At first, the Orc powerhouses, including War Chieftain "Destroyer's Horn," did not take the Earthlings seriously.
Though these black-haired, black-eyed fellows looked both mysterious and strange.
This world had always been home to countless races, wildly diverse in appearance and customs.
The liches who eternally guarded ancient tombs in the Death Desert.
The Frost Barbarians of the far northern tundra, who could gnaw ice and snow and breathe storms.
The Two-Headed Trolls with two heads and three arms.
The Abyss Demon Race, who lived in the Eternal Night Abyss, omnipotent in darkness yet scorched or even burned to death by sunlight.
The Turan Orcs had dealt with far too many foreign races.
They had gotten along fairly well with most of them.
Should they encounter one another in the wilderness, small-scale conflicts over survival resources were naturally unavoidable.
Yet they had never erupted into prolonged, large-scale war.
On one hand, their habitats lay far apart, making it no easy task to cross mountains and rivers to attack each other.
More importantly, all foreign races living in barren mountains and treacherous waters, in lands starved of resources, shared a common enemy.
The Holy Light Temple.
They also shared a common dream.
To conquer the Holy Light Land and become the masters of this world.
And they shared a common bottom line.
To survive the Purification Wars constantly launched by the Holy Light Faction.
And the Earthlings' black hair and black eyes made it obvious at a glance that they could not possibly belong to the Holy Light Faction.

Though they did not think much of the Earthlings.
