Three Day Later.
After they got what was needed to stop the deterioration of Samiel's armor, Rao's Vengence, both Yvraine and Samiel agreed it would be most appropriate for them to ascend to the 2nd Floor as soon as possible so that they won't be wasting time on the 1st Floor.
It was apparent that more and more Legendaries came to the 1st Floor, especially those of more destructive character, and it was only a matter of time before the fighting would spread from the Midnight World to the 1st Floor of the Tower.
If more battle maniacs such as Cardinal Zaldidraax from the Hall of Kadath came, it would happen even sooner than anticipated. Samiel heard about Zaldidraax from Yvraiune later on and knew that he was a madman who would fight anywhere and anyone, causing destruction everywhere he walked.
Apparently, even by the standards of the Red Dragon, he was destructive and crazy. He was very famous for that, and if someone was considered destructive and crazy even among the Red Dragons, then it must be something to behold.
Seeing how the situation on the 1st Floor was worsening day by day, with more and more powerhouses coming to the Midnight World and some wreaking havoc even in the Core Area of the 1st Floor, it was dangerous for them to stay here any longer than necessary.
The entire Midnight World has been turned into an enormous battlefield where Orks rampaged all around, and other Legendaries fought against each other, and even apparently, some survivors of the native civilization that developed there were playing on rebels and freedom fighters.
Currently, Yvraine was preparing the last steps to cast special illusion magic of 9th Level on Samiel, as this was a spell that could be cast only by Legendaries. Fortunately, due to her background, she got a few interesting things and gadgets before she started claiming the Tower, and many of them were such things that no other person would be able to get their hands on them.
This little project of theirs required this specific spell, which was very powerful and thus needed a lot of preparations, as Yvraine had some of the special methods to unleash such powerful spells prepared by her family if she ever found herself in trouble.
Suddenly the Magic Circle around Samiel lit, as a huge amount of Mana burst out of the gem, as Samiel's appearance started changing in front of Yvraine's eyes.
No longer was he a handsome man with long red hair and golden eyes; his appearance changed to that of an Ork Warrior, as he grew more muscular and had an appearance of that of an Ork from the Palerock Tribe.
Thus was the appearance that he was going to use during his mission to frame for murdering young Bugbears and raiding one of their settlements. This plan was carefully forged by Yvraine, as she thought about most small details in it, as she was the mastermind in the shadows.
Yvraine even cast smaller Illusion spells on his Undeads, so they looked like living Orks from the Palerock Tribe, as Samiel was going to raid a smaller Bugbear Settlement, inhabited by several hundreds of Bugbears, most of them were Iron-Tier, with a few of them being Steel-Tier Bugbears.
After everything was finished, he took his "Ork Entourage" and went in the direction of the Bugbear Settlement. His aim wasn't actually to kill everyone but cause as much carnage on the Bugbearts as possible.
By doing this, he would leave witnesses and Bugbears that would point to the Palerock Clan and also create a better psychological effect on the Bugbears if he left some survivors. Not to mention, having some witnesses of the event would be better, and it would create a more realistic story.
Meanwhile, Yvraine remained in the cave where they were living as she went to scout the surroundings, as she started looking for clues to complete her quest of searching for some enemy of her Goddess that was hiding on the 1st Floor.
He chose this village for a specific purpose, as it was filled only with women, children, and old Bugbears not capable of combat; basically, this village had the purpose of cultivating a new generation of Bugbears.
So it was only logical he would carry out his massacre there, as that would enrage the Bugbear Tribe even further, probably that much, they would declare war on their neighbors, the Palerock Clan in a moment they got the news.
Because of this, this village was located deep in their territory. Even though it was located a bit deeper in the Bugbear territory, it only took Samiel two hours to arrive at the location of the Bugbear Village.
The first thing he did after he finally arrived at the Bugbear Village he scouted a bit the area of the village. He seriously doubted that these tents and falling apart wooden huts and shacks could even be called a village.
'It is apparently a collective trait of all Greenskins.'
