Only the five tribes were left in the cave now, and the leaders of the four other parties were looking at the three members of the triumvirate attentively They had been asked to stay for a bit after the others left
Now that only they had remained, the head scholar said ”If you want to let your scholars exa to exchange the its poithout being affected by the corruption”
”We will meet back here after we'll formulate a reasonable plan with hi the rest of the leaders, and concluding the gathering

Five days later Within one of the rooms of the castle carved in the cave's rocky wall
Daniel, the three est warriors were standing in front of a large table
On this table, was an old fashi+oned map, which had been made and updated by the tribe itself due to the lack of maps inherited by the civilization antecedent to the corruption
”This is the entire prohibited territory?” Asked Daniel while indicating an area that encompassed two third of the area included within the es is near the border of the area, and is only at a full week at running speed from here” Responded the head hunter which had encountered Daniel into the abandoned city first
After noticing how close the ain admiration for the system's effect 'Karma X Luck'
The fact that he had appeared so close to a place which he believed to be his best, and possibly only chance of joining back with his friends and finding a way back home, was true luck
”The place is definitely empty More than once we've noticed that the monsters kept their distance fros area is occupied by a large number of monsters, which we are technically able to face, but not for long As soon as the fight starts, in a er aht and join our enerim tone
Daniel turned to look at the three members of the triumvirate, and said with a serious tone ”You have to allow ainst other tribe's warriors, and your hunters are trained in hunting o there, I need more power to defend hold Even if you were to increase your power, a single additional powerful person would est of warriors with a firm tone
Daniel's requests to be allowed to cultivate had become more and more frequent in the past couple of days, and while they could understand that he was currently too weak to e to thethat Daniel ht try to abandon them there
This diffidence was born out of a history of betrayals, tricks, and cruelty that had shaped their tribalistic society
Before Daniel could coest of warriors added ”Maybe you can instruct our warriors in your ways of fighting Or give them decent weapons That would be much more helpful than your support in battle”
”Fine” Responded Daniel in resignation
”What do you think we'll find in the stronghold?” Asked the chief scholar to hi fire to entire cities, flying in the air, turning landscapes into frozen lands There has to be so related to the use of the natural mana there If not a way to tap into the essence of the spiritual plain, there has to at least be some lead on how they did it” Said Daniel with a matter-of-fact tone
”How do you know that all the material hasn't been destroyed? It's been thousand of years since the stronghold has been inhabited” Said the chief hunter with doubt
Daniel turned to look back at her, and said in response ”The natural essences of this world, due to the corruption, isn't working properly The reason why your cities are still in perfect conditions after thousands of years, is due to theof time I don't expect you to understand this, as you have no knowledge of mana”
Daniel's words were true These people had lived all their lives in this corrupted world, and had no idea of ind, clean water, and fertile soil were The difference was only evident to hi?” Asked Daniel to the members of the triumvirate
”Four tribes have decided to join our cause They will give us a thousand of their strongest warriors each, while the rest of the population will evacuate the caves and hide in close by shelters as per protocol” Responded the chief hunter
”What protocol?” Asked Daniel in confusion
”Monster attack Or war between tribes”

During the folloeek, various parties of powerful warriors arrived to the territory of the tribe
Once there, they would meet Daniel and becoout of the alliance, but luckily, Daniel was always able to convince them the same way he had convinced the three leaders of the tribe Through speech, and demonstration of his peculiar powers and circumstances
For a full month, Daniel trained the powerful warriors in the ways he found to be the ainst monsters Thanks to his incredible ability in combat, he was able to simulate the random pattern of attacks of which a hters, there was none who had a power below the head hunter's, and that her raer than Daniel
Unfortunately, despite their raer, none of them was able to defeat Daniel unless theythe sparring sessions
After an intensive nized the difficulty of increasing the abilities of the warriors beyond the basics, so, he had no choice but to conclude their training
