A land of orcs with more men and fewer women

Having been in a high position for a long time, the old lord of Lila City has long since stopped taking charge of the affairs.

City Lord Ottla was used to everything, and he would eventually do it according to his own wishes. If he had to say that there was something he was unhappy about, it would probably be the departure of Seth's mother.

In fact, this incident did not have any obvious impact on his life or mental state.

But this little thing that didn't affect him much, became very glaring to the city lord Ultra, and became a small thorn that needed to be removed urgently.

In addition, although he has been called the Lord of the City by the orcs for many years, everyone knows that the word "acting" is hidden but does exist before the word "Lord of the City".

Adding these two things together, wouldn't it be a lingering concern for the city lord Ottra, who is now doing well?

Coincidentally, recently the city lord Ultra has been thinking of Seth's mother, one of the few female orcs he truly liked.

He remembered that after she left, he had secretly promised Seth that he would inherit everything he had.

This “everything” obviously includes his position as city lord.

In recent years, the city lord Ultra has begun to feel very unwilling that he had to make all the efforts and defeat all the brothers before he sat on the throne of the city lord, but in front of him there are the invisible words "agent".

This was a huge burden for him, as he held the fate of many orcs in his hands.

Why?

Why is it that someone as talented as him is restricted by his identity as a male orc and can only become the "acting city lord"?

This unwillingness became more and more intense as he held power in Rila City over the years.

But...he suddenly had a new inspiration recently.

It can be said to be a genius idea.

Looking at Seth that day, his most outstanding son, the son who inherited all his good qualities.

An idea suddenly occurred to the city lord Ultra: why not let his son achieve everything he wanted?

Hahahaha. City Lord Ottla thought this was brilliant.

With the birth of his own daughter, his inspiration continued to grow.

His son Seth, even though he had a younger sister who inherited the family business, was still able to bypass his legitimate sister and inherit everything from his father. How can this not be considered a kind of transcendence?

But even if Seth surpassed his sister and inherited everything from him, he would still be just an "acting city lord" like him. Whenever the city lord Ottla thought of the word "acting", he would subconsciously feel disgusted.

At the same time, Lilith, who frequently appeared on his desk, caught his attention.

A huge and crazy plan appeared in the mind of City Lord Ottla.

This little female orc named Lilith has collateral bloodline, but has never undergone the bloodline ritual. She is extremely gifted and has a companion stone. Her family is weak. She is still young and has a close relationship with Seth.

He is simply the most suitable candidate.

Although it was not good that Seth cared too much about her, the city lord Ultra was not completely unacceptable.

Then let this little female orc swear an oath of complete loyalty, and all worries will be solved.

At the same time, she can also voluntarily give up the position of city lord to Seth, who will become her beastly husband.

And the oath of complete loyalty she had made before could now guarantee that all her will came from Seth.

In this way, his son Seth, the son who inherited his bloodline, will truly inherit everything he has. Even more than him!

And he who pushed Seth to the position of city lord in the back will become an existence that actually surpasses... or challenges Lord Beast God.

After all, who can break the rules set by Lord Beast God?

It must be him.

Of course, there might be those wild men in Yancheng... but he is much smarter than those guys in Yancheng. Hahahaha.

The city lord Ultra still faced the family banquet below. But he couldn't help but glance at Lilith. Now, he only needed a little greed from this little female orc.

He can create new history.

From then on, male orcs could also become the lord of a city.

Just as the bards sang long ago.

Just thinking about it, City Lord Ottla couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

What a bright future.

It seems that the eyes of City Lord Ottla have seen the day when his story will be spread across this continent.

"I'm sorry, Lord City Lord, I can't meet your expectations."

Lilith's voice rang out of nowhere on this slightly cool terrace.

City Lord Ottla closed his eyes tightly and made a "tsk" sound.

If it is not a mutual vow, it requires the willingness of both parties.

As the lord of a city, why should he bother with this little female orc?

