Chapter 45: Ambition

"Now I should check my other attribute"

Wisdom

Wisdom represents your character’s spiritual and intuitive acumen.

A high Wisdom attribute enhances your ability to perceive hidden truths, understand certain magical runes and writing and give a boost to your magical power, if applicable.

It also improves your resistance against mind-altering effects, (from mind bending poisons or enchantment of the mind) enhances your connection with nature if applicable, and can grant you access to divine or mystical powers.

With increased wisdom, your character gains a deeper understanding of the world and the creatures that inhabit it.

They possess heightened intuition, enabling them to sense potential dangers or hidden motives.

This attribute would sometimes give you a sense of what a person motive. Trust your instinct when you felt it is not right

Investing points into Wisdom allows you to unlock special abilities or talents that tap into your character’s heightened spiritual or intuitive capabilities.

These abilities may include heightened perception, the ability to communicate with animals or spirits, or the capacity to channel divine energies for healing or spellcasting.

MAX STAT POINT: 100 stat point

"Once again....." he muttered to himself.

The moment that the attribute touches something that is not quantifiable in real life it began touching on the realm of the mystic.

That is Aeryon feeling

Wisdom after all, in real life could not be quantified. After all, wisdom is the accumulation of experience

At the time when he got this attribute, he also wondered how the system would use this kind of attribute. It would eb weird if he puts points on the Wisdom attribute and suddenly he become a wise old man, right?

And now he learns something new again

"there is magical runes and magical writing. And a boost to magical powers?"

This time, he no longer have that laisse-faire attitude to reading the description. It seems even the descriptions of his attribute could teach him something about this world

There is also the sentence about mind altering effect. Now, he learns that there is some poisons which could affect the mind and even enchantments that could affect the mind.

"this wisdom is basically like an enhanced version of instinct that is heightened to filter out bad people and warn himself of things that could go wrong"

At least that is how Aeryon decided to see it.

It is very useful for him. Especially the part where he could sometimes sense a person motive against him

And there is also something about the ability to communicate with animals. And the capacity to channel divine energies for healing or spellcasting

"It is a pity that I don’t have any divine energies"

But he smiles as he caress the back of his horse

"But, I do have my horse" Aeryon chuckles a bit. The horse neighed in joy as it felt the caress of its master

He had checked the attribute of wisdom. Now, is the time to check his charisma attribute

Charisma

Charisma represents your character’s, persuasiveness, and ability to interact effectively with others.

A high Charisma attribute enhances your charm and presence, allowing you to influence and persuade others more effectively.

It also improves your ability to negotiate, gather information, and lead groups.

With increased charisma, your character has a natural ability to command attention and make a memorable impression.

It would make you to be more persuasive when you are making a great point

Additionally, a high Charisma enables you to build rapport with a wide range of individuals, fostering trust and forming strong alliances.

Investing points into Charisma allows you to unlock special abilities or talents. Charisma could also evolve into an aura that only you could have that could influence people if they have a weak will

MAX STAT POINT: 100 stat point

Aeryon read it for a couple of times but nothing struck that much to him.

Though, it is interesting to see that it describes that the charisma could evolve into an aura.

’What? Don’t tell me it is like Conqueror Haki or something? He thought to himself before chuckling to himself.

And he seems to have quite the high charisma. He has eight points in charisma. They were only a few of his attribute that reached eight points.

’Is it because I am the Chief?" Aeryon nodded to himself. He believes that the reason why his charisma is so high is probably because he is the Chief.

One thing that is good about his small tribe is that while it is small, they respected his authority.

Now, that his small tribe no longer is so small, there is also some complication but it is still manageable.

And as for the conquered new subjects, that was even more easy to make them listen

Because they have seen how he fights, that dread they feel when they were facing him, translates into authority.

The people of his tribe feel close to him but for the tribes he had conquered, they feel fear, awe and commanding presence from him

Aeryon after all is not exactly aiming to be a likable chief. He is aiming to become a powerful chief. And go beyond that.

He looks at the next attribute.

"Perception, huh? I have high expectation for this attribute" he muttered to himself.

Aeryon could tell that this Perception thing might also relate to another magical means. It is for wisdom and intelligence so how could it not be for Perception?

"Open the description" he thought to himself

....

While Aeryon is checking his attributes, the people of the tribe are hard at work. And many of those who follow Aeryon battling the four tribes have now suddenly become the backbone of the military

The military of the tribe still rely on horse riders. It is not particularly a professional army but there are signs of it

Aeryon ordered a feast a few days after the victory which create cohesion among the warriors.

The warriors of the steppe are hard and harsh but they are also easy to recruit.

give them food and give them position and give them horses and sheep, and they would fight for you.

And after the tribe defeated the Ghar and Xewa tribe, even after splitting the resources with the Utgard tribe, there is still a lot of leftover.

Aeryon also ordered a large storage to be created. So, all over the area of the tribe, there is people digging.

Many underground storage is being built, people digging storage pits and underground cellars to store supplies and resources.

These pits were dug deep enough to maintain a consistent temperature and protect the stored items from extreme weather conditions.

The cool and dry environment helped preserve food and other perishable items.

There is one near the large tent. And there are many supplies stocked there.

Mayeux is trusted by Aeryon and is running around all over the tribe to supervise many of the aspect of the tribe

And Belairon....one of the most exemplars warrior during the battle is tasked to train new horse riders and warriors for the tribe

It does not seem like Aeryon is ready to slow down. Everyone could see from the Elders, to the tribes people that their Chief is not satisfied.

To the people of Brolgadhr tribe, they were unfamiliar with this kind of methods.

That is because the Brolgadhr was never a warmongering tribe.

They defend themselves and then when the threat is gone or solve with, they would strengthen themselves and did not provoke others

But it is clear from the training of new recruits, the recruitment of horsehides, the assimilation of the conquered tribes that their new Chief is unlike tehri old chief.

This is a young man with a fire in his eyes and great ambition in his heart

Though, it is understandable why such a young man has great ambition

How could the ambition of such a young man not be stoked when he had done such an incredible feat that would send ripples all over the Southern Great Steppe?

Aeryon rides his horse with a sword in his hand and defeated the Xewa tribe chasing down the chief of the Xewa tribe.

Then he attacked Ghar tribe e. And even with the difference in numbers, he overwhelmed them alone.

Then, the Utgard tribe chief was so impressed that he proposed an alliance.

Together, they defeated the Xewa and Ghar tribe, two of the largest small tribes that was on the rise had its flames extinguished and the name of their tribe to disappear from the Great Steppe

With such a feat.... how could the ambition not be stoked? Even the young ones of the Brolgadhr tribe would listen to the stories around the fire and all have their heart beating and their blood burning.

They too wanted to be such a domineering warrior.

The strongest is respected in the Great Steppe. And the effect of the victory also emboldens the people of the Brolgadhr tribe.

And those who follows him into battle are all respected. Of the forty-eight people that followed Aeryon and Belarion, they all become famous.

Some was given woman to marry, sheep and horses.

These young people were inexperienced but even though they did not fight in the thick of battle, they fight from the side and uses arrows, sees a large-scale battle and they also learned something from all of the battle

All of the people that followed Aeryon in that battle is regarded as a veteran and most of them takes all kinds of jobs relating to the tribe.

The tribe now has grown and so Mayeux uses these people that followed Aeryon into his first battle as trainers, as supervisors as the eyes and ears of the chief
