I'm not that kind of orc

"I heard from Sir Tolivia that when she was about to carry out my edict and bring my daughter back, you stopped her."

"There is such a thing." I simply admitted.

Princess Alisa hastily stepped forward to explain: "Mother, I was the one who--"

The queen didn't pay attention to her justification, and continued to question me on her own: "You said you promised my daughter to stop this conflict?"

"Yes."

The queen was silent for a long time before slowly saying: "I have heard her mention you many times, and she has always spoken for you. You have always..." Her voice sank, "It's all such sweet words Are you bewitching her?"

"Queen, it's not like this! Classmate Bullock really wants to help me." Princess Alisa looked anxious.

However, the queen shook her head slightly at her: "My child, you are very kind and have a heart that understands others. This is your strength, but this is also your weakness. You always trust others too easily. "

Listening to the queen's words, I couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.

"Your Majesty doesn't trust me?" I interjected.

"So far, what I know about you is just rumors. I don't know you well, so unfortunately, I can't have much trust in you." The Queen's answer was very direct.

But I don't dislike it, I like to speak openly and honestly.

"There is nothing wrong with your judgment, but I want to remind you that your daughter, Her Highness Alisa, has seen me with her own eyes, known me, and experienced many things with me. She probably knows me better than you. What kind of a person."

"Experienced... a lot of things?" Her Majesty's eyes flickered, and her originally calm tone changed inexplicably, "What happened?"

"Eh?" For some reason, even Princess Alyssa showed a look of surprise.

I caught a glimpse of Roland raising the corners of his mouth uncontrollably, then quickly put on a straight face, covered his mouth with his fists and coughed twice, as if he was trying to hide his almost laughing appearance.

what happened?

Although I was a little puzzled by their subtle reactions, I answered the queen's question: "She has helped me in many things. She visited me when I was injured in battle, and helped me when I was misunderstood. I speak and she has even fought alongside me herself. You don't have to trust me, but I think you trust your daughter somewhat, and she's a wonderful person in my opinion. I granted her request because she was I am grateful."

"How big is that kindness?" The queen stared at me closely.

"Yes! In fact, in general, she did one thing, that is, she chose to put aside her prejudices and believe in me. This is very simple to say, but it means a lot to me. You must know that I would have been willing to stay as a prisoner of war. In this fucking country... Oh, please forgive me for using such a vulgar wording, but please understand, this is what I think." Seeing the queen's eyes look different, I raised my hand to explain, repeated it and continued Come down, "I will stay in this fucking country willingly, in order to understand the country's misunderstanding of my orcs, so that you will no longer send troops to harass my tribe. However, what I encountered in this country was all kinds of unreasonable things. The distorted misunderstanding, I believe you should be very clear about the impression that the elves have on the orcs. They have done nothing, but they are inexplicably labeled with strange stigma, and they can never be explained, and they often get involved in some strange things. Go to the trouble, can you understand how I feel?"

I spread my hands and asked, and saw that the Elf Queen hesitated for a moment as if she was about to speak, and raised her hand to stop her: "Needless to say, Your Majesty, I don't think you can understand how fucked up this feeling is, I think there is nothing in this world except I myself will not have another person who can truly empathize with me. I have cursed more than once that this stupid country will just blow up on the spot one day. It was in that situation that Her Royal Highness Alisa gave me Trust and help, she made me see that everything I do is hopeful, and she made me make up my mind to do what I should do in this situation. This is her achievement. So dare to ask now What were you doing at that time, you refused to talk to us as always, how much effort did I spend trying to talk to you who is so high and high?" I smiled sarcastically, "With all due respect, Your Majesty, in my opinion What she did is far more correct than you, and you have no reason to deny her."

The elf queen fell silent for a while after hearing my words.

Princess Alisa finally found a chance to persuade her mother.

"Mother, you once taught not to judge others based on appearance and rumors. Classmate Bullock has done a lot for this country. He has risked his life to save the citizens of this country, and even relieved the huge threat to the security of this country. Crisis... I have seen all these with my own eyes." She put her hands on her chest as she said, "My queen, I am willing to believe him!"

