Chapter 74 Bulan
The inner eye is a sense that receives information in a different way. What the inner eye can see is not appearance, color, or light but deeper than that.
Moku could sense the aura that was on a person's body and the light that enveloped them. Usually, the light that enveloped the animal's body was a brown light and a green light for orcs.
At first, Moku thought this light followed the shape of the source's body so that there was no difference between the physical form of seeing with the eye and seeing with the inner eye.
But Moku was wrong...
In order to harmonize his orc instincts and senses, Moku's brain will automatically activate the inner eye when he sees an alraune who has a 100% female upper body.
So as long as there is alraune nearby, Moku's inner eye will continue to be active.
And at this moment what he saw through his inner eye was not the perfect figure of Luna but the figure of the sister who likes to make her little brother a guinea pig.
Moku didn't understand what was really going on and why he was seeing Bulan in this place.
'Did Bulan also transmigrate into this world when she died?' Moku asked in his heart.
"Ehh? Bulan? hmm... I don't understand what you mean.. ah.. I'm Rafflesia Luna Arnoldii, or you can just call me Luna because my name is quite long hehe" Luna smiled kindly and greeted them gently.
The cold sweat on Moku's forehead dripped even faster.
'They have the same nature' said Moku in his heart.
Bulan is a shy girl, she will be seen as a friendly person when first met. She would smile and greet in a friendly manner just like Luna did now.
However, what actually happened was that she was holding back her scientific spirit to research the person she had just met.
Like a master swindler, Bulan will appear friendly and make it easy for others to get along with her before she begins to show her true fangs.
Moku's alert alarm was ringing louder and louder. He looked at Luna's behavior very carefully, not wanting to let anything out of his sight.
Seeing that Moku didn't say anything, his other friends didn't say anything either. It was good manners not to speak when two leaders were talking to each other.
"Hmm.. then which one of you is named KuMoku.. eehh.. oh yeah.. Ku is a title right?? so his name must be Moku, am I right?" Luna tilted her head cutely.
Moku who was still deep in his thoughts didn't answer. There are too many memories that remind him of Bulan's figure from Luna.
The style of speech, tone of voice, manner of speech, and the way she tilts her head when asking questions are very similar to Bulan figure that Moku knows. For that Moku has to determine whether Luna is a transmigrated Bulan like him or not.
"Agnav" Moku said one name.
"Agnav??? who is that?? hmm... do orcs have another language when they speak?? Ornell do we have a translator???" Luna turned to Ornell and asked.
Moku's heart was a little relieved, even though Luna was very similar to Bulan and possibly had the same soul but it seemed that Bulan did not carry her memories when reborn into this world like Moku.
Moku's face after the second evolution became more and more similar to his former human face. So if Bulan still has her memory and hears the name he says then she will definitely know if the orc standing in front of her is her younger brother from their previous life.
If Luna still had her past memories then Moku would not negotiate and immediately ran away from this place. He would find another way to activate the orc's inner eye without the alraune's help.
However, if Luna doesn't have her past memory then this is an advantage for Moku. Just as Bulan understands how to invite Moku into her dangerous experiment, Moku also knows Bulan's nature well.
And it seems Luna has the same nature as Bulan. Luna's desk is very neat, and although there are hundreds of strange types of leaves on her desk, all of them are neatly arranged according to the classifications she makes. This trait is the same as Bulan's because she has fairly severe OCD.
Bulan's OCD is also what saved Moku's life several times. Bulan once gave him an orange drink containing cyanide and said it was orange juice. However, Moku clearly saw that Bulan took this drink from the refrigerator which she used to fill with harmful chemicals.
Moku shouted angrily and accused Bulan of wanting to kill him "Did you want to kill me!! I know for sure that's cyanide juice not some fucking orange juice!!"
Bulan still insists that this is orange juice "what do you mean?? don't accuse me of anything wrong.. this is orange juice, orange juice that can make you jump higher than a flying eagle.. hehehe"
"What you mean jump high is my soul right!!!" Moku was furious. However, the Moon is still adamant that the drink is orange juice.
After a long back and forth, Bulan finally admitted that there was a cyanide mixture in this drink, but she insisted that the cyanide in it would not be dangerous because it was mixed with some substances that could weaken the effect of cyanide.

