Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 1038: Can’t be friends with everyone



There was a silence that hung in the air as no one said anything.

The situation had degraded into a staring competition with the way that we all looked at each other.

However, even though the situation had become like this, I didn't back down at all.

After all, I knew that this would be important for how things developed from here on out.

If I were to show any weakness, there was no doubt that they would pounce on that and take advantage of this. If I didn't show that we had the strength to back the stance that we were showing, then they would look down on us and this would never work.

But most importantly of all, I knew that it was impossible to become friends with everyone. It was like trying to please everyone in the world, that was something that was impossible. There were many different people in this world who all had different opinions about things. To change all of their minds was something that was impossible since one could never please everyone.

It was inevitable that people would have different opinions and the sooner that one accepted that, the sooner one would be able to move forward.

I was a realist, so I knew that I wouldn't be able to please everyone in the giant race.

Of course, it wasn't as if I needed to do that since the giant race was split up into tribes in the first place. They didn't have a single central ruler, each tribe looked after themselves.

So as long as I was able to befriend most of the tribes, that would be enough.

It seemed that the anti-human sentiments wasn't that dominant among the giant tribes, so it seemed like I didn't have to befriend this Korin Tribe.

It was better to focus on the Harakka Tribe that I had already befriended since there would be more to gain from that.

Of course, there were my personal feelings as well.

I liked how I was treated by the Harakka Tribe better than how the Korin Tribe was treating

me.

After that long silence, the slightly chubby giant suddenly gave a snort and turned to everyone to say, "Do you see how this human looks down on us? He thinks that just because we're giants, he can do whatever he wants. That's typical of a human!"

There were some giants that reacted when this slightly chubby giant said this, but the rest of them didn't seem to care.

It seemed that they weren't riled up by his words.

It seemed that most of them could see through his actions and weren't interested in being used by him.

So they just ignored him when he said this.

Though the ones that did react did outnumber our group and it didn't seem like the ones that were standing on the side were planning on doing anything other than watching. Even if they didn't hate humans, that didn't mean that they would step up for a human that they knew nothing about.

It seemed like this matter would turn into a fight which was the last thing that I wanted.

Humans fighting giants, even if there were the giants of the Harakka Tribe helping us, there was no doubt that this would be a bad look. If this was spread to the other giant tribes in the Land of Giants, then it would only hurt my plans to befriend the giants.

But it didn't seem like we had a choice.

Taking a deep breath, I patted Joan to give her a sign to prepare to fight if there was a need to. The other wyvern riders also made their preparations as they prepared to fight the Korin Tribe group.

But before that could happen...

"What do you think you're doing, Dorian?" There was a loud voice that rang out that was normal for a giant, but this was different from the normal rough voices of the giants.

It was the softer voice of a female, but even among female giants, this voice was more beautiful.

It was like the singing of an oriole.

When everyone turned to look in the direction of the voice, they were surprised.

Giants looked just like humans, only they were much taller than normal humans.

But that meant that the aesthetic sense of giants was similar to humans and vice versa. This was a beautiful giant girl who was standing there with her arms crossed as she looked at the two groups who seemed like they were about to fight. Though the one that she was looking at the most was the slightly chubby giant who was leading the group from the Korin Tribe.

When the slightly chubby giant whose name seemed to be Dorian saw this, he couldn't help giving a slight tremble. Then in a slow voice, he asked, "Isra, what are you doing? Don't get in the way of this."

The beautiful giant girl who was called Isra shook her head and said with a sigh, "Who says that humans can't come to trade in our market? This is a place where everyone is free to trade whatever they want to trade, that was the reason why our ancestors set this place up in the first place. This is not the place where your Korin Tribe has the final say, this is a place where all tribes make a decision."

Dorian deeply knitted his brows when he heard this, but he didn't say anything to refute this.

Based on the way that he looked at this beautiful giant girl named Isra, it seemed like he had feelings for her. As such, it didn't seem like he wanted to do anything that would make her have a bad impression of him.

After a long silence, Dorian finally raised his hand and...waved it at the ones that followed him before saying, "We're leaving."

It seemed like he didn't want to fight in front of the girl that he loved.

That was how this fight was settled.