It's time for a wave of anti-killing (6)

The queen stared at Princess Alisa for a long time, her eyes were like two icy lakes, making it impossible to see clearly the thoughts hidden in the depths.

"Your Majesty, I think you might as well listen to our opinions before making a judgment." Roland said, "After all, going to war in an all-out way can be regarded as our worst choice. Our country is in a critical period when it is in urgent need of population development. , there is no victory for us to participate in a war of this scale, no matter what the outcome is, the country will be hit hard. And compared to the large rewards we give for human support, our proposal will consume There are very few resources." She lowered her head as she said, "Would you like to hear our voice?"

The queen pondered for a moment, then looked at the pleading Princess Alisa, and nodded to Roland: "Then tell me."

"I'm deeply honored." Roland raised his head with a smile, and began to explain our plan to the Queen, including Helgia...to be precise, Crown Prince Alsena will conduct transactions with the orc tribe in the form of a mercenary group. , to provide temporary resettlement land for the tribe's emigrated population, and then Saidian agreed to make appropriate compensation to the Bloodaxe clan, and provide part of the help for the restoration of the orc land from a humanitarian point of view, so as to wash away the violations of all parties. Regarding the suspicion of the orc tribe's land, we will contact the tribe that is most likely to agree after we get the promise from both sides, so as to divide the opinions within each tribe.

"Hergia's Crown Prince, would you be willing to take such a big risk to help us?" This was the Queen's first question after hearing this.

"Yes, Her Highness Arsena has already agreed." Roland said with certainty, "In fact, she is in contact with King Filiant right now. To be precise, Her Highness Arsena is mainly here to assist him." Roland He glanced at me with a smile, "Your Majesty, you also know that this orc saved her mistakes in the past."

"The orcs will really agree to these proposals?" The queen looked at us hesitantly, looking a little hesitant.Her biggest suspicion was obviously still on the orcs. Just when the balance in her heart began to tilt to the side of trying to believe in the orcs, the coalition forces of the orc tribes turned up and threatened her with a declaration of war.The conditions proposed by the tribal coalition to take the princess as a hostage thoroughly angered her, so much so that she would agree to Tolivia's proposal and pour all the power of the whole country into war against the orcs.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured on this point. We are also a reasonable race. If you really taught Her Highness Alisa not to judge others based on rumors, you should try to put aside your prejudices and think about the problem, and fight with Sai Di'an." There is no benefit to the various tribes, they have no choice but to make this kind of trick." I folded my hands and pulled the corners of my mouth, "If more choices are given, people with brains will naturally make more choices. Judging wisely, who would want to pick up shit when there is food in front of them?"

The queen's brows twitched visibly, obviously she didn't like this somewhat vulgar metaphor very much.

And she should be able to hear what I said was aimed at her.

Roland started coughing again.

"Queen!" Princess Alisa hurried forward to ease the atmosphere, "Please, please think about it. I don't want to see so many people sacrifice in vain."

The queen stared at her for a long time, and finally let out a long sigh.

"This plan basically pins our hopes on this orc." She looked at me and said, "Is he really worthy of your trust?"

"You don't need to trust me, and I don't care for your trust, but at least, you might as well trust your daughter's judgment." I responded quietly.

The queen looked at Princess Alisa again, was silent for a while, and finally replied: "Okay, I will give you a chance."

"Thank you very much for your understanding, Your Majesty, we will do our best." Roland bowed quickly as if he was afraid that she would change his words.

"The queen mother..." The princess who was still nervous was relieved.

"But remember, I will not withdraw my support for Sir Tolivia's proposal. If your proposal cannot save the situation in the end, I will still make the decision to protect this country." The queen said majesticly, and then Turn your gaze to me, "Orc, if all you said can really solve the crisis in this country, I will give you a reward."

"No, I don't need any rewards, Your Majesty. I said that I did this to help your daughter, and it was also for my own sake. To be honest, your rewards are of little value to me." I said to The Queen waved her hand.

