The Queen of Death Return

The Queen of Death Return
Orc King


Chapter 5: The Test For Two Subordinates


I believe that the glory of our village will soon return. Her Majesty Queen Keres Vasilissa, she is a Goddess for us. The first time I saw him, my whole body was instantly numb. With just his aura, I can't move. I was a little scared even talking to him.


To help Her Majesty the Queen search for the 12 World Guards, we went on an adventure and became A rank adventurers. And our destination this time was Sige Village, located in the eastern region of the Empire. We're hunting the Ogre who attacked the area. I don't know what he planned with this quest, he must have realized something.


"Erish, Hawk." His Majesty stopped his steps.


"Yes, Your Majesty," I replied.


"Erish, I told you to call me Alissa from now on,"


"Ba-good,"


I still don't understand, he's been very different since he became an adventurer named Alissa. If asked to choose, I would prefer her to be Alissa than Her Majesty the Queen.


During the commotion that occurred at the inn, he easily defeated the Warrior from the Hero Party. I'll bet that the Warrior is capable of a balanced fight with the Hawk. However, His Majesty can defeat him easily using magic that I do not know about. He said that magic was able to reduce one's Mana to the point where the Mana condition was almost exhausted. It was extremely terrifying, especially for the Magic Casters. Where is our life, if it is taken from us, maybe we will die instantly. The warrior was able to survive because of his strong physique.


"Can you guys handle this Ogre?" ask His Majesty.


"We'll try our best." Hawk answered with confidence.


"I just want to see your fighting abilities. The equipment you're wearing can improve your physical and attacking abilities,"


It was amazing, even he gave us this equipment. Sure enough, I did feel a little strong while wearing this. Especially when I used the Shield Wall, I only used a little bit of Mana to do so. Even so, the Warrior from the Hero Party could destroy it.


We arrived at Sige Village.


"What happened to this village?" My eyes immediately glared at the condition of our destination village.


The village was destroyed. It seems like the Ogre has already attacked this village.


"Erish, you look for the Ogre's nest, I'll find the surviving villagers,"


"All right."


Hawk and I rushed into the forest, following in their footsteps.


"Hawk, I'll cast a body-boosting magic on you,"


"Do it, Erish,"


"Physical boost."


We found a bunch of Ogres in front of a cave. By observing them from afar, they were likely 15.


Uh, why are there Orcs there?


"Hawk, there's an Orc in there, this must be troublesome,"


"It looks like the Orcs are leading the Ogres. Stay alert, Erish,"


"Hawk, can you lead them out of the cave and gather them together?"


"I'll try,"


Hawk came out and ran towards the bunch of Ogres.


"GWAAA!"


The Ogres began to be aggressive after seeing Hawk. They ran and attacked Hawk.


*spring!


With a single slash, an Ogre split into two. Hawk kept running towards the field to lure them.


"Erish, now!" shouts Hawk


"Fragile Soil!" I used earth magic to make a big hole.


The Ogres were trapped in the hole.


I ran and cast magic again. "Fire Storm!" I burned them in the hole using mid-level magic.


"GWAAAAA!"


It's working. But, the Orcs we saw earlier did not come with them. I'm sure they're in the cave.


"Hawk, the Orcs seem to be inside that cave,"


"True, do we have to go back and report it to Alissa?"


"No, this is a task given to us. Use all your abilities,"


We entered the cave. The very threatening Eve began to feel. The deeper we went down the cave, the more stinging the smell inside the cave was. The bones of human-like creatures were scattered everywhere.


This signifies that there were other adventurers before us trying to complete this quest.


"GRRR."


There was a sound coming from the inside of the cave, we approached the origin of the sound slowly.


As expected, this was indeed the nest of those Orcs.


We kept quiet and watched them.


It would be a little difficult against Orcs, as they had weapons and fighting skills like Warriors. They're C rank monsters.


*Dump Dump Dump


"Eh." We were both shocked when we saw that figure suddenly coming into that Orc crowd.


It was the Orc King! What is that monster doing here?! It's very dangerous! Since there was no word from the previous adventurers who died here, then this quest was not renewed because there was no information about the Orcs. Moreover, there was an Orc King here, obviously the monster was A rank, and it was extremely dangerous!


"Hawk, do you want to attack them?"


"This is my life goal, Erish, our predecessor once defeated beast rank A, maybe this Orc King is not much different,"


"Hawks." I saw the face of Hawk who was very excited to defeat the monster. But I have a little bit of concern about him.


"I'm advancing! Help protect me, Erish!"


"Good! Shaking Earth Magic!" I cast earth magic that caused shocks to the ground.


Orc's attention was distracted by the ground shocks I made. Hawk attacked them.


*spring!


