Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure-Chapter 1040: Cute

While everyone was off trading with the giants, I was still with Alidus and Isra.

From the information that Alidus provided in secret, I learned that the Harakka Tribe and the Korin Tribe that Dorian was from were the largest tribes in the surrounding areas.

Then following that was the Vale Tribe that Isra came from.

There were some other tribes that were a bit smaller than the Vale Tribe, but most of them didn't align themselves with any other tribes.

There were a few that aligned themselves with the Korin Tribe and the Harakka Tribe, which was why some giants helped the Korin Tribe earlier.

The reason why the ones that aligned with the Harakka Tribe didn't do anything was because Alidus had been defending us. Defending humans was not something that they could be a part of since it was not something that was looked favourably among giants.

Especially since they didn't know anything about the humans that were being defended.

Leaving the other giants to the others of my group, I focused my attention on Isra.

If I could convince her to ally with us, then it would guarantee that our Kite Kingdom would be able to have peace with the giants.

With the Harakka Tribe and the Vale Tribe on our side, the Korin Tribe wouldn't be able to do anything even if the other tribes supported them.

Not to mention that we were getting the support of the other tribes at the same time with the goods that we traded them.

"You really are something, coming into the land of the giant race like this. Even if you were confident in your goods, it isn't something that can be done that easily. This kind of courage really is rare to see in a human." Isra said in a voice filled with admiration.

This was after Alidus told her a little more about how I had come to this Land of Giants.

Namely, the story that Olmir, his uncle told him.

Which was the story of when I first met Olmir.

I just said with an awkward smile, "It isn't anything special. I just found an opportunity and I seized it. Nothing more, nothing less."

Isra shook her head before saying, "It's not like that at all. Just the fact that you took this chance is already amazing enough."

I couldn't help feeling even more awkward and a bit confused after hearing this.

After all, the way that Isra said this seemed strange.

She said this in a voice that seemed to be filled with admiration, even more so than she should have had for me. After all, I was just a normal human and nothing special.

Even if she admired me for being bold enough to come here, it shouldn't reach this level.

The way that she said this was almost as if she was...

Well, I didn't even want to think about that possibility since that was a bad possibility for me. Instead, I tried to change the topic by asking, "Is there anything that you like from our wares? If your Vale Tribe is interested in anything, I can offer them to you at a special price. After all, a friend of my friend is my friend as well."

I made sure to flash her a smile as I said this.

After all, the body that I was currently in was a very handsome one, which was how I had obtained all of those wives of mine.

Using this handsomeness to my advantage was definitely not a bad thing.

But to my surprise, Isra suddenly turned away from me.

It was almost as if she couldn't look right at me with the way that she turned away.

There was a bad feeling that filled me when I saw her act this way.

That was interrupted when I heard a howl coming from behind me.

I turned around to see that it was Terry who was calling out from Joan's arms.

It had been silent for a while now since it was in an unfamiliar place, but now it couldn't take it anymore and called out for me.

I let out an internal sigh of relief when I heard this.

Terry's howl had come at just the right time for me.

I had been thinking about how to get out of this situation, but I hadn't been able to think of a single thing. As such, Terry's howl gave me the perfect excuse to move away from this awkward situation and see what he wanted.

This gave me the chance to avoid confronting Isra on why she was acting this way.

Terry was easy to handle since he just seemed like he was lonely because he was in an unfamiliar place and surrounded by giants like this. All it took was a few pats to the head for him to calm down.

After calming Terry down, I turned back and said, "I'm sorry about that. I just caught this Great Wolf cub and it isn't properly trained yet. I hope that you will not mind this."

"Cute." Isra suddenly said in a voice that seemed like she was trying to say this to herself, but she had accidentally said it too loudly that everyone heard her.

The giants from the Vale Tribe had awkward looks on their faces, but it didn't seem like they were surprised by what she said. It even seemed like they were used to seeing her say things like this.

As for Alidus, there was a faint smile that appeared on his lips.

I was confused why she was acting like this at first, but then I patted Terry again before saying with a smile, "He's cute isn't he? But it's only when he's a child that he's cute, he'll look much more ferocious in the future."

"That isn't what I meant." Isra said with a shake of her head that made me even more confused.

Seeing this, Alidus waved his hand for me to come closer to him.
