Additionally, he will also do his best to improve their living conditions. With the knowledge he has, he will relay them to Arthur and Rosa so that when the time for him to leave or whatever, this people would remain safe and secure, be it their real or not.

”Oh, working had I see.”
Vendrick said as he saw Arthur and Rosa sparring fiercely.
At a glance, anyone would think that these two were actually trying to kill each other. The battle intent in their eyes were visible and seeming inextinguishable. In fact however, this is just a normal spar to them.
The two heard his voice and the fierceness on their eyes melted like snow under the summer.
”You're back!” Arthur greeted.
”Did you kill it?” Rosa asked.
”Yep, I did.” Vendrick answered. ”I'll be entering seclusion later, I'll leave the tribe to you guys.”
Arthur and Rosa nodded, telling Vendrick that there's nothing to worry about and that he can leave everything to them.
As he was about to enter his hut, Vendrick remembered something.
”Ah! That's right.” The Spear of Wisdom appeared on his hand and he handed it over to Arthur.
”F-for me?”
”No.” Vendrick ruthlessly shattered Fatty's dreams. ”I want you to stab that at the center of the tribe.”
”Eh?” Arthur was confused. ”Why?”
”Stop asking questions and just do it.” Vendrick waved his hand and sent both of them away.
The two were visibly confused at first but they ended up going anyways. Since Vendrick wasn't keen on explaining, then there's no need to ask. It's not like he's up to something bad anyway. That's just how he is.
The two made way towards the center of the tribe with Vendrick's spear on hand. Arthur searched for a good spot to stab it in and he found it after searching shortly. There was a mound there which looked like the perfect place to do so.
Since it was decided, Arthur stopped hesitating and stabbed the spear onto the mound.
*Buzz!!*
Shockingly, the moment he stabbed the spear down, a flash of blue light erupted from the spear and a strong buzzing sound echoed on their ears. It was disorienting but didn't hurt. When their senses returned to normal, both Arthur and Rosa was shocked to see the changes they caused.
A blue done, transparent but unbelievably solid, encased the entire tribe. Forget about Arthur and Rosa, everybody on the tribe was surprised to see such a spectacle.
Not even minutes after the dome appeared, they could already feel the changes occurring to their surroundings.
The air was purer, sunlight turned more gentle, colors became more vibrant and the energy was swiftly being purified and concentrated. Everybody felt like their spirits were being lifted by an invisible force. They never felt so comfortable and at peace before.
”T-this is...” Arthur was gobsmacked, so too was Rosa.
”The whole tribe is...the hideout?” Rosa felt like she was dreaming.
Both of them were aware about the strange magic at the hideout, for some unknown reason everything inside that place was just better. They initially thought that it'd be nice if the atmosphere within the whole tribe was like this. Never did they imagine that Vendrick would actually do just that.
”This is what you call a Formation.” Vendrick's voice echoed on their ears but he wasn't physically there. ”I'll explain it in more detail later but basically, it's just makes this place infinitely better. You two do your thing, I'll be sealing the hideout for a bit since I'll enter seclusion. I don't know how long this will last but makes yourselves comfortable.”
And just like that, the tribe's living conditions were once again made better by a simple move from Vendrick.