One strike was not enough to kill the Orc. I tried Fire Storm's magic to burn them. But, it only hurt them a little. I wanted to make a hole like before, but it could tear down this cave, too risky. The Orc King is still silent at this fight, I must watch out for it.


Hawk managed to kill some of them, it was because they weakened after I burned them. Hawk went wild, I also supported him with my magic and attacks.


"Damn! Orcs are still a lot left!" Hawk raised his sword and started in a position to prepare for another fight.


"Hawk, are you still capable?"


"Thanks to the equipment Alissa gave us, we can still move now." Hawk's great sword shone bluish.


"Hawks! Don't tell me, k-you?!"


"Thunder Attack!"


This was Hawk's strongest skill. Concentrate all of the Mana energy into the sword and attack in one strike. Hawk aims to finish them off at once.


*wing! Duars!


"L-excellent!"


I've never seen Hawk in this condition. The orcs were already partially dead and the rest were severely injured.


"THAT'S GREAT, MAN." The Orc King who had been paying attention had finally started to move.


If that Orc King could speak, it was certain that he was at the top A rank. It's a bad situation.


"Death you! Ayaaakkk!" Hawk attacked that Orc King with the rest of his strength.


*ting!


The Orc King easily repelled it.


*dum!


"Huaaakk!!" Hawk received a punch and bounced.


This is not the time to watch.


"Wind Cutter!" "Fire Strom!" "Magic Explosion!" I attacked him with 3 magic at once.


*Out!


"Did that work?"


"YOKUKU ... SMALL ATTACKS ARE NO THREAT TO ME, MAN."


Of course, magic is not enough. This is bad, what should use that magic? All righty!


"Abyss Magic: The Black Cannon!" This is the high-level magic I have. It popped 4 magic circles around me, and shot out at the speed of sound.


*dum! Dm! Dum! Dum!


"LOW HUMAN BASE! INFINITE BARRIER!"


*Out!


Due to my huge magic explosion, this cave started to break down and started to disintegrate.


"Huh ... Huh ... Did that kill him?"


The puff of explosive smoke I made began to dissipate, a huge silhouette was visible from behind the smoke.


"That-can't be!" I was surprised by what happened.


That Orc King managed to hold back my Abyss magic with his barrier. But, it seemed like the barrier was partially destroyed and injured him.


*Slurp Slurp


"YOKUKU ... MAN, YOU HAVE A POWERFUL MAGIC. ARE YOU SURE IT COULD KILL ME?"


"W-what the fuck!"


He's regenerating! Can an Orc do that?! Only Trolls can do Regeneration, but, this Orc King? What the fuck?!


"ALRIGHT, MAN, I WILL END YOUR SUFFERING." He walked towards me who was sitting weak.


Holding the big sword he was going to use to kill me. "GOODBYE!"


It's eraki-shi


*ting!


"HMMM?"


Why didn't I die?


I opened my eyes and saw the figure in front of me.


"Are you having some bad pig fun?"


"WHO ARE YOU?"


"Yes-ya-His Majesty the Queen." I was silent and fascinated to see the figure in front of me. My tears are dripping right away.


"You okay, Erish? You can rest now, let me kill this ugly pig,"


"Good."


"HOW DARE YOU IGNORE ME! DIE DOWN!" The Orc King attacked with full force in annoyance.


*crang!


The Orc King's sword was destroyed by the punch it delivered just as it was aimed at Her Majesty the Queen.


"WHAT THE"


"Brothers,"


The body of the Orc King instantly froze could not be moved. Looks like a statue.


I can also use Freezing which is classified as medium-level magic, but, using Freezing to defeat the Orc King? It is beyond the normal human ability.


"Ball Fire Brust,"


*Out!


The monster was broken into pieces.


"Huh ... You ugly pig. Erish, where's Hawk?"


I pointed towards Hawk who was in a state of concern.


"I-it,"


"Hey, Hawk, are you alive?"


"A-a-alissa, I-I'm still a bwertahwan." Although he was injured, Hawk was still able to speak even in an indistinct voice.


"Magic Transfers. Hang on, I'll give you the Mana of the bastard Warrior from that inn. Erish, can you still walk here?"


"Ma-still,"


His Majesty gave Mana to me and healed both of us.


I still don't understand, what job does he have now? He can do everything.


"A-alissa, what kind of job do you have?"


"All jobs,"


"No way,"


Is he kidding?!


"All right, we're back in the village now. Hold my hand,"


*clap


"Teleportation,"


Eh? A teleport?


"We're here,"


I saw that Sige Village, which was destroyed before, is now back to what it was. Like nothing happened. And many people gathered in the middle of the village.


"Our goddess is back!" "Life Goddess!" "Life Goddess!"


The citizens shouted.


Eh? What happened while I was fighting?
