Chapter 17: One Million Orcs. The Gods Are Dead.

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Jonah Kingdom was one of Klein’s three great kingdoms. It occupied the most fertile land, the Jonah Plains, the Norton Forest with the most abundant resources, and the Ruddo River with the largest source of flowing water. It was the most powerful kingdom.

But it was also because of this that the Jonah Kingdom was viewed as an enemy by the other two great kingdoms. It was coveted by the orc alliance in the north, and the few factions fought all-year-round.

Fortunately, the gods that the Jonah Kingdom worshiped were stronger than the other factions’ gods.

Under the gods’ protection, the Jonah Kingdom managed to thrive despite all their hardships. 

The one who invited Sullo to board the carriage was the Jonah Kingdom’s only princess, the king’s beloved daughter.

For some reason, the princess, who was known as the kingdom’s Pearl, actually invited a passerby to accompany her.

Sullo didn’t care about this, nor would he rely on his ability as a god to see through people’s minds to probe into the princess’s thoughts.

If he did so, it would go against his original intention of pretending to be a human in the human world, observing all the great rivers and mountains.

At that moment, he didn’t have the intention to harvest their resources just yet.

One human accompanied by a god, they sat in the carriage and embarked on their journey around the Jonah Kingdom, observing the local customs around the way.

They had seen the volcanic eruptions in the southernmost region, and also a thousand miles of ice in the snowy plains of the northern region. They had even sailed out to sea to hunt whales and sharks, tasting many different delicacies that were out of this world.

By the end of the day, the carriage stopped at a village in the countryside.

Riding on a warhorse, wearing heavy armor, and holding a huge spear, they looked like ferocious knights.

The guards were left behind in the dense forest outside the village by the princess so that their presence would not scare the villagers away.

She changed out of her luxurious long dress and put on simple clothes. She and Sullo slowly walked into the village.

It had been a long time since the remote village had received any visitors.

Seeing the two of them arrive, the villagers immediately welcomed them into the village affectionately.

These villagers did not have much good food, but all kinds of delicacies were still prepared.

The noble princess rolled up her sleeves in front of everyone’s stunned eyes. She walked into the kitchen and began to cook delicious food for Sullo.

Not long after, the princess came to Sullo’s side with a tray and had dinner with him.

Such a scene had happened countless times during their journey together.

The surrounding villagers were envious and could not help but tease him.

“Young man, your girlfriend is really virtuous. She can actually cook such delicious food.” 

“Brother, your girlfriend is so beautiful and so capable. How did you find her?”

“Little girl, how long have you been together? Are you guys married and have children?”

A series of questions made the princess extremely embarrassed. Her pretty face was burning and she could only lower her head and pretend not to hear.

However, her small eyes peeked at Sullo from time to time, wanting to see his reaction.

However, Sullo expressed nothing on his face. He only calmly tasted the delicious food in front of him.

He turned a blind eye to the surrounding crowd and a deaf ear to everyone’s questions. It seemed he had not noticed the princess’ inner turmoil at all.

For a god, emotional entanglements in the mortal world had nothing to do with him.

As for the princess’ intentions, how could he not know?

However, wasn’t it natural for a god to enjoy a mortal’s service?

For a mortal to fall in love with a god, did a god have to react?

At this moment, the princess was extremely disappointed and could only eat the food in front of her with a dejected expression.

Unfortunately, the delicacies that she had meticulously prepared became as tasteless as wax, and she ate without the slightest bit of enjoyment.

Although she was already used to such disappointment, her heart would ache every time to the point that it was difficult for her to breathe.

Right at this moment, the sound of heavy footsteps could be heard.

When the onlookers turned around to take a look, they immediately cried out in surprise.

It was actually a fully-armored warrior who stood at a height of more than two meters with a two-handed greatsword at his waist.

These ordinary villagers had never seen such a terrifying existence before. They immediately turned into cowards and scattered back to their homes.

Some brave villagers leaned against the window and saw the majestic warrior come in front of the princess.

He knelt down like a toppling jade pillar. Under the princess’ cold and solemn gaze, he apologized.

“Your Highness, please forgive me. I didn’t mean to disturb your and Mr. Su’s meal.”

“However, the capital sent a message. The Northern Orc Alliance has invaded and a million troops are coming straight for the kingdom. The king has ordered us to immediately escort her Highness back to the king’s city to prevent any mishaps.”

Clink!

When the princess heard this, the cutlery in her hand slipped and fell to the ground with a sharp, metallic clink.

For a moment, she looked at Sullo in a daze, not knowing what to do.

Sullo did not say anything. He continued to put the last piece of steak into his mouth in an orderly manner. He chewed slowly, feeling the collision of flavors between the food and his taste buds.

After he swallowed the bite of steak down, he took the soup from the table and began to taste it leisurely with a silver spoon.

He only raised his head slowly once he had finished the rest of the soup. He wiped the food residue at the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief and said indifferently, “If that’s the case, then let’s go back!”

Sullo made the final decision. The convoy set off again and sped toward Jonah Kingdom’s capital.

The Northern Orc Alliance was officially called the Chieftain’s United Army and comprised an army of one million.

The main forces were werewolf infantrymen and the musk deer archers, occupying more than half the army’s forces.

There were also the powerful bear soldiers, flying harpies, and foxes and swans who were skilled in magic.

Their combat strength was strong and their abilities were all-rounded. Their numbers were huge and could be said to be the largest in history.

Under the royal chieftain’s command, these orc soldiers swarmed toward the Jonah Kingdom like a tidal wave.

At this time, the Jonah Kingdom immediately took out their ancestral skill and prayed to their god for protection.

In the past when they had done this, their powerful God would send down his divine power to help the Jonah Kingdom defeat the United Army’s attack.

However, this time, their God did not respond to the Jonah Kingdom’s prayer.

It was as if their precious sacrifices were unable to move the god.

If not for the fact that the faith channel was still there, they would have thought their God had already fallen.

However, no one knew that it was not because their god was unwilling to protect them.

It was because the entire planet was blocked by Sullo and the others. The believers’ prayers could not reach their God at all.

If the gods didn’t know the situation, then how could they send reinforcements in the first place?

The Jonah Kingdom’s army, which had lost the gods’ protection, was powerless under the Orc Alliance’s attack.

For a moment, the Jonah Kingdom’s faith in the gods began to waver.

Later, in the hearts of the Jonah Kingdom’s people, an extremely pessimistic thought began to appear.

“The gods are dead!”
