Orc Harem Vol 1 Chapter 6

Chapter 6: The Bestowed Power of Hero

.

The secret of my birth was disclosed.

I was happy to hear that I had inherited Tou-san’s power.

It was a dangerous power, but I was safe as long as it was sealed, and if it was just the tip then I could safely draw it out. It was a real bargain.

Although, I don’t think that I would have any chance to use that power.

Thanks to my five teachers, I had become objectively strong. The current me could put a good fight even against Kaa-san……well, just a good fight. I had never win against Kaa-san, not even once.

But putting that aside, an outrageously irregular just showed up in this place.

「And, just what’s your business here?」

I asked the beautiful girl who was small like a doll with insect wings on her back.

「Hih, orc, don’t rape me. Aa, don’t look at me with beastly face like that, this damn orc is making a face that is planning to pin me in place with insect pins because I’m too small that he can’t enter me, so he is going to lick me all over, poke me, rub me, and in the end he is going to use syringe to inject me with his sperm to impregnate mee!」

「Your imagination is too wild there! Where did that idea come from!? Just how knowledgeable are you about erotic situation! Also, what kind of face can tell you about a plan of using syringe to impregnate you huh!? No, I’m seriously shocked here, if I really have that kind of face then how should I live on from now!?」

I thought that fairy was an existence that was more fantastical.

「……You really won’t do anything terrible to me?」

「I’m an orc. A true orc won’t violate a reluctant female.」

Kaa-san also taught me about romance between the lessons.

Forcefully raping a reluctant female just because I was strong was what a third-rate brute would do.

The only time it was fine to push down a woman was only when doing so would make them happy.

If they weren’t happy from getting pushed down, that meant I wasn’t strong enough to make them want the gene of a strong male.

Averting your eyes from your own weakness and trampling on the other party’s feeling was seriously uncool. But I had gone through hellish training for four years. So I absolutely would be fine.

Kaa-san had also thoroughly taught me how to differentiate between woman who seriously hated it when she was pushed down and woman whose body was honest despite whatever refusal her mouth was saying.

By the way, this fairy had a pattern of serious dislike, so I wouldn’t push her down.

Either way I wouldn’t be able to put it inside her.

……But, syringe huh. I never thought of that. That sounded interesting.

「Somehow it seems like you’re considering it a bit though!?」

「It’s just your imagination.」

「Fuu, thank god. I thought that orc is a lusty beast!」

「I think there is something wrong with that image you know? My childhood friends are all herbivore and intellectual, and they are also inflexible. They all said that anything sexual should only be done after marriage.」

I recalled the faces of my childhood friends in orc village.

They bullied me in the past, but after I became strong, I won the village’s sumo tournament, the hunting festival, the 342nd This Orc is Amazing contest, etc, etc. Since then the way they looked at me changed. Now they were my good friends.

Every time they would talk about the fashion to become popular among girls, had discussion about improvement of the farming method in order to increase the field’s yield amount, investigated the market price of the nearby village and fumbled around to picture how should the village’s local specialty be, established a hunting limitation so that the blessing of the forest wouldn’t run out from excessive harvesting. All of them were extremely intellectual and reliable.

When I told the fairy that, she tilted her head questioning whether they were really orc.

……But, it seemed that a remain of their instinct still existed inside them, so when they were drunk from alcohol, they would say things like, as expected the female from outside was better than this village’s green pig, or 『Sorry, I had kept it a secret until now but, many times I had actually used your mom as material to masturbate to』『Me too me too, she is seriously youthful and a beauty. I’m jealous』『Actually me too. Frankly speaking, I bullied you Ork was also because of that jealousy』『I also want to impregnate a female knight. But, the outside is scary. And all the female knights must be strong like Ork’s mom right? It’s hell difficulty』.

Things like that. As a son, being told something like just made me troubled of how to react though.

I didn’t know what kind of face I should make toward my friends who masturbated by imagining my mother.

「My vision of orc is loudly crumbling inside.」

「But, it’s only almost all of them are herbivore. After this I’m going to leave the village to create a harem filled with beautiful girls from all over the world and impregnate them. I’m the only carnivore orc in this village.」

「Why is the only carnivore orc in existence the one that get chosen of all people!? Spirit King-sama, this is just strange you know-!?」

The fairy broke down crying.

