《Legend of the Evil Hero》Reality and Sorcery
Advertisement
Orcs, a race that is created by the Evil God. Towering between 6 to 8 feet, they usually bears a greenish skin, prominent fangs, and grotesque appearance.
They once dominated the lands during the Holy war but later they were continuously defeated and exctinct by summoned heroes.
And upon their loss in the holy war they fleeted to a massive canyon that later on named after their lord—The Orcish Grand Canyon.
Because of the rarity of female orcs, their reproduction heavily relies on mating with other races. No matter which race it is, the outcome is always the same—an orc.
“Stoppp...Don'ttt...uhggg...Nooooo.”
A weak, almost fainted voice of female echoes is the depths of the abandoned mines.
Because of enhanced hearing of elves, the girl in dirty and almost unrecognized outfit for magicians is suffering. No matter how she put her hands over it, the sounds always breaks through.
She was trembling hard, because she knew that along with the other captives in the small room they'll be the next ones. Her earrings made of zircon is moving vigorously hanging in her ear. Everyone in that room is the same as her, holding on their knees, some are crying, others lost sanity. Only because of her elven spirits why she can endure to let out the warm moisture between her legs.
She was just a zircon tier adventurer and yet why did she suffer such horrible fate?. Thoughts flows in her mind while she recalls everything that happened.
It was just a month since she leaves the elven city and travel to the human realms in order to become an adventurer. Her main reason on becoming one, is no other than the summoned heroes.
She want to meet or at least see that year's summoned hero so that is why on the month of the hero summoning she chooses to become an adventurer at the same time.
Because of her natural kindness and vast knowledge for sorcery she immediately befriended to an all-human party consisting of a knight, ranger,and a supporter priest. No matter how you look at it the party is well-balanced in so many ways, the knight takes all the damage as the vanguard while the supporter priest heals him, she and the ranger will take out the enemies using their range.
Everythings is going fine at first but because of their repeated drills in the northern meadows of the fortress everyone in that party decided to take a break.
On the day of their break, the elf sorcerer wandered in the guild and sees a quest for rescuing captives of the orcs found in south of the fortress. She hurriedly picks the quest without consulting to her personal guild receptionist about the informations.
The bronze tier knight and the priest both agreed to their quest in the grand canyon both knows nothing about the area. Unfortunately, the silver rank, the highest among the party, ranger was not in her house the time they came to invite her. In the end they choose to proceed with just the three of them.

Right at the entrance of the abandoned mines, the Orc scout easily spotted them in broad daylight and immediately called for his fellows. From there on they were easily outnumbered.
The orcs tortured the knight in every way they knew then eat him afterwards. The same thing happened to the priest, orcs desecrated his body treating it like a child's toy and end up eating the acolyte. That all happened while she was there, watching as the foul creatures made fun of her companions.
She fights will all her might but captured easily, she was surprise that the orcs didn't torture her nor ate her but they placed her in a cold dark room with any other female captives that they were supposed to rescue.
And as her moments in that room pass, her knowledge and hearings explain everything.
The orcs is using the female captives as vessel for their offsprings. She cried countless times there, but it will change nothing. Her fate is already sealed.
Just about when she finished recalling while eyes shut. The door of the room where they are placed slowly opened.
The door revealed a human like figure standing 7 feet more or less holding a lamp.
Its filthy eyes scanned every girls in that room.
Upon meeting the appearance of the elf sorcerer the Orc produced a satisfied grin with eyes narrowed.
The Orc grabbed the arm of the elf sorcerer and but she fights back by moving randomly.
“No! Please No!”
Her eyes starts to moist once again.
But orcs are known for their merciless behavior, so the Orc aggressively drags the girl while holding her in arm.
The elf sorcerer cried, called for help, begged for mercy, and shout as loud as she could but no one is there to help.
In the dark paths of the mines only the lamp carried by the Orc illuminates the surroundings.
They reached a certain room in no time. In there four stark naked womans appeared in her sight that can be compared to a corpse. But she knew that all of them is alive.
The Orc hanged the lamp in the ceiling, then he lifted the elf sorcerer by her arm into a certain table.
The muscular right hand of the Orc sealed the movement of the slender left hand of the young elf sorcerer.
The orc lifted his left hand in attempt to remove the remaining garments of the elf girl.
“No! Please! Please! Stop! N—”
Just before the orc's hand reaches its destination an arrow from behind strike it, driving the hand onto the nearby mine post.
The Orc look at the direction in surprise but only to find his body impaled by a spear. It all happened in just a blink of an eye—no the Orc didn't even blink.
