Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure-Chapter 1056: Watch out

No one did anything until we arrived in the giant market.

The moment that we arrived, everyone's attention turned to us.

After all, we were the ones that had caused this mood to fill the giant market in the first place, so it wasn't strange that everyone would suddenly turn their attention to us like this.

We were the only ones that could bring this matter to a close.

The giants that had excited looks immediately came forward when they saw us arrive at the market.

They were the ones that had found things that they wanted to present to us, which was why they immediately came forward and presented the things that they had.

It was just too bad that none of them were actually anything useful.

The things that they presented were just random things that they found that they thought were related to this matter, but they weren't related to it at all. They were just random things that had been found on the side of the forest.

So there was nothing that they could claim in the end.

All of them walked away with depressed looks that matched the others that had depressed looks earlier.

It was just that when those that looked depressed earlier saw the change in these giants they instead looked excited. It was as if they had completely swapped with the way that their expressions changed.

They had been depressed since they hadn't found anything and they had been worried that they wouldn't be able to claim the prize. They had been worried that someone else would take the prize from them.

But now that no one had taken the prize, that meant that they still had a chance.

That was why they had excited looks again.

Though when it came to being relieved, there was no one that was as relieved as the ones that had neutral looks on their faces.

They had worried looks in their eyes at first, but those worried looks soon disappeared when they saw that not a single person had anything. It seemed that there weren't any clues that were found that might implicate anyone.

That was why they were relieved.

Though they didn't let their guards down.

They knew that this matter wouldn't be over that easily.

Even if no one claimed the reward this time, that didn't mean that they would give up that easily. It was clear by the looks on the faces of the other giants here they were still planning on searching for clues.

It seemed like they wanted to pursue this matter a bit longer.

Until the hype of this matter dies down, there is no way that they would be able to let their guard down. They could only wait until everyone lost interest in this matter before going back to normal.

Or at least that was what those people thought.

I wouldn't let things end like this.

After everyone had finished showing off their things, I suddenly came forward and said, "I want to show something to everyone."

Just saying this was enough to catch their attention since I was already the center of attention in the first place.

Once their attention was on me, I raised a crystal and inserted my mana into it.

The moment that I did this, there was an image that appeared in front of me.

While I was doing this, Alidus had pulled out a large white cloth that he hung on a tree in front of me.

With this large white cloth there, it formed a screen for the projection to appear on.

The scene was dark, but people could see a few things moving in the dark forest.

This was the scene from last night.

These were the giants in dark clothes and masks that had been searching around in the forest.

After showing everyone this, I said, "I was out on a stroll last night and I saw these suspicious individuals. I took out my image recording crystal and took a video of what had happened so that I can give everyone a warning."

In a more serious voice and turning my gaze slightly, I said, "It seems that there have been some suspicious individuals wandering around the area lately. I hope that everyone will watch out for them and won't put themselves in danger."

As for who I was looking at...

It wasn't any in particular, but the direction that I was looking at had a group that had neutral looks on their faces.

When everyone heard this, they all knitted their brows.

After all, not a single giant here had expected to be shown this kind of thing.

They didn't think that anyone would do something like this, which made them all surprised.

But they weren't fools and understood what I was trying to tell them with this video.

With this, the trap had been set.

The reason why I did all of this was to completely trap Dorian and those from the Korin Tribe.

They were still able to act because people weren't aware of them and the things that they were doing. However, once they were shown this video, the others would understand what kind of things Dorian and those from the Korin Tribe had been doing.

Once they knew, they would keep a close eye out for them.

With all of these people looking out for them, it would be impossible for Dorian and the Korin

Tribe to act.

They would have no choice but to lay low during this time and not attract any attention.

That would mean that they wouldn't be able to do anything to us.

That was my plan all along.

I just needed to stall for some time without starting a civil war.

As long as I could build up the relationship with the other giant tribes, it wouldn't be too late

to take care of Dorian and the Korin Tribe.

Though the video was a bit extra.

Just the reward and everyone looking out for them should have been enough, but this video

tipped the scale.

It made it so that they would have no choice but to lay low.

But pushing them this far was not what Alidus wanted.

Still, he had no choice but to accept it since I had already done it.