Obviously... obviously, if she was just a little more greedy... a little more ambitious, everything would be fine.

Damn it! City Lord Ottla clenched his hands on the railing into fists.

The city lord Ultra was patient and tried to take a step back, giving Lilith some opportunities to propose conditions. He asked gently, "Why, little Lilith, you should know that I won't lie to you. Isn't the position of the city lord sincere enough?"

Lilith shook her head and did not take this opportunity to express her needs: "It is an honor for me that the City Lord is willing to give me such an opportunity. However, I am not interested in this, so I have no choice but to decline the City Lord's kindness. If the City Lord still needs me in the future..."

Before Lilith finished her polite words, the city lord Ultra waved his hand. He had heard too many polite words. Moreover, Lilith's words were so blunt and unoriginal.

The city lord Ottla originally thought that Lilith was just an underage orc, and he didn't need to spend any time talking to her. Who would have thought that until now, this little female orc was so cunning that she didn't give in.

City Lord Ottla had been planning for a long time. Naturally, he would not give up just because of Lilith's rejection.

"Tell me the truth, little Lilith, why?" For the sake of his great plan, the city lord Ottla still hoped that Lilith would agree. After all, it was not easy to find a suitable candidate.

The little daughter had been born for a long time, and the city lord Ottla could not keep the news hidden any longer. He had to make arrangements before the official announcement of the birth of his little daughter, move Lilith to the main branch, and make an oath with Seth in advance.

He is racing against time.

Lilith lowered her head and remained silent. Just now in the corridor, she really wanted to stay away from the city lord.

"Why don't you speak?" City Lord Ottla was displeased.

"Lord City Lord...what is Seth to you?" Lilith couldn't hold back her worries and murmured.

City Lord Ottla frowned and said, "Of course he is my most valued son. He will inherit my glory and carry it forward."

"Is he willing?" Lilith looked up, a hint of worry in her blue eyes.

City Lord Ottla sniffed, "He will be willing. Because he is my most valued son."

"If... I mean if, he is unwilling to follow your wishes. Then... will he still be your most important son?" Lilith lowered her eyes, blinking her eyelids, and hesitated, "Will you... still love him? Just because he is your son."

Love? City Lord Ottla raised his eyebrows. Does this little female orc know what she is talking about? Does she think he is playing a game of house with her?

There was a coldness in the eyes of the city lord Ottla, who believed that love was a useless emotion.

Love couldn't keep Seth's mother.

Love cannot make him a true city lord.

What is the use of love?

Is it love that has made Seth what he is today?

No.

The reason why Seth grew up to be a leader among the younger generation in the city of Lila was entirely due to his strict education and excellent bloodline.

Love only softens the bones of the orcs, and he, Ultra, has no son who is weak-willed.

City Lord Ottla curled his lips slightly: "My son, you will naturally follow my wishes."

Lilith was stunned again.

The city lord is so scary.

There is only himself in his world.

If he just treated her as an unrelated little orc, then there would be nothing wrong with it.

But… But the Lord Mayor treated Seth the same way. Seth was the Lord Mayor's biological son! Although Seth had never expressed it, Lilith knew that Seth had always longed for the Lord Mayor.

However, the city lord regards Seth as a... tool...?

The word "tool" used here made Lilith shudder. But she had to admit that the word "tool" was appropriate to describe Seth's position in the city lord's heart.

Yes, it is the young master Seth who is widely known in the city and is favored by the city lord. In the eyes of the city lord, he is just a tool...

“Tools” don’t need to have ideas or opinions.

The “tool” only needs to cooperate with the owner’s actions to become very useful.

"Tools" have no consciousness of their own and can be replaced at any time...

Lilith couldn't help but feel sad, and her eyeballs turned slightly red.

That night, Seth's back as he left alone and merged into the darkness kept lingering in Lilith's mind.

Lilith blamed herself for not talking to Seth properly that night.

Such a good Seth, such a hard-working Seth...

