When I regained consciousness, I was lying in the middle of the forest.
A shabby blanket made of leaves covered Me.
The first thing I do after waking up is to remember the last memory I had before passing out.
I managed to pull the spear by holding back the electricity released, but in the end, I used up all of my energy and fainted.
I checked to make sure my memory was not wrong and Rival's Lightning Bolt was in my inventory.
I can't take a gun.
I was afraid of the electricity that enveloped the spear and after speaking with the Great Spirit, this spear finally represented my weakness.
He asked me to think about the meaning of bringing this out.
"Gee."
I was able to draw the spear that many people tried but failed to do.
I felt nothing but bitterness.
Having a good life of my own is the motto of my life.
My thoughts about that have not changed.
However, somewhere deep inside me, I might suffer from loneliness.
"… I have to go back."
The Great Spirit must have taken me to a place quite far from the plateau because I could not feel the presence of spirits.
Since I know that I have no talent in spells, there is no reason for Me to return to the plateau.
I no longer have any business with the Great Spirit.
Gasps !!
Just as I was about to return to the base, the wolf I was driving appeared before me.
The wolf was smart enough to find me by using his nose and kept sniffing.
"I remember leaving you with Tunga, but you were amazing."
To praise them, I gently pat them with My hands.
The wolf then stuck out its tongue like a dog and licked my hand.
Thankfully, the saddle is still on top of the wolf so I'm ready to go after ascending and grabbing control.
"Let's go back to base."
Nothing happened at the base as the outer walls and entrance had no trace of battle.
However, the base was currently experiencing a different problem.
They managed to capture the enemy's reconnaissance forces and made them prisoners.
"That's surprising."
I muttered to myself.
Every time the Orcs were resisted, their personalities became violent.
Even if the enemy barely breathes, they will target the head to finish them off forever.
But they kept the enemy alive and brought them here.
"I heard Orkhar made it."
"I really don't know what he's thinking."
I nodded my head as if I understood it.
I found out while talking to Orkhar, but he was an interesting figure because he thought like an ordinary Orc.
The Orcs believed that having power was the only way to end the war, but he believed that having a strategy was also important.
The reason why the clan leaders got together and discussed strategy was because Orkhar first mentioned the importance of it and that was why they started it.
When I climbed the tower, I noticed that the Hocrim was guarding itself.
"Oh, you're back. Hows it? Is there any point in learning a spell?"
I remember a time when Kalax told me that Hocrim was a powerful witch.
He wanted to form a bond with Me through a spell, so he stood up from his chair and approached Me.
"Forming a bond with the spirit is no easy task.In the end, I can't be a partner with anyone."
"Oh no !! I think you will be able to become friends with a strong spirit because of which one is strong. When I have a chance later, I will introduce you to a useful spirit !!"
Looks like Hocrim really wants to make me a witch.
But I don't want to go near that plateau.
"Where are the others?"
"In the dungeon. Did you hear the news?"
"Something about the prisoner?"
"That's right. Orkhar believed that he would be able to obtain some useful information from the Elves he captured."
After hearing the tone, it seemed like he was too happy with the prisoner Orkhar had brought.
I looked down at the prison from the tower.
"Ah .. we don't know anything. We really don't know anything !!"
When I opened the prison door, I saw five Elves tied to ropes and tortured.
The iron sticks that had been sitting on the fire were used to refer to them as criminals.
It burns through the skin and when the smoke starts to rise, the smell of burnt skin enters my nose.
"If you find anything, let me know."
Master Kalax and the other leaders turned around and our eyes met.
After greeting them, we separated.
"Did you get something?"
I noticed Orkhar's agitated expression, which made me think that he had found nothing, but I kept asking.
"Yet. I don't expect them to endure it all this time."
The Elves had wounds all over their bodies and they looked so tired that they had no energy to fight back.
This must have been Orkhar's first time torturing because he looked tired and sweat soaked his face.
I began to question him and thought that he was wasting time with these Elves.
"They're just ordinary fairies. They are not very useful as hostages. Elves haven't done anything yet, so that's proof that they've given up on you."
"If this continues, you will be tortured even more and you will be skinned alive and after that, you will be hung on the wall. Although we have not found anything, you have helped a lot in inspiring us soldiers. "
"What are you trying to say? Humans."
"I let you know that even if you make an honorable sacrifice, no one will know about it. Soldiers die in war all the time and before the pain is healed, a different grief builds on it. What you do is a useless sacrifice. "
They were more shaken about what I said then the physical pain they had been experiencing all along.
The elf next to them started crying after hearing what I said.
They must have had trouble holding it back as tears started to flow down their faces.
"In that case ... what would change if we told you everything?"
"I can't guarantee that we'll let you live. However, we will not be in vain torturing you and on top of that, we will make sure to treat you well as long as you are here."
It was then that I took out my sword and cut the rope tied around them.
Once their hands and feet were free, they kept clenching their hands as if they did not believe.
Despite the fact that they were experiencing pain, a joyful smile appeared on their faces.
After seeing their smiles, I knew it was over.
"There is a temple far north of this base and there is a G.o.d that we worship. There was a rumor that two days later, the Great Priest would pay a visit there."
the Great Priest was the leader and commanded the Elves.
I don't think such a figure would be mentioned from the mouth of the search unit.
Orkhar became so excited that it seemed like he was going to start cheering.
"That's the truth, right?"
"We've been expelled, so there's no reason for us to lie. I'd like to ask you for a favor. Please give me and my subordinates something to eat and drink. Please." Please."
"Very good."
As I was about to walk out of the prison, Orkhar quickly stopped Me.
His eyes began to shine and it seemed like he was touched by what I said.
"How did you do that? No matter what I do, they won't listen to me."
"If you keep torturing them, they'll eventually start talking. However, to make them give up quickly, I helped them realize their reality."
"Have you ever tortured anyone before?"
"No. I acted a little bit based on the plays and novels I read."
"the dorm? The novel?"
"They are part of the culture in the human world."
"I'm envious. It would be nice if I had the chance to experience it."
What I'm not is not an extraordinary skill that I should praise.
After looking into their eyes, I noticed that their willingness was on the verge of collapse.
"Then, I will use the information they provided and will make plans !!"
He got carried away by the information he got and rushed to the conference room.
As long as I take back the base, the stage will end, so I don't see the need to target the Great Priest.
However, I heard a moment ago that it was beneficial to catch the leaders of each race.
However, in the war that occurred in the fifth stage, the leaders of each race had not been cut off.
This had been a problem for quite some time and one challenger became desperate, so they gathered others who had similar goals and decided to achieve them.
However, they died before they could even get close to them.
In the end, many people gave up and now, no one wants to lead.
I want to see if the forgotten rumors are true.
With my strength, that's enough.
"It would be amazing if something came up."
Since we invaded the enemy camp, we cannot take many soldiers.
Of all the soldiers, 30 of them were chosen and the leaders and I moved to capture the Great Priest.
At the location that the Elves mentioned, there was a temple that looked antique.
"… It looks familiar."
It looked exactly the same as the temple I visited with Kalax.
I'm not the only one surprised.
The Orcs were so shocked that the three of them separated themselves from the group.
There's a lot I want to say, but I need to focus on that plan.
Since we did not know when he would appear, we all hid and waited until they appeared.
While we wait for the target.
A man wearing a white robe appeared in front.
I've never seen the Great Priest, so I'm waiting for someone to confirm.
"I'm sure it's him."
As soon as Kalax said that, they began to growl as if they were ready to attack.
"We will leave once they arrive in front of the temple. This is our only chance. We should get the head priest Big, no matter what happens."
