curled up on a throne, its skin gleaming under the moonlight showing how tough it was.
Leviathan is complaining.
"Brother, aren't you too lazy?" A languid voice rang out from the scaly creature in the shape of a lizard.
The savage red eyes looked languid within the creature's tough and prickly skull, which made the creature look lazy.
Several small horns in the middle sat on top of his head, just above his broad, pointed ears.
Eight large wings grew starting from the shoulders and ending at the lower end of its back.
Abaddon is sleepy.
"Shut up! You don't think the sea is wide?" Leviathan opened his mouth full of fangs and glared angrily at Abaddon.
Abaddon saw an angry Leviathan close one half-opened eye. He felt more sleepy.
"Abaddon, how far have you been looking?" crackling sounds were heard from the rows of broken teeth and a broad tongue.
Two large eyes monitored their surroundings from their large sockets. Its body is covered in coarse fur and its shoulders are roughly the same width as its pelvis.
The large fan-like ears sit on each side of the average, angular head, which itself is covered in a fan-like net and has several large tentacles protruding from the sides.
His low-fat body sat upright on his throne. Two broad fleshy arms hung at his sides and ended in a broad hand with claw-like fingers, of which there were 12 in total.
Azazel is objecting.
"Brother, in the sky there are only clouds, I will be sleepy if I fly higher" Abaddon replied with his eyes still closed.
"Why is your big body not having any power at all?" Azazel quipped.
Abaddon fell silent and soon they heard his snoring.
"DON'T SLEEP! WE HAVE A MEETING!!!" Mamon who saw his brother sleeping shouted angrily.
"Mamon.. can you lower your voice? My ears can be deaf" Behemoth held both parts of its head where the ears should be.
"You don't have ears, Behemoth" Leviathan said in confusion.
"Shut up! I met beasts that have the same appearance as me. They have beautiful wide ears, mine will definitely grow like that in a few years, I'm currently too young" Behemoth that lived for more than two centuries replied confidently.
"WOI ABADDON DON'T SLEEP! YOU DON'T HEAR YOUR BROTHER, HUH!?" Mamon again shouted at Abaddon.
Abaddon's snoring grew louder.
Lucifer is frowning.
Four black bat-like wings look beautiful perched on his back. His slender but muscular body was clad in a black silk shirt.
A golden spear was held in his right hand and his left hand held a forehead which was covered with two curved horns.
A long tail swept behind him, covered in snake-like scales all over its slippery surface.
He looked at his brother who had remained silent since the beginning of the meeting.
Pointy protrusions decorated its round head, which was devoid of any expression. A wisp of shadow shot out of the creature's nostrils which were located inside its wide nose.
Head with bee-like eye sits on top of a large bulging body. The exoskeleton armor covered every inch of it, glistening in the bright moonlight.
Its six transparent wings covered its entire back. It looked weak and fragile but no one dared to try its sharpness.
Beelzebub is silent.
He wouldn't talk if it wasn't important.
Feeling Lucifer seeing him, Beelzebub turned his head.
Actually Beelzebub didn't need to turn his head to look at Lucifer but he moved his head to show respect to their eldest brother.
Beelzebub shook his head indicating that he didn't have any news.
Lucifer's frown deepened.
The number of mana demons was increasing every hour, if they didn't find another mana species soon then they might be in danger.
It is not foreign to them if mana demons prey on each other. They discovered this was due to Demon's awakening process.
So the mana demons will continue to prey on each other until all the mana that Demon releases unites and forms its body.
But the problem is that the eight people here are all derived from the mana Demon spewed out. So it can be ascertained that when the demons become stronger, they will prey on them.
Lucifer looked at their mother, Asmodeus, the only female demon in this gathering.
Her beautiful eyes looked interested, her sharp nose and thick lips could make any man would do anything to see her smile.
Her luscious chest, small waist, and large hips would make anyone turn their heads quickly just to catch a glimpse of it, even if it meant twisting their necks until they broke.
Its two broad black wings and curved horns did not detract from the smoothness of its white skin. Instead she will be considered like an angel who came down from heaven.
Asmodeus is smiling.
She saw her children fighting and playing, their behavior had not changed as it was 200 years ago.
Feeling Lucifer staring at her, Asmodeus turned her head and nodded while giving a reassuring smile.
Even though Lucifer knew that the smile was only to comfort her son, Lucifer felt his worries lessen.
Asmodeus was the one who had the most mixed feelings about Demon awakening.
As the wife and also the first being created by Demon, Asmodeus is the one who wants Demon awakening the most.
But her desire will sacrifice herself and the children they love.
Asmodeus knew that Demon himself never imagined this would happen. Demon just wants to be free from his boredom.
Asmodeus understood how much Demon suffered from that disease. Even Asmodeus' beautiful face and body were unable to calm the boredom of Demon.
The wind from the west blew past them.
Asmodeus' gentle smile froze,
Lucifer's frown disappeared,
Beelzebub buzzes,
Abaddon opened his eyes wide,
Mammon is silent
Azazel, Behemoth, and Leviathan stopped arguing.
They all looked towards the direction of the wind.
"Mother, that—" Lucifer's voice trembled with hope.
"Yes my son, that is our hope, maybe our only hope..." Asmodeus replied with a hopeful tone.
The eight demons stood from their respective thrones. They stared at Asmodeus awaiting orders from their beloved mother.
"Gather every troop! We're moving now!" Asmodeus lost her gentleness and ordered in a voice full of authority.
"YES, MOTHER!!" answered the children with enthusiasm.
Demon army marched.
