Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure-Chapter 1020: First contact

From above, we were able to see exactly what the source of the smoke was.

With how big the giants were, it was easy to see them.

At the same time, it meant that the things that they built were also quite big.

The fire that they lit was already as big as a house and would have certainly been considered a weapon in the human world. But for these giants, it was just a normal fire that they were gathered around.

Based on the clothes that these giants wore and the weapons that they used, they seemed to

be a group of hunters that were out hunting for food. Looking to the side of this group, I could also see that there were some large animals that were there.

Normal human hunters would go for things like deers and rabbits, but for these giant hunters...

Deers and rabbits were nothing more than a morsel for giants, so it wasn't as if they could fill themselves with these things.

The things that these giant hunters hunted were much more wild than the things that human hunters hunted.

These were creatures that I had expected to see since coming to this magic fantasy world. The giants hunted things like giant boars, giant snakes, and all kinds of giant creatures. These were clearly magic beasts that were also considered monsters in human society.

If these things appeared in the lands controlled by humans, they would immediately be killed out by adventurers hired by the human nobles. So there was no way that these magic creatures would appear in the lands of the humans.

After all, most humans were quite weak compared to normal monsters, so they couldn't just live alongside them.

For these giants that were strong since they were born, they could easily live with these magic beasts and even use them as food.

That was just the difference between races.

Though they were just a few hunters, I wasn't disappointed after finding them.

Rather, I felt that this was better than finding a tribe of giants.

Finding a few hunters was the better way to make first contact since they were easier to approach than a tribe of giants.

The tribe was even harder because that was where their children were.

Any race was defensive of their young since they represented the future of their race, so they wouldn't allow other races to approach the place where their youths were that easily.

After making sure that there was nothing else around, I had Klein and Shaka follow me while having the rest of the royal guards land nearby.

I didn't want to bring everyone down since it wouldn't be good if we all went down, the giants might misunderstand that we were there to attack them rather than to talk. But it wasn't as if we could go down without the wyverns at all since that would just make them think that they could take us easily.

If they thought that, there was no telling what they would do.

When we descended, the giants naturally saw us since it was hard to descend quietly on the back of a wyvern.

The moment that the giants noticed us, they all pulled out their weapons.

That was the natural first reaction when one saw a wyvern descend, so I wasn't worried about this.

They also seemed to be cautious as they didn't attack even though they had pulled out their weapons.

With the tense way that they stood there, it was as if they wanted to see what was happening that would make these wyverns suddenly approach them like this.

Even if they were giants, wyverns were not creatures that they could fight that easily.

When we got closer, the giants could naturally see the three of us on the back of the three wyverns which made them reveal confused looks since they didn't think that humans would be able to control wyverns.

That made them even more cautious and even more curious about the three of us that landed.

When we were about to land, one of the giants said in a booming voice, "Who are you and why are you on our land?"

This was an expected question, so I didn't panic when I heard this.

Though it was indeed an experience hearing the booming voices of these giants.

The giants were over twenty meters tall, even larger than the wyverns that we rode...

Well, that was except for Joan that I was sitting on since she was the Wyvern Queen, the largest out of all the wyverns. Though she was only a bit taller than the giants in the first place.

With their large size, it was only natural that their vocal chords were also much bigger, which made their voices very loud.

Taking a deep breath, I said, "We are human merchants who have lost our way. Are you interested in perusing our wares?"

The giants were all taken aback when they heard this.

Not only were they surprised by the fact that I didn't seem scared of them at all, they were

even more surprised by the fact that I was trying to sell them things.

It had been a long time since humans had come to their land and there certainly had never

been a human that rode on the back of a wyvern to visit them.

So they couldn't help being curious of this human who was so bold.

But that didn't mean that they let their guards down.

After a moment of silence, the giant said, "Even if you're lost, do you really think that you should be trading with us?"

Though he didn't say it clearly, it was obvious what he was implying.

But I didn't panic at all as I looked up at the giant and said with a smile, "A customer is a customer. As long as you're willing to buy from me, that's enough."

There was a tense silence that hung in the air before the giant suddenly burst into a booming

laugh.

After laughing for a bit, the giant said, "It's been a while since I've seen a bold human like you."
