《Path of Damnation》Day 10: The fear of a 1000 orcs coupled with the fear within
Advertisement
Day 10:
I was walking towards the orc camp, my mind full with ideas.
The path to the camp was open and empty and I could feel nothing at all, I wonder why?
Nonetheless I continued towards the Orc Camp still wary by the unnatural silence I felt.
It felt like things were avoiding me and I could only question why.
I had begun to near the orc camp when I saw that the orcs at the camp appeared to be shaking for some reason.
This interested me, so I snuck around the camp without alerting the Orcs to my presence and came closer to the huge tent which covered much of the camp centre.
What I saw was truly intriguing.
I humongous orc, coloured a deep charcoal colour was feasting on what I could only assume to be orc.
An orc who was a cannibal, huh?
It didn’t matter to me; I simply looked at the orc and studied him carefully
.
I studied the orc known as [Lesser-Demon Orc: Black Tooth] with every fibre of my being.
Him being a lesser demon was surprising. If he was a lesser demon, than what the hell would a imp or it’s like be, Demonic Trash?
He was at least 4 and a half metres tall, with large claws where his hands should be. His feet likewise had humongous claws.
He had one intact beady eye, which appeared lizard like in appearance and where his other should be located was a hideous burn mark.
I wonder who he pissed off. When I thought that I chuckled to myself slightly.
Black Tooth was gorging himself on the remains of a large green ‘thing’. In front of him were the bodies of several dead orcs.
I guess he ate a lot.
As I gazed at him, I wondered who would win in a fight, Kaiser or Black Tooth.
Black Tooth was physically larger, but Kaiser just seemed stronger to me.
As I was contemplating within my mind which of the two was stronger, black tooth had finished eating the piece of orc in his arms, before he looked towards the sealed Bear man cave in front of him.
Black Tooth: “Umthra, I know you can hear me. Acting as if you cant isn’t a smart move” he smirked as he spoke his voice almost human like while using words most orcs couldn’t. I added that fact to the back of my mind ‘Black Tooth is intelligent’. “Umthra surrender already, I promise to treat your people nicely, you know that you can’t fight against me” he then got up as he said this and picked up an orc warrior close to him.

The orc he picked had a face full of pure terror as he realized that he would probably die.
Black Tooth looked like he couldn’t care less about how his companions felt and to demonstrate it he laughed as his subordinate shook in fear, before throwing this poor orc into the opening in the cave.
We all heard the orc warrior enter the cave and we all heard the brilliant sound of impact.
Black Tooth appeared to be beside himself as he roared in laughter.
Black Tooth: “Did you like my gift Umthra, I chose it carefully for you. The decoration fits your cave perfectly, no?” he taunted the bear men before once again breaking into laughter.
His men who were scared of him, didn’t know whether to laugh or not and appeared to be contemplating their chances of Death at either choice they made.
Apparently in agreement, all the Orcs began to laugh.
To say the least, my ears hurt quite a bit as a thousand laughing orcs is not a pretty sound.
The bear men who were on guard at the cave entrance were pale and appeared to be barely holding onto their self control. They looked like they would begin shaking in fear at any moment.
I glanced at Black Tooth before smirking to myself.
He liked taunts so much did he? Well I would give him one hell of a taunt.
As Black Tooth and his orcs began to calm down from their laughing fit, I hid myself as best as I could be hidden in their camp.
Yup, I hid right behind Black Tooth’s make shift throne.
I made the tone of my voice as deep and gruff as I could, before projecting it as loudly as I possibly could.
What I got was a brilliant skill and a thousand scared orcs.
[Ability [Voice of the Titans - MAX] Unlocked]
MC: “You like Taunting I see Black Tooth, the lesser demon” as my voice boomed across the camp, all the orcs went silent and still as stone, Black Tooth himself beginning to shake slightly. “I see you have already recovered from the fear that my instrument inflicted upon your clan” as I said this, the orcs begin murmuring amongst themselves, the name ‘Instrument of Damnation’ popping up left and right, which infuriated Black Tooth.
