Way of Overlord
Chapter 65: Promotion

Chapter 65: Promotion

The problem that Aeryon is thinking is about a city.

Mayeux had been thinking to create a city here. At first Aeryon does not believe it could work because they live in the Steppe.

But then Mayeux reminded him that their tribe is not that far away from Nurshira. And only then he remembers. This is not the Great Steppe of his world. The border of Nurshira is not separated by thousands of miles of dessert.

Instead, if he wanted to come to Nurshira, he simply could ride his horse and in just a few days, he would be there.

Only then he recognizes that he treated the Great Steppe like the Mongolian Steppe of his world and so he seems to ignore the fact that they are very close with Nurshira.

It is possible to create even stone castles like in Yan.

And it is possible to create a large city here. Mayeux himself had reminded him that the ancestor of the Brolgadhr tribe chooses this place for a reason. When they were defeated in the past, near the Central Steppe, they retreated to the South.

And they chose this place because it is easy to trade. In the past, the Yan traded with the tribes around here and the tribes would go to sell the wares toward the West, East and North of the Steppe.

But then the Yan weaponize trade and trust between two sides broke and both look at each other with hostility

Of course, merchants are a group of people who are not deterred and would find profit if they can.

Some smuggle their wares. It is isn’t until a few decades ago, that even the merchants find it hard to come to the Great Steppe and trade.

These merchants are usually merchants from Yan. However, it took Mayeux to make him understand how strategic the placement of the tribe.

Of course, the place also has its danger. It back is on Nurshira. If Yan ever wanted to another expedition toward the Steppe, the tribe could easily become one of the threats that the invasion force would destroy.

Aeryon then shake his head

"It is not helpful to think about this kind of stuff right now" he mutters to himself.

His mind is like this, it fired off to different tangent every once in a while. Aeryon look at his status window again and he smiles

He also now has five Wood card. Before, he only had one.

"This would be very helpful"

With the meat, there would be no problem of having little food. Whether it is the people of this world or the people of his world, as long as he could make sure that they did not have shortage of food they would feel that he is a good ruler.

With food, he could recruit more people. And more people, means more soldiers. And he needs that.

And there is many other uses he could think of.

"It would not be a bad idea to donate some of the meat to the six conquered tribes" he thought to himself.

Each meat card gives two hundred and fifty kilograms of meat. And each card could feed a thousand people.

He has six cards. Basically, he could feed six thousand people. One kilogram of meat itself could feed four people.

This is not adding to his own personal livestock that had increased because he had taken it from the Xewa tribe and the Ghar tribe

He had no shortage of meat.

"I could even show more generosity by rewarding horses and my livestock. "The use of livestock is many. There is the meat, the milk, the bones, everything from the livestock could be beneficial

"Six thousand people" And he did not even have six thousand people in his tribe. With this much abundance of food, he did not need to worry on how to calm the people

"Maybe, I would send some to the soldiers so that they could eat lots of meat today" Anyway he has surplus meat

As for the Wood, it is also very important to him. He could always trade wood with the people on the north and the east. But it is better if he could get it without paying anything.

And it would help in the construction project. There is still a lot of wood that he got from the Xewa and Ghar tribe.

He needs workers.

"That is another problem for tomorrow" he thought to himself.

Now, is the time for him to check the two-ability card he got. One of them is Commanding Aura. The other one is Inspiring Words

He checks the Commanding Aura card

_____________________________________

"Leadership attribute?"

Aeryon is quite sure that he did not have such attribute

But when he checks his status window, briefly glancing at it, he was surprised to see that there is another attribute that pop out.

It is the leadership attribute. And he as eight points. Aeryon quickly uses the card and the information about the ability streamed into his mind

In just a few second, he understood everything there is about this skill

Since his leadership attribute is eight, the skill could last for eight minutes. The range is eight feet

So, it would only boost warriors that is around him. And it would only last eight minutes. Though to him that is good enough

Now, he looks at the Inspiring Word skill

...

This is his two new skills. Then he looks at his attribute points. He now has three attribute points.

He looks at his status window and decided in almost an instant.

"Endurance. I need to increase my endurance" he thought to himself

Aeryon would like to increase his strength. But if he continues to increase strength attribute, his power.... become disproportionate.

He has great strength but not enough endurance.

So, he quickly thinks in his mind to put the three points into endurance in his status window, the Endurance stat change from 4 to 7.

Aeryon could feel the change. His endurance level had increases significantly. He doesn’t know what change but he could feel himself feeling more.... fit, if that is the right way to describe it

But what he can be sure off, with hi endurance rising, he would probably have more stamina, reduced fatigue when he fights or when he uses his strength. And it would probably also help improve his higher energy level. Even now, he felt energized

’Another day, another improvement" he thought to himself.

He like this feeling of quickly getting stronger

But he is not finished

He thought he would have to spend some time to complete the class change.

Who would have thought that the moment he asks for the quest, he already completed it? So, right now, he doesn’t have any mission or quest. And the good of his system was that it could generate quest by itself

And there is a kind of quest that he could generate right now. He could generate another class quest right now.

But he could also do a different kind of quest.

A Promotion Quest.
