Johan nodded in response. “Of course.”
Zeke continued, “If I had killed others to steal this spiritual water, I would have killed almost a hundred people by
now. Was there a matching number of deaths in the district? Plus, is it entirely possible that I alone was responsible
for killing them all?”
The Chieftain shook his head and replied, “Now that you put it that way, it seems unlikely. If you have truly collected
that spiritual water by the drop, do you have some special power to sense and uncover the location of spiritual
water?”
Johan's eyes lit up with excitement as he voiced his suspicions to Zeke.
If I know how to sense the location of spiritual water, I'm going to make a fortune!
Zeke dashed his hopes and said, “There's no special way to it. I just look through every nook and cranny for a
precious drop of spiritual water. Chieftain, if you don't have any more questions, may I exchange resources with
you now?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJohan appeared disappointed as he said, “All right. Let's exchange resources. Are you sure you want to exchange
your spiritual water for twenty pounds of meat?”
Nodding firmly, Zeke replied, “Yes.”
“You must be thinking of becoming a Centurion if you're in such a rush to use up your hundred drops of spiritual
water.”
Zeke nodded in acknowledgement.
However, that was not the only reason for his actions.
He had a more important reason for exchanging all one hundred drops of spiritual water for meat.
Johan added, “I'll be honest with you, young man. It's not that easy to become a Centurion. Using a hundred drops
of spiritual water is the easy part. You also need to defeat a Centurion.”
“Oh, I'm not too familiar with how powerful Centurions are,” came Zeke's reply.
“Most of them are Archduke Class warriors. Some of them are even stronger. Based on my observations, you're
just a better-than-average fighter. You wouldn't stand a chance against any Archduke Class warrior.”
The Chieftain had happened to observe Zeke fighting while performing his surveillance on the district outskirts.
He concluded that Zeke's abilities were that of a normal warrior. While that was more than enough against normal
people like Phagos and Daley, Zeke was nothing short of dead meat if he faced off against an Archduke Class
warrior.
Zeke answered, “I enjoy a good challenge. That's what keeps things exciting. Still, I appreciate your advice.”
Johan nodded. “You're welcome. I'll get the meat for you now.”
Soon enough, Johan exchanged twenty pounds of meat with Zeke.
Greed danced across the Chieftain's eyes as he watched Zeke leave.
He was certain that Zeke had some special method of finding spiritual water.
If I can pick up his method and collect enough spiritual water, I might actually stand a chance of fighting for the
Camp Master position! I must use this opportunity to investigate our district's newcomer closely.
Meanwhile, Yannick, Yoshua, Murphy, and the others eagerly awaited Zeke's return to the base camp.
They knew he had set off to exchange meat for them, and every one of them had been dreaming of its delicious
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtaste since the last time they had tasted meat.
They had never imagined their wish would come true so quickly.
Everyone patted themselves on the back for choosing Zeke.
Finally, Zeke returned to base camp.
His team was wide-eyed with shock upon seeing him striding toward them with a chunk of meat weighing at least
twenty pounds.
Twenty pounds of meat was the stuff of dreams.
They had thought Zeke would only manage to come back with one or two pounds of meat.
Some people began crying in gratitude.
They could die happy after gorging themselves on a meaty feast.
Zeke threw the meat at Yannick's and Yoshua's feet before declaring, “Here. Clean this up and stew it. Portion out
five pounds to share with everyone. Leave the rest of the meat to continue stewing.”
Minerva wiped the saliva at the corner of her mouth and said, “Master, two pounds of meat is enough for all of us
to share. Y-You should keep the rest for yourself.”
