Chapter 1132: Creating guards
Everyone looked at me with surprised looks when they heard this, but this wasn't the only surprise that they felt from this.
That was because they saw that I took out the Orb of the Dead.
Klein and the others were used to seeing me with the Orb of the Dead, but the same couldn't be said about the giants.
When they saw me with the Orb of the Dead, there were many of them that looked at me with looks of suspicion.
It wasn't hard to guess what they were thinking based on the looks on their faces, but Alidus just raised his hand to stop them from doing anything and gave them a look to tell them to trust me.
There was a moment of hesitation from the giants as they didn't know what to think, but eventually they nodded in agreement and decided to give me the benefit of the doubt.
It wasn't because of what they thought of me, but rather because of their respect for Alidus. It was because they respected him that they decided to go against what their basic instincts were telling them to do.
That just went to show how much respect they had for him.
Though Alidus stood up for me, the way that he looked at me after calming them down made it clear what he was thinking.
He also wanted to know what I was planning to do with this Orb of the Dead.
The Orb of the Dead was not a good thing, but it wasn't a bad thing either. Whether it was used for good or bad depended on the person that it belonged to and used it.
As for what I was planning on using it for.
I looked around the hole that we were in to look at the different bones that were on the ground.
There were many piles of bones that were here which showed that there were many generations of wolf cubs that were abandoned in this place.
Only I felt that I should at least attempt this to see what would happen.
After a moment of silence, the skeletal wolf suddenly ran over to my side.
I was completely caught off guard when it jumped at me and I wasn't able to dodge out of the
way, so the skeletal wolf landed right on top of me.
However, I wasn't afraid of it since I could see that it didn't mean any harm to me.
Rather, it brought its face down as if it was about to lick my face.
The only problem was that it was a skeleton, so it didn't actually have a tongue.
So all that it could do was awkwardly move its face in front of mine, trying to lick me with its non-existent tongue.
Looking at the skeletal wolf for a bit, a faint smile appeared on my face.
Even if there was resentment, the bones belonged to cubs that hadn't matured before they
died. So the personality that this skeleton wolf had was that of a child as well, even though it had the powerful body of an adult.
Holding the Orb of the Dead, I could tell that I was able to control it if I needed to, which was more than enough for me.
I slowly pushed the skeletal wolf back and then stood up to say to the others, "It's fine, it's friendly."
There were still cautious looks on their faces, but seeing the way that the skeletal wolf acted, they at least put down their weapons.
Alidus was the one that asked, "What are you planning to do with this thing? Are you going to attack the Great Wolves?"
I just simply shook my head and said, "Nope, not at all. I have a job for this skeleton wolf."
