The Record of Orc Civilization-Chapter 105 The Fallen Noble

The House of Walton is a noble family appointed by King Andre von Luis III for his services in the first mana species war. Coming from a family of farmers who were appointed as soldiers through military service, Argo Walton, the founder of this family managed to create glorious achievements.

Not because of his expertise in war and also not from the number of elves he killed but from his discovery. He managed to find a synthetic fertilizer that was able to capture the mana in the soil and accelerate the growth of plants on it.

When a mage uses a wood spell faction, plants will grow from the ground even though the land is arid. This is because the mage's spell stimulates the mana inside the plant's body even if they are dead or withered. This is what happens when Deak uses a wood spell on an avalanche-covered land.

However, this plant will soon die when there is no more mana stimulation from the mage. Therefore the wood spell faction cannot be used to increase food supply or grow crops.

With Argo's invention, mages can trap mana on the soil so they can continue to transmit mana to the plants above them. This discovery became a groundbreaker and was very helpful when humans fought against the elves on the front line. They just need to bring synthetic fertilizer soil made by Argo and then they can grow crops anywhere. With the wood spell faction, they no longer need to wait for the harvest season and follow the plant growth cycle as usual.

This discovery also makes the PSA-graduate position stronger in the eyes of the public. After the armistice agreement, the synthetic fertilizer was taken over by the Gurru Committee and Argo was awarded the title of nobility. The Gurru Committee reasoned that they would use Argo's invention for the betterment of the human race.

In addition to the title he also received a mansion in a remote area and a meager amount of gold. However, for a former farmer like Argo, a noble title and a small amount of gold was extraordinary thing. He accepted it without a second thought.

Argo and his remaining family move to their new territory and live in peace. However, the real problem comes from the next generation of the House of Walton, which is the children and grandchildren of Argo.

Stephen Walton, son of Argo Walton has a different view from his father. He felt that their family had been deceived by the Gurru Committee so they were only given empty titles and poor territories.

Since childhood, Stephen has aspired to restore the glory of his family that had been taken. For that Stephen had to become a mage first, however, the Gurru Committee's rules regarding the student standards of the military academy prevented Stephen from entering the academy.

Argo took his prize of title and territory but he wasn't a military academy teacher. Argo is just a poor noble who lives in a remote region far from the center of human civilization. Then their impoverished territory was not enough to finance Stephen's desire to buy [Mana Potions].

However, this did not make Stephen give up, using his intelligence Stephen began to approach the students of the military academy. He sold the beautiful women in his area for free to them.

Stephen didn't care if the woman was married or not, if she had even the slightest bit of charm he would forcibly kidnap her before giving her to the students of the military academy. After that Stephen didn't care what would happen to them.

Summarily, a connection to one of the academy teachers was established. Along with Stephen's success, the number of people suffering in his area has also increased. The academy teacher asked Stephen to send him a supply of young women every year which of course he gladly agreed to.

Who knows how long, the academy teacher finally promised a seat in the military academy for Stephen. However the condition that the seat is not given to Stephen himself but to one of his children. For Stephen, this condition is not a problem he is old enough and no longer has the ability to become a mage.

In addition build connections with the students of the military academy, Stephen has also prepared his family for this bright future. He married dozens of women whose looks, intelligence, and tenacity were above average. With the help of drugs, Stephen managed to get them all pregnant and get a son for each of his wives.

Stephen then educates his sons to become strong fighters, he uses the Gu king training system where only the strongest Gu can come out of the bottle. As a result, the number of surviving boys is decreasing every year. Until there was only one son left, Damon Walton.

Damon Walton has the same ambition as Stephen, he admires his father and wants to continue his struggle. Damon Walton has a younger sister named Claire Walton.

The beauty and grace of Claire Walton's body are well known by her family. She is considered the woman who has the most beautiful body among all Stephen Walton's daughters. This fact makes Damon Walton and Stephen Walton spoil Claire. They always protect Claire and give her anything she wants. However, Claire is not allowed to leave her house and hang out with teenagers her age. Only one maid was allowed to accompany Claire, namely Widya.

Claire is always given good body care and nutritious food to make her body more sexy and beautiful. A farmer's blood rippled through Stephen and Damon's bodies as they pampered Claire. They wanted to plant Claire in the best soil, give her the best fertilizer, water her, and kill the pests around her with the best pesticides.

Claire grew like a rare tree with sweet fruit waiting to be picked. Claire, who is oblivious about this, thinks her father and brother truly love her. However, everyone knows what bad luck will befall Claire in the future but no one dares to tell her this.

Only Widya, Claire's loyal maid, told the truth. She repeatedly told Claire about the true intentions of her father and brother but Claire still couldn't believe it, she wanted to stay forever in her beautiful dollhouse.

Until it was harvest time when Damon met his future military academy teacher. Damon promised to marry Claire to the teacher when he came to the military academy during the new school year. The teacher just smiled and nodded, he looked at Claire from head to toe like he was appraising something. Damon and Stephen are proud of the plants they have grown and cared for so far.

However, the teacher's gaze and smile brought a nightmare to Claire. Claire felt that she was being looked at not as a human, not as a beautiful woman, but like a pile of delicious meat that could be torn and mashed in his mouth. Claire finally understood that all this time she was not a child but a fattened cow to be sold at a high price later.

The dollhouse collapsed and revealed the beasts that had been surrounding it all this time.

....

"...That night Claire came to my room with tears in her eyes, her body shivering in fear like someone who had just come out of a snowstorm. I knew this moment would come, the moment when Claire realized how cruel the world really was. Claire told me, how all this time she was just like a fattened cow before being sold like cheap meat" Widya tells the story in a flat tone. Her eyes which were already filled with tears looked at Anna who was listening seriously. ｆ𝓇𝘦ℯ𝙬𝑒𝐛n𝐨νe𝙡.c𝑜𝗺

"I've been preparing for this for a long time, a lot of people hate Stephen and the Waltons. They were deprived of their wives and daughters. Their vengeance is so great it's just waiting for time to explode. I used their grudges to prepare a plan to run away from that place" Widya smiled.

But her face quickly turned gloomy "However, our escape plan was known by Damon, he reported it to Stephen and together they bring mercenaries to chase us" Widya closed her eyes and tears fell.

"To give us a chance, they sacrificed themselves to block Walton's army. I saw with my own eyes how they were killed; trampled by horses, beheaded, slashed, burned, dragged, and speared. Their cries of pain were heard by us who were already far away from that place. Did you know Anna, one of those killed was my parents" Widya stopped. She wiped her tears and looked into Anna's eyes.

"Anna I don't want to burden you with our troubles. But for me, Claire is not only my master but also someone I've known since childhood. She has a very noble heart and never thought of me as a maid.

I don't want the same cruel fate to happen to her again. I just want to say when Moku returns the girl to the tribe then I will challenge him Palaka!" Widya said the last sentence with confidence, her words were the promise she made.

Anna's eyes trembled at Widya's promise. Her frozen mouth opened but no words came out of it. Anna didn't know what to say.

Widya took a deep breath and got up from her seat. Without saying anything, Widya looked at Anna one last time before turning around and leaving the tent.

Anna could only stare at Widya's back which was getting further away with her mouth still open.

She looked down at Nash who was still fast asleep.

She didn't know what to do.
