nIn front of the Steelfield Fortress.

nAll the soldiers had gathered in front of the fortress and raised their swords.

nAll of them were tense and were slightly nervous seeing such a strong lineup.

nThe huge number of troops of Wolftribesman and Orc lined up before them.

nMoreover,the lowest rank they have was squire rank while many of those on their side hadn’t even awakened their mana.

nA member of Wolftribesman stepped forwards.

nHe had a height of 3 metres and had two big deep scars on his chest and he had whitish fur along with sharp canines and long claws.

nAlex felt that he was the chief of Wolftribesman

n“Fear not human, we mean no harm.”The Chief of Wolftribe spoke with a loud voice.

nAlex didn’t lower his weapons but rather raised his vigilance and looked at Hamilton who gave a brief nod.

nAlex walked forward and stood before the fortress and spoke” I am Alex.The King of Nevan.”

n“What do you mean by bringing your entire troops in front of Steelfield Fortress?”

n“Do you want to wage a war against us?” Alex spoke with a cold and sharp tone.

nAlex knew that these were natives of this place and have lived here since centuries along with humans and haven’t cause any mess but seeing their lineup Alex decided to take a strong stance from the beginning.

nThe wolf tribesman and Orc’s expressions stiffened a little on hearing Alex’s introduction and his cold words.

nThey didn’t imagine that they would meet the king of this land here in such a condition.

nThe Chief of Wolftribesman looked at Orc and got his approval while walking forward. He gave Alex a gentle bow and said”I am Peru, the chief of Wolftribesman.”

n“I am Kassel.The Chief of the Orc tribe.” One of the big bulky Orc came forward and spoke while tapping his large wooden mace on his shoulder while observing Alex.

nOrcs were the warriors who respect and worship strength but seeing Alex, he snorted in disdain as he felt that Alex was quite weak being King of the Nation.

nHe looked quite weak and even the people behind him seemed to be strong.

nWhile the wolf tribesman had the same thought, they could feel a faint sense of danger from Alex.

npᴀ da nᴏv el Wolftribesman was said to be close to mother nature and can perceive many things which others cannot and right now, all the senses of Peru were screaming that he should not offend this guy.

nPeru knew Kassel was not good with words and he can already see a hint of disdain for Alex in Kassel’s eyes to which he can only sigh and let nature take its course.

n“Alex, your majesty, we are not here for any war or trouble.”

n“Since decades of the establishment of Steelfield fortress, we have never attacked it. We don’t have any hostility towards humans and we are already content with what we have but recently we are facing troubles in the forest.”

nNovelFull,c,om

n“For that, we wanted to ask for the active corporation and support,” Peru spoke with a gentle nod.

nAlex was quite surprised by Peru’s tone. He didn’t look like the type of person who would speak, shaking away his arrogance and treating the other party with respect.

nBut his polite way of speaking once again proved that appearance can mislead.

nMoreover, Alex didn’t know what was going on inside the forest and thought this might be a good chance to uncover some mysteries but he wasn’t sure whether to believe in them or not.

n“Can you please specify the situation so that I can get a gist of it?” Alex asked.

nPeru nodded and started to explain the recent events.

nThe entire forest that existed for unknown centuries without any problem, had suddenly become a place full of traps and deceit.

nAnd it started a few months ago when the monsters and beasts suddenly became unusually strong and started the massacre.

nGenerally, there were many small groups in the forest and each of these groups of monsters had their own area to hunt and don’t usually interfere or hunt in other ‘s territory.

nBut suddenly they started to cause a rampage everywhere they went and moreover, it was not for food cause they kept on killing and didn’t even care about the hunt.

nTheir Wolf tribe and Orc were the major species in the forest and we have a huge village along with a territory.

nOccasionally they would have a minor skirmish with Orc and had a battle or two with them though there was no deep enmity between them.

nPeru explained and spoke with a solemn voice,”Our children train and hunt in the forest and with the unusual activity going around, all their lives were in peril so we shook away our grievances and started an alliance to find the root of the matter.”

n“Still, we failed and we weren’t able to uncover anything even after our mad search.”

n“Instead of uncovering the root cause of the problem our alliance that had gone for the search became like a beast and fought among themselves.”

n“Many of my wolf tribesmen had lost their sense and started to fight frantically with increased strength and stamina.”

n“And the one who bears the brunt was none other than us. Since wolf tribes were born with natural affinities, each one of us can awaken quite easily and mostly use mana and those who have fallen into madness mostly have messed up mana channels and routes.”

n“Orcs generally don’t use mana and mainly rely on their superior strength and quick regeneration unlike us so and only a handful of them were able to awaken their mana and their side suffered quite less compared to us.”

n“For a moment we thought that it was their doing to weaken our strengths and take our numbers.”

n“After countless heated arguments, we finally concluded that it wasn’t Orc’s doing.”

n“We weren’t able to solve it, while more and more wolves members of my tribe were losing their lives.”

nPeru raised his head and spoke with a soft tone,”I can’t just stand on the side and watch my people losing their lives. That’s why I came up with the idea to ask for the help of you humans.”

n“Your Majesty, please help my tribe.On the name of Goddess Nature, we swear our eternal allegiance to you.” Peru spoke and bowed his head down in respect.
