Chapter 218: The five villages



Aur smiled mysteriously, patting her head with warmth, which ceased her trembling.

"Take care."

With that said, the two Second Elders and Aur left directly, heading for the village leader\'s office.

As they walked, the two didn\'t speak, maintaining silence.

"Aur, do you know why there\'s a meeting?" asked the Second Elder.

"No," Aur shook his head cluelessly.

The Second Elder\'s expression turned vigilant as he glanced around. Suddenly, his eyes glowed in a strange pattern resembling the carving of a siren.

Instantly, a thin, shimmering film materialised, enveloping both Aur and the Second Elder. Were it not for Aur\'s heightened perception, the films that covered both of them from outside would have been nearly imperceptible.

"What is this, Second Elder?" Aur inquired, his curiosity piqued as he reached out to touch the film, only to find his finger passing through it effortlessly.

The second elder was a little surprised, sensing that even Aur could instantly see it. However since his body strength was naturally stronger it wasn\'t strange that he could sense the stronger the body gets the stronger the senses.

"This is an imitation of the sound spell," he explained in a nonchalant manner.

"A sound spell?" Aur was stunned.

"Indeed. While sound spells are typically reserved for the village leader and one of the rare natural spells, one with sufficient understanding of the magic can create an imitation of it. Unfortunately, my version can only muster about one-twentieth of the original spell\'s potency and consumes an exorbitant amount of mana for what it is worth," the Second Elder lamented with a heavy sigh.

"Anyway, the point is that the meeting is about a potential beast tide."

"A beast tide!?" Aur exclaimed, his expression registering shock and concern simultaneously.

"Yes, there are signs of a beast tide. Three of the instructors were killed, so the leader had sent three elders, consisting of the first elder and two others." The Second Elder said.

Aur\'s expression turned serious as he nodded his head.

"Remember to be respectful."

"I know."

With that said, the films disappeared, and all the sound waves could instantly travel around the place again.

The students who were walking here and there saw Aur and immediately bowed in reverence; not a single trace of resentment was present in their gaze, only reverence.

After all, Aur was the first elder in their generation, symbolising the inevitable passing of time, with the young taking over the old. Although it might have offended the old fogies, at the same time, he became an idol for the younger generation.

As Aur swiftly entered the familiar room, his gaze fell upon a solemn row of elders, a sight that gave him pause.

"There are at least thirty elders present? This means all the elders should be here," Aur mused silently, his eyes lingering on the first elder, whose grim countenance and the presence of two lifeless bodies on the ground.

Noah\'s carefree demeanour abruptly shifted as his eyes casually fell upon Aur. "Looks like Elder Aru has arrived; let\'s begin the meeting," he remarked, his tone devoid of seriousness.

Without a word, Aur quietly made his way to an empty seat. The second elder followed suit and sat in his seat as well.

"Alright, so what happened?" Noah\'s inquiry cut through the tension, his expression now stern and devoid of any hint of a smile.

The first elder, his gaze lowered in shame and grief, struggled to speak. Tears glistened in his eyes as he addressed Noah. "I am sorry, village leader. I couldn\'t protect them," he said in an extremely hoarse voice. Read the latest stories on M-VL-em|p,yr

"It\'s fine, tell me what happened?" Noah asked, waving his hand dismissively.

"Everything was fine as we travelled deep into the wilderness and even found the source of the beast tide. However, when we spied on the beast tide, we were terrified. There were thousands of wolves, and many of them emitted the aura of a tier two wizard. But that wasn\'t what scared us," the first elder recounted, his face reflecting genuine terror.

"Was there a tier three beast?" Noah\'s expression turned grave.

"No," the first elder shook his head.

"Then what?" Noah asked, his confusion evident.

"There were five tier three beasts, and one of them seemed to possess a terrifying power. Its presence seemed to be several times greater than the other tier three beasts."

As the first elder finished speaking, a strange silence enveloped the entire atmosphere. It didn\'t take a genius to know what happened next.

Noah\'s expression morphed into a thoughtful frown as he contemplated the gravity of the situation.

"It seems like an alliance with the five villages is inevitable," Noah remarked, his gaze sweeping the room. "Anyone want to object?"

Silence hung heavy in the air.

"Very well then, it\'s decided. Our northern village will form an alliance with the southern village, eastern village, western village, and the nomad\'s village," Noah declared with a weary sigh.

Although the five villages remained nameless, for the sake of clarity, they were designated based on their geographical locations relative to the wilderness.

Each village was named according to the direction it faced. Additionally, the nomad village, situated at the centre of the wilderness and a little wild so the five villages were called to provide better context and understanding.

"Prepare for war," he announced solemnly. "Since we already had plans to attack the other village, our stock doesn\'t need to be supplied, and it is perfect for the change. Have you sent messages to the other villages?"

"Yes, Leader, the message has been sent," a voice confirmed.

"Good. The meetings are over. Stock up on supplies and utilise everything in your arsenal. Also…" Noah paused, his gaze lingering on Aur. "Let the younger generation deal with the early stages of the beast tide. They will receive the necessary resources and their training for the future will also be underway."

"Elder Aur, would you also like to participate?" Noah inquired, his gaze turning towards Aur.

"Yes," Aur replied expressionlessly, "These guys in their hearts don\'t consider me as an elder at all." he thought in his heart.

However, Aur found it unsurprising; after all, he was merely a weakling, barely at the tier one early-stage wizard level in their eyes, while they were high and mightly tier two wizards. How could they not disdain him?

"Leader is wise," the first elder chimed in, bowing his head in deference, with the other elder following suit.

Noah waved his hand, signalling the end of the meeting. With that, all of the elders departed.
