[Ace POV]
"The ogre army you saw today was just part of the numbers I witnessed that day."
What?
Understanding the implications behind the emperor's words, I was starting to realise how serious this situation was.
From what I observed today, it was clear that ogres were significantly stronger than humans in almost every way. Even when comparing individuals of the same level, ogres seemed to surpass humans in their base attributes.
The fact that the emperor was going to war against these beings made it even more troubling.
To make matters worse, they had a formidable leader who prevented the emperor from eliminating the entire race single-handedly.
This presented numerous problems because not only did the ogres willingly engage in battle with the emperor, indicating their determination to see it through, but their attacks couldn't simply be explained by a desire for more territory.
