Way of Overlord
Chapter 513: Filial Piety

Chapter 513: Filial Piety

Aeryon look at her and he could only shakes his head and sighed. This matter could not be hidden and it is better not to delay it

"she also needs to know" he thought to himself.

"Let’s talk inside"

Aeryon walk toward the residence and she follows behind him.

Today, she did not come as his queen.

But as a warrior.

A daughter that wanted to avenger her father.

But this is the real world.

Not some story. Just because you are a queen does not mean you have power

Even more so in this setting. This Queen relies always on the mercy of her husband

If her husband is no longer king, she is no longer Queen

And if the King decides she no longer needs to be Queen then that power would be stripped from her.

That is the power of the founding monarch. And that is what Aeryon is. He is the new founder of this new Brolgadhr tribe

The Brolgadhr tribe that is barely breathing before him has become an overlord of the region because of him

The tribe that follows him is a new Brolgadhr tribe and the tribe he wanted to create is a new Brolgadhr tribe and the world he wanted to create is also a new world

The one giving her the title of Queen is the Brolgadhr tribe.

The Brolgadhr tribe is Aeryon Brolgadhr tribe and not Ayera tribe

Even though the relation between Brolgadhr and Utgard tribe is well, to say they are close would be overexaggerating of their relations

Many Brolgadhr elders believes that Utgard could only be as big and a prosperous they are right now is because of the fact that Aeryon needed them to contain the forces in the East and that is why Aeryon sometimes would grant a gift of horses and herds to the Utgard tribe

In this tribe, Ayera power could only allowed her to commands her people.

She could not touch the other military power in this large tribe.

Not only because she did not have the heir of the tribe but also because the other people are wary of this Viper daughter

Sometimes your position restrict you. And certain things could not be done just because you wanted to do it.

And that is what Ayera is facing right now.

The shackles and chains of her position.

Aeryon understood this.

But Ayera clearly did not yet understand this.

It is not so easy to divide yourself and your position so cleanly.

Once you take certain position, then you also have to consider that position. If not, that is the path to losing both

Aeryon did not say anything and Ayera also did not say anything.

Wherever he goes inside his large residence, he dismissed all of his servants. And then they reach a small pond.

And near the pond is a small pavilion standing on top of the pond.

This is a pavilion that Aeryon built for himself.

There is a small pond. From the water of the rain and his rain catchment area, it managed to create a small pond

Aeryon did this in few places that could accommodate such method to catch more water for the tribe.

Of course, the precipitation and the rain is not so good that it could make fertile lands like the one in Yan or in Yindu.

But it is enough for them to use it to drink.

And there is a stream. But Aeryon is always worried that the water would run out.

Last winter, it is very cold and the stream is frozen.

In his tribe not many people died because of the cold which is an improvement.

But further away from his settlements, those that are weak had surely died and suffer because of the cold.

Those who is lonely and without a tribe, unless they are strong or lucky, would probably die on the road in winter.

But since this kind of method is used, there is more water and with more water, at least one dying of thirst could be alleviated around here.

And Aeryon also could relieve some of his worries and at the same time feel the pleasure of bathing.

Among all the chief in the Steppe, Aeryon must be the one that cares about cleanliness the most.

He bathed at least two times a day.

Aeryon also wanted to bathe three times a day, but it would be too luxurious in this part of the world where water is at times scarce and is look more as a need than a want

All of this is to highlight the fact that Aeryon residence is luxurious.

Not because of gold, or silver or any other ornaments that would fetch high prices in the market but because of water.

Water and food, there is nothing more precious than this in this era

Aeryon stand on the wooden pavilion.

The roof is already completed, a rounded dome with decorations or threads and strings that shows the Marynku culture.

He stands on the edge of the pavilion

Below the pavilion is water and there is a few frogs.

Around the pavilion even though it is unseen, there is still bodyguards hidden around

Aeryon waves his hand signalling them to retreat.

The things that they are about to talk contains too many secrets. It is better not to add more ears in this conversation

Ayera notices it.

The sword in her heart is now trembling. Trembling with excitement

No one notices this sword in her heart. Not those who shadow them, and not Aeryon who is closest to her.

Ayera walk inside the pavilion and she still did not say anything. For a moment there only silence between them

The servants are now are far away and whatever the Kan would say, no one would hear it

Aeryon sighed

Ayera hearing this feel like this is the signal for her to talk

"What will you do about Utgard tribe?"

Aeryon did not immediately answer. Instead, he seems to be thinking about the words. He already have a decision in mind. He just wanted to convey it more properly to Ayera.

"There is no need to be impatient"

"I will attack Ogura. I will give him to you and took over the land that the Utgard had taken. But the legacy and the people of the tribe would find a new home under my banner. As long as you are there, the legacy of your tribe would not disappear"

There is a but. And that "but" means Utgard has to surrender to Brolgadhr.

Ayera always knew that there would be a price.

And it is a price she is willing to pay

But the things is, she did not believe him.

Aeryon care about her tribe, but she cares more about her revenge.

And she want it now. She wants to kill Ogura herself. Or at least Ogura being brought to her, shackled and chained as she stabs him

Other people would not understand it. But the people of the Steppe would understand it and it is reasonable.

Revenge for your loved ones is never a weird thing in the Steppe.

This is also the reason why the tribes in the Great Steppe could not unite each other.

One father could be killed by another allied tribe.

If they did not meet each other, it is fine.

But if they met each other in the battlefield, even if they were on the same side, the perpetrator and the one seeking vengeance both could not be at ease in heart.

There is even some cases where an alliance between two tribes break down because one of the member of the tribe have blood feud with another person of the opposite tribe.

The people of the Steppe could be cold at times but they could also be passionate. It depends on who they love.

A parent could be mourned and avenged if the parents have great bond with their children. But an abusive father would not be avenged

In Yan, filial piety is number one.

Sometimes, even if the father and mother is abusive, when they die, they still need to pretend to mourn them and even try to avenge them to show their filial piety

It is very different in the Steppe.

Vengeance is a personal matter. And it depends on the feeling of the one that is still alive.

Ayera knows Aeryon would someday attack Utgard. But before he attacks Utgard, Ogura could run or he could die from other causes.

And that is not acceptable to Ayera. She wanted him to know that there is consequences when doing something

He killed their father, so she would kill him

But there is a more important reason. The culprit is not only Ogura.

"Words" Ayera said with sarcasm dripping from her tone

"When?" she ask.

"Not now"

Ayera eyes narrows

"I do not have many things to bargain with you. My position in this tribe depends on your mood. There is no need to lie to me."

Aeryon sighed as he look forward and look at the pond and his eyes seems to look at the pond but his heart and his mind is actually looking further away than that

"I did not lie to you"

"You would allow me to have soldiers and warriors of the Utgard tribe after you conquer them? Bah!"