He sneered while thinking about the primitiveness of the Goblinoid and Orkoid species and greenskins as a whole before he commanded his Undreads to charge at the village of the Bugbears.
Greenskins as a whole were destroyed, not builders. All Orkoids and Goblinoids or their related species were capable of building were wooden huts and tens, some shacks, and that was all. However, if some strong Tribe wanted to show their power, they would attack and capture some fortified city.
They often did this and attacked cities of dwarves and waged war with dwarves for the dwarven cities. For Orks as a whole, it was a sign of status and power to be able to capture, conquer and occupy some strongly fortified city.
Suddenly 72 Steel-Tier Undeads Orks, under his leadership, rushed out of the woods at the Bugbears, as Samiel slashed with the huge war axe he was holding at escaping elder Bugbear, cleaving him in half.
The blood spluttered at Samiel, who found it a bit disgusting as he licked some of the Bugbear blood, thinking he wouldn't drink this next time.
"Dammed weapon, it is so unpractical."
To be authentically and foolproof, he was forced to fight with Ork War Axe, which was an enormous weapon and was heavy as hell, but fortunately, with his overwhelming strength, it was no problem lifting it up.
After killing another two Bugbears, Samiel went deeper into the village, as his Undead Orks quickly overcame the defenses of the village as this village was located in territory firmly secured in the hands of the local Bugbear Tribe, so they didn't station any strong warriors here.
After the Steel-Tier Bugbears were killed, there was practically no resistance from them, as they started destroying the village, tearing down the buildings, and setting everything on fire, thus killing the Bugbears who were hiding in the tens or huts.
Countless Bugbears escaped the village, not daring to look back, as Samiel was using some Illusion Magic from Yvraine to spread the Ork corpses all around the place.
After they destroyed the entire village, he purposely took out several Ork corpses belonging to the Palerock Clan, which had been stored in a Dimensional Storage Ring that Yvraine gave him, as he helped to make a crime scene more believable.
This was because it would be hardly believable if only Bugbears would be killed here. In the end, there were still some Steel-Tier Bugbears here, so it was understandable that they would put up the resistance.
Thus he took around seventy Ork Corpses, most of them being Iron-Tier and Steel-Tier, and left them around the entire village, so it looked like a real fight was going on here.
After everything was set, Samiel recalled his Undeads and collected several hundreds of Iron-Tier and Steel-Tier souls before he quickly ran away, as he could predict that Bugbears would soon arrive here.
This place was under the surveillance of the Bugbears, and Samiel knew that he had only a short time period when the vacancy window occurred to carry out his massacre. Afterward, the Bugbear Tribe would be notified and arrive here in full power.
The entire operation was blitzkrieg and took only fifteen minutes before it was finished, and Samiel vanished into thin air.
And just like he predicted, not even half an hour later, after his departure, the large stride of Gold-Tier Bugbears arrived at the destroyed burning village, littered with corpses of murdered Bugbears and some Orkish invaders.
"Descplicalbe Orks! This is war!"
Shouted leading old Bugbear, who excluded powerful Legendary-Tier pressure all around him as he howled in rage. This was a despicable attack carried out by Orks when the Bugbears were not looking, targeting their weakest.
Not many knew even among the tribe, but this village was a place where his direct descendant lived, who was born only a few weeks ago and was still a baby, but now was murdered by the Orks.
As the Bugbears searched through the village and checked on the killed Orks, they quickly found out they belonged to the Palerock Clan, which was an unassuming Clan of Orks with one Legendary-Tier Ork.
After they recovered the survivors of the massacre, the Elder who arrived here became even more enraged than before as he heard about the atrocities carried out by the Orks of the Palerock Clan.
"Call other Elders and Chieftain; we need to discuss how we annihilate these bastards."
And it was; the war between the Bugbear Tribe and Palerock Clan was ensured to happen, as Samiel basically completed the Unique Quest, as it would only be a matter of time before the Bugbears marched at their neighbors.
Bugbears were simple creatures, not really questioning why the Palerock Clan attacked the village or how the massacre was carried out. No, these were too hard questions for their peanut-sized brains, and immediately they chose the war.
