The Author's POV

Chapter 620

"…It's been a while since we've last seen each other, I hope you haven't forgotten about me, Silug?"

I stood face to face with Silug in front of the castle's central square, which had an opening above that allowed one to glimpse the sky above.

Six years.

That was how much time had passed since we had last met each other.

Staring deeply into Silug's eyes, I started to reminisce about the time we met.

Back then, I was only at around or rank at the time. Silug was an existence that I could only look up to in those times.

I used to envy his strength.

Now…

Standing right in front of him and meeting his gaze, I felt his previous impression inside of my mind crumble.

He seemed less intimidating and impressive than he had in the past, which may have been due to the fact that I had to deal with more formidable opponents in the years that followed my trip to Immorra or simply because my strength had grown to the point where there were only a few people in the world that could pose a threat to me .

Regardless, that didn't matter to me at the moment. I had a goal to accomplish.

"I have not forgotten about you, human."

Silug's low and deep voice echoed. The surroundings shook ever so slightly at the tone of his voice

I nodded my head slightly when I heard his words.

Taking a glimpse at my surroundings and seeing the central square sorrounded by several orcs, I mentioned.

"So you still remember that you're working for me, right?"

The atmosphere froze over as soon as my words resounded in the air.

The orcs that were standing by the side all released their auras.

"How dare you?!"

"Who are you to speak to our chief like that?"

I ignored the enraged roads coming from the orcs and kept my gaze on Silug. My expression was extremely serious.

The tensions in the space rose to an all time high. It then all came crashing down when one of the orcs rushed toward me.

The charging orc was stopped in his tracks when Silug reached out his hand in his direction. The surroundings trembled as his thunderous voice reverberated throughout the area.

"Stop!"

'He has indeed improved.'

Taking note of the power hidden behind the voice, I silently praised.

Nonetheless, I knew that this was just a cheap trick used by him to intimidate me.

"Chief?"

The orc, and the ones around us looked at Silug with questionable looks.

Silug glanced at them for a short moment before focusing his attention back on me.

"I remember our deal."

"…Well isn't that great."

I clapped my hands.

Only to stop when I heard Silug speak once more.
