Episode 42-Wind of Change (2)
“There is a man named Garhan, the wolf of the rocky mountain. “They have recently attempted plunder and conquest and are rapidly increasing their power in this area… I only heard about them, but they say that the number of warriors under their command now exceeds 100.”
“These are conquerors who plunder around here. “I think I know who it is.”
The moment when Varun’s appropriate persuasion and Rakum’s decision came together to reach a dramatic agreement. Rakum told Varun, now an ally, what he knew.
Varun, who heard who the conqueror of this area was mentioned by Rakum, nodded, saying he thought he knew who that person was. The marauders who attacked first themselves recently. It was clear that they, including the shaman, were Garhan’s subordinates.
“Garhan will not stop subjugating countless small tribes and increasing his power. It will definitely extend further north and east. Someday they will come here. “More and more people like us who have been pushed out will appear.”
Rakum warned that Garhan, who was acting as a conqueror, would soon wipe out this area. Varun, who actually had direct experience dealing with the fragments, did not deny Rakum’s words.
Conquerors and marauders rising up here and there were major obstacles that would inevitably come one day.
But I had to answer what Rakum said. The question Lakum was asking now was essentially the same as asking whether they, who had bowed down first, could properly protect themselves from such a draft.
“No matter how many warriors they mobilize and how they attack in the future, we can win.”

“How on earth do you mean that? No matter how rich the land is, we…”
Rakum could hardly understand Varun’s leisurely answer. What Rakum has seen is only the tip of the iceberg. Varun did not even say half of what blessings they were receiving.
“With something like this?”
“uh!? “What is this!?”
But at that moment. When the Lakum tribe members completed preparations for urgent migration, the bodies of those present rose into the sky all at once.
Varun looked up at Rakum, who was lifted into the air along with the horse, with a shocked expression and laughed.
“He has accepted you. “Don’t be too scared, just trust yourself.”
“Sleep, just a moment! “There has never been a story like this!!”
Frightened, Rakum, like the other residents, let out a high-pitched scream that was unbecoming of a tribal leader and warrior. However, the scream did not last long as they quickly flew east to the village.
‘Maybe thirty at a time.’
As Rakum’s tribe became allies, his mouse control was unlocked and he continued to drag and click villagers across the screen. After discovering the efficiency of mouse control, there was no hesitation in using his mouse.
Varun, who was watching the scene on the desktop, looked up and counted the number of residents who were all struggling up into the sky and moving around holding their backs.
Because there was a limit to the number of people that could be moved at once, he had to use the mouse to move people as many as five times.

