"tell me, what part of it are you not comfortable with".
"what are you talking about Orun".
The Wyvern leader asked, not sure what brought about his questioning, and his sudden change of mood.
"is it the part where I am able to see your status, or the half-slavery thing? Is that it? Do you all not trust me enough to understand that I mean you no harm".
His actions and words, showed how disappointed he was with the Wyvern, about the way they view him.
He considers them as family, but it appears they do not feel the same. Even if they do, the trust that comes with it, is not unconditionally stable.
"it is not as easy as you make it out to be Orun. Naming us will indeed make us stronger, but only at the cost of our freedom".
"we are monsters, and we have kept our freedom for hundreds of years. What you are asking of us, is to relinquish that freedom. You should not expect that to be so easy to do".
Orun was angry with the Wyvern leader, but at the same time, he understood their point and where they are coming from.
Not even he was willing to give up his freedom to serve the Goblin king, even at the expense of his life, so why should he have expected them to be any different.
He understood that well, but could not help feeling disappointed about the fact that the Wyverns do not trust him enough.
'Oracle'.
[yes Master].
'is there any way for you to project my status out for the Wyvern pack to see'.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt[yes Master it is possible, but I do not reckon it a good idea].
'I plan on creating an empire Oracle. What good would it do if the foundation to my empire is not trustingly strong enough? The foundation will crumble with a little shake from the outside, thus bringing down the whole empire itself'.
'and I don't want that to be the fate of the empire that is to come'.
[ I understand Master ].
As commanded by Orun, Oracle proceeded to displaying his status for the Wyvern pack to see.
Like a flat seventy-two inch TV screen, his status was brought out, openly with the words boldly written out for the pack to see.

"wh.....wha...!!"
The Wyvern leader and her pack, marveled at the sight of the statue they were beholden with.
It was beyond incomprehensible, and vastly unbelievable to their understanding, even though they can see it.
"this is my status".
The Wyvern leader was rendered speechless, unable to find proper words to address Orun with.
What he had just sprung on her, is far different from the phenomenon she is used to seeing.
Orun's status does not put him in the league of monsters, but rather, it turned him into a myth that should have only been spoken about in words, and remembered in memories, not present in the flesh.
"i did not show you this to brag about myself, or make you all dumbfounded and helpless".
"i showed you my status, because I want to renew the bond between us. I want to strengthen our trust so that it will never be used against us".
"this is who I am, and this is what I have. Even I have yet to grasp the true potential of what my status is capable of, but I am aware of how terrifying the numbers are to show it to just anyone".
His words is a way of telling them that he would not show his status to just anyone, even at the expense of his life.
Making it known to them, that he wants to link his life to theirs, unbiased about revealing to them his capabilities and strength, showing how far his trust on them reaches to.
The Wyvern leader looked at Orun with a gloomy expression, finding her earlier actions to be stupid.
Orun's status, indicates that they are nothing before him, a being who could easily take them all down by just tapping down his leg.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey did not trust him enough to share their status with him, but he did it without so much as hesitating.
"i....i apologize Orun. On behalf of I and my pack, we apologize for not trusting you enough".
She was ashamed of herself at that moment. Them being subservient under Orun, does nothing but bring to them, several meritorious gains.
He is only doing it to help them get stronger, and not to have them under his control.
If that was his intention, he could have done it forcefully, without the need for consulting with them first.
"it is fine. I am cool with it".
Orun was quick to accept the Wyvern leader's apology, realizing where she was coming from, and being able to relate to it.
"i should start thinking up a name for all sixteen of you".
Orun says, already finding it difficult to come up with a name.
"Orun, will you be fine naming all sixteen of us? Our numbers aside, our race is not exactly belonging to the lower realm".
His status is leaps above their imagination, and has become a realm they can only fantasize about, but that could change with Orun granting them a name.
The Wyvern specie, though not in the category of high level monsters, still fall under the middle class monsters, and can be counted as one of the strongest type specie amongst other middle class monsters.
If one were to also put into consideration, the fact that the pack, are at a stage where advancing further down the evolution line has become a difficult task to accomplish.
Orun would need a massive amount of mana just so he can trigger an evolution stage for one Wyvern, while the pack, are sixteen in numbers.
If Orun were to use his mana core on all sixteen Wyverns, with his aim being to trigger their evolution, he would need much more mana than normal to carry it out, and that will in turn, lead to Orun forever losing a part of his mana core, which will be shown on his existential value that will end up drastically decreasing.
To what digits the numbers will stop at, is unknown, and that makes it all the more dangerous for him.