「Anyway, tell me already what is your business coming here. You know. I already said it just now but, doing it forcefully isn’t my hobby, and to be honest, I won’t be able to do it with you although you’re really cute, so it’s just depressing, so I hope that you will go home already.」

「You’re a real trash! Aa, I don’t give a damn anymore. I’ll talk! Err you see, there is this amazing graet existence called the Spirit King. And that person, he is the person who protect the world. But he can’t interfere with things directly, so he will entrust a portion of his power to the person that seems like the right sort! And, in exchange of the power that person will protect the world. That’s hero! And then, you are the hero. Whee!」

What’s with that complete reliance on others?

Go work by yourself. Are you a NEET huh.

「That sounds troublesome. Can I return this hero power back? It sounds like a convenient power, but I don’t want to get that kind of troublesome thing pushed on me.」

I roughly understood now what kind of existence the Spirit King was. Or rather, Kaa-san also mentioned it before, something about being chosen by the Spirit King as a hero. Let’s ask her about it more later.

「Uuu……this is why I don’t like orc. If it’s a human that get chosen, the legend of hero will already get beaten into them since they were little to brainwash……I mean, for them to have things like longing, or dream, or hope, or carnal desire, or heroic aspiration, or superiority complex so that they will be ecstatic when they get chosen as hero. A human will instantly declare that they want to save the world in your position, and yet this」

「Well, I’m an orc after all. If I’m asked than a hero is an enemy instead. And, can I return this then?」

For monster, a hero was a war criminal who massacred a lot of their comrades.

That kind of power was an ill omen for me. In the first place this title was only something troublesome where in short I had to take care of bothersome things in the place of the Spirit King.

I pointed the so called hero’s crest engraved on the back of my hand to the fairy.

「It’s impossible. It’s already over by the time once you are chosen. Also, it seems you have a misunderstanding. A hero doesn’t have any obligation at all. They only have the right to use the power. Heroes always gotten into many troublesome matters because of those humans’ reasoning that 『If you have power than you should put it into use for mankind’s(our) sake』. They brainwashed the generations of heroes like that and used those heroes as a handy tool. It’s not like hero exist in order to protect human. A hero is a defense mechanism to protect the world.」

「No, the Spirit King will be troubled if he only give power to someone but that person does nothing with it won’t he?」

「It’s the reverse. When there is something that the Spirit King thought as, this thing is really annoying, the Spirit King will choose someone who is fated to face this annoyance in the future. Please don’t worry, even if you aren’t chosen as the hero, it’s already written in your fate that you absolutely won’t be able to avoid this trouble, so it’s not like your troubles are increased by getting appointed as hero. But, if you use that power, a lot of idiots will swarm around you to claim and ask a lot of things, but something like that is outside our jurisdiction. Just do whatever you damn please.」

This system was unexpectedly upright.

I see, those heroes who were worked like slave because of the so called hero’s mission were actually just moved around for human’s convenience huh.

「What’s the prove that you’re telling me the truth?」

「You can just ask Mireille about that. She is your predecessor after all.」

Kaa-san nodded with a cheerful smile.

「What the fairy say is true. Kaa-san didn’t fight the demon king or his army because I’m a hero, Kaa-san fought them just for the country’s convenience. Hero also often get dragged into war between fellow humans depending on their own whim.」

「It’s just as Okaa-san said. The enemy that she had to defeat no matter what as a hero appeared after we married. The two of us faced it together. That time we also called the hero party and the demon king’s four heavenly kings. It was a fun reunion. The after party was also really fun.」

「Yes, I want to have a reunion again. But it was unfortunate that a continent went under that time.」

A shocking truth was revealed just now!! Or rather, the hero and the demon king and their comrades really got along well with each other.

Was it fine to treat it so casually like that?

Still, now I understood that the fairy was telling the truth.

The fairy said that she was tired while looking at me. Then she suddenly narrowed her eyes.

In addition she tilted her head and began to stare fixedly on me.

She drew near and looked harder. And then, she began to sweat like waterfall.

Her face was pale, as though she had discovered a blunder.

「Mireille, what in the world have you done? This guy is strange. A hero’s power should be limited to a single generation and won’t be passed down to their descendant, and yet why is your hero’s power dwelling in your son? Thanks to that the hero’s power inside him is doubled when combined with the power that was handed to him just now you know!?」

……Come to think of it, Tou-san said that I inherited the power of hero. It became doubled with the power that I received just now added into it.

