Alex's POV,
"Aaaargh!! Really that's everything I know!" Brogg's pitiful wail spread across the forest as he tried to send his words across to me.
we've been busy with this little Brogg for an hour plus now and I find that this guy can sure take a beating, even though we were only hitting him without the intent to kill.
"So you are saying, Your Chief Greyeye went to white mountain to invite Blood horn Chief to his feast, prepared for his son's successful second evolution?, and he intends to use this chance to kill the Blood Horn's Chief by challenging him to battle during the feast?" I asked, going from word to word like I was talking to an idiot... putting aside if his words were reliable, the second part of the story made me speechless.
I couldn't help asking skeptically, "And you are also saying, that he wants me to join hands with him, by using my 'enmity' with the Blood horn Chief?".
"Ptui... yes!" With a spit, Brogg ejected the blood in his mouth while responding.
The moment he said yes, Moz and Urim sneered, "Brother, He might want to use it to push the blame onto you..."
Moz also added a few words with a nod, "true, there's also the chance that it's a diversion and they are working together".
Honestly I had thought about these things the moment I heard Brogg's words earlier but...I don't remember announcing anything or having an open fight with them yet. And then I remember, the Hunter from before, who I humiliated.
I raise an eyebrow while thinking,'he must have told his Chief, quite some interesting stories huh?'.
So Greyeye himself wants to personally invite me for a feast, because of his son broke through to the second circle of evolution...
'They celebrate that?, if so, won't my Black moon clan have a party all the time? another thing learned today'.
"We will know what to do, when we see Greyeye" I tell them before turning towards Moz, "you've done well this time Moz and I'll grant you a fitting reward".
"wait, I can join you, no I don't mind being your slave"Brogg hysterically says while struggling with his bindings, he obviously knows he has
outlived his usefulness and was anxious about his fate.
"Foul thing, why interrupt the Chief, what kind of slave would you..." Urim slaps him with the back of his hand before grabbing his bald head with a bored expression.
it looked like he was holding a coconut from where I was standing...
"I suspect your brother might have the bloodline of an Ogre sometimes"Moz says next to me and I looked at her blankly.
'Did she just tell a joke?, but why does she look so serious?' I wondered, but it honestly feels like a waste to just kill him, after all I need some one on the inside of Greyeye clan more than ever.
And then it hit me, the goddess mentioned tainting ones soul and I know she did it only twice in the Novel but with different effects,
'What kind of effects would I get? and how do I see the soul?'.
I walked towards Brogg and said,"You would do anything right?", at the same time, I controlled the green energy to my eyes and...

"So that's how it is!" I unknowingly exclaimed and Brogg got more agitated saying, "h..how wah...what i..is?".
I got excited, I felt like a child who had found a new toy but I somehow knew, that with my current level, I can only make 3 of such skills.
Even still, I couldn't help thinking of the possibilities!...
Looking at Brogg, I found that he was transparent with a fist sized bluish black ball, just at the center of his c.h.e.s.t. I turned to look at Moz and found hers, only difference was that it had a thick shadowy aura, that obviously had something to do with her element as a shadow Orc.
Urim's soul was... just Blueish but was almost twice as thick.
'What does that mean?',with this thought I turned to Brogg again and I could see that my eyes were glowing green with a tinge of gold, He looked at me with horror and the others felt the same way too, but I wanted to try something else...
"Well...looks like you'll be my very first lab rat"
"Labu?...Aaaargh!!"

Blackmoon Town,
Largash's POV,
I came home with hurried steps after the news I had just heard, it didn't take long for me to find father having a little chat with my sister.
"Father!...Have you heard?" I asked impatiently but father calmly turns to me saying, " Heard what?".
"The Chief, has set a date to take 'Nazu', for some reason I spat the name with more venom than intended, but who cares, I hated her.
"What??!!" Gilgar screams.
"Sit down", Father says, "and no, I have not".
Upset, I couldn't help but complain, "almost every little Gob sings about it with glee".
"Well, I don't see the problem, the Chief can have as many wives...do they call it wife here?, anyways, he can have as many as he wants." Gilgar responded nonchalantly before sitting down again.
'Yes she's right, I can't refute her words, I haven't lost yet' hope appeared in my heart once again, I had been going with the human style of having one wife but even then, some had concubines.
I calmed down, Father was watching my expression but calmed down after a while.
"Pa!..."I said.
"Oh no" he exclaims.
"What?"
"hahahaha" Gilgar breaks into a laughing fit.
"What?!!"I asked again.
"you only call me that when you want something..." Father explained.
"..." I suddenly became speechless after being seen through.
"Okay, let's hear it"
"..."
"if you don't say it now, I might change my mind about listening"
"wait" I could only concede, "Chief Torug asked us to think of a reward, and if he is able to fulfil it, he would"
"Don't tell me..." Gilgar quickly catches on to my thoughts.
"Yes, Father, I was wondering if it would be appropriate?"
"..." Father watched me for a minute before sighing, "you mentioning such a topic in it's self, is inappropriate. it would be better to ask for something else."
"...but"
"No, let me finish... you do your best to enter his attention while you leave the rest to father" He says before getting up to leave.
I could only watch silently, as I began to feel guilty, for what? I don't know...
"Why do you seem to be in a hurry about this matter?"Gilgar suddenly asked a question while taking a bite from the boiled potato on the table.
With a sigh, I silently approached the table and sat down.
"I want to be the one who bears the first child, that way, we'll have a steady foundation in the tribe".
"..."
"Don't look at me like that, you know... despite how nicely we are treated here, don't forget about the others out there, some would try to even kill us... only by being next to someone as strong as Torug, can there be guarantee" I finally spoke about what was really in my mind.
"and Urim"
"What??!!"
"Urim... he's strong too"
"are we still talking about the same strength?" I looked at my sister speechlessly.
"You!" She points at me while her mouth opens and closes like a fish out of water, "...you know that's not what I meant?".
"Really?"I responded sarcastically while she gritted her teeth, her small tusks moved visibly due to the actions of the mouth.
"see how I take care of you!"
