Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure-Chapter 1024: Chief of the Harakka Tribe

With a smile on my face, I said, "It's a pleasure to meet the junior chief of the Harakka Tribe." Then I reached my hand out even though it seemed strange for a human to reach a hand out towards a giant.

Alidus just stood there looking at me with a strange look without taking my hand in the end.

There was an awkward silence that lingered in the air before someone said, "This idiot son of mine."

Then before anyone could react, there was someone that suddenly walked over and slapped Alidus on the back of the head. However, even though he had been slapped on the back of the head, it didn't seem like he was going to complain about it.

There was only one person that could do such a thing to the son of the chief.

It was naturally the father, the chief of the tribe.

"Brother, you didn't have to slap him on the back of the head like that." Olmir spoke up for his nephew, but...

"Brother, you've always been too kind to him. I know that you want him to realize these things on his own, but that's caused him to stray down the wrong path. Sometimes you need a bit of force to bring him back to the right path." The chief said without any hesitation.

It seemed that the two brothers really were different when it came to how they taught children, which showed the different personalities that they had.

But even then, it seemed like the relationship between them was quite good.

After the two of them talked about Alidus for a bit, the chief looked at me and said, "I've heard about you. I'm Olos, chief of this tribe."

The way that he said this was very curt, which aligned with the personality that he had shown. But even if what he said was curt, that didn't mean that he had said it in a disrespectful manner.

This was just the way that he spoke and the personality that he had, so it wasn't as if he was insulting them.

Rather, this was his own way of showing his respect.

So I didn't mind his curt manner of speaking and just said with a smile, "It's an honour to meet you Chief Olos. I am Zwein and this is my group of merchants. We're here to trade with you if you're willing to accept us."

Olos gave a nod in response before saying, "I've already seen the things that you've brought, so I'm fine with my people trading with you for them. However, I hope that you will have your discretion when trading with my people."

His voice turned a bit cold when he said this, but I didn't mind it at all.

I knew that he was just doing his part as the chief by threatening me to look out for his people, so of course I wouldn't mind at all. As a king, I understood the responsibility that a leader had towards his people, so I knew that there was nothing wrong with this.

But what Olos said next caught me off guard.

"Alidus, you will help these humans with everything that they need to set up their stand. If they require anything, you will help them with everything that you have. If I hear that you've ignored this task, you can be sure that there will be hell to pay."

After saying this, he didn't even bother looking back as he started walking away.

Olmir had a faint smile on his face when he heard this, but then he patted Alidus on the shoulder before saying, "Work hard, nephew. Your father expects great things from you this time."

Alidus clearly had a confused and unwilling look on his face, but there was nothing that he could say when both his father and uncle had said this. At this point, there was only one path forward for him.

As for me, I was completely caught off guard by their actions.

After all, by all right, giants shouldn't care about humans at all.

It couldn't be said that giants hated humans, it was just that they didn't want any interaction with humans at all. That was because in their minds, humans were greedy creatures that only cared about their own profits.

That was the general idea that most of the other races had about humans after the race wars.

So it was strange that they would have such an opinion of a human and would accept us trading in their tribe that easily.

These two brothers must have had some kind of experience in the past that would make them think this way.

There was no doubt that there was a deeper secret to all of this.

But that wasn't important now.

Not to mention that I wouldn't even be able to get them to tell me that story if I wanted to. This would certainly be a private thing for them, so it wasn't as if they would share this that easily.

Instead, I turned to look at Alidus who still had an unwilling look on his face.

It was clear that he didn't want anything to do with us, but there was nothing that he could do since he had received an order. He would be punished if he didn't follow this order, so he had no choice in the matter.

After a long silence, Alidus turned around and waved his hand at us before saying, "Come and follow me. I'll find a stall for you in the market and you can sell your goods there."

Then he suddenly paused and looked at the wyverns before saying, "The wyverns can't all come into the village with us. Some of you will have to stay outside for now since we won't be able to support all of you."

This was expected since wyverns were dangerous even for giants.

It wasn't as if they would allow them to enter the village that easily.

All that was required were a few of us, so most of the others went outside the village to set up

a camp for us.

The rest of us followed Alidus to the market of this village of giants.
