Chapter 306 The Critical Solution For The Newborns (3)

The Village Chief glanced at Caretaker Shani, who still stared at Orion in disbelief, and sighed internally before refocusing on Orion. After carefully considering everything, he couldn't help but doubt if Orion could truly execute his third plan. "Are you sure that something like that is possible to create?" he asked, probing for further assurance.
"Yes, it's possible. Although we'll have to run some trials first to ensure everything is perfect before we commence, I'm confident it will work out the way we've envisioned," Orion expressed. Unsurprisingly, even if given a blade to forge, he wouldn't have known what to do with it. As an ordinary man with capabilities solely based on his abilities as an HR, he felt inadequate in some areas.
However, when it came to recreating something as simple as this plan, he knew he was more than capable of handling it.
"Alright," The Village Chief nodded his head and spoke, "I will trust in your capabilities and wait until you are ready to provide the results. So in the meantime, I will task Caretaker Shani to help you with the wood, and Caretaker Zola to aid you in providing the pieces of cloth that you will need. When you are done, you can come and meet me for the last of the items." Shifting his focus to Caretaker Shani, who had just broken out of her daze, before he looked at Caretaker Zola, who was on the opposite side.
As the Caretakers whose names had been called out nodded their heads in understanding, Orion responded, "Alright, Chief."
"Alright then, it seems that the Village Chieftess also has something to say," the Village Chief said, directing everyone's attention towards the Village Chieftess.
The Village Chieftess took notice of the focus on her and began, "When I first asked you to be present at this meeting today, I had not expected you to come up with such a well-thought-out plan like this. Although I am disturbed by the use of Naka in this way, I cannot deny that if we can pull off such an ambitious plan, then we might be able to solve this problem once and for all, and focus our attention on the construction of the new settlement," she said, locking her gaze with Orion.
Everyone in the room subtly nodded in agreement with the Village Chieftess's words. Solving this problem would lift a heavy burden from their shoulders. However, the Village Chief couldn't help but feel a sense of remembrance at his wife's words.
The Village Chieftess continued, her gaze still on Orion, "However, let's say that this plan does indeed work. What are we going to do if the villagers push for another gathering? Wouldn't we still return to the same point if we suddenly refuse to hold such a gathering again, instead of doing our best to make it a recurring event since the first one was a success?"
She placed herself in the villagers' position and foresaw the doubts and problems that were bound to arise if the villagers decided to host such a gathering themselves.
Orion responded, "A few days after the gathering, another rumour would surface saying that the seven warriors had ventured even deeper into the other side of the river, seeking to face another dangerous wave of three-star Vylkr vines to test their prayers again. However, their previous circumstances never occurred again. Instead, they were immediately overwhelmed by the lesser stars of Vylkr vines, and only one warrior managed to return to the stronghold. He was screaming about how Naka was angry with them for their lack of contentment. However, his injuries were so severe that he died moments after arriving."
"That is why the seven warriors should be purely imaginary. By creating this fictional group, you can easily control the information and the number of people who are aware of it," Orion explained. He had loosely based the number of required warriors on the group he had encountered while trying to save Fifi's life.
However, Orion knew that this part of the plan would have to be handled by the Village Chief and the other key figures themselves. Given how closely knit the villagers were, it would be difficult for other warriors not to ask about these seven imaginary warriors.
Nevertheless, since they had successfully kept the secret of sacrificing newborns to keep the village safe and lessen the burden on the warriors for over a century, Orion believed that handling this aspect of the plan should be a piece of cake for them.
The Village Chieftess nodded slowly, a thoughtful expression on her face as she continued, "So that means while you take care of making sure the plan moves forward smoothly, we should also ensure that nothing interrupts it and that no doubts arise about the seven imaginary warriors and the rumours?"
Observing the Village Chieftess reiterating his words to confirm her understanding, Orion nodded in agreement and replied, "Yes, precisely."
The Village Chieftess let out a sigh, shaking her head as she refrained from asking any more questions, delving instead into deep thought to examine if there were any other flaws in the plan now that they were all still present. She deliberately avoided looking at her husband, who was seated beside her, hating that she might see the playful glint in his eyes, indicating he was proud of his assumption that Orion would come up with a feasible plan, no matter how absurd it might seem.
With the Village Chieftess having finished speaking, Caretaker Naida promptly voiced her thoughts, "Although I also agree that using Naka's name in such a way makes me uncomfortable, given that it's either this or destabilizing the village, I see no other option but to support Orion's plan and vote for its immediate implementation," she said, turning her head to the side, with Orion sitting next to her and Caretaker Shani on her other side.
Orion couldn't help but smile, seeing the unanimous agreement from all of them, both in their spoken words and unspoken expressions. He knew that it would take some time for his plan to be fully understood and embraced, so the satisfaction he felt was a welcome response.
Upon hearing Caretaker Naida's positive response, the Village Chief immediately nodded and said, "Let those in favour of implementing Orion's plan and guaranteeing its success, raise their hands." He raised his right hand, observing as the Village Chieftess raised hers too, followed by each of the Caretakers, one by one, all showing their support by raising their hands.
