Come, try my handiwork.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ava's belly was already quite large, making it inconvenient for her to stand. She leaned back at a dining table, savoring the cake she had personally baked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The taste of childhood, I had almost forgotten it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Prince Theodore glanced at Ava's belly, nearing full term, a touch more concern showing on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coming to sit at the dining table, Prince Theodore tasted three pieces of cake before speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is everything here still plentiful?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Princess Ava smiled, shook her head, a gentleness she had never shown before gracing her features.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is one of the finest manors in the kingdom. It has everything one could possibly need; nothing is lacking.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Prince Theodore nodded, picking up another piece of cake and chewing it thoughtfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A new batch of magical plants has matured in the palace. My father asked me to bring some for you. I've already had the guards store them in the manor's warehouse.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Princess Ava nodded, the gentle smile unwavering on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tomorrow, I'm heading north to Soaring Bird City. There are rare items there from other territories. Is there anything you desire?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Prince Theodore's tone was casual, like everyday conversation, neither deliberate nor concealing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Princess Ava looked up, glanced at Prince Theodore, her gentle expression unchanged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't lack supplies here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're going north alone; be cautious, stay safe!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of the north, the image of that giant flashed fleetingly in Princess Ava's eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The north was a dangerous place; it was where she had been imprisoned by the giant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Ava offered a reminder to Prince Theodore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Soaring Bird City has stabilized and developed. I'm going this time precisely to finalize our interests there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will claim your share for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ava nodded, noncommittal about Theodore's initiative.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following this, Prince Theodore rested at Rose Manor for a day, then mounted his gryphon(griffin) the next morning and headed north.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the window of the manor's master bedroom, Princess Ava watched the receding squadron of griffins, her hand resting on her belly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As her belly grew larger, the child within became more distinct, and Princess Ava was trying to accept everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Initially, Ava had felt disgusted. She wasn't Orion's wife; she had been forced, treated merely as a toy for Orion's sexual release.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then she became pregnant, carrying the child of Giant King Orion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a thing was truly unimaginable, unacceptable to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sometimes, Ava even felt hatred towards the child in her womb, stemming from her hatred for the child's father.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But slowly, as she began to feel the small life's breath and heartbeat within her, Ava changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn't know when, but the hatred in Ava's heart vanished, replaced mostly by confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then, breaking through the confusion, was the increasingly clear connection from within her belly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That thrumming connection of shared blood allowed Ava to let go, and gradually, anticipation began to grow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If there's anyone to blame, it can only be myself! Honestly, besides being a bit rough, that Giant King wasn't bad to me, especially since his sexual prowess was too formidable...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The concern from Ava's brother and nephew, Prince Theodore, was genuine; Ava could feel it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, Ava could also sense that His Majesty the King and Prince Theodore held great expectations for the child in her womb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This child carried not only the bloodline of the Giant King but also that of the human royal family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His birth would be a link, a connection deepening the alliance between the Human Kingdom and the Stoneheart Horde.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ava understood these implications.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, she had resisted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, she accepted it, and she hoped to secure more benefits for her child.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No matter how difficult the future may be, I will pave the way for your growth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Prince Theodore's visit was not just out of concern for Ava, but also for the child within her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through this child, Prince Theodore could gain much more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, conversely, a Prince Theodore who gained more could also provide more support for the child in Ava's womb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, they shared half of the same bloodline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What matter would require you to travel north alone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ava didn't know the specifics, but whatever could compel Prince Theodore to go personally must be significant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the northern Soaring Bird City, only the blood elves, ogres, and giant tribes possessed Legendary level beings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only when Prince Theodore's figure became a black dot and completely vanished into the sky did Ava withdraw her gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, aboard the flying mount, the griffin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Prince Theodore wore an expression of hesitation and contemplation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Ava's relative, Prince Theodore and his father were genuinely concerned for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the desire to leverage the impending birth for greater benefits and connections was also real.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two aspects didn't conflict, nor could they truly be called scheming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because there were certain things, certain truths, that the child in Ava's womb would have to face sooner or later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since facing them was inevitable, Prince Theodore felt that laying the groundwork early and securing the necessary benefits was the best course of action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During this visit, Prince Theodore hadn't seen resistance or hatred on his Aunt Ava's face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Undeniably, this was a positive sign.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The aunt with a gentle face was the aunt of his memories.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sigh...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Prince Theodore slowly exhaled. Before coming to see Ava, he had already decided to subtly inform the Giant King about the child.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after seeing Aunt Ava, he found himself hesitating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aunt, since you've chosen to let him be born, you must let him face everything.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Having the Giant King as support might actually be a good thing for him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One stark reality was that the child of Princess Ava and Giant King Orion would certainly not be acknowledged by the mainstream factions of the Human Kingdom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To put it bluntly, the child would definitely not gain acceptance from the upper echelons obsessed with noble bloodlines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This meant Ava's child wouldn't have a particularly bright future within the Human Kingdom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this unborn child possessed the bloodline of the Giant King.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This also meant the child's potential for growth would be very high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And everything His Majesty the King and Prince Theodore were doing was aimed at helping this child draw more 'nourishment' from the precarious space between humans and giants.\u003C\u002Fp>",1150,"2026-05-29T15:49:28.191Z","2026-06-01T04:29:39.741Z",1,"novelbin.me","019d99920ce0b50e415113b2e08e5dd4fbcea966db35c9334bc1fc3d10675b21","titan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-chapter-575","titan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-chapter-573",1606,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftitan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-cover.jpg"]
