36 Chapter 36

In the territory between the Esvert and the Guburg villages, teams from both factions were working together to create a new village from which they would explore the areas around it and exploit them to their advantage.

This new village was named Oylam. As it was still in its early phase of construction, there were very few permanent buildings, so most people lived in tents.

Even though there were a few more new villages that were created around the landmass, for some reason, this one was experiencing a lot of problems compared to the others.

At that moment, everyone in the village was trying to escape the central area of the village, as inside one of the tents, a couple was having a heated discussion that could be easily heard from outside.

"Your only work was to protect the village or at least let us know if we needed to evacuate the area before anything happened, and you can't even do something like that!" Agathe began to criticize the other person's actions while crossing her arms.

Agathe was an Esvert cultivator—a pretty young one, in fact. She was the living image of an Esvert cultivator with her white hair and dark skin, and while she wasn't very tall, she wasn't small either. Thanks to her incredible talent and fast learning pace, even though she was only 19, she had managed to become in charge of the mission for the construction and planning of this new village, which was a very important task and showed how much the higher-ups of the Evert village expected of her.

Suddenly, the other person hit with his hand a small table that was placed inside the tent, breaking it completely.

"Hey, you know as well as I do that a stampede like that doesn't occur without a reason. Even with all my men, we wouldn't be capable of stopping those beasts unscratched, so I think you should be happy that no one has died. " Naz replied, while the veins in his neck began to bulge because of his fury.

Naz was a Guburg cultivator, and he was pretty big. Even in the Guburg village, which was known because they were very tall, Naz had always been taller than those of his age, and now that he was an adult, he was a tower made of muscles, and his head was covered by a blue mane. Even though he was older than Agathe, he was still considered a genius at the age of 22. Because those from the Guburg Village were not the best at organizing and planning, it was decided that he would support Agathe using the military strength that he and the other Guburg cultivators that had come with him represented, mainly occupying the tasks of hunting or the defense of the village.

The reason for their discussion was a sudden stampede that came from a nearby mountain that they had yet to explore. They didn't know why, but for some reason, hundreds of mutated beasts and even magical beasts began to escape from that area. Thanks to the rapid reaction of every cultivator in the area, they managed to repel most of the animals without suffering human losses, losing only some of the progress on the construction of the village that they had made in the last few days.

"No, I'm not happy because we don't know what the hell happened there. What if that's something that happens periodically? What if the next month, another stampede occurs, but this time its numbers have doubled? Or even tripled? The village will be destroyed, and we can't be sure that no one will die the next time. " Agathe's face began to redden as she shouted.

"Well, thank Heaven that that's pretty easy to solve, "Naz replied to Agathe in a mocking tone. "Tomorrow I will form a team and we will explore the area where those beasts have come from. We will go, find the reason for the stampede, kill or destroy the reason for the stampede, and come back so we can sleep comfortably in our beds that same night. See? Easy. You don't need to shout like you are crazy to get things done. "

"The problem is that things are yet to be done, stupid asshole. The lives of our people are at risk, and you aren't taking the situation seriously. How am I not supposed to shout?!" Agathe continued shouting even more.

"Wow, I heard that Esvert girls had bad humor, but this exceeds my expectations," Naz said, while a giggle escaped from his mouth.

"Don't you worry, you are exactly how Guburg men are described in our village: barbaric, stupid, and annoying monkies. And don't think I will simply let you go to that mountain and do whatever you want. I will personally lead a team of fighters to assist your team and make sure the job is well done and that the danger is over. " Agathe said, while she finally managed to calm down a bit.

"Do whatever you want. After all, you are in charge here. " Naz said while winking at her.

"Get out of here now!" Agathe shouted again while pointing at the door.

Following Agathe's orders, Naz left the tent while smiling and quickly met with his team to plan the next day's mission.
