BXBX NOVEL Chapter 66 Eyes Of Queen
Hundreds of beasts swarmed and surrounded Moku and his group. They prepared to pounce if ordered.
Their fangs were exposed, hot saliva dripped on the ground and growls rumbled from the depths of their throats.
Sharp claws pierced the ground and traced the rock beneath it. They lowered their bodies in a position ready to pounce.
Moku and co are like entering into an ocean filled with wild beasts. At the end of the ocean the queen sits on her throne perched on the head of a white tiger.
The icy blue hair extended to cover her chest, so straight and soft that it could be seen up close. It calms the hearts of those who look at it closely and freezes the hearts of those who see it with just a glance.
Two small antennae protruding from her forehead formed a majestic crown befitting her broad, white forehead.
Unlike ordinary sylphs who don\'t have eyelids, the queen\'s eyes are covered by lids with long eyelashes that brush across her cheeks. Everyone will wish that the eyelids opened and could see the bright blue eyes like the shallow sea.
There was no fault in her thin white cheeks, there was only majesty and adoration for those who dared to touch her.
The queen\'s thick lips were closed, so gracefully that they all knew that the queen\'s teeth were in order.
Two blue butterfly wings could be seen flapping on her back, each movement seemed to bring a sprinkling of falling stars.
The patternless blue dress gracefully covers the entire body from the neck to the ankles. But the queen sitting with her legs crossed made the beautiful dress part and reveal white and smooth thighs.
Moku always saw sylph as the personification of the word cute.
But their queen is an image of the word graceful and beautiful.
The queen opened her closed lips and said "Welcome Kumoku, I welcome you to our shabby cave. My name is Nerphyl, queen of sylph!"
Her voice was so soft and brought calm like the sound of waves on a beautiful afternoon.
"I\'m sorry for having to do this, but we\'re just weak creatures, we can\'t possibly win if we fight against you warriors!" Nerphyl snapped her fingers.
Four sylphs flew and approached Laya, Swa, Tam, and Ez slowly. They don\'t show a bad attitude and don\'t rush.
Swa and Tam wanted to take out their weapons but were stopped by Laya and Ez. They shook their heads and said "Let them. We must trust Moku!"
Swa and Tam lowered their weapons. The four sylphs unhindered perched on the shoulders of the entire Moku group except for Moku and Nezena.
Moku didn\'t react at all, he knew this was going to happen and had to happen. If the sylphs had no guarantee of their safety then the next conversation between Nerphyl and Moku would be very difficult.
He believes Laya and Ez understand this and will calm down the angry Swa and Tam. Currently the sylphs are still on alert and don\'t trust Moku and his group.
However, it is different with their queen who sits quietly on her throne. Moku knew the most impatient to start this conversation was not Moku but Nerphyl herself.
Because of that, Moku said in a familiar tone, like a friend to another close friend. "Nerphyl, why are you so stiff and holding my comrades hostage.
Ah never mind! You do have to be careful if your body is only the size of a thumb. HAHAHAHA!!.. I also don\'t want to kill Sylph just because I want to sit down."
A buzzing sound reverberated throughout the cave, the sylphs who felt Moku was very disrespectful to their queen became angry. But they didn\'t do anything because Nerphyl just smiled at Moku\'s joke.
"It\'s not us who are small but your bodies that are too big! I even thought that orcs never defecated, so all the shit piled up on your bodies!" Nerphyl replied to Moku\'s joke with the same tone.
Moku and Nerphyl looked at each other, then they both burst out laughing and made the whole cave filled with the sound of their laughter.
Everyone was confused by the familiarity of Moku and Nerphyl, they felt that before these two people had met and became good friends.
"Well.. I want to thank you for allowing us to enter this cave and meet you. Without your permission, Iathra would not have wanted to take us to meet you" Moku smiled and bowed slightly to show his gratitude.
"What do you mean? The Queen never allowed you to come here, it was you who pushed in here at will!" the tiger on which the queen\'s throne was perched snorted.
"..hm?.. Who is this? Why would a prop of the throne dare to speak. Can\'t you see Nerphyl and I are talking? You\'d better know your place!" Moku\'s red eyes shone in the darkness of the cave.
His aura overflowed and pressed against the white tiger\'s body until it trembled violently. His furs stood on end and his breathing became extremely fast and heavy.
Just as the white tiger was about to faint came Nerphyl\'s voice that calm the atmosphere, "KuMoku, forgive Lesnen for being presumptuous. He doesn\'t really understand orc manners."
Moku stops the burst of aura and Lesnen can breathe again. Even so, his trembling legs made Nerphyl\'s throne tremble as well.
"You guys learned human culture so much that you forgot the law of the Bog forest, only the strong can talk to the other strong. I won\'t lower myself to answer a geek who only props of your throne" Moku snorted.
"Well.. Lesnen is actually my right hand man... You made him unable to stay still and made this throne no longer comfortable to sit on." Nerphyl took a deep breath and snapped her fingers.
