Titan King: Ascension of the Giant-Chapter 407 Who can truly see the future?
The group traveled slowly, taking over a month to return to Stoneheart City, riding on flying beasts.
Stoneheart City had undergone a complete transformation over the past three months. The outer city walls were fully constructed, and the buildings in the inner city had been largely renovated. A majestic, imposing city now greeted their eyes.
The area around the city gate, frequently traversed by people, had been compressed into a solid path.
After jumping off the thunderhawk, Orion immediately embraced Delilah, who was waiting on the wall.
Delilah, playful and charming, bit Orion's shoulder teasingly, then whispered in his ear in an alluring voice, "I'll be waiting for you in Palace 1 tonight."
Orion, hearing her words, gave her a playful tap on her seductive backside before setting her down.
"We signed the Five-Race Alliance contract with the dragons, and also had battles with the Sea Tribe, bringing back plenty of rare supplies."
"The items are with Elder Drakthul, make sure to organize them by category."
Delilah nodded, glancing at Rendall and Drakthul, but then froze.
"Dirtclaw, Gronthar, you both reached Alpha-level?"
Before anyone could speak, Dirtclaw had already thrown himself at Delilah's feet, kissing her shoes fervently, while speaking in a tone of utmost reverence.
"My esteemed mistress, the noble Succubus Queen, Elder of Stewardship, and Lord Orion's beloved, your humble slave has been reborn from the ashes in a gladiatorial battle and successfully advanced to Alpha-level."
Delilah smiled, clearly pleased with Dirtclaw's words, especially the reference to "Lord Orion's beloved," which struck a chord deep within her.
"Get up, Dirtclaw. You're a Warden now, you don't need to act so humbly in front of me. It's not good for your reputation."
Dirtclaw stood up, pride now visible on his face.
Since Dirtclaw became Delilah's slave, she hadn't treated him poorly. She hadn't sent him to do suicidal tasks and, on the contrary, had treated him, his family, and his people with great care and respect.
This was why Dirtclaw held Delilah in such high esteem.
"Thank you, Elders, for your hard work. I'll have the logistics prepare enough food, drink, and fruits for you all."
"Of course, if you need female slaves to serve you, you can come to me to adopt some."
Delilah's words caused the guards who had accompanied Orion on his visit to the dragons to stir with excitement.
However, once they descended from the wall, everyone scattered to return home and tend to their families.
In the castle, inside a bedroom, the Fox Tribe's old elder, holding Sylvana's hand, led her back into her room.
"Seer, you're finally back. The tribe has been worried about your safety."
Sylvana gently reassured the old elder, "There's no need to worry. L... Orion has been protecting me along the way."
Sylvana almost said "Lord Orion" but stopped herself. She remembered how, having become Orion's woman, she had learned all kinds of intimate techniques at his request and had grown more and more decadent.
Finally, she simply said Orion's name, feeling a sense of relief wash over her as she did so.
"This is where Sylvana belongs. Stoneheart City is also the haven for our Fox Tribe and the Beastfolk(beastmen)."
The old elder of the Fox Tribe paused for a moment, then sighed deeply.
"Seer, will the prophecy ever change?"
Sylvana shook her head as she walked into her bedroom, speaking casually, "Fate is always hard to decipher. Who can truly see the future?"
"I've seen one possible future, and it's beautiful. It has strengthened my heart and my faith."
The Fox Tribe's old elder looked at Sylvana's profile, bathed in sunlight that poured through the window, illuminating her form in a beautiful, almost holy light.
Meanwhile, in the castle, Orion withdrew his symbolic pressure and calmly sat on the throne, waiting for the various project leaders of the Horde to report.
The appearance of this pressure signaled to the members of the Horde that Orion had returned.
Soon, Gustalon, Thundar, and Delilah entered the palace one after another.

"Gustalon, how is the territory of the Blood Elves?"
"Lord, we have taken control of the territory and built some small fortresses there. We've already stationed troops there."
"What have you gained?"
"My lord, other than the Beast and Beastfolk, there are no other races. The Blood Elves have relocated them all."
Orion nodded and took out a ring embedded with a mysterious gemstone from his storage ring, tossing it to Gustalon.
"This ring is a reward for you. Don't wander too far; I'll need you for something soon."
Gustalon eagerly took the ring, carefully examining it.
Soon, an expression of surprise appeared on his face.
"Wow, is this really a reward for me?"
Orion nodded without explanation.
The ring was a piece of hero-level auxiliary equipment that would enhance Gustalon's windblade attack power. It was a rare item.
Orion's caution about Gustalon not wandering too far was because he planned to take him to the Valkorath Realm.
"Thundar, what about the Orc territory?"
Thundar stood up and, after organizing his thoughts, spoke slowly.
"My lord, we've cleared the Orc territory, and we've built fortresses at some of the major border areas. Bloodline warriors are constantly patrolling and guarding the boundaries."
"Some Orcs left the territory before we even arrived."
"This time, we captured over 250K Orcs, but most of them were the elderly, weak, or sick."
The fragmentation of the Orcs was something Orion had anticipated.
Some Orcs had their own beliefs and only followed Orc leadership. Since Stoneheart Horde had taken control of their territory, they were forced to flee and find new homes elsewhere.
This was actually a good thing, as the troublesome Orcs had left, leaving behind those who were more obedient.
"250,000 Orcs..." Orion muttered as he leaned back in his throne, considering his options.
The current Orc territory, with its sparse population and vast land, was a great opportunity for development.

Orion pondered, while the others remained silent, not daring to interrupt.
Gustalon continued to admire the ring, unable to stop examining it.
Thundar stood in the center of the palace, quietly awaiting Orion's orders.
Delilah, standing nearby, seemed lost in thought, contemplating something of her own.