"I... don't like you very much." The queen frowned slightly, "You remind me of that female orc who threatened us with a declaration of war."

"Oh, that's my sister, maybe we do have some similarities." I smiled indifferently.

The elf queen shook her head, closed her eyes, and said slowly, "Then, that's it."

"Your Majesty, please rest assured and leave it to us." Roland saluted.

"Alyssa, my daughter." She opened her eyes again and cast a soft gaze on Princess Alyssa.

"Mother." Princess Alisa looked back at her.

"Promise me, don't do things that worry me too much... In any case, you must come back safely."

"I understand." Princess Alisa nodded.

The meeting ended here, and the image projecting the hall and the figure of the elf queen gradually blurred and faded, and finally disappeared before our eyes, and we stood in the room that served as the liaison room again.

"It's really strange that the Queen would deliberately say that she doesn't like someone very much." Roland smiled, "Brock, it seems that you have made the Queen have a deep impression on you."

"It's not a good impression." I scratched my head.

"Brock...do you hate my queen mother?" Princess Alisa looked at me cautiously, then lowered her eyes again, "I hoped that you could get along well..."

"At least we all said what we wanted to say, that's enough." I waved my hands indifferently.

"Okay, the important thing is that the queen agreed to our request. As for Her Highness Arsena, I don't think the problem should be too big." Roland smiled softly, "The next step is when we are serious, we have to Get a specific agreement as soon as possible, and then get in touch with the orc tribe. The negotiation the day after tomorrow is the time for us to decide the outcome."

After this meeting, our plans moved forward in an orderly manner.

Then, on the night of the second day, we were finally able to send them a request to continue the negotiation before the tribal coalition forces formally sent the letter of challenge to Saidian.

It is a part of the orc tradition to refuse to accept it, don't play if you are unhappy (1)

On the sixth day when I came to this garrison area, the last negotiation between Saidian and the six major tribes finally officially started.

We sat in the negotiation hall and waited for it. The time for the negotiation to start gradually approached. Then, I heard heavy footsteps coming from the depths of the opposite corridor.This time the formation of the orc representatives entering the arena is completely different from the previous two times. After the elf guards leading the way stepped into the venue to report, the orc representatives who walked in were not surrounded by the elf guards, but surrounded by the accompanying orc warriors. Yes, the accompanying soldiers lined up along the wall soon after entering the venue, their bodies tensed and their expressions resolute, at first glance they looked like reliefs half-embedded on the wall.

The lineup of orc representatives was exactly the same as last time, but this time Relogard was at the forefront.As soon as he stepped into the venue, he frowned in this direction: "What kind of wind is blowing... What kind of formation are you guys doing?"

His doubts were not unreasonable, because this time it was not just the previous elf representatives who appeared opposite the orc representatives, and this time it was not Princess Alyssa sitting in the middle, but me.

Arsena did not sit in the gallery at the end of the long table, but sat on my left, and Princess Alyssa sat on my right in a reserved posture.Further out from these two sides are the representatives of the four elves.

Tolivia, who presided over the elf side in the last negotiation, is now sitting on the side seat with her hands folded and her face sullen, looking very displeased.In stark contrast, Roland, who was sitting symmetrically with her on the other side, had a meaningful smile on his face.

This time, we are fully prepared.

I responded to Raylogard's question: "We should have been informed of this, and we are ready for final negotiations." I paused and added, "Real negotiations."

Originally, Lerogard probably didn't plan to attend the last scheduled negotiation at all, but planned to send envoys here to deliver the letter of war.Roland used her familiar to pass the document to the camp of the tribal coalition army in advance, and proposed to let the chiefs of each clan attend the final negotiation in the name of Queen Saidian.

"There is still room for negotiation?" Relogard snorted at my words, "I think you should explain why you are sitting on that side, you finally brazenly acted as these long ears..." She glanced over The elves looked at Arthena again, "Do you still have dogs raised by humans? What a shame to the orcs! It seems that they treated you well, and gave you the best seat for a traitor."

