Chapter 32 - Tragic
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Town of Dawn, inside Star Elves Jewelry.
The wooden counter that was originally filled with all kinds of gold and silver accessories, pearls and jade, had long become a broken wood in the corner. The jewelry inside had also disappeared.
In the middle of the hall was a stone platform. On it were all sorts of cooked dishes and large cups of ale.
A few bare-chested and muscular orcs were sitting around the stone platform, eating and drinking.
One of the bald orcs grabbed a mixture of meat and vegetables from the plate and stuffed it into his mouth violently, his mouth full of oil.
A short-haired orc beside him held a fork in his left hand and carefully inserted a small piece of meat into his plate. He used the knife in his right hand to cut it into two clumsily before putting the meat into his mouth.
He teased the bald orc, “Chado, look at me, we should use knives and forks when eating. That’s more like it! You’re really barbaric and vulgar to grab it with your hands!” His expression was filled with an inexplicable
sense of superiority.
The bald orc grabbed the cup and gulped down a mouthful of ale. He let out a sigh of relief and ignored the short-haired orc’s words.
The orc sitting opposite him, who had a scar across his face, said sarcastically to the short-haired orc, “Haha, Baji, you’ve been in the human town for three months. You haven’t learned anything else, but you’ve learned
these useless things.”
“How is it useless? Look at how clean my hands are now. As for you all, you’ve just finished shitting, yet you’re grabbing food with your hands. Wouldn’t that be eating your own feces?”
“It still came from our bodies. I don’t mind being dirty!”
“That’s right. You’ve been eating it for decades. What’s the use of paying attention now?”
At this moment, a middle-aged woman walked over with a steaming basin. Before she could place it on the table, the bald orc, Baji, slapped the woman’s buttocks and pretended to be angry. “What’s going on? Why is it
taking so long to serve the dishes!”
The other two orcs also stopped eating and watched this scene with interest, as if they were watching a good show.
The woman’s expression was terrified as she stammered, “I-I’m sorry, my lord. I’ve already done my best!”
“Looks like the lesson I taught your husband yesterday wasn’t enough!” Baji said viciously, and his eyes gradually became crazed. He then stood up and walked toward the back room.
Upon seeing this, the woman frantically released her hands that were holding the basin and threw herself onto the ground. She hugged Baji’s calf tightly and begged, “My lord, I beg you, please spare him. He’s about to
die!”
The pot filled with meat soup lost its support and fell heavily to the ground.
Bang! With a muffled sound, the soup pot shattered into pieces. The meat soup spilled all over the ground, and the boiling hot soup splashed onto the few people.
“Dogshit!” Baji cursed softly. He did not expect this woman, who had been rather obedient a few days ago, to react so violently. He only wanted to scare her and take advantage of her. Perhaps they had been too harsh
on her husband a few days ago.
Human bodies were really fragile. With that in mind, Baji pushed the woman away impatiently and sat back in his seat. Looking at the gravy and meat pieces scattered all over the ground, he couldn’t help but feel a little
heartache. He couldn’t help but pick up a piece and stuff it into his mouth. Ever since he was young, he had never been as comfortable as he was during the past three months.
Mmm—How fragrant!
“Hey, Baji, you don’t mind using your hands this time?” The scar-faced orc teased as he looked at Baji’s body.
“Haha, you ate your own shit too!”
“Hmph” Baji pretended not to hear and began to focus on his meal.
The woman knelt on the ground in a daze. Then, without saying a word, she cleaned up the pieces on the ground and the residue of the meat soup before returning to the inner room.
In the inner room.
A middle-aged man was lying in a corner by the wall with a blanket covering his body.
The look on his face was hard to tell. There were patches of green and purple, especially one of his ears. It was gone. Looking at the hideous wound that was not even bandaged, one could tell that it had been torn off
alive.
His slightly heaving chest proved that he was still alive.
The woman walked over to the man and knelt down beside him. She looked at him with a miserable expression as tears silently rolled down her face.
“Dear God, please save my husband!” She prayed silently.
“Ah!” Suddenly, a shrill scream rang out, causing her to be stunned.
In the jewelry shop, Yan Chong looked at the three orc corpses lying under his knife and panted slightly.
XP : +56.6
XP :+23.5
XP: +715
After another round of XP, Yan Chong felt satisfied.
It was good to follow the big boss. With Loli holding the fort, Yan Chong offered to fight these orcs. After all, as long as the house did not collapse, soundproofing spells could be used silently. Yan Chong could also use
this opportunity to hone his skills. If there was any danger, Loli could help in time.
However, there were no other Orc captains in the inn, so they could only search all the way here.
At this moment, a haggard middle-aged woman suddenly walked out from the inner room. Her brown hair was messy like weeds, and her clothes were tattered. Occasionally, one could see her inner beauty.
When she saw the orc corpse on the ground, she was stunned.
“Are you soldiers of the Empire?” She asked excitedly.
“No, we are the Revolutionary Army. We are fighting the orcs to liberate the people of the Empire!” Loli stepped forward and said loudly.
“Thank you, thank you, thank you!” She quickly thanked them, her tone gradually becoming teary. Suddenly, she knelt on the ground and begged, “Please save my husband. He was tortured to death by these damned
orcs!”
Upon hearing this, Loli hurriedly helped her up and followed her into the inner room.
When Yan Chong lifted the blanket off the man lying in the corner, he was stunned.
Although he had seen some war films where the prisoners were tortured and looked miserable, those were all special effects after makeup. When Yan Chong saw the horrifying whip marks on the man’s body and his
twisted bones, he couldn’t help but feel a chill in his heart. These orcs were too cruel. From the looks of it, they were enjoying torturing these humans.
Loli raised her hand, and a faint platinum light emerged from her hand. Then, she waved her hand gently, and the platinum light ball left her palm like a light balloon.
The ball of light flowed like water to his chest and filled his entire body. The wounds on the man’s body healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. The broken bones were also corrected by a mysterious force. In the
end, apart from his dirty and tattered clothes, the man’s skin returned to normal without a single scar.
The only regret was that the man’s missing ear did not regrow. Instead, it was replaced by an ear hole. The skin on the surface was smooth and intact, as if it was a natural defect.
Miraculous! Yan Chong carefully watched the entire treatment without missing a single detail. This was the divine spell—Holy Heal, and it’s a magic spell.
Although it was not expensive to duplicate this Grade C skill, Yan Chong did not duplicate it at that time. This was because he had learned through his Inheritance Knowledge that the healing spells of the Endless
Mainland could only be used by Priests. This was a special spell bestowed by the Gods.
Priests, on the other hand, had to learn and master the prayers of the Gods. They had to sincerely give up their faith in order to receive the blessings of the Gods.
This meant that one could only become a Priest if one was sincere enough. At the same time, obtaining the feedback of the Gods meant that one no longer had any secrets in front of the Gods..
