Adventures Of A Goblin-Chapter 246 Pledging His Loyalty

They got to the entrance of the cave, and Orun went out of it, leaving Theron and the Troll Chief behind to take cover in the cave while staring at the shadow of the sun on the ground outside the cave.

"you can come out now".

Orun turned to where Theron and the Troll Chief stood at, Inside the shades of the cave where the sun wasn't touching.

He signaled for Theron to come out of the shadows and into the light, to see if his hypothesis about the Trolls will work or not.

Theron inhaled heavily before taking his first step past the cave's door path leading into the light that has rejected he and his kind for as long as they can remember.

He took a step that could either signify the end of his life or bring about new changes for he and his race alike.

Theron's first step into the sunlight with his leg making contact with it, did nothing to affect his body or show any signs of physical discomfort on his leg that is being showered by the sun. 𝘧𝗿𝚎e𝓌𝗲𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵ𝗲𝒍. c𝐨𝗺

He took the second step, a step that fully brought his whole body out of the cave and into the sunlight, basking himself in it with no signs of being harmed or his body turning to stone from being exposed to the sunlight.

The Troll Chief from the edge of the entrance, watched the courageous Theron sacrifice his life so that his specie can have the joy of looking up and seeing not a dark earth made roof, but a real roof provided for by the sky where the sun and the moon makes their appearance.

The expression on Theron changed when he saw himself not burning in the presence of the sun.

He ran further out, away from the cave's extrance and with enthusiasm, stormed into the sun with both his hands stretched out and his face raised up in the sky.

For the first time in Theron's life, he is able to see how bright the sun shines in the day, and the illumination of light that it brings to the surroundings with its brightness.

He saw the white clouds and not the dark one's he is used to seeing during night time.

A cloud surrounded by the sun with the puffy white on it bringing out all sorts of imaginations drawn on it.

Theron gazed upon it well with all his eyes opened toward it, admiring the comfort that washes over his skin.

A captivating sight that he never wants to take his eyes off of for even a minute.

This was a moment in Theron's life that he would never forget no matter what circumstances he finds himself in the future.

He, is the first Troll in the monster specie, the first Troll specie to confidently gaze at the sun without fear of getting turned to stone by its effect.

He took the first step to overcoming the fear that has overwhelmed and troubled his Troll ancestors for many years.

Theron turned his body and faced Orun who was looking at him all the while he was celebrating his moment in the sun.

He made his way toward Orun with an intimidating movement that had his step leaving behind his footprints on where he stepped on.

He got closer to him, and did something that caught Orun and the Troll Chief by surprise.

Theron went on his two knees before Orun, and bowed his head to the ground, making sure that his forehead kissed the ground.

"I belong to the Troll kind who have been granted a name by the almighty, now known as Theron".

Theron had his head raised back up with his knees still stuck to the ground as he talks to Orun with a loud voice.

"i hereby pledge my undying loyalty and fealty to my one true king who was kind enough to end the misery of my kind. My king, would you be so willing as to accept this useless warrior as one of your many aids".

Theron as he announced for Orun to accept him, had his right hand stretched out. He brought the palm close to his mouth and bit a part of it to have blood slowly flowing out from it in small quantity.

When he saw the blood come out from his hand, Theron stretched out the palm back to Orun and had his head bent down before him.

His head was bent slightly below Orun's face with his palm raised above his bent position, like someone extending an offering in a kneeling position and with respect imbued in it.

Orun was really taken aback by Theron's action of bowing before him and announcing his loyalty to him when his chief is right behind him in the cave, with his eyes on him.

No matter how joyful he is about getting to see the sun for the first time, it is still too much for him to act in this manner.

Orun stood there, speechless on Theron's action and what sort of reply should be delivered to him.

"accept it".

The Troll Chief standing at the edge of the entrance, yelled out loud for Orun to hear.

"i too would like to pledge my fealty to you my king".

The Troll Chief, emulated Theron's action and also went on his knee with his bleeding palm stretched out in Orun's direction.

"you are the one who cured our kind of an ailment we thought would continue to torment our future generations to come. You brought an end to that, gave us who had given up hope, a chance to gaze upon the sunlight".

"there is no words that is enough to express our appreciation on this, and not even our lives can be enough as payment for what you have done for us".

"in return, we offer you our lives and commitment to your will, so please, do not deny us of our chance at gratitude for what you have done for us".

Orun really was not expecting any of this to happen, especially not with Theron who had shown to hate him on their first time meeting.

He does not understand what he had given them, the extent of what he has done for them, and the weight he has lifted off of them.

Orun did not understand any of those, but he does know that with this, he is one step closer to creating his monster empire.
