The Record of Orc Civilization

The tug of war between Nerphyl and Mutated Tiger reaches stalemates. None of them can excel over the other.

Nerphyl had to divide her concentration to resist the laws of nature that wanted to corrode her mind and pull the Mutated Tiger's soul out of its body. Meanwhile, the Mutated Tiger couldn't move because of the green energy chains holding its body while trying to pull its soul back and pull Nerphyl's soul out of the blue glowing ball.

As time went on, Nerphyl became more and more frustrated. Her concentration was dwindling and if she let her guard down even a little then the consequences would be dire. She can lose consciousness and become a completely wild animal or her soul can be pulled out of the blue glowing ball and become food for the Mutated Tiger's Soul.

"Shit!!! Give up already you dirty cat!!" shouted Nerphyl in frustration.

Mutated Tiger felt the same way as Nerphyl. Her consciousness began to gradually disappear and her energy was drained rapidly. But her fear of death made Mutated Tiger continue to fight without giving up.

"ROOAARRR!!" The Mutated Tiger roared trying to intimidate Nerphyl.

Seeing if this continued that things would get even more dangerous, Nerphyl gritted her teeth. She had an idea but she hesitated to do it. However, if she continues to buy time, the opportunity to carry out the idea will disappear.

Nerphyl gritted her teeth and apologized to the other monsters in her heart. Her blue eyes shining brightly, Nerphyl contacted all the sylphs and asked for their help.

"I'M THE QUEEN OF SYLPH!!! Do you think can defeat me? Face my army then!!"

And at that moment, thousands of sylphs appeared suddenly. They have different clothes and come from different places. Of course, they came when called by Nerphyl to leave all their busyness whether it was when they were herding animals, helping with construction, hiding from Quadruple Arachnids, or using CCTV ability at headquarters.

Of course, before their departure, the sylphs had already asked the other monsters for permission. And of course, Mige's face who was leading the battle at headquarters turned pale. But he still allowed them to help Nerphyl.

For Mige and the orcs, getting stronger was more important than fighting the Quadruple Arachnids. It's just that without the CCTV capabilities of the sylph the headquarters would be blind. But the battle is currently in transition to the fifth phase and he is very sure if Goku wants to fight longer.

Iathra and Lesnen flew towards the blue glowing ball.

"Nerphyl, are you currently doing the Vithaen Possession Art?" Iathra asked with a look of admiration.

"You're right! I've had a tug-of-war with Mutated Tiger for who knows how long. We're currently stalemates." replied Nerphyl curtly.

"Nerphyl, what can we do to help you?" asked Lesnen. His eyes were fixed on the Mutated Tiger with his body trembling with fear but his gaze that showed great curiosity.

"Help me pull the chain and take out the Mutated Tiger's Soul. Everyone else please disturb the Mutated Tiger as much as you can. Make her unable to concentrate. We have to do this quickly! So you can go back to do your job" Nerphyl ordered.

"Yes, My Queen!!" the entire sylph answered firmly.

The tug-of-war between Nerphyl and the Mutated Tiger turned into a battle of thousands of sylphs against a single mutated animal.

Thousands of sylphs flew and pulled the chains. Thousands more flew towards the Mutated Tiger and displayed the abilities of the notorious sylphs.

"ROAR!!!" The Mutated Tiger roared in anger and its concentration was split.

Mutated Tiger's soul began to slowly leak out of her body. Things became unbalanced, Mutated Tiger was outnumbered. Even though the sylphs couldn't hurt her, her immobile body became the butt of the sylphs' pranks.

There was a sylph screaming in her ear, a sylph plucking her whisker, someone plucking her fur, someone punching her in the eye, and someone poking out her nostrils. Mutated Tiger's soul slowly leaked out of her body making her consciousness disappear even more.

The white light emanating from the Mutated Tiger's body was pulled by seven chains emanating from the blue glowing ball. Slowly the white light entered the blue glowing ball and the Mutated Tiger fell unconscious. Even so, her moving chest showed that the Mutated Tiger was still alive, only that her body was empty without a soul.

