"How long?"

"How long has it been since I've seen intelligent beings other than elementals and demons?"

Feeling emotional, Margauk rose from his throne - he had only three eyes - not blind for some reason, but he had only three eyes since he was born, because he was a two-headed ogre.

I don't know if it's because of the atavism or the thin blood relationship with the one-eyed, the two-headed ogre that is occasionally born in ogres tends to have one head with normal eyes and the other with one-eyed.

In terms of relative intelligence, the one-eyed head is significantly lower than the one-eyed head - even so, because the manipulation of the body can be left to the one-eyed head, and even the most ordinary two-headed ogre is comparable to a human magical genius.

As for Margok, he is a genius among geniuses - his one-eyed head is not much less intelligent than a two-eyed head, so while controlling his body, the one-eyed head also participates in Malgok's research on rune spells, and finally explores the powerful power of the last few runes.

As for why he lamented that he hadn't seen anything other than the elements and demons for too long, it was because in this ancient ogre capital, apart from the elements and demons, there was no other creature whose lifespan could accompany him to the distant present!

"A wise moonlight rat, and a lowly human?"

"Oh, a crippled god, perhaps?"

Waving his hand slightly, the ogre wizard kneeling in front of him had retreated respectfully, standing beside the throne, his eyes full of worship and admiration - through the memory left in his mind by the Alpha Mystery Lock - or he was already a member of the Alpha Mystery Lock, and he completely understood the power of the most powerful king in the history of the ogre in front of him, which was not inferior to the power of the gods!

And in the face of the oncoming coercion, Ron's Archmage Rost, who is now a Rost demigod, immediately prepared for battle in secret. The divine power on his body was released without hesitation, and the invisible aura collided with each other, unexpectedly rolling up rotten wood dust around the gate, turning into several small tornadoes that swayed upward.

"Not bad!"

"I was able to counter the momentum I inadvertently revealed!"

With a big stride, Margok, who occupies the pinnacle of the ogre race, has a terrifying majesty, and he crosses the hall that looks huge even in the size of an ogre, and arrives in front of Ron and Rost, and at the same time, the surging momentum swept out of him again, enveloping the demigod Rost!

In Margok's time, humanity was far from being as dominant on the continent of Faeron as it is now - so, even if the ogre wizard who had just bowed down to the throne told him about the current situation of humanity, in Margok's eyes, humans were still slaves of other powerful races - even if they were demigods!

"Humph!"

The inadvertent imposing coercion required Rost to deliberately release his divine power to be able to fight, and when Malgauk only released it on Rost alone, the superiority was immediately manifested - in Rost's muffled snort, the tiny tornado began to move on the ground, and soon moved less than a meter in front of Rost.

Obviously, before the momentum specially released by Margouk, even if Rost had achieved demigodship, he was still at an absolute disadvantage!

But even at an absolute disadvantage, Rost still had a resolute look on his face - he tried to drum up the divine fire so that the tornado would not move towards him.

Still, he changed the shape of his body slightly, protecting Ron beside him and the Nimbala warriors behind him!

Such an action obviously could not escape Margok's eyes, and his coercion continued to increase, making Rost's forehead slowly turn red - normal gods do not sweat, such a performance has shown that Rost has completely tried his best - and neither Ron nor the warriors of Nimbala can help at all in such a disparity of rank!

............

"Good!"

"Very good!"

"You exceeded my expectations!"

Malgok's coercion was endless—Rost felt like he had held out for a century, and would continue to do so—but suddenly, Malgok's coercion vanished, and immediately Rost's suppressed divine power rebounded sharply and slammed down on Malgok's body.

However, Rost's divine power was like a gust of fresh wind to Margok, and he slapped his heavy palm slightly, which had already eliminated Rost's divine power invisibly.

Then, Malgok's two heads looked at each other, nodded slightly to each other, and seemed to make a decision—and then the thick palm of his hand reached out in front of Rost, and the deep voice of the ogre rang in Rost's ears.

"I decide!"

"Teach you the mysteries of rune spells!"

"You don't have to pay anything!"

"Huh?"

Obviously, this sudden message made Rost's brain unable to react at once - only a little confrontation, and the opponent intends to pass on all the knowledge he has learned - is this not a plot that is unique in the middle?

Margauk's words immediately provoked the screams of the ogre wizard standing beside the throne on the other side of the hall, and he fell to his knees and uttered a sad and impassioned admonition.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, rune spells are the top secret of the empire, and you can't teach them to other races!"

"Please think twice about Your Majesty the Emperor!"

"Empire?"

"Is there still an empire?"

"I've had enough of this life - I want to get rid of his !!"

The ogre's admonition caused Malgauk to suddenly explode—a gloom that had been building up in his mind for thousands of years, and only now did he have a chance to radiate it—and he frantically swung his staff, firing countless rune-glittering spells into the air until most of his mana was consumed.

Only then did Malgauk come to his senses - he gasped for breath to face Rost.

"Of course, if possible......"

"Can you let the ogres, and I mean the intelligent ones, live better under your protection!"

............

Malgauk was clearly not joking - Ron looked at the two ogres' sincere faces, observed them for a long time, and finally made a decision in his heart - after all, it was enough to fight the gods, and it was indeed a gift that a spellcaster could not refuse!

Moreover, with the rune spell, whether it is the development of Nimballa or the future promotion of Rost, there will be a more powerful bargaining chip!

"I promise you!"

"As long as I can find a place where the ogres can be hidden and let them live, I will protect them!"

"Provided, of course, that they no longer use intelligent beings as food!"
