Holy Domain Frenzy

Chapter 4: Young Arthur

The fire in the orc camp had gone out, and the ground was littered with the bodies of orcs.

The mercenaries were cleaning up the battlefield, even the skin armor on the orcs was taken off, and the corpses were piled up to be burned, and those who were not dead completely were stabbed.

No one felt cruel, as the war between humans and orcs had lasted for nearly ten thousand years, and the hatred that had been passed down through the bloodline made killing seem justified.

"Angus, how are the brothers?"

"Fortunately, we only have one seriously injured and four slightly injured. It's a pity that the female leopard escaped," the hunter who was wrapping gauze on his arm replied without raising his head.

"Forget it, it's lucky that we didn't lose our brother." Thinking of the mother lion's frenzied attack on Cairns before she died, he still felt a little scared.

That female leopard is really strong. If I can catch it and bring it to bed, it will be really exciting! Tony, who had not been seen during the entire battle, suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Tony, you can't even handle the women at the Nightingale Bar, let alone a female orc. Be careful she doesn't snap your little thingy off

Angus's teasing of Tony triggered a burst of rough laughter from the mercenaries cleaning up the battlefield.

Tony didn't care about it at all, with an unmistakable smile on his face, "Boss, we have a big harvest."

Tony waved his hand and several mercenaries brought in a dozen young orcs tied together with ropes. Some of the young orcs bared their teeth and tried to resist, but the mercenaries whipped them down to the ground and made them howl in pain.

Cairns' eyes immediately lit up. "Be careful with your hands. These little guys are worth a lot of money. Killing one of them will cost you at least dozens of gold coins."

Many human nobles like to keep orc guards to show their wealth and power. Many noblewomen even secretly use them as bed toys. The reason is, apart from curiosity, naturally because the orc's s*x organ is more robust than that of human men.

Adult orc warriors are stubborn and irascible, and they will not give in even if they are captured. However, young orcs are easier to train and tame. Therefore, many nobles like to buy young orc slaves to raise them from an early age. Once they appear on the market, they become a hot commodity for countless nobles and wealthy individuals. Their price in the slave market is second only to elven women, and the rarer the race, the higher its value.

"Boss, do you think this is worth a thousand gold coins!" Tony grabbed Leon, who was standing first.

"Oh, what a surprise! The little lion didn't run away, too?" Cairns squatted down and held Leon's chin with a finger.

Leon's eyes were bloodshot, and his gaze was full of hatred, as if these humans were the ones who had killed his mother.

The light of Leon's hands suddenly burst into a pale golden glow, breaking the rope tied to his hands and launching a pair of claws towards Cairns in front of him.

Just as Leon began to move, Cairns's large hand grabbed his neck and held him there, no matter how hard he struggled.

When Leon was almost strangled, Keynes threw him to the ground, but his face showed a hint of solemnity. "Tony, you should have tied up this valuable little guy more tightly."

"Chief, there is another one worth only one gold coin. What do you think we should do?" A mercenary soldier pulled out the skinny Arthur from the team.

Compared to the sought-after young orcs, human teenage slaves who were of no use were naturally not worth much.

Cairns noticed this strange teenager in the Orc camp during the day, and was even more surprised that he was able to defeat the young lion, who was almost at the level of a first-level warrior.

Cairns also lifted Arthur's chin, but with much gentleness.

Arthur raised his head and smiled, showing a mouth full of white teeth. Although his body was covered in mud and his hair was messy, his face was very clean, and his eyes were even purer.

What's your name and how old are you

"Chief, my name is Arthur, I'm 12 years old."

Cairns was stunned. "How do you know I'm the head of the troupe?"

"Isn't that what the mercenary brothers call you?"

Cairns smiled, "You are very clever, why are you in the Orc camp?"

"Our village was attacked by orcs two years ago, and my mother was killed by them. I was taken captive and became a slave in the orc camp."

"You're lying!" Tony suddenly grabbed Arthur's collar and stared at him fiercely. "Orcs don't need human children as slaves, and some Orc nobles prefer to eat human children. Also, although you're a little thin, you don't look like a slave. How do you explain your leather armor?"

"Tony, you'll scare him like this." Adeline couldn't help but stop Tony, the boy's smile seemed to have a magic power that made her believe everything the child said.

Arthur cast a grateful glance at Adeline. "Don't worry, beautiful and respectable lady, he won't scare me. I've seen more ferocious orcs than this."

"Your words are sweet. " Tony knew his strategy had failed and slowly loosened the collar of Arthur.

"I am alive because I am still valuable. The mistress hopes to find a human opponent for her son, so that he can learn more about his enemy," Arthur explained slowly.

"The mistress? The female lion?" Cairns asked.

Arthur lowered his head sadly. "Actually, the mistress is very kind to me. If it weren't for her, I would have already become the food of some orcs

Leon, who was still lying on the ground, suddenly raised his head and looked at Arthur with a surprised gaze.

"Untie his rope. He is no longer a slave here," Cairns shouted.

Thank you! Arthur bowed to Cairns, Adeline, Tony, and even the mercenary who untied him.

Cairns laughed and waved his hand, continuing to call on other mercenaries to quickly clean up the battlefield, leaving nothing of any value behind.

"Are you going to transport these broken leather armor and orc weapons back?" Aydin, who had been following Cairns, couldn't help but groan in a low voice.

Ants are also meat. Throwing them at the weapons bank can always earn some gold coins. You don't know how expensive food and clothes are until you become the head of a household. How many mouths are waiting for me to feed? And we made a mistake this time. There is nothing valuable in this noble camp except for these small orcs. Aidelin's complaint brought Cairns's endless complaints.

"What are you going to do with that child?" Adeline suddenly whispered.

"Take him back to the city first. He's really an interesting little guy." Cairns's gaze swept over Arthur, who was helping to clean up the battlefield. In a very short time, Arthur had already integrated into the mercenary army, helping them collect valuable items from the orcs.

Keynes probably never imagined that his curious decision would change the original trajectory of the history of the continent of Berand……