I didn't get angry because of his fierce words: "If you want to accuse me, how about sitting down and listening to me?"

After I finished speaking, I motioned to the side beside him—the chiefs of the Baishan clan and the Leiyu clan had already taken their seats silently, followed by the chiefs of the Langshou clan and the Luefeng clan.

Igna also sat down and glanced at him: "Just listen to it."

Only then did Leilogard slowly sit down in his seat, and his eyes were fixed on me from the beginning to the end.

This time, the elf guards didn't bring up the brass bells.

I glanced at the orc representative on the opposite side, and said the opening remark: "It's a great honor to meet my compatriots. My name is Brock Bloodaxe, son of Mutake. I am here, negotiating with the chiefs on behalf of the Bloodaxe clan."

"Representing the Bloodaxe clan?" Relogard responded immediately.

Also frowning with him was the chief of the Wolf Head Clan: "Don't go too far, kid."

"Transcendence? I think I, as the Bloodaxe clan..." I raised my finger to Igna beside Leilogard without changing my expression, "It should be more suitable than her who has become a member of the Shouya clan. Attend as a representative of the Bloodaxe clan?"

Igna folded her hands and looked back at me expressionlessly, as if what I said had nothing to do with her.

"You are not qualified to survive as a captive once, traitor!" Leilogard thumped the table.

I didn't answer him directly, but took out a roll of animal skin and spread it out.

Lerogard carefully looked at the writing on the animal skin, and his face changed slightly.

"The envoy's blood contract..." the chief of the Wolf Head Clan murmured, "What's going on?"

"This is indeed Master Walo's handwriting." The shaman chief of the Lei Yu clan said.

"You..." Lerogard looked away from the animal skin and looked up at me, his eyes full of surprise.

What I took out was actually an authorization document written with specially prepared animal blood that only the envoys directly sent by the chiefs would hold under normal circumstances. The envoy holding the blood contract written by the chief himself means that he is authorized Speak for your chief.

After agreeing on everything, the chief wrote down this authorization, and let Roland's familiar come into my hands.

I scanned each representative again: "I repeat, I am here as a representative of the Bloodaxe clan to negotiate with you. This time it is not a negotiation between orcs and elves, but a negotiation between our internal clans. I represent the Bloodaxe clan." The Ax clan is negotiating with you, and I ask you to carefully consider the declaration of war... No, let me put it bluntly, I think it's time to stop this farce."

Under the surprised gazes of several chiefs, I raised my hands high: "Since it's a negotiation between us, let's do it according to our style. No need to hide it, let's talk about it openly. I already know that you will The real reason for sending troops here is that you did not come here to stand up for the Bloodaxe clan, but because you suspect that the elves of Saidian are acting secretly, using secret techniques to erode the land of each tribe, and drive crazy giant beasts to attack each tribe , is that right?"

"Where did you hear this kind of news?" Lerogarde's expression was not very good.

"It doesn't matter where I heard it, what matters is that it is true. Now here I am going to tell you one thing, that Saidian was not involved in this matter. What you found among those prisoners The elves are actually sinners who were exiled to the north by this country in the past, and they were used by others to instigate us to send troops to the south." I raised my voice here, "If we jump into this trap and really declare war on this country , this war will completely turn into a shameless aggression, and we will become the same as when we were enslaved by the demon king in the past!"

The chief of the Luefeng clan and the chief of the Wolf Head clan looked at each other and exchanged surprised glances.

"It's nonsense! Who can prove it's true?" Relogard slapped the table angrily and stared over.

"Through the previous negotiations, you should have been aware of it, right?" I replied calmly, "If Saidian really planned to infringe the various clans, he should have expected that we would make trouble for them. Ready to deal with us, you won't waste your time participating in any negotiations, will you?"

"But what should they say about the fact that they attacked the Bloodaxe clan before?" Relogard was still aggressive, "And do you think how stupid we are, believing that they are innocent with just a few words?"
