The Record of Orc Civilization-Chapter 102 The Humans Strongest

Arkaan el-Mahdavi walked quickly into the meeting room. The turban on his head was not tied neatly so that it seemed to sway every time he took a step. Arkaan didn't even have time to wash his face after getting the meeting call.

The second mana explosion in Bog forest has a very different impact from the first mana explosion. If at first humans were just curious, but now humans can't stay silent. It was confirmed that if Deak Oliver a Mana Child was killed from that mana explosion, Deak's status as a Mana Child was not that important since humans had several other Mana Childs. However, his status as a disciple of Gaht made things even more complicated.

As a teacher, Gaht has a responsibility to avenge his student's death. This is the tradition of the military academy where a teacher is responsible for the lives of his students. A disciple is the face of his teacher, so hurting a student is the same as tarnishing the face of his teacher. Moreover, if the student is killed then the war between the teacher and the killer has started, there will be no peace until one of them is killed.

However, this tradition has a different meaning when the one killed is the disciple of the strongest human. When Gaht goes to war then the fight is no longer a personal matter but an all-out war of humans.

If likened to the previous Moku world, then Gaht is a nuclear bomb, when he is launched into the atmosphere, the country that launched it has decided to all-out war and destroyed all living things in the enemy country. Meanwhile, humans today no longer have fangs like they used to.

The long peace made them weak and the leaders who were once savage wolves were now lazy dogs. Arkaan took a deep breath when he thought about it.

He reached the meeting room entrance. Arkaan adjusted his clothes and took a deep breath, with determination he pushed open the door.

His whole sense of hearing was then filled with shouts.

"You fucking old dog!! They kill my student! My student!! Who are you to dare hinder me from my revenge!!" Gaht shouted and pointed at the man in front of him.

"Gaht! You must understand your position! You are not only a teacher but also the strongest human being!! If you fight that means every human being will fight!! This will not only be your fight but an all-out war!!" Calvin Lewis defends his opinion.

He was the second strongest human that the human alliance have. In the first mana species war, he and Gaht become a duo who fight hand in hand but in the era of peace, they become two figures from two opposing camps.

"Gaht! Deak's death is your fault for sending him to the Bog forest without our knowledge. Haven't we already decided not to interfere with this new mana species? It's his fault for approaching that place, Deak is too arrogant and haughty that he feels he can face the new mana species alone" Jagadip Badakar scoffed.

As the representative and strongest mage of the House of Badakar, Jagadip is one of Lewis' supporters. Even though their influence and power had decreased considerably from the time of the Mana Ruling Family, the 6 families --except the Zietsman Clan who disappeared somewhere-- still had influence within the Gurru Committee. Most of them become sponsors of PSA-graduated mages and are trusted to become members of the Gurru Committee.

"The student's life is the teacher's responsibility even if the student search for death for himself, the teacher still needs to take revenge on whoever kills the student. It's our culture of teaching in this academy! So none of you have the right to hinder Gaht to take his revenge!" Usilov Valya defends Gaht's anger.

Like the House of Badakar, the House of Valya has also chosen its side. They use marriage and family relationships to get closer to PSA-graduated mages. Due to some unknown things, the House of Valya became a supporter of the Gaht party.

Even so, the Gaht party except for Stent Gaht himself still had a weaker influence than the Lewis party. Especially after the House of Spencer and several well-known alchemists joined the Lewis party.

Arkaan entered the room and went to his seat. His presence seemed unnoticed by the other committee members. Even though the Mahdavi Clan was the first Mana Ruling Family to join PSA, in times of peace their influence was so reduced they were invisible in the committee.

The mages still respected them but their opinions often sounded like the wind that just passes in the committee. Even so, Arkaan still attends every meeting of the Gurru Committee. At least he wanted to get news faster about the movement of the human alliance from this meeting.

"You late! If I know you will be late, I won't come sooner and spend time with my wife." Bima Rangkuti blamed Arkaan with an annoyed face.

"Stop moving your old hips, give my sister some break will you?" Arkaan smirked at his friend.

"W..wha..what are you talking about? you are already that old but your mind is still full of perverted thoughts. If anyone asks don't say I know you!" Bima sneered at his brother-in-law.

Just like hundreds of years before, the Mahdavi Clan and Rangkuti Clan still had a good relationship. Cross-marriage between the two families is increasingly common in times of peace. Like Arkaan's younger sister, who married Bima; and Arkaan's mother is Bima's biological aunt.

