The Record of Orc Civilization-Chapter 195 Bitter Taste Part 2

Humans are weak creatures. Not only because their bodies are vulnerable but also because their emotions are easily fooled. Every human being cannot be separated from other humans because of they will be connected to each other even though they want to reject it.

This relationship will create a karmic chain. The chains of karma will shackle their feet, hands, and necks and bind them until they die. Whatever happens, even if someone has a heart-like stone even though they can never be free from the chains of karma.

This is because they are connected to each other in a symbiotic mutualism. Whether it's because of pride, lust, greed, love, recognition, or just as simple as wanting to live an easy life. Since they breathed their first breath in this world and were born from a woman's womb a chain of karma has been formed.

Because it is impossible for someone to live without other humans. The same thing happens not only to humans but also to every other intelligent being. Someone will be attached to the people around them regardless of whether they want it or not.

Moku is a simple person, he's not a hypocrite and he's not too scheming. If one understands who Moku really is then all the things he does will be understood easily. He just wanted to be strong no matter what.

He would sacrifice everything just to get stronger. His life in both this world and the previous world was just a cycle of how to become stronger. He doesn't care about fame, recognition, possessions, or love. For Moku all of that can be sacrificed if he can get stronger.

Why does he want to be strong? Even Moku himself had forgotten the reason. All his memories seemed to blur when he opened the door. The door he opened when he was just a child was locked in a house with two rotting corpses. His trembling hands opened the door and he forgot everything leaving only one thing behind.

I want to become stronger.

Even so, Moku is not an immortal or a god who can escape the chains of karma. Even though he lives like a beast, he still can't escape the chains of karma. He met his two teachers, he met Bulan, he met his friends, and he met his rival.

Without realizing it, Moku has been bound by the chains of karma. But in his previous life, the karmic chain didn't restrain him so he couldn't breathe. But unfortunately in his new life, he was bound by stronger karmic chains.

That chain of karma is love.

He never knew and never understood since when this woman entered his heart and won many places. Until Moku feels his priority to become stronger is being rivaled. Moku doesn't understand why this is happening and why he can feel this pain.

But all he knew was that when the Laser Ray fired by the platinum tier danger arachnid bee aimed at Nevare, his world went dark. His breath hitched and he felt his blood flow stop. His body which had already exceeded the limits of the astral realm body became weak and powerless.

What Moku knows is that if he loses Nevare then there will be a wound that will never be cured haunting his life. Everything he wanted would be useless and everything he felt would become bitter.

The dragon prana within his body reacted creating a burst of energy that coursed through his muscles. Like a nuclear fusion exploding, Moku's body slides down trying to catch the Laser Ray.

The Laser Ray that the platinum tier danger arachnid bee shoots have a very fast speed. For the current Moku, it's impossible for him to match the speed of the Laser Ray. In fact, he was only able to avoid it due to having an inner eye ability that was more like clairvoyance.

With Moku's inner eye, he can anticipate in which direction the Laser Ray will be fired. But to be able to catch up to the speed of the Laser Ray, arrive ahead of it, and fend off it was impossible for him to do at this time.

However, sometimes the chain of karma becomes not only a burden for sentient beings but also drives them to exceed their limits. Creating something more like a miracle.

Padakacarma Mantra is an ability that Moku uses to get rid of friction on the soles of his feet. With this spell, Moku can slide on the ground like he's on ice. Even so, he was unable to eliminate the frictional force all over his body.

Air and invisible tiny particles make the speed of an object's motion slow down over time. So that even if an object is given a boost with a tremendous explosion, the object will not have the same speed a split second after being given the thrust. As a result, the object will slow down over time, even though this slowdown will be very small, to chase the Laser Ray for a fraction of a second is tantamount to the life and death of Nevare.

Coupled with the existence of a gravitational force that pulls the speed of objects down, even if the object is given a thrust, it will still slow down over time. Even though Moku can't get rid of the force of gravity, with his body positioned in the air, gravity doesn't become a barrier instead it becomes a helper for his speed.