‘It’s nice to save time. I feel sorry for people who get motion sickness though.’
After Varun succeeds in persuading Rakum and achieves an achievement. I waited for them to finish packing. They, including the elderly and children, would have had to walk for a day, maybe two, to cross the screens and reach the village, but I had no intention of waiting that time.
The moment when the hostile or neutral relationship was resolved and Rakum’s tribe members became allies. I picked them up with activated mouse control and carried them to the village in one go.
There were 30 people who could be moved at once, but it didn’t take long anyway, so the move was completed in a few minutes by repeating it a few times.
“—.”
“—, –!”
The new residents, dumbfounded, looked at the village that appeared before them with blank faces. There were quite a few people who were nauseous and suffering.
But sooner or later they will get used to it, and they will move around without any problems like their seniors like Varun and Riena. Varun and Riena were now hanging on to each other and having a leisurely conversation.
‘They will take care of the people.’
With over 100 new residents coming to the village at once, it is natural to be confused. However, I didn’t really care. After all, it is the responsibility of those who came first to comfort them and teach them well.
Once they find stability with the help of their seniors, I can investigate their talents and abilities and place them in the right positions.
What I’m really interested in right now is how to encourage the residents to increase their power more actively, as happened today.
For that purpose, I am thinking about using a file transfer device to send a gift to Varun, who is my leader and has similar thoughts as me.
‘What on earth should I give you?’
The problem is what and how to give it.
When I received the gold ring that Varun offered me, I actually received it accidentally. When I selected the file that was in the form of a file when they were offering their loot, it popped out from the monitor.
I foolishly reached out and touched the monitor, but nothing changed.
‘if?’
Just to be sure, I searched my computer for the file I wanted to transfer using the transmitter. The first thing I reached for was a few photos in the photo file. Unusually, there was a division between files that could be transmitted and files that could not be transmitted.
‘500P per use. It’s really needlessly expensive.’
The price is not cheap, so it is difficult to send anything.
Points are a type of power that the master program uses to run the program. And considering that those programs were literally miracles for the people living on the desktop, I could understand why they were so expensive.
‘But you’ll still need it, right?’
After thinking about it for a while, I made a decision after seeing the residents bustling around on the screen. In my opinion, this expenditure is a necessary expenditure.
The trust and dedication that Varun and other residents show me. Although I was not as capable and absolute as they thought, I still had to repay their trust as a collaborator who shared an important mission.
There was no need for anything grandiose. No matter how cool a gift I prepare, it won’t be that great compared to what the programs I use produce.
Rather, symbolism seemed to be more important than functional aspect.
“Is this really happening?”
A little nervous, I opened the capture app and the Internet window together. I didn’t intend to use it for residents, but really just wanted to create an image file.
Afterwards, the things I searched on the Internet and found out were items that rulers used to strengthen their authority. Gorgeous crowns, bronze mirror-like accessories, treasured swords, etc.
The purpose of this gift was to show my support for Varun, so I had to give him something that would be helpful.
‘A sword would be better than a crown.’
I was torn between the crown and the treasured sword, but chose the sword. I’m not sure if the crown is meaningful to them, who lead a semi-nomadic lifestyle as a tribe, but they used the sword well.
Of course, since it was a sword given to a recognized leader, it was by no means a simple sword. Anyway, things like steel swords are now just items that are easy to obtain.
What I found, captured, and created as an image file on the Internet was a colorful and complex sword that looked like it would appear in a fantasy game.
A straight, pure white blade with extremely intricate and precise golden decorations. The large red jewel embedded in the guard sparkled.
“It’s okay, it’s okay.”
And my guess became reality. When I pressed the send button along with the message that file transfer was possible, the sword capture file scraped from the Internet was indeed transferred.
To me, it’s just a piece of image file. But it’s different for those who live on my desktop.
I could see the gift I had given them fall from the sky and fall on them with a flash of light.
“—!”
The seniors who were giving leisurely guidance to the new members, who were surprised to see a castle being built with cubic stone blocks, all shook their butts in surprise.
Varun also looked at it with wide eyes as it fell from the sky and hit the ground.
Response is good. As someone who had put in the effort to give it as a gift, I couldn’t help but chuckle.
“–. —!”
Soon, Varun carefully approached the treasured sword I gave him. The others probably thought that only their leader, Varun, was qualified, so they just stayed back and watched until he came forward.
‘good.’
And Varun carefully held it and pulled it out. The talented man immediately understood why I had given it to him, and he held it high, reminding the tribe members, including the new ones, who he was and where his authority came from.
This is it. Now they know the meaning of the reward I gave them and act for it.
Of course, right now, you’ll just end up going back into the game and farming resources and hunting monsters harder, but now you’ll be more active.

“It was true. Of course, flying all the way here was shocking enough.”
“He desires our prosperity. You definitely want us to become more numerous and stronger. That’s why you gave me this reward. “Is there any reason for us to refuse that?”
It was as he expected. Rakum, who was with his tribe members, ran to Varun with an incredulous look on his face.
His voice was full of excitement. This is probably the reaction anyone would have if they saw a scene where a treasured sword with no clue how it was made comes down from the sky.
Varun was even more satisfied that Rakum, the representative of these immigrants, showed such a reaction. Because Varun, the tribal leader, knows better than anyone else that what is most needed to unite the tribes is strong power and authority.
Varun himself was not a ruler with strong military power, even in his own opinion. However, now there is a powerful being behind him that no one can oppose, and that being is acknowledging him and giving him strength.
“If the guardian spirit is truly protecting us, there is no reason to remain silent. “We must step forward before others expand their influence further.”
“Yes?”
However, Rakum, a young and energetic warrior, was more radical than Varun. I was confident that if I had the help of a transcendent being, I could fight and win against the great powers that were growing in size.
‘If you can, you should do it.’
It wasn’t a bad opportunity. It is much more efficient if you participate with enthusiasm rather than forceful orders.
“Still, wait a little bit. “I wonder if you have any other thoughts.”
Of course, Varun, the tribal leader, was not actually number one when it came to deploying personnel and investing. The true number one in that area must be watching them right now, so Varun planned to move forward after arranging everyone as he intended.
