Chapter 1885: Something Illegal.



His focus on the environment was only diverted when a golden arrow appeared in his vision. It pointed in a certain direction.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

He stood up and decided to see where it led. He eventually reached a spot outside of the grass plain where some people were waiting for him. They were all orcs like him.

One of them was wearing what appeared to be golden armor. He can't really tell because of all the light it was producing. The armor is blinding to look at, so it might not be golden.

There were two other orcs standing around the one in golden armor. These two have the same mark he has on his forehead. It was the mark of an Orc with nine crowned heads.

These two were standing. Only the one in golden armor was sitting on the ground. He or she also had their eyes closed. It was only when he arrived that they opened their eyes.

The orc said, "The last hero is here. I shall now inform you of what's going on."

"I am Deva. I am a priest of the 9 Crowns. I was sent to bring you to our God's kingdom here on earth."

Taylor asked, "What was that golden arrow?"

The orc priest was confused. It asked, "What golden arrow?"

He explained, "I saw a golden arrow that led me here. Was I the only one that says it?"

The two other heroes spoke. "Yeah, I saw one too."

The priest stood up and addressed them. "I don't know what arrow you speak of, but I suppose it was a sign of our god giving you directions. The 9 Crowns told me to wait here, and I waited. Then you came to me. I see no other explanation for what you saw."

Taylor nodded while the priest continued, "Now that we have met, we best be on our way. We do have a long way to go."

The orc priest bowed his head and prayed. The three heroes looked unsure at each other. They didn't know what to do. But then they saw four large wolves bounding out of the forest. The four black wolves were running straight for them.

Taylor laughed and said, "I love my job."

He climbed onto the wolves just like the priest did. Then they set off away from the city. Their journey took them across the edge of the forest until they reached a fortress. It took them 11 days of riding for them to make it this far.

During that time, all they saw were trees and things that wanted to eat them, so they were glad to finally see signs of civilization.

The fortress was flanked by two mountains on both sides, so it was in a valley. It looked interesting, and Taylor was looking forward to seeing it up close. Unfortunately, the priest didn't bring them to pass through the fortress. They stopped in front of one of the mountains far away from the fortress.

Black Knife spoke. He rarely did so Taylor paid attention to what he said.

"It looks like we are doing something illegal."

Taylor asked, "What do you mean?"

The third hero, Sharon, replied, "He means that we are not using the main and open road. Instead, we are using the more dangerous but secretive option."

Taylor asked the priest, "Are we really going to climb the mountain? I thought we stopped to pick something up."

Deva replied with a snort. "We are not doing anything illegal. We have to go over the mountains, or we will be attacked by the fortress. The fortress is controlled by the humans, and they kill Orcs on sight."

Taylor said, "Right, we are orcs now."

Deva asked, "What were you before?"

Black Knife replied, "It doesn't matter what we were before. What matters is how we will get over this mountain.

Deva said confidently. "Do not worry. The 9 Crowns has everything under control. As for the humans, their control over these lands will soon be over."

Taylor had to ask, "What about where we came from? There were orcs and other races there. No one attacked us."

"That's the City of Adventurers. It is open to every race. We are currently in the kingdom of Thames. It is a kingdom created when the humans drove off the orcs from our homes. We were forced to live in the jungle at the edge of the Northern Domain. But our gods have returned, and so has mana. They won't be able to hold us back anymore."