Black Tooth began screaming and shouting at his men to silence themselves, going as far as to rip a orc in half and throw his pieces at the crowd of scared orcs.
Black Tooth: “SILENCE YOU IMBECILES! DO NOT TALK, DO NOT DARE OPEN YOUR FILTHY MOUTHS OR I WILL MAKE SURE YOU NEVER OPEN IT AGAIN!” he roared. Following his roar all that was left was silence. “I don’t know what you are, or if your truly a god, but I have done nothing to earn your ire, so why do you stalk my clan” his voice had taken a respectful tone.

I guess he did fear the unknown, or maybe it was because I had known what he was.
Nonetheless, a scared orc is a good orc.
MC: “Done nothing to earn my ire you say? But your Clan has defiled my people, stripped them of their freedom and forced hell upon them” my voice had dropped to a steel icy tone as I said this, Black Tooth appeared to be shaking visibly now “How do you think you can absolve yourselves from this sin, tell me you demonic trash” my voice which was icy was fuelled by my rage.
Black Tooth and his men were all shaking, fear surrounding them as they imagined their own deaths. I presume they imagined their own deaths, since I couldn’t actually read minds and I couldn’t read emotions that well.
As Black Tooth shook in fear, a orc came close to him and began whispering to him.
I checked out this orc and I was surprised as this was the first time I had seen one.
A [Voodoo Shaman: Ghum’bil].
I smiled as I waited for Ghum’bil to finish telling Black Tooth whatever he was telling him.
Black Tooth had stopped shaking and began to smile, his men nor I aside from the shaman couldn’t understand where his new found confidence came from.
Black Tooth: “God of the Damned, I offer a sacrifice and a offering in return for your appeasement” when he said this every orc there began to shake and quiver like there was no tomorrow.
The cause of the immense fear was most likely stemming from the word ‘sacrifice’.
I also wonder whether he had known about me before, or was it the shaman who had told him to call me ‘God of the Damned’. Who cares, as long as Black Tooth lowered himself before me.
Black Tooth: “My sacrifice shall be the men who defiled what was yours my god, as only my chieftains are allowed to take the women. I shall have all of them brought here and executed for your pleasure” as he said this orcs at the camp began to visibly relax as they were not the ones to be sacrificed. “And my offering will be the humans we captured a few days ago. Still untainted by my kind. These may not be your followers, but you may make them yours” as he said this he kneeled and all the orcs followed.
In the back of my head I noted, ‘Add to Black Tooth’s profile, Gullible and fears the unknown’ before I began to contemplate whether to accept this offer or not.
I came to a conclusion, I would watch him sacrifice his men, then I would have Kaiser receive the humans then I would kill Black Tooth afterwards.
A brilliant plan if I may say so.
MC: “Tomorrow I await you to uphold your words Demon. This is your only chance at Salvation” as I said this everyone in the camp visibly relaxed until I continued to talk “Do not disappoint me, or you will acquaint yourself with the realm of the dead” and with that I had already begun to leave the camp.
I was happy with myself as I had managed to do quite a lot today.
On the way back to Kaiser, I planned how long this would all take.
One day to watch him execute his own men and receive the humans.
A second day to move the humans to a safe spot so they do not get harmed.
And before the third day reached its end; to witness the end Black Tooth.
I reached the clearing to my small camp and I witnessed Kaiser sleeping with Ayanna cuddling his gigantic frame.
To be frank, it was beyond adorable.
I smiled and settled myself a small distance away from Kaiser and moved to sleep.
The day was reaching its end and I was tired.
It took me a few hours to walk there and a few hours to walk back, I wonder how Kaiser made that journey so fast.
I wanted to sleep before the pains began, as they were ridiculously painful.
As the dream realm wrapped its magical hands around me I felt something strange.
Like my body was undergoing change.
My mind began to cramp down upon itself as pain flooded in.
But the pain was late as the dream realm already had me within its claws.
[Evolution Unlocked]
[Unique - ???]
[Evolution Accepted]
And before I could even voice my complaint about what just happened, the pain which appeared as a massive demon made of shadow clamped its jaws down upon me.
And with that, I was gone, into the realm of dreams.
