He gained 3 levels by completing the quest given by the Orc Race.
The Orc Elder continued saying.
“Here are the promised goods. Chwit!”
Quest reward items! For completing the quest from the Orc Village, the reward was either Gem or an Ore.
‘I hope I would get an expensive gem’
Processed gems from sculpting sells for more money. Weed held considerable expectations.
However, what the Orc Elder brought back was a black lump
“Chwichwik. This ore was discovered a long time ago. We found this being used in parts of some armor we took during a hunt. You can take it to a Blacksmith and have it applied to your armor to enhance it. Chwiit.Take care of it.”
A black lump!
At first, Weed did not know what the item was.
It was neither a type of equipment nor a mineral ore.
After examining for some time, faint traces of an armor was found.
It could be used to make gloves, boots, shoulder pauldrons, and belts. Things that were partially made out of mithril could be sold for a hefty sum.
The mithril could be melted in a furnace, but without proper skill proficiency, the process of hardening the metal would result in an unusable piece of junk metal.
‘Mithril. To handle this properly, I definitely have to go to the City of Artists. I also have to pay the city a visit to obtain more knowledge of the Moonlight Sculptor profession.’
The City of Artists, Rhodium!
Many Guilds of the artisan and production classes gathered there.
“I sincerely thank you, Elder. Chwit.”
Weed placed his reward inside his backpack.
Without missing a beat, the elder continued talking.
“Now the Orcs can hold their heads up with pride. Chwitchwit. We have proved to the arrogant Dark Elves that we are the masters of Yuroki Mountains. Chwiiit. Up to the last moments, through tough challenges, the Orcs survived.”
*Ttiring!
The existence of Orcs in the continent of Versailles was revealed.
Ferocious, selfish, and enormous race!
However, they are also honest and straightforward. The Orc race boasts a large population and the strongest members in terms of raw power. An overwhelming force!
With their enhanced physical abilities, the results of the Orcs’ growth is physical strength that rivals that of a Barbarian.
For the Prosperity of the Specie.
The Orc race is now available at the start of Royal Road. New players can now choose the Orc race as their initial character.
‘It’ll be a busy time in the Yuroki Mountains’
After some time, Orcs with the appearance as handsome as Weed were made.
Curious of the new race, a lot of people were interested and chose Orcs as their initial character. Multitudes of new players arose in the Village of the Orcs. There were a lot of Orc players with “Chwiik” in their name!
Thanks to expensive prices and unconventional commerce in the village, the Orc players ran around the mountains hunting while looking heinous and selfish, but it also produced many opportunities.
Spacious hunting ground of Yuroki Mountains!
Infested with high-ranked monsters!
When they chose to start as an Orc in the Village of Exiles, they were able to get many value experiences. They wouldn’t have been able to if they chosen the human race.
Weed bowed his head slightly towards the Orc Elder and walked out of the village.
***
With his party, Weed went to the castle of the Dark Elves to look for the Necromancer and submit his report.
“Commander!”
In the castle were Dark Elves and the Soldiers of Rosenheim Kingdom.
Royal Knights and Centurions alive and well.
Buran, Becker and Hosram!
Weed noticed that Dale was missing.
"Buran, where's Dale?"
“Da, Dale... Heuheuk!”
The Royal Knights had somber faces, both Buran and Hosram bursted into tears, while Becker was trying hard to hold back his tears.
“Dale, along with the Wyverns, got swept away by the Lich’s magic spell.”
“How’d it happen!”
Weed eyes turned red and began to cry.
Deep sorrow, sadness, regret, bitterness and pain!
These were the feelings that Weed felt.
With a glum look, Weed sat to the spot next to Hosram, where Dale would usually sit.
Dale was hardworking and reliable, he got promoted to the rank of Centurion, and was given charge of the main force. ‘Dale.’
Rosenheim Kingdom soldiers were sorrowful, but Weed took the chance to increase intimacy.
“Nevertheless Commander, as a parting gift, he and the wyverns sent one of Barr Khan’s main forces straight to hell.”
“I’m sure he regretted nothing, we all would have followed you anywhere.”
Hosram, Buran, and Becker’s affinity and loyalty was at its best. To other soldiers of the Rosenheim Kingdom and the Royal Knights, Weed’s order was absolute.
It wasn’t unusual for a commander to mourn for the loss of a subordinate. Weed’s ability, charisma, and leadership that allowed him to complete the quest earned deep trust amongst the soldiers.
Weed’s companions thought that they had mistakenly judged him.
Pale reflected.
