A land of orcs with more men and fewer women

Lilith's christening day banquet is in full swing here.

On the other side of the city, Kurta's house in the west didn't seem to be peaceful either.

"Crack!" The sound of the water glass shattering on the ground was heard.

Diana casually threw the glass of water on the bedside towards her husband Mars.

Mars held the little female beast in his arms and dodged in a flash.

When Diana saw that Mars had not been hit, she became even more angry: "How dare you hide?" She picked up another candlestick and threw it at her.

"Bang" Mars did not dodge this time, and the candlestick made a muffled sound when it hit him. He stood sideways to protect the little female beast and received the blow firmly.

But even if she hit him, seeing how hypocritical he was to protect the little female beast without saying anything, Diana felt a fire in her heart again.

She held back her anger and asked, "Do you still have the nerve to hug the little female beast?"

Mars was speechless.

Diana continued to ask: "You know the baptism day of the little female beast Quinta, why didn't you tell it in advance?"

Mars was silent.

Diana was furious: "Don't you know how great it is that the little female beast can be baptized by a high priest together with the little female beast of Kunta? Don't you care about such an important thing at all?"

Mars remained silent.

Diana picked up the things at hand and threw them all towards Mars. She yelled: "Are you? Are you?! Are you still in love with Quinta?!"

This time, Diana didn't want to wait for Mars' reply anymore. She asked angrily in a low voice: "If you like it, why? Why do you want to be my chief husband? Ah? Why?" As she spoke, her voice became more and more serious. The lower he got, the more he finally covered his face with his hands and cried softly.

Mars stood there, holding the little female beast in his arms, motionless, like a stone statue.

I wonder if it’s at dusk when orcs are more emotionally sensitive and fragile?

Perhaps, Diana's cry is.

Mars, who stood there and turned into a stone statue, was the same.

In Mars' mind, he recalled his youth.

He was childhood sweethearts with Diana and Quinta. As one of the male orcs from the branch, he accompanied the two sisters of the Kurta family to the temple to study and grow up.

Mars was the best among the male orcs of the same period, and the same was true among the female orcs. In this way, the two orcs cherished each other and quietly came together.

But what happened next? Why did you get separated?

Was it when his mother told him that the Lord had chosen him to be the chief husband of his heir?

Do not!

Earlier...perhaps they had already separated when Kunta gave up the competition for the Kurta family's heir in advance.

He has vowed to become the male master of the main branch since he was a child. But then, everything fell into chaos.

Mars looked at the increasingly dim room and felt weak, and couldn't help but tighten his arms holding the little female beast.

Deanna's cries trailed off and she took a deep breath. Looking at Mars, who was standing like a stone, at this moment, Diana felt absurd in her heart.

How could she? Why is there a gap between you and your sister Quinta just because of such a male orc?

That was for her sister who voluntarily gave up her position as the head of the family. It was Kunta she had been proud of since she was a child.

Thinking of this, Diana shed tears again in her eyes.

It was as if the dust had been swept away from my heart.

When the first moon rose in the sky, Lilith's baptismal feast came to an end.

The orcs hugged each other and said goodbye.

The apprentices at the Temple in the West of the City also discussed this small banquet in low voices. As they chatted, they had to mention Miru, the popular candidate for assistant priest.

From the first high priest taking disciples to the later assistant priest on the day of baptism.

I have to say that Miru is a good marketer.

But no matter how much you say, the stark reality is now in front of you.

Several orcs who didn't like Miru winked at each other.

Miru's usual supporters seemed to have lost their temper a little now.

Only a young apprentice named Miru said: "Hey... Master Milu has already tried his best. What else can be done?" After saying this, she spread her hands.

Miru, who was in the dark, staggered when he heard this and almost showed his body.

The young apprentice continued: "Please! The assistant priest is finally an intermediate priest - Lord Zhulu! How can this... Lord Miru compete?"

"That's true."

"really."

"Priest Milu is very charming, but..."

Gradually, the topic began to turn to how Miru's strength was failing.

Some young apprentices even brought up many stories about Chen Zhizhi and rotten millet to prove how average Miru's strength was.

In the end, the topic got to the point where Miru was usually stingy and picky, even picking out the gifts the apprentice received first...

Miru was so angry that he glared at the little orc.

He turned around and took another path. But I didn't expect that tonight, he could really be regarded as a hot topic figure.

The orcs in the temple didn't say a few words, but they all wanted to bring him into the conversation.

As a result, Milu had to hide and hide all the way back home from the temple.

I made a mental note for all the orcs.

all!

One after another camel and antelope vehicles left the temple in the west of the city.

Among them was one from the City Lord's Mansion.

At first, because there were camels and antelopes nearby, Butler Hunter held back his words.

When they finally arrived at the city lord's mansion, they were the only one on the street.

Butler Hunter couldn't help but asked Seth curiously: "Master Seth, have you seen everything today?"

Seth didn't know what Hunter was referring to: "Huh?"

Hunter was anxious: "That's Miss Lilith!"

Seth was even more surprised. Didn't they all go to Lilith's baptism day: "Did you see that?"

Hunter curled his lips and stopped talking. When he saw the City Lord's Mansion, he jumped out of the car first and hurriedly went to report to the City Lord.

Seth was left alone, looking at the housekeeper in confusion as he jumped out of the car.

Seth had no choice but to follow Hunter quickly.

After the two orcs arrived at the city lord's study, the city lord was still reviewing documents.

"Come back?" City Lord Ultra asked calmly.

"Yes. Father/City Lord." Seth and Hunter saluted at the same time and replied.

Seeing the city lord, Butler Hunter's original desire to talk endlessly was successfully brought back by reason.

Report everything that happened on today's baptism day to the city lord in detail. No more personal emotions.

Seth glanced at Hunter helplessly.

My thoughts somehow flew back to what it was like today when I saw Lilith's companion stone flying out.

That was a necklace made of sand gold wire, not... the necklace made of kyanite lace weaving that he sent...

"Why doesn't Lilith wear the necklace he gave her? Is it because she doesn't like it?" Seth wondered.

City Lord Ultra on the side was very surprised when he heard Hunter's report: "The little female beast's talent is so outstanding? A vision from God?"

"A vision from God?" Hunter repeated after hearing this statement for the first time.

Seth came to his senses. Was it a vision from God? That rain of petals all over the sky...

Immediately, I remembered that the sand gold thread tied with the companion stone was not pretty at all. It also broke...the quality is not good either.

Just when City Lord Ultra was about to speak, he noticed that his youngest son was distracted. He said "cough" twice before continuing: "I just happened to read it in the family library. It was recorded a long time ago. .”

He once again thought about the vague records he saw at that time, and shook his head slightly: "What good luck. Is the head husband of the Cavendish family Maine?"

Hunter immediately replied: "Yes, sir."

Ultra was really envious at this time, thinking how great it would be if this was the little female beast of Kunta's second husband, his eleventh son Sennasha.

He exclaimed again: "What good luck, Maine Cavendish."

I heard my father repeat it again.

When his words were full of unabashed envy, Seth lowered his head and his face darkened.

Ultra ignored Seth's little mood. He just said: "Seth, you will still have to visit the Cavendish house more in the future."

"Yes, Father." Seth lowered his eyes, his eyes darkened.

My father's plan is obvious, but when I think of Lilith's clear blue eyes...

For the first time, Seth was somewhat repelled by the arrangement of City Lord Ultra.

After receiving the answer, Ultra waved to the two of them, and they said goodbye and left.

Ultra was the only orc left in the study. He thought of Seth's expression just now and sneered after a moment: "He is still a child." He continued to deal with official duties with his head down.