Nerphyl felt like something had entered her soul, adding to, changing, and completing what was in her soul. She needs time to eat all of the Mutated Tiger's soul after that she will have a different soul from Sylph's soul.

Nerphyl saw the sylphs looking at her worriedly and smiled "Thank you all for helping me. You can return to your previous duties" said Nerphyl softly.

She was very happy at this time, the sylphs still didn't forget her even though now they no longer only had her as queen. The joy she had right now could not be removed from her desire to remain the queen of the sylphs.

"Whenever you wish, My Queen," said Lesnen, bowing his head in respect. Then he disappeared back to his duty to look after livestock in Wilwatikta Kingdom.

"Nerphyl, help me too when it's my Vithaen Possession Art turn okay" Iathra said as she waved her hand and returned to her task of displaying the war footage at headquarters.

"Of course! We'll fight together again when it's your turn for the Vithaen Possession Art" said Nerphyl as she waved to the sylphs who disappeared one by one back to their original duties.

Until there was only Nerphyl and the soulless body of the Mutated Tiger in this place. Nerphyl regained her joyous heart and refocused her concentration on eating the Mutated Tiger's soul.

Nerphyl seemed to be in a very vivid dream. There she followed all the memories of the Mutated Tiger throughout her life. And Moku is right, Mutated Tiger is a type of weak-to-be-strong mutated animal.

She was born as an ordinary animal but for some reason her body began to mutate and become a mutated animal. This is where Nerphyl learns how an ordinary animal becomes a mutated animal.

Mutations occur not because of eating rare plants or mana organs, nor because they adapt to the surrounding environment. However, animals that become mutated animals are caused because their souls are preferred by mana over other animals. That's why there are children from mutated animals who are born into ordinary animals, this is because mana doesn't choose the soul of the child.

This knowledge made Nerphyl discover that mana is not just a random energy that moves but has a consciousness of its own. She remembered the strongest mage that Moku had ever faced, Deak, who also became a Mana Child because he was loved by mana.

Therefore, Lesnen's efforts to breed mutated animals were futile. Nerphyl took a deep breath and was about to share this knowledge with Moku and the others later. Right now she had to focus on eating the Mutated Tiger's soul as soon as possible.

Slowly all the memories of the Mutated Tiger entered Nerphyl's consciousness but this time there was no law of nature forcing her to turn into an animal. Nerphyl was able to control the memory at will.

Although she could feel what the Mutated Tiger feeling but her consciousness was not disturbed and Nerphyl would still be a Nerphyl after this process was completed. Gradually the Mutated Tiger's soul was depleted until it was all absorbed by Nerphyl's soul.

Then her soul began to change. The blue glowing ball shone brighter and brighter until the entire place was covered in blue light. Nerphyl's consciousness was pulled deeper and deeper into her soul. Nerphyl allowed herself to be carried deeper until the moment she stopped she saw a large seal in front of her.

The seal was shaped like a very large gate with thousands of strange symbols that she didn't understand maybe even after this Nerphyl wouldn't be able to remember the shape of these symbols before her eyes. Nerphyl knew that all she needed to do was push through this gate and she would break the seal on her body into a new being that could use mana.

The impatient Nerphyl drew closer to the gate. Her hand trembled with joy as she touched the gate. But at that moment her consciousness seemed to be pulled by something stronger.

To someplace...

In a dark room with only a dim candle to light it, an old woman sat reading a thick old book. The chair she sat on was like a throne made of bones that it was not clear what creature they came from. The table in front of her is made of mahogany wood with carvings like a skull on the front edge.

Her hair was white as ash, her skin was green like leaves, her face was filled with lumps that kept oozing black pus. She smiled and exposed her teeth as black as charcoal. Her red eyes looked at Nerphyl from head to toe as if she was assessing this new meat that had come before her.

She raised her hand and said "Pay the price, child"
