Go on, keep going.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was the meaning in Delilah's eyes, but what she got in return was Orion's upturned lips and mischievous grin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You've done a lot for the Horde recently. Don't you want something in return?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Delilah's hazy eyes went blank for a moment. She had never thought about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn't remember when it began, but she'd already seen the Stoneheart Horde as something that belonged to both Orion and herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Managing her own enterprise—did it require compensation?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, it didn't.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was Delilah's answer, and it was exactly what Orion most wanted to see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's yours now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion took out a storage ring and slipped it onto Delilah's finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During his time in the Valkorath Realm, Orion had traded with Arthas and Leonidas for a total of five storage rings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soraya and Lilith each had one. Now Delilah had one as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the grand steward of the Stoneheart Horde, keeping important resources and key items on her at all times was the best arrangement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is a storage ring, and I've placed a gift inside it for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After putting the ring on Delilah, Orion casually mentioned it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Delilah raised her palm, trying to sense it curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, she shuddered all over, stiffening in Orion's embrace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Th-this…this is…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion gave a faint smile and continued on Delilah's behalf.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's what you deserve.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Managing the Horde has delayed your cultivation and cost you some time.

Overcome by passion and gratitude, she used her kisses and her vagina to express her thanks to Orion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion had no objection to Delilah's initiative. He simply lay back and let Delilah straddle his cock, indulging their desires to the fullest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once they finished making love, Delilah lay in Orion's arms, letting his large hands continue roaming across her body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There's a human lord named Torin who wishes to see you.\"(*'lord' is just a status, not a reflection of his strength*)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"His territory used to be in the area bordering the ogre lands and the human kingdom, called Soaring Bird City.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Based on intelligence from the Sentinel Corps, his territory is already occupied by someone else.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In other words, he has nothing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He offered three items as tribute in hopes of meeting you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Delilah, eyes half-closed as she enjoyed Orion's caresses, recounted each thing that had happened recently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are the items that human lord offered really valuable?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion withdrew his hand and went to sit on his throne, his tone quite calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew Delilah well enough: if there were nothing of value to catch his attention, she wouldn't have bothered mentioning it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One of the things he offered is similar to the items you ordered everyone to search for.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke, Delilah extended her hand, and a Bagbird pouch on the floor flew into her palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, a miniature building appeared in Delilah's hand, which she presented to Orion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Colosseum]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Type: Special Building\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Item Description: A special place representing defiance and courage in the evolution of civilization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Note: The colosseum can convert eligible slaves into gladiators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this item made Orion's heart pound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't that he was surprised about the [Colosseum] itself; there was a more pressing thought: survivors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That human might very well be another survivor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, it was also possible that he wasn't, and that Torin just happened to have collected the [Colosseum] by accident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But such a possibility seemed slim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What was that human's name again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion's voice sounded once more, tinged with an inexplicable emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Delilah, familiar with him, was puzzled by this. She looked up at Orion in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Torin. He's the lord of Soaring Bird City.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you know where Soaring Bird City is located?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes. It's the first stop you'd reach when coming from the human kingdom.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Have him come see me tomorrow. I want to know what he's after.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tempering his curiosity, Orion calmed himself again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Torin truly was a fellow survivor, Orion would examine him and put him to use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not, Orion could just capture him, make him sign a slave contract, and get to the bottom of his reasons for wanting a meeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Some mercenaries have headed toward our other four cities. Should we drive them away?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was Delilah's next concern. The four cities the Stoneheart Horde planned were still under construction, and she couldn't guess the mercenaries' intentions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just keep an eye on them. There's no need to force them out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We just have to make sure they don't walk off with our territory's resources for free.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about the other two items Torin offered?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion was curious what else Torin had to bring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Delilah rummaged in the Bagbird pouch and came up with a magic gem and a bottle of mysterious perfume.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a single glance, Orion lost interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The magic gem wasn't of a particularly high grade—though it was still relatively rare within the Stoneheart Horde. As for the mysterious perfume, it was clearly intended as a gift specifically for Delilah.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, aside from the colosseum, Torin's contributions weren't that impressive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That implied Torin's personal inventory wasn't especially deep—he might even be on the verge of poverty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Orion could guess Torin had no idea of the [Colosseum]'s real significance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, there was no way he'd hand it over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This works out nicely. The colosseum we built previously can be upgraded and condensed at the same time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion pondered silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stoneheart City, outer district.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside a Blood Elf shop, Taran and Thalion stood at the counter, staring at a pair of enchanted gauntlets, utterly unable to look away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dear warrior, these gauntlets were crafted from the silk of elastic spiders. They're inscribed with a high-level magical formation blueprint, providing a burn effect on your attacks…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you want to purchase them, it'll cost a thousand silver Blackstone coins (also known before as Stoneheart coins).\" (Blackstone coins come in three varieties—gold, silver, and copper.)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Pandaren Taran nodded. He carried plenty of Blackstone coins, partly earned by exchanging loot for currency with the Horde, and partly from the army's salary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you think?
