163.Stunning the Adventurers
”He’s flying!”
”What nonsense are you spouting?”
”He really is… and t-there is a black shadow below him!” Gerald stumbled behind.
At this moment, one orc suddenly noticed the disturbances in the bushes ahead.
He walked forward with only a piece of cloth covering his crotch. The orc had a crude, long spear in hand.
”Who’s there?!” The orc guard shouted in his language and thrusted the spear ahead.
Suddenly, his feet felt cold. Before he could move them, the coldness spread to the orc’s legs, freezing his body.
”Enem-” A thin icicle passed through his temple and the orc fell on the bushes.
Whispers flowed in the place the orc had died. The dead body was nowhere to be seen, someone seemed to have pulled it. The adventurers were worried about the incoming person.
”Could it be a B-Rank adventurer?”
”Here, see for yourself…”
Leilia put on the glasses and looked back. She could clearly see Jake’s speeding figure. Seeing him ten feet over the ground made her cry in surprise. Gerald was right!
A bit farther away, Jake smiled and informed Erin who was running below. ”It seems this place has visitors already. I see some adventurers ahead, hiding in the bushes. They are probably planning to raid the orc settlement.”
”What do we do with them, master?” She asked.
”I don’t think we have to do anything. They’ll stay out of my way if they know what’s better,” Jake replied and sped up.
Shockwaves broke the tree branches below as he disappeared ahead. Erin pouted and increased her speed, but she couldn’t catch up to her master.
Jake appeared before the hiding adventurers within 10 seconds. His arrival brought a large booming sound which immediately alerted the orcs.
The trees surrounding Jake were blasted away due to the shockwave. The adventurers below shrieked. Soma and Eliah, the two mages, quickly created a magical shield to protect everyone.
As the shockwaves disappeared, they saw a tall and handsome man leisurely descend from the air. Just his aura made it difficult to breathe. Quinn immediately realized that this was someone at the 4th Circle.
”Hmm, are you a team?” Jake asked.
”Yes, s-sir…” Tarik stuttered as he replied.
Jake looked at each one of them and waved his hand. ”Do whatever, just don’t get in our way.”
”Our…?” The adventurers looked around in confusion. At this moment, they heard a sharp female voice coming from the same direction.
”No fair, master!”
A beautiful woman came running and immediately hugged the tall man from behind. The adventurers couldn’t help but be stunned.
To have such speed, she must be at the 3rd Circle. Such a woman was calling this handsome man a ‘master.’ He had to have a high status.
”Alright, release me,” Jake said, looking at the orcs pouring out of the village with swords, spears, and clubs.
Erin snuggled for a few more seconds, suggestively pressing her breasts on his back. She unwrapped her hands after that and stood beside him.
Cries of orc warriors filled the place as they came to battle the intruders.
Quinn knew things were out of his control now. Having faith in the mysterious high-ranking man, he commanded his teammates to get in position.
”Unnecessary.” Jake snapped his fingers and black blobs of light emerged behind him. Shadow Spears appeared from those blobs and shot toward the orcs.
As he walked forward unhindered, the adventurers were left in shock. To this man, the orcs were like insects. 1st or 2nd Circle, under the barrage of shadow spears, no orc could do anything.
The dumb ones tried shielding themselves with wooden boards in vain, and the smart ones ran away in different directions. The defense of the orcs was broken within a few minutes.
While the adventurers were still processing this scene, they heard more voices calling from behind.
”Master!”
”Master!”
Soma immediately turned around hearing that word. When he saw the centaurs, the mage couldn’t help but doubt his own eyes.
”What the…”
Running at a high speed, Bella and Ella’s breasts jiggled continuously. It made for an extremely alluring scene. As a womanizer, Soma was completely captured by the centaurs’ beautiful figures.
However, seeing more beautiful women riding these centaurs snapped him out of his trance. He gulped and peeked at Jake. Such pretty women with great bodies were calling this man master…
Not just him, but all other men in the adventuring party felt a pang of jealousy. Successfully wooing even one of these women was like striking gold. They would definitely brag all over the town if they got someone like the redhead from earlier.
As the centaurs reached their place, Leilia, and Quinn gave way for them to pass.
”Man, look at them…” Vorden came beside Soma and whispered into his ears. The mage smiled bitterly and shook his head.
”We are worlds apart from that man…”
A bit ahead, Jake entered the orc village and looked around. He had transformed into his true form and even equipped his Demon Earl title, but that wasn’t enough it seemed.
Other times, lesser creatures like orcs would bow to him immediately. Within those of the evil alignment, there was a distinct class or hierarchy system. Obviously, demons or devils were at the top of the pyramid.
But because these orcs obeyed only the Tartus Dungeon master and acted according to his orders, Jake had to use force until they submitted.
”It is presumptuous that they even tried stopping you, master.” Erin said, looking at the panicked orcs in disdain.
Not every orc was a warrior. Seeing the demon’s domineering way of dealing with them, the monsters no longer tried stopping him.
”The humans are following,” Ruxa informed, looking behind.
”Ignore them,” Jake said and glanced around.
He was pleasantly surprised by the number of orcs in this village. However, when his gaze fell on some female orcs, Jake was more surprised.
”Master?” Perry noticed that gaze and followed it. Realizing what he was thinking, she covered her mouth.
”Looks like this group of orcs is a bit different…” Jake smirked.
