If he possessed power equal to Orion's, he certainly wouldn't allow anyone else to touch these benefits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could he know about Ava's pregnancy?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is he trying to compensate Ava through me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had to be said, Prince Theodore's train of thought had diverged wildly at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion felt somewhat uncomfortable. The way Prince Theodore looked at him was strangely inexplicable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a sense of disharmony devoid of hostility!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This reminded Orion of the information Prince Theodore had offered—Rose Manor. What exactly happened there?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Awooo... Awooo...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the distance, a series of wolf howls rang out. It was the gnoll armies led by Dirtclaw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Dirtclaw had already transformed into his Hellhound form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flames burned upon his body, and his massive frame was in no way inferior to the lizard he battled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Awooo... No being has better teeth than Dirtclaw, except the great Mistress and the great Orion!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damned four-legged reptile, Dirtclaw will end your life!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hellhound radiated a terrifying aura, transforming into a ball of fire as it lunged towards the lizard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the current Dirtclaw hadn't yet reached Alpha peak, he wasn't far off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dirtclaw's strength far surpassed the lizardfolk he fought against.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dirtclaw bit through the lizardfolk's neck, licked its fresh blood, found the crystal core within the corpse, and swallowed it whole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For others, the energy within crystal cores was too violent, but for Dirtclaw in his Hellhound form, he could digest anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Awooo... Woof woof woof... Gnolls, charge!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a very strange sight, wolf howls and dog barks issuing successively from Dirtclaw's throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first sound was a form of deterrence; the second, a command.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Receiving the order, the gnolls abandoned their current prey and pursued the lizardfolk in the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damned younglings, do not test my patience! Abandon the flesh in your mouths and obey Dirtclaw's command!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Those who disobey my orders, I will turn them into corpses, reduce them to dust!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dirtclaw had risen from the cannon fodder troops and participated in countless major battles alongside other Stoneheart Horde armies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dirtclaw knew very well that only disciplined armies possessed greater combat effectiveness and wouldn't miss crucial opportunities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the concept of discipline seemed ineffective when applied to the greedy, gluttonous, and short-sighted gnolls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even after Dirtclaw's brief display of intimidation, gnolls would still lower their heads to gnaw on their prey after killing an enemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was their nature; few gnolls could restrain it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dirtclaw, this is just a warm-up. Let them eat their fill!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A full stomach makes for good work!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Drakthul lifted his blood-stained battleaxe, emerged from the rear, and came to Dirtclaw's side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Compared to the enemies we've encountered, these lizardfolk(lizard) are pathetic!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Resting his axe on the ground, Drakthul gazed at the main force streaming towards the distance like a river. Compared to fighting the fungal creatures, battling these lizardfolk presented absolutely no pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gnolls who don't learn will never amount to anything!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dirtclaw continued to complain about his gnoll armies. This batch of gnolls, compared to the ones sent to the Valkorath Realm, was vastly inferior in both strength and discipline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bro, do you want to ride a Hellhound across the battlefield?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dirtclaw turned his head, a light called temptation flashing in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah... Can I really?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, of course you can! Just give me half your spoils this time, and you can ride until the war ends.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Riding a Hellhound—it must be an incredibly cool moment. Drakthul had long wanted to experience it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief internal struggle, Drakthul leaped onto Dirtclaw's back without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you ready? I'm about to run wild!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Awooo...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dirtclaw threw his head back and howled, then charged off carrying Drakthul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wherever Dirtclaw passed, he kicked up enormous gusts of air, affecting not only beasts and lizardfolk but also the cavalry armies brought by Prince Theodore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beast-blood mounts ridden by the human knights only gradually calmed down after Dirtclaw had run far into the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Giant King Orion, your subordinates are all fierce warriors and valiant generals.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion nodded with a smile; he knew Prince Theodore was referring to Dirtclaw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dirtclaw, having returned from the Valkorath Realm, was among the top tier of Alpha-level beings in the entire Stoneheart Horde.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Excluding Gustalon, likely no one could reliably defeat Dirtclaw; even Onyx wasn't certain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That fellow's nature is a bit wild. He gets very excited and fierce on the battlefield. We have the dragons to thank for his growth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the mention of dragons, Prince Theodore grew curious and asked about Dirtclaw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion didn't mind talking and briefly explained how Dirtclaw's bloodline evolved in the dragon colosseum, leaving Prince Theodore amazed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So it's a Hellhound! That gnoll's bloodline evolved, no wonder!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was idle conversation. Since Ssorin hadn't appeared, Orion, Aldous, and Prince Theodore strolled through the battlefield, following the invading forces towards the center of the lizardfolk territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after seven days did the figures of Lokiviria and Ssorin finally appear before the trio.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the distance, a mixed force of lizardfolk and insectoids brought the invading armies of the Stoneheart Horde, the Human Kingdom, and the Ogre race to a halt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord Orion, this time it was just a misunderstanding. We are willing to cede a portion of territory as compensation to the three of you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lokiviria's voice carried from afar. Orion, Aldous, and Prince Theodore exchanged a glance, then flew out in unison, appearing in mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing Lokiviria and Ssorin from a distance, Orion's terrifying aura caused the faces of the former two to change drastically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Legendary level peak!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's over!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flee!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This thought flashed through the minds of Lokiviria and Ssorin, but they didn't immediately turn and flee because Orion hadn't spoken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion's face was calm, remaining silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn't the main protagonist in this war; the protagonist was the ogre Aldous beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damned Lokiviria! What did you say back then? You broke your promise!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After this war, we are no longer allies!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now, let me tell you, in the eyes of ogres, if you're not an ally, you're an enemy!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1087,"2026-05-29T15:49:28.191Z","2026-06-01T04:29:39.741Z",1,"novelbin.me","82bcdfc0ba57a37ecd6c09fae309dd0737f49576b61aafeefd3e620e06991485","titan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-chapter-581","titan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-chapter-579",1606,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftitan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-cover.jpg"]
