Chapter 1036: Giant market
Chapter 1036: Giant market
Three days later, we followed a group of giants into the forest.
Today was the day that the giant tribes of the surrounding area would be hosting their big market.
This was the place where the giants traded with each other, but also socialized and shared news about the different tribes. This was the place where we would be able to meet the giants from all the different tribes.
There was no doubt that there would be a lot of giants in this place.
That was why my group looked worried.
Even though they had gotten used to life in the Harakka Tribe, they couldn’t help feeling nervous now that we were heading to the giant market.
This was a place that was on a completely different scale from the Harakka Tribe.
It would have at least five times the number of giants that had been at the Harakka Tribe. After all, this market was a gathering of over twenty different tribes that were in the area.
Though according to Alidus, it seemed that most of the tribes were smaller than the Harakka Tribe.
It seemed that the Harakka Tribe was one of the biggest tribes in the area and there were only a few tribes that could match them.
Of course, it was unknown if this was just bragging on his part or if this was an accurate judgement of the surrounding tribes, but that didn’t really matter. The only thing that really mattered was building a relationship with those tribes and convincing them to trade with us humans.
With that relationship, we would be able to develop a peace between humans and giants. Only it seemed like it would be hard with how nervous my group was.
“Is there a need to be this nervous? We’re just meeting a few more giants.” I asked them in a sincere voice.
“A few more?” Shaka and Klein, who were closest to me, repeated in skeptical voices.
I simply gave a nod in response.
The two of them just looked at me in silence for a bit before shaking their heads and giving sighs.
“You’re the only one that can think like that.” Shaka said after shaking his head for a bit. Klein gave a nod in agreement.
I didn’t really like the way that the two of them said this, but there also wasn’t a way for me to refute it since I had to admit that they were right. I was the only one that had extra knowledge of this world, so the things that I did were anything but normal.
As for the other members of our group, it seemed that they didn’t even hear what I had said.
They all seemed like they were focusing on something, as if they were preparing themselves for the fight of their lives.
When they were like this, my attempt at trying to calm them down didn’t work at all.
So all I could do was give a sigh and go back to petting Terry, the Great Wolf cub that I brought with me.
The other Great Wolf cubs were being taken care of back at the giant tribe by a few members of our group. Those few members of our group had looked like they had won the lottery by being chosen to stay at the Harakka Tribe.
Even the ones that came with us looked at them with envy, even if they still followed me in the end.
As for why Terry followed me along…
Terry was the one that we watch be thrown into the hole, the one that I had subdued first. Perhaps it was because I was the one that showed up right after his mother abandoned him that he formed some kind of special connection with me. It seemed that he wasn’t willing to leave my side at all.
Not that I minded since he was quite comfortable to lean against.
The soft fur of the Great Wolves really was a special kind of luxury.
It wasn’t something that could be enjoyed that easily since Great Wolves were hard to hunt. Only by taming a Great Wolf like this would one be able to enjoy the feeling of the Great Wolf fur.
After patting him on the head a bit, Terry gave a soft trilling sound as if he was enjoying it.
Like this, we continued following the giants until Alidus suddenly stopped.
We didn’t need to ask why he had suddenly stopped like this since we could hear the sounds coming from in front of us.
“I got some fine quality fur for trade here!”
“Clubs for sale! Quality clubs made from the finest wood!”
“We have hair accessories carved from the softest bone, it’ll make you look gorgeous in the eyes of your lover!”
The sounds of people trying to sell their goods came from in front of us. Adding in the fact that giants had loud voices in the first place, these sounds seemed to boom through the air.
If one wasn’t prepared, they certainly would have been caught off guard by these voices. They were so loud that one might have even thought that they were being attacked rather than being sold things.
The voices were loud enough to wake up the other members of our group who had been in a daze just now.
But that didn’t mean that they were any less nervous because of this.
They looked even more nervous when they realized that they were about to face all of the giants at the giant market.
However, they also quickly revealed calm looks on their faces.
As expected of the royal guards and the helpers trained by the prime minister.
They certainly were on a completely different level.
Alidus had waited a bit, but when he saw that all of us were ready, he pushed aside the brush
that was in front of us and revealed the scene of the giant market in front of us.
Only before we could enjoy it, there was a voice that said, “If it isn’t little Alidus!”
