The Record of Orc Civilization-Chapter 173 To Hide Your Power
Moku sat in the tent that had been specially prepared for him. He placed Nerphyl's cocoon in front of him and kept it at bay with the energy biofield. Using his inner eye, Moku found out that his wife had started trying to control the Mutated Tiger's body. That's why the blue cocoon is getting bigger every minute.
Moku closed his eyes, the meeting that just happened made Moku have to rethink a lot of things. His decision to not become the main leader of this war was right. Even though the enemies they will face are very strong, Mige can find a way out of despair.
Moku didn't tell the monsters that there was a mithril tier danger mutated animal from the side of the Quadruple Arachnids who was most likely the queen of the colony. However, he explained that there is a mutated animal which is the queen of the Quadruple Arachnids Colony who has strength equal to or more than the platinum tier danger Arachnid Bee.
Moku had tried to approach the Quadruple Arachnids Queen but he was immediately blocked by hundreds of Arachnid Bees and they didn't stop chasing him away from their queen.
Hearing that, Mige concluded that the queen was the most protected being of the Quadruple Arachnids Colony, so there was a high possibility that the queen herself didn't have great fighting abilities. She only relied on the Quadruple Arachnids as her strength.
After that Mige asked for one week to come up with a plan. Then they also started deploying Military Espionage's sylphs to scout the movements of the Quadruple Arachnids Colony. And the meeting was then disbanded, and the carcass of the golden tier danger Arachnid Bee was brought by Lesnen and Goburu.
Lesnen wanted to research it further and add to his knowledge about mutated animals. Meanwhile, Goburu wants to make a new weapon for Boku and Goku, with the raw materials of mana organs, Boku and Goku can use the Pringgadani Mantra when fighting.
Moku himself asked Goburu to make him a new Karambit from the golden tier danger Arachnid Bee's sting. He had not fought in a long time using a weapon and the last karambit had been destroyed while demonstrating the Pringgadani Mantra on the sylphs. fr𝚎e𝙬𝚎𝚋𝚗૦ν𝚎𝒍.c૦m
One more secret that Moku keeps is the presence of an army of 30,000 mages who destroyed the original nest of the Quadruple Arachnids Colony, causing the queen and her troops to flee immediately. Moku didn't want to add to the monsters' panic with this news. But Moku can't keep it a secret forever, the human army will definitely approach the spring part and maybe they will also find Bitter Maja.
The current Wilwatikta Kingdom couldn't possibly stand against an army of 30000 mages. Moku himself has a hunch that 30000 mage is not the limit of humans' capability. Maybe behind them, there will be more other mages who can be summoned to fight instantly.
Moku himself did not know how strong the Military Academy told by Nevare, Claire, and Widya was. However, he knew the Wilwatikta Kingdom would stand no chance of winning against the humans. Therefore the thing they have to do now is to lay low.
For that Moku must be able to hide his current asura form and return to his orc form. He remembered how Deak's expression had been when he discovered that monsters could evolve. At that time Deak was not only surprised but also threatened, for him the existence of Moku was a threat to the hegemony of mana species.
Moku himself would also think the same as Deak if he was in his position. Maybe in the former world, it can be exemplified as an ape that can speak human language. This will make all humans become threatened and will try hard to kill or capture the monkey.
The only way now is to get away from the mana species' civilization and find a place beyond their reach. However, the location of the Bog forest is flanked by two mana species, humans on the right and elves on the left. Behind them was a tall wall of Wolf Slope Mountain.
Moku believes that elves will not accept monsters and neither will humans who have had a bad history with orc tribes before. But he also couldn't bring his people to climb Wolf Slope Mountain either. Not only did they have to deal with the extreme cold they also had no idea how many dangerous mutated animals lived up there.
Hence the only thing he could do right now was to hide the whereabouts of the asuras. Without asuras, the Wilwatikta Kingdom would only look like a swarm of flies for mana species. They will not feel threatened and will only feel annoyed.
