A storm that was neither big nor small, but set off a chaotic storm in the whole Andhrari, was so hastily revealed.

As André said, this was an unavoidable mistake between different cultural traditions, but fortunately it did not irreparably affect Andhrari's stability and interracial relations.

Alan Buck was not convicted, but his moral standards were undoubtedly intolerable to the elves. So much so that in the days that followed, once Brand brought the young guards with them, Andhrari's shops would even refuse to serve them. Although this method is more of an expression of the attitude of the citizens of Andhrari, it does not prevent the human guards from privately providing food to Allen. However, due to the unfriendly attitude of the elves, Brand hurried out of this strange town of mixed races after getting the goods he wanted. And he said that he will visit this unique place again in two years at the earliest.

Renesa's life has also been affected to a certain extent, and people are not as harsh on her as André imagined. This may be because people have intellectually accepted the emotional concept of the demons, but the number of people who are willing to greet her with a smile will inevitably be much less after that. When she didn't respond to the young elf's affection with a sincere commitment, it was destined to be a consequence she had to endure.

The young druid, who was the "sole victim" of the whole affair, was also taught by his grandfather how undesirable it was to be emotionally blind. However, Andre felt that this kind of thing could only be said to be that young people did not withstand the temptation, not to mention that the son of the abyss felt that men could not suffer at such times, just like the ambiguous relationship between him and Livia. The only effect was that Catharon's grandson might suffer some setbacks for this disgraceful event for the elves in the future, but he was still young, at least two hundred years of youth enough for him to squander.

André has a well-known reason for valuing Brand, but it will take a long time to brew if the young human merchant wants to turn the delicate goods he brings back into a yearning for the Whispering Forest from the upper echelons of the human city-state. At least until next year, there will be no more humans willing to risk the unpredictable to find opportunities in the Whispering Forest than in previous years, and those merchants who dare to come from afar will be the seeds that the children of the abyss have sown into human society—the seeds of trade and wealth.

However, Brand's impact was earlier than André had anticipated, and it was an orc woman who clearly had human blood that had come to Andrarui because of the human merchant's description. Her perfect, sturdy figure made her taller than the Children of the Abyss, and the brown fur around the edges of the leather armor and the mutilated hatchet made the young orc look intimidating. The only thing that made André feel a little out of place was her round ears tucked away at the ends of her unkempt blonde hair, which seemed to be shy, showing only a slight arc of cuteness that somewhat weakened her intimidating power as a warrior. But it also provides her feminine identity with a certain unique charm that cannot be expressed.

"I am Liana Reinhardt, the daughter of a messenger from the Goldmane tribe and known as the powerful Furious Claw Chieftain. They are the best warriors of the younger generation of the Goldmane Tribe, and we heard that you have a job for the Outlanders here?"

"Yes, yes, but these tasks require you to be willing to obey Andhrari's laws. And I can't arrange for everyone to join the ranks of the warriors just because you are good enough, it's more of a boring job that requires skill and physical strength, and I'm afraid that the warriors of the Goldmane Tribe can't stand the oppressive and boring labor. ”

"It's okay, as long as you prepare the meal for us. The warriors of the Goldmane Tribe can bear any kind of suffering!"

...... Feelings: Didn't you come to us to pursue a better life?

The Children of the Abyss were a little puzzled by what these uprooted young orcs were thinking.

For this lioness with fine fluff on her face but her face is more similar to that of a human and her name, Andre hides some unpleasant words in his heart, but it is too rusty to say directly.

The lionmen of the orc tribe of the wasteland are always rumored to be more legendary than the other orc races. But as long as they are willing to abide by Andhrari's rules, the children of the abyss are actually very welcome.

......

Just by registering the names and ages of each of them, Andrei could see the clues from the visitors. Almost all of them were young lions under the age of twenty, and they belonged to the kind of people who represented the future of the tribe, but could no longer travel for outstanding combat power in the short term.

In addition, the current wasteland is in a period of green and yellow...... These young and fearless orcs may really just be here to eat!

