Build a Human Empire by Creating Clans

chapter 23



“Isn’t it because it’s the only way to advance to the Great Plains?”

Just as the Great Plains were the gateway to human and heterogeneous civilizations, the Nehrup Plain was also the gateway through which Orcs could advance to the Great Plains.

Occupying the plains of Nehrup made it easier for the Ugdash to advance into the plains and prevented other tribes from moving to and from the plains.

“The gnome has settled here since the Great Plains was forbidden by the agreement of the representative system. I waited and waited for the contract to be released.”

“Is the reason you were aiming for the Great Plains because of humans?”

“okay.”

Griff laughed out loud.

“You really like humans.”

Ughdash was an eccentric orc.

While other orcs were blinded by the splendid civilization of elves and dwarves, he alone set his sights on human civilization beyond the Great Plains.

“He has a trick unlike an Orc. I know it’s easier and safer to hunt down a mean monkey than risk your life fighting a dwarf or dwarf.”

So, even before the entry to the Great Plains was allowed, they secretly sent scouts down to prepare for the establishment.

It must have been around that time that he met Pinto, and it must have been around that time that he discovered the gold vein.

‘The bastard was right. Because they actively targeted human civilization before anyone else, they formed the largest group of Orcs at the start of play.’

But now it’s a long time before the start of play.

He couldn’t even migrate to the Great Plains.

The gold mine was also stolen from me.

‘If you endure like this in Nehrup Plains, you will only destroy yourself. When it rains, they move to the east to avoid it, and they rob the surrounding tribes of the lacking supplies to survive, but it never lasts long.’

There was no way Ughdash was unaware of this.

‘That’s why I ignored the representative’s eviction order and endured. Now that they know that Baguku, who was managing the gold mine, is dead, they will attack me.’

I looked at the people who accompanied me.

27 people were following me.

All rode horses, and were armed with their summons.

The armament is arbitrary, from cloth to heavy armor.

However, the lowest level of these is 36.

Considering that John Doreen, Earl was 29, it is a significant gap.

‘It’s not just the time reduction that has improved as the ratings go up.’

[The probability of creating lower-grade followers is reduced.]

[The probability of creating a high-grade follower increases.]

Most of these were created after Gerhard was created.

It was a family member created after the rank of the family creation skill reached 2 stars.

There was no F-class low level that was occasionally summoned in 1 star.

‘It’s not enough if there are too many numbers. Considering the future, the minimum grade should be raised.’

If the skill is the highest grade, what will be the minimum grade of the family?

Also, what is the skill cooldown?

When I thought about it, I naturally smiled.

“oh···.”

Griff narrowed his eyes slightly.

When I crossed the hill, I saw a sandstorm blowing in front of me.

The dark brown sand was blowing hard in an oval shape.

And I saw a crowd running there.

“That one, riding a wolf?”

“Wolf cavalry. Think of it like a human riding a horse.”

The pack on wolves rode into the sandstorm and came out the other side.

Some of them were tossed into the air by the storm and then crushed to the ground.

“——!”

The sound of the orcs shouting excitedly could be heard from here.

They have no entertainment and are full of heads.

A life-and-death prank would be more fun than anything else.

“Hoho…”

There was a contrast between Griff with a bewildered expression, Gerhard scratching his chin with interest, and Calliope, whose expression did not change at all.

‘As expected, the gathering is fast.’

I took my eyes off the cavalry and saw the village a short distance away.

The rough-hewn huts were full, but the size of Olymus and Turan was incomparable even to the naked eye.

“A rough estimate seems to be over 7,000. You got it quickly.”

“Because I would have collected them as soon as I knew that Baguku was dead.”

They are nomads who lead a nomadic life.

One by one, looting is a daily occurrence.

A tribe waiting for when to plunder.

As soon as the call-up order was issued, they would have gathered together.

‘That’s not all yet.’

“Wow… how can they reproduce like that in this beggar land?”

“Isn’t it Pinto’s achievement?”

“If selling your own people this much is a talent, then it is a talent.”

I sighed at Griff’s joke.

At least that number had stopped growing because of Nehrup’s barrenness and the lack of full-fledged operation of the gold mine.

It was new blood compared to the forces of Ugdash in my memory.

“Edar.”

Calliope looked straight ahead and called me.

wealth—-!

The horn sounded.

“coming.”

Someone in the crowd found us.

Sand rose in the village and the movement of the wolf cavalry changed.

The group that ran back into the sandstorm turned this way.

We stopped talking and watched the crowd.

“What would you like to do?”

Gerhard grabbed the spear and showed his teeth, letting out a laugh.

Griff patted his palms and cleared his throat.

