Rebirth: Lord
/ Rebirth: Lord 12 Chapter 13: Movement 2
As they approached, The elder performed a gesture for them to keep silent before taking them to a large wooden building, which probably served as some sort of temple for the village, The youth and his group were arranged in what seemed to be the best chairs in the place.
Though with some discomfort, the elder, two more men and a red-haired boy not older than seventeen, took a seat in front of the group.
Both the soldiers, as well as the mages who served as escorts, refused to take a seat and in their place, they limited themselves to mount guard on the doors and windows of the place.
"as I mentioned before Master Ye, I don't think it can be possible." The Elder said exasperatedly, partly due to the insensate request from the Ye clan recently.
The Youth's name is Ye Feng, right hand man to the Young Master Ye Rong from the Ye clan. Right now, The Young Master was trying to assimilate the surrounding Unaffiliated villages close to the clan in preparation for the Rebellion. Only 3 villages have left them hanging with their response.
He could imagine that prior to this meeting, the villagers had had their own meeting with Ye clan as a central theme. However, he could only guess at what was said at that meeting. The reality though was that He was overestimating the intelligence of the villagers. They had not held a meeting, they simply left everything in the hands of this elder.
It was impossible to blame him for such a mistake, despite his vast knowledge of the happenings of Setaroth thanks to his fondness for Information handling, he was unconsciously unable to accept that what he read from his report was absolutely true. The villagers were that and only that, simple men and women whose main concern was to survive the day to day, any problem too complex, they preferred to leave it in the hands of another, that is how primitive feudalism was born.
"All right, as you can see, we are not gonna force you but when the chips are down and you lack the protection at the time, don't come running to us then."
The old man, like his companions, smiled uncomfortably at Ye feng's words. Far from the intimidation caused by the escorts, the villagers seemed mostly concerned about the unusual Threat.
The only thing that prevented the elder and others from convincing themselves that the idea in their minds was a reality was Raven's gaze.
A cold look that seemed to see through their souls. A firm voice devoid of the faintest trace of empathy, and the irrational sensation that it projected.
Although it was difficult for him to understand the intentions of the Young Man in front of him, the old man, determined to offer him everything in his hands, replied in as much detail as the nervousness allowed.
"I understand."
"To the south, about two days' walk is the walled city of Caard belonging to the Wu clan, to the west, about four days' journey is the Fort Zoc under the Wang Clan. To the east, about four days walk from here you will find Fort Geki which belong to the Shi clan... you are the closest to Each of this forces and the first to be raided in this vicinity".
The list kept piling up one after the other making the villagers complexions to pale.
"And the north? is the Ye clan...hence we intend fortifying our boundaries while taken in those who are willing" Ye feng Continued.
"M... Master Ye, May I ask what is in store for us if we were to accept the offer...we already know our part is to offer men as soldiers and we are to pay tributes as well but what do we expect from you?" After a short while the Elder responded.
Although the old man's nervousness did not diminish in the least.
"What aside from protection would you expect...?" The Youth stated in disdain.
For a couple of seconds, the old man lost his breath to what he just Heard.
Although disappointed, He chose to say nothing Because this protection was in the best interest of the whole village. He deliberated for a few seconds before responding hesitantly "Fine, we'll agree to your terms"
Hearing this Ye Feng simply smiled before stating "It's good that you understand, We'll be sending down some men to take care of your defense. Meanwhile, I expect that you gather the young men like it was requested by Young Master Ye and send them to the Household."
The Elder watch him leave with his group, there's nothing he could do at this point, A disaster had already started brewing and no one could avoid it.
Ye feng took one last look at the village as one of his Guards brought their Horses,"Quickly!, lets return before Nightfall...you don't want to be outside by then and so do I. Haaa!!" He finally said as they all left at full speed.
"Yes Sir!!"
...
Same time, Northwest of Nezex.
[You found the Deathly hollows]
[Knowledge – Geography +1]
[Knowledge – Geography (Deathly hollows)]: Somber and desolate. It's a rather complex terrain. There will often be some terrifying creatures roaming about in this kind of environment.
Lu tong stopped at the entrance of the area, silently comparing the path with the one in his own memories to see if he went off-trail and also viewing his now updated map that showed the way back to the cave. He needed to return back there by nightfall, no one likes to experience nightfall in Setaroth. Best not be out in the open, they always said.
Besides, there is something that he needs to do in the Area called Nezex.
He was quite lucky on the way here. Apart from a few ignorant and easy to slaughter goblins, he didn't meet any notable monsters.
This was due to the fact that Hall Mountain Range was relatively safe.
However, the Deathly hollows were different. That place not only had all kinds of nomadic races living inside, but also quite a few criminals and monsters. This place was very suited to hiding and as a result there were some strongholds here, gatherings of numerous fugitives from the surrounding cities and Forts.
Regardless of where they are from, all rogues would find their way to this region in Setaroth.

He had just closed his status window, when suddenly an enraged grey scaled Bear roared at him while knocking down trees.
The bear angrily roared, stood in full length attempting to intimidate this human that was standing before him. But it was ineffective.
'Troublesome…' Lu tong shook his head and stared at the creature. This creature was one of the most commonly used as a spirit beast for warrior classed players. It boosts both strength and stamina there by giving more health, The Thundering roar skill that comes with it is a good debuff skill that causes few seconds of disorientation for the Target. Warrior players tended to abuse this skill despite its long cool down of 5 minutes.
Imagine getting Ganked*by 2 or more warriors with this skill, if your not able to dodge its trajectory which was in front of the user or guard against sound attacks, then you're finished.
