Chapter 49 So Cute
Ez thought why the orcs suddenly changed, he remembered that the chief of this tribe was no longer Goku but Moku.
He saw Moku who was still busy with Anna sleeping on his lap.
'Is this perverted orc causing the other orcs to change??' he asked himself.
Ez shook his head and removed the question from his mind. He had more important issues to solve.
Ez had to immediately change the minds of the other orcs by doing something, like insulting them and calling them cowards for not daring to attack the goblins head-on or so on.
However, before Ez could say anything, a large orc stepped forward and knelt down "KuMoku! I want to be appointed to capture the goblin tribal officials!" Vagkar comes forward and says confidently.
Ez was getting paler, he had to do something fast, but once again Ez couldn't open his mouth before another tall orc stepped forward and knelt down.
"KuMoku! This kind of task is very suitable for us who are used to moving alone, the SF team is ready to be assigned to capture the goblin tribal officials!" Yagnar patted his chest with burning eyes.
Once again Ez could only suppress his voice as a slender orc stepped forward and knelt down.
"KuMoku! forget the other teams, they can only talk. We are the best runners in this tribe, with our speed we can quickly catch those goblin top brass" Viggu smirked, proud of his team.
Ez's hopes of turning things around were dashed when another orc with tiptoe-steps stepped forward and knelt down.
"Moku, of course we're brothers who are going! I'm sure you don't want to miss breaking those goblins' skinny necks! hehe" Swa chuckled confirming that Moku would prefer him and Laya to go together.
Swa knew that Moku also wanted to go scouting and kidnap some high-ranking goblins, but as the chief of the tribe, Moku couldn't possibly go alone or go with one of the teams.
Because if he only chooses one team, then Moku will be considered favoritism and favor one team over the others.
However, if Moku went with his two blood brothers then the orcs couldn't protest.
Swa was proud of his thoughts and glanced at Laya with a look asking for praise.
Laya just glared wide-eyed while his mouth mumbled 'WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING!!!' silently.
Swa didn't hear what Laya said, he just thought if Laya was shy to praise him, "hehe both my brothers are both shy to praise" he mumbled to himself.
All eyes then turned to Moku, waiting for Moku's decision to appoint who would be in charge of kidnapping the goblin officials. They didn't feel there was a better way than Boku's opinion.
But again Moku did not provide a response or comment. He was busy staring at Anna's sleeping face and stroking her hair. Moku touched Anna's small nose and squeezed it gently.
Anna who felt her sleep was disturbed reflexively waved her hands and her nose twitched. "Hehehe so cute" whispered Moku. Even though his voice was small, it could still be heard in this silent tent.
The orcs again added to their records. They showed each other their notes and corrected them.
There were murmurs such as "..you're wrong.." "..the index finger should be bent like this.." "..the head caress is from top to bottom not from bottom to top .." and so on.
Even Boku, who always had a straight face, seemed to focus on taking notes on his parchment paper. Claire frowned as she saw Boku was so focused on studying Moku's movements.
'I hope he doesn't think about practicing it in the future' Claire worried in her heart.
Ez and the four girls cursed again in their hearts 'can you focus on here, are you the chief or not, stop flirting out!!!'
Feeling all the orcs waiting for him to speak, Moku reluctantly looked away from Anna's sleeping face.
Moku straightened his seat and started to speak,
"Thank you for your advice my three heads of division. Before I say my decision, I want to thank Ez, who has come here to give our tribe this very important information" Moku looked at Ez.
The orcs were reminded of the little goblin who had come to bring them this news. The orcs nodded to Ez showing their gratitude.
Ez who had been in a state of panic earlier, didn't know how to respond, he could only stiffly nod back.
"Even though you didn't mean to help our tribe.. you could say you wanted to trap our tribe.. but I'm still grateful that you came here and told us about the goblin tribe that was about to attack.
Thanks my old friend" Moku smirked.
Ez's face immediately paled, he didn't expect Moku to know his plan all along.
All the orcs tilted their heads in confusion, while Mige, Goku, and Boku responded with "hm?!", "ah!", and "I know it!".
Seeing the gazes of the three orcs turn sinister, Ez immediately stepped forward and knelt in front of Moku. "I'm very sorry KuMoku, I never intend to deceive the orcs.
