My Farm System: Reaching The Top In The Parallel Earth!-Chapter 220 220: New Members
"Concentrate... concentrate... concentrate..." Rezen muttered as his eyes stared at both his fingers and a pot on top of his table
Currently, Rezen is trying his best to mobilize his mana. He is still affected by the laws of the earth realm but the effect was slowly vanishing
Rezen could control his mana to a small extent but the more he trained using his mana once more, the faster he could have access to magic once more
As he is already training his mana control, Rezen decided to make his training productive
In front of him was a table filled with wooden pots that he asked the tribesmen to create. With his status in the tribe, simple things like this would be given to him upon request
Most of the pots have various plants in them. The seeds were planted by Rezen just recently but thanks to the miraculous effects of his mana, they already grew
The more mana Rezen poured into the plants, the faster they grew. Rezen's training is killing two birds with one stone. Not only could he regain his mana control, but he could also expedite the growth of normal plants
"Huff... huff! This is too tiring!" Rezen muttered while wiping the sweat from his forehead
Although he is physically and mentally exhausted, a smile still formed on Rezen's forehead
"Salty Grass, Black Pepper Flowers, Chili Leaves, Garlic, Onions, and many more. With these, I could finally have a decent meal" Rezen said feeling satisfied
He is tired of eating roasted meat and potatoes that don't have any seasoning. The tribe after all is backward and as long as they can fill their stomachs, nothing else matters
While Rezen could adapt to the situation, he would still naturally prefer tasty foods due to how he grew up
Fortunately, although there were differences in appearance and the way they grew, this realm still has plants that could grow seasonings similar to the ones in Rezen's previous realm
If Rezen were to cook delicious meals using the seasoning, no doubt that the tribe would love him even more
"I'm so tired, I need to rest. Since I was not able to explore the forest last night because of the side effects of my Eagle Eye Potion, I must sleep now and explore the forest again later"
With that, Rezen decided to sleep for now but before he could do so, he heard the loud voice of a certain someone
"Rezen! Come here! I'll be your shield!"
This loud person is none other than Stone Head that directly entered Rezen's hut and scooped him up from the ground
"A-ah? What's happening?" Rezen asked in surprise. This bastard... why does he like carrying Rezen like he was a sack of rice?
Remembering the time that Rezen's buttocks were fully exposed thanks to Stone Head filled him with fury
'This bastard! And I was kind enough not to steal his fortune aura!' Rezen thought through gritted teeth
Ivy already explained to him how beneficial the fortune aura of the heavens' blessed to him but in the end, he still decided not to steal the one from Stone Head
The fortune aura of Stone Head if used by Rezen would give him access to magic again. It could also be absorbed by the farm and the required mana stones to repair it would lessen
No matter how tempting it was, Rezen decided not to steal the fortune aura. Even if he recovers his magic, he is still no match against a Junior Mage. If he were to use the fortune aura to help the farm recover, the fortune aura of Stone Head is not enough for the farm to be usable again
If Stone Head lose his fortune aura then he would lose the blessing of the heavens, and he would return to being an ordinary Junior Mage of a very weak tribe
However, as long as Stone Head still has his fortune aura, there is little to no chance that he would die and his presence would ensure the tribe's prosperity and safety
Stealing the fortune aura of Stone Head would bring more danger than benefit to Rezen. He would only steal Stone Head's fortune aura if it was enough to make the farm recover but sadly it wasn't enough
"There are people from a destroyed tribe that is going to join our tribe today. The other side also has one Junior Mage, which means that they would have high status in the tribe. Rezen, you can't use any magic, right? There's a chance that they might bully you since they have a Junior Mage and I'm going to make sure that will not happen!" Stone Head said righteously and Rezen raised his brows
"Joining the tribe? Something like that is possible?" Rezen can't help but ask and Stone Head looked at him as if he was an alien
"Of course! Tribes get destroyed every day or even if they aren't destroyed, their population would decrease. The remnants of destroyed tribes joining other tribes are common! Even my grandfather was previously a member of another tribe that was destroyed before he joined the Waterside Tribe!" He explained, giving Rezen enlightenment
This answered the question that was previously on Rezen's mind. He hasn't been in the Waterside for a long time but he already witnessed many deaths
The tribe originally do not have a high population but that further decreases due to various reasons
Turns out that the reason why the Waterside Tribe still exists is because of this system!
If a tribe ceases to exist, the surviving members would decide to join another tribe for survival
Not only would this ensure the survival of the remnant members, but it would also solve the population problem of the Waterside Tribe!
Stone Head brought Rezen outside the huts of the tribe where the remnants of other tribes could be seen and they look exactly as Rezen expected
They are also only wearing beast skin on their waists and most of them have varying levels of injuries
Their faces were pale and their eyes were either teary or soulless which was understandable
Not only did they lose their homes, they also lose their families
Rezen doesn't know how many members this tribe originally has but they are now down to merely fifteen members
The only good thing was that aside from one of them, all the other fourteen are not too young nor too old. They might have been chosen by the tribe to save since they are not totally weak but they still have the potential to grow and become a Junior Mage
"We are from the Yusura Tribe. Last night, a beast tide destroyed our tribe. We won't ask much, we just want to be a member of your tribe, let us protect each other" f𝓇𝘦e𝑤𝘦𝚋𝒏૦ѵℯ𝒍.c𝐨𝒎
"We have five women here, all of them are beautiful and are also quite skillful at using magic. If the males of your tribe want to, you can court our women and they would have children with whoever they chose" the old man said
From the looks of it, this old man might be the leader of these people and possibly the Junior Mage that Stone Head spoke off
'I'm once again reminded that I am now living in a tribal society' Rezen thought
As the tribe's healer, he is quite famous and a bachelor to be sought for. There were females in the tribe that tried to make a move on him but he tactfully declined them
Now, Rezen is witnessing women being offered as if they were commodities and he was quite uncomfortable
"We are in need of new members and we'll gladly accept you in our tribe but you must abide by our rules and never harm any of us. We will become one tribe, one family, I hope that you'll get along. If not then..."
As if on cue, the Chief wielded her magic wand as she slowly created a magic circle around her. Stone Head also did the same thing
This is a show of power!
"The boy on my shoulder is our tribe's precious healer. He is very skilled and no matter what you learn or hear, I won't tolerate anyone bullying or harming him in any way, do you understand that?" Stone Head said with a harsh tone
I'll ignore him calling me a boy for now since he's not bad' Rezen thought in satisfaction
While Rezen is perfectly chill, the prospective new members of the tribe is different
Since they are the recipient of the Chief and Stone Head's pressure, all of them were trembling including the Junior Mage
"T-two Junior Mages that learned magic spells!" The old man muttered nervously. Someone like him is not a much of these people as he hasn't learned or created a magic spell
If he were to have evil thoughts, any of these two Junior Mages could definitely kill him with their magic
He has no choice but to bow his head to them