「Because it’s a convenient power after all. Besides, Otou-san’s power was too strong that it made me worried whether I would be able to give birth properly if the power of my blood also got added into it. That was why, I asked my acquaintance. By inheriting the hero’s power, the vessel to contain the power was enlarged. Tehe-」

「What do you mean tehe-. What the hell did you do messing around with the Spirit King’s authority so brazenly like that! If you so casually pass down the power to the next generation like this, the world will be overflowing with heroes after a few generationssss」

「It’s fine. It seems that it’s impossible to pass down the power unless it’s with Evol Orc. And even with Evol Orc as the recipient, there is only one person in this world who can do something like this. The hero won’t increase so easily like that.」

……Surely it was the great sage Merlin Enlight who did it.

So it’s you again.

That person, he also sealed my orc blood, and he taught me magic, just how heavy my debt toward that person was?

I suddenly recalled a manga from my previous life after hearing this explanation.

It’s that manga. The situation right now was similar with the story of dragon knight.

In that main character’s case, his father was a dragon knight and he had the crest of dragon since he was born.

At the latter half of the story, his father died and he inherited his father’s dragon crest. Combined with a rebirth he obtained two crests.

Eh, perhaps I could also do something like that?

The power that I felt from the hero crest that was engraved on my right hand just now. I felt a similar power with that deep inside my body. I see, this kind of power had been sleeping inside me all this time.

I drew out that power. Yosh, it came out. I gathered that power into my left hand.

Oh, it’s complete.

「Look look, I got the crest on both hands. Isn’t it cool?」

「My my, that’s really wonderful Ork.」

「You have two of the spirit crest that you received from from the Spirit King, so let’s call it the Twin Spirit Crests.」

Other than the crest I got just now on my right hand, another crest was shining on my left hand too. This one was the one that I inherited from Kaa-san.

Oh, amazing power was welling up inside me.

I could sense the power of spirit that was filling the atmosphere. The spirits who usually wouldn’t lend me their power unless I went through a troublesome ritual first now became really friendly and asked me to please use their power.

No, it wasn’t just this room. The spirits from the radius of several hundred kilometers were rapidly gathering. Earth, fire, wind, water, spirits from all elements came.

This was really convenient. After all normally they would only respond based on the attribute that the person was born with. People could only use one element.

The fairy began to shake.

「What the hell are you doinggg!? A single crest is the limit of the Spirit King’s authority that can be given to someone. Who knows what would happen if one person have two like this. Spirit King, exception, it’s fine even if it’s an exception, cancel this, please cancel the power that was given to this guy!」

The fairy begged to the sky with a desperate look, but it seemed this so called Spirit King decided to ignore her.

Before long she became quiet.

「I don’t care anymore. A world like this can just go die.」

「Fairy-san, first let’s drink something sweet and calm down.」

「This is your fault Mireille! Even though you were a honest person who was burning with a sense of mission in the past, you became damn strange since you met this orccc」

Kaa-san was smiling even at this kind of time.

「Well, what will happen will happen. I’m satisfied to learn that nothing troublesome is pushed on me. I just need to defeat the guy that annoyed the Spirit King when it appears one day right? You can go home now.」

To repeat, no matter how cute she was, I had no interest in a female that I couldn’t impregnate.

If an annoying fairy like this accompanied me, others would think of me as having a child. It would be a tragedy if the first rate female I encountered disliked me because of that.

If I absolutely would encounter the Spirit King’s enemy because of fate, then I wouldn’t need any navigator. Let’s ask her to go back.

「You don’t need to tell me that. I’m going home. But, I also have the responsibility to report to the guy above periodically. I’ll come again, and if I feel like it I can also give you advice, so just prepare a sweet juice for my coming.」

The fairy vanished. By the way before I realized it she was holding the juice that Kaa-san handed to her.

She was really a cheerful fellow. She got bad mouth but I didn’t hate her.

「Okaa-san, I’m really proud that Ork got chosen as hero. Let’s announce it to everyone in the village right away.」

Let’s stop thinking too deeply about the hero matter. Just think of it as lucky for obtaining a convenient power.

For now, let’s ask Kaa-san about her time as hero.

Let’s also ask about the demon king matter while I’m at it. Actually I didn’t know why the demon king fought with humans.

After that, Tou-san and Kaa-san told me everything without any pretense.

I was glad that I could have time like this before my journey.

After this I would visit Merlin Enlight. I had to master this seal for my own sake and for my children in the future.

Besides, the phrase hidden power sounded a bit cool.
