"What are you doing!? Let go of me!" Becky yelled out. Her legs and arms were flailing about as Tina lifted her off the ground.
"Tell me what you were doing then? Why are you trying to get close to my husband?" Tina's voice was cold. She did not mind it when Blake brought home a girl since she trusted his ability to judge people, but that did not mean she would just let any girl try to slide up next to him.
"Tina…. You know she can't resist my charm effect, so just let her go. Becky, go sit with your people. Do not anger my wives." Blake's voice rang out. He did not want confrontation at this time.
Tina snorted and tossed the girl to the side, causing her to tumble to the ground. Becky stood up and dusted herself off, before pointing at Tina, "Bitch! Do you think you can get away with treating me like this!?" She took out her weapon and pointed it at Tina. Because she had gotten so close to Blake, her sense of rationality had disappeared. Her only thought was to want to be near Blake and have him have his way with her. This thought was pushing all other thoughts out of her mind.
"Becky, you stupid bitch get over here and sit down now, or I will force you to sit!" Frank stood up. He was like Blake and did not wish for confrontation, especially with such a powerful line up! He knew each one of these people could probably destroy South City if they wished to.
*Bang!*
Gunfire went off, and a stinging pain was felt on Becky's cheek. Everyone turned to look at Blake, who was putting away a pistol. His cold eyes fell on Becky as he said: "I said sit down. You say one more thing about my wife, and I will toss you into a goblin den."
Even Becky, who was under Blake's charm effect, felt a very cold shiver run down her spine as she lowered her head and walked over towards Frank and the rest. She sat down and did not dare raise her head anymore. She could only hold her cheek. She felt if she even looked in that direction, she just might die.
Ricky had yet to say a word, but he could sense the tension in the air. He looked at Blake, whose expression turned back to normal, and said: 'I apologize. She can get crazy sometimes."
"It's not all her fault. My race has a charm effect that only works on women. So she was under the effects of the charm, which caused her to lose her sense of rationale. This is why I shot at her and skimmed her cheek with the bullet." Blake explained. Only someone who was very good with firearms would be able to do such a thing on purpose. But he also did it as a warning because the girl did call his wife a bitch. "So do not yell at her for it."
Ricky nodded and let out a sigh of relief. He decided to continue the conversation. "So why did you wish to speak with me?"
"I want to have your entire South City join my Destiny City. Not because I want to conquer your people but because I want to pull you under my protection. For a one hundred percent human city, it is not going to be easy for you to repel any attacks from the other races at this time, and I can guarantee there will soon be a war that will put every race against each other. My city is a multi race city. A place where all races can live normal lives peacefully. As you know, living in the new world is not easy. So I wish to allow you this chance. Do not worry about how you will get there since I can move every person in your city to mine instantly." Blake answered. "To make things more clear, Onz, tell them."
"Yes, my Lord…." Onz stood up and took out a map and walked over, and sat down next to Ricky. He then pointed at the map. "Before my lord defeated me at this spot here a few days ago, my army, which was over two thousand orcs and orc siege weapons at the time, had planned to stop at this city as well. We would have killed your men and enslaved your women. The women who would be able to give birth, no matter the age, would have been brought back to my orc clan or used by my men as breeders. And from what my scouts found out, there are no magical defenses to protect yourselves, which means you would have been wiped out in a matter of minutes…. The only reason you are able to still be here now talking with me is because of my lord."
Onz's words caused Ricky, Frank, and Jerry to feel a bit of cold sweat building up on their backs. Onz continued as he said: "This map here shows the location of your city as well as an elven encampment south of here."
"There is indeed an elven camp south of here, but they are neither friendly nor foe." Ricky let out a long breath of air. "If this was a full blown out war, how many troops can your orc clan mobilize?" Rick asked. He needed a kind of understanding of how many people from one clan they were dealing with.
"Mmm… a few million," Onz answered. "Although someone like my lord and his wives can probably destroy half of them in a single day."
"What!? Just you few!?" Frank cried out in shock. He did not think the people in front of him were that powerful!
"Not just what you see here, but if my wife Clance, who is at our camp, were to join, I could see all of them dying…." Blake nodded. He agreed with Onz's calculation, but if you added in Clance, then most of them would probably die if she attacked. This was not counting the rest of his wives who were not here. He would not have a problem against a bunch of foot soldiers. It would be like sending an army of ants at him.
