After all, even the village chief himself relied on a collective effort to maintain a delicate balance. Besides, there was the potential for unforeseen consequences if Orion’s growth were stifled -a loss of his warrior capabilities could give rise to even greater challenges, whereas his unique fertility could prove just as valuable to their cause.
“Chief…” A familiar voice called out, its tone filled with concern, drawing his attention. He turned his head to find Thak, his loyal messenger, gazing at him with worried eyes. “Chief, are you alright?” Thak inquired, his gaze fixed on the village chief who had snapped out of his daze and regained awareness of his surroundings. The village chief scanned the area, his voice tinged with confusion as he asked, “Where is the boy?”
Listening to the village chief’s response, Thak let out a tired sigh, his weariness evident in his expression. “Orion left just a few minutes ago, Chief,” he replied, his voice tinged with a hint of exasperation. “After you finished reminding him once again about the fatal consequences if anyone were to discover the potential of his semen and cautioning him against revealing the news to the rest of the village.” The village chief nodded, recalling the stern lecture he had given the boy and the following discussion about the pregnant woman’s well-being and their planned relocation.
He had also provided Orion with precise instructions on what to do upon his arrival at the designated location.
“I believe it’s time for me to rest a little before attending to anything else,” the village chief pondered, rubbing his temples with a weary sigh. He then shifted his gaze towards Thak and expressed, “We’re finished for today. You should go and rest; tomorrow promises to be an exceptionally busy day.”
Rising from his seat, he stretched his tired limbs. Thak nodded in agreement, trailing behind the village chief as they made their way out. The weight of the day’s news had already begun to take its toll on him, leaving him yearning for some well-deserved rest and a chance to process everything that had transpired. .𝒄𝒐𝒎
Hopefully, they could easily solve everything tomorrow without any more unexpected surprises.
Meanwhile, Orion was still processing the village chief’s words when he spotted Aunt Greta standing near the entrance gates. Quickening his pace, he approached her, seeing as she had been patiently waiting for him. “Sorry for taking so long. I didn’t expect the village chief to give me another lecture,” he apologized.
Aunt Greta nodded, a smile on her face. “Don’t worry about it. It’s not his fault. The capabilities of your semen has surprised everyone, including me. So, it’s only natural that he wants to educate you about the potential consequences if the other young men in the village discover that they don’t have to go through the same struggles to impregnate a woman, knowing you can accomplish it with just one penetration. The risks are as significant as the advantages, so his concerns are justified.”
Tiredly, Orion nodded in understanding, pushing the topic to the back of his mind. He was certain that Aunt Greta wouldn’t stop talking if he let her continue. Interrupting her, he started to say, “Why don’t you…” However, his words were abruptly cut off as he noticed Aunt Greta’s furrowed brow and her gaze fixed on something behind him.
Not only that, but the reason he had also halted his words was because a tight grip had seized his shoulders. Startled, he turned to face the person behind this unexpected action, and his eyes widened in surprise as he saw that it was none other than Warrior Jean. “Warrior Jean,” Orion exclaimed, swiftly regaining his composure despite the tightening hand on his right shoulder. “How have you been?”.
Warrior Jean’s teeth gnashed together as he listened to Orion’s question. He had assumed that Orion’s absence from today’s warrior training indicated something bad or worse had occurred, prompting him to immediately come to the village chief’s compound to inquire after today’s training was over. However, seeing Orion here, completely unharmed and wearing a smile, made Warrior Jean say, “So you’ve finally let your fame get to your head.” He proceeded to shake his head, adding, “I had my doubts about whether you could handle the attention, but it seems I was mistaken. Nevertheless, I had already prepared a lesson, especially for you just in case things turned out like this.”
Slowly, Orion felt the drowsiness of sleep starting to envelop him. Just as he was about to free himself and explain his absence from training, something unexpected happened. In the blink of an eye, he found himself suspended atop Warrior Jean’s broad shoulders, as they lept through the air, with their destination set towards the direction of the farm.
In a moment of shock, Greta witnessed Orion being abruptly hijacked by a warrior. Without wasting any time, she urgently called out, “Orion!” before sprinting off into the vilage chief’s compound to inform the village chief about the unexpected turn of events.
Meanwhile, Warrior Jean tapped into his inner strength, effortlessly leaping from one area to another, feeling Orion regaining control over his body. However, Jean knew it was unnecessary to worry, as they had finally reached their destination.
Dropping Orion onto the dry, ashen ground on the other side of the forest, Warrior Jean observed as the young man sat up, surveying his surroundings before fixing his gaze on Jean. With a frown, Orion confronted him, demanding, “What exactly do you think you’re doing?”.
Impressed by the boy’s ability to conceal his fear and regain his composure, Warrior Jean applauded him inwardly. However, Warrior Jean was aware that they had little time before the lesson he intended to impart would begin. Without wasting a moment, he replied, “I am here to provide you with a private training lesson, so you can truly understand the essence of being a warrior.”
Meanwhile, Orion couldn’t help but stare in disbelief at the impulsive warrior before him. Rubbing his fingers against his forehead, Orion took a deep breath, trying to calm down before explaining. “Look, you didn’t even wait for me to explain wha—” However, he was interrupted by sudden vibrations that reverberated through the ground.
