The supreme sovereign system

The next day was, as usual, cold. The commoners of the Wasteland Valley had a harsh morning, as the soil was infertile, they make most of their income selling fur from the animals they hunt, however, the animals that they could hunt were rabbits or other small animals, they couldn't go too far in the Jubila forest because that was a path of no return.

Alfonso woke up earlier than usual and went to the hall. After the conversation with Artemis, she went to a room to sleep, she wanted the principal room but after entering, she told him that this room reek of him, so she decided to go to another room.

Alfonso only chuckle with this reaction, obviously he knew her despite for men in general, so he didn't take it personal.

After some minutes, he began to read the book that the system gave him.

This book explains all about agriculture, from the types of ground that exist to in what kind of weather seeds could grow, after analyzing this book the entire night, he was somehow taken back, as a historian , he knew what kind of seeds he needed, he took Russia as a mold, he knew a few techniques that could use in this extreme conditions like the Hügelkulturs, however, these techniques were for a long-term plan, it will take at least 6 months to one year to simulate the conditions in which the seedlings could germinate.

"For now I have two goals, the first one is to stop the beast, the beast horde it's actually a blessing disguise as a calamity, if we make the right moves, we will have a lot of food to survive, my next goal is to take the first step in making this infertile land, fertile, or at least, we need to have the necessary conditions to germinate something, humans couldn't survive with only meat, we need to have something else with it… thankfully, the system with help with that" Thought Alfonso after looking at the store.

[Gaia´s blessing

Type: Elixir

Usage: 1 per bottle.

Cost: 50 Drachmas.

Description: This item contains the blessing of the titan Gaia, the mother earth. Any land will become fertile after the use of this elixir, this elixir can convert 1 cubic meter of infertile land in fertile]

"This elixir is quite good, however… 1 cubic meter…" Thought Alfonso.

Wasteland Valley was a big town and it could divide in 4 zones, the commoners zone, the agriculture zone, the border zone, and the main plaza.

The agriculture zone was huge, at least it had 200 to 300 hectares, however, it was actually called the agriculture zone to sound nice, if we had to be more precise, one should call it wasteland, the agriculture zone had the tools and appearance of one, however, nobody actually used it, there was a kind of vegetal that could germinate here, however, the process was a long one, and the probability of the seed of dying was at least 80%, only 10 or so families in the commoners were dedicated to this business, by the way, the vegetal in question was carrot.

"I need at least 50 of these bottles to build an orchard big enough to feed all the people in town, that's 2500 drachmas, I have in my disposition 500, so I have a long way to go… " Thought Alfonso while looking throw the window.

"Let's move to the next matter, Artemis"

Alfonso called Artemis who was sitting opposite to him, she was, as usual with her with outfit and her brown wings behind her back, however, something caught the attention of Alfonso. In her finger, there was a small bird, the bird was looking at Artemis while she did the same.

"Chirp… chirp … chirp" Said the Bird.

"Chirp… chirp… chirp?.... chirp…. Chirp …. chirp" Said Artemis.

"Chirp!" Say the bird.

"Chirp" Say Artemis.

After this "conversation" the small bird flew and went back to the forest. Alfonso, who was momentarily speechless before this scene, remember something.

"This should be the beast language ability, right?" Asked Alfonso.

"That's right, I was asking that fellow when did the beast plan to attack this town" Say Artemis.

"!? This information is huge!" Say Alfonso with an exciting tone of voice.

"Yeah, the little fellow told me that, based on the speed that they were moving, will attack in three weeks, there will be a total of 50 beasts which includes wolves, bears and falcons" Report Artemis.

"I kind of expected wolves and bears but… falcons?... you gotta be kidding me..." thought

Alfonso, while he feels that his headache was coming again.

"It's seems that "it" is moving again, so the weaker animals are escaping" Said Artemis.

""it"? What do you mean "it"?" Asked Alfonso

"The little fellow didn't know; however, he knew that "it" was also known as the king of the forest, it seems that "it" is a lot of trouble and had a huge appetite, "it" will eat everything that moves, that's why the animals are running away" Said Artemis.

"Will "It" come here?" Asked with a worried expression Alfonso.

"No, "it" never leaves the central zone of the Jubila Forest" Answered Artemis.

"I see, I almost got a heart attack there… well, at least, we know when the enemy is coming and who is, that is a huge advanced already, thank you, Artemis"

"Hmph, I say that I will give you my help , human, so this is why should be expected" Said Artemis with her usual cold face.

"Ok, we have a clear view now, so my need to move to the next phase, Artemis, you have the power of a normal human right now, however, your abilities makes you exceptional. Tell me with honesty, how many men will you need to repel the horde?" Asked Alfonso.

"If I include myself, at least we need 20 warriors who can keep busy the beast, as for how many archers, you only need me" Declared Artemis with a confidence voice.

I couldn't be helped, despite all, she was the goddess of hunt after all!

"…." Alfonso couldn't help but stay quiet for some time while considering some things.

"As far as I know… there are only 15 warriors in this town, they aren't even nearly enough…. Let's talk to the captain, he has fight the horde of beast before, maybe he can add some useful information" Said Alfonso while grabbing his cane and going out with Artemis.
