Chapter 59 Orcs Are Approaching



The Hunter Association Head, Robert, was horrified by the news of the approaching horde of Orcs. He immediately gave orders to Mireya to assign an emergency mission to protect the city and to send some low-rank hunters to warn the citizens of the town. 

As he scanned the room, he couldn't help but notice a group of five people, a very handsome young man, and four extremely beautiful women. 

They looked as if they were goddesses that descended from heaven into the mortal world. Robert was mesmerized by their enchanting beauty, but he soon noticed something unusual about them.

These five individuals didn't possess any mana in their bodies, which was highly intriguing to Robert. While the other hunters were terrified by this situation, they seemed to be very calm and capable of dealing with the situation with ease. 

Robert thought to himself, "So, he is the one Mireya has been going on about. Yuan, and that snake beastman must be Emma, his girlfriend. Mireya told me that they took care of a Greater Wolf without taking any damage, and their unusual power is evident."

As Robert continued to observe them, he couldn't help but wonder what their story was and how they had obtained such power. Nonetheless, he knew that he needed their help to protect Clover Town from the incoming Orc horde.

Robert walked towards Yuan's group, feeling somehow inferior to them but not sure why. "Hello there," he said with a smile. "I'm the head of the hunter association of this town and the only A-rank hunter here. Mireya has been talking about you guys a lot, saying how capable you are."

Yuan nodded respectfully. "Yes, I'm Yuan, and these are my wives, Anna and Grace, Lily, and last but not least Emma. We're glad to meet you, Head Robert."

Robert raised an eyebrow at the mention of "wives," but didn't comment. "I was hoping you guys could lend us a helping hand with the Orc invasion. It would be greatly appreciated."

Yuan and his wives didn't hesitate. "Of course," Yuan said. "We've lived in this town our whole lives. We can't just stand by and watch it be destroyed."

Yuan and his wives immediately agreed to help, Grace then said, "Even though we have just become hunters, we will help in dealing with the Orcs." Anna, Lily, and Emma all nodded their heads in agreement with Grace's statement.

Robert was pleased to hear that Yuan and his wives will provide some extra hands. He then excused himself by saying, "I have to make some preparations before the Orcs reach the vicinity." With that, Robert left the group.

Yuan turned to his wives and said, "Let's start preparing for the Orc invasion." His wives nodded in agreement, and they started discussing their battle plan. They knew that they needed to act fast and efficiently to protect their town from the approaching threat.

Meanwhile, The news of the Orc invasion spread like wildfire throughout the town, causing chaos and panic to ensue among the citizens. People were running around frantically, trying to gather their belongings and evacuate the town. The low-ranking hunters were doing their best to calm the people down and direct them towards the south gate.

"Please remain calm, everyone," a young hunter spoke in a firm yet reassuring tone. "We will protect this town from the Orcs. But in order to do that, we need you to evacuate to the south gate as quickly as possible. Do not worry about your belongings, just grab what you need and head towards the gate."

Some of the citizens were hesitant to leave their homes behind, but the hunters were quick to convince them otherwise.

"Your lives are more important than your belongings," another hunter chimed in. "We will do our best to protect your homes, but we need you to trust us and evacuate as soon as possible."

As the citizens started to evacuate towards the south gate, the hunters were busy making preparations for the upcoming battle. They rushed to the alchemist shop to purchase healing potions and other necessary items, while others went to gather weapons and armor.

"We need to be well-prepared for this battle," a burly hunter grunted as he lifted a heavy sword. "These Orcs won't go down without a fight."

Meanwhile, some hunters were busy assisting the children and elderly citizens to evacuate safely.

"Come on, little one, let's get you to safety," a young hunter said as she helped a small child onto her back. "Hold on tight, we'll be at the south gate soon."

The citizens were grateful for the hunters' assistance, and some even offered their homes as a safe haven for the hunters to retreat to in case the battle became too intense.

"You can use my home as a safe house," an elderly woman said, holding out her keys to a group of hunters. "I won't be leaving town, so please feel free to use it as you need."

The hunters thanked the woman and promised to keep her home safe.

The terror of the Orcs was well-known among the people, and the thought of their loved ones being violated and devoured by these monstrous creatures was unbearable. The citizens were willing to do whatever it takes to protect their town and their loved ones. 

They knew that they couldn't leave the hunters to fight the Orcs alone, and so they offered their help in any way they could. The hunters appreciated their support and worked together with the citizens to prepare for the upcoming battle.

Meanwhile at the Hunter Association, As Grace played with Yuan's hair, Lily couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy. 

Anna, sensing the tension, broke the silence by bringing up the severity of the situation. "An Orc Lord is an A-rank monster that can destroy a small city alone," she explained, her expression serious. 

"And now it has an army of hundreds. It's impossible for the Association Head Robert to defeat the Orc Lord alone without a party of four A-rank hunters."

Anna then turned her attention to Yuan, looking at him with concern. "I know that you and your wives are cultivators and have very strong physical strength and reflexes, unlike mages," she said. 

"But are you sure you can take down the Orc Lord? You're at the peak of the Spirit Warrior realm, but that may not be enough against an A-rank monster like the Orc Lord."

Grace chuckled as she continued to play with Yuan's hair, "I have no doubt that my darling can take down that Orc Lord, right darling?"

Yuan smiled at Grace and nodded his head in agreement, "Yes, I'm confident in my abilities, and with the help of you guys and the other hunters, we can defeat the Orc Lord and its army."

eαglesnᴏνel Lily couldn't help but roll her eyes at Grace's comment and muttered under her breath, "As if he needs your validation, Mom." 

Anna shot Lily a stern look before turning her attention back to Yuan, "We don't want you to underestimate the Orc Lord, it's a dangerous creature that should not be taken lightly."

Yuan nodded in agreement, "I understand the risks, but I had recently broken through to the first level of the Spirit Master realm. So, I am confident in my strength," he said. "If I were to unleash my full power, I believe I can take down the Orc Lord."

Emma, who was sitting next to Yuan, placed her hand on his shoulder and said, "We will fight together, and we won't let anything happen to each other." Anna nodded her head, feeling a little relieved that her family is strong and united.

At that moment, Head Robert entered the room, looking serious. He sat down at the head of the table and said, "The Orc army is getting closer, and we need to make a plan. We have a few A-rank hunters coming to help us, but we still need more. We can't let the Orcs destroy our city." 

Yuan and his family listened intently as Robert explained the situation and the plan he had in mind.

Yuan then asked, "What about the civilians? Have they been evacuated to safety?" Robert nodded and said, "Yes, we have evacuated them to the south gate. But we still need to be careful, the Orcs are unpredictable, and they might try to attack the civilians." Yuan then suggested that they split into teams, with each team protecting a different area of the city.

Meanwhile, At the northern city gate, the soldiers, hunters, and mages stood in a defensive line, placing traps up ahead as they waited for the Orcs. All were well-equipped for the battle ahead.

After some time had passed, one of the soldiers spotted the advancing group of Orcs and quickly informed the others.

"Orcs incoming! Get ready!" the soldier yelled, drawing his sword.

Another soldier raced to the warning bell and rang it loudly. The sound echoed through the city, alerting the citizens to take cover.

The mages began to chant, their hands glowing with arcane energy, while the hunters notched arrows and aimed at the approaching Orcs.

"Steady now," the captain of the guard said, his voice calm and authoritative. "Hold the line and let them come to us."
