Chapter 240 - Netherfrost Blizzard Realm
"Chief, where is your courage, your majesty, your indomitable will to face against all odds? I thought you were going to lead us into conquering this new world?" a wolf-man spoke.
"What indomitable will? Face against all odds? Conquer the world?" Chief Fenrigos repeated before he cussed, "F*ck, can't you see there's a living and breathing Aura God right in front of us? Do you want us to get the entire tribe wiped out and become sinners?"
"Conquering is too hard. It's better to pass that reins to someone else. We only wanted a better home for our tribe to prosper anyway. So long as that condition is met, it doesn't if we submit to a force stronger than ourselves."
Chief Fenrigos spoke reasonably.
"Oh? Well, what do you know? You're pretty reasonable, after all," Albion chuckled softly while continuing to pat Chief Fenrigos on the shoulders like a tamed pet.
"If you devote yourself to working for me diligently, I will naturally not let you suffer a loss and may even reward you handsomely, allowing you to take a step further in your cultivation. As for your people, they will never have to starve again."
"Yes, my Lord!" Chief Fenrigos lowered his head submissively and said, "That is all I hope for. If my Lord can follow through with your words, I, Fenrigos, will be your sword and shield until death!"
A trace of weariness could be sensed in Chief Fenrigos's voice.
Perhaps it was due to the long years of watching countless young ones die to the cold, but even the toughest of towers will eventually collapse from all the chipping.
"Words are meaningless. Prove it with your actions instead," Albion simply stated, indifferently and unmoved.
It would be weird to trust the words of a person, who's face changes so quickly due to external pressure.
Nevertheless, Chief Fenrigos nodded, "Yes, my Lord!"
Not long after Chief Fenrigos threw a glance back and his tribesmen, the 150-thousand wolf-people also dropped to their knees and chanted, "We submit to the Aura God!"
"Good." Albion nodded.
Shortly after, he said, "Alright, go and talk to your daughter, Fenrira. She will fill you in on everything you need to know and help you settle the wolf-people into their new homes."
Hearing the mention of settling homes, Chief Fenrigos could not help but ask, "How much land do you plan to allocate to my people, my Lord? After all, our tribe is not exactly small..."
"If you round up your entire tribe, it would only amount to 200-thousands at most. Such a number is not small? That's cute," Albion mentioned before stating calmly, "Well, there are 7 billion other humans in this world."
"S-S-Seven billion humans?!"
Chief Fenrigos's jaw slowly dropped with alarm.
"Don't be too surprised," Albion casually said before stating, "There are another five of these settlements in this region. And in the future, they will all be connected. These six settlements and their surrounding lands will be your territory."
"Thank you, my Lord!" Chief Fenrigos stated gratefully.
Looking at the sheer size of the stronghold, having just four of such places was more than enough to accommodate all their people after undergoing some refurbishing and redevelopment.
However, if Chief Fenrigos knew that the place was not legally owned by Albion, he would be greatly surprised.
It was like going into someone else's supermarket and telling the customers that they can have all the items in that one corner.
"Well, that's that." Albion shortly turned back to Fenrira and said, "You can give me a list after taking account of all the wolf-people's needs to live here. I will have it settled once I get back."
"Yes, Master!" Fenrira complied.
"Fenriri, we're going."
"Yes, Master!"
Fenriri immediately hopped off the tall wall towards Albion.
However, contrary to her expectations, Albion did not catch her but took a step back, causing Fenriri body to disappear into a human-shaped hole in the heavy snow.
Shortly after, Fenriri's head reappeared from the hole and spat out a mouthful of snow.
"You good?" Albion casually asked while glancing down at her.
"Yeah…" Fenriri uttered with a blank look before she raised her head and asked, "But why didn't Master catch me?"
"Well… Did you ask me to?"
"No…"
Fenriri felt wronged.
Nevertheless, Albion did not wait for her and shortly started walking in the direction of the world portal, causing Fenriri to quickly scurry out of the hole and chase after him.
Chief Fenrigos and the wolf-people watched them left curiously before Fenrira approached and said, "Father, come with me. I'll show you around inside."
"Hmm…" Chief Fenrigos hummed for a moment before he nodded, "Alright."

Netherfrost Blizzard Realm
At the location of the old Iceborn Wolf Tribe, hidden inside of a massive cave on the side of a snowy mountain, not a single soul could be detected.
It was utterly devoid of life after the wolf-people departed for the new world.
However, the ground suddenly started cracking apart before numerous earthworms crawled out of the ground.
"Iceborn Wolf Tribe has left! Today, I, the king of the blizzard earthworms, shall proclaim this land as our own! It will be a new haven, a new beginning for our people!" the king of blizzard earthworms spoke.
"The prophecy foretold that a great change will happen here! We will take advantage of that opportunity and rise to the top of this world!"
"The king is wise! All hail the king of blizzard earthworms!"
"Sure enough, the king is destined to lead us to greatness!"
"He is the chosen one! We did not choose wrongly!"
The other blizzard earthworms sang songs of praises to their newly ascended king when a large shadow suddenly loomed over their heads…

Meanwhile, Albion and Fenriri arrived at the old tribe before Fenriri introduced, "Master, this is where we used to live."
"I see."
Albion responded impassively while observing the interior of the huge cave.
"Eh?" Fenriri suddenly noticed something sticking to the soles of her Master's feet before she mentioned, "Master, I think you stepped on something."
"Did I?" Albion nonchalantly glanced back down at the blue smudges before he commented, "Oh, that's unfortunate."
At the same time, a group of blizzard earthworms gathered around a puddle of blue liquid that remained of their king and cried in sorrow.
"My king, you died so unjustly!"
