40 Chapter 40. Orcs Secret Hideout
I hope Aisha didn't cancel my dinner plan just because that old geezer kicked me out of the guild, Myne thought while heading toward the forest to start his old job. Although now he can't use the guild channels to find all kinds of monster's information and their location to steal their rare skills but that is okay too, he can just use the old way to search them in the forest, anyway he is not in a hurry to acquire more skills, he already has enough skills to bombard any kind of enemy and it probably going take a lot of time to level up them. So for some time, he is just going to level up those skills instead of running around doing other people's tasks just for a little amount of money.
Soon while thinking weird nonsense, Myne comes into the inner forest where he last time kills those three unlucky Orcs who were chilling under the tree.
"This is quite strange, I already come around 3 km deep into the forest but I didn't saw even a single animal or monster till now? Where the hell they are all gone?? Don't tell me they are all on the vacation," Myne said while looking around confusedly.
But after walking a little farther Myne unexpectedly saw a big hole in the middle of the road.
Huh? Did someone set a trap in the middle of the road?? Now, this is interesting, but which idiot set up this trap??? And he didn't even cover its mouth, Myne thought while coming in front of the trap and looking inside it.
The trap is 3 meters deep, barbed spears were embedded inside the whole trap, and in the middle of the trap, there was lying a dead big bear. Clearly either this bear is blind that it didn't see such a big hole in the middle of the road and fell into it, or he is trying to catch its prey but unluckily fell into it and directly secure the ticket to the afterlife.
Brrrrrr....
F*ck! Someone is coming!!! Myne thought and just after hearing the loud voice, he hurriedly run toward the nearby bush and hide in it.
Just as Myne enters the bush, two 2 meters tall green Orcs appear on the other side of the forest, arguing with each other in a weird language which of course Myne didn't understand.
Soo close, thank god most of the orcs didn't know how to close their mouth, otherwise today I would probably be caught off guard by them. Too careless looks like I need more training, Myne thought, while silently peeking at two Orcs. Even though he could still kill them both without any problem even if they attack him surprisedly but then how would he find out what is going on in this forest? This forest is his territory, he has been hunting here for many years, and never even once he saw any dangerous monsters here but now out of nowhere those Orcs start popping up one after another, this is clearly not good news. So from now, he is just going to follow them to find out why there are so many Orcs in the forest and where are they all coming from, instead of killing them for their bodies and skills.
By the way, let's see what kinds of skills do they have...

Can hide the enhancement effects like energy glow, unique auras, etc.
F*ck!!! No wonder I can't find them even till they come so close to me, so they are using such a pervert skill, this is clearly cheating, Myne thought angrily and without wasting even a single thought he immediately steal all their skills and pastes abilities to a nearby tree.
Now let's how you guys hide from others, Hehehe...
While Myne laughing crazily in his mind like a psycho, both Orcs finally stop fighting vocally and hurriedly start their work. Orc No.1, carefully enters the trap and after pulling out all 100 kg bear body from spears, he put it on his steel-like shoulders and shouted something which Myne didn't understand again, but Orc No.2 doesn't have such a problem, he just nodded his head and after sitting down on his kneel, he put his right hand into the trap and pull out the Orc No.1.
So powerful! That guy literally put out an Orc weight of around 300 kg ( Weight of Orc No.1 and bear together ) by himself with just a little bit of effort? What do they eat that makes them so powerful? Myne thought enviously. Clearly, he forgets about their levels, well this is also normal since most of the time Myne only focuses on others' skills rather than their levels, and because till now levels didn't play any kind of important role in any battles, so Myne mind also subconsciously starts ignoring them.
Oops! They are gone, I should hurriedly follow them before they walk too far away, Myne thought while stealthily following them. As he was drooling on Orc's physical strength, and start daydreaming, like how good it would be if he also had such power. And because of this, both Orcs went home with the fresh prey, leaving her behind.
.....
1 Hour later.
"Just how far their camp is? I have been following them like a ghost nonstop for nearly an hour but I still can't see their hideout anywhere, and now I even forget how far I walk into the forest, this is the first time I even come so deep into the forest," Myne said tiredly. Even though in this entire secret mission he didn't encounter any kind of danger thanks to his two meat shields who were attracting all troubles happily for him but this still tiring since he have to walk carefully all the time so his meat shields can't find out about him.
But as Myne complained nonstop while walking, he soon reached a steep slope, and the trees around him disappeared slowly. Two Orcs walking in front of him also stop for a while and then they suddenly jump down from the slope.
Seeing this Myne hurriedly come to their place and looked down but after seeing the view in front of him he quickly lay on the ground and dared to lift his head.
My goodness!!! Why the hell there is an Orc settlement in such a barren place? Myne thought and after waiting for a while and confirming that nothing abnormal going on, he slowly peeked into the Orc settlement.
The Orc settlement in front of Myne is a medium size settlement with an Orc population of around 30 to 40 or maybe more but as far as Myne can see maximum Orc is still under 50. Around the settlement, there is a 2-meter big wooden fence border with a single open entrance guarded by two powerful-looking Orcs. Inside the settlement, there are many small huts made of wood, and their roofs and other empty places are covered by hides. As for the type of settlement, then this should be a military type settlement since Myne didn't see any old or young orcs in the settlement, clearly, they didn't bring their family with them.
Orc's built such a big settlement just a little distance away from the town and no one knows about it? What the f*ck that fatty town lord is doing, that he didn't find out such a big threat hiding under his nose?? What if they launch a full-scale attack on town??? Myne said annoyingly while observing the settlement carefully. Even though he didn't care about town and most of its people, if they die then die, this has nothing to do with him but there are still some important things in the town that he didn't want to lose, like his parent's house, his lovely Big Sister Maya, Aisha, June, etc.
"Huh? Wait a minute...Is that a woman?? But what the hell she is doing there???" Myne shouted surprisedly in a low voice while looking at the entrance of the settlement. In front of the entrance stood a big one eye ugly Orc who is carrying a normal-looking middle-aged woman on his shoulder like a sack of flour. The woman's face is toward his back and her butt is just some centimeter away from his ugly face, whom he once in a while touched with his nose while inhaling her body or maybe butt smell. Even though that Orc has an ear-to-ear grin on his face but the woman's continuous crying and shouts destroying his happy mood, which is probably not a good thing for that woman.
Hmm...Seems like today someone is going to have a lot of fun. Sigh...I hope that she can hold on till someone find her and rescue her, but looking at the guy who is carrying her I hardly doubt that she can survive till tomorrow morning. Yes, if her pussy is made of steel then there is a chance that she could live some more days without any problem. By the way, since that guy who is carrying that woman himself is more than 2.5 meters tell them what would be the size of his little brother when it becomes hard? Myne pondered seriously. "It seems I must solve this mystery in order to quench my thirst for knowledge and help other vulnerable women prepare themselves for this kind of danger."
"Yes, that's right everything is for knowledge and the greater good," Myne spoke while nodding his head.
But now it would be better if I should get out of here before someone find out about me. Those Orcs have quite a lot of weird skills, if by any chance someone discovered me here peeking into their settlement, then it won't be easy to escape from the assault of nearly 50 orcs, Myne thought while slowly and carefully retreating. And After making enough distance from slope, without wasting any more time Myne hurriedly use leg enhancement, sight enhancement, and swift feet and start running toward the town.
Although Myen wanted to kill some scattered Orcs so he can steal their skills and gain some levels but he still have to make some preparation before meeting Aisha for the date. So now he can't any more time here while fighting those greeny muscular guys. Anyway, those Orcs are not going anywhere, and he has more than enough time to deal with them.
