Chapter 1035: Follow him
?
After we finishedughing, Olos suddenly turned to look at Alidus to everyone''s surprise. Looking at him, Olos suddenly said with a serious look, "You have your worries?"
Alidus was even more caught off guard when he heard this and it seemed like he wanted to deny this at first, but then he suddenly gave a nod when he saw the way that his father looked at him.
Olos didn''t seem to mind that Alidus was being honest like this and even seemed to encourage him to speak his mind.
With Olos encouraging him like this, Alidus turned to look at me before saying, "You lied to us in the end."
I was surprised that he would say this right to my face in front of his father and uncle like this, but I didn''t do anything as I just simply nodded to confirm this.
I was also curious about what he was nning to say.
At the very least, it didn''t seem like he had any ill intentions towards me when he said this. He just seemed like he was a bit angry about the fact that I hadn''t been truthful.
After another silence, Alidus took a deep breath and said, "I know that you have your own reasons for doing this, but you should know that the human race has done many things to our giant race since ancient times. It is not easy for us to ept humans, which is why we iste ourselves in the first ce."
Then in a softer voice, he said, "I didn''t think that even you would lie to us..."
There was a trace of bitterness that filled me when I heard this since the way that he said this was almost as if he was a scorned lover or something like that.
I most certainly did not swing that way!
But after he gathered himself, he said, "I know that you are different from the other humans at the very least, or that is what I want to believe."
Then turning to Olos, he said, "Chief, I wish to follow them for a while to observe them. I know that you assigned me to help them set up their stall so that I could see that not all humans are the same and I understand, but I want to go with them to the market so I can observe them further."
Olos was surprised by this proposal from Alidus.
Even if he had thought that Alidus had something that he wanted, this was thest thing that he had expected from him.
But there was a look of pride that appeared in his eyes after a while as he looked at Alidus.
Even if he had been caught off guard by the sudden proposal that Alidus made, this was the kind of thinking that he wanted to see from him. He wanted his son to have more experience and to not just take things at face value.
Olos looked over at Olmir who looked back at him with a smile on his face before giving a nod. Only then did Olos turn back to Alidus to say, "You''re old enough to make your own decisions now. If you think that this is for the best, then you''re free to make this decision."
Then all of a sudden, he went to the side and picked up a club that was ced there. Raising this club in front of him, he looked at it as if he was reminiscing about something. After looking like that for a bit, Olos came back with the club and presented it to Alidus. This time, it was Alidus'' turn to be surprised since he never expected Olos to give him this club.
"Father, what are you doing?" Alidus said in a surprised voice.
"Just take it." Olos said without any hesitation.
Alidus had a moved look on his face when he heard this before slowly reaching out to take the club from Olos.
I had no idea what was happening at first, but then I started to recognize the club that Olos gave Alidus. It was something that I had seen in the game as well since it was Alidus'' special weapon.
It seemed that this unique weapon was one that was inherited from his father.
The two of them remained in their own little world for a bit until the touching moment came to an end.
Alidus turned back to look at me and with a look that almost seemed like he was challenging me, he said, "It''s fine if Ie with you to the market, right?"
I just looked at him and revealed a wide smile before saying, "Of course you cane with us. We would be d to have you."
These were my sincere feelings, but it wasn''t for the same reason that Alidus wanted to follow us.
Rather, it was for a more personal reason that I wanted him to follow us.
Since I had knowledge from the game, I knew what Alidus would be in the future. I had even seen traces of this when we were fighting the Great Wolves earlier, so I knew that he would certainly be a hero unit in the future.
Though I had no idea what his breakthrough would be.
Still, that alone was enough to make me want to keep him by my side.
A future hero unit was without a doubt a very good asset to have, not to mention that he was the junior chief of the Harakka Tribe. Someone like this would certainly be a great asset to not just me, but the entire Kite Kingdom.
He might be the one that would help us get giant troops in the future.
So now that I''ve found him, I wasn''t nning on letting him go.
It was best if he could follow me forever.
The way that I looked at Alidus made him feel ufortable and he looked at me as if he was

"I don''t swing that way!"
I don''t swing that way either! It''s not what you think!