Lilith was angry and sad. She felt sorry for him.

The city lord, who is my father, is even more hateful than myself.

Lilith knew very well how good Seth was.

Such a good Seth deserves enough love and attention.

But the truth is so cruel, nothing is "deserve"...

Lilith suppressed her anger and said, "I'm sorry, Lord City Lord."

She just wanted to end this conversation as soon as possible and didn't want to stay with the city lord anymore.

City Lord Ottla said expressionlessly: "Do you know what you are doing?"

Lilith fell into a long silence again.

Does she know what she is doing?

she knows.

She was just a little orc, and she rejected the city lord without knowing what was good for her.

Lilith clenched her hands tightly, but in the end... she still implicated Grandma Kurta...

She must go back and ask her mother and father how to make up for it, so as not to let Grandma Kurta lose too much because of her. She must do it even in batches.

She is too powerless now.

Faced with the city lord who controls the entire city, I have no choice at all.

She couldn't stay any longer, and if she refused now, she could avoid knowing more information and being unable to escape.

What the city lord wants to plan is obviously not something that a little orc of her level can handle.

Lilith doesn't have that kind of capital.

Even if the result is to offend the city lord, it is better than getting yourself into a situation where your life and death are out of your control.

The power of a city lord can be played around with by the city lord at will.

But Lilith couldn't.

The only relevance between her and this position is that the city lord needs her now.

Lilith was clear-headed. The city lord would rather sacrifice the entire city to recruit her, which showed that the seriousness of the matter was far greater than just one city.

Lilith asked herself what capital she had to participate in such a game?

The family she was born into was not worth mentioning to a person like the Lord of the City. The debt that troubled her family was just a matter of words for the Lord of the City.

As for her, she said she had outstanding talent, but that was a matter for the future. Right now, she was just a level 1 Moon Master.

The city lord can even use his own children as chess pieces, using them as he pleases and discarding them at will.

What about Lilith? Once she agreed to the Lord City Lord's request, she would probably be rejected as not enough even if she squeezed her own flesh and blood into juice for the Lord City Lord.

"I'm sorry, Lord Mayor." Lilith repeated.

"Have you thought it through?" City Lord Ottra narrowed his eyes slightly.

"I'm sorry, Lord Mayor." Lilith was silent, and it seemed like this was the only sentence that came out of her mouth.

City Lord Ottla turned around, and his movement brought up a gust of fierce wind.

He glanced at Lilith up and down.

Lilith bit her lower lip and straightened her body.

City Lord Ottla raised his chin and waved his hand.

Lilith was tactful and bowed to take her leave.

Lilith turned around quickly, facing the city lord's cold gaze on her back, and trotted towards the stairs on her weak legs.

Lilith held onto the wall and walked down step by step.

Once again, I recalled the conversation I had just had with the city lord.

In fact, it is not difficult to find that the city lord seems to have his own crazy and unique ideas about the heir.

However, there is no doubt that such ideas will cause great turmoil and bring about changes.

For a city-state, stability is everything.

Even Lilith, a little beastman who had never been in contact with power, understood this simple and plain truth. How could the city lord, who was at the center of power, not understand it?

The answer is of course no.

The city lord had obviously made sufficient preparations and forecasts for his plans and the storms that would soon be caused.

Otherwise, the city lord would never have said those words to Lilith without any scruples.

What exactly is the reason that makes the city lord willing to shake his own power and stir up huge waves in the city?

Is it the respect or love for Seth?

Lilith shook her head slowly.

The city lord never even asked Seth's opinion, and never cared whether Seth was willing or not...

Even if this matter could mean life or death for Seth.

In the eyes of the city lord, Seth is a hollow "tool" that only allows him to inject content and execute it.

Lilith was sad for Seth.

And for the future of the city of Lila.

Her relatives live in this friendly city.

Every street and alley was filled with all the memories of her coming to the continent of Lilts.

But now the city is becoming unstable because of the city lord's willful behavior.
