73 Preparation For Winter.

'Aron was right. I am useless and you are useless too…' She thought and her second personality kicked in and screamed inside of her mind.

'STUPID! You believed in words in this evil human! KILL THEM ALL! YOU WILL BE KILLED AND RAVAGED BY THEM! GET RID OF THEM! GIVE ME CONTROL!' It screamed with fury inside of her mind, still Rose was quite calm.

'I cannot let your grudge against humans… waste my life. I don't want to hear you anymore.' Rose's words muted all trials of second personality to talk. 

'I want to be useful…' It was great moment, and she decided to search for job that could help people.

Aron was organizing a.s.signments for villagers, and some people were a.s.signed to lumbering the word and others were preparing warm clothes. Few of them were tasked to capture remaining animals alive for him.

"Good morning, Aron." Rose tried to greet him with awkward expression, their last conversation wasn't pleasant experience. She thought that Aron might be still mad at her.

"Good morning." Aron wasn't interested in conversation with her at all, so his response seemed forced and she could hear irritation in his voice.

"I want to help too. Can you give me some work?" They didn't waste time anymore, and Aron put her with women taking care of weaving clothes from linen.

Everyone was busy in the village, winter was coming in slow speed. 

'I need to visit Clay village. Copperhead Village will be last….Hmmm.. Red maple Village. I totally forgot about it.' This village had hunter's family, and it was far from Amber Village. His speed could make this journey short, however it will still take day or so to get there.

His training with languages allowed him to reach advanced level of language decrypting, it was great experience to be able to decode languages with almost zero similarities of his own. It was almost something like guessing meaning of letters and words.

'It's great skill. I would question validity of those guesses if not system's help.' The system wasn't logical thing, and if he did such decryption in his previous world. People would consider him as fraud with such method of encryption.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.

His unknown pack from Earth was almost finished, and he didn't get much useful things. There was one scroll about Buddhist mantra, and it was actually useful for his 'anger' issues. The people believed that every monk was bald man without any desire. There were Buddhist pract.i.tioners that weren't bound by celibate. Those rules were made to allow monk or priest focus on their faith, isolate themselves from mortal desires.

'I will use this technique to calm my mind.' His thoughts fell on technique, and he stopped practicing. The gluttonous physique was hard to practice, and hunger was hard to endure.

'This will be to problematic for time being. I need to improve my ranch.' There were only few spiritual pigs in his ranch, not even one of other animals evolved. It was quite disappointing, and predicting needs of the 3rd stage of a gluttonous physique, he would go bankrupt.

He left Amber Village and went to Clay Village. In his surprise people managed to acc.u.mulate some bricks and paper, they stopped working on those tasks as they needed to prepare for winter. 

"Hey, kid! There is not time for your tasks…" Alex started to explaining himself to Aron, atmosphere became uncomfortable.

"Stop. I understand. I didn't come for those things. I will take paper and bricks from you in exchange for linen and some wool. What do you think?" Aron's offer was heaven sent for his village, every year some people died of malnutrition and lack of warm clothes. Winter wasn't merciful for poor villagers. 

"Kid…I don't know what to say. I can only accept this deal." His voice contained grat.i.tude and happiness, and those people were his responsibility and Aron allowed him to save them from danger.

"I have food to for exchange. Animal products, grain, fruits and vegetables. We can make a fair deal." His storage contained amount of food that could feed 10 villages like this one. Exchanging some of his resources for grat.i.tude and future subordinates wasn't bad deal.

"Tell villagers to focus on preparation for winter. You can work on my task later." His paper project was important, however there were mills in Amber Village that could create necessary product.

"Thanks, Boss! You don't know how much those things mean to our village!" Alex started to talk about recent events in a village, and he even asked about rumors of him slaying the giant wolf. 

"I didn't slay strongest one without help. Rirak a.s.sisted me." Those rumors were bizarre, how those people communicated with each other on distance.

"Ahh. It's Mark. He is traveling from one village to another. You know… he is courting the daughter of one of the ranchers… He brings news from time to time." Their method of communication was simple, even in such hard times there were some people traveling great distances on their feet.

'Training birds to deliver messages? I will try it later. I need to master my Animal Breeder profession.' There was animal trainer profession that could actually help him with this project, however progress on Animal Breeder was slowed down by other things.

Aron traded his goods with Alex, and it wasn't really fair trade. Exchanging winter necessities for some rocks and processed paper was crazy in Alex mind. 

"I will visit during winter. You can always send someone to me if you lacked something for winter." Aron promised those people a better future, so he couldn't allow them to die from hunger or a cold. Those were first steps to strengthen his position and open people's minds for change.

'Sooner or later. All of them will follow each of my order!' It wasn't hard to achieve, and still Aron wanted those people to allow him to lead with their own wills. 

'They might be stupid. They might be weak…however not everything can be achieved by fear and power.' A ruling by fear is simple and he could achieve things through harder means, without unnecessary bloodshed.
