3 Transmigrated Orc
{Meer Calendar, March 10, 1 Year of Demon War}
{Bog Forest}
A tropical forest with rainfall of 1200 mm per year, which made the forest soil fertile and moist. It was located close to the Wolf Slopes mountains and this made this forest have a cold climate.
Cold air descended from the mountains and swept across the forest, shrouding it with a cold mist. The temperature at night in this forest could reach 18-20 degrees Celsius and rise to 25 degrees Celsius during the day.
With large and tall trees covering the sky, the Bog forest land is covered with moss and other plants that are parasites for these trees.
Many medicinal plants, mushrooms, fruit, roots, and rare insects are found in the Bog forest. Making it a treasure haven for adventurers.
Bog Forest is very wide, it is the second largest forest after Lawsii Forest. The main inhabitants of this forest are mutated animals and monsters.
A monster looked at the orcs and goblins at work with his hands folded. His green eyes saw every detail of their movement like a strict boss watching his subordinates work.
The monster was the young orc.
He was recalling his battle with the mage last night. Even though it all happened so fast. He knew that every millisecond could have ended in his death.
"Ku?" A Goblin greeted and lowered her head.
"Has everything been collected?" The young orc that the goblin called 'Ku' answered.
"Report! Collected 80 sets of armor, 200 Swords, 50 Greatswords, 300 Arrows, 50 Bows, 60 Shields, 300 Spears, 100 Leather Armors, 30 Iron Axes, and other equipment such as clothes, pants, shoes, and accessories that humans use" the Goblin replied.
"We only need iron, throw away anything that isn't iron. Remove the wood from the spear and take the tip of the spear. How about food?" He asked.
"The food carriage that caught fire was rescued. There is still more than 200 kg of food," the goblin reported.
'enough for the tribe..'
"What about the meat?" orcs prefer to eat meat than any other food.
"There's only about 50 kg of meat in the food cart," Goblin replied in a trembling voice.
She was afraid that if there was a shortage of meat the orcs would eat them.
"Tam.. I told you, Orcs and Goblins actually have the same bloodline. If you've seen a Hobgoblin then you'll definitely believe me." He answered in a soft voice.
"Yes.. My Ku!" Tam is still nervous but the shaking is gone.
'Ku' looked at Tam who had stopped shaking. He sighed in his heart.
Actually, the goblins had cute figures, that was if they weren't covered in dirt and mud.
They looked like Dobby with green skin and no wrinkles. They had big eyes, a big head, and a slender neck. He wanted to pet their heads, especially Tam's because of her cute frightened face. He was like a cat who wanted to stroke a hamster's head.
"Ku?" Tam was shaking again, she felt like there was a beast that wanted to keep her as a pet.
"Oh.. Sorry, Tam. I was just reminiscing about the archery of the goblins. You guys were a big help, Tam. Otherwise, Goku and his team might have had a hard time holding back the guards." 'Ku' woke up from his dream. He quickly racked his brains to keep the conversation from becoming awkward.
"Thank you, we're happy to help!" Tam answered with joy .
"You guys have been very helpful Tam. We're short on meat, and there's no time to hunt anymore. So can you help us separate the flesh of these humans from their bones?" He again gave the order in a firm voice.
"Yes, Sir!" Tam answered firmly and gave a salute.
"Boku, help Tam put the iron tools into the wagon. We should be moving out of here before the sun goes down!" he gave orders to the orc beside him.
"Yes, Sir!" Boku Answered.
'Their training seems to be working'
The Orcs and Goblins were again busy with their tasks. He saw Goblins doing the deboning process on humans.
'Am I a psychopath? or…'
He slaughtered dozens of humans at night and minced human flesh in the morning. There was no feeling of disgust or discomfort in his heart.
It was just like watching the process of slaughtering cows. This made him feel that he was not normal.
He thought of two possibilities, maybe he was already a psychopath from before he was reborn or his new body took away his humanity.
Reborn? New body? Yep..
He was a transmigrator.
He came from an island nation. In his world there were only humans, and there were no creatures with intelligence equal to them. Humans ruled over everything, land, sea, and space.
Despite being the ruling species of the world, the humans in that world were so weak that hitting them at a certain point could cause their death.
Humans being the apex predators in the food chain had no enemies but themselves. So that in the end they enslaved and became slaves just to survive.
In his youth, Moku dreamed of being able to pierce the sky with his punch. Therefore he practiced from dawn to midnight.
He practiced until his muscles cramped and his bones broke. He won dozens of MMA fights above ground or Underground. Moku was undefeated.
But the human body had limitations. No matter how hard he practiced he would reach the limits of his body. Exercise that was too strenuous would also cause side effects on his body.
Moku did not give up, he continued to train for decades. He believed the limit was for those who were weak. He believed that he would transcend the limitations of the human body.
Until finally, he began to age. He began to tire quickly, his body began to feel heavy, and the wounds he had experienced began to affect him.
Moku almost gave up. His body was not strong enough to bear the weight of his training. Until finally he was paralyzed and could not practice martial arts anymore. It was then that Moku realized that the human body had an impenetrable Boundary.
The world was like a circle, no matter how fast you run you would return to the same point, no matter how strong you are you would become weak again, and no matter how rich you are you will end up on the ground without carrying a single wealth.
Moku realized the reality of this world as he lay paralyzed on his bed.
His arms which had been able to break through walls with a punch were now just bones covered in skin.
