New World
Titan

The Kingdom of Black Dessert... Just like its name, the Black Dessert Kingdom was a huge desert that stretched so wide in the Midland Continent.

As everyone knows, a desert is a vast expanse of sand. Very few plants can grow and thrive in a place called desert. Because the desert has always been a hot and difficult area to live in. The air temperature during the day will be very hot while at night the air temperature will immediately drop so quickly, even almost touching the point of 0 degrees.

Such extreme geographical conditions make the Black Dessert Kingdom only has 4 cities that can be inhabited by NPCs and players.

It was Niagra City in the north of the Black Dessert Kingdom. The city of Saman, west of the Black Dessert Kingdom. The city of Colips is located to the south of the Black Dessert Kingdom. And the last one was the Capital of the Black Dessert Kingdom named Black Dessert City, which was located right in the middle of the desert.

There were no cities in the eastern part of the Black Dessert Kingdom. The eastern region was ruled by the Titans. It was not that the Black Dessert Kingdom did not want to build a city in the area, but their efforts were always thwarted by the Titans who inhabited the region.

The Titans lived traditionally, they slept only on desert sand, and roofed the sky. Their lives are not settled, they always move to a place that if there are many monsters to be used as a source of food. Their number was not so much, only around 500 people.

Not that their lives are hard with that way of life. They greatly enjoy the way of life that their descendants have lived from their ancestors. For them, freedom is everything. That was why the Titans had always destroyed the City to be built around their territory.

For them, the way of life in a City was troublesome. Must build a house that matches their large body size, plus still have to do care at the place of residence. That's why the Titans prefer to live as they are. They are too lazy and less smart to take care of that kind of thing.

The Titans themselves are a race belonging to a group of giants. The smallest Titan is 3 meters high. And the biggest? Don't ask... It can reach 10 meters of course.

The large size of the body and the way of life that moved, made the eastern Black Dessert Kingdom so haram for Merchants or adventurers to pass through. They all certainly do not want to be victims of the famous Titan's frequent unrestrained.

In the Titan race there is no known term king or queen. The Titans were led by a Titan who bore the title of Lord Titan. The process of selecting leadership is determined by force. So only the strongest Titan Nation has the right to bear the title of Lord Titan.

And for now, the Titan Nation is led by a Titan Lord named Thoren. Thoren became the strongest Titan after defeating Lord Titan, his predecessor, Grundal. Although Thoren's body size is not the largest among the other Titans, Thoren has a special feature. Thoren is the only Titan who can control magic among the other Titans.

Yep... Able to control magic... Thoren was able to control the sand around her body. His physique is strong and large, plus it can control sand. Thoren is feared among the Titans. Even his enemy's enemies are trying to destroy the existence of the Titan Nation, mesthi rethink because of the existence of Thoren.

Having a leader who is so feared does not mean the life of the Titans to be better. During the reign of Thoren, the population of the Titans actually decreased. Not because of a plague or other problems, but because of the frequent attacks of the Titans from the City dwellers in the Black Dessert Kingdom. Whether it was from the Black Dessert Kingdom side aided by the Guilds or from the Temple of Light.

The two sides continued to intensely give attacks to the Titan Nation. The population of the Titans is reduced every time they are attacked.

The movement of the Titans became so limited, not like before. They could no longer continue to move places as they pleased as before. Thoren must think of the safety of his people to mobilize the Titans in great measure. Especially with the large body size, the movement of the Titan Nation can certainly be detected so easily. Thoren as Lord Titan certainly did not want... During his reign, it became the last time the Titan Nation existed in this world.

The limited movement brought its own problems for the Titans, namely the food supply for the Titans. During this time the Titans only rely on hunting monsters to be able to meet the food needs of their race. They always move places to be able to get monster monsters that make the desert as their habitat.

The monsters in the desert were numerous, and they were much larger than the monsters in the forest. But there is one difficulty to be able to find monsters in the desert. Monsters in the desert live in the ground. The Titans needed to traverse a vast territory in order to capture a single monster.

Thoren was forced to send several Titans to find food. Dividing them into several small groups, so that the hunting movement for food for the Titan race is not detected by their enemy.

Of the various groups that Thoren sent, there was one group of Titans consisting of 4 Titans. They are Yunof, Furgol, Dominoc, and Grestal. The leader of the four Titans was Yunof, as he had the most strength and posture among the other four Titans. Among the four Titans, the youngest and weakest is Grestal.

