Chapter 1144: Alliance (1)


    ?


    There was a sh of light that appeared in front of me before the scene changed. When I came back to my senses, I found that I was standing on top of Joan again.


    It didn''t even seem like any time had passed with the way that she was just standing there. It was as if she hadn''t noticed that my mind and soul had beenpletely pulled out of my body and into another realm.


    But now that I was back, I could see that I was in the same room as before.


    It didn''t seem like there was anything that had changed during this time.


    Feeling me finally move, Joan looked up at me as if she was curious about something.


    I looked at her and asked, "Did nothing happen just now?"


    Joan had a confused look on her face when she heard this as if she didn''t understand why I was asking her this. After a moment of hesitation, she slowly shook her head to show that she didn''t know what I was talking about.


    It seemed that the power of the gods really couldn''t be understood by mortals.


    With a shake of my head, I said, "It''s nothing, don''t worry about it."


    Joan looked at me as if she was still confused by what I was saying, but she didn''t do anything else.


    I looked at the club that was on the pedestal and then thought about taking it, but then I remembered the size difference between me and the club. This was a club that was used by the Origin Giant, which meant that it was as big as a buildingpared to me.


    It wasn''t something that I could just take on my own.


    But before having Joan take it as well, I remembered what the Origin Giant had told me.


    As this thought passed through my mind, I patted Joan on the back and said, "Let''s leave this room."


    Joan gave a simple nod before turning to open the door.


    Standing in the room outside were the giant elders who all seemed to be gathered in a circle. With the way that they were standing, it was as if they had been waiting for me toe out. Then the moment that I dide out, I was immediately turned into the center of attention. At the same time, I was surrounded by all of these giant elders who came forward.


    Elder Ogrin was the one that spoke for them by asking, "What happened in there?"


    I just calmly looked at them and said, "Come in with me. Lord Origin Giant wants to see you all."


    The giant elders were all surprised to hear this, but they still nodded in agreement before following me into the room.


    Once we were all in the room, there were strange looks that appeared on all of their faces as they seemed to wait for something to happen. However, it didn''t seem like there was anything that was about to happen.


    A bitter smile appeared on my face as I stood there on the back of Joan.


    It was as if the Origin Giant had lied to me...


    As the giant elders seemed like they were getting impatient, there was a voice that suddenly rang out through the room.


    "Elders of the giant race, listen to my words."


    As soon as they heard this, looks of shock appeared on the faces of the elders before they had excited looks. They all seemed to recognize the voice that had suddenly rang out through the


    room.


    I wasn''t surprised by this since I also recognized this voice.


    They had said that I would know after entering this room and now I knew.


    The Origin Giant was able to talk to them through the relic that he left, which was why that voice rang out now.


    "Lord Origin Giant, whatmand do you have for us?" Elder Ogrin represented the others to ask this.


    "Ogrin, is that you?" The Origin Giant asked.


    "Yes, ancestor. The twenty third direct line descendant is here."


    It turned out that Elder Ogrin was the direct line descendant of the Origin Giant.


    While all giants were rted to the Origin Giant ording to the myth, the reality of it was that it was impossible for that to be true.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om


    They might be rted in some way because of marriage, but it was impossible for them to all be direct descendants.


    There had to be one line of direct descendants and it seemed that Elder Ogrin was from that line.


    "Good, since you''re here, I want you to pass down this order from me to the rest of the giant race."


    The giant elders all bowed their heads at this before Elder Ogrin said in a respectful voice, "Yes, ancestor."


    "This human, Zwein, has passed my trials and has earned my acknowledgement. He is entitled to use my relic as he pleases."


    "Huh?" Shocked looks immediately appeared on the faces of all the giant elders when they heard this before they slowly looked at me with strange looks.


    Another bitter smile appeared on my lips when I saw them looking at me like this, but then I revealed a calm look as I stood there without any reactions.


    "Ancestor, this is the relic of our giant race...Can we really give it to someone else like this?" With a gulp Elder Ogrin added, "Especially when that person is a human?"


    "He is the one that has received my acknowledgement, so he will decide what to do with the relic. Or is there anything else that you want to say?" The Origin Giant''s voice rang out again with a trace of a threatening tone to it.


    All of the giant elders lowered their heads when they heard this before Elder Ogrin said, "We will follow your orders."


    As if to save them, I said, "Lord Origin Giant, thank you for this trust."


    "I''ve already said it, you can just call me by my name, Aurgel."


    Once again, shocked looks appeared on the faces of all the giant elders.


    This time, they were more shocked than they were previously.
