A land of orcs with more men and fewer women

Lilith held on to her last bit of luck and looked at the city lord Ultra with a dazed and expectant look: "Lord City Lord, what do you think of Seth's oath?"

When the city lord Ottla heard what Lilith said, he glanced at her suspiciously and said, "You are not going to take advantage of Seth's good relationship with you to exempt Seth from your oath of loyalty, are you?"

City Lord Ultra sneered: "The reason why the oath made to each other is called an unbreakable oath is because it has no loopholes."

"I advise you not to be naive." City Lord Ottla glanced at Lilith, "Don't think that you can win the position of city lord by taking advantage of loopholes and playing tricks."

The reason why the city lord Ottra was able to successfully rise to the top among his brothers was that he had witnessed all kinds of tricks used by evil spirits.

In his eyes, Lilith's little thoughts were simply crude and despicable.

At this time, Lilith had no intention of arguing with the city lord Ultra.

Lilith no longer cared what the city lord Ultra thought of her.

What Lilith cares about is what the city lord Ultra thinks of Seth.

Lilith didn't feel sorry for not giving Seth her full loyalty.

But there is no doubt that Seth is still an important person to her.

Lilith had no choice but to not care about his situation.

She suppressed the nameless anger that was about to burst out of her throat, and asked again in a hoarse voice: "Lord City Lord... What do you think of Seth's oath?"

City Lord Ottla: "What do you think?"

"Well, what do you think?" Lilith stared at him.

City Lord Ottla turned his eyes away. He was very impatient with the little female orc in front of him who didn't know how to read the orcs' expressions and lacked etiquette. "I don't have any opinion."

A small spark of hope instantly grew in Lilith's heart because of the words of City Lord Ultra.

Does the Lord Mayor mean that he has no intention of making any demands or restrictions on Seth's oath?

Lilith's heart suddenly returned to its original place. She planned to convey her refusal to the city lord as she had originally thought.

City Lord Ottla seemed to have thought of something, and his impatience disappeared. He suddenly smiled, with an unknown meaning in his eyes: "Seth will become an excellent city lord." City Lord Ottla smiled at Lilith, "Isn't it?"

"Huh?" Lilith did not follow the thoughts of City Lord Ultra.

Will Seth become the lord of Lila City? Lilith was happy about the news.

City Lord Otla looked at Lilith's joy and smiled even more: "Really? Lilith, do you also think Seth will be an excellent city lord?"

Lilith nodded in agreement, Seth indeed would be.

Although Lilith didn't understand why the city lord had become so friendly and what he said didn't make sense, she had no doubt that Seth would be an excellent city lord.

"So, you will help him. Right? Lilith." City Lord Ottra coaxed.

"Me? Help? Him?" Lilith's face was filled with confusion.

City Lord Ottla smiled: "Well, you help him."

"Me? How can I help?" Lilith looked herself up and down. It was not that she looked down on herself, but she really didn't think she had the ability to help Seth become the city lord.

The city lord Ottla was calm and composed: "If you become the city lord, you will help him become the city lord."

Lilith shook her head: "How is this possible?" She would not become the lord of Lila City, nor would she agree to the conditions proposed by Lord Ottra.

"How is that impossible? I am the mayor of Lila City and the person in power of the Gusili family." When Lord Ottra said this, his expression twisted slightly, but soon returned to normal.

Perhaps it was because he was in front of an insignificant female orc like Lilith that the city lord Ultra showed a different appearance from before.

Not only did his patience increase, he also talked more than usual.

Lilith felt uneasy. She looked up at the city lord Ultra.

In the bright corridor, the city lord's tall figure is more visible.

His series of subtle expressions, including curling his lips, pouting, and disdain, all appeared clearly in front of Lilith's eyes.

Lilith didn't understand whether it was because the light was too bright that the Lord Mayor's expression was so obvious, or whether the Lord Mayor himself was no longer willing to hide in front of a little orc like her.

No matter which possibility it is, facing this city lord who is already a stranger and widely praised in the city.

Beads of cold sweat ran down Lilith's back.

"You are a female beastman, and you have the bloodline of a side branch. As long as I agree, you can move into the main branch." City Lord Ottla smiled as if he remembered something, "I will support you to become the next city lord."

The city lord Ultra stared into Lilith's eyes and said, "As long as you remain loyal to my son Seth as agreed."

The abnormal behavior of the city lord made Lilith feel that she could not delay any longer. She had to express her refusal to interrupt the city lord's words so as to avoid hearing something she shouldn't hear.

Unfortunately, City Lord Ultra did not give Lilith such an opportunity.

City Lord Ottla turned around and walked to a terrace on the corridor.

There was no other way, Lilith had to follow the city lord with stiff steps.

From the terrace, you can clearly see the family banquet taking place below.

However, due to the angle, the orcs below could only vaguely see the terrace.

In a corner of the banquet, musicians played passionately, and candlelight of varying heights illuminated clusters of bushes.

The orcs gathered in groups of three or four, talking and laughing.

Luxurious jewelry, exquisite fabrics...

Almost all the patriarchs of the upper and middle-class families in the city of Lila gathered here.

The city lord's hand rested lightly on the railing.

Standing on the third floor of the annex building, he looked down from a distance at the orcs coming and going and socializing below.

My eyes wandered over the orcs' conversation partners and their expressions in the dark...

City Lord Otla pressed his hand slightly harder on the handrail, with a power that could easily control the fate of other orcs.
