Chereads / Journey Of The Last Orc / Chapter 15 - Battle In The Wood

Chapter 15 - Battle In The Wood

Everyone was surprised by Gorr who suddenly slammed into Ragnar's bodyguard. Seeing his main bodyguard down Ragnar became frightened, he tried to see what was really happening. How surprised he was to find out that there was an Orc attacking.

"O-ORC, it's an Orc, hurry and prepare the horse"

Ragnar ran to his chariot, he hurriedly got in and ordered the driver to run away immediately. The carriage moved to take Ragnar away from Ursu village, but Gorr did not remain silent knowing that Ragnar was running away.

Gorr uprooted one of the trees there, then he threw it towards the chariot that Ragnar was riding. "BRAAKKKKKK" The tree fell in front of the chariot, several horses died from being hit by Gorr's tree.

 "You stay there, I won't let you escape before apologizing to the villagers."

Ragnar made no sound at all after seeing a tree fly and block his path. It turned out that he had fainted unconscious.

Ragnar's bodyguard woke up, trying to remember what had just happened. He was thrown, an orc suddenly attacked him. When he opened his eyes he saw Gorr with his back to him, from the squire's point of view his chariot had been destroyed.

Thinking the group was dead, the guard quickly drew his sword and attacked Gorr. Gorr was able to dodge the attack and tried to counterattack, but the bodyguard managed to slash Gorr first. The guard retreated to avoid Gorr's follow-up attack. A slash scar is now visible on Gorr's chest,

 "Your attack is not bad , very different from the bandit I fought yesterday"

 "How dare you, don't compare me to a damn bandit"

The bodyguard again attacked Gorr with his sword, this time his attack was blocked by Gorr using his axe.

 "I am a bodyguard trained by the Valskar family you shit Orc."

Gorr pushed the bodyguard away and counterattacked with a headbutt that injured the bodyguard's head.

"Who the hell is a Valksar, I've never heard of one, asshole?"

The bodyguard was briefly unconscious, but he quickly returned to the fight. With his unconscious state, the bodyguard flowed mana into his sword.

An extraordinary use of mana, to the point that the sword he was holding radiated a powerful aura. Gorr was shocked by the incident as he had never seen a human release mana like this before, not even a barsmith.

With great mana, the bodyguard slashed his sword. A powerful attack was directed towards Gorr, an attack similar to the one Gorr had practiced but with greater destructive power. He could not dodge because if Gorr dodged Ursu Village would be destroyed. Without any consideration, Gorr blocked the attack with his axe.

 "TWOARRRR"

Gorr managed to stop the attack even though, Gorr's body also suffered quite severe injuries. Seeing Gorr managed to withstand the attack, the bodyguard looked worried.

 "It's amazing that I didn't expect my strongest attack to be held back."

 "No wonder it feels so damn painful."

The two of them looked at each other, both of them were in bad shape. The bodyguard was running out of mana, while Gorr was suffering from a wound on his hand area after withstanding the attack earlier. The bodyguard asked Gorr

 "You're amazing, as rumored Orcs are very strong"

 "You too, I didn't think you could utilize mana like that. I'm Gorr the last Orc, who are you?"

 "Patrick Kluvert"

----

While Gorr and Patrick were fighting, a chariot with a more luxurious shape than before came near Ursu Village. Hearing the sound of an extraordinary battle, the Merchant looked very excited.

 "Wow, a big battle, looks like we're late again."

 "...."

The Merchants' bodyguard didn't seem to care about his master's words. He was agitated by something in Ursu village. The Merchant was annoyed with the bodyguard's attitude and began to grumble.

 "Hey don't ignore me damn it, don't make this atmosphere tense"

 "I'm sorry sir, I just feel that something that is fighting in Ursa village is very powerful"

The merchant was silent, soon he looked happy.

 "Wow a strong man huhaaa, can I ask him as my bodyguard this time hehehehe"

The merchant's eyes lit up, while his bodyguard could only shake his head at his employer's behavior. Their carriage stopped as a tree blocked their path. The merchant was knocked down by the sudden stop of the train "GEDUBRAKK"

 "Hey, be careful when you stop, damn it. Why did you stop anyway? We haven't arrived yet."

 "Sorry, sir, but the road is blocked by a tree."

The merchant and his bodyguard got off to look at the tree that blocked their way. The bodyguard found a bloodstain on one of the spots of the tree

 "Hehehehe. There seems to be a brutal battle going on in there."

The merchant laughed, showing no fear at all.

Gorr and Pattrick looked at each other, waiting for their opponent's move. Their ragged breathing signaled that their stamina had been depleted.

Just as they were about to resume the fight, a voice came from the direction of Ragnar's carriage.

 "STOP!!!!! STOP YOU BASTARDS...."

They turned their eyes towards the source of the voice, Patrick's eyes widened when he saw the source of the voice. It was Ragnar he was alive and had regained consciousness.

 "Damn it I didn't expect you to be able to overwhelm Patrick, I won't let you use my last weapon."

Ragnar took something from his pocket, it was a ball. Ragnar grasped the ball and threw it to the ground, a smoke appeared as soon as the ball hit the ground.

On the other hand, the Merchant's entourage was confused by the tree in the middle of the road. The guard sensed something and looked up quickly.

"What's going on Lucas?"

 "Sorry sir, I will monitor this incident from above."

The bodyguard named Lucas jumped up the tree to watch what was happening behind the tree.

After the smoke cleared, three people were perched on the tree, no one knew where they came from. It seems that the three people came because of the smoke they were lit.

 "Hey you Dark Owls, Attack the Orc over there I'm calling you"

 "Show me the proof."

Ragnar showed a silver owl-patterned badge from his pocket. The three people were now facing Gorr. Gorr, who realized he was being targeted, prepared for their attack.

Four against one, is not a good number. Especially with his body that has not fully recovered, Gorr is prepared to fight as much as possible. Gorr raised his axe again

 "Attack me with all your might."

Hearing the challenge from the orc, someone from the group began to give orders

 "Don't kill him just knock him out. He's an orc, if we bring him to his majesty, he'll be very happy."

The black owls began to attack Gorr.

----

On the other side of the fortress, Theo was standing facing the battlefield. The sound of swords and cries of casualties were clearly heard indicating hundreds of lives lost on the battlefield.

Someone came up to Theo to report the situation on the battlefield

 "Report Commander Theo, the conditions on the battlefield are as you expected. We managed to control 70% of the battlefield area, it's only a matter of time before we win this battle."

Hearing the news Theo looked unhappy, he was silent for a moment thinking about something. With a heavy voice he said

 "We're ahead but the monster hasn't appeared yet"

A person descended from a flying object belonging to the opposing army from Theo, that person randomized the battlefield alone. Quickly the victory that was originally held by Theo and his troops now turned into the hands of the enemy.

Seeing this condition Theo Prepared to jump into the battlefield

 "Time to stretch my muscles"

From inside the flying object, a masked man was seen watching the battlefield. From inside the object someone asked him.

 "It's amazing, he alone is able to reverse the conditions on the battlefield"

Hearing these words the masked man replied

 "Hehehehe. If it was just ordinary troops he would crush them like ants. I hope the Commander of their troops comes down and confronts him".

 "Are you sure?"

 "Of course."
