Chapter 1139: Valley of Origin (2)



"Elder Ogrin, what are you doing here?" The guard that represented the others asked this in a slow and shocked voice.

The elderly giant that had been called Elder Ogrin narrowed his eyes and said, "If I wasn't here, would no one see the way that you're treating our honoured guest? Or are you saying that I'm not allowed to be here."

The guards were all shocked hearing this.

They looked at each other as if they were trying to figure out what was happening, but it didn't seem like anyone knew what was happening.

After all, they didn't understand why the elder would be acting this way.

The way that the elder was speaking, it was clear that he was defending this human... But why?

That was the question that was on everyone's minds.

The guards didn't know how to respond when Elder Ogrin confronted them like this, so all they could do was stand there in silence.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Elder Ogrin just looked at them for a bit before giving a snort and turning to look at me.

I was also surprised by this since I never expected one of the elders to show up to defend me like this.

With the way that the guards treated this person, there was no mistaking it.

This elderly giant was clearly one of the elders that were at the peak of the giant race.

He was one of the elders that had summoned me here.

Only...I was also wondering what he was doing here as well.

It didn't seem to make sense that this elder would suddenly come here and support me like this.

The guards seemed like they still wanted to say something, but Elder Ogrin shut it down by glaring at them.

Like that, I was allowed entry into this Valley of Origin.

"Do you know why this place is called the Valley of Origin?" Elder Ogrin asked as we entered the valley and followed him to where we would be meeting the other giant elders.

I didn't know what he was doing bringing this up, but I shook my head to show that I didn't know.

"This Valley of Origin is said to be where the Origin Giant was born. It was here that our giant race originated, which is why it is the most important place in our entire giant race."

After saying this, Elder Ogrin looked at me with a meaningful look as if he was implying something.

I didn't miss this and I understood why he was saying this.

He was letting me know the importance of this place to the giant race, which would allow me

to understand just how big it was that they were allowing me here to meet the elders.

It was to make me feel touched that they were doing such a thing to me.

It was to make it easier for them to accomplish whatever goal they were trying to accomplish.

After all, when one had good feelings for the other side, it was easier to negotiate. However, I wasn't fooled by this trick.

All it told me was that this Elder Ogrin was quite the sly old fox that he was able to do such a thing without even batting an eyelash.

Old ginger was the spiciest.

That was an idiom that remained true regardless of the world.

After following him and listening to him talk about the Valley of Origin for a bit, we finally arrived at the place where the other elders were.