As a result, the drink can tighten muscles, increase their elasticity, and strengthen the energy that can be released. This drink is like a steroid that can make the muscles of motion become many times stronger.
Bulan believes that by drinking this Moku's muscles will get stronger and make him jump higher. Moku's determination to refuse the drink wavered, he asked Moon if she was sure of her findings and of course, Bulan was very sure.
After asking and confirming it many times with Bulan, Moko was finally tempted and drank the orange juice.
Then..
He ended up in a coma for 3 weeks in the hospital and almost meet his dead teacher's soul.
Moku woke up from his past memories and looked back at Luna who looked like Bulan in his inner eye.
"Ah.. I'm sorry I said something strange to the Alraune leader. I'm just amazed by your beauty" Moku smiled and resumed speaking fluently as usual.
"hmm?? beauty? Aren't orcs very disgusted to see alraune? hmm.. you're really weird KuMoku.. hmmm... you're KuMoku right? Should I call you Moku to be more familiar? Is it because of evolution? hmm.. .changed shape? did the bottom one change shape too? hmmm... Human? hmm... Attack? hmm.." Luna gave a long series of strange questions.
One question with another question is sometimes unrelated. There are completely incomprehensible questions.
Luna seemed to be talking and asking herself but her eyes that looked at Moku seemed like she was communicating with him. Luna continued to talk and ask incoherently but Moku remained silent.
Ornell couldn't believe Luna had relapsed again. She could only complain in her heart and pat her forehead.
Moku understands what really happened, like Bulan, Luna has a very fast thought process. She was about to ask about 'A' but her brain already concluded about 'D'.
So sometimes her tongue was not able to follow the speed of her thought. This often makes it sound like she's talking to herself, laughing to herself, and coming to her own conclusions.
When she spoke many people did not understand what she was really saying. However, this wasn't Luna's fault but the other person who was too slow to think so they couldn't follow what she was saying.
The best and most correct way to talk to someone who has a quick thought process like this is to stay quiet and wait for her to ask the final question.
"...then what is your purpose in coming to our place?" Luna stopped asking.
"I came to tell you that the Toxic Jungle is no longer safe. Human mages will soon come to this place and you will be in a dangerous situation" Moku only answered Luna's last question.
"Mage? hmm.. Artifact? hmm... treasure? hmm.. human? hmm.. elf? hmm.. What?..." Luna again gave a long series of questions and once again Moku was silent.
Ornell who was standing behind Luna was stunned. She didn't think that Moku could face Luna who was relapsing.
Ornell remembered when she first became Luna's right-hand man. How annoyed she was when she answered Luna's questions one by one just to find out that she already knew the answer.
She cursed in her heart because Luna asked a question that she already knew the answer to. But gradually Ornell found out that Luna was not asking a question that she already knew the answer but Luna was able to answer the question with her quick thought process before Ornell could answer it.
Even so, Ornell took a long time to figure this out, so she was very surprised to see Moku, who was meeting Luna for the first time, understand this.
"... well I agree!" Luna suddenly said with a big smile.
Moku who was waiting for Luna to ask the last question was suddenly surprised. He didn't understand what Luna had agreed to.
"What do you mean?" Moku is confused.
"Don't you want to ask me to be your wife? I agree!" Luna answered.
"Hah!" all those present in the room were stunned with wide eyes.
The air around Nezena and Nerphyl turned cold like a blizzard on an iceberg.
Before the bloodshed occurred, Moku cut in with a loud voice, "Luna! I don't want to ask you to be my wife! I've had enough with three 'Ne'! I just asked Alraune to join us!" Cold sweat dripped down Moku's forehead.
This is what often happens to someone who has a fast thought process. They sometimes get wrong conclusions or jump to conclusions too quickly.
Wrong conclusions occur not because their logical thinking is wrong, but because they do not consider other factors such as emotions and the situation of the other person's heart.
As is the case today. Luna concludes that Moku wants to invite her to join the monster kingdom that he will build. So the fastest way to unite and control Alraune with other monster races is through marriage between Moku and Luna like what happened with sylph.
But she didn't see the emotions and moods of Moku and the two lionesses behind him. So that caused Luna wrong conclusions.
"Oh??" Luna was confused.
