The Record of Orc Civilization

Then Moku lifted the Orb Intent above his head with one hand.

"HEN--"

His other hand, which wasn't holding the Orb Intent, performed a dab. Moving both hands in a clockwise motion, Moku placed the Orb Intent in front of his waist and tapped it with both hands.

·?θm The Orb Intent spun rapidly like a spinning top, while dazzling light radiated from within. With enthusiasm, Moku drew that light into his hands and tapped it against his chest.

"--SHIN!!!"

Suddenly, his body was enveloped in a dazzling blue light. The blue light began to fade, starting from the tips of his hands and feet.

Moku appeared to be wearing the striking Kekayon Armor. Within the chest plate of the armor, a pulsating Dragon Core emitted energy. All the eyes in the vicinity widened in astonishment.

The men stood there with mouths agape, their hearts pounding as if they were the ones inside the Kekayon Armor. They suddenly felt an intense desire to ride a horse and sing at the top of their lungs, bursting within their hearts.

Meanwhile, the women looked on with pouting faces. They seemed to have witnessed something both repulsive and embarrassing. They felt an urge to mock and ridicule, pulsating fiercely within their hearts. Whatever it was, they just wanted to stay away from the creature wearing that dazzling armor.

"WOW."

"EEW."

Two different expressions from two different genders filled the silence of what should have been a tense atmosphere. The Asuras' eyes welled up with tears as they gazed at the Kekayon Armor worn by Moku. They couldn't wait to evolve again if it meant they could also wear such cool armor.

Nevare, Nediria, Nerphyl, and Gupita took a step back, distancing themselves from their husbands who looked incredibly embarrassing. Their pouting faces seemed to reject the idea of Moku coming to their chambers later that night.

Raiden, still wide-eyed, couldn't contain himself from speaking. "What the hell," he thought, wanting to join the other male monsters to get a closer look at the Kekayon Armor. However, he still had some sanity left and shook his head.

"Is that the God's Form you possess? I admit it's incredibly powerful!" he exclaimed, snapping the other elf men out of their daze. They all nodded in agreement with Raiden's words.

Meanwhile, the women present there looked at the male elves strangely. "How do you know it's powerful if you haven't tested its strength?" they thought to themselves.

"Hmm... Since you're so eager for a fight, I won't disappoint you!" Raiden shouted as he suddenly began moving his hands in the air.

[Soul's God: Lich Form]!

Suddenly, bone pillars burst out from the ground and enveloped Raiden's body. Similar to Deak's use of his God's Form, Raiden's body was lifted into the air with mana swirling towards him.

The bones that covered Raiden's body transformed him into what seemed like a Lich Armor. This Lich form appeared like a decaying, living corpse, with pale, limp skin. The protruding bones gave the impression of a hidden skeleton beneath the loosely hanging robe. The Lich's eyes glowed with a greenish-yellow light, hinting at boundless wisdom and evil.

Around the Lich, a dark aura radiated in all directions. This aura consisted of highly intense magical energy, creating a black mist that enveloped its surroundings. Mystical rays emanated from the Lich's body, reflecting the power and immortality possessed by the Soul God.

The Lich wore a tattered and torn robe, giving it a worn-out appearance. However, within the tears, ancient symbols could be seen glowing with magical power. The robe exuded a mysterious and terrifying aura, as if revealing the boundless power possessed by the Soul God in the form of a Lich.

Furthermore, the Lich Form also had decaying and withered hands, with long, sharp claws. Every movement of the Lich's hands reflected expertise in dark magic and deadly strength.

Raiden's appearance had transformed into something incredibly eerie and frightening. It was in stark contrast to Moku's cool and impressive (for the guys) Kekayon Armor.

However, there was something peculiar that puzzled Moku and the elves. The elves were confused because to use God's Form, a mage didn't need hand movements. Simply reciting the spell would manifest the God's Form. However, Raiden had looked quite cool when he moved his hands, so maybe they would also use the same method when transforming into their respective God's Forms.

