Chapter 1037: Korin Tribe
We all turned in the direction that voice came from.
Standing there was another group of giants and the one leading them was a giant who seemed to be a bit chubby with a smug smile on his face. The way that he looked over here was as if he felt superior towards our group.
As for the one that his attention was on, naturally that was Alidus.
I could see Alidus slightly knit his brows when he saw this group, but then he acted as if he couldn't see that person at all.
He just turned around and waved at us as he said, "Come, let's go in and see if we can find you a spot to set up your stall."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Though he was ignoring them, the slightly chubby giant didn't seem to mind this at all based on the expression on his face. Though when it came to his actions, that spoke differently as he moved forward with his group to block our group.
They moved forward so that they were standing right in front of us, as if they wouldn't let us pass.
As he stood there, the slightly chubby giant said, "Little Alidus, you'll make us sad if you ignore your old friends like this."
He spoke as if he was friends with Alidus, but it was clear by the tone of his voice that they were anything but that. It seemed like this slightly chubby giant came from a tribe that seemed to have some kind of antagonistic relationship with the Harakka Tribe.
Once again, Alidus acted like he didn't hear this slightly chubby giant at all.
The slightly chubby giant seemed to be about to say something when his eyes suddenly turned to us.
There seemed to be some people that nodded in agreement in the crowd that had gathered because of the commotion, but most of the giants that had gathered seemed curious about what was happening.
It seemed that anti-human sentiment did run deep in the giant race, but it also seemed that it wasn't a sentiment that was shared by the entire giant race. It seemed that there were only certain giants that felt this way towards humans.
While it was impossible to guess why they felt this way, it was still a fact that they didn't feel kindly towards humans.
This would certainly be detrimental to our cause, but at least it seemed that those with bad feelings towards humans made up the minority. As long as they weren't the majority, then there was still some breathing room.
Alidus didn't seem to flinch at all in front of the slightly chubby giant's accusatory words at all.
He just looked right back at him with a calm and serious look as he simply said, "These are friends of our Harakka Tribe. If you go against them, then you go against us."
It seemed that he wouldn't back down in this matter no matter what the slightly chubby giant would say.
The slightly chubby giant could also see this, so he decided to change his tactic.
Instead of threatening Alidus, the slightly chubby giant turned to look at me.
It seemed like he could tell that I was the leader of the human group since I was on the wyvern that was at the head of this group.
He narrowed his eyes to look at me as if he was judging me before suddenly saying in a threatening voice, "Human, do you think that this is a place for you? This is the land of our giant race and you are nothing more than an intruder. If you don't leave now, you will regret this."
I just looked right at him with the same calm look that Alidus had before saying, "We are here because we were invited by our friends, the Harakka Tribe. It doesn't matter what you say, we will stand by our friends."
The slightly chubby giant looked at me with a taken aback look while Alidus looked at me with a slightly touched look.
