The paddock.
That is something we orcs came up with to ensure our continued sustenance.
We demarcate an area and build a fence around it, then we fill that area with relatively weak herbivores, giving them free rein to graze and multiply. Once they multiply, we eat the excess, giving ourselves a delicious treat while ensuring that we never ran out of food. But that's not all. From time to time, other beasts would attack them, which we would of course have to deal with. In this way, we are able to eat not just the delicious meat of our captured beasts but also the meat of the foolish predators.
Doralia herself is quite fond of the beasts as they would eventually become nutrients for her.
Lately, I've been crushing the bones of the beasts before burying them by her roots. She was happiest that way, as it made it easier to absorb the nutrients.
The paddock is something I thought up with Doralia, then created in northern area of the village, away from the goblins' eyes and ears.
And yet! What is with this timing!?
I tried pulling the wool over Mr. Gi Jii, but he seemed deep in thought.
Maybe he'll keep quiet if I coax him. I have to do something or else my dream will remain but a dream! Oh, how cruel the goddess of wisdom is!
"Bui, what are we going to do!?" Gui asked.
"Gather the soldiers!" I said. "Who attacked!?"
"Wanderers! Those wanderers coming from the north!" Gui said.
Before I knew it, I had my head in my hands. As far as I knew, orcs rarely gathered in large numbers. There also shouldn't have been any big groups nearby.
There's a lot of reasons why we orcs don't gather in large numbers, like food problems or territorial problems, but regardless what the reasons were, it was indeed a rarity for orcs to gather together in a large group. The one exception being when a strong leader like Master Gol Gol was present.
Lately, a change has been happening to the northern area. For some reason I can't comprehend – maybe they were attacked by beasts and chased out of their land or something – but regardless, some orc groups have been appearing at our territory for awhile now.
"Their numbers?" I asked.
"15 orcs!" Gui said.
"Beat them! But don't kill them!" I said.
"Of course!" Gui said.
Then I turned to Mr. Gi Jii. "Mr. Gi Jii, you'll have to excuse me. In the meanwhile, please have a good rest."
"No, let me help," he said.
Oh no no no no no! You can't! You'll find out about the paddock! The northern orcs don't know anything about the fearsomeness of the goblins here, so they won't surrender easily!
"I-It's fine! Look, it's just 15 orcs! Even we can handle that much!"
"You took care of me before. Let me use this opportunity to show you my gratitude," Gi Jii said.
