Chapter 1027: Mobbed



Once we were out of the village, Shaka immediately demonstrated his abilities.

Based on what the children had said, we went to the place where Zaag, the giant child had snuck out of the village. It was a hole in the makeshift wall of the village, which was big enough for a child to sneak out of.

From that place, he was able to find all kinds of tracks that led that way for us.

Only we could only go as fast as Shaka could find these tracks.

Without the tracks, we wouldn't know which way to go after all, so we could only wait for him to find the tracks.

At least it was a bit faster than wandering around aimlessly.

As we headed deeper into the forest, Alidus slowly began to knit his brows as if something was wrong.

"What is it?" I asked him after seeing him reveal this expression for a while.

Alidus slowly turned to look at me and there was a look that appeared on his face as if he was hesitant to speak. But after looking at me for a bit, he said, "This isn't the way to the flower fields. It seems like he's gone off course since he's never been out of the village on his own before..."

His voice trailed off at the end and I knew that there was something else that he wasn't telling

me.

"What is it?" Without any hesitation, I asked this question.

Alidus looked at me with a bitter smile on his face before saying, "The place that he's gone off course to is a dangerous place even for us. It seems like this will be much more dangerous than we thought."

As he said this, the way that he looked at me was starting to change.

The way that he looked at me was completely different from the ways that he looked at me before.

It was as if he didn't want me to be here.

The giants all paid close attention to how Shaka would answer this question.

After all, they were clearly afraid of something that seemed to be in this area, so they cared about this very much.

Shaka just shook his head before saying, "I've only found the tracks of the child, there aren't any other tracks in the surrounding area."

The giants let out sighs of relief, but they didn't let their guards down.

Alidus just said, "Go up in the air and provide air support if necessary. We'll go and comfort the child and bring him back with us."

This seemed like the best plan, so I just nodded and then flew into the air with Klein and Shaka.

As we flew there in the air, we watched as Alidus and the other giants moved forward.

Before they found the child, we saw him first.

He was curled up at the bottom of a tree with his head in between his legs.

It seemed that he was completely terrified with the way that he was just sitting there.

We watched as Alidus' group made their way over to the child sitting under the tree and it didn't seem like anything was going to happen.

That was until there was a loud rustling sound that came from the surrounding area.

It was loud because there were several different bushes that suddenly started to shake at the same time.

It was clear that it wasn't just one thing that was there.

It seemed that whatever was out there had been waiting the entire time, using the giant child

as bait.

In an instant, Alidus' group was completely surrounded.