A white rhino stepped out of line and knelt beside Nerphyl. Above his head there are the same throne as on Lesnen\'s head.
Nerphyl flapped her wings and flew to her new throne. She sat back down casually with her legs crossed.
"But Moku, I have the same question as Lesnen. Why do you think that I who ordered Iathra to bring you here?" Nerphyl asked while holding her chin.
Her ice blue hair swayed to the side revealing a white and smooth neck.
Moku smirked and replied "Nerphyl why do you still think of me as someone who doesn\'t know anything. I already knew from the start that all of my and Iathra\'s conversation was heard by you.
I don\'t know how you do it, but I\'m pretty sure you have the ability to connect your senses to all the existing sylphs and command them remotely."
The sound of stifled breaths rang out from all the sylphs in the cave. They all glared at Iathra with anger.
Iathra who felt the gazes of her brothers and sisters tried to shake her head and explain that she wasn\'t the one who told Moku about Nerphyl\'s power.
"It wasn\'t Iathra who told him. If it was Iathra who leaked it I would have known right away. Don\'t blame your sister.
I think you know because you analyzed and guessed it yourself. Isn\'t that right the wise KuMoku?" Nerphyl looked at Moku with narrowed eyes.
She is also surprised that Moku knows this hidden power of her. This power they call the Eyes of Queen.
This power is only obtained by the original descendants of the queen who have the purest blood. Every descendant of the previous queen who can awaken the Eyes of Queen will become the next queen candidate and will be protected with very strict guard.
Because of this tight guard, only a few people know the whereabouts of the next queen candidate. After the previous queen died then the new queen would come and summon all the sylphs to declare her ascension to the throne.
With this power the queen can collect and find out the whereabouts of all the sylphs scattered in the vast Bog forest.
With this power the queen can share information with other sylphs and command them from hidden places.
Eyes of Queen is also what makes sylph very respect their queen. Because with this power the queen becomes a symbol of Sylph\'s existence in the world itself.
"Well.. that\'s easy to guess. Stories about the sylph queen who is said to be able to control all sylphs and possess gods have often been heard in children\'s fairy tales.
By comparing it from the analysis of Sylph\'s abilities and Iathra\'s movements when allowing us to meet you it would be easy to conclude that it was the queen herself who wanted to meet us" Moku replied casually with his shoulders raised as if this was very obvious.
Actually Moku just guessed, he guessed that when Iathra closed her eyes she was communicating with Nerphyl but he didn\'t know that for sure.
Then he lure the sylphs in gratitude for being allowed to meet their queen. Lesnan who was already alert to Moku\'s presence was trapped and overreacted to make Moku sure of his guess.
"I never thought that there would be an orc as smart as you Moku. Is this also the effect of your evolution?" Nerphyl asked in amazement.
"No, I\'m just born smart. I\'m so smart that the orcs think I\'m crazy hehehe" Moku puffed out his chest.
"Really? Ah.. never mind, if you know it then you know it. The sylphs won\'t be threatened by just an orc knowing their queen\'s power.
I\'m also sure that if you don\'t want to fight right now, otherwise you wouldn\'t have come with another orc that hasn\'t evolved. You will come here alone and finish us all off as quickly as possible.
I\'m sure you thought of this when you got Iathra to acknowledge the true power of sylphs and our plan to become human house pets.
You who have the ambition to gather monsters and fight humans will definitely feel threatened by our existence. So it\'s only right that you will hunt us until there are no sylphs left.
Am I right?" This time it was Nerphyl\'s turn to analyze with a grin on her lips.
Moku\'s joking face turned serious "You\'re right Nerphyl, I really intend to kill you all.
But that\'s because I can\'t stand a coward who is willing to be a human\'s pet roaming the backyard of my future palace.
But I also understand the feeling of you guys who just want to survive. I\'m also sure you also know that the number of humans and elves entering the Bog forest is increasing.
I\'m also sure you know the real reason why they came to this forest. It was this knowledge that scared you and decided to speed up the plan to turn Sylphs into human pets."
"You\'re right KuMoku. I know the reason why the number of humans and elves entering this Bog forest is increasing. I also believe the reason you gathered other races of monsters was to take them all running with you" Nerphyl nodded.
Muko and Nerphyl looked at each other again. They both took a deep breath.
With the current knowledge and information they each had, it was impossible for either of them to use lies in their next conversation.
All talk will be believed if there is real evidence in front of them.
"Alright KuMoku! I don\'t want to waste both of our time. Show me why we should join you and not join the humans.
Even though in the end we will just be their pets, but with good luck maybe we will find a kind and loving master.
That way we will be safer and get a house and free food.
I don\'t see the advantage of following you if all you give is a dream to make us strong. I don\'t want any empty words to come out of your mouth after this, what I want is proof that you can make us stronger!
If all you want to show are promises and dreams then I hope you get out of this cave soon.
I promise in my name, no sylph will divulge the secrets about the monster kingdom you are about to build and the news about your evolution." Nerphyl said firmly and looked at Moku with full certainty of her words.
