Things became tense, the goblins began to surround the orcs to encircle. While the orcs looked at them impatiently.
Just like what Goku said the orcs are really eager to test their strength on enemies other than beasts without intelligence.
With a large spike club in his hand, Swa smirked at his prey. His red eyes seemed to sparkle waiting for the blood to be spilled.
Swa only needs one command from Moku and he will immediately attack.
However Moku ordered otherwise in a very calm voice, "Swa, Laya, Zalthu, lower your weapons. We are here to negotiate not to fight"
Moku stood up and adjusted his clothes casually. His calm movements didn't look like someone being surrounded by dozens of heavily armed monsters.
"I am the chief of the orc tribe, KuMoku!" Moku spoke his name and title with great authority.
"Ku? so you are the strongest orc?" The voice from behind the bushes was heard again.
"That's right. Why are you hiding from behind the bushes? Who am I talking to? Show yourself!" Moku ordered loudly.
"Why should I show myself if you order so? Do you want to take me prisoner? or do you think I'm stupid?" the voice from behind the bushes sounded more alert.
"What do you mean? Do goblins have no manners? I have already proclaimed my majestic name. It is appropriate that you also answer by telling me your name.
And I am the chief of the tribe as well as a Ku. Am I not entitled to meet with whom I will speak? What if it turns out that I'm talking to an ordinary goblin? isn't that an insult to the orc race?
I'm sorry to say this, even though goblins are weaker than orcs, you are still monsters. So you still have to submit to the law only the strong are in power and only the strong can talk to the strong.
Are you guys so cowardly as to appoint some weak goblin to talk to the strongest orc?" Moku spat out sarcastic words.
The satire said that the goblin race didn't know about monster manners where only the strongest could lead and only the strongest could talk to each other on an equal footing.
In fact, this law has existed since the time the orc ancestor was still alive. It could be said that the orcs were the strongest race of monsters so when they reigned in the Bog forest, they made this law and obeyed by all the monster species that existed at that time.
However, after the massacre by the mages, the orc race disappeared and only a few young orcs remained. Even so the monster species still follow the law because it fits perfectly fit into the cruel and harsh Bog forest ecosystem.
All the goblins didn't know what to say, because indeed their leader looked weak because he didn't dare to show himself and speak directly in front of the orc leader.
The orcs chuckled, they lowered their weapons and behaved more calmly. They no longer cared about the goblins surrounding them.
If the goblins attacked and killed one of them the name of the goblin tribe would be tarnished.
Even though their race was weaker than other races, the leader of that race still had to proclaim his name when meeting the leaders of other races.
This is not only a matter of the strength of the tribe, but a symbol of pride of the tribe itself. By not proclaiming his name, the leader of the tribe is tantamount to saying that they are ashamed of their own race.
"I'm not weak!! I'm just being careful!!" the voice sounded clearer.
From the bushes came a goblin that looked smaller than the others. Her body looks slimmer with big eyeballs. Her skin was smooth green with no wrinkles, she looked more like a doll than a fighter.
From the smell on its body, people could tell that this goblin was a woman. This made the orcs even more odd because usually the female goblins were weaker than the males.
They stared at the goblin who had just come out of hiding with interested eyes. They wanted to know how strong this goblin was, 'does she have the power like Nevare?' asked the orcs in their hearts.
"Then speak your name!" Moku smirked.
The goblin gritted its teeth and shouted loudly "My name is Tam, future goblin chief and strongest Ku candidate!!"
"YEAAAAHHHH!!!" All the goblins shouted loudly at Tam's majestic name.
"Candidate? where are the chief and Ku goblins at the moment?" Moku asked.
"That's none of your business!! Why did you come to our tribe?" Tam asked in a threatening tone.
"Well.. I heard you guys want to attack us.. ah before that.. I brought gifts for the goblin tribe.. Zalthu gave them" Moku ordered Zalthu.
Zalthu took the bag he had been carrying all this time and stepped forward. Just as he was about to approach Tam, a goblin stopped him then stretched out one hand.
Zalthu handed the bag to the goblin, then backed away and returned to his original position. The goblin checked the contents of the bag before handing it over to Tam after confirming the contents were harmless.
"It's the fur of a giant gorilla in a swamp" Moku smiled.
"Why did you give us gorilla fur?" Tam is confused.
