After completing a series of tasks, the sky gradually dimmed.
As the sun set behind the mountains, the residents returned from outside and gathered together to enjoy their dinner.
The dinner was sumptuous, with various meats, vegetables, and seafood laid out on the square.
This was because new residents had joined, and they wanted them to experience the prosperity of the Ocean Crown, using food to win their hearts.
Everyone ate with joy and contentment, creating a scene of happiness and tranquility.
Among them, the half-orcs ate the most, stuffing chunks of meat into their mouths as if their lives depended on it, resembling hungry ghosts finding their home.
After the satisfying meal, the residents began to sing and dance.
Even the well-fed half-orcs joined in, dancing to the primitive half-orc dance while making peculiar sounds.
With a rhythmic and melodic beat, both humans and kobolds couldn’t resist joining the festive dance.
The peculiar dance unknowingly broke down much of the barrier between the half-orcs and other residents, subtly raising their affinity towards one another.
Ji Chen watched this scene with satisfaction, nodding approvingly.
As the supreme lord, he couldn’t easily join the celebration, so he quietly returned to the Lord Manor.
However, at the entrance, he saw Lady Irona waiting for him.
“Lady Irona, do you need something from me?” Ji Chen asked as he approached her.
Lady Irona hesitated for a moment upon seeing Ji Chen, then nodded and replied.
“In that case, come inside, and we can talk,” Ji Chen said casually.
The two of them walked into the Lord Manor one after the other.
Lady Irona locked the door behind them, much to Ji Chen’s surprise.
She then slowly approached him.
With each step, her clothes fell to the ground until she stood before him completely naked.
Ji Chen looked at her with astonishment. “What are you doing?”
Lady Irona blushed but maintained her composure. “Among the half-orcs, the submissive party must offer everything to the strong. Males offer their lives and strength, while females offer their bodies to bear offspring, in return for the protection of the strong.”
“So, as the representative leader of the Toothwood Tribe… as a half-orc, I should offer everything to you,” Lady Irona said, her voice trembling with embarra.s.sment.
After finishing her words, Lady Irona couldn’t bear it any longer and lowered her head, as if trying to reduce her sense of shame.
Ji Chen looked at Lady Irona’s unexpectedly attractive figure and squinted his eyes. A hint of interest appeared on his face.
It seemed like there would be some entertainment tonight.
“I’ve been curious for a long time, how did such a pet.i.te being like you come to be born in the half-orc tribe? I’ve noticed that the female half-orcs are usually big and strong.”
Lady Irona lazily lay on Ji Chen’s chest, not even bothering to move a finger, and replied leisurely, “My father was a half-orc, and my mother was a human, which is why I turned out more like a human.”
Ji Chen suddenly realized.
So that was the reason. It seemed that her mother’s genes were quite powerful to compete with the burly half-orcs and make her offspring more human-like.
He didn’t delve deeper into why Lady Irona’s mother, a human, would be in a half-orc tribe.
However, he guessed that it might be a story of a half-orc kidnapping a human girl while she was out playing and bringing her back home, leading to some explicit scenes that couldn’t be allowed on the page.
This plotline was quite familiar to him.
While Lady Irona was resting lazily, she suddenly frowned, feeling something unusual in her body. A hint of panic flashed in her eyes, and she looked up, pleading, “Lord, I can’t continue, please do it again next time…”
But Ji Chen interrupted her words, his expression becoming stern. “Lady Irona, you wouldn’t want the lives of the half-orcs to become unpleasant, right?”
Upon hearing this, Lady Irona’s body stiffened, and she stopped struggling. Her eyes shimmered with teardrops. “As long as you treat the half-orcs well, I… I’m willing to do anything.”
“That’s the right att.i.tude. Don’t worry, I will treat them all fairly. As long as you cooperate, everything will be fine….”
