บท 248: The Dragon Claiming Ritual

There's a reason Ragnar kept Orgath confined. To prevent Orgath from seeking vengeance against Gamaaloth Kingdom for Arnulp's death. That's why there are only two options left for Orgath: someone claims him, or he's left to starve.

Orgath started to appear fresher and healthier after a few days. The process of reclaiming him became increasingly difficult. Each day, Gamaaloth soldiers who tried to reclaim him left the room with more severe injuries.

Sophia continued her daily visits to Orgath, bringing food and attempting to establish a bond with him. However, in recent days, she had refrained from touching her offerings.

Orgath regarded her with a wary gaze, clutching the food tightly, while numerous Gamaaloth soldiers vied to claim him as their mount.

"Orgath, are you eating because you believe I'll release you?" Sophia inquired.

Orgath ceased tearing into his meal and fixed his gaze on Sophia.
