The Record of Orc Civilization



The sound of train wheels grinding against the rails and the engine's gears rotating filled the air. However, there was no sign of smoke emanating from the carriage as the train swiftly crossed the tracks.

Artur stared out the window, a habit he had since his first ride on the Mana Train. The passing trees blurred due to the train's speed. He pondered as he gazed at the sunlight filtering through the leaves and the shimmering dewdrops on them.

Once again, he sat alone in a cabin meant for two passengers. But Artur's name was renowned at the military academy as the second-ranked student in Class A15, the top class in the Demon's Slayer cohort. No one dared to take the seat in front of him.

Artur should have muttered, "Fairness is a son of a bitch" in his heart at this moment. However, it wasn't him who was envious of others' privileges this time—it was others who envied him. It was about time someone else cursed, "Fairness is a son of a bitch," when they saw Artur.

As a result, he could daydream as much as he pleased without being disturbed by some wannabe cool kid banging on his cabin door. Artur smiled, relishing the privilege that had only been enjoyed by noble children until now. Until his cabin door was pounded on.

*Knock! *Knock! *Knock!

Before Artur could get angry or invite the person inside, the door was audaciously opened by the intruder. Artur scowled and prepared to bark like a dog at another invading canine in his territory.

But the face of the intruder forced Artur to swallow his curses.

"Hehehe... Did you think you could escape from me? That only exists in your dreams, Artur!"

A redhead woman with a wide grin and squinted eyes stared mischievously at Artur. Her increasingly voluptuous bosom threatened to burst out of the sleeveless black tank top she wore. She only had on mini jeans that accentuated her alluring white thighs. Despite her revealing attire, she didn't feel cold or shiver at all, even though the air conditioning was working perfectly.

"Rini, what are you doing here?" Artur moved backward, trying to distance himself from the lioness before him.

Rini stepped forward, hands on her hips, making her two bosoms even more pronounced. "Hehehe, did you think you could escape after taking my virginity? Don't think for a second, sir, that you won't be responsible to me for the rest of your life!"

Hearing Rini's vulgar words, Artur's face flushed instantly. But this time, he wouldn't back down or turn the other cheek. "Your virginity? What about my virginity? Did that never cross your mind?"

Rini jumped with glee and casually sat next to Artur. She moved closer to him as he continued to try to distance himself. The sweet scent emanating from Rini's body reminded Artur of that night, causing his body to tense up.

"Hehehe... of course, I'll take responsibility, my lovely dear. I'll make you the warm presence in my bed forever." Rini licked her lips fiercely, stroking Artur's cheek, which was already covered in cold sweat.

Artur quickly brushed off Rini's hand and barked, "That means there's no debt between us. You took my virginity, and I took yours. Our business is finished!"

Rini didn't feel angry as her hand was harshly rejected. With a face that seemed like she was about to cry, she wiped her dry eyes and said, "Hik... hik... hik... men are all the same. They treat women like cigarettes—inhale the sweet and discard the butt! You're cruel, Artur."

"Pfft... I don't even feel like I inhaled a sweet, but rather like I was sucking on poison! Your bad acting won't deceive me, Rini!" Artur didn't buy any of Rini's words.

This time, Rini glared fiercely, pointing her finger and showing her teeth. "Oh yeah? Then what if it's not acting? Artur, take responsibility. You've impregnated me with your seed! Even though I told you to finish outside!"

Artur jerked back, hitting his head on the train wall. Rini truly didn't censor her words at all. She just spilled out without any prior thought. Artur was truly unfortunate to be targeted by a woman like her.

"Who would want to finish inside? Your legs were squeezing my body so tightly that I couldn't move!" Artur still remembered how Rini screamed not to release inside her womb, but her legs clamped his body so tightly that he couldn't move.

"Then why did you still do it and didn't resist? It means you wanted to impregnate me too, right!!!" Rini pointed her finger accusingly at Artur's forehead.

"Woman! There's something that a man can't hold back, even if he's half-dead trying!" Artur frustratedly brushed off Rini's hand once again.

"Bullshit!! Just say you love me and want to marry me!!" Rini lunged fiercely.