When the spear that is thrust in his body was pulled out, bloods sprayed and splattered in every corner of the room.

“Hwuurrgg? Grruuughh..?”
The Orc said something locking gaze with the human behind him,falling sideways with his hand still secured by the arrow. And because of his great weight the arrow shaft broke.
The human that killed him was surprised as if he understand the last words of the dying creature. The lamp revealed the identity of the figure, a handsome red haired boy showing of a shot opened cyan eyes still looking at the fallen creature. The boy wears a black undergarment under his light armor, some of its parts have crimson liquids and an armlet made of zircon is proudly hanging on his left biceps.
Elf sorcerer can't even produce a proper sound at the time as her body was full of surpise—and orc's blood.
The boy blinked slowly then meet her gaze. The elf sorcerer can't move a muscle that time.
With eyes narrowed the boy decrease the distance of their faces with now him in the spot of the Orc earlier. Then with his right hand he touch the cheeks of the elf sorcerer. The warmth of his hands comforted the almost broken elf.
“Hey?! Yuji! What are you doing?”
“Oh, I'm sorry. I'm just checking if she's alive.”
A voice speaks from the back with an angry tone. And the boy immediately pulled off his hand then replied in a low-pitched voice.
The elf sorcerer yet again surprise upon hearing the familiar voice of the girl. When the boy in front of her move a little, a girl with brown braided hair and has her cheek puffed while still looking at the boy ferociously appeared.
The human girl that is holding her bow is the same human girl she befriended months ago. She was a part of their party, their ranger, their leader.
The elf cried once again as she tried to called her friend. Now she couldn't restrain her tears—no what's the point of retraining it, she cried harder, harder than earlier.
“..Li...Lily..”
The elf sorcerer cannot even speak proper words as the great sadness engulf her—no perhaps it was joy, joy because someone she knew save her from being violated.
The red haired boy gave her a surprise expression when he heard her voice.
“You know her?” he asked to the ranger behind him.
When the ranger get a clearer view of the girl in the table covered in blood. She put a hand on her mouth as if she was trying to hold of something.
“Oh god...Chiyo..you're Chiyo right?”
The red haired boy step aside, then approach the other womens lying on the floor. Then the young ranger rush to the elf sorcerer and embrace her immediately, regardless of the blood.
“Ye..yes..I am..”
“What are you doing here?”
“Som..something terrible happened...the others are dead...because..because of me!”
The ranger tighten her grip upon hearing the words that bit by bit escaped the mouth of the elf. The words of reality.
“It's okay, it's okay. Everything's fine now, your safe..”
After a few moments passed when the red haired boy already finished giving some kind of an unused sheets to the naked womens lying on the ground, he face the two girls that is having their reunion.
“Hey, wipe the blood in your body. Before it gets dry.”
His voice was delivered in low pitch but also has some parts of cold and blunt. The two girl who's still embracing each other look at him both with surprise expression.
The ranger just forced a smile in reply to the young boy.
“He's right”
The ranger gets the sheet from the boy and help the elf to wipe her body. The boy tried to recover the arrow but clicked his tounge when he'd seen its condition.
“Lily, this was the last one right?”
“Oh..yes..”
“Lets pull off for now, I think the silk we've got is enough.”
“Yes sir!”
Elf sorcerer was amaze looking at the normal conversation of the two. And then she remembered something.
“There are.. others in the room not far...from here.”
“Is that so? Are there remaining orcs aside this one?”
The one who replied to her was the red haired boy. She shooked her head telling that was the last one. And then in response again the boy produce an empty smile while thinking
[How will I going to transport them...]
Afterwards, the red haired boy's quest that was only for the spider silk turned out saving 14 female captive, slaying 17 orcs, and clearing the abandoned mines in just a single night.
Luckily they spotted a caravan of merchants nearby the Grand canyon that is heading to their destination— the great fortress of Aldebaran.
It was dawn when he and the bunch of womens arrive at the guild in Aldebaran, of course everyone there was surprise.
Chattering how did a zircon, the lowest tier of all manage to do it in a single night.
The elf sorcerer that is covered by a white sheet with some red stains on it glanced at the red-haired boy, and with a weak smile on her lips she said.
“I still have the 3 quest papers for the 13 abducted womens.”
The boy let's out a sigh and smiled in reply.
He knew that the bounty for the rescue quest is always worth of gold coins, that is how it is always for it.
In his mind he's thinking of what will he do this day.
[Guess I'll just rent a room in the tavern and sleep and sleep and sleep.]
