If she couldn't even be guaranteed safety within the Human Kingdom, under her brother's protection, it was a situation that brought utter hopelessness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion landed in the backyard of Rose Manor, where Ava was currently strolling with her son.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion didn't speak but made a grabbing motion with his large hand. A suction force formed, pulling the child from Ava's arms towards him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was his bloodline; Orion could sense it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you doing here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beneath the facade of despair was coldness and stubbornness. Ava, expressionless, coldly questioned Orion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Orion paid her no heed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The best way to throw someone into self-confusion was to ignore them, pay them no mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, Ava was being ignored by Orion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion lifted his palm, holding the giant youngling who was looking up at him curiously with wide eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps due to the blood connection, the giant youngling didn't cry or fuss, but instead stretched languidly and yawned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is my bloodline. His future lies in the Stoneheart Horde!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion held his son aloft; the feeling of their blood connection brought a special kind of joy to his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have given him a name: Kronos Stoneheart!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion shouted it out, the sound shaking the land for miles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He's mine!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please, I beg you, don't take him away!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ava's pleading voice rang out. Just moments ago, she had already figured it out: Orion being able to reach the depths of the Human Kingdom meant it had been tacitly permitted by the kingdom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ava seemed to have realized her fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her expression revealed begging and sorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion looked down, gazing at Ava kneeling on the ground, clutching his trouser leg. The inexplicable emotion in his heart softened slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion looked up at his son in his hands, then down again at Ava, whose face was streaked with tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Orion felt somewhat conflicted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I give you two choices!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long pause, Orion's deep voice sounded, presenting Ava with two options.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"First choice: you take Kronos and follow me back to the Stoneheart Horde.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Second choice: I take Kronos, you stay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion's tone allowed no room for doubt. His bloodline could not remain outside, be bullied, be treated with indifference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, I won't choose!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kronos is mine! He's my child! Please, I beg you, let me go!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Teary-eyed, pitifully appealing—this was Ava's state at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion raised an eyebrow, about to refuse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, just then, a spatial ripple occurred. King Harold stepped out from the void, sighing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Giant King Orion, the child is Ava's hope for living. Do you intend to strip her of that hope?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you want a mother to lose her child right after giving birth?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you want them, mother and son, to be separated like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you want two people who are closest kin to be left lonely and helpless?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>King Harold, having teleported to Rose Manor, showed no anger. He reached out to help Ava up, his face full of affection and apology.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother, I won't go to the giant territory! I won't go!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>King Harold nodded, wiped the tears from Ava's face, then turned to look at Orion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The harm the Stoneheart Horde inflicted upon Ava was immense. Giant King, please do not force the unwilling.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion stared at the king of the Human Kingdom. This was their first meeting. The latter possessed a dignity that wasn't lacking in warmth, handled matters with composure, as if capable of resolving anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a true king, qualified for an equal dialogue with Orion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kronos stays in the Human Kingdom. I guarantee his safety.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After he comes of age, I will not interfere. Kronos himself will decide whether to stay or leave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Giant King, what do you think?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regardless, King Harold would not let Orion take Kronos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Privately, this was Ava's son, his nephew; Kronos also carried half of their family's bloodline within him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, King Harold would not permit Ava and Kronos to suffer cold stares and bullying within the Stoneheart Horde.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Publicly, the upper echelons of the Human Kingdom all hoped to use Kronos to deepen ties with the Stoneheart Horde.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the future, if possible, they might even directly support Kronos in establishing his own power base within the Stoneheart Horde.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Kronos grew up in the Human Kingdom, he would certainly develop feelings for it and form many bonds during his upbringing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion stared intently at Harold, who met his gaze directly without flinching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Orion, can you guarantee that Ava and Kronos will not suffer a single grievance in the Stoneheart Horde?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I trust the Giant King's prestige and methods, but I do not trust others.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harold had laid his cards on the table, and Orion understood his meaning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Setting aside the Succubus race, the factions behind Soraya, Kitsune Sylvana, and Lysinthia alone would not be friendly towards Kronos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, Lilith was also about to give birth; at such a sensitive time, the Succubus race would be highly alert.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion fell silent!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to admit that the two choices he had just given Ava were indeed somewhat domineering, somewhat ill-considered, and made without careful thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the backyard, Orion held the child, King Harold supported Ava, and the three stood facing each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An unknown amount of time passed before Orion slowly handed the child back into Ava's arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, Orion secretly left a will projection within Kronos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After Kronos comes of age, whoever restricts his freedom, I will execute.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion's Legendary level peak power erupted violently, targeting only King Harold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under this ferocious pressure, King Harold swayed precariously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after a soft golden light emanated from the crown atop Harold's head, he immediately returned to normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion knew when to stop; he withdrew his pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within his perception, several Legendary level auras had already appeared nearby, one of which felt familiar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, the upper echelons of the Human Kingdom had made preparations; if necessary, they would forcibly keep Kronos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion slowly exhaled, his gaze falling upon Ava, then upon Kronos in her arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will watch over him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If any problems arise, or if I feel anything is amiss, I will take Kronos back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No one can stop me, not even your Saint.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With these words, Orion transformed into lightning and, after a clap of thunder, departed from Rose Manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the distance, a large explosion suddenly occurred. A figure was knocked back, its face extremely unsightly.\u003C\u002Fp>",1133,"2026-05-29T15:49:28.191Z","2026-06-01T04:29:39.741Z",1,"novelbin.me","7ce7cc7dbb2a983e657d10240c9297042d80d406dcd84877e2d1e78aa75ca392","titan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-chapter-587","titan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-chapter-585",1606,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftitan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-cover.jpg"]
