You and me under the world tree

"He made a bet with my...friend, and then cheated halfway!"

Well, it sure looks like something Utgarde would do.

Howard just listened.

But when he looked up again, he saw the giant gnashing his teeth.

Looks pretty angry.

"Uh... what is the content of your bet?"

"us……"

He followed the words almost subconsciously.

But soon, the giant realized something.

"It's not me, it's my friend."

"Well, your friend."

Hodder nodded, his expression unchanged:

"What is the content of the bet?"

It's okay if Huo De didn't say anything, the giant was already a little impatient when he opened his mouth.

"Gambling to drink, this man actually connected his wine barrel to his cellar wine storage, how could I drink it all!"

"..."

Immediately afterwards, the scene was completely silent.

Hodder just looked at him, and the giant fell silent.

long silence...

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Now, although there are still figures walking on the streets of Ash Tree City.

However, because the sun had already set, the number of people was much less than the noise and prosperity in the morning.

And most of the giant merchants have already chosen to close their stalls and go home.

Whether it is those who choose to set up small stalls at will or open more formal shops, they have all gone.

And there is only one reason, because those human beings who come and go will not come out to hang out at this time.

As far as the giants who usually sell goods are concerned, those humans who come from afar are actually the main group of people. If they don't move around, then the giants' shop is meaningless.

It was nothing before, but now, it really saved the dignity of that giant.

At least that's how he sees it.

It's one thing to gaffe yourself, the most important thing is not to be seen!

But it is a pity that there is still a human being in front of him.

"Cough cough cough cough."

Thinking of this, the giant couldn't help coughing.

And his cough broke the weird and awkward silence.

"So, the whole thing goes like this."

Staring at the giant, Hodder spoke slowly.

His voice wasn't slow, but it sounded like a time-level torture to the giant's ears.

"Your friend made a bet with Utgarde and lost the necklace that your sister gave you?"

"Right, that is it."

Seeing the human's very upright appearance, the giant couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

At the same time, he also liked the human being a lot.

"That necklace was a birthday present from my sister."

He added.

"But I can't blame my ... friend for this matter."

Huo De can be seen that this giant is a bit straightforward in terms of character, and it is a bit too straightforward.

The pause in the middle of your words is because you are afraid that people will not be able to recognize it?

However, even though he complained wildly in his heart, Hodder still looked calm on the surface.

"After all, it was that guy who played tricks first, so my friend came to the door directly, and he was tricked directly."

"Why did you get tricked again?"

"..."

The giant didn't speak, and seemed a little embarrassed.

After a while, he sighed.

"I can't say anything in detail, but this person will transform his palace into various traps. Although it is not fatal, it is always embarrassing to get caught, and that guy likes to see people make a fool of himself."

The giant had already spoken to this point, and Huo De also knew that he had no way to continue asking.

"However, once he decides to accept your order, then you can relax, after all, his craftsmanship is guaranteed."

said the giant again.

"See this city?"

"Well, what happened?"

"This city was actually designed and built by Utgard, and it is still expanding according to his plan."

"Oh I got it."

Howard nodded slowly.

"Thank you then, what's your name?"

"My name is Beli, come find me when you have time, and buy you a drink. As for now, it's time for me to close the stall."

Then, Huo De just got a giant friend who can communicate with him inexplicably?

Huo De just left step by step, but in the end, he still turned his head to look at the somewhat upright giant.

Although the giant named Bailey didn't finish his sentence, he should have gotten his necklace back in the end.

wrong……

How did I just hear a story?

Let's inquire again.

After throwing this upright figure out of his mind, Hodder started to move again.

And what he inquired about was of course the giant Utgarde.

If at the beginning, the giant named Pele that Hodder found could only be a coincidence, then the next thing will be different.

After turning around, Hodder found that Utgard itself was quite famous.

However, he is famous not because of his house design concept or craftsmanship, but because of his character and temper.

After turning around, he found that many people had the same evaluation of Utgarde:

Weird, smart, and not a good thing at first sight.

Well, these reviews are actually not that good.

There are even giants who think that Utgarde has misrepresented the frost giants of the Jotun tribe.

This made Hodder, who was deeply influenced by the legends of the human world, feel speechless.

After all, in human legends, the frost giants of Jotunheim are an evil race because of the poison flowing in their bodies.

Of course, this statement is actually nonsense, and only the second half of it is correct.

As the sons and descendants of Ymir, the blood of the frost giants is indeed poisonous.

But on this point, the current Aesir and Vanir are the same, and the deep-sea giant Egil is the real "Blood of Ymir".

So it's just a matter of how much.

As for the evil rhetoric, it is of course a cognition that belongs exclusively to human beings.

After all, most of the giants wandering around Midgard were engaged in murder and arson, making the humans living in them miserable.

However, since most of these so-called giant bandits were expelled by the giant kings of Jotunheim, and the gods obviously played an ignominious role in it, the source of this information is debatable.

As for the real Jotun frost giants, Hodder felt that they were not much different from humans or gods.

It is nothing more than a group of people with wisdom, among whom there are enthusiastic and cheerful good people like Eggers, and there are also idiots like Green who is the self-proclaimed king who takes pleasure in plundering and killing human beings.

As for Utgarde, this guy is also a bit strange among the Jotun tribe.

First of all, he must not be considered a good person, because a good person does not say to help others, but he will never make trouble on the sidelines.

But Utgard did a lot of shit, and he would even jump in the face when others were frustrated.

Then he didn't do little things like cheating and abduction.

And the reason why it is said to be a trivial matter is that every one of his frauds did not cause any bad results.

Generally speaking, as long as you come to the door to ask for it, you will definitely get it back in the end, and you can even get a certain amount of compensation.

But, do you think this is over?

of course not.

This guy is keen to design all kinds of traps and mechanisms in his palace to entrap visitors, and in a sense, this may be his ultimate goal.

It is very likely that cheating and abduction is just some kind of inducement to lure others to come to him, and then encounter various traps in his palace.

As for himself, he may be hiding somewhere, watching the ugly visitors.

But of course, in the end, of course there was nothing life-threatening.

After all, Utgarde never thought of killing anyone.

But it's definitely not a pleasant experience.

In short, this guy just likes to jump repeatedly on the edge of the baseline.

As a result, he became famous - notorious, of course.

"Really, what's the difference between this character and Loki."

After turning around in the city of ash trees for a while, Hodder returned to the huge construction center that should be inhabited by giants.

He didn't care about the giant's reputation, it's just that his style of acting was too consistent, wouldn't he be found to be related or problematic?

Well, probably not really.

Who made Utgarde appear early?

Anyway, Loki wasn't dead then.

With weird thoughts, Hodder just stared at the open door.

Then, just as he stepped in, he noticed a giant log smashed down from the sky.

"???"
