The Record of Orc Civilization-Chapter 59 Nezena
Like an angel touching the earth.
Her beautiful wings cannot bear the burden of the sins of the earth. Her chastity was snatched away until she had to lose her golden wings.
She had a crown-like fringe that adorned her head, with long, wavy champagne hair down her back. Everyone who sees it will only know that the beauty of spring can gather in a single hair.
Her silky white skin enveloped every piece of soft flesh underneath it, creating a suppleness that didn't lose its firmness.
Her wide forehead, hanging two eye sockets filled with large eyes with green irises in the center, stared at her recovering self with a look of admiration and disbelief.
Her cheeks look thin, but doesn't hide how soft it is. With the arrangement of white teeth that grew back neatly showing how beautiful her thin lips were.
Even though Moku was able to restore her body to its original state, he still couldn't replace the lost nutrients in her body. Even so, nothing of Nezena's beauty disappeared.
Her little nose and pointy ears complimented each other, shouting the beauty of God's creation and the blessings he bestowed on the wood elf race for their beauty.
No more broken faces and crushed bodies, everything returned to its original state like a time machine.
Her appearance become a proof that shows if the angel exists and she is standing on the earth.
Nezena's strength slowly recovered. With her mouth gaping in disbelief, she stuttered "h..h..how?"
Moku sat languidly and adjusted his breath. He needed a lot of energy just to recover Nezena's damaged body.
Nezena who didn't transform into an orc like Nevare explained that the energy required to perform the transformation exceeds the energy drained to restore a near-dead body back to normal. 𝙛𝘳𝒆𝒆𝒘e𝗯n𝗼𝘷𝚎𝚕.𝒄૦𝓶
There are two possible causes for this, the first is because the human body is weaker than the elf's body so it can be more easily affected by Moku's sperm.
Or secondly, because body transformation can only be carried out by the fetus growing in the mother's womb. The relationship between mother and child in her womb is not just a physical relationship but also emotional and metaphysical.
Further research is needed to confirm the truth, but for now Moku must educate Nezane to become a good preacher.
As Moku previously thought, man's discovery of religion is one of the most important discoveries of human civilization.
Many things are not known by humans and it sometimes creates endless confusion and panic for humans.
This confusion and panic will make their civilization stop and continue to revolve around the same thing. But this confusion can easily answer by believing in god.
Even so, religion can also be an obstacle to the progress of civilization.
This happens not because of problems in the believer but because of limitations in a religion that makes followers bound and can interpret it widely.
Because of that, after the second evolution Moku was unable to rest anymore, even though his body was in a state of rest but his brain continued to spin and work non-stop.
This allows Moku to formulate a doctrine that can boost and wash the minds of the orcs and all the monster races that will be under them.
Nezena who was able to see again, was dumbfounded looking at the figure of Moku in front of him "are you an night elf? no.. you are not.. what kind of creature are you?"
Just as the monsters were able to distinguish one race from another using their sense of smell, the elves were also able to tell which one was an elf or not.
"I was an orc" Moku replied.
"Was? What are you now? an angel.. or a prophet?" Nezane asked again.
Nezane didn't look down on Moku who used to be a monster.
Her heart was so pure that she saw no difference between a monster who was said to be a retard and a pest by mana species who said have superiority because of their proximity to mana.
"No! I'm still an orc but I'm more than that.. Angel? prophet? do you believe in god?" Moku asked.
"I believe" Nezane answered curtly.
Moku didn't ask her to explain further but made a new question "Which god? Tree of Life?"
Hoddurt explains on the way to the Trash Dump, that the wood elves worship a giant tree which is believed to have the power to know all things in this world.
It breathes by absorbing the world and excreting mana like a photosynthesized tree by absorbing CO2 and giving off oxygen.
"No. It's not him!" Nezen shook her head.
"Then?" Moku asked.
"I don't know. But the suffering that I've been going through must have a reason, my poor life must have a purpose, and the passage of time must have something to do with it." Nezena clasped her hands together and tilted her head to the sky, as if she was praying to something.
"Why not the Tree of Life?" Moku asked.
"I've never seen him, even if he exists then he's just another powerful being. Same with the night elf god Yggdrasil, or the mountain elf god Gama.
A true god don't eat, rest, or have a partner. He must be super unique and there is no equal to him.
He must be so big that all the suffering I've been through becomes so small in his eyes." Nezena replied.
Moku became stunned, unlike other wood elves who had been brainwashed from childhood that god was shaped like a tree, Nezena refused to worship a tree.
Unlike humans who have many stories where other strong humans claim to be gods, elves highly uphold their religion.
They believe that if mana comes from their gods. Then only those who are close to God and at one with him can move the mana around them.
