It’s Fine To Reincarnate To A Flame

Chapter 21: Publicize

The city’s construction was in full swing, and the tribes’ enthusiastic chiefs were working on their respective areas swiftly. However, their progress was a little inadequate.

The proposal that Tang Sen drafted this time covered content of all aspects. Although the tribes’ chiefs were very enthusiastic, they would be greatly disappointed if the effects weren’t ideal.

They had seen the magnificent view presented on the drawings. Although their progress was slow, the shock that the planned city brought left them with no chance to make any objections at all.

While the Minotaur Tribe and the Brazen Bull Tribe enthusiastically built the city, the smaller tribes were not idling about either.

The Brazen Bull Tribe’s seeds were distributed to the various tribes that had received Tang Sen’s blessing. After receiving the seeds, the various tribes began planting them eagerly.

The seeds—which had been blessed by a Divine Spirit—grew rapidly and had short maturation periods. Soon, many of the tribes’ seeds began sprouting.

In fact, every tribe was starving because of this significant problem. Even large tribes—such as the Wild Lion Tribe—found it difficult to maintain their supplies at times.

This was also the very reason that the Wild Lion Tribe’s tribesmen would begin attacking and invading smaller tribes when they were struggling with life. For the sake of sustaining their livelihood, such things were naturally inevitable.

But the Wild Lion Tribe gradually became more restrained in this aspect now that they had other options. After gaining a new lifestyle, the smaller tribes that had once been invaded by the Wild Lion Tribe began to treat the latter with hostility.

Almost all the smaller tribes’ people beamed with joy. Thanks to Tang Sen, they obtained food. They were also gradually freed from the tough life of lacking a stable food supply.

Many of the other tribes had also seen the changes in the lives of those tribes that worshiped Tang Sen. This was why they decided to muster the courage and worship Tang Sen as well.

Although the Saintess did not have much say in this matter, she still looked upset and sullen when she saw females among the gifts that the smaller tribes brought over.

The Saintess was originally given to the Divine Spirit as a tribute by her tribesmen. Although the Divine Spirit valued the Saintess for her competency, that matter had still left a mark on her heart.

As a woman, the Saintess naturally knew what consequences those women—who had been offered as gifts—would face after being rejected. Hence, the Saintess did not send those women back. Instead, she kept them by her side.

Without a doubt, the Saintess could not hide her actions from Tang Sen, but her actions didn’t infuriate Tang Sen. Instead, Tang Sen was rather pleased about what she had done. In fact, Tang Sen also disliked the idea of offering women as gifts.

Since the Saintess had made such a decision, Tang Sen was very satisfied with it too.

Fortunately, the Saintess acted appropriately and knew her limits. She did not hide the matter from Tang Sen and openly informed him about it instead. She also informed Tang Sen about the other tribes wanting to worship him.

As a Divine Spirit, Tang Sen naturally wouldn’t stop the smaller tribes from worshiping him. The more worshipers he had, the more power he would gain. His Godhead would also advance because of their faith.

Although Tang Sen actually put some effort into his own matters, he was much more interested in the Saintess’s behavior. As he stared at the Saintess kneeling on the ground, he asked, “Why did you do that?”

“They have siblings; they shouldn’t have been casually nabbed and brought over as gifts.” The Saintess actually did so because she was uncomfortable with their behavior. However, she felt a little confused when she had to explain the reason for her actions.

“Noble Divine Spirit, I acted presumptuously this time. Please spare the others from the Aquila Tribe,” said the Saintess, feeling anxious when she saw Tang Sen stay silent.

But Tang Sen said some reassuring words that put her at ease. “You’ve already done well. You’re right; these women should not be objectified and dumped here like they’re just some items. Although women do not have the same power as men, women should not be treated like this. What if there are no men in this world?”

Actually, Tang Sen did not keep his conversation with the Saintess a secret from the others. Although the Saintess would ultimately be the one to handle the matter, he still had to make his stand about this issue known.

It would be best if the women didn’t make any promises regarding this matter because the Saintess would face more than just a small tribe’s pressure if she were to handle the matter alone.

The Saintess would also face the pressure of the other tribes who believed in Tang Sen. Although the Saintess had been facing the pressure, Tang Sen’s choice would definitely be confusing for most people if things were to blow up.

Tang Sen decided that it would be better to create a buffer period to let those people try and accept his ideas. He wanted to see if these people could accept them.

Tang Sen was well aware that there was no need for much resistance right from the beginning. To the men of the Beastkind tribes, women were indeed a type of resource.

More women serving the Divine Spirit meant that there would be fewer women in their tribes. Hence, they would inevitably be upset because of it, even though they were worshiping the Divine Spirit and showing him respect.

Actually, the men could understand why Tang Sen said such words, but it would depend on how the Saintess handled the matter.

As the Aquila Tribe’s Saintess, she had the inherent ability to make correct judgments. However, this matter had to be handled differently. For the sake of this matter, Tang Sen even specifically took out some time to instill the idea of gender equality in the Saintess. This was so that she could impart these teachings to more people.

The party that suffered from gender inequality would hysterically retaliate after suppressing their emotions for such a long time. Such retaliation would do no good for either party, and a win-win solution would be the best.

Tang Sen understood this. Although he had vaguely seen some clues about the matter, he did not think of solving it.
