Orc Eiyuu Monogatari Sontaku Retsuden

rc Country.

Wild and lawless, stray Orcs were a constant nuisance to other nations.

And so, naturally, Bash found himself on the wrong end of a pair of arrows, nocked into the respective, pulled back bowstrings of their respective bows.

“My name is Bash.
I am on a quest to look for something.
I came here on the recommendation of Houston, the Human General, who told me that the object of my journey might be here.”

“Bash? General Houston sent you…?”

The two Elven men stared at Bash.

They must be on the younger side.

Either they only entered military service near the signing of the peace treaty or didn’t participate in the war at all.

Otherwise, they would have been trembling at the mere mention of Bash’s name, and had they recognized him from afar, never let him get within striking distance in the first place.

Elven veterans, when encountering an unknown entity, would blend and become nearly invisible within the forest, hiding themselves and never coming within fifty arm’s reach, using their magic to project their voices and interrogate any intruders from afar.

Only fresh-faced recruits would act this recklessly.

“Hey, did you hear what he said?”

“Shut up, let me focus, an Orc is coming this way.”

“He said he was just a traveler.”

“So, you think we should let him through?”

“Not sure.
We were told to not let stray Orcs pass… is he a stray?”

“Don’t ask me.
Not like I can tell the difference.”

The two of them were flustered by Bash’s dignified attitude.

If he was a stray, he would have already attacked if they had stopped him like they did.

Or perhaps they wouldn’t even have had a chance to stop him, as stray Orcs were also known to instantly deal with any potential obstacle by yelling out their Warcry and charging into battle.

The fact that this Orc in front of them had done neither made them think that he was maybe not a stray…

However, it was also possible that he was lying.

Decisions, decisions…

“Hey, you two! This mister here isn’t a stray Orc!”

And then Zell stepped up to the plate.

She flew up to the Elve’s faces and began her speech.

“Hello, la…uh… gentlemen and gentlemen! Let me introduce you to the Hero of the Orcs, the one and only Bash! He is the savior and greatest warrior of the Orc Country! A representative of all Orcs! A real VIP! And if a great man like him is travelling, then its obvious that he has the permission and blessing of the Orc King! Do you get it?! If you call him a stray Orc, then all the Orcs in Orc Country are strays! Now then, I’ll forgive your little blunder of not recognizing an incredible personage like him and let this slide.
You both look pretty young, and the young make mistakes! Clear the way now, chop chop!”

And finally, to follow up on her little monologue, she rattled off a litany of praise for Bash.

The strongest, invincible, fierce, mighty…The two young Elven guards frowned at the Faerie’s endless blabbering that could only be matched in scale by an Elder Elf telling a story about themselves.

“You know any of this?”

“I don’t know of any Orc celebrity.
You, you’re lying, aren’t you?”

“Suspicious…”

“Yeah, really suspicious.
I don’t believe a word that comes out of any Faerie’s mouth anyways.”

The Elves had a saying: “A Faerie’s instruction causes great destruction”.

The story behind the saying went as such:

There once was an Elven traveler.

In the midst of his journey, he noticed there was a hole in his canteen.

He quickly plugged the hole, but the water was already long gone.

Thirsty and lightheaded, he wandered through the forest in search of a source of water, when a Faerie appeared and said: “This way, this way! There’s water over here! There’s 100% water if you follow me!”

The Elven traveler, being desperate, trusted and followed the Faerie, and sure enough, after a while of walking, they came across what appeared to be a pond.

Overjoyed, the Elf jumped into the water.

But moments later, he let out a shriek.

In his excitement, he hadn’t realizer that this was a hot spring.

And all the Faerie did was laugh at the poor man’s misfortune and scalded face.

In other words, Faeries are born pranksters whose words are full of misdirection, and you shouldn’t rely on them to give advice when it comes to important decisions.

However, it was only recently that this saying has become widespread.

During the war, the citizens of Elf Country didn’t have the time to travel like the man in the story did – not that they had much contact with the Faeries anyways.

It was more than likely that the saying was born to warn Elves from Faeric deception during the war, and the story was only made up afterwards to make it more palatable.

Anyway, the two Elves did not seem convinced.

“So, you’re saying you won’t let us through?”

“Exactly! No dirty Orc like yourself will enter Elven lands!”

“Hmm…”

If they couldn’t make their way in, Bash would be troubled.

If the pair were just wandering around without a real destination, they could have easily just turned around, shrugged it off, and say, “Well, let’s go to another country”.

But right now, he was working off information given to him by “Houston the Swine Slayer”.

Bash thoroughly believed that there must be a beautiful Elf within Siwanasi Forest that would be willing to become his wife.

Given the end goal of his journey, there was no way he could pass up on this opportunity.

Of course, this was just some minor, individual purpose – not some grand quest.

There was no real reason to force his way through.

However, if he was going to be denied entry simply because of his race – because he was an Orc, then Bash could not back down.

There were no laws in place that stated that Elven nations would not admit entry to Orcs.

There was no fault on the Hero’s side.

“Hey, what’s the hold up over here? Stop blocking the road!”
