Chapter 258: Chapter 128

Not long after that, Sui Xiong and Lefon arrived at the palace of the Gods of Orcs.

The Gods of Orcs did not like luxury. Their palace did not have any special items or splendorous decorations either. It was just a big palace with houses connected together. Some houses had huge tables and chairs, and so much cookware they looked like restaurants. Some houses were so filled with weapons, armor, and treasures they looked like warehouses. One house especially huge. There was a big round table in it, and many chairs surrounding it, messy and without order.

“Our chamber of affairs is simple, please pay no mind.” Lefon simply found a chair and sat down. He greeted Sui Xiong. “Don’t just stand there, have a seat.”

Sui Xiong was stunned for a while and asked, “Don’t these seats have corresponding owners?”

“Just find a seat and sit down,” Lefon smiled and said. “How troublesome is that, to have to remember your chair when you have to sit!”

Sui Xiong could not help but laugh. He simply pulled up a chair and sat opposite of Lefon.

“I have many questions for you,” He said.

“I know,” Lefon replied. “But let’s just discuss the reason for your current trip. Could it be that you wanted me to promote a God’s order to end the expedition to the South in the main plane?”

Sui Xiong nodded and said seriously, “War benefits no one. I cannot see the necessity of it.”

“But in fact, there is no harm in it, either,” Lefon said without a care. “Regardless of whether they’re Orcs or humans, their reproduction skills are quite strong. Even if a large batch is killed, they will give birth to many more after a few decades or centuries. And if I remember correctly, there is no massacre happening at this time.”

Sui Xiong sighed and tied to persuade him. “Regarding Orcs and humans, isn’t it good that they each live on their own land? I have strolled around the Orc Empire before. The land there is not barren. In theory, there should be enough land to feed the population.”

“It is not a matter of food,” Lefon said. “At least, it is not just about food. The Orcs will always pursue war when the population increases. They want to fight for the survival of the fittest through war, to choose stronger fighters, to increase the overall quality of the entire race. This is an instinct that had been ingrained in their souls. It is their purpose since creation.”

He paused for a while before saying, “Oscar, do you know the origin of the Orcs?”

“As far as I know, the first Orcs were created by an ancient God named ‘ancestor,’” Sui Xiong replied. “Is that right?”

“That’s right, but it’s not comprehensive,” Lefon said. “A long, long time ago, there were all types of strong monsters on earth. They were always killing each other, and always evolving. There was not one stable race in existence. In this situation, the Goddess of Life created the fairy race; known today as the advanced fairies. This race, which had a fixed culture, developed very quickly. They effectively became Her assistants. The other ancient Gods saw this and used the fairy race as a model. They created all the different races we have today. Among them, the Mother of Sea created humans and the Ancestor God created us, the Orcs.

“The ancient Gods were not friendly towards each other. On the contrary, they always warred. The Mother of Sea and Ancestor God were arch-enemies. The Mother of Sea had a lot of friends, but the Ancestor God was very strong. Both of them were hard to beat. After that, the Mother of Sea created humans and planned to train them to become a race of strong warriors, to oppose the Ancestor God’s forces. After receiving the news, the Ancestor God created Orcs in order to fight humans,” Lefon said. “That is why, regardless of whether we’re humans or Orcs, it is our natural calling to see each other as enemies and fight. Our races were born to do so.”

“Mankind should not live for others,” Sui Xiong said. “Just because the Gods created us with a purpose in mind does not condemn humans and Orcs to live in a certain way. Just as children do not necessarily need to follow their parents’ wishes on how they live.”

“Of course you could say that between children and parents. But could you say that between tools and masters?” Lefon smiled and said. “Anyway, later on, there was an accident. The Ancestor God accidentally glimpsed the wonderful secret of ‘the Great Divine Powers’ and wanted to rush into that realm. But in the end, he failed and died. So the Mother of Sea lost her opponent. She sank into a depression very quickly, and couldn’t be bothered to care about humans anymore. As a result, after a long time, humans evolved until they overtook Her abilities and unexpectedly killed Her. This happened not too long ago, as I’m sure you know.”

Sui Xiong nodded. “Although I do not agree with God of Light’s way, as you can see the tool does not necessarily have to follow the master’s requested way of life.”

“That is true. Thus, I am making a change,” Lefon said. “I think I should do it from two directions: changing the Orcs’ nature from a ‘warrior race,’ and changing the Orcs’ hostile attitudes towards humans. The former has a lot of implications. I can only run experiments here in the Holy Kingdom for now. As for the latter, I have already let my voter try to practice it. It seems it’s pretty effective.”

“Effective?”

“Yes. Just look at the expedition to the South this time. After the Orcs took over a human city there was no massacre,” Lefon said. “That is an improvement.”

“But the war itself is not necessary!” Sui Xiong emphasized. “In my territory, there are also Orcs, half-Orcs and humans. Everyone gets along! There is no hostility at all!”

“That is because the Orcs willing to leave the grasslands to find a living elsewhere were already open-minded. They were not restricted by tradition.” Lefon smiled as he drew a line in the air with his hand. Many scenes appeared in front of them, divided into two halves. The first showed the Orcs who chose to go outside to find a living. Although they did not get along with humans very well, they could mostly control their natures and be law-abiding. Still, there was a high percentage who became bandits. On the other side were the Orcs who stayed in tribes on the grasslands. They lived their nomadic lives day after day. They passed on their ancestors’ bravery by oral history, telling every generation about it. The greatest ideal in their lives was to become strongmen and make their marks and careers in the expedition to the South.

“I think there is probably no race in this world weirder than us Orcs. You cannot find any common similarity, besides in appearance, between the Orcs who left the tribes and the Orcs who stayed,” Lefon said. “My guess is that maybe Orcs are a race that easily changed in nature. Perhaps we only need a few generations before changing the long-standing traditions.”

“Then why can’t we change now?” Sui Xiong asked.

“It is too painful for Orcs to do in one step,” Lefon opened his hands and said straightforwardly. “It is better to solve the problem through war. This is a way that Orcs can accept.

“Speaking of which, I still have to thank you,” He smiled again and said. “When you were in the demarcation zone between nomads and farms, you used your own way to solve the long-standing problems. It looked very stupid and perverted at first glance, but in reality, the effects were pretty good. My voter applied the same idea between Orcs and humans, I think the effects should be not bad.”

Sui Xiong frowned as his tentacle drew a line and the scene in the Orc captive camp appeared. “This situation cannot be considered ‘not bad’!”

Lefon looked at it, and asked with a little doubt, “Isn’t it pretty good? I can see those men and rabbits are having quite some fun.”

“Your voter’s way is stripping away human reproductive rights and forcing them to produce hybrids,” Sui Xiong said, sighing deeply. “This is not resolving conflict, it’s making humans extinct!”

“I cannot agree with this; there was no massacre.”

“It’s only a matter of short or long-term massacre.” Sui Xiong’s voice slowly turned cold. “This separates human men and women of reproductive age and only lets the men and rabbit race convene to give birth of half-Orcs. Once this generation of humans dies of old age, isn’t that extinction?”

Lefon touched his chin and thought deeply.

After a while, He nodded his head slightly. “How could I not think of that?! Turning humans into half-Orcs would solve all our problems!” He said.

“Hey! That thought in itself is problematic!” Sui Xiong yelled.

“There is no problem, no problem at all!” Lefon smiled and was about to say something, but He suddenly frowned and looked coldly towards the sky.

“I take that back,” He said. “The problem is coming now.”