Of course, being annoyed could be their reason for returning to pest control but that would not be a priority for them at this time. Like humans in their previous world, mana species will prioritize how to kill other mana species compared to exterminating a group of pests.
Moku's consciousness went deeper into his body. He wanted to find a way to hide the asura form and make himself look like an ordinary orc. Illusion will not be a solution because Moku knows there will be many spells that can overcome illusions.
While he was looking for a way to hide his asura form, Moku was also thinking about how to deal with his sleeplessness due to losing the sin of sloth. While it still didn't really bother him at the moment, Moku knew that one day it would disturb his sanity.
Moku remembered Garuda and Mak Lampir who lived in the Mind Realm. They also don't have all seven sins but they don't seem to have any problems with sanity. Of course, Mak Lampir couldn't be said to be normal because she innocently tortured hundreds of humans to become wraiths but that was caused by her hatred of men when she was still alive in the Astral Realm.
Mak Lampir whom he met in the Mind Realm looked more normal than the legend from his childhood. Aside from her hideous appearance, Mak Lampir is someone who can negotiate well and even helped Moku to find the main ingredient of the Eye of God potion.
As for Garuda, Moku believes that he has outlived this world. Perhaps since the first intelligent beings were created in this world. Even though his legend is heard in the Astral Realm, it is very likely that Garuda spent a lot of his time in the Mind Realm.
He also once said that the Mind Realm is himself and he is the Mind Realm. So before he was famous in the Astral Realm, Garuda had lived for a long time in the Mind Realm. Without sin in the Mind Realm, Garuda himself would not be able to sleep. But why was his sanity not disturbed at all? 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚
Was it because the two of them were created in the Mind Realm?
No...
At least Moku knows that Mak Lampir was once a human and was a princess from the Champa Kingdom. So previously as a human Mak Lampir still had all seven complete sins.
The reason why Mak Lampir wasn't bothered when she lost all seven sins was because she was in... Mind Realm.
A realm where there is no light, color, and sin. A place that has no meaning but its existence is a collection of meanings.
Moku realized that he had never fully understood the Mind Realm. If only he was a Mind Realm creature then maybe he could be free from the seven sins. Wait...
Even though he wasn't a Mind Realm creature, wasn't his current body capable of adapting to Mind Realm?
Moksha is the process of an Astral being becoming a Spiritual being. It was because the gates of the Spiritual Door had been closed that the discoverers of Moksha opened a detour through the Mind Realm. For that, they have to make their bodies adapt to the Mind Realm. So that with each evolution a Moksha will be increasingly able to approach the form of a complete Mind Realm being.
Just like now where Moku has reached the limit point of his Astral Realm body. This was the most perfect body for an orc, no further improvement would occur even if he trained hard every second. In the next evolution, Moku will not change physically but will change mentally!
Only then would he truly become a Mind Realm being.
At this time, Moku was like a newborn baby, his Mind-body was still very weak and couldn't do anything. But gradually he will grow stronger so that he can easily adapt to the Mind Realm. Until one-day Moku will no longer be confined by his seven sins, whether or not there are 7 sins in his body will not be a problem. Like Mak Lampir and Garuda.
For both of them, sin is not a necessity but just like a delicious tempting candy. They can have it but without it won't be a problem for them.
This too could be the answer to the problem of hiding the asura form. For Mind Realm beings, their form is what those who see think it is. It doesn't matter what their basic form is but it will mean nothing in the Mind Realm.
An example is Garuda, legends of giant birds already exist in the Astral Realm in various forms; Kun Peng, Phoenix, Anqa, Roc, and even Garuda himself is a legend that comes from Moku's hometown. Meanwhile, the reason why Mak Lampir looked the same even though she was seen by different people was because she was being hit by a curse that could even penetrate the laws of the Mind Realm.
Then all Moku needs to do to solve all these problems is to evolve one more time.
And it seems that the Quadruple Arachnids Colony that was knocking on their door was a gift for him.
Moku smiled and couldn't wait for Quadruple Arachnids Colony to come soon.
