"Rimuru Tempest, the one who stands above monsters, and Accelerator, the human who stands by him, please defeat the Orc Lord"

The dryad had asked for our help to defeat this Orc Lord, which did confirm that the Unique monster does actually exist and is leading those Orcs right now

Benimaru wanted to know why she asked us and not other races since there are stronger ones then the hobgoblins which led her to explain rid the Ogres weren't wiped out she may have asked them

But she further explained that she could no longer ignore the existence of me and Rim, after that explanation she looked at me with a bit of playful anger however

"Though that stunt you pulled a while ago that destroyed the forest isn't something I'm happy about"

"Yeah yeah, I've seen the area and it's fixed so I'm assuming you had something to do with that, *she nods*, though for what's it worth I'm sorry for that"

Rim looked at me for a second in shock that I apologized which I responded with a slight glare that got him to look away

Rim then decided to speak about her offer

"Give me some time, I need some more information before I can come to a conclusion, me and Aki are the leaders, we have to know what we are dealing with"

We went back to the meeting with Treyni now joining us while she sipped tea and ate some potato chips, since when did we even make these?

Anyways Shuna asked Souei if he investigated their village to which he said he did and found none of theirs or the Orcs

"Wait none of what?"

"Bodies"

This got Rim and some others to be shocked which caused Benimaru to explain a bit

"We wondered how they got supplies for such a large army, it seems that they eat the corpses of their victims, as well as their own fallen"

Treyni then explained it was due to the unique skill [Starved] which made the Orcs under the Orc Lord have a never ending hunger which leads them to eat the corpses of those they defeat to gain strength, similar to Rim's [Predator]
Eat opponents. Get strength

She also explained that the Orc Lord is being controlled by a Majin, who's a subordinate to a Demon Lord, which made the Ogres tense up a bit with Benimaru clutching his fist a bit

After all this information she asked once more though

"Rimuru Tempest and Accelerator, I must ask once again. Please defeat the Orc Lord"

Rim stood up and looked to be in deep thought, until Shion basically jumped on him and said they'd do it

"Poor Rim, doesn't even make the decision. Well not like he was gonna refuse anyway"

This made Rim ask say that he'd need everyone on board which they all accepted as they stood up, they all looked at me since I wasn't standing though

*sigh* "Yeah, don't worry Dyrad, we'll take care of this Orc Lord"

This got everyone to cheer a bit till Rim said he wanted to get an alliance with the lizardmen but he didn't want to talk to that idiot again, which I agreed with, so Souei said he'd talk to the chief which Rim accepted and he disappeared

All and all we discussed a bit of a plan then later Souei returned and said we'd go in 7 days so Rim decided he'd plan a bit and while I was gonna leave he forcefully grabbed me by the back of my shirt collar and dragged me with him saying I wasn't gonna leave the problem to him again this time

Timeskip: 5 days

No Ones POV

During the time Rimuru and Aki aka Accelerator were planning and getting ready, with the lizardmen, specifically Gabiru, when he had awoken he was met with a Majin who said he was Laplace, a subordinate of Lord Gelmud, he then persuaded the idiot to become the chief now since his father couldn't do it due to his age, which was a lie but the idiot believed easily

This led to him overthrowing his father and deciding to face the Orc army with those who also did not like the plan his father had of waiting for Rimuru Tempest and they fought the Orcs on their turf

It went well for a while with the lizardmen's speed being able to get around the Orcs and defeat some, however they were shocked when they saw that the Orcs had started devouring the corpses of their fallen fighters as a eerie purple glow surrounded them as they gained more strength

Gabiru did not know of the Orc Lords terror, however his father did, that difference in knowledge is what was going to lead them to fighting a fight much tougher then they thought

"Sir Gabiru! They're eating the bodies!"

"Dear lord.. What is happening?"