Artur panicked, trying his best to defend himself. "Hey... Hey... hey... hey... What the hell are you doing?!" However, every time he attempted to grasp something, his hands only met something soft, causing his body to heat up. Artur found himself replaying their struggle from that night, resulting in a certain part of his body becoming tense.

The cabin they were in was in disarray as two amateur wrestlers fought to defeat each other. One wrestler exerted great effort to make the other surrender, while the other fought hard to keep the wrestler's hands away from sensitive areas.

Eventually, Rini succeeded in pinning Artur beneath her. Both of them were gasping for breath, and Rini's red hair was a disheveled mess. Artur's clothes were tattered and showed scratches from Rini's nails on his chest.

"I win again. Now surrender and say that you love me!" Rini exclaimed triumphantly.

"Never!" Artur refused, even though he was struggling to breathe.

"You!! You stubborn fool! Why do you always reject me when it's clear you have feelings for me!" Rini looked desperate.

"A noblewoman like you will never understand!" Artur said, taking a breath amidst Rini's tightening grip.

"What don't I understand?! Explain it to me! Tell me! How can I understand if you never explain it!" Rini's eyes began to well up with tears.

Rini had never intended to fall in love with Artur, but her heart compelled her to do so. She had given everything to Artur, even her virginity, which she had preserved her whole life, but Artur continued to avoid her. In her pain, Artur escaped and returned to his hometown without informing Rini, and she only found out about it through Robert.

Filled with frustration, she chased after Artur's train with all her might and managed to enter his cabin. Rini thought Artur would accept her after witnessing the sacrifices she had made. However, Artur kept running and running, disregarding Rini's feelings as well as his own.

Contrary to what Rini thought, Artur was aware of Rini's sacrifices for him. Artur knew that Rini loved him sincerely, not just because of his friendship with Robert.

He loved the rough-redhead girl from the depths of his heart. He loved her more than he loved his own family. But it was because of that love that Artur had to keep running and running.

"Don't you understand it? Or are you too arrogant to see it? RINI, WE LIVE IN TWO DIFFERENT WORLDS!!!" Artur shouted in frustration.

Unbeknownst to him, tears welled up in his eyes. Artur had never cried, not even after Anna disappeared without a trace. Not even when Gilbert treated him harshly. Not even when Cila ignored him.

Rini released Artur from her grip, and the overflowing tears spilled down her cheeks. She stared at Artur with questioning eyes. "What do you mean? What do you mean we live in two different worlds? Are you searching for excuses to run away again? Artur, until when will you continue to be a coward like this?!"

Artur took a hurried breath as Rini loosened her hold on his neck, which felt like it might break. With a serious expression, he said, "It's not just an excuse or because I want to run. I may be a coward, but I do all of it for you!"

Rini became hysterical, pulling at her own hair, a few strands breaking. "What do you mean? Don't speak in confusing riddles like that!! Explain it to me!!"

Artur let out a long sigh. "Rini, don't you realize that I'm a commoner?"

"So what? Are you afraid that my family won't accept a commoner? Artur, even if you're a commoner, you're still a top-ranked cadet from the A-class military academy! You're a Level 2 Constellation Mage, your status is equivalent to other nobles! It can't be a reason for us not to be able to live together," Rini shook her head, scoffing at Artur's reasoning.

Artur looked at Rini with a compassionate gaze. "Rini, I never expected you to say that. Do you think being a top-ranked cadet from the A-class military academy means anything? Do you think being a Level 2 Constellation Mage means anything? Just think about how many servants in your family are Level 2 Constellation Mages."

Rini flinched but quickly shook her head. "They are different from you. They were born as servants in my family, so they swore loyalty to my family. You are someone who is free, you are a free mage."

Artur shook his head, gently stroking Rini's cheek and wiping the tears that fell from her eyes. "Rini, do you think they are loyal because of the vows they made? How many of them have achieved Level 6 Constellation Mage or at least Level 5 Constellation Mage? None, right? They are loyal because they are weak and incapable of fighting back! The same applies to me. Without my friendship with Robert, I'm just a weak ant that your family can trample on as they please. Do you think they would willingly marry off their daughter to me?"

Rini fell silent, her eyes wide open in shock.
