Going through the portal, the camp came into view. Tempest Wolves were in the shadows while hobgoblins were in newly built watchtowers. Many were partnered and were gathering resources like wood and food. The dwarves got their items unpacked as they made their way to a tent reserved for guests and new workers. Milim who was snoring over my shoulder, I make way to where Veldora was supposed to be, instead finding a woman with white hair laying on the cot with Veldora fanning her while looking extremely down. Funny circumstances for Veldora to be in, but I do sense a dragon factor in her. I placed Milim on a comfortable cot, before speaking.

"Oh my Velzard, quite the entrance you have in store," I commented. 

"Brother!" She came up to me and gave me a big embrace.

Veldora who looked back at me, gave me big pleading eyes before I motion for him to leave. Thanking me with prayer signs, he went to greet the newcomers. It seems he has become more a people person, way more extroverted. 
I found it surprising, that Velzard didn't seem as surprised as Veldora was when he out that I was in fact still alive. 

Like reading my mind she said, 

"Oh, Ramiris told me your spirit was still alive, and that you would just recover slowly, gathering magicules from nature." 

Oh hoo, the fairy queen? Happy to see she made her appearance, I wonder how she's doing. 
Tidying up the area, I went out to observe the teaching of Kaijin and the dwarf brothers. Hundreds of hobgoblins gathered around them as they listened intently to their advice. From projects to demonstrations, many were learning quite fast. I gave them a thumbs-up, which riled up the crowd. Leaving them to their facilities, I expected great results coming from especially the famous dwarf brothers. 

<< An army of 20,000 Orcs is about 100 kilometers away, does Master wish to spectate the situation? >>

Ho? Velzard seeing a different reaction from me, immediately asks what the problem was. I didn't bother explaining but just told her to follow me. Opening a portal with {Spatial Movement}, I watch as many Orges in samurai outfits point their katanas' at us alarmed. 

"Who are you?!" A red-haired Orge exclaimed furiously, with his hands shaking it was obvious that he was terribly petrified, Velzard who usually had her aura on full blast during her stay on the Frozen Continent, had aura leakages, which definitely scared any monster who dares to size her up. 

"I was just here to witness the incoming Orc army." Rimuru simply responded. 

"Don't tell me you're affiliated with that Majin, just watching?!" the red-haired Orge shouted in frustration. 

Seems like he's all riled up, I am not someone who wouldn't not help for someone who needs it, but in this case, getting something out of it is the current objective. 

"I am not, I am a spectator who is interested in the current events. However, I can lend you help. I can kill all those orcs coming here." 

<< All Orcs are under the control of {Starved}, they will not be stopped until all are killed or the Host has been killed. >>

Huh... What about the so-called host, are they near? 

<< No, they are nowhere close, this is the doing of the Majin the Orge have mentioned. >> 

Another person who is scheming behind the scenes, very interesting. 

The Orge thinks thoughtfully, before accepting my offer, 

"We'll accept your forces, we can offer you anything within our abilities." 

Alright! That was pretty easy, 

"Become my subordinates." 

"..."

The crowd becomes outraged, the Majin before offered the exact clause but look where that got them now they reasoned. 
A pink-haired Orge who was hiding behind the red-haired Orge gathered the attention of the Orges before saying, 

"I believe we can trust them, they're offering us protection in return. Please think about this rationally." 

Smiling, Rimuru makes a mental note to make the pink-haired Orge his personal secretary of sorts. With all arguments and worries settled, Rimuru went towards the Orcs who were getting closer with every second, Velzard tails behind in unison. 
They appeared above the Orcs who unfortunately had absolutely no idea what horror was about to unfold.

"How about releasing some stress sister?" 

Velzard smirks before going down for the first kill. Releasing her monstrous aura, many within a kilometer suffered from "Magicule Poisoning" which resulted in seizures and heart failure. The Orc generals watched, surprised by how their underlings died within a heartbeat watched as icicles, the size of glaciers plummet on the army crushing thousands instantly. I could definitely just let her do all the work, but what does that look like as an older sibling, I need to show off. 

Using {Soul Consumption}, half of the 20k army fell to the ground, their spirits and soul devoured. They lie lifeless, an Orge who was watching from the sidelines was in awe as an army with such high numbers gets annihilated so easily. 

Before long, the Orc generals knew that winning was no longer an option. Unfathomable even, they started retreating their forces. Feeling satisfied, I collected all remaining souls with {Azatoth, God of the Void} and call over Velzard who hasn't broken a sweat.

Teleporting back to the Orge Village, the Orge from earlier was seen whispering into the red-haired Orge who grimly listens and nods. He looks back towards his peers before kneeling, causing every other Orge to kneel in unison. 

"We gladly offer you our loyalty and lives to our divine rulers." he proclaimed. Don't call me that, my ego is already overinflated.

Today was extremely accomplishing, many skilled and great fighters will be added to our arsenal. 

"Though today we have won, I can't ensure your safety if they would make another return to take your village down. It's not safe, so I recommend you make way towards our home." 

It was hard to fathom such a godly being was casually inviting such lesser beings into their home like noble guests the Orges thought. Velzard just looked around twiddling her thumbs smugly, she definitely had fun and thought her murderous aura was something not to be messed with, a mental note was kept in the back of everybody's mind.
