Chapter 356 Causing trouble

After I came back from the bathroom, I found that the mood of the banquet was a bit strange.
It was no longer as lively as before.
It was almost as if something had happened while I was gone that I didn’t know about.
So I went over to find Haley and the others to find out what had happened while I was gone, but before I could…there was someone else who found me first.
This was a dwarf, but this was a dwarf that I had never met before.
However, the moment that this dwarf saw me, he immediately came right at me.
With the determined look that he had as he headed towards me, it seemed like he was on some kind of mission.
I knew that this wasn’t going to be good.
At the same time, I could tell by the way that the other dwarves looked at this dwarf that he was most likely the reason why the mood of the banquet had changed.
After coming over to me, that dwarf looked at me with narrowed eyes before saying, “So you’re the famous human?”
I looked back at him with a calm look as I gave a shrug and said, “I wouldn’t say that I’m that famous. I’m just a normal human.”
The dwarf gave a snort when he heard this before turning his head away as if he was displeased with what I had just said.
I knew that he was here to cause trouble, but I didn’t want trouble with him.
So I said, “I’m sorry, I have some other matters to handle. It was nice meeting you, I hope we have the chance to talk again next time.”
This was all polite talk and naturally I didn’t mean it at all.
As soon as I said this, I turned around to leave, but…
That dwarf suddenly reached out to grab my hand and prevented me from leaving.
I could have easily thrown his hand off, but I couldn’t do it with everyone looking at us like this.
If I did, it would have surely hurt our relationship with the dwarves.
So I had no choice but to turn around and ask, “Is there something else that I can help you with?”
This dwarf just looked at me with narrowed eyes again before saying, “I’ve heard that you had a forging duel with his majesty and you won.”
The moment that he said this, all of the dwarves looked at me with strange looks.
I could tell from the moment that these strange looks fell on me that they didn’t know about this before.
It seemed like none of the dwarves other than the ones that had witnessed it had learned of this matter.
So how did this dwarf know about this?
He clearly was not a dwarf that I recognized…so he shouldn’t have been at the forging duel.
Just who was this dwarf?
Still, those questions were for later.
Right now, I have to take care of this situation.
With another cough, I said, “I just compared notes with his majesty, I wouldn’t say that there was a winner or a loser.”
The dwarf knitted his brows the moment that he heard this. I could see that there was a trace of anger that appeared in his eyes in response to this answer.
He then gave another snort before saying, “You humans and your sly way of words. Do you really think that we can’t see through them? You think you can look down on us because you know some fancy words?”
I knitted my brows when I heard this.
Judging by the way that he was reacting, it was clear that this would be leading up to a fight.
However, that was the last thing that I wanted.
So I said, “How about we calm down first. If there’s any place where I’ve offended you, I can apologize. There’s no need to let ourselves get too emotional.”
The dwarf’s expression turned even darker when he heard this and he raised his fist as if he was about to punch me.
I also prepared myself just in case anything happened, but nothing happened.
That was because before he could punch me, there was a female dwarf that suddenly ran over to grab this dwarf’s arm.
I was also surprised since I recognized this female dwarf.
It was hard not to recognize her when she had a very distinctive feature…which was her body.
This was the curvy female dwarf that I had met before.
After grabbing this dwarf’s arm, she said, “Drogath, what are you doing?”
The dwarf she called Drogath immediately knitted his brows as he turned to look at her. Then with a flick of his arm, he threw her away from him.
After pushing her away like this, he said, “Woman, who told you to interfere? Do you think that an inferior woman like you can interfere in men’s matters?”
I once again knitted my brows after hearing this.
This dwarf named Drogath, it seemed that he wasn’t just racist against humans, but also a misogynist.
He was the mix of the worst kinds of people, someone that everyone clearly hated.
I really couldn’t understand why he was allowed in this banquet in the first place.
After all, anyone should have been able to figure out that he would have caused trouble at this banquet. So why would they allow him to attend in the first place?
The female dwarf didn’t mind what Drogath said to her and said back, “This human’s different, he’s not like them. He was kind enough to show me the way back to the banquet hall earlier.”
Drogath’s face twisted when he heard this.
Then he roared out, “You sl*t, you just cling to whoever you want, don’t you? Now you’re even getting chummy with humans? I really need to teach you a lesson!”
As soon as his voice fell, his hand came up as if he was about to slap her.
