Chapter 1045: Breakdown
Chapter 1045: Breakdown
Of course, it wasn't just him alone. Naturally he was being followed by the other giants from the Korin Tribe.
All of them seemed like they were ready to fight at any moment with the way that they wielded their weapons.
At the same time, the ones from the Harakka Tribe also pulled out their weapons as if they were prepared to fight.
Alidus had a serious look on his face as he looked at Dorian, but Dorian didn't seem to care about this at all. It seemed like Dorian's attention was completely on me just because Isra was standing close to me.
It seemed like the feelings that he had for her were much deeper than I thought that he would react like this.
With the way that he looked at me, it was almost as if he was prepared to go all out against
me.
But even if he looked like this, it wasn't as if I would back down.
I wasn't the kind of person to back down just because I was being threatened like this and if I were to back down, there was no doubt that it would have the opposite effect. At a time like this, if I were to show weakness, there was no doubt that he would exploit it and become even more arrogant.
So the only thing that could be done was...
"First, are you qualified to say something like this?" I said in a cold voice as I narrowed my eyes to look at him.
Dorian wanted to say something, but I cut him off by saying, "You're treating her like she is your property. Do you really have the final say in this matter?"
Dorian's face twisted when he heard this, but it was clear that he had been affected by these words as he slowly turned to look at Isra. When he saw that she was looking at him with a cold look, he quickly started to stutter.
"I didn't mean it like that. I was just...I was just trying to protect you from these greedy and vile humans." Dorian tried to explain his actions, but the expression on Isra's face didn't change in the face of his explanation.
She just listened to him with the same cold look on her face.
When his voice finally sputtered out, she said, "Is that really all that you have to say?"
Dorian was shocked and confused as he couldn't understand what she was trying to imply with these words. He didn't know what to say as she just looked at him with those cold eyes.
In the end, Isra gave a disappointed sigh before saying, "It seems like you really have changed."
Dorian's face twisted when he heard this, but there were no words that he could say to refute this.
I suddenly said, "She was waiting for an apology."
Dorian was caught off guard by these words, but he didn't dismiss them right away as he looked at Isra as if he was gauging her reaction.
When he saw her expression relax a bit, he realized that these words were correct.
After thinking about it, Dorian just completely ignored me and bowed his head to Isra as he said, "I'm sorry for the way that I talked. I didn't think about your feelings when I said those words. I shouldn't have said them in a way that made it seem like you were my belonging."
Isra narrowed her eyes to look at Dorian after he 'apologized' before suddenly shaking her head and giving another disappointed sigh.
Dorian's face twisted when he saw this before he quickly turned back to me and said in an enraged voice, "You dare trick me! I'll kill you!"
It seemed that he had completely lost his sense of control in his rage.
The apology that Isra really wanted was an apology to me.
That was what I was trying to remind Dorian of.
However, it seemed like Isra treated me quite well if this was the way that she reacted to Dorian's apology.
It could be seen why he had completely lost control of himself like this.
A man would always find it hard to accept when they saw the woman that they loved treating another man this well.
It wasn't just a matter of pride, it was a matter of the heart.
Matters of the heart made one irrational sometimes.
Once he lost control of himself like this, Dorian pulled out his weapon and looked like he wanted to charge at me. He brought his club up and looked like he wanted to swing it down at
me.
But before he could do that, Alidus had already come forward to bring his club up to stop Dorian from attacking.
Their two clubs clashed in the air and there was a powerful gust of wind that was released. At the same time, I could sense faint traces of mana being released from this clash.
It seemed like it wasn't just Alidus' weapon that was special, it seemed like even Dorian's weapon was special.
As expected of the junior chiefs of the two largest tribes in the area.
After the clash, Dorian looked at Alidus and said, "What are you doing? I don't have a bone to pick with you."
The way that he said this was almost as if he was trying to pressure Alidus to back down. However, there was no hesitation in Alidus' voice as he said, "You're trying to attack the guest of our Harakka Tribe, do you really think that I would just let you do that?"
Dorian narrowed his eyes to look at Alidus before saying, "Do you really want to escalate this? Do you know what will happen if you keep trying to protect these humans like this?"
Alidus didn't seem threatened at all as he calmly said, "You're the one that's pushing the issue. It's not as if I want to do this either."
The two of them just coldly looked at each other.
With the tense atmosphere, it was as if the relationship between them was about to break
down.
It was almost as if a civil war was about to happen among the giants.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
