Chapter 65 Queen Of Sylph
Chapter 65 Queen Of Sylph
Moku's grip tightened, sandwiching Iathra's body between his fingers and hard palms.
Iathra's breath hitched and caught in her lungs, making it hard for her to breathe. Her face turned red and then turned pale.
In the midst of her slowly fading consciousness a voice came out from the depths of Iathra's heart filled with pride and defiance, "NO!!!"
Moku loosened his grip. Iathra was able to breathe again, with dim eyes she replied angrily "Who are you to call our queen a coward?!!
What right do you have to judge us?!
What right do you have to judge how we survive?!
What do you know about the queen's sacrifice?!
YOU ARE JUST AN ORC!!!"
Iathra's breathing returned to regularity, her eyes fixed on Moku fearlessly. Fire smoldered behind her dark black eyes.
Burning anger in her heart due to Moku's humiliation of someone she held in high esteem in her heart.
Iathra doesn't care if she is killed by Moku, she will die with pride after spitting on Moku's arrogant face.
"What the fuck do you know about our suffering?
You have a big and strong body.
You are able to protect yourself.
You guys are even stronger than ordinary humans.
What the fuck do you know about our suffering?
We are just weak creatures with bodies smaller than leaves that fall to the ground.
We couldn't protect ourselves and would hide behind a rock when the slightest wind blew.
Without the power to possess, a single mouse could even kill all of us with ease.
What the fuck do you know about our suffering?"
Iathra screamed with all her might, her shrill voice sounded like someone being tortured and screaming for help.
However, there was only disdain from the eyes of the people around her and pretending not to hear her pleading.
When she tries to escape the constant torture she is accused of being a coward from people who only see her cowardice.
Her overflowing anger extinguished the fire of anger in Moku's heart. He let go of Iathra and let it lie on his palm.
Iathra stood while continuing to stare at Moku in defiance. She wouldn't run away, it would be useless. She wouldn't be able to escape from someone capable of killing a mage with a single strike.
Iathra only hoped that Moku would give her time to defend her queen who had just been insulted by another monster race. She would tell them of how great the Queen of Sylph was.
"You don't know how the queen cries every time she sees another sylph being treated like a pet.
You don't know how many times the queen's lips bleed from biting her lip after she saw Sylph forced to dance and sing until their voice was hoarse.
WHY DO YOU THINK SYLPH IS LAZY AND NAUGHTY?
All because of our sadness and frustration towards this small and weak body!
All because of our anger at being born as this useless little thumb-sized monster!
They become lazy because they feel that trying in life is useless!
They become naughty because they want to escape for a second from this sense of inferiority.
You have no right to insult and call our queen a coward!
Oh.. mighty orc, where were you when the humans kidnapped us!
Oh.. Powerful orcs, where were you when the humans made us their toy!
You guys hide and bury your shitty heads in the ground!
So don't insult our queen as a coward.
We're just trying to survive under the grip of humans far stronger than you!" Iathra spat on Moku's palm and folded her hands together.
Her bulging chest and eyes filled with pride indicated that she had finished speaking. She was just waiting for the judgment of the hypocritical orc which she was standing in the palm of his hand.
Moku's face didn't change in the slightest, even so the fire of anger had been extinguished from his eyes. He stared at Iathra for a moment and said "Let me meet with your queen!"
"Tch!! Just kill me" Iathra spat on Moku's palm again.
Moku's face did not change and in the same tone he repeated his command "Meet me with your queen and I will show you the freedom!"
"Freedom? You want to free us from the clutches of humans? HAHAHAHAHA How arrogant you are HAHAHAHA!!
You think you can beat all mages after defeating trashs like them?
You are really stupid if you think like that. They were just the lowest class of all existing mages! They weren't even admitted to the military academy! The academy where all the strongest humans gather.
The strong humans there will kill you with just a flick of their hand. You better not be arrogant and go back into hiding." Iathra sneered at Moku.
Her tongue was sticking out and her hands were over her ears, her cute face made the movements look even cuter if the words that came out of his mouth didn't have the sharpness that could tear iron apart.
But Moku's face remained unchanged, he didn't seem to hear the mockery Iathra was saying. With the same tone as before, Moku said casually,
"I'm not the one who freed you! But you are the one who will free yourselves! You will have the power to make humans into your pets!"