"I understand how you want to serve here as a warrior, but our regular establishment is all about making an oath in front of the goddess and signing a contract of service for more than five years. And in five years' time, in Andhrari we must respond to our call-up whenever needed...... This means that you will hardly have the opportunity to fight for the glory of your tribe in the future. These strict requirements were not improvised by André to deal with the pestering lionesses, in fact he had the idea of building a formed army for a long time, and it was only some time ago that he had the opportunity to present the possible impact of this issue to the watchmen and the speakers of the elven court.

"As long as you don't order us to attack the Goldmane Tribe and Goldmane's allies, we'll do it!" Liana's inner struggle was all shown in her gritted teeth.

"Although our aim is not to take the initiative to create a war, once the fight really starts, it is uncertain to attack the Goldmane Tribe. ”

“...... As long as you swear in front of the goddess, you will never take the initiative to harm the great gold-maned tribe!

The words have already been said to this point, and if he doesn't agree, Andre is really a little worried that the lioness will pounce on him and bite him.

The society of the lion people has a very peculiar composition, and the status of women among them is somewhat similar to that of elves, but not the same. The most important hunting activities in the tribe are all carried out by women, and men rarely participate in hunting unless there is a shortage of manpower. But once there is a fight with other tribes or other races of the same race, those men who usually have no pressure to live and accept female support will fight feverishly on the front line of the enemy!

In short, women are in charge of matters within the clan, and men are only in charge of fighting.

It was obvious that Liana was the leader of the young lionmen, but André didn't expect her to agree to such harsh conditions—such a harsh clause would be the equivalent of a deed of sale!

If the recruits are dwarves or elves, there is not much difference between fighting for Andhrari and fighting for their own clan and kingdom for those who come from the Graystone Clan and the Whispering Forest. Although Andhri is still the nominal supreme leader of Andhrari, as long as he makes a decision that is clearly unfavorable to the dwarves and elves, the respected elders will be able to use their influence to appeal to the dwarves and elves who make up the majority of Andhrari's population, whether it is to refuse the orders of the children of the abyss or to overthrow his rule.

It is precisely because of Andre's unreserved opening of his territory to dwarves and elves that the old fellows who have become elves are sure that they can contain the children of the abyss to some extent in this way. The clan elders and the elven royal court will listen to the demands of the young demon leader more at ease. Anyway, if André does anything irrational or evil, can they use Andhrari's huge base of hired workers to get him out of class!

In this situation, Andhrari and the Greystone Clan and the Elven Kingdom have become worthy of being called You Have Me and I Have You. André seeks to influence two powerful and traditional local powers through economy, trade, and law, while elves and dwarves feed the town by constantly sending artisans to Andhrari.

However, this is not the case between the lion tribe and Andhrari, and once they make a vow before the goddess, it means that they have abandoned their past identity. Unlike the demons, who only revere the will of the abyss, almost all the peoples in the lush land of Galandia believe in the goddess of the earth who protects them and provides them with a place to live.

Unlike those worlds where there are so many religions and gods that religious wars often take place over some inexplicable thing, Orcs and humans also worship Garlandia. In particular, the high-ranking shamans, witch doctors, and priests among the orcs, many of their magical powers are derived from the generosity of the goddess like the magic of the druids.

Shamans, goddess sacrifices, and druids are just different perspectives on the teachings of the goddesses, and not only do they not conflict with each other, but in many cases they even complement each other. All of them are practitioners of the goddess in the mortal world, guiding the confused beings.

The young lions' decision to swear allegiance to Andhrari in the presence of the goddess means that they really no longer expect to give back to their tribe as lion warriors.

Isn't the situation in the wasteland already so bad?

For the humans on the west side of the wasteland who are very resistant to the orcs, this is definitely not good news. But André felt that this could also be an opportunity for Andhrari to grow quickly.

――With the powerful elven kingdom as a backer, the children of the abyss are not afraid of the idea of any orcs who are not long-eyed to fight the small town of the river valley! If they want to have the strength to confront the elven kingdom head-on, unless all the orcs are tightly united, they can still try to develop for a few hundred years!
