Titan King: Ascension of the Giant-Chapter 585: The child was innocent
Near the area bordering the insectoid territory, Orion, walking between the other two, suddenly stopped and turned to look at Prince Theodore.
"Giant King Orion, do you have doubts about our distribution method?"
Prince Theodore was somewhat baffled, assuming Orion wanted to discuss the allocation of resources in the insectoid territory.
Orion shook his head, indicating he had no issue with that.
"Theodore, Aldous, I have urgent business and need to return. I leave the matters concerning the insectoid territory to you."
Amidst the astonished gazes of Aldous and Prince Theodore, Orion transformed into lightning and sped rapidly south.
"Orion is my friend. He trusts Aldous greatly. Aldous won't let his friend suffer a loss!"
Ogre Aldous didn't inquire out of curiosity about what matter had arisen for Orion.
Aldous expressed to Prince Theodore that he would safeguard Orion's interests.
Prince Theodore, however, gazed in the direction Orion disappeared, frowning slightly.
"The Giant King headed south... and that strange look in his eyes just now... could it be..."
Could he have already found the information about Rose Manor?
This thought leaped into Prince Theodore's mind!
The deeper he considered it, the more certain Prince Theodore became.
"Surely the Giant King doesn't intend to force his way into the Human Kingdom, force his way into Rose Manor?"
At this thought, Prince Theodore felt the impulse to turn and give chase.
However, in the end, Prince Theodore did not turn back.
Because the Human Kingdom was protected by the King and two Grand Dukes; once Orion entered deep into the Human Kingdom, he would certainly be detected.
As for Rose Manor, his woman and child resided there; what could the Giant King possibly do to them?
Prince Theodore sighed. He was the one who had released the information; he had, in fact, somewhat anticipated Orion's current actions.
"Aunt, I hope the Giant King's appearance can change your situation."
Several days later, traveling at full speed, Orion quickly entered the Human Kingdom.
With Orion's current strength, no one could stop him, not even if the Human Saint appeared.
Orion could sense his own son through their bloodline connection.
However, if the distance was too great, even Orion couldn't manage it.
To verify if the giant cub at Rose Manor was indeed his bloodline, Orion, upon receiving the news from Delilah, resolutely decided to go and confirm it personally.
Rumble!
Thunder roared, and lightning flashed.
After entering the human nation, Orion made no attempt to conceal his aura. Instead, he unleashed the pressure of his Legendary level peak strength, sweeping southwards all the way.
As the terrifying pressure passed, every city it swept over attracted countless onlookers and alarmed numerous human experts.
Such a large commotion quickly alerted several Legendary level beings, and the news swiftly reached the royal palace, reaching the ears of the King and the two Grand Dukes.
Inside the royal palace, King Harold dismissed the maidservants and guards, approached a floor-standing magic mirror, and activated it.
Soon, the figures of Grand Duke Richard and Grand Duke William also appeared within the magic mirror.
"That Giant King is heading straight south. His destination is Rose Manor in the south."
"His target should be the newly born infant."
King Harold's voice was measured and calm, betraying neither anger nor joy.
In the magic mirror, Richard and William also offered no opinion.
Beings of their strength had long seen through many things; they looked only at the essence of matters.
"Cross-species offspring are exceedingly rare; we are all clear on this point."
"For that Giant King to recklessly enter our Human Kingdom shows he cares greatly about his son and is very anxious."
The speaker was Grand Duke Richard, who spoke while lowering his head in thought.
Regarding Orion's abrupt intrusion into the Human Kingdom, none of the three present raised an objection.
Frankly, giving Rose Manor to Princess Ava was also a result of the three of them secretly arranging it and reaching a consensus.
"News confirms the Giant King hasn't disturbed our cities. He went straight towards Rose Manor."
King Harold didn't offer an opinion but updated Orion's movements based on the latest information received, sharing it.
"It seems Giant King Orion still acts with measure. He doesn't wish to provoke conflict between our two races."
Grand Duke Richard had dealt with Orion before. Orion not destroying a single blade of grass or piece of wood in the human nation showed respect towards them.
Of course, this was also Orion expressing his own attitude.
With this bottom line established, any future matters between the Human Kingdom and the Stoneheart Horde could be discussed calmly.
"He has advanced to Legendary level peak!"
This was the information shared by Grand Duke Richard. Clearly, he had sensed Orion's aura.
Grand Duke Richard's voice held considerable surprise; this was the first time any emotional fluctuation had occurred since the three activated the magic mirror.
Legendary level peak!
This was an existence surpassing the three of them. In the current Human Kingdom, likely only the appearance of the Saint could expel Orion.
"It seems the Giant tribe will be the fifth major race of the South." novelbuddy.cσ๓
"The original Five-Race Alliance is now truly worthy of its name."
This was an affirmation from King Harold, an affirmation of the Stoneheart Horde.
"Your Majesty, what are your thoughts?"
Ava was King Harold's sister. The King's opinion, in handling this matter, served as both an instruction and a definition.
And Richard and William would unconditionally support His Majesty the King for their common interests.
"Let's wait. Wait until the outcome between them emerges, then we'll see!"
'Them', of course, referred to Princess Ava and Giant King Orion.
The imperial princess had been abducted to the giant territory. Although she was welcomed back, her reputation had been damaged.
If, through the child, Princess Ava and Giant King Orion could marry and be together, it would actually be a good thing for Ava.
Of course, for the Human Kingdom, it would be an even better thing.
If Giant King Orion acknowledged Ava, it would mean the relationship between the Human Kingdom and the Stoneheart Horde would transform into one of marriage alliance.
This held significant and far-reaching importance for the stability of the Human Kingdom's surrounding environment.
Naturally, for Princess Ava, she would also wash away the stigma of her violated chastity.
For the newly born infant, it was also a very positive development.
This way, Ava's child wouldn't grow up filled with negative emotions regarding his origins.
Such considerations were all things King Harold had to think about.
From the perspective of a king, he did not wish for war to break out in the kingdom, nor did he wish for his sister to live amidst the slander and gossip of others.
Of course, he also didn't wish for his newly born nephew to be plunged into dire straits from the moment of birth.
The child was innocent.
