Chapter 815: Conversation (1/2)

Sam and the tribe head are sitting together. He let his beasts out for a while. Even Mia.

There is a lake nearby and Mia is having a great time in the open water after a long while.

Dia, Raiju, Sky, Yanwu, Ape, and even the shadow mice are having a good time as they interacted with the baby cubs.

The most fun is always for the panthers. They are now as big as their mother now and they barely reached the Nascent stage. They are interacting with their peers in the bear tribe and they all are interacting with the cubs innocently.

It is quite ironic when we consider the number of people Sam and the people killed over time when they are still Nascent stage.

”You want to talk?”

Sam asked as he looked at the head bear.

When the bear is looking for Raiju, Sam said once again.

”I can understand the beast tongue. Don't worry.”

{You can understand?}

”Yes, it is a gift I have. So, what is up with the war with these monkeys?”

{First, I want you to answer why you are here? It has been years since we saw a human this deep}

”Well, I am actually in search of your tribe. You see those beasts, the golden sunbird, the sky sovereign roc, the Raiju, that horse, they are all part of my family. I want to add another one here. So, I came to see if I can convince or befriend one of you. But I encountered a war here.”

{Befriend? More like enslave.}

”You can talk to my friends. Speak as much as you like and ask them if they are enslaved or captured. I share a part of them with me.”

Sam spoke and activated his bloodlines one by one.

”We are bound by a special bond. All the power I have is given to me by them. They are the ones that made me who I am and they are the ones that stayed with me along the path. I am not saying I never enslave beasts, I do, but not every beast, only some of them in special cases.”

{Why would you want another beast? Their bloodlines are all superior to ours, even that mouse has a superior bloodline than us. What do you need us for?}

”They have what you don't and you have what they don't. I do care about the bloodline superiority but that is not all.”

{What would you do if I send one with you?}

”That is too hard to explain. Anyway, I am the only one who is answering all the questions why don't you answer some of mine?”

{What do you want to know?}

”Why the war?”

{Resources.}

”What?”

{I don't know if you know this, the Orangutans have a high reproduction rate and their population increases easily. Their natural predators are nowhere near this area.

The forest here is actually having a too high a level of spiritual energy and it is extremely useful for the growth of the trees.

But that also brought another problem, the energy is too chaotic and not too refined and this caused the lower level fruits that are suitable for the diet of the cubs and young beasts are unable to grow here. They are dying of overnutrition.

This caused the Orangutans to invade many territories, they already destroyed a few tribes and barely any beasts survive their attacks. There is a tribe that was even driven to extinction.

They are pests, but their affinity with the forest is just too much. Only we could rival them. We tried unifying, but they are going against the newborn and others. We actually killed half of them by now because of our combined efforts.

Because of their reckless consumption, many of the fruit patches were destroyed and there were only a few patches left and those are in their territory.

It has been hard to survive.}

”Can you defend this area successfully?”

{We don't know. But we can try.}

”How about I help you solve that problem and let me have a chance to convince one of you to come with me?”

{If you can help us with that, you wouldn't even need to ask and try, they would willingly come with you.}
