Hail the King Chapter 996

Chapter 996: I Am Human (Part One)

After seeing what Fei did, other orc masters looked at Fei with gentler gazes. It was obvious that they thought Fei was one of them.

However, Fei didn't respond.

With the king's shameless personality, if he could, he would pretend to be an orc warrior, get along with this team of orc masters, and get as much information about the Behemoth Orc Tribe as he could.

If the Behemoth Orc Tribe wanted to come back to the continent, Chambord was going to be the first stop that they would run into if they walked out of the Endless Sea of Forests.

The king wasn't sure about the att.i.tude that the Behemoth Orc Tribe had towards humans. If they were hostile toward humans, Chambord might face a terrifying war.

Unfortunately, Fei couldn't fake being an orc warrior forever; his Druid character's skill [Werewolf] had a time limit. With his current strength at h.e.l.l Mode level 100, he could only maintain the werewolf form for about 24 hours.

After thinking for a while, Fei decided to be honest and open about it; he was going to expose his ident.i.ty as a human. He didn't need to worry about his safety since he could leave at any time; none of the orc masters here could stop him. In the worst-case scenario, he could test out the att.i.tude that orcs had toward humans.

Therefore, Fei canceled the effect of [Werewolf] and returned to his human form in the next moment.

“What? A human?”

“How is this possible?”

Seeing Fei's appearance changing, the orc masters couldn't help but gasp; they couldn't comprehend what just took place.

Even the handsome priest of the Fox Clan was surprised, and his face changed color.

Fei gradually calmed down a bit. After he switched back to his human form, the orc masters were surprised but didn't show any strong hostility.

“It seems like the behemoth orcs' impression of humans isn't that bad. Could it be that the two races weren't enemies in the Mythical Era?” Fei thought.

To these orc masters, the shock didn't end there.

After Fei removed the effect of [Werewolf], he used the Druid skill [Werebear].

The king's body suddenly enlarged! While he was engulfed in the silver light, his body increased in size by about four times. Fine brown fur grew out of his skin, and he turned into a half-human, half-bear creature who was about six meters tall. He had a bear head but a human-shaped body.

“Bear Clan?” The wolf warrior who was quite fond of Fei was shocked, and his expression changed.

“How is this possible? Isn't he a member of the Wolf Clan?” Battier, the master of the Spider Clan, gasped, and shock filled his compound eyes.

The master of the Ape Clan subconsciously poked the dark-skinned master of the Bear Clan beside him, and he said, “Hey, O'Neal, is he your long-lost brother? How come he knows the [Atavistic Transformation] of your Bear Clan? You two look similar. However, his brown fur looks prettier than your black fur.”

O'Neal of the Bear Clan scratched the back of his head using his big bear paw, and he said in his deep voice while looking charmingly naïve, “Eh, yeah. I didn't think that… Hey, Little Bro, are you really a member of the Bear Clan? Wait, how come I have never seen you before in the clan?”

Fei smiled but didn't respond to O'Neal's question; this big man left a good impression in his mind.

The king waved his hand, and a giant yellow bear appeared by his side after a white light flashed by. Then, it roared at the orc masters around Fei.

Chapter 996: I Am Human (Part Two)

This time, the eyes of the orc masters almost popped out of their eye sockets.

“Battle beasts of two different clans?”

“What is going on? Could it be that he has both the wolf clan bloodline and bear clan bloodline?”

“This is impossible! Battle beasts of two clans, yet he can keep the appearance of a human. Is he the most beloved child of Beast G.o.d?”

Like a flock of sparrows that were poked by someone, the orc masters suddenly started to chatter and talk amongst themselves. With a shocked expression on their faces, they looked at Fei like how a person on Earth would react if a prehistoric dinosaur suddenly appeared.

Seeing this, Fei instantly put these orc masters in the same category as b.u.mpkins.

The only person who was relatively calm was Great Priest Nash of the Fox Clan.

This handsome, middle-aged fox-man lightly chanted something and asked, “I'm even more confused. Sir, please tell us. Are you a human? Or a behemoth orc?”

To these orcs, what they saw was unbelievably rare.

In the history of the Behemoth Orc Tribe, it was rare to see a mixed-blood orc who had the bloodline of both the Wolf Clan and the Bear Clan. The main reason was that these two clans were the main battle clans in the tribe; they were the king clans. They all had strong pride and honor, so it was rare to see a marriage between members of the two clans.

Also, even if two orcs from different clans got married, their descendants could only keep the features and innate skills of one of the parents almost 100 percent of the time.

In the worst-case scenario, some of the descendants of interspecies marriages were beasts without high-level intelligence. The orcs called them 'beast relatives'.

Therefore, when Fei showed his appearance as a werewolf and werebear and summoned giant white wolves and a giant brown bear, these dozens of orc masters felt like the world that they knew collapsed.

All the orc masters were waiting for Fei's answer.

“I'm human.” Fei smiled and replied to Nash. After he removed the effect of [Werebear] and pulled back the summoned beasts, he said earnestly, “I'm Alexander, the Lord of the Chambord Kingdom which is a level 1 affiliated kingdom of the Zenit Empire in the Northern Region of Azeroth.”

This answer pulled Nash and other orc masters into disbelief, and they were extremely disappointed. To them, this mysterious person's ident.i.ty as a king and stuff was meaningless. The only thing they cared about was that this man who could summon two kinds of battle beasts wasn't a member of the Behemoth Orc Tribe but a human.

“How is this possible?” the orc masters all screamed in their minds.

“Since you are a human, how come you know the Atavistic Transformations of the Wolf Clan and the Bear Clan, and how can you summon battle beasts which are unique to behemoth orcs?” Great Priest Nash of the Fox Clan asked unwillingly.

This time, Fei's answer wasn't as straightforward. “I don't know. When I was 18 years old, I suddenly obtained these techniques as if I were born with them.”

This answer was factually true yet very misleading.

Even if the orc masters investigated this claim on the Azeroth Continent, they couldn't find anything wrong.

The entire Azeroth Continent knew that Human Emperor Alexander of the North was an idiot before turning 18 years old. Only when he was 18 years old did he suddenly show unparalleled talent and quickly became a young lord.

“Huh?” Great Priest Nash was clearly misled by the trap in the king's words. As if he suddenly thought of something, he asked in surprise, “Suddenly obtaining the skills? Could it be a Bloodline Memory Inheritance?”