But what happens when all of the friction is removed, creating a vacuum?

Then the object will continue to go continuously without any force stopping it.

Moku's body is enveloped by a golden biofield. Dragon prana reacted to remove all the frictional forces on the surface of his body, making an inch around Moku's body a vacuum.

Coupled with the force of gravity that helps Moku manage to match the speed of the Laser Ray. Even so, he has not been able to surpass the speed of the Laser Ray. The thrust he exerted earlier was unable to allow his body to go beyond the speed of the Laser Ray. Moku needs a new boost to make himself faster.

For that in just a split second, Moku exploded the soles of his feet. Blood spurted out and bits of bone scattered. But Moku manages to get an additional boost and surpasses the Laser Ray's speed.

His hands reach forward. He knew if he grabbed Nevare right now then her body would be crushed by the collision at his current speed. Because of that Moku couldn't bring Nevare away from the Laser Ray but he had to hold it with his body.

Arachnid Bee Sting Karambit shines. The mana inside activated and made a layer of gold envelop the Arachnid Bee Sting Karambit. But this strength is still not enough to make it withstand the Laser Ray.

Moku channeled more of his dragon prana into the Arachnid Bee Sting Karambit. Makes the Arachnid Bee Sting Karambit crack due to excess mana. But Moku didn't care.

Arachnid Bee Sting Karambit and Laser Ray clashed creating splashes of light that burned Moku's skin. His fingernails shattered, his skin melted, his blood evaporated, and his flesh burned. But Moku remained firm against the Laser Ray.

The cracks on the Arachnid Bee Sting Karambit are getting bigger. The mana that covered it was running low but the Laser Ray was still unable to break through the defense of the Arachnid Bee Sting Karambit.

Moku went berserk, with all his might he swung the Arachnid Bee Sting Karambit. Slowly the direction of the laser beam changed.

"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH"

Moku's roar is heard. The little dragon prana that remained evaporated quickly until it hit a dangerous point. The golden biofield that enveloped his body was starting to thin out. Its speed began to slow down but at the same time, the Laser Ray's direction of travel began to change.

Until finally Moku managed to ward off the Laser Ray.

*BAAAAAMMMM!!!! free𝒘ℯ𝗯𝙣𝗼ν𝑒𝗹.𝒄o𝒎

Laser Ray turned towards a mountain not far from there. This mountain survived the explosion but was half burned to the ground. When the Laser Ray hit the mountain, it penetrated the mountain and exploded.

*BOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!!!!

The shock was felt until it reached Bitter Maja, although it wasn't as big as the previous explosion it still made the hairs on the monsters' skins stand up. They know that the battle is not over and the situation is still in danger.

"MOKU!!"

Nevare was surprised to see Moku standing in front of her. Like a high wall, Moku's back gave her a sense of security and comfort. But when she looked at Moku's hand, her eyes widened.

In the previous battle, Moku had already lost an arm. When brushing off the Laser Beam, his remaining hand melted and the Arachnid Bee Sting Karambit shattered into pieces. Currently, with his existing supply of dragon prana, there was no way he would be able to regenerate his arm back quickly.

Even if he could, he probably wouldn't. In front of him there are still 20 arachnid bees, plus the platinum tier danger arachnid bees, there's no way the current monsters can fight them without Moku's help.

Boku and Goku, who previously managed to get out of the pile of dirt, limped closer. The injuries on their bodies were quite severe and the dragon prana was trying to quickly regenerate them. Compared to Moku, they are still capable of fighting.

The valkyries also came out one by one from the ground that covered them. Nerphyl's also came out, she shook off the dust in her white tiger body. Even so, it can be seen that her body is covered in terrible burns.

The orcs were not visible, they were the closest to the explosion site so it was likely that the damage they received was far more severe. But there was no opportunity to find and dig them out of the pile of dirt.

Nevare also stood up, she tried to get up even though she was limping. She knew that this battle was still not over.