The rest of the family, including Hilde, were armed.

There was a sense of exhilaration ahead of the battle.

The servants seized the reins with the momentum to rush immediately.

“Calliope.”

At my call, Calliope dismounted and walked forward.

Taking ten paces alone, she placed her left hand on the scabbard of her waist and lowered her right, and stood still for a moment, waiting for hundreds of horsemen to approach.

She grabbed the sword when the red eyes of the orc in the lead began to appear.

A flash— a burst of light, then gone in an instant.

A long horizontal line was drawn in the cracked ground between Calliope and the cavalry.

Not a drought, but really like the ground was cut.

The wolves in the lead were startled and stopped with their front paws and fell over.

The following wolf collided with the leader, and mayhem ensued.

The orcs rolled on the floor and quickly came to their senses and stood up, but they could not cross the line drawn in front of them and stopped.

Silence passed.

“Griff, raise my voice. So that things can hear it.”

Grief’s gestures generated magic.

My neck was wrapped in magical energy and I felt a chill.

“Where is the foremost among you?”

The orcs looked at each other and carefully looked behind them.

Looking back, I widened the distance and opened the entrance.

An orc walked through them.

【Lv. 83]

“human. Who the hell are you.”

‘As expected, the level is still quite low.’

At the time of the main story, his level is 92.

Even the appearance should have more scars and wrinkles than now.

It was a long time before the main story, so he was young and weak.

The Iron Fog tribe was just a tribe with enough power.

‘Still, considering the short life of a pig, he’s middle-aged.’

I raised the corners of my mouth high and nodded.

“Don’t you know?”

The orc’s already stiff expression hardened even more.

“…a person who deceived the representative system.”

“And you are the ugdash of the steel fog.”

Ughdash stopped.

“human. This is my land. Why did you come?”

“He also knows and asks.”

“…”

I said looking up at the cloudy sky.

“The rainy season is about to start again. I don’t think there’s any need to waste time, but what should I do?”

“What do you mean?”

“Here is my great warrior.”

He stretched out his hand and pointed at Calliope.

“You and I, put what we have on each other and let’s finish the job before it rains.”

Orc’s habit of deciding everything with power.

The tradition created by that habit was a duel.

A duel in which the winner takes everything of the loser.

Ugdash frowned as he looked at Calliope and me.

“You are human. humans are not humans You don’t even have the right to fight me.”

“Really? Aren’t you scared?”

Ughdash growled, fangs baring.

“I am not afraid of anything!”

“I guess so.”

I snorted and let out a low laugh.

“But not anymore. You will be afraid of humans.”

He clenched his fist with his outstretched hand and lowered it down, as if to strike it down.

Then the attendants kicked off their horses and ran away.

overwhelmed

###

Less than thirty members of his household collided with a crowd of thousands.

Three of them withdrew to protect me, so there were actually only 24 of them.

On the other hand, there were over 7,000 people fighting against the family, and the first group to deal with the family was the cavalry.

【Lv. 29]

【Lv. 27]

【Lv. 30]

Each one is as strong as Count Dorin or more.

The number was in the hundreds, no, close to a thousand, and all rode wolves, not horses.

Lehup’s wolf was as big as a horse and accelerated faster than a horse.

There’s even a weapon called teeth and claws.

“Kill!”

As he got closer to his followers, the orc pulled the reins.

In response, the wolf kicked off its hind legs and flew away.

It opened its mouth and flashed its long sharp teeth.

If the opponent had been a human, the wolf would have bitten the horse’s neck, and the orc would have cut the knight’s shoulder with an axe.

Fu-wook—

However, the opponent was a member of the family.

“Ouch!”

“Kkeuk!”

The spear pierced the orcs and wolves.

The two of them, skewered, spurred on and flew, floating in the air and looking down at the people who pierced them.

His eyes widened and his mouth opened, trying to say something.

Chew!

The family did not listen and gave strength to the two arms holding the spear and swung it sideways.

The shock caused the two bodies to be pulled out of the window and blown away.

“…!”

The orcs who saw this were startled and hesitated.

How much do they weigh, and you lifted them up and threw them?

It was such a look.

‘I can’t think of my family the same as ordinary people.’

He probably came running thinking of humans who were just prey.

The family was different from the humans who were their prey.

Strength and will, all of them were of different levels.

“Unlike things!”

As Gerhard swung his spear, four or five orcs were torn apart.

An orc pierced by a spear was a cute, ferocious sight.

The flesh was ripped off in chunks and splattered in all directions.

Gerhard let out a scream as his body was soaked in green blood.

“more! More to come!”

