The Dravaks' first reaction was to laugh at Maxime's words.
"That little human is so arrogant and funny!" muttered one of the ordinary Dravaks forming part of the encirclement.
"He wouldn't even be able to take on a Dravak child, I'm sure." continued another right next to him, also laughing.
In their minds, humans could compete with them, only thanks to Eternity.
It's important to make a point of history here, which Maxime was also aware of as a human being.
All the races of the Omega Universe were extremely jealous of humans.
The Omega universe was the universe in which both humans and Pirans lived.
And they were up against the Delta universe, from which the Dravaks came in particular.
Excluding Eternity, in terms of ranking, humans would only be in the lower-middle range in terms of fighting power in the Omega universe.
