Village Head's Debauchery

Chapter 292 The Chieftess's Bet

?

Even though Orion understood what she was trying to say, he still couldn't help but ask for clarification, "What are you trying to say, Chieftess?"

Chieftess Zara narrowed her eyes at Orion and explained, "What I am trying to say is that just like you, my husband has no future. Just like you, I was unable to see and predict his coming days, how he would handle the village, the potential dangers that may befall him or the village, the decisions he would take and how they will affect both him and the village. I am unable to see anything, not even a glimpse of it, just like you." 

She shook her head in discouragement, then paused and dropped her head before raising it again, taking a deep breath of fresh air and exhaling deeply once more. Focusing her eyes back on Orion, her voice suddenly became firm as she continued, "In the grand scheme of everything that involves the village's safety and the Village Chief's life, you, Orion, have made my gift useless."

Orion swallowed down his saliva silently, understanding that this was a problem that went far beyond him rescuing Fifi on the other side of the river. "Although I'm not sure about others, it's clear that anyone who has been around you or interacted with you for an extended period has their future slowly but surely ripped away," Chieftess Zara explained, leaning forward and settling her arms on her crossed legs. 

She used her right hand to massage her head as she continued, "I don't know how to say this, but the most logical explanation for all of this is that you are the problem..... Orion, you are the problem."

Looking at her as she stared deep into his eyes, Orion was about to say something when he was unfortunately cut off by the Village Chieftess. "And as you know, problems are things that need to be solved before they, unfortunately, become much bigger than they currently are," Chieftess Zara said, causing Orion to hold his guard up and keep his senses on high alert.

"But because of my husband's words as the Village Chief, instead of finding a solution to this problem and preventing it from escalating further, I am willing to place a bet on you, Orion," Chieftess Zara added, her voice carrying a sense of decisiveness.

Orion took a deep breath to calm himself, understanding that this was a very important conversation that required his utmost attention. "What kind of bet are you talking about, Village Chieftess?" he asked, his voice steady despite the nerves inside him.

"A simple one, actually," Chieftess Zara responded with a knowing smile. "In return for rendering my gift useless in the grand scheme of the safety and future of this village and the Village Chief, I am willing to bet the future of this village on your shoulders."

"And you don't have to do anything much, except make sure and promise me that you will work hard in reaching your full potential as a warrior with a six-star potential. We need you to take care of the Vylkr vines surrounding the village and the forest with ease, and proceed with the plan that you presented the other day with the Village Chief and Caretakers, and make it come to fruition"

She continued, "While I agree that your potent semen is indeed valuable for both the village and the creation of this new settlement, I'm certain you'll also agree that the village needs your strength more than your exceptional fertility. Since you would be spearheading the development of this new village, and no one else would dare to volunteer or even think about taking your place, it's essential for you to depend on your strength and show us what it truly means to be a warrior with a six-star potential."I think you should take a look at

Orion's gaze never wavered as he absorbed the weight of the Chieftess's request. "So, in exchange for rendering your gift useless, you want me to bear the burden of the village's future and ensure it moves in the right direction," he repeated thoughtfully.

"Yes," Chieftess Zara responded with a swift nod, her gaze never leaving his.

"If that's all you're worried about, Chieftess, then you don't have to worry," Orion replied, his smile brimming with confidence. He knew that with his outstanding potential as a warrior, he wouldn't be allowed to laze around idly in the village. 

He had planned to deal with his family matters first and resolve any lingering issues before fully dedicating himself to training. Now that his whole family was introduced to each other and Ursa's situation was being taken care of, Orion was ready to shift his focus.

"However..." Orion continued, causing the Village Chieftess to pause and listen attentively, "...now that my family is safe and soon to be relocated, I would like to address the matter concerning the newborn babies under Overseer Anara's care before fully committing to my training."

"Oh," Chieftess Zara exclaimed in surprise, not expecting Orion to bring up such a critical issue during their conversation. Nevertheless, considering Orion's composed demeanour and thoughtful response, she shouldn't have been surprised. "And do you have any solution for the children?" she asked further.

Orion shook his head, "Not yet," he replied honestly. "I am still working on finding a way to ensure everything is in order before presenting my plan. Because my priority is to move the children back to their families as soon as possible."

Realizing that Orion was still pondering how to reunite the children with their families, just as her husband had informed her, Chieftess Zara smiled widely and said, "If that is the case, then you have until tomorrow morning to devise a solution. Present it in the presence of both me and the Caretakers, and we will work together to implement it."

"Huh," Orion's lips hung open in confusion. Of course, he was aware of the time pressure they were facing; however, wasn't this still a little too much?