"The gorilla is 6 meters tall with shockwave punching abilities, is able to make armor from its bones, and has an ultrasonic roar. If it is classified according to human classification then it is classified as a gold tier mutated animal!" Moku puff his chest proudly.
"Impossible!! the orcs can't possibly defeat a gold tier danger mutated animal! You are too few in number. You must have just found the carcass somewhere. No that's impossible too! You must be just lying!" Tam shook his head in disbelief.
It seems that the goblins also know the human classification of mutated animals.
After asking Lina to make new clothes for himself, the Stuga fur that Moku brought was still a lot of excess. Moku took the initiative to bring it as a gift to the goblins.
Stuga's fur would symbolize the orcs' power, wealth, and generosity to the goblin tribes he would encounter. Moku hopes this gift will give him the effect that he wants.
And it seems that hope has come true.
Moku's smile grew wider "Who said the orcs defeated him.. I defeated him.. alone!"
Tam became silent and her eyes widened, in a disapproving voice she said,
"That's impossible!! You're just bragging!! Even though you look different from other orcs you are still an orc! You can't possibly have that much power! Only mages can defeat a gold tier mutated animal!" Tam shook her head rejecting Moku's statement.
She even thought that Moku had gone mad and was delusional about defeating a gold tier danger mutated animal.
"HAHAHAHA!! Is it true that only a mage can defeat a gold tier danger mutated animal? You underestimate our species, a monster species..
I will show how powerful the monster species are! Bhimasuta Form Active!"
BOOM!! suddenly the air changed, each of them felt an overwhelming power flowing from Moku's body.
Tribal gold tattoos crept up Moku's body out of the Bhimasuta Belt, within seconds his entire body was covered with tribal gold tattoos.
The orcs who first saw Moku's Bhimasuta Form after his second evolution looked amazed and couldn't wait to evolve too.
But their joy did not spread to the other goblins. At this moment they felt an immense power standing before them.
Their knees were shaking and their brains were filled with danger alarms telling them to run away from the place but their bodies were too scared to move.
So they can only kneel with pale faces and trembling lips.
Tam's eyes widened in disbelief. Her body shivered with fear, she felt death drawing closer to her.
She imagined what would happen if the goblin tribe attacked the orcs as they planned. If the orcs had power like Moku.. no.. even if only Moku had this much power then he could slay all the goblins with ease.
"Did you believe it now?" Moku asked with a mocking grin.
Moku's eyes looked sharp with ridicule and an implied sense of pride overflowing from within.
As Tam was about to kneel there was the sound of sticks and stones clanking from behind her.
"Enough!!" an old voice sounded from inside the cave.
The sound of footsteps and the ticking of sticks drew closer.
From the mouth of the cave came a goblin holding a stick which look like a walking cane, he looked older than the other goblins.
His green eyes look so deep, showing calm, wisdom, and a lot of life experience. Maybe he was the oldest monster Moku had ever seen.
Moku whispered in Zalthu's ear who was next to him "Zalthu, do you know him?" Moku asked.
"Yes I know him, he is Hoddurt, goblin shaman, I heard he was already alive even before the massacre of the orc tribes by the mage" Zalthu replied.
"KuMoku, sorry for Tam's impudence, he is still young and inexperienced. We'd better continue our conversation in the cave, soon the night will come, it will be more dangerous if we stay outside" Hoddurt said in a calm tone with a smile on his lips.
Datuak Sri Maharajo said everyone who smiled when he was in a state of urgency was either crazy or he was hiding something that could turn things around.
So it can be concluded that these two people are very dangerous, so we must face them with great caution, because we do not know what they will do next.
Moku returned Hoddurt's smile with a smile too "Oh it's okay, I'm also young and inexperienced, it's good if we continue this conversation in the cave"
Moku deactivated his Bhimasuta Form and walked past the line of goblins. Nothing stood in his way, the goblins avoided Moku in fear.
Swa, Laya, and Zalthu followed Moku from behind. Swa didn't forget to laugh at a goblin who peed his pants in fear with the aura of Moku's Bhimasu Form.
Tam swallowed her saliva and forgot that she had just been humiliated by Moku. She hasn't lost yet and she doesn't want to lose, she can still take revenge for Moku's actions during the conversation in the cave.
Moku saw Tam who came back from adversity with renewed vigor. He praised this future goblin chieftain in his heart for her unyielding attitude.
They walked after Hoddurt into the cave.