"I envy Zietsman.." Bima has complained about this many times. He then glanced at Arkaan with a gaze full of resentment "Why do I need still be here? If not because of you, I already have a peaceful life in some secluded mountain"fr𝚎e𝙬𝚎𝚋𝚗૦ν𝚎𝒍.c૦m

Similar to the Mahdavi Clan, the Rangkuti Clan also has little influence on the Gurru Committee, but this is because they want to withdraw from the human alliance political stage. However, the family head of the Rangkuti Clan was required to attend the committee meeting, for one reason namely that the Mahdavi Clan had not yet left the Gurru Committee.

As their oldest ally, Rangkuti Clan still needs to support the Mahdavi Clan in Gurru Committee.

"hei.. hei.. stop looking at me like that, it's not my fault you want to marry my sister" Arkaan dodged.

"Fuck! You are the one who demands that only the head of the Rangkuti Clan can marry her!" Bima furious.

His voice was too big, causing several members of the meeting to glance at the two of them with scornful eyes. Bima held back his anger and Arkaan held back his laughter.

The debate is still ongoing. Various kinds of opinions that would and would not make sense were raised by both sides. Gaht's anger grew bigger there was a possibility that he would go on a rampage in this meeting and kill them all. But there is no anxiety from the Lewis party about it, even though Gaht is very strong but he has a good heart and will prioritize human interest first.

Sometimes even the strongest person will be imprisoned by something that is not important to the weak person. However, if you continue to annoy the lion, then don't blame him if he pounces on you.

"Hei.. hei.. Do you think he will get out of control and kill us all this time?" Bima spoke in a relaxed tone as if his life was not in danger.

Arkaan glanced at his friend with narrowed eyes, sometimes there was regret in his heart for marrying his only sister to this crazy man. "You know that's impossible. He only looks angry but still can think straight. He is a hero you know. Moreover, he will not throw a tantrum until there is a unanimous decision and a unanimous decision must wait for 'them' to speak" Arkaan indicated to some group.

"Hmm.. you're right. By the way, why have they been silent all this time?" Bima blatantly stared at the group sitting in the middle of the two arguing parties. Wuhan Clan.

If we divide the Gurru Committee by party, then we can divide it into 3 parties ---4 if you want to include loners like Bima and Arkaan--. The Lewis party controlled the circulation of [Mana Potion] and the number of alchemists who joined them, the Gaht party with strength based on the strongest human Stent Gaht, and lastly the Wuhan party.

The Wuhan party was not formed because of the large number of PSA-graduated mages or Mana Ruling Family mages who joined them. However, their strength was based on a profession that had never existed before in the history of human civilization, Adventure.

Currently, the number of adventure mages working for the Wuhan party is almost a quarter the number of mages in the military academy. So the influence and strength of the Wuhan party are something to consider.

They always took a neutral position between the two competing parties and took advantage of both. They sell rare plants and mutated animal organs to alchemists in the Lewis party and provide mage 'training' services to the Gaht party.

So it can be said that it was the Wuhan party that made the Gurru Committee not break up and fight each other, but on the other hand, it can also be said that they had a big voice in making a unanimous decision in this committee. Because of this, Bima and Arkaan were confused by the Wuhan party, which had been silent since the meeting started.

"Gaht! If you go to Bog forest and fight with that new mana species, warbeast and elves will see our defense have a hole and take that opportunity to strike us. Without you, we will be overwhelmed if Beast King or Iron Darius and Lily Ariel come to attack! Think about human safety first before your anger!" Hugh Spencer punches the table with an angry face.

"Don't bring human safety to defend your cowardness! If they attack then we will--"

"hm..hm.." the clear-throat sound cut off the words of the mage from the Gaht party. It was the chough of Fu Wuhan, the chairman of the Wuhan party. The mage sat back down and waited for Fu to speak. Even though he had his words cut off, he didn't feel offended and sat quietly.

"You don't need scare about elves or warbeast attacks. They already got too many problems on their hand right now. The problem that makes them can't be bothered about humans at all. The problem that will come to us if we don't do something to hinder it" Fu spoke in a very serious tone.

"Fu, what do you mean? don't talk with riddle tell the truth" Gaht snorted.

"Well.. it's the same problem that we have discussed before, the new mana species or we can call them with their actual species name, the demon"𝒇𝙧𝚎𝐞𝙬𝒆𝑏𝑛𝑜v𝚎𝒍.c𝑜m