Being the weakest would be a misfortune for Grestal himself, he continued to have a heavy duty to take care of the lives of the four Titans during the hunt. He was asked to bring goods, looking for water to drink during the hunt, even he was also asked to give a massage to his three friends. Making Grestal so tormented when following the hunting process.

Despite the weight, Grestal never complains when doing all that his seniors do. Grestal understands very well, if what he is doing right now is for the survival of the Titan Nation. A nation that raised itself from childhood to be able to grow up as a teenager now.

Grestal is hopeful that the Titans can return to their former ways. Free to wander anywhere they want, without fear of an ambush from the enemy enemy Titan. Even Grestal often fantasized to himself... If he had a power that could not be defeated, he would finish off all the enemies of the Titan Nation alone. And liberate the Titans from the problems that befell them.

But it was only a dream of a Titan teenager. Grestal was born with a body that was not as big and strong as the Titans in general. He also had to accept being a servant of his senior when hunting.

"Grestals... Where's the water I asked for?" Yunof wiped his head which was sweating quite a lot. "Quickly... Why so long?"

Grestal immediately opened the large bag he was carrying, checking the remaining water supply.

"Sorry Yunof... But our water is up... We haven't rested to replenish our water supply..." Grestal hurriedly approached Yunof, explaining to Yunof that the water supply in their group had been exhausted.

"It's stupid... Could be running out of water..." Yunof immediately threw a punch towards Grestal's head, making the juvenile Titan have to fall down with a mouth full of sand.

"Already Yunof... Let the useless child... We better finish this hunt... The sun is almost setting..." Furgol tried to quell Yunof's anger. Although he was also a little emotional because Grestal did not fill a sufficient supply of water for the four of them.

"Basic... Again you act stupid like this... Then I'll make you bait for the sandworm..." Bumpat Yunof while stepping back. If it wasn't for their hunting that hadn't gotten results, and they were being time-hunted. Maybe Yunof will beat Grestal until Grestal can't get up again.

The 20-meter-long worm continued to jump between the sand to the other sand. Trying to escape from the group of 4 Titans who pursue him. Yunof who had the most posture immediately jumped so high, that he finally managed to land in front of the slurry path of the sandworm monster.

Guv...

Guv...

Guv...

Three hits from Yunof's fist was enough for Yunof to subvert the sandworm monster. The sandworm monster whose half body had already entered into the sand was instantly pulled out forcibly by Yunof.

Bruck...

The sandworm monster just threw it in front of Grestal.

"View... Can you do something like that?" A mocking smile Yunof showed Grestal who looked dumbfounded on his own. Shame and disbelief instantly radiated on Grestal's face.

"Let's go home... We got what we wanted..." Once again Furgol tried to put a damper on what Yunof was doing. Although he was also not very fond of Grestal, but seeing Yunof's arrogance also made him fed up.

"Bring it... Make sure you are not left behind... Hahaha" Yunof immediately walked over to lead the group to return to the Titan Nation's hideout. He did not care how Grestal would bring the sandworm almost 10 times the size of his body.

Grestal could not dodge, he was self-conscious of his position. He had to pull the 20-meter-long sandworm alone.

Yet... After ten minutes they walked.

Grp....

Grp....

The sand that became Grestal's footrest suddenly shook violently. Similarly, the sand that was stepped on by his three friends in front.

"What's this?"

"Gaia's angry...."

The three Titans who were several tens of meters apart from Grestal instantly panicked. They are confused by the phenomenon that is happening right now.

Likewise with Grestal, only this time he felt the sand under his feet shaking violently. He immediately hugged the body of the sandworm he had pulled. Assume if the sandworm is a pillar that he can rely on.

The confusion of the three Titans was immediately answered. From under the third foot of the Titan comes sharp teeth. After the sharp teeth came out, the sand that became their footrest was immediately sucked down.

"What's this?" Yunof is panicking. He tried to jump or run away, but the sand under his feet was getting faster into the circle of sand suction.

Boooms...

Grestal rubbed his eyes many times. Trying to make sure what he saw just now was a reality. He had just seen a mouth that could swallow his three friends at once. Grestal wanted to help his three friends, but both of his legs seemed numb. Not wanting to move even to escape from where he was.

Imagine... It's just a mouth... Which could swallow Three Titans as high as 4 meters. What exactly is his body. Grestal could only breathe a sigh of relief, after seeing the mouth that swallowed the three friends disappeared slowly into the sand under his feet.
