Titan King: Ascension of the Giant

"It's good that you're alright!"

Clymene and Rendall, after checking on Orion, finally let out a sigh of relief. Their worry had been lifted.

Then, their eyes shifted to the pair of rose-colored wings on Lilith's back, surprise evident in their expressions.

Clymene and Rendall exchanged a glance, both feeling even more satisfied with Lilith's presence in the Blackstone Tribe. They now believed more than ever that the marriage alliance between the giants and the succubi had been a wise decision.

"Master… I'm here!"

From behind the group of bloodline warriors, Lysinthia's small voice called out. She couldn't push through the crowd, so she had to shout to get Orion's attention.

Hearing her, Orion parted the group of giants and pulled Lysinthia to the side, where the Twilight Viper lay.

"Can your Twilight Viper be saved?" Orion asked, his voice calm but concerned.

Tears welled up in Lysinthia's eyes, her emotions a mix of sadness and uncertainty.

"Master, the Twilight Viper is gravely injured. I don't know if it will survive… neither does the Twilight."

Orion frowned slightly, his brow furrowing. "Tell me, do you not know, or are you unsure?"

"I… I don't know… I'm not sure…" Lysinthia stammered, realizing her words weren't clear. She quickly added, "The only thing we can do now is freeze the Twilight Viper, force it into hibernation. Maybe it will heal on its own… or maybe…"

Orion understood. The Twilight Viper's fate was uncertain—it could live or die, and there was nothing more they could do but hope.

"Let it hibernate, then."

"Yes, Master!" Lysinthia nodded, wiping her tears. She began gathering snow from the surrounding area to freeze the Twilight Viper.

"You four, help her," Orion ordered, glancing at Dace, Otho, Beyn, and Torba. The four giants immediately moved to assist Lysinthia.

Once the Twilight Viper was properly frozen and put into hibernation, Orion led Lilith and Lysinthia back to the stone wall.

The crisis brought by the Dark Bat Hawk had finally been resolved.

However, Orion had lost the Twilight Viper, and he himself had narrowly escaped death.

Fortunately, the rest of the watch passed without further incident. Orion suspected that the lingering aura of the Dark Bat Hawk and the Twilight Viper had kept other dark creatures at bay.

Half a day later, Orion, Lilith, and Lysinthia returned to their tent. After a hearty meal, Orion and Lilith began making love again. Lysinthia, still feeling down about the Twilight Viper, chose not to join them and instead watched silently from the side.

Orion, with his boundless energy, focused all his attention on Lilith. Despite the succubus's natural ability to handle intense physical activity, Lilith was soon exhausted. Her body trembled, and her voice grew hoarse from moaning as Orion pushed her to her limits.

Three hours later…

Orion held Lilith in his arms, wiping the sweat from his face with one hand while gently stroking her back with the other.

"Where did your wings go?" Orion asked, curious about the wings she had shown earlier.

*Pfft!*

Lilith giggled, her breasts rubbing against Orion's chest as she laughed.

"My dear, those aren't wings. They're Succubus Wings!"

"Oh? Is there a difference? They both let you fly, don't they?"

Lilith giggled again, kissing Orion's chest before propping herself up on her hands to look him in the eyes.

"My Orion, I'm part of the succubus royal family. I don't have physical wings."

"What you saw was a manifestation of my bloodline, a form I can take when I activate my powers."

"And I can't really fly. I can only glide for short distances."

Orion laughed heartily, pulling Lilith closer and lifting her up so they were face to face. He kissed her deeply, their lips locking in another passionate embrace.

After another round of intense lovemaking, Orion's voice finally broke the silence.

"It doesn't matter if you can fly or glide. My Lilith is amazing, and you saved my life."

Lilith beamed with happiness. She could feel that after saving Orion, their bond had deepened. Perhaps, they had even crossed into the realm of true love.

In the past, Orion had viewed his relationships with Lilith and Lysinthia through the lens of dominance, seeing them as women to be conquered. But after today, his perspective on Lilith had changed.

The next morning, Orion woke up feeling refreshed.

Lysinthia was already preparing food, while Lilith lay naked under the furs, still asleep.

"Orion Elder, the chieftain requests your presence!"

A giant warrior arrived outside the tent, delivering the message.

Orion quickly dressed, gave Lysinthia a nod, and left the tent. Chapter Find:

In the chieftain's tent, only Clymene was present.

"Orion, this is for you," Clymene said, placing a bag of Dark Bat Hawk's dark source crystals on the table.

Orion didn't immediately reach for the crystals. Instead, he turned to Clymene, his eyes filled with confusion.

"Don't doubt it, Orion. You were our second choice," Clymene placing a hand on his shoulder, her voice filled with warmth and sincerity.

"Orion, the elders and I all know that your potential surpasses ours."

"The dark source crystals are yours. Once your strength reaches a higher level, then it will be our turn."

"My brother, don't let us down."

Orion stared at Clymene for a long moment before finally reaching out and taking the dark source crystals.

"Even though our parents are missing, I promise you, as long as I'm here, the Blackstone Tribe will never fall."

Clymene smiled, patting Orion's shoulder again before handing him a bowl of hot soup.

"You haven't eaten yet, have you? This is made from the Dark Bat Hawk's meat and bones. Try it."

Orion took the bowl and drank the soup in one go, feeling warmth spread through his body.

"Go on now," Clymene said, dismissing him with a smile.

As Orion left the chieftain's tent, he felt the weight of responsibility settle on his shoulders. He now carried the hopes of the tribe.

When he returned to his own tent, Lilith was awake, dressed in a form-fitting leather armor that hid her seductive figure, giving her an air of dignity.

"Orion, you're back. Is there trouble at the valley entrance again?" Lilith asked.

Orion shook his head, taking the bowl of meat porridge that Lysinthia handed him. As he ate, he explained the situation in Moonshadow Valley.

Before returning to the tent, Orion had taken a walk around the valley, his mood slightly heavy.

"I'm going to train for a while. I'll need to relieve the other elders tonight," Orion said after finishing his meal.

Without hesitation, he pulled out the Dark Bat Hawk's dark source crystal and swallowed it.

Almost immediately, a burning sensation spread from his stomach, and a surge of life energy began to wash over his body.

Orion gritted his teeth, enduring the intense heat as the energy coursed through him, refining and strengthening his body.

Ten minutes later, the sensation faded, and Orion didn't open his eyes right away. Instead, he focused on his status panel.

The dark source crystal he had just consumed was much larger and more potent than the one he had taken before. The process of evolution and body refinement had lasted longer, and the results were clear.

Looking at the increased stats on his panel, Orion couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.