The muscles he had built up by lifting tens of kilos were now shrinking.
His eyes, which could even read the movements of flies, were now starting to blur.
All his glory, splendor, and strength were lost with age.
Moku didn't regret that he aged, what he regrets was that he was unable to transcend the limits of his human body.
He wanted to jump higher than the birds flying in the sky.
He wanted to be able to hit through the mountains.
He wanted to run past the speed of sound.
Moku regretted being born in this world without miracles.
There was a proverb in his country that says 'life is reluctant to die, do not want to'. This proverb really described his life at that time.
Every night, he fell asleep and hoped not to wake up again. Until finally that wish came true. But only for him in that world.
-----------------------------
{Meer Calendar, January 14, 8 Years Before Demon War}
A baby orc opened his eyes, he looked surprised at the sight from the ceiling that he didn't recognize. His sparkling eyes showed an intelligence that shouldn't exist in a baby.
'Did I get kicked out of the apartment because I was late paying?' Then he remembered that he didn't live in an apartment. 'kidnapping..' a new possibility just started to appear in his mind. 'meehhh... who cares?' he didn't care and went back to sleep.
The baby was named Moku and he was reborn in a new different world.
A strange world where humans don't control everything. A strange world where survival becomes the goal of life especially if you are a monster that is hunted and considered a pest.
Every day new ideas to survive emerge. Every day there are new challenges, new enemies, and new experiences. Moku wanted to keep getting stronger and make his tribe strong. Even though he was born a monster, he loved his new body.
The life of orcs could be said to be very simple, they wake up, hunt, and eat. If they have women in the tribe then their night time is spent with sex.
Moku was born along with Six other baby orcs. Moku never met his mother nor intended to see her. Moku didn't want to see anything that would make him do something stupid. Like freeing their mothers.
As a race of monsters that only has one gender, women were extremely valuable to the orcs.
Therefore Moku spent his baby time observing his new body.
The growth process of orcs was very fast. Orcs have a body metabolism that makes all the food that enters their body to be absorbed quickly. So that at the age of one year a baby orc can run.
At the age of 5 years, the orc's body will make all the nutrients it absorbs into muscle. The fat reserves in an orc's body are only 10% of its body mass.
It is also at this age that the orc's extraordinary immune system is at work. The orc body can heal wounds in seconds. This regeneration does not only occur in the outer flesh and skin but also in the bones and internal organs. Even an Orc could heal a pierced heart, provided he hadn't bled to death.
When he was 6 years old, Moku did an experiment on his own body. He wanted to know the stamina limit of the orc's body and what would happen if the orc trained until it fainted.
Moku chose the hill behind the tribal camp as his experimental site. This hill was still in the territory of the orcs so no wild animals or mutated animals lived here.
The experiment started by carrying a rock and then tying it on his back. When he felt the bond of the rock was strong, Moku began to climb the hill behind the tribe.
After an hour of climbing, Moku started to feel the heat from all over his body. The soles of his feet began to ache, his back that had been scratched by the rock began to bleed, and his knees began to tremble. But Moku forced his body and kept climbing.
After three hours of climbing, his vision began to blur, the sweat dripping down his forehead began to feel cold, the rock he was carrying felt heavier, his palms began to feel cold, and his breathing began to become irregular. But he kept climbing.
After five hours of climbing, his heart was beating very fast, his vision turned black, and his head froze. He kept trying to climb until he fell unconscious.
Moku lost consciousness for more than 2 hours. Moku opened his eyes to see the sky turning red and the sun starting to set.
After he woke up, he felt refreshed as usual. His fresh body really surprised him because he knew his body would feel heavy after collapsing from overtraining. Worse yet, he could get typhus which made him have to lie down with a high body temperature.
However, the orc's body's metabolic system was extremely fast, regenerating all the lost energy from its body, Swollen or torn muscles returned to normal, new cells were formed to replace brain cells that died from lack of oxygen, and all of that was only paid with a little hunger like the one Moku was feeling right now.
The orc's body was designed to achieve the maximum level of muscle growth. All kinds of risks due to excess exercise can be neutralized by their bodies.
Exercising too much makes the body feel stressed and produce excess cortisol, this will cause insomnia so that the body cannot restore itself by sleeping.
But luckily.
Orcs do not need sleep to stimulate the body's recovery system, they just need to stop moving for a few tens of minutes so that their body can return to normal as soon as possible.
On that day Moku discovered a fact that made him fall in love with his new body. The Orc regeneration eliminates all the risks of excess exercise but keeps the benefits.
Knowing this fact, Moku made his training routine.
Wake up before sunrise—Practice until you pass out—Wake up refreshed—Hunt alone—Eat until your stomach is full —Practice until you faint—Wake up—Shower—Go home—Sleep.
He continued to do this routine every day without taking a break. The other orcs looked at Moku with strange looks. They thought that this young orc had gone crazy. From their sight, Moku was like an orc who liked to torture himself until he passed out.
The orcs who saw Moku going crazy started to stay away from him and Moku became a loner orc.
Two years passed, and Moku felt his body getting stronger and stronger. Moku only needed to be patient for a few more years to be able to jump as high as a flying bird and hit through the mountains.
Moku smirked proudly at his efforts. His ears vibrated hearing a noise.
The noise came from the tribe camp gate. Moku was curious and ran towards the source of the commotion. Then Moku's eyes were dumbfounded and his face became gloomy.
The horde of adult orcs dragged five female humans.
