Chapter 902 - Returning To The Infertile Plains

"Leaving? Right now, my Lord? But my elite clan members have yet to return—" Nyfarella mentioned with surprise.
She had more to say, but Leon raised a hand gesture to stop her from speaking further.
"Your clan won't be accompanying me. I don't intend to take anyone else back to the Infertile Plains with me besides my women," Leon stated.
Nyfarella felt disappointed after hearing that, especially since the Lord rejected her despite seeing her bare body.
Nevertheless, she had no intention of holding the Lord responsible. The Lord wasn't to blame for something she had acted upon herself.
"I understand, my Lord," Nyfarella replied despondently.
Aria watched the exchange between the two before she narrowed her sharp eyes, sensing something amiss with the mood.
She became suspicious and stared at Leon.
At the same time, Leon felt Aria's stare and felt awkward inwardly. Even so, he did not need to feel guilty since he resisted his lust.
As such, his expression remained calm, as if he didn't sense her stare.
"You don't need to feel disappointed," Leon said to Nyfarella.
"Even if you want to follow me, you still have your responsibilities to your clan members. Right now, your clan members need you to settle them down."
"I understand, my Lord," Nyfarella nodded.
Just as her Lord had said, her clan members needed her more than ever. Now that the men had returned to the clan, she needed to plan their post-trauma treatment.
At the same time, she had to implement new regulations and teach the entire clan about the body forging methods.
"But what about the Black Dragon Clan, my Lord? What should I tell them when they return from their mission with my clan members?" Nyfarella mentioned.
Leon paused for a moment before he replied, "After they subjugate the Great Blackrock Mountains, tell them to conquer the rest of the Starfall Dominion."
"Shadowtail, alone, can come and find me in the Infertile Plain's Darkmoon Tribe to collect the subjugation reward," Leon added.
"Understood, my Lord," Nyfarella nodded. Then, she quickly cupped her hands and prayed, "May have a safe journey and be victorious in all your battles, my Lord!"
Leon nodded.
After infusing recovery herbs into the Dark Fae Clan's water channels and transforming their freshwater into quality healing water, Leon departed with Aria, Darlene, and Duna.
Nevertheless, Leon had no intention of returning the Infertile Plains by foot.
He sent a mental message to Tak-si via their spiritual connection. Then, he had the realm spirit transfer them to the Infertile Plains directly.

Infertile Plains, Darkmoon Tribe
Inside the Chief Palace's Great Hall, Chief Valencia held a meeting with the Venerable Shamans, Half-step Battle Kings, and the chiefs of two other tribes.
However, only one of the chiefs was from the Seven Tribes Alliance, which was Chief Baskara of the Crimsonfog Tribe.
The other chief was Chief Skyhawk of the Sky Sword Tribe.
Together with the Crimsonfog Tribe, they merged with the Darkmoon Tribe and became a more powerful tribe.
Just by looking outside the Chief Palace, everyone can see that Darkmoon City had tripled in size.
They built new districts outside of the pre-existing city wall and formed the city's new outer and inner ring.
Nevertheless, only tents and huts were erected in the new districts outside the city wall.
Even with three weeks, only so much construction can be done with the ongoing threats from Central Region's warring tribes.
"Have the messengers returned with news from the other tribes in the alliance?" Chief Valencia solemnly inquired while she sat on her throne.
"They have," Chief Baskara nodded.
"The Fallen Star Tribe, Cold Raven Tribe, and Clearwater Tribe were adamant on keeping their independence. The Seven Tribes Alliance was formed due to that reason in the first place. However, they ended up merging with the Berserk Dragon Tribe to fend off the Central Region's threats."
"It's good that they didn't stubbornly persist in their independence. It would be foolish of them, considering they are cut off from us," Chief Valencia stated.
After all, the Fallen Star Tribe, Cold Raven Tribe, Clearwater Tribe, and the Berserk Dragon Tribe were located on the eastern side of the Weeping Forest.
"How are our water supplies and food? How much longer can we last?" Chief Valencia inquired after.
"We are still good on our water supply," Chief Skyhawk answered.
"Although less, the Celestial Water Spark's power hasn't been depleted yet. Food, on the other hand, is a big problem. We are running out of rations. It won't last another week. By then, we'll have to starve unless we find a new food source."
After Chief Shyhawk said that, the mood in the Great Hall became heavy.
He had led his Sky Sword Tribe to the southern region to escape the chaos of the central region. But, alas, the situation in the southern region wasn't much better.
It was hard to say what was better: a quick death through murder or a slow death through starvation.
"There's no other way around it," chief Valencia sighed.
"We have always hunted for our meat from the central region. But right now, the conflict between the four King Tribes in the central region is at its peak. The Battle God Palace's third young master has brought us momentary peace during this period. But the moment we step foot in the central region, we'll be swept up in the storm."
"Then what do you suggest we do, Chief Valencia?" the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman asked thoughtfully.
"Even if we don't starve to death, we'll be too weak to resist once the victor of the central region marches on our doorsteps. I, alone, will not be able to fend off all their attacks. Our warriors need meat to stay strong."
Chief Valencia frowned for a moment before she said, "It seems our only solution to the food shortage lies in the demon's territory."
"Although the demon's territory has plenty of demon beasts to hunt, that place is too heavy in miasma. We'll get sick eating meat from there," Chief Baskara argued.
The atmosphere became heavy once more. But in that exact moment, Leon also stepped inside the great hall with Aria, Darlene, and Duna.
"It's a bit heavy in here, huh?" Leon casually glanced around and commented.
When several people's gazes fell on Leon's figure standing by the entrance, they immediately shot up from their seats in shock.
"Y-young Master Leonhardt!"
