Chapter 83

From their words, my eyes began to glisten, as my will to fight churned on due to my innate nature. Unexpectedly, the one who was most pleased was Hayeon, as it seemed that she had accumulated a lot of stress as of late.

“Let’s go.”

In fact, I had already told the clan that a battle will arise soon. Thanks to that, everyone was on standby. Of course, there was some time until the actual fight, but Gark and Hark were extremely excited, despite the wait. After leaving the tent, the clan began to scream and holler. Since I had not told them to be quiet, it did not matter much, but thanks to that, the village became even more clamorous.

“It’s battle time! Blood Dagger has declared that there will be a fight!”

“What a glorious battle it’ll be with Blood Dagger! He says pregnant women could not go!”

As expected, the village became lively in a flash.

“A real battle! It’ll be a true fight in one week! Ggirik!”

“Ggirik! Ggirik!”

“For Blood Dagger!”

It was extremely noisy, and even Mev was smiling, as she merged with the tumultuous cround. Hayeon, after looking at me, soon followed behind, as Mev began to announce loudly.

“Do not be disappointed if you cannot participate in this honorable battle! Your missions are also great! For the revival of the tribe!”

It was quite kind of her to take care of her subordinates and console them. As such, I did not say anything as Ragia, Hakajin, and Three Goblin Sisters, all burst out from the tent after saluting me.

“Let’s go! Ggirik! We must collect food in the meantime! Ggirik!”

Originally, the village was full of energy and vitality, but it was overflowing at the moment during this boisterous scene, I could hear supplies along with equipment being packed and prepared. When the tribe was a bit small, I had helped out with these errands, but with the growth of the tribe now, everyone, including Mev, did not allow me to take part in that kind of work.

Having the authority of the Chief was the problem.

As such, I slowly left the tent area and began to monitor and check out the camp to see if there were any supplies or belongings that might be missed during the preparations.

“For Blood Dagger!”

The clansman greeted me when they sensed my presence.

There were those who were happily moving the supplies and provisions, but there were also Goblins carrying some of the larger loads which normally the Orcs would carry. I even saw a group of six Goblins carrying this gigantic bag. Despite no one ordering them, seeing how they were busily preparing and contributing to the clan in their own way, I found their appearances quite cute.

“Ggirik! This way! The meat needs to go here!”

“Bring the Human meat over here! Separate out the food which the Chief will eat!”

Among them, there was the Goblin who painted. As expected, he was preparing the flags blissfully. As if he would miss out on precious time with his newly born daughter Nicole, he was continually looking back at his tent.

I approached him.

“Do you want to be with your family?”

“I...don’t. I will become a glorious father who will win the battle for Nicole! Ggirik! For Blood Dagger!”

I had asked a useless question. His will to fight was bountiful enough. It was the same for the other Green Skins who were fathers-to-be. Just like humans, they were all carrying on with their obligatory duties.

After everyone had busily moved around, preparations were complete just like that. Gark and Hark raised the flag standards high into the air by my sides as I stroked the fur of Ibar. It was then that a figure began to walk over. It was Black Spear. I had told him in advance that there would be a fight, but having noticed the loud and bustling noises here, it seems he had come in search of me.

Of course, I would be able to understand once I see it myself, but it seems that they were planning on roughly setting up an entrance and exit, while also studying the ecology of the Earth Worms to make a path.

Of course, the goblin who painted was assigned to draw up a map. Funnily enough, the map was slowly being completed by one who was used to just drawing tattoos and making flags. Of course, the map needed a bit of work and minor details had to be updated, but this much was enough.

After some time had passed, the tunnel we dug out was continually heading over to that goal. At this time, I sent a message to Ahyeon.

[Baek Ahyeon.]

[Yes! Yes! Savior-nim... I have waited.]

As usual, I could hear a bright and cheerful voice of Ahyeon. Before I was going to ask the purpose of my message, Ahyeon spoke first.

[I’m...I’m sorry, Savior-nim. It seems that the sacrifices will depart after a bit more time.]

[They’re late.]

[No...normally, they were going to depart now, but after receiving further news about information of the cave’s interior, it caused a bit of delay.]

[So they have discovered their base.]

It was a joyous fact that certainly met our expectations.

[Bu...but the exact location... even though I had asked while laying low, I did not receive an answer...So...I’m sorry.]

Recently, the guy seemed to have truly fallen for Ahyeon. Despite that, he did not reveal the core contents of the subject at hand. It was what I thought would happen from a cautious guy like him, but it was still a bit disappointing.

[No. Do not be disappointed my disciple.]

[Yes...Yes! But please rejoice! I have succeeded in dispatching the martyrs as Porters! Pro...probably, if the disciples were to see Savior-nim, they would genuinely be happy.]

[I can’t wait.]

[Yes...Yes!]

Despite not relaying a command, with how the operation was advancing smoothly, it was quite pleasing seeing Ahyeon. It was definitely correct in assigning her this task. As I previously mentioned, the Holy Order was coming with a company of small to middle-sized clans, so it was necessary to bring some workers or Porters. The fact that Ahyeon had placed some disciples there wasn’t a hard task at all.

The fact that she had done this regarding any unexpected circumstances which might occur, it was a job where she should be praised for by itself. In proportion to her blindly changing, she was also growing and becoming wiser.

[My young lamb. The day we meet. You will receive what you want.]

TL Afterword

Calvis: LOL this Hakajin is basically a genius. Engineering skills, can do military administration and also manage the affairs of the clan. A great strategist, intelligent, and also has buff totems. That’s like the perfect Support Character.
