Chapter 50: Sired Creatures!?
Byung decided to settle the score with his bully. He searched for him, but he wasn’t hard to find.
Byung found him, but noticed that the anger in his eyes was no longer there when he looked at him.
"Eh? What doing here?" the bully questioned, looking around to see if there was anyone else around them.
However, it was just the two of them. Not even Maui was present, since she was too busy keeping an eye on the carriage.
"Huh? There is something different about him..." Byung muttered under his breath, surprised by the sudden change.
"You told Murkfang, didn’t you?" Byung questioned him, not bothering to hide that he could speak.
The goblin looked surprised by the accusation before looking at the floor in shame, like he was embarrassed by the words that escaped his green lips.
"No..." This was all he said, and for some reason, Byung could tell by the look in his eyes that he meant it.
"What? Then how did he find out?" Byung questioned, but the goblin shrugged. He had no idea why Byung was asking him this question to begin with.
"I not know but keep mouth shut," the bully said, but this made Byung curious about why he would keep his mouth shut.
"I see..." Byung muttered under his breath, then saw a piece of rock on the ground.
"Hey, could you pass me that?" Byung asked, and without hesitation, the goblin handed him the piece of rock.
"What the fuck is going on!?" Byung thought to himself. The way the goblin suddenly became submissive was suspicious and made him raise a brow.
[Ding!]
[Congratulations! Sired Goblin Added!]
[Sired Goblins 1/10!]
Byung saw the all too familiar cyan screen prompt and could understand why something like this could happen.
"How is it possible?" Byung questioned under his breath, and for the first time, the system responded to the question.
[The host can sire Goblins who have come into contact with his blood. Sired Goblins will show a high level of loyalty towards the user, but it varies based on mental fortitude!]
[Subjects must have the same genetic make up as the host shares!]
"This all makes sense," Byung thought to himself. This would also explain why it took Maui multiple times of consuming his fluids to be afflicted, but he noted the system explicitly stated goblins.
This meant it didn’t have the same effect on orcs and goblins alike. It aroused orcs and sired goblins or did the component of his fluids have different effect?
Byung smiled to himself, knowing what he could accomplish with this. This changed everything.
There was one thing on his mind. He had to sire Gribnox or Murkfang. That would make everything a lot easier.
--
The human didn’t have much to talk about with Gribnox as the goblins were loading his cart, but he was shocked by what he was seeing.
"T-These are forges!" the human muttered under his breath, instantly looking around to see what else the goblins had created.
"I was just as shocked when I arrived here," Maui said, trying to strike up a conversation, but the human was too engrossed to even pay her attention.
Maui looked around, hoping Byung would join them soon, because she couldn’t keep this man much longer.
"It is amazing... The goblins have started to trade for things other than women, but to think they are capable of not only understanding the blueprint but crafting an item from it?"
There was no way goblins should be able to show such intelligence to begin with. But little did this human know, everything was done by Byung.
But the narrative he believed was for the best, as it hid Byung’s involvement.
Maui sat on the spare carriage seat, and the human had no idea what she was doing.
"You don’t mind giving me a ride back to my village, do you?" Maui asked. But the way she was seated, the human could clearly see her inner thighs.
He gulped, but he knew this was something that wouldn’t sit well with all parties involved.
"You belong to the goblins, I cannot do that," the human had to decline.
"Wrong. I belong to a goblin," Maui corrected him right away. She wasn’t some community whore and had to make that clear.
"I see..." the human muttered, and Maui could see he was leering at her exposed skin.
"I will make it worth your time~" Maui’s voice sounded seductive, and the human didn’t need any more convincing.
He was ready to risk it all, because this orc looked different from the ones he had spent the night with.
He wondered if he could sneak in a quickie mid-journey to empty his balls before the rest of the crew had their turns with her.
He looked over his shoulder before nodding. He accepted her offer because he was expecting sex in return.
Byung was within sight. He looked at Maui, and she nodded, nonverbally signaling that they were good to go.
She wasn’t a prisoner here after all. She was allowed to go places the goblins weren’t allowed, which was good, because Byung had a change in plans.
Maui was to report back to Kragg, but Byung had told her exactly what she was to say.
He had to remain here. The new knowledge about his fluids made leaving unnecessary.
--
Gribnox was done with the human, but looked irritated that Murkfang wasn’t here. This was something Murkfang should have handled, yet the responsibility was forced upon him.
Gribnox hated it, but it was something he had to do. He noticed Byung was back as well and was glad.
This would ease the pressure, but Naz began to throw up. Gribnox looked over his shoulder and noticed she looked pale.
"Are you okay?" Gribnox asked, but before she could answer, she threw up again.
"It can’t be...!" Naruz thought to herself, because there was no doubt these were symptoms of pregnancy, which could only mean one thing.
A death sentence had been handed out. Naruz sighed the moment she realized this, because it was only a matter of time before her friend died.
"We have been careless..." Naruz muttered under her breath. They hadn’t thought Gribnox was capable of getting them pregnant and had allowed him to slip it in once.
That was all it took to get Naz pregnant. However, Naruz didn’t suffer the same fate.
Before Gribnox could join them, Borkle informed him of someone’s arrival.
It was none other than Byung. Gribnox remained seated and gestured for the orcs to leave the room.
He needed to be alone with Byung, knowing there were some things not fit for their ears. At the end of the day, they were outsiders.
"Hello..." Byung greeted, not sure if he should reveal he could speak or not, since he had no idea how much Murkfang had told his partner.
"Byung, am I glad to see you!" Gribnox was visibly relieved. The way the supervisors had retrieved him, Byung would have thought he was in trouble—but the embrace told him otherwise.
The first thing that came to Byung’s mind was how he could rub some of his fluids on Gribnox. But there was one thing that was more important.
"Where Murkfang?" Byung asked the all-important question. But Gribnox slumped back to the ground in exhaustion.
"I have no idea! He just left without saying a word!" Gribnox wasn’t hiding his frustration, but this was out of character.
Byung could tell by his reaction that this wasn’t something Murkfang did often. That could only mean one thing.
"That fool! It is too soon!" Byung thought to himself.
--
Murkfang had spoken in perfect English, and the humans were shocked by this at first. But soon, curiosity took over.
The humans listened to Murkfang, and the more he spoke, the more of a threat he sounded.
They didn’t like how fluent he had become in their language—not one bit.
"Hey, you’re saying he lied to us?" one of the humans asked Murkfang. Murkfang’s IQ might have been slightly above average for his kind, but compared to the average human, it was low.
He thought he had articulated his lies well, but to the humans, it was like watching a child try to convince his parents he didn’t steal meat from the pot, despite having pieces of it around his lips.
"Y-Yes!" Murkfang had come out here, waiting for them for days because he knew they would arrive any minute. They had taken longer than expected, and the resources he had brought didn’t last.
This was why he looked the way he did. It wasn’t deliberate—Murkfang was barely holding on.
"It sounds like mutiny to me, don’t you think, Roland?" one of the humans said, looking over his shoulder. The other chuckled.
"He did say there would be a few who would attempt this, and we could do with them as we pleased, Cedric," Roland responded. At that moment, Murkfang realized Drekk was smarter than he had let on.
"Damn!" This was the last word that escaped his lips before he lost consciousness.