There were even orcs who lost their fighting spirit and took a step backwards.

“Ugh… you’re ignorant.”

Grif smiled and raised his right hand high.

“Cover your ears.”

As the right hand clenched into a fist, dark clouds gathered overhead,

Kwakwang—

When he struck his fist, lightning struck.

A large hole has opened in the crowd that has surrounded us.

It was the site of a group of Orc shamans.

They were annihilated by Grif right before they could memorize a group spell and activate it.

And while reciting magic, the condensed magic lost the magician and spread to the surroundings, permeating the bodies of nearby orcs and goblins.

“Ouch!”

“Sue, um…!”

As if he had inhaled toxic gas, he grabbed his neck and collapsed.

The body couldn’t stand it because it accepted too much magical power at once.

It was fortunate that he had stopped breathing, and he could see his body exploding.

Griff looked at this and shrugged his shoulders.

“People have to use their heads. It’s not about running ignorantly.”

“joy! A weakling.”

Gerhard’s movements became more rough at Griff’s provocation.

Despite dealing with dozens of times as many enemies, his family was not pushed back.

On the other hand, it was the people who pushed on, and the orcs and goblins were the ones who put up with numbers and held on.

Aren’t there only dozens of people and thousands of people?

If he was an ordinary human, his movements would become dull due to fatigue.

In order to aim for the moment when the offensive slowed down, the guys used weak fellows as shields and maintained a siege and endured.

“You’re trying.”

I clicked my tongue.

The family does not easily feel fatigue.

It’s not too much to stay up all night for a few days.

Would such people feel fatigue during battle?

Of course, there is no such thing as slow movement.

The guys must have realized it intuitively.

Why, why don’t you get tired? I mean.

‘I wonder what would have changed if I knew the reason.’

I looked up and saw Calliope.

She was stepping forward alone and destroying everything.

A destructive power that even her family would be swept up in if she was by her side.

A single gesture caused an explosion stronger than lightning.

The ground trembled as if an earthquake had occurred, and blood fountains gushed out as if a volcano erupted.

She was superior to anyone in this place.

‘Raeragon, even when dealing with that dwarf, he must have worried about me and couldn’t use his full strength.’

If I was behind you and you fought that way, I would have been caught up.

“I’m afraid I can’t go near you.”

Griff threw a joke as he slipped back and grabbed the reins.

The battle was slowing down due to Calliope’s might.

If you slam it down, there will be an explosion louder than any other shouts and screams. Can you fight while ignoring it?

The group close to Calliope were busy running away, and the group far away didn’t even know that their hearts were stabbing at the sight of her.

Ughdash, who was cunningly watching from behind the group, was horrified to see her.

‘Yeah… you won’t believe it. only a few dozen people. It’s also like monkeys trampling on your superior civilized people.’

The fight, which had been slowing down, stopped as if it had been promised.

All eyes turned to Calliope and Ughdash.

I rode my horse forward slowly.

“’I’m not afraid of anything.’”

Ughdash was taken aback by my words.

“What you said. Ughdash.”

“…”

“But it seems to me that you are more timid than anyone here.”

I raised the corner of my mouth and faced Ughdash.

Ughdash came forward, gritting his teeth loudly.

Calliope blocked the way.

There was a wide open space around the two.

“human. You will have to pay for making me angry.”

Instead of answering, I let out a low laugh.

Laughed at, Ughdash grabbed the ax and ran.

Calliope and Ugdash, the distance between the two narrowed at once.

Caang—

The ax hit the blade, making an ear-piercing metal sound.

Calliope easily received Ugdash’s attack.

I didn’t let it flow like water, but I received it like a wall.

His feet were so motionless that he wondered if they were deeply rooted in the ground.

Even though an orc several heads taller than her had struck with all her might, Calliope stood still and did not react except to move her right hand.

Kkong, kkong- teoong-!

“You are no match.”

Immediately after the confrontation started, Gehard returned to my side and commented.

He shook his head with a shuddering voice as if he were looking at something trivial.

The reaction of the other members of the family, including Grief, was the same.

‘She’s the one who played with even Raeragon, who was only one level lower. There is a gap that is 10 times that then, and it doesn’t make sense if I don’t overwhelm it like this.’

He took a packet of tobacco out of his pocket and put a cigarette in his mouth.

Grif set his index finger on fire and set it on the tobacco.

I inhaled deeply, then exhaled long.

The pungent smell that stung my nose had disappeared a little.

“Ah!”

Ughdash shouted.

Angry at the futile fight, I stopped the attack and hit myself in the chest.

“end?”

Calliope put down her sword and asked.

It was a quiet voice, but one that everyone in the room could hear.