The news I bring is what really happened. The goblin tribe will actually attack the orc tribe in less than 5 days.
If KuMoku feels I tricked the orcs, I want to apologize for this misunderstand—" Ez swallowed his words back after seeing Moku raise his hand.
"Ez, I don't blame you and I'm not mad at you. If I were in your position I would probably do the same. I commend your wisdom.
Orcs are physically much stronger than Goblins, even though we are few in number but with our regeneration abilities and body strength, orcs can kill hundreds of goblins in open war.
So it was the right decision to lure the orcs to attack first. With the traps and labyrinths in your cave, the goblins can kill the orcs one by one" said Moku calmly.
Suddenly all the orcs realized what was really going on. 𝐟𝙧ℯ𝑒𝒘𝐞𝒃𝗻𝒐ѵ𝘦𝑙.com
If they were provoked by the news that Ez brought and attacked the goblin cave then they would most likely really be extinct or if there were survivors, the numbers would not allow the orcs to be able to take revenge or survive in the cruel Bog forest.
"I also want to apologize for seeing you as a coward Ez. I never thought that you would be this brave. You know whatever the orcs decide, we will still kill you, but you still come to this place" Moku looked at Ez in admiration.
"Well.." Ez couldn't help but smile bitterly. He sighed and gave in. His plan had failed, he was just biding his time for the orcs to kill him.
Even if he ran away, his short legs wouldn't be able to carry him away from the orcs' pursuit.
Moku didn't look at Ez anymore and looked at Goku "Goku, your plan sounds simple but I know that you really want to test the fighting skills of the orcs. I also want to know how strong orcs are right now.
Deer, Wildebeest, Bison, and other animal colonies in Glittering Meadow are not opponents to measure your abilities. Even so I don't think the goblin tribe is a worthy opponent either.
They can only rely on numbers, metal weapons, and labyrinths against you.
Even if you win it's not something to be proud of and if you lose it doesn't measure your fighting ability as an individual or a group." Moku explained.
The orcs muttered and nodded.
"Mige, I feel proud of your warrior attitude and thank you for remembering what I said about the principle of silat where 'Enemies are not sought, if meet is inevitable'.
But you misunderstood the word 'enemies' in that principle. The enemy is not only those who attack in plain sight but also those who intend to attack you and make preparations to attack.
Remember where there's a smoke, there's a fire.
The goblin tribe getting ready to battle is a smoke and we have to extinguish it before it becomes a big fire." Moku forgot the true meaning of the saying, but he said it anyway because it would look cooler.
The orcs returned with "oohh!!", "aahhh!", "true, true, true".
"Boku, I'm very gratefull for your wisdom, you didn't disappoint us as the wisest orc. Even so, you forgot something.
Not all enemies have to be enemies that we destroy until nothing remains.
Just like a lion who hunts in the savanna, he will not eat all the animals that are there, he will still leave a few animals so they can breed.
That way he would have an inexhaustible supply of food.
So before deciding to fight, we must first think about whether we really have to kill this enemy until there is nothing left or there are other uses for them that can benefit the orcs." Moku smirked.
"You are more wise than me" Boku replied.
"That's why I decided to win this battle by..." Moku smiled.
Ez, the girls, and the orcs opened their ears wide waiting to hear Moku's plan to win this war.
They were like waiting for the prize curtain to be opened with the sound of drums rumbling as the background music.
Then Moku opened his mouth "without fighting!!!".
"HUH!?" Ez's mouth was wide open.
"huh?" the girls were afraid of mishearing after translating Moku's monster language.
"Huh?" the orcs remembered that they once thought of Moku as a crazy orc.
Plakk! Laya and Swa patted their foreheads at the same time.
'hehehe I will show them if Datuak Sri Maharajo doesn't just teach me how to dance' said Moku in his heart not paying attention to the reactions of the people around him.
He looked down and saw Anna's who was sleeping soundly, stroked her chubby cheeks, and whispered "so cute!!"
And once again everyone in the silent tent heard it clearly. Ez, the girls, even the orcs cursed in their hearts 'STOP FLIRTING ALREADY!!'.
