Lux thought that after the Orc Chieftain was dead, the Hidden Quest would be finally completed. However, contrary to his expectations, the quest wasn’t over yet.

‘This might be a bit troublesome,’ Lux thought as he looked at the final mission that he needed to clear in order to complete the mission.
He could see the dissatisfaction in the eyes of the Orcs. Even Tanabur looked at Lux and Barca with a dissatisfied look. Only Baronar and Morgazar remained unfazed with the result of the battle.
“Who among you do not approve of the method I used to kill your Orc Chieftain?” Lux asked. “Raise your hands!”
More than a third of the Orcs raised their hands, including Tanabur who made his stance known.
“So, you wish for an honorable battle, is that it?” Lux inquired.
“”Yes!””
Lux knew that there was nothing else he could do but go with the flow. Since it was a duel they wanted, a duel they would get.
“Very well, I will accept your challenge,” Lux said in an arrogant manner. “Since Barca defeated the Orc Warlords in a duel, this meant that all of you approve of his strength, right?”
“Yes,” Baronar replied.
“It was Ishstar who defeated me, but since you are her Master, I approve of you as the victor of our duel,” Morgazar replied.
“I recognize Barca, but I don’t recognize you,” Tanabur replied.
“Okay, since all of you already recognize Barca and had fought with him, it is time for the subordinates to fight,” Lux declared. “Anyone who wishes to challenge me, with the exception of Barca, and the Orc Warlords, feel free to step forward. I will fight you with everything I have, one-on-one!”
Some of the orcs were itching to accept the challenge. In fact, some of them were already about to declare their intent to fight.
“I will fight you!” an Orc Rider shouted and his mount stepped forward before growling at Lux.
“Fine,” Lux replied.
The Half-Elf then summoned all of his minions. Eiko also summoned her skeletons as well.
Since she was Lux’s daughter, and Beast Companion, her summons were also part of Lux’s strength. Even Baronar, who also had spirit summons, had to cover his face out of embarrassment due to the Half-Elf’s shamelessness.
The corner of the lips of the Orcs twitched after seeing Lux’s shameful display of power.
“Bro, what happened to the one-on-one battle you promised?” The Orc Rider felt his courage failed him after seeing the lineup that he was about to fight. “This is not one-on-one.”
“I am a Necromancer. This is how I fight,” Lux scoffed in disdain. “If you have someone to blame, blame yourself for being weak.”
Pazuzu and Ishtar also landed on the ground and stood by his side. The Skeleton Hunter drew her bow, while the Demonic Defender tapped his Tower Shield with his mace, making known his intent to fight.
One Overpowered Baby Slime
One Skeletal Rider
One Skeleton Hunter
One Demonic Defender
Fourteen Skeleton Fighters
Sixteen Skeleton Grand Archers
This was the lineup on Lux’s disposal, which made the Orcs who saw this feel their liver itch.
With just a glance, any Orc, even if they weren’t smart, could understand that this was not a battle that they could win.
‘Fools! Aside from Barca, and the Orc Warlords, none of you are my match!’ Lux laughed in his heart. “So, are you ready to rumble?”
Lux gave the Orc Warrior a devilish smile as he stepped forward.
Eiko, who was on top of Lux’s head, was also pumped up for a battle. As a battle junky, and with great numbers on her side, the baby Slime was fearless, knowing that they were at a great advantage.
If only Iris knew that her baby daughter was becoming as shameless as her Papa, she would definitely take her back to the Barbatos Academy and raise her herself.
“I-I concede,” the Orc Rider had no choice but to concede over the hopeless fight that was waiting for him.
Lux nodded his head. “Anyone else?!”
None of the Orcs dared to step forward because they knew that it was impossible to win against Lux and his minions.
“Fight me!” Tanabur shouted. He was greatly dissatisfied with what was happening so he made his voice known. “If you win, I will convince everyone to recognize Barca as our new Chieftain! What do you say?”
“Okay,” Lux answered in a heartbeat. “You’re very brave, Tanabur. Because of your bravery, I will only designate Diablo and Pazuzu as my representatives. If you beat them then I will no longer interfere with the affairs of the Blackrock Clan. You are free to choose among yourselves who will be the next Orc Chieftain.”
Tanabur, who had already prepared himself to fight Lux and all of his summons in a battle, looked at the Half-Elf suspiciously.
As a Rank 4 Alpha Monster, he knew that all he needed to do was defeat Lux, and all of his summons would be rendered useless. However, instead of fighting him, the Half-Elf designated two representatives to fight in his stead.
“Are you sure about this?” Tanabur asked with suspicion. “If I defeat them, you will no longer meddle in our affairs?”
“Correct,” Lux answered. “This will be a no-holds barred battle. Anything is allowed. You can even fight with your mount. Everyone can use any method in order to win. Do you accept these conditions?”
“I accept!” Tanabur declared. “I, Tanabur, accept this challenge! All of you bear witness to this battle. Any method is allowed. Only the result is important!”
The Orcs raised their weapons and shouted their war cries.
Baronar and Morgazar covered their faces with the palm of their hands. Both of them were few of the smarter ones among the Orcs, and they already understood what the Half-Elf was planning to do.
“This fool was led by the nose,” Baronar muttered in embarrassment.
Morgazar nodded his head in agreement. “Maybe we really do need a bit of humanity to overcome the stupidness of our race.”
Barca also realized what Lux was planning to do and shook his head helplessly. He vowed that after this duel ended, he would ensure that the Orcs learned some strategies from Humans so they would not be hoodwinked by words and other types of provocation.
“Are you ready?” Lux asked.
“I was born ready!” Tanabur replied.
Diablo and Pazuzu had already taken a fighting stance, and Tanabur and his Warg did the same.
“At the count of three!” Lux shouted. “One, Two, Three, Fight!” Nw novel chapters are publshed on ovlꜰre.et
Tanabur’s Warg lunged forward in order to attack the two monsters in front of him. He was quite confident of his strength, and didn’t think much of Lux’s two Summons who were two ranks below him.
The moment Lux gave the signal to fight, Diablo who was mounted on his Nightmare turned around and ran away from Tanabur and his Warg.
Pazuzu activated his Shield Wall and used his Madlad Rush to slam his shield against the Orc Rider’s body, sending him skidding on the ground.
“Petty tricks!” Tanabur shouted as he exerted his Rank 4 Alpha Monster strength to slowly push back the Demonic Protector that was keeping him at bay.
Due to the big, blue, Tower Shield that was blocking his vision, he was unaware of what was happening in front of him.
Suddenly, Tanabur activated his Cavalry Skill, Wild Charge, and pushed Pazuzu back.
The Demonic Defender held on for as long as he could, but his enemy was simply too strong for him even if he had already used his two trump cards. Even so, Pazuzu didn’t back down and continued to hold his ground.
Only when his Shield Wall was about to end did the Demonic Defender fly high up, allowing Tanabur and his Warg to continue charging forward.
However, when the Orc Raider saw what was waiting for him, his face immediately became pale as Diablo’s middle finger pointed in his direction.
Duel [EX]
The Orc Raider, and his Warg looked on in horror as both of them were forced to run in the direction of the QuickSand that had killed their former Orc Chieftain, Orobak.
“This isn’t part of the deal!” Tanabur’s horrified shout spread across the battlefield as his mount neared the deadly pit that would definitely claim their lives.
“This is an anything goes battle,” Lux replied. “Any method is allowed. Only the result is important.”
“Damn you, Half-Elf!”
Those were the last words that Tanabur shouted before he, and his Warg, fell into the deadly QuickSand that sealed their fate.