Meanwhile, Moku had a different question. "[Soul's God: Lich Form]? Shouldn't the incantation you recite be [Mana Soul: God's Form]?" His voice from within the helmet of his Kekayon Armor sounded robotic.

The asuras immediately exclaimed with excitement upon hearing the cool voice. As for Moku's four wives, they once again took a step back and promised to lock their rooms tonight.

"Mana Soul? Oh, have you fought against a Mana Child before? HAHAHAHA, a strong person like you is definitely capable of escaping alive when facing a Level 4 Constellation Mana Child," Raiden laughed along with the nodding male elves.

The female elves, on the other hand, paid no attention to their remarks and thought to themselves, "We told you already, you haven't even exchanged blows with each other, so how do you know if he's strong or not?"

"I acknowledge your strength, so I will give you this lesson! Mana Childs is very different from typical mages. They are individuals blessed with mana since birth. Each Mana Child has their own uniqueness, which also translates into their unique mana color.

"When they reach the Level 4 Constellation Mage or, in this case, the Mana God, they will have their own distinct God's Form. This God's Form is incredibly unique and has never been found in any other mage throughout history.

"Meanwhile, regular mages do not possess a unique God's Form. To have a God's Form, a Level 4 Constellation Mage must choose a form that suits them. This form is a God's Form that was previously possessed by another mage in history.

"While it may seem like Mana Child have an advantage due to their unique God's Form, the reality is different. Each God's Form has its own power, and it must be awakened by the mage themselves.

"Regular mages inherit God's Forms from previous mages, allowing them to mimic spells discovered by the previous users of that God's Form. On the other hand, Mana Child's God's Form is merely an empty form, and they must discover the spells for that form on their own."

"So it can be likened to Common Mage's God's Form being like standing on the back of a giant, while Mana Child's God's Form is like searching for treasure in the darkness."

Upon hearing the explanation, Moku understood why Deak didn't use spells when fighting against him. Initially, Moku thought it was because Deak was still a Pseudo Mana God, but it turned out that besides that, Deak didn't inherit God's Form spells from previous mages.

"But I also want to ask you. You have a peculiar Domain, and it's the first time I've seen your God's Form. Are you a Mana Child?" Raiden asked, looking at Moku.

Moku smiled, hidden by his helmet. "Do you really think this is a Domain, and that this form of mine is a God's Form?"

"And then?"

"HAHAHAHAHAHA... Your arrogance is truly beyond reason. So arrogant that you can't even see the ants biting your feet?" Moku laughed sarcastically.

He was truly baffled that the elves in front of him preferred to believe in the existence of a new mana species in the Bog Forest rather than considering that they were just evolving monsters. Despite the vastness of the Bog Forest, it still remained the neighboring territory of the elven alliance. After centuries of entering it, wouldn't they have discovered if there were indeed new mana species inside?

Feeling the clear sarcasm in Moku's voice infuriated Raiden. With a snort, he said, "Don't get too arrogant! I admit that your God's Form and Domain are unique. But do you know that the God's Form I possess is no less formidable? It is the God's Form of a mage known as the God of Death! With this God's Form, I can harness the power of death to aid me! And with my Domain, I can make that power a reality that grips your neck!"

"Blablabla... You talk too much! Show me your strength!" Moku said, signaling the other monsters to move away.

"Fine, if that's the case!" Raiden's mana surged, and the world around him suddenly shook violently.

The elf mages knew that the battle between two Level 5 Constellation Mages was about to begin. Whoever would win this fight, the impact would still leave the earth devastated. If they stayed near the battlefield, they would also become victims.

Therefore, the nineteen elf mages flew away, intending to watch the battle from a distance. But before they could go too far, their enemies came to block their path.

"Didn't you hear what Ku said? You will all pay for hurting my sister!" Nevare, whose body was covered in lightning, spoke fiercely and vengefully.
