Chapter 1029: Mimicking beasts
There was only a second of hesitation this time before Alidus nodded in agreement.
He didn't even seem to bother asking what the plan was, he just directly nodded in agreement which showed the trust that he had.
It was only after showing my understanding of the Great Wolves that Alidus had formed this kind of trust in me.
After all, the Great Wolves had tormented the giants for a long time with their magic spells. The giants would never have a proper way to fight them since the magic spells would always destroy the arrows that they fired at them.
For the longest time, the giant hunters had been suppressed by the magic spell attacks of the Great Wolves, so they hadn't been able to do anything about these Great Wolves.
With how smart they were and how these Great Wolves sometimes attacked the giants, it was almost as if they were the ones that were being hunted by the Great Wolves.
That had created a large hatred between the giants and the Great Wolves.
One that helped increase the trust between Alidus and us.
Since he agreed, I didn't waste any time in explaining my plan.
There was a surprised look on Alidus' face at first, but then he gave a determined nod before saying, "Let me take the vanguard."
I was surprised since I thought that he would have us do it since it was safer that way, but it seemed that he didn't care about safety. It seemed that he sincerely wanted to work with us on this matter.
In that case...
I just simply gave a nod in response and then had Joan pick up the curled up giant child. Zaag was surprised to be picked up like this and when he looked up at Joan, he seemed like he was even more terrified. The look on his face was as if he thought that he was being carried off as a piece of prey that was about to be eaten by the predator.
But he was just too scared to act even though he was being carried off.
Though it didn't really seem like he was prey since he was quite tall.
Even if Zaag was a child, he was still a giant which meant that he was already much taller than normal humans at seven to eight meters tall. It was only because he was being carried by the wyvern that he seemed small.
No one really would think that he was prey.
When we saw him acting this way, we couldn't help revealing smiles.
This was a child that had snuck out because he had been dared by his companions and now he was afraid of a wyvern picking him up.
It really didn't seem like this kid had a good mentality.
He was too easily swayed by others.
Still Alidus said, "Don't worry, they are carrying you to safety."
When Zaag saw that it was Alidus who said this, he did calm down a bit.
Though there was still a worried look on his face when he saw the wolves and flames that surrounded them.
After comforting Zaag, Alidus turned to look at the wolves that were in front of him and took a deep breath to say, "I'm sorry for getting you caught up in this."
The one that he said this to were the giants that had come with him.
But they didn't seem to mind as they all looked at him with smiles on their faces and one of them said, "We're used to it."
Alidus also revealed a smile when he heard this, but he didn't say anything else.
There was nothing else for him to say, all he could do now was lead his men into battle. Before he charged forward though, he couldn't help looking up at the wyverns that were flying above them once more. The way that he looked at the wyvern was strange, it was different from how he had looked at the wyverns before.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The way that Alidus was looking at the wyvern now was almost as if he was analyzing it.
It was as if he was trying to take a closer look at the composition of the wyvern's body.
Then after looking at the wyvern, he suddenly charged forward.
Instead of swinging with his club like the other wyverns did, Alidus suddenly flapped his hands down.
The way that he did this almost seemed familiar...
After he flapped his hands down, he actually flew into the air.
Part of it was because of the flapping of his hands and the other half was just him jumping into the air.
This put him high up above the Great Wolves in front of him, putting him much higher than he would have been if he had jumped alone. It seemed that the arms flapping had helped him fly up even higher than normal.
It was almost like how wyverns flapped their wings to fly.
Once he reached a certain height, Alidus suddenly changed the direction he was facing so he was aiming right at the Great Wolf in front of him. Then with a flap of his arms, he shot forward at that Great Wolf.
It was at a speed that the Great Wolf wasn't able to keep up with, so it couldn't stop Alidus as
he suddenly turned in the air and sent a flying kick at the Great Wolf.
With the added speed, the kick was even more powerful than usual.
The Great Wolf was picked off the ground and sent flying through the air as a result of this kick.
But that wasn't the end of it.
As he had been flying through the air, Alidus had been keeping a close eye on the Great Wolves in front of him just like he had been staring at the wyvern earlier.
Then when he landed, he suddenly fell to all four limbs and looked like a beast as he stared at the Great Wolves that were around him.
