CH 40.2

“Sir Bash. I intend to fight to restore the pride of all the races of the Federation. Please take my hand and fight with me.” Carrot said and extended her hand. Her ample breasts trembled and shook, which was very painful to the eyes. Maybe this was the succubus’ way of proposing. When she asked him to fight with her the other day, was she proposing to him as well?. “To tell you the truth, we don’t have much time. So I’ll give you a detailed explanation and strategy later. First, let’s kill this lying woman and this joke of a prince and get out of here.”

But Bash’s response was obvious. He regretted having raised her expectations, but he was going to marry Silviana, and he owed Nazar a great debt. He could not kill her.

“That’s something I can’t do.”

“Huh?”

It was hard for Bash to see Carrot’s surprised expression. Was that the look he got every time he was rebuffed?

“Why? But you said the other day that we would fight shoulder to shoulder again!”

“I owe this man a debt.”

“A debt…!”

“That’s right.”

“So you accept it!? You accept the status quo!”

“What’s wrong with the status quo?”

It was an honest question.

“The succubi are starving now, and even our children are! It’s the same with the orcs! In fact, after the war, many warriors left the country because they were dissatisfied with the Orc King’s rule! Many proud warriors! Even Gagan, who had reached the rank of Greatchief, left the country because he couldn’t stay there, because he couldn’t even sleep with a woman! He told me that he would be willing to become my slave if he could only sleep with one! A succubus like me! And this is the result!”

Bash bowed his head slightly at the sudden change of subject. It might be true that the orcs were poorer than in the past, compared to the time of the war. If you asked him if the children were starving, he would not deny it. But the children had starved before. It had been like that since the war. It was also true that many warriors became stray orcs because they regretted the current situation. Many left the land of the orcs because they could not follow the decisions of the orc king and could not accept their defeat.

“I understand Gagan’s feelings, but…”

He knew how Gagan felt. The blue orc was one of the first to become a stray orc and leave the country. He didn’t ask why, but he knew that orcs left either for battle or for women. Even Bash would want to be Carrot’s slave if he weren’t a virgin, or if he weren’t in a position of responsibility like being a hero, or if Carrot weren’t a succubus, so that if he lost his virginity to her, he wouldn’t become a magical warrior. And Gagan fought, lost, and died to possess Carrot. It was an act of disobedience to the Orc King’s rule, but it was a very Orc-like act, and a fitting end for an Orc.

“This is what it means to be defeated.”

“I see. You are the usual Sir Bash, and you have come all this way with determination…”

Determination. Yes, Bash had come here today to f̲u̲c̲k̲ Silviana. Her position as a princess was perfect for a hero’s wife, and he could return to his country with dignity. When he arrived in his homeland, Silviana would be pregnant with a son. As a Beastwoman, she should be able to bear five or six children. And Bash would be able to sleep with her without shame.

“No matter what I say, will it be impossible to change your mind?”

“That is true.”

“Even if I tell you that the demon king Gediguz will return?”

“Even with that.”

It was a strange way to put it, but even if Gediguz was here and now, Bash’s determination would remain the same. He would defeat her and keep Silviana.

“I understand… even though we follow different paths, I respect you as a warrior.”

“I also consider you a warrior worthy of respect.”

“Even if I have to defeat you, I will not abandon my path.”

“I see…”

As for Bash, it was a simple process. If an Orc wanted a woman, he would fight for her and get her. If Carrot wanted Bash and challenged him to a fight, Bash would fight her and win the fight.

“Former Commander-in-Chief of the First Battalion of the Queen of the Succubus Nation, Carrot of the Hissing Voice.”

“Former warrior of the Boulder Company, Orc Kingdom. Bash, the Orc Hero.” Bash said his name, he said it with the greatest of pride. Then he shouted, “Graaaaaaaaaaaooo!”

Bash’s war cry began the battle.
