"So what you're saying is that the Primordial Expanse has combined with other races now that our protection period has ended?"
Alex asked this question, even though he mentally already knew the answer.
He suspected it would be the case after the human race's first encounter with the Red Demon race, and the ending of the protection period, but now that he was actually living that situation himself, it became much more surreal.
But what confused him though, was how the different races in the Primordial Expanse weren't frantically killing each other like the ones in the outside universe do.
He naturally voiced this concern to Rothwind, who had quite a different reaction than he expected.
"Bahahahha!"
Rothwind let out a deep, hearty laugh at Alex's question, the sound reverberating through the small, soot filled smithy.
It was the kind of laugh that made Alex's brow furrow in confusion, especially since he didn't mean it as a joke.
