Chapter 11: Your Vige Has Reached level 2!
I cant believe it, theres really a vige out here
It was only recently established and with only just three people. For the meantime, I stand as this viges leader. I am Luke.
Ahh, vige chief-sama, please excuse thete introduction. I am Belrith. And for the moment, I stand as this groups representative.
Berlith-san was a man who seemed to be in his mid-thirties.
He had signs of being muscr, but perhaps because of malnutrition, he was sticks and bones at the moment.
Not just him either.
The entire group seemed to be starving.
After a brief discussion with Selen and Millia, we agreed that the group was not dangerous and that we should invite them into the vige.
Once inside, we talked to them some more. We had confirmed that they were indeed refugees.
The reason there were so few adult men was that they were forcefully conscripted.
And the reason there were almost no elderly among the group was that most of them insisted on staying in their vige so as to not burden the group on their journey. Old people were unlikely to be conscripted or be turned into ves, so the group reluctantly agreed.
Belrith-sans father, who was their viges leader, also stayed behind. So, Belrith-san took it upon himself to lead the escaping group in his fathers stead.
After that, we wondered aimlessly until we reached this wastnd. And right when our water and food supply had run out, we found your ce.
I see ahm, well, we havent harvested our crops yet, and our own food supply might not be enough for all of youbut dont worry, well do whatever we can to prepare food for you all. Oh, and as for water, we have a well here, so feel free to drink from it as much as you want.
R-really? Thank you very much!
In addition to looking like theyre starving, the group also looked thirsty. To help with that, I showed where the well was. In response, they all rushed toward it.
<em>Hmm, is one well not enough? I have spare points, so why not build another one?</em>
<<20 vige points will be consumed to build a well. Proceed? *{Yes}||{No}>>
I selected Yes.
Everyone, feel free to use this other well!
Really?
Was there a well there earlier?
Either way, Im grateful!
While the people were quenching their thirst, Milia cooked the boar from Selens hunt yesterday.
Our remaining stock of wheat was used up as well.
Its not much, but please have some.
Ohhhh!
Maybe it was because they were famished, but the refugees made all that food disappear almost instantly.
We are truly grateful for this kindness you showed us. Were not sure how to properly thank you beyond these words
Their hunger sated for now, Belrith-san uttered words of thanks while tears fell from his eyes.
As for the others, they put their palms together as though they were trying to worship us.
Regardless, their crisis wasnt over just yet.
For their group to live here in this wastnd by themselves wouldnt just be hard, it was nigh impossible.
<<Make them vigers?>>
As though reading my mind, some text appeared at the edge of my vision.
ahm, Belrith-san
Yes, vige chief-sama?
Would you like to live here in this vige?
Eh!?
Belrith-san waspletely surprised by my proposal.
To tell you the truth, we can use extra sets of hands. As you can see, we have fields with crops that are on the verge of being ready to be harvested, but harvesting them all should be a lot of hard work for just the three of us. Moreover, it will be too much for us to eat.
H-however, we have a lot of children in our groupthe workforce we can offer might not meet your expectations
Even then, Id say dont worry about it. Lets just lend a hand whenever the other needs it.
OhThank you, thank you very much
In reaction to my words, Belrith-san cried out loud as he profusely thanked me.
Right after that though, lines of texts appeared in my vision one after the other.
