Chapter 136: In Awe!

... Silence, as if Alex hadn't been prepared for that.
"Asmodea reported that the prior lord person complained that you talked too much; is that accurate?"
... Silence once more, but this time Orcus produced a gesticulation that said 'Kinda' instead of speaking.
"If you don't mind my asking, could you perhaps explain why you're so quiet? With words, hold on... With words that are spoken?" According to Alex, he was successful in thwarting any efforts made by Orcus to prevent any opportunities to avoid using words.
