Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 1018: To the Land of Giants



A week after deciding the trip to the Land of Giants, it was finally time for us to set off.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

The head of the group was naturally me since it was my idea to go there in the first place. At the same time, I was the one that insisted on going because only I knew what to do with the giants.

The ones that were assigned to help me this time were Shaka and Klein.

Klein was obvious since he was the captain of the royal guards and the job of the royal guards was to protect the king and the royal family. If I was going to a dangerous place, he and the other royal guards would naturally be coming along as my guards.

Shaka was coming along since he was someone that was familiar with the way that I worked.

He was someone that could go along with the things that I did better than others since he was used to the twists that I normally brought out. But at the same time, I knew that the prime minister had sent him along to keep me in line just in case things went wrong.

Since Shaka had been with me for a long time, it could be said that we were quite close.

He was someone that I respected and would listen to if things went wrong.

After all, once I became the king, I had learned about his true identity.

He really was a legendary person in our kingdom, but it seemed like he had gotten tired of living that kind of life and wanted to protect the kingdom from the shadows. That was why he joined Shadow Garden in the first place.

Along with the royal guards were also a group that had been assigned to me by the prime minister.

These were people that were skilled in the logistic side of running a government that he had personally trained. These were people that could handle the paperwork issue if anything came up and would be able to help as diplomats when the time came.

They were the antithesis to the brute force that was the royal guards.

There was no doubt that this group was certainly useful and I knew that the prime minister would suffer without them.

They were a group that he had trained to help him run the government, they were his skilled arms and legs. So by sending them with me, it was clear that he was crippling himself during this time.

But he still did it without hesitation since he knew that this was where they would best serve their use.

I was grateful to him for this.

After we all gathered, I looked over the group in front of me and said, "When we arrive in the Land of Giants, I hope that all of you will follow my orders precisely. There's no telling what will happen when we arrive in the territory of the giants."

Then after a pause, I said, "But if anything goes wrong, I hope that you will use your own judgement and prioritize your own lives. I'll do my best, but I also want you to do your best to come back alive."

Everyone had determined looks after hearing this before giving firm nods of agreement. Seeing the fired up looks in their eyes, I knew that there was nothing else that I had to say. Turning around, I just waved my hand at them as I said, "Let's head out then."

All of us boarded the wyverns after I said this.

The diplomats had to share wyverns with the royal guards since they weren't trained as wyvern riders and didn't have their own wyverns.

Our group headed out of the capital under everyone's gaze and then quickly headed in the direction of the former Vikal Kingdom.

There was nothing that stopped us at what used to be the border of the Vikal Kingdom and the Kite Kingdom. There was still a border there since there were still things that the prime minister and chancellor needed to control, but it was quite the relaxed border since we were supposed to be a united country now.

Though no one would be crazy enough to stop wyverns.

Some of the people there were former soldiers of the Vikal Kingdom, so they were afraid when they saw us pass.

I could see the looks on their faces.

They looked at us as if they were afraid that we were here to once again invade them.

Though there was no need since we had already finished invading them and had even taken over their kingdom.

So in the end, we just moved past the border and reached the other border.

This border was the border of the former Vikal Kingdom and was right next to the Land of Giants, but we didn't go past that border today.

Instead, we landed in one of the towns near that border and prepared to head there tomorrow morning.

It was better to go in the morning than in the afternoon like this since it would give us an entire day to deal with anything that happened instead of just a short period of time.

Only that meant that we had to deal with the noble that was in charge of this town.

We came on the back of wyverns, so it was impossible for them to just ignore us and it wasn't as if we could just ignore them since they were nobles of the new Kite Kingdom.

It was only after a long banquet that I was able to reach the balcony of the room that they prepared for me.

This hotel was the tallest hotel in the town, so I was able to see quite far by standing on the balcony.

Standing there, I looked in the direction of the Land of Giants with a complicated look.

Though I had shown a confident front, I was actually quite worried about what was to come. "Tomorrow..." I said with a sigh to myself.
