Mark of Shame

Leaf arrived at the eastern wing of the Blood Skull Arena, which housed a large bathhouse for the rat militia.

Contrary to what the Holy Light humans conjured up, the advanced orcs actually loved cleanliness.

Under certain conditions, the clan warriors would bathe every day. They would apply ointment that emitted a strange fragrance on their entire bodies to cover up their strong bestial auras.

They believed that while cleaning the filth, they could also purify their souls. A warrior who was elegant and radiant would be able to show his ancestral spirit's glory.

If they poured the secret medicine with the ancient formula into boiling hot water, or if they poured it into a steam bath through pressurized and spraying pipes, the spirit energy contained in the secret medicine would be able to quickly penetrate into their bodies. Soaking one's soul was the best way to recover quickly after crazy training and fighting.