These fanatical followers will be very difficult if invited to worship other gods or believe in other religions. So Moku thinks he will destroy Nezena's whole view of god before rebuilding it with a new god.
However, it seems that Moku doesn't need to do that, the concept of god in Nezena's mind almost matches the concept of god in Moku's mind.
"You are right Nezena, the only god worthy of worship is The One. Mana is not the only power that exists in this world, there are many other powers that have not been discovered by us.
Just like this power of mine" Moku channeled dragon prana into his hand, golden biofied energy enveloping the entire surface of his hand.
Nezena looked at the energy enveloping Moku's hand with wide eyes. It was the first time she had felt this energy. So if what Moku says is true, then the power of energy is not only limited to mana.
"What's this?" Nezena asked.
"This is the power of prana, I call it dragon prana. Prana is a power that is hidden in the body and can be used after breaking the seal in the body. This is the power possessed by monsters that you consider pests" Moku answered briefly.
"There are other energies besides mana? Which god are you referring to?" Nezena asked.
"I'm sure there's not only mana and prana in this world. The universe is so vast that we can't imagine it. Only he who created it knows what's out there.
He's The One, he's the first to exist since the world existed and he's the only one left when the world perish" Moku once again curtly replied.
"How do you worship him?" Nezena asked.
"We worship him by being strong. We worship him by going to war with the desire to kill the enemy. We worship him by going to war with the desire to be killed by the enemy.
All of that with only one goal, to be stronger than The One. He wants someone to be able to fight him even if it's impossible" Moku explained.
"Why would he want anyone to be able to fight him?" Nezena is confused.
"To show that it is impossible to fight him, To show that he is all-powerful!" Moku explained.
"Can he only be worshiped by monsters?" Nezena asked.
"Of course not, he is a real god.
He must be worshiped by all of nature, all beings must continue to strive to become stronger and forget their false pleasures.
So great is his desire for all beings that those of us who believe in him must immediately spread his teachings." Moku replied.
"How to spread this religion?" Nezena asked.
"Of course with war! The strong will only be born from war!
With war, everyone can focus on surviving and becoming stronger.
With war every weak person will be eliminated and the strong will be born.
With war every hypocrisy and lie will be exposed, every division and oppression will cease, there is only war where all wild desires will be channeled!" Moku smiled.
"Why? Why does The One want war??" Nezena is confused.
"Because every animate creature must die!
Life is just a circle of destiny!
Everything that is created must be destroyed!
This is not cruelty but a wheel of destiny, there will be no renewal if there is no destruction!
Everyone cannot escape their destiny, which is destruction!
All things must be destroyed to show that only The One is immortal!" Moku loudly replied.
Nezena didn't know what to say. Her mouth just gaped and she couldn't say anything. She couldn't refute Moku's words with logic, because what he said was the truth.
The only way to show God's power is to destroy everything he creates. By standing in the midst of the ruins of billions of civilizations, he will become the strongest one.
By providing opportunities for his creatures to become stronger, he can show that he is invincible. There is no proof if there is no challenge, everything must have an antithesis to reach a conclusion.
The One, the god that Moku talks about is a being who knows and believes that he is the real god. Everything starts with him and ends with him.
That's why he is The One, a first and last number.
"Do you want me to become his preacher? but why me?" Nezena already believes in The One. However, she did not understand why she was chosen to be a preacher and not another monster under Moku.
"Don't you understand? Why do you think you were fated to suffer this terrible? Why do you think you got here? Why do you think you can survived until now?" Moku smiled and stroked Nezena's cheek.
This question was a question that had always been on Nezena's mind during her torture. Almost all of her life she always questioned why I must suffer trough all of this.
But after knowing about The One that he told. She knows something 'If God is all-powerful then he is not all-good, but if he is all-good then he cannot be all-powerful'. At least from the point of view of his creation.
God must have his own moral system and he does not need to equate it with the moral system of his creatures. Like a lion who doesn't have to think about the feelings of the deer he preys on.
So the real answer to why she had to go through all this suffering was..
"S..so..so I can meet you?" Nezena replied stuttering.
"That's right! The One has destined you to suffer.The One has destined you to be tortured. The One has destined you to stay safe. The One has destined you to get to this place.
Only to meet me who will save you and make yourself a preacher who will spread this religion.
What is it? Are you mad? Are you disappointed?
Your anger and disappointment are useless because from the very beginning your destiny was determined, your destiny to live with me and forever be my servant!
Now rise Nezena! You have a tough task and people who have to listen to what you have to say!" Moku stretched out his hand.
With trembling hands Nezena took his hand.
Moku pulled Nezena's body and hugged her tightly.
He whispered "Welcome Home!"