Iathra stopped sticking out her tongue, she looked at Moku with wide eyes "You're lying! Do you think I'm stupid! You just want to meet the queen and then kill her right!" Iathra felt she was considered like a fool by Moku.
Moku changed his mind, not because he didn't think the sylph was dangerous for the kingdom of the monster he was about to build.
He changed his mind because he misunderstood who the real enemy of Sylph was. At first Moku thought Sylphs were cowards because they were afraid of humans, but after hearing Iathra's anger Moku found out that Sylphs had never been afraid of humans.
Instead they use humans to fight their real enemies. Their enemy was the same enemy the orc race faced.
Destiny and the world.
Just as orcs are cursed to have no women in their race, Sylphs are cursed to be small and weak creatures.
Just as orcs are forced to fight for the survival of their race, Sylphs are forced to become pets for the survival of their race.
They are two cursed races forced to fight against the world by a cruel destiny. And they chose the same path, they fought back.
Therefore for one warrior to another true warrior there is only respect they can give each other. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Moku said in a softer tone "Iathra I will not kill your queen, I will not give humiliation to a true warrior. We orcs have great respect for your struggle against the world.
Iathra look at me! How am I different from the other orcs?
Is it because I have long hair?
Is it because my nose is sharper?
Is it because my tusk is smaller?
Is not! I'm different from other orcs because I'm stronger, faster, and tougher!
Iathra, I am the first orc who find the key.
The key of the entire monster species to escape the suppression of the mana species.
The key from us to be able to compete with them. Those who are blessed!
It is time that we blow the trumpet of war and begin the battle between the cursed and the blessed.
Iathra with this key, we will rise and start a new civilization never seen in the history of monsters.
Iathra, the key is the ability to evolve!" Moku's red eyes flared again, but not with anger but pride, pride in himself, his race, and his species.
"Moku is right Iathra, know that we, the goblin race have joined the orcs. Because we believe that Moku holds the key and will lead us to the gates of the glory of the monster race!" Tam also added with clenched fists impatiently to struggle and open the gate.
"Iathra know that the lord of the universe has sent Moku to guide us all towards the true path. Believe that Moku is the path that The One prepared for you in sylph.
Believe that Moku will lead you to be free from the suffering you have experienced so far, just as Moku freed me from the suffering and confusion that I experienced" Nezena solemnly also said.
"Iathra, I know this brother of mine goes crazy at sometimes, but he's someone you can trust! He won't change his words and always speaks without hypocrisy.
If he says he wants to save sylph then he really will try to save sylph!" Swa excitedly added.
Laya and Ez also nodded.
Although everyone in the tribe believes that Moku is crazy, only Laya thinks that his brother is very smart and not crazy.
Even though he went to prison and was punished by other goblins, Ez still trusted Moku because he didn't turn back his word when he said he just wanted to discuss with the goblin tribe.
Iathra saw everyone staring at her with a look to believe in Moku. Iathra's view of Moku began to slowly change. She then closed her eyes as if in thought.
Less than five minutes later, Iathra nodded.
"Okay! I'll take you to meet the queen. But I reiterate once again, don't mess around, or I will fuck you shitty head!" Iathra threatened with her right hand on her waist and her left hand pointed at Moku.
She looked so cute but then again, her words were so vulgar.
They rushed to where Iathra pointed, until they arrived in front of a cave mouth.
Iathra flew with both wings, before warning Moku for who knows how many times "Moku remember don't mess around! I trust you to meet our queen.
I know that our powers won't work on you, but the same won't apply to your other friends. I promise if you do anything to harm the queen then we will kill your friends!"
Moku just nodded because he was tired of answering the same threats.
They entered the cave and found the cave was already filled with countless wild beasts. There are tigers, wolfs, rhinos, and other dangerous animals.
However, all the existing animals emit a sylph smell from their bodies. Shows the fact that all these animals are animals possessed by sylph.
Their alert and ready to attack attitude showed that they had known the arrival of Moku and his group.
Moku smiled and stepped forward, splitting the sea of beasts in front of him in two. At the end of the sea of beasts there is a small throne perched on the head of a big white tiger.
On the throne sat a queen with a wooden staff in her hand.
She said "Welcome KuMoku!"
