The answer
Chapter 288 · updated
Calgara got mad at Noland because Noland killed the giant snake the Shandians worshipped as a god. The villagers immediately panicked and blamed the outsiders for committing deicide, shouting demands for blood sacrifice to appease the deity's wrath. ch. 288, p. 1 Kalgara confronted Noland directly during their clash, accusing him of destroying sacred traditions with the words "PURGING EVEN THE TINIEST... BUT IMPORTANT STEPS OF PROGRESS!?" ch. 288, p. 3 He further condemned the foreigners for trampling Shandian history and killing a god in cold blood, even while acknowledging their medicine. ch. 290, p. 14 This led the entire village to turn hostile overnight, with Kalgara declaring he never wanted to see Noland again. ch. 290, p. 15 The conflict escalated into open battle as Kalgara insisted Noland atone to the gods. ch. 288, p. 3
