With a sigh, Sato came out of the hut to meet about twenty different elves standing outside.
Each one had a face of curiosity that made him nervous, standing beside him were Giron and Divanchi.
They stood in a corner with a smile on their face, "Go on." Divanchi whispered to him.
Sato changed his focus to the group of elves standing before him before giving out another sigh.
"Hello there, my name is Sato Inugami." He voiced out.
The elves began murmuring amongst themselves, the slam of Giron's staff on the floor was what brought their composure back.
Sato couldn't help but give another sigh, 'What the hell am I even doing?' He thought to himself.
Before he could say anything again, Giron had already stepped to the front, to lend Sato assistance.
"I'm sure you all remembered the hero who saved us from the God Phoenix's rage, who heroically stood against a divine beast and came out victorious, the very same man that saved our village, he stands before you… the man who will soon become the leader of the village." Giron voiced out before pointing at Sato.
Nobody uttered a single word, silence took over as they all stared at Sato with confusion written all over their face.
"Uhmm…chief!" A female elf with long blonde hair called out with her hands raised.
Giron looked at her and shook his head, "Go on, speak." He uttered.
"I don't think it's wise to trust an outsider with the affairs of the village," She said with boldness written all over her face.
"Yes!" Another male elf yelled, "Even if he did defeat the God bird, putting him in charge is more than dangerous".
"Yeah!" They all began throwing their thoughts around, each one giving a reason why Sato should be the one leading.
The whole thing didn't surprise Sato all that much since he had already seen it coming, "At the end of the day they are still like humans, they wouldn't trust an outsider so easily." He muttered.
Divanchi just stood in the corner with her arms folded as she glanced at Sato from the side, 'Well, I wonder what you're going to do can't deny that I want to see how far this goes.' She smiled.
'Helix, can you do me a favor?' Sato said.
<<What do you need?>>
"The village state currently, can you tell me its current state in terms of a healthy community?" He inquired.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt<<Request confirmed…
I have discovered a few problems causing rapid health issues in this village.
First is the lack of food, they lack enough nutrients to sustain themselves and hence are unable to gain healthy lives.
I also detect the villages have only one source of water, used for both cooking and bathing, this is also a cause of their health issues, a plague is one of the reasons>>
'They drink and bath in the same water? no wonder they all look skinny, can you also give me a possible solution to fix the water problem?' He asked.
<<Affirmative>>
The elves had turned their personal opinion into a debate for who was right, while some were against the idea of Sato being ruler others were simply okay with it.
"He defeated a divine beast, his strength is beyond impressive!" A male elf yelled.
"What if he uses that power to threaten us one day, think you idiot." The blonde elf uttered.
"Who the hell are you calling an idiot?" The male elf frowned before tightening his fist.
"Enough you guy! this is not a way to act." Giron voiced out.
They all kept paused, and moved away from each other with their focus aimed at him, "We apologize" They muttered.
Giron then sighed, "This is proving more difficult than I thought." He muttered to himself.
"I've been quiet for long, I think it's time I said I few words or two" Divanchi grinned, she moved toward Sato before pointing at the elves.
"You all got some nerves, are you suggesting that I chose the wrong leader to watch over you?" She said with a serious look on her face.
"He tamed the god bird…" .
"Amazing"...
"Perhaps he can help us." They all started murmuring again.
"God bird!" Elena called out as she worked out of the elves' mist.
Divanchi immediately turned to her, "Stop calling me God bird, it's annoying… My name is Divanchi!" She uttered with her eyes closed and irritated.
"My apologies lady Davanchi, but it is true he defeated you in battle, what's to say he has the attribute of a leader… a good leader isn't a leader based on strength alone." She voiced.
"Right now, our home is falling apart, it's true our current chief hasn't gotten us out of it, but if not for him, things would have been far worse.
Can he save us from such predicament... I believe this is the true making of a leader" Elena bowed her head.
Divanchi looked at her for a while before sighing, "Okay then, so you want to test his leadership right?…".
"No lady, Divanchi I never said...".
"Fine, we'll do it then" Divanchi voiced out with a smile, She turned to face Sato, "Hey, Sato, can you stop-"
"Shut up for a sec" Sato shut her down as he looked around the village like he was searching for something.
Divanchi was hard shocked at that, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed about how she was cut short in front of the elves.
Sato changed his focus to Giron, "Take me to your drinking source." He requested.
Giron didn't bother asking why, he just smiled, "Of course, shall we?" He uttered and led the way.
The whole village followed also, wondering why the guest would want to see their water source.
"There it is." Giron pointed to the river that was running down from the opposite village.
Sato walked forward and bent down in front of the river before placing his hand inside, "Are these people crazy?" He muttered.
He couldn't even see his own reflecting in the water, it had also of bacteria inside and to top it off, different kind of parasite were sicking to the side of the river.
He then turned to face Giron while still bent, "Do you drink directly from this?" Sato asked.
"Yes we do, is there a problem?" Giron asked.
"Of course, there's a problem!" Sato yelled, "This river isn't pure… hell at this point it's considered a dump waste... why would you drink out of this?".
Giron gave a weak smile, "We know that, so we also make sure to boil it before consuming, it's the only water we have, we can't be picky".
"But that won't do, not when the water is this bad, did you not every try getting water from the other kingdoms or towns?" Sato sighed as he stood to his feet.
"Water would cost money, around 5 gold pieces to sustain the whole village, and we don't have that" Giron muttered.
'5 gold? Helix?' Sato questioned.
<<Notice, The money system is mostly used in bigger kingdoms, smaller villager tend to use trade as a means of marketing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe use of Gold, bronze and silver pieces was just recently known around villages.
10 bronze coin = 1 silver coin
10 silver coin = 1 gold coin>>
Sato sighed before looking at the faces of the elves, "No wonder they drink this, 5 gold looks too expensive" He uttered.
"Lord Sato?" Giron called out.
"One week," .
"Uhn?"
Sato looked to all the villagers with a determined expression, "I just need one week... I'll make a miracle happen." Sato said with his thumb aimed at his chest.
"What are you talking about?" Elena asked.
"I'll transform this village inside out, in one week, I'm pretty determined man." Sato said again, leaving the villagers to gasp at his plan.
Divanchi gave a proud smile before walking over to his side, "He meant give Us one week".
Sato looked at her and smiled back, "If between those one week, you feel I'm still not cut out to rule, then I'll gladly leave the village".
They all began looking at themselves, each one wondering what they should say, but that was until a dark elf came running it.
"Cheif! Chief!" The dark elf called out as he ran toward the gathering.
He fell to the ground with his face sliding against the rock before he finally came to a standstill.
"Deka, what happened? Why are you running?" Giron asked as he moved closer to him.
The rest of the villagers moved toward him too, leaving Sato to stand at the riverside alone with Divanchi.
"Lord Giron, we have to run!" The dark elf yelled.
"Calm down and tell me what happened-"
"The demons are here!" The dark elf yelled again, "And they are not going unless we give them another one! they want to destroy everything".
