Chapter 110 (1/2)
The Reincarnated Princess' Decision (3)
On the athered in the centre of the village, confused and riled up at the sudden call I was observing them from a distance
How did it end up like this?
I tormented myself with the question that had been stuck in ht
The chief's plan ithout a doubt, a riskythat the situation was crawling up to its boiling point, and considering the Kua's reserved nature, we could only push through with heavy-handed methods But still, this plan that ere about to launch was unnerving, to say the least
Anyone would hate being lied to, and to traht reasons, would undoubtedly leave a bad taste afterwards Seeiven to the situation at hand instead of the village's happiness this time
It was as Wolf said, 'no one would be happy with a lie like that'
I glanced up at him as he stood next to lare that it ran shi+vers down my spine Lily stood on the opposite side with her face full of concern She gave e told me she was plenty worried Soh my face
I couldn't find the words to return her kind gesture so ht naturally dropped to my feet Shortly after, however, I involuntarily pulled h the crowd
Uneasiness was slowly spreading The people's eyes focused on their village chief in front of them
”Hey chief, what's all this ruckus so early in thequickly shut his h when the chief held up his hand Chilling silence returned to the cal once more
The chief approached the centre of the square and scanned the area I could feel the goosebuer the silence dragged on, the tenser I felt, and the ”
I was caught couard when he finally broke the silence Soers were coreeting
”This shi+tty father…” Wolfhis head
”Sorry to call upon all of you so early in theI know this is probably the busiest time for the ladies, so when I've finished what I have to say, you can go back and kick your husbands' teeth in for sitting there while doing nothing I'm with you all the way on this one”
The ladies started to giggle nonstop while the ive us a break' and started to laugh as well Everyone was relaxed That was probably his aim from the start
”I know you're not too fond of stories fro I can just sum up easily, so please hear hter and continued on with 'this concerns the future of h, not to the point of being stressed, but rather concentrated I was impressed at how the chief was able to slowly break the story in
”The origin of the Kua Clan started about six hundred years ago with just one woeable in the science of row herbs in a matter of seconds and rid anyone of injuries and diseases in the blink of an eye”
Lily had told me this story before
But since there was no literature left from that time, there probably wasn't enerations with only word-of- said that, I didn't think it was all a lie either Soerated, yes, but I believe so similar did happen The real identity of this woe rather than an all-powerful Goddess
Iinjuries, then Michael could do it too, right? And she probably had the earth attribute since she was able to grow herbs and plants as well
”Our clan inherited her blood and had continued it ever since However, the power of the radually faded away and was finally lost about one hundred years ago There was no longer any heir who possessed the power of the miracle”
A thin yet oppressive silence fell
”So why should we keep our blood to ourselves any longer?”
”Chief-!”
When they couldn't stand it any longer, more than fifty people raised their voices back at the chief But rather than an outcry, it see to him 'Please don't take this road,' they said However, the chief slowly shook his head, clearly showing his stance on the matter
”The time e avert our eyes from the truth has finally co stuck in our own customs”
”…”
”It was said that back when our clan prospered, more than one thousand souls lived their lives in these lands Noe number less than two hundred Not to mention the number of children decreases by the year Our destruction is on the horizon”
