The Greatest Beast Tamer of Earth

Rishi noticed the orcs approaching him and his teammates; they halted after encircling Rishi and his team. Everyone was waiting for someone to appear, only the sound of drums could be heard all over the battlefield, and Rishi noticed that the sound of drums was becoming increasingly loud.

Rishi could feel the drummer getting closer after a while. He noticed that all of the Orcs in front of them had moved away, allowing an Orc with a large drum to be seen approaching. It was distinct from other Orcs because it had tattoos all over its body. When it got to the front, it started playing the drum even harder.

Rishi noticed four more Orcs with similar tattoos carrying an Orc wearing a crown behind him. Rishi deduced that it was the Orc village's leader, an Orc Lord. The drumming stopped as the Orc Lord approached, and Rishi saw many Orc leaders take out their blowing horns and blow them as if welcoming him.

When the Orc leader raised his hand, all of the Orcs halted. Then the Orc roared, "Chhiiiiii," and the other Orcs raised their hands and began shouting. Multiple battle cries could be heard all over the place. The Orcs were upbeat because they outnumbered humans by a large margin, and their Lord had joined the battle.

Rishi used his inspection skill and said, "It will be hell; there are far too many of them, and forty percent are in the advanced stage. Give it your all, everyone; don't hold back." He gave them each some potions to use as they saw fit.

"Chiwiik," The Orc Lord issued a command, the drummer struck the drum once, signaling the Orcs, and the Orcs obeyed the command. They were all arranged in different groups.

The drummer Orc struck the drum once more, commanding the first group to attack; the first group attacked humans from every angle.

Rishi's team was in a star formation, which was very effective when enemies surrounded you. Lalit, Dev, and Ajit defended the attack with help from Rishi, Manu, and Dilip. While Jay and Vakar were attempting to eliminate as many enemies as possible.

Jay attacked the enemy with his 'arrow rain' skill, while Vakar used his 'blood rain' combo skill to kill as many enemies as possible. When Dilip and Manu noticed an opening left by Jay and Vakar, they charged out and attacked as many enemies as possible.

The Orcs were caught off guard and could not defend themselves against Dilip and Manu, who quickly left after slaughtering as many Orcs as they could.

A group of 30 Orcs was slaughtered helplessly in front of the Orc Lord, and when it saw that the morale of his soldiers had fallen a little, he gave another command: "Chiwiik."

The Orcs gathered their will once more; the Orc Lord then gave the drummer some instructions, to which the drummer responded by nodding and hitting the drum twice.

The second Orc group advanced, and the drummer hit the drum three times, signaling the third group to join them; the drummer then hit the drum four and five times, signaling groups four and five to merge.

The drummer struck the drum once, and Group A, which was formed by combining the second and third groups, launched an attack.

When Jay and Vakar saw the size of the group and realized their abilities were about to attack the Orcs, they cast their spell first. The drummer struck the drum once more, and all of the orcs in Group A stopped and retreated; Rishi and Vakar's attacks missed, wasting much of their mana.

When the orcs saw how they fooled the humans, they cried out joyfully, and the drummer played the drum once more. The retreating Orcs halted and attacked Rishi's group once more.

Dev and his guild members were unprepared for it, so they were outnumbered by ten Orcs per person. "Dilip, Rishi, and Manu assist us while Jay and Vakar try to kill as many as possible without using attacks that cost a lot of mana," Dev said.

Dilip, Manu, and Rishi attacked the orcs attacking the three main defenders, relieving pressure on the three defenders. They, too, used their abilities to kill as many people as possible.

Jay and Vakar attempted to kill as many people as possible with their basic abilities. The battle continued, and Rishi and his team finished fifteen of their opponents. Just as they were about to clear the remaining Orcs, the drummer struck the drum once more.

All orcs fled; Manu and Dilip wanted to pursue them, but Dev advised them not to waste their energy; the fight had just begun.

"How simple it would have been to defend them if we destroyed their drum," Ajit observed.

"I know, but as I said at the beginning, relying on strategies to defeat our opponents will reduce the efficiency of our training; we will only use them when there is no other way," Rishi responded.

They debated how to proceed when they heard the drum sound again. The Orcs attacked again, but this time it was group B, which was formed by combining groups four and five.

Group B attacked, and the front members were outnumbered again; the situation was even worse this time, as fifteen orcs attacked each person at the front.

Rishi went to help Lalit, while Dilip and Manu helped Dev and Ajit. Jay and Vakar also decided to help their teammates this time because the situation was dire.

Jay helped Dev with Manu, and he used his 'rapid shooting' ability to shoot at the Orcs in groups. The damage he caused was minor, but it forced some Orcs to retreat. Manu took advantage of the situation and used his 'single strike' skill to pierce multiple enemies.

Vakar decided to use his ability 'Feather Attack' five times to attack different enemies; five sharp feathers moved towards their respective targets and stuck into their bodies, after which he used the second function of his ability by blasting all the feathers with 5 MP. This attack was very effective because it killed the opponent it hit while injuring the nearby enemies.

The fight continued for a while; Rishi and his teammates had finished half of their opponents and were about to finish the other when the drum sound came again, but this time the command was to order group A to attack as well.

Rishi's group was already getting exhausted; his teammates cursed the drummer. "If we win, I'm going to beat that drum with his head," Lalit joked.

"Add me as well; don't let this Bastard die easily," Manu said.

"Enough; focus on the battle; this Orc Lord doesn't care about his soldiers; they're just cannon fodder to him. He's using them to wear us down and finish us off when we're at our weakest, "Ajit stated.

"Who the hell was that moron who said me Orcs have poor intelligence? This Orc Lord is as cunning as a Fox," Dev commented.

"It's only this difficult because we're fighting without a plan. We could have easily defeated them if we had destroyed that drum," Rishi stated.
