In a flock of ignorant chickens, a smart one would definitely appear and it seems like the Chief was the smart chicken

While listening to Rezen's suggestions, her mind started to formulate her own plans depending on the tribe's situation

"I'll agree with your suggestion but are you sure that they really grow fast and plentiful?" The Chief asks to make sure

In her eyes, farming potatoes is a big investment. They could simply use the potatoes that they found as food instead of planting them

There is a risk that the seed potato wouldn't sprout or even if it sprouts, the potatoes might not grow before winter arrives

"I'm 100% confident, Chief! Potatoes are easy to grow and the harvest definitely wouldn't disappoint!" Rezen answered confidently

If it was only him, he wouldn't be this confident as there might be a difference between the potatoes of the earth realm and the Savage Beast Realm

However, he has Ivy with him. Based on Ivy's database, these potatoes grew really well. There is nothing to be worried about

"If that is the case then I'll leave the old, disabled, and children along with some abled apprentice mages on your hands. You are free to command them to create your potato farm" the Chief said

Most of the apprentice mage that can still fight without any problem has to continue hunting magic beasts

While the taste of the potatoes was okay to them, since they grew up eating roasted meat, most tribesmen would still prefer it

They can't just eat potatoes all the time. As such, the members of the tribe that are mostly idle are finally given some work

The old and disabled always stays inside the tribe as they cannot hunt magic beasts anymore. As a result, the tribe is the one that provides food for them but because they are essentially a burden, they don't get much food

Not to mention, when danger arrives, the old and disabled are the ones that die first as they are technically turned into human meat shield

The children are in a better position as they are seen as the tribe's future and are more protected

The next generation of Junior Mages would come from them while the older ones would die in time. This is a cycle

But now, after Rezen appeared, the old and disabled, and even the children would finally have something that they could do to help the tribe prosper!

The tribesmen are very efficient in some ways. Since most of them are idle because of the lack of entertainment in this world, they proceeded to work as soon as the Chief gave the order

The old and disabled can't fight properly anymore but most of them still have their Resonance Gem with them and with the help of their gems, they could cast magic

"Please start" Rezen said respectfully and the tribesmen nodded their heads at his signal

"[Water Stream!]"

"[Water Stream!]"

"[Water Stream]"

The tribesmen cast their magic and around fifteen magic circles formed at once

Because of the harsh environment, those that cannot fight properly die easily. As such, although the tribe has around a hundred members, only fifteen of them are old or disabled

Their numbers have lessened significantly because of the magic beast attack before

Those that lost their loved ones mourned for a bit but it seems like death is far too common in this world. They are still saddened and pained but they recovered enough to the point that they could work

Thanks to the stream spells of fifteen apprentice mages, the trees in the vicinity of the tribe start to fall

The soil of the forest is more than enough to farm the potatoes and for now, the trees must be cut down first

Potatoes always do best in full sun. The trees are to be cut down not only to give the potatoes some space but also to ensure that the crops would receive enough sunlight

Since Rezen cannot use any magic yet, he could only watch the process, and to lessen the noise, the Chief herself has decided to help

In any case, the Chief is to stay inside the tribe in case of dangers appeared

They cannot do much about the magic fluctuations caused by the spells but for the noise, the Chief could use her magic to slow down the falling rate of the trees

A falling tree would cause a loud sound but with the Chief's intervention, the trees fall slowly and they don't cause much noise

However, the magic fluctuations from the spell still attracted quite a number of magic beasts

"Be careful! It's a Razortail Lizard!" The Chief warned causing the nerves of the tribesmen to tighten

What emerged from the trees was a lizard with a body that is two meters long with a tail that is even longer than its body

The tail was at least four meters long and was filled with sharp protrusions

The only fortunate thing was that it was only a beastling. The Chief could kill this lizard easily but she doesn't need to fight this lizard

The Chief is currently the only Junior Mage present in the tribe. She has to conserve her mana as, without mana, she is no different than an old woman

Using telekinetic magic to slow down the fall of the trees doesn't cost a lot of mana but casting offensive spells does

Not to mention, this lizard is definitely not the last one that would be attracted by the magic fluctuations

The Chief has to conserve her strength in case a Junior Rank magic beast arrives

Fortunately, there were three abled magic apprentices present in the area and they moved to fight the lizard

"[Water Stream!]"

"[Waterball!]"

"[Water Stream!]"

The apprentice mages used their Resonance Gems that floated in front of them. Blue magic circles also formed in front of them that release basic stream spells and a [Waterball] spell

The stream spells targeted the lizard from the sides while the [Waterball] spell targeted its head

In return, the lizard uses its long tail to smash the spells apart. It succeeded in negating two of the three spells but one stream spell was still able to hit it

On the left side of the lizard, a gaping wound was created on one of its legs. The lizard bled from its leg as it cried out in pain

The pain enrages the lizard and it swung its long tail around, crashing the nearby trees

A single mage might find it hard to fight a magic beast at the same level as them but if there are three of them then it was easier

Not to mention, aside from these three abled apprentice mages, there were still the old and disabled!

While they cannot tread the forest to hunt, they still have the ability to cast spells and some of them attacked the lizard

With the cooperation between multiple apprentice mages, the Razortail Lizard soon died. Its meat would be added to the tribe's food reserves

This happened not just once or twice. The more the tribesmen casts their magic, the more magic beasts were attracted to the point that the Chief was forced to intervene from time to time

"Rezen, this wouldn't do. If we continue, we might attract even more magic beasts that we cannot deal with" the Chief said with a sigh

The plan of farming potatoes is a good one. Unfortunately, because of the harsh environment, it was hard to proceed with the plan

Before the tribe could benefit from the potatoes, they might die first

Even Rezen could see that things have become troublesome. This realm is really filled with magic beasts, no wonder that humans were at their mercy

However, Rezen is unwilling to give up. He needed the farm if he wants to preserve the fighting prowess of the tribe

"Chief, could we postpone the plan first? I would try to think of a situation" Rezen said and the Chief nodded her head

With a dejected look on his face, Rezen returned to his hut and along the way, tbe tribesmen tried to cheer him up with their words

Inside his hut, Rezen started conversing with Ivy

The fairy although has an incomplete database still knows a lot of things. It's just that for Rezen's own benefit, Ivy wouldn't spoonfeed everything to him

Sometimes, Rezen has to personally ask questions before Ivy gives the answer he wanted

In the past, Rezen would label Ivy as a troublesome fellow but he was more matured now

Being comfortable all because he has a cheat to rely on wouldn't do him any good. To achieve something, Rezen also has to work hard and use his brain

Not everything he wants would just magically fall down on his lap

"Ivy, what are our options to keep the magic beasts away? Do you have a recipe for a beast-repelling powder or something?" Rezen asks, hoping that Ivy has the recipe he needed
