The Four Orc Brothers

Meanwhile…

In Northern Vino, the settlement where the Orc King lives…

The fourth orc brother (Rout) and the second orc brother (Baramun) were brought to the castle.

"Brother, I did everything as you said but look what has happened…"

"If they send me to prison then I will reveal that you were the one who suggested it.", The fourth brother said to the third brother under his breath.

Yes, the third brother was the one who instigated all this.

Rout – the fourth brother, and Baramun – the second brother –fought due to the third brother's suggestions and schemes.

"Oh my dear brother, you will go to prison but that's only for two days, and within those two days I will frame the second brother and then give his land to you.", the third brother said in a tempting tone.

"If you say so."

"Well now go on without me. I will come in two minutes.", the third brother said.

"Ok brother." Rout nodded his head and then entered the settlement. On the other hand, the third brother spotted Baramun and walked toward him.

He approached Baramun and said, "Greetings, big brother."

"Yes…", Baramun gave a short reply.

"Today I will make sure that the fourth goes to prison.", the third orc brother said, playing a double game.

He sided with both of them and instigated them. In fact, he was saying those exact words that they wanted to hear.

"Lok…"

"I want him to stay in the prison for eternity!"

"That will happen.", the third orc brother, Lok nodded his head.

Then soon both of them entered the Orc King's settlement too.

The King was sitting on a gigantic throne. He was enourmous, and quite strong.

Just his breaths were enough to send chills down everyone's spines. Needless to say, his gigantic stature and supreme tusk-like teeth made him look quite dangerous and dominating.

As Rout and Lok arrived, they spotted a few bottles of purple liquid on a table that was placed in front of them, Orc King.

Rout immediately knew that these bottles contained the poison.

"Lok, who do you think the culprit is?" The Orc king asked.

"I think the culprit is..."

But before Lok could say anything completely, Baramun started to gag. He vomited black blood.

As Lok saw Baramun throwing up black blood, he chuckled and immediately raised his voice - "Rout!" Lok said as he pointed towards the fourth brother.

"We have evidence too as you can see, the poison that he tried to use would corrode the blood making it black."

"The second brother is vomiting black blood too!"

"The poison takes about fifteen to twenty hours to take effect."

"And this poison can only be made from a certain type of herbs that are specifically found in Rout's territory."

"Without a doubt, one of his slaves must have successfully poisoned the food that the second brother was eating."

The Orc King merely remained quiet and let Lok speak everything.

"That's enough proof your majesty!"

"For committing such a crime, I would have asked your majesty to provide Rout with a death sentence, but since he is my youngest brother, I cannot bear to see him die…"

"So, I would rather ask him to be sent to prison for the rest of his life."

Lok said this and then looked at the second brother, whose body was violently shaking. He smiled and then showed thumbs up as if trying to say – "I fulfilled your wish my dear brother but at the cost of your life."

Baramun's eyes went completely bloodshot and blood started to leak through them.

"I am not the on-!", At that time Rout tried to reveal everything but Lok dashed toward him, approaching him within a second and punched him on his right cheek. But that wasn't the end as he continued punching Rout until he fell to the ground and as soon as he did he was hit by multiple kicks until his jaw was broken.

"You bastard! You dared to do all this and still try to justify yourself! Your little piece of shit, I am ashamed to say that you are my brother!", Lok said as he continued kicking Rout, preventing Rout from saying anything.

He kept punching Rout when suddenly he was forced to stop as he heard a bone-chilling voice, "That's enough Lok."

Listening to the Orc King's voice, Lok immediately stopped hitting Rout.

"Take him to prison!", Lok ordered.

Just as he did, the guards walked forward and dragged the beaten Rout to the prison as he tried to defend himself by merely murmuring as his throat had been damaged severely.

And while they did that, Baramun fell to the ground, unconscious, seconds after which, he departed from the world.

Lok's words again moved the soldiers and tasked them with removing Baramun's body from the scene.

"Sigh…"

"I never cared for them but that didn't mean that they would go and do such nonsense…", the Orc King murmured.

He then shook his head and said, "The land that Rout and Baramun controlled will now be shared among you and Galion."

Galion?

He was the eldest among the four Orc Brothers and the strongest too. In fact, he was just a couple of levels behind his father, the Orc King.

The difference between all the four Orc brothers was clear:

1] First Orc Brother, Galion – Lv.36: With superior strength, he once held the post of General in Orc King's army. Power, wit and leadership – he had them all. He was easily able to control other orcs and races. Just… he no more wants any fame and wants to live a carefree life.

2] Second Brother, Baramun – Lv.24: A muscle head. Nothing more, nothing less.

3] Third Brother, Lok – Lv.19: Smartest Orc. Lacks strength and is somewhat skinny. Instead of building muscle, he has strengthened himself in the study of mana and is thus, a mage – An Orc Mage.

4] Fourth Brother, Rout – Lv.17: The Laziest out of them and lacks any sort of strength. In fact, he is weaker than Lok in terms of physical strength, but his appearance says otherwise.

Lok looked towards Galion who was sitting in a carefree manner. He knew that if Galion wanted both the lands then he could get it with ease as he was the strongest Orc after the Orc king but fortunately, he wasn't interested in political matters and expanding control over lands.

All he wanted to do was live a carefree life…
