Village Head's Debauchery

chapter-603
"Not yet. But I am thinking about something and hoping it would work," Orion said, shaking his head in response.
"Forgive me for interrupting, but are you sure that you can come up with a solution for a problem that has troubled us for several millennia that easily?" Caretaker Naida said, narrowing her weary eyes at Orion.
Orion shifted his attention towards Caretaker Naida, whom he understood was the second oldest person before Caretaker Ivor, and shook his head in response.
"I am well aware of the difficulty of this issue and understand how it feels to hear someone who hasn't even lived past the early stages of his life say such a statement. So, although I might not be confident about coming up with a solution, there is no reason for me not to feel optimistic about devising one that I think might work," Orion responded, with a deep exhale escaping his mouth.
"Well, even if we have witnessed you shatter our perceived expectations repeatedly, I don't think that being optimistic…" Caretaker Naida wanted to say. However, before she could continue, the Village Chief instantly interrupted."Whether he is capable of coming up with a solution, being optimistic or not, as long as he is capable of coming up with a proper solution, is there anything else that matters?" The Village Chief asked, shaking his head at Caretaker Naida.
Although he understood her sentiments and was sure that everyone currently within the room did the same, by now, he thought she had already understood that a young man like Orion was someone who should not be dealt with using common sense.
Although she wanted to speak, Caretaker Naida held back her words and nodded in response, towards the direction of the Village Chief, "You are right, Chief. All that matters is that he comes up with a solution that can protect such a large number of people living in the midst of the Vylkr vines and keep the grasp of the Vylkr vines away from them. Then, I am willing to give him all of my support in building a settlement for the Prismerion race outside the mountains," Caretaker Naida said, her gaze focused on Orion as she nodded her head at him in reassurance.
Suddenly, another familiar voice broke out.
"Fortunately, I agree with Caretaker Naida. Suppose you are capable of coming up with a solution for this problem. In that case, I am also willing to support you in building a settlement for the Prismerion race, with the best materials you can find on the farm," Caretaker Ivor said, with an intense glint flickering through his eyes.
If Orion comes up with a solution for this problem that would completely remove the burdens from the warriors and help them expand the forest once more, forget about finding a clay settlement to build the settlement on. Even if Orion needed to build it somewhere else and came to him for materials, he would provide him with all the best building materials he could obtain from the farm.
"I agree. I am also willing to provide my full support in building a settlement for the Prismerion race outside the mountains," Caretaker Shani said as she stared at Orion with a warm smile, as though she could tell he was capable of achieving such a feat, having witnessed him do similar things several times already.After all, he was the main reason her child was still alive, so why should she doubt him?
"I am also willing to provide my support in building a settlement for the Prismerion race outside the mountains if you are capable of coming up with a solution for this problem," Caretaker Nala said.
She and everyone else weren't paying attention to the fact that Caretaker Shani was willing to offer her support, no matter the results.
"Ahem! Since everyone else has agreed, I don't see any reason for me to withhold mine. If you are capable of coming up with a solution for this problem, I am also willing to provide my support in building a settlement for the Prismerion race outside the mountains," Caretaker Zola cleared her throat and said, staring at Orion seriously with a hint of curiosity buried deeply within her eyes.
As the youngest Caretaker and key figure in the room, she was naturally even more curious about how Orion would pull off such a feat and if he could do so.
Seeing that one of his goals had been achieved, Orion smiled broadly as he shifted his gaze from Caretaker Naida, Caretaker Ivor, and others. He nodded in response, saying, "Since all of you have made such an agreement, then I will naturally try my best to not disappoint you and come up with a solution to such a problem."
They nodded their heads in response silently.
Meanwhile, witnessing this scene from his elevated platform, the Village Chief exhaled tiredly, understanding that Orion had already achieved his aim, with all of the Caretakers agreeing to help him build a settlement for the Prismerion race. However, a shiver couldn't help but also pass through his spine at that moment as he thought about what might really happen if Orion did come up with a solution that would keep a large gathering of individuals safe within the presence of the Vylkr vines and keep the Vylkr vines away from them.
"Since all the key figures have agreed, I'll also give you my word. If you are capable of coming up with a solution for such a problem, then the Village will wholly support in helping you build a settlement for the Prismerion race outside the mountains," The Village Chief said, his gaze fixed on Orion as his voice resounded around the four corners of the room.
"I, the Village Chieftess, also agree with my husband, the Village Chief," Zara said, her voice following soon after with a firm expression as her eyes scanned Orion, wondering what the young man before her was up to this time.
