It’s Fine To Reincarnate To A Flame - Chapter 19

But Tang Sen wasn’t quite happy to see everything that was happening in front of him. Although it was true that he had saved many people this time and spared them from the fate of becoming slaves, Tang Sen knew that it was not a solution that would work in the long run.

As long as this matter’s interests existed, a large number of people would continue swarming over. In this world, morals and conscience would never trump interests and benefits.

Tang Sen had managed to save the people in front of him this time, but what about in the future?

He could save them once, twice, or thrice, but how could he save them for the fifth, sixth, seventh, or eighth time? He might not always be able to rush over in the nick of time. The Beastkind tribesmen were truly innocent and shouldn’t be losing their lives because of this matter.

Tang Sen slowly lifted up the Beastkind in front of him and burned away the rope and chains that bound them with a flame. “You guys are safe now. Return to your respective tribes.”

After hearing Tang Sen’s words, the Beastkind lowered their arms and expressed assent. They got a grip on their emotions and proceeded to leave the place one after another.

As he stared at their leaving backs, Tang Sen slowly began to ponder on a possible solution. The Wilderness was spacious but sparsely populated. There were barely any households, and the various tribes mainly relied on their tribe members to establish interaction with each other.

Although the wars between tribes had led to the demise of many tribes over the years, generally only a few tribes existed at a time.

Tang Sen found a place to start simulating the situation of the various tribes under him. In fact, there were not many of such tribes, but the distribution could be considered extensive.

The specific situation in every tribe was different. Each tribe’s preferred location and lifestyle of each tribe basically varied. This plot of land was barren but vast. In fact, it would have no problem supporting a large population. However, this matter would become troublesome once Tang Sen considered the factor of kidnapping.

Due to the situation in front of him, he may be able to handle a tribe like the Wild Lion Tribe— whose members looked up to the strong—but it would be tough to deal with those who were mild-mannered, such as the Brazen Bull Tribe.

One could never stay on guard all the time. In the beginning, the Brazen Bull Tribe would definitely be vigilant and keep their guard up because of this matter. However, they would only do so for a brief period of time. They would soon lower their guards because of the temporary peace.

Over time, they would let their guards down completely.

Everybody knew that a storm would likely follow after a period of peace and calmness. However, such people would still repeat their mistakes, even during the impending storm.

Although Tang Sen had only briefly interacted with those tribesmen, he could already feel that those people—who had died at his hands long ago—actually knew the Beastkind’s range of activity and nature very well.

The group had clearly done many such things for numerous years. However, the Chief had never mentioned the matter to him before. Either the Chief did not take this matter seriously or they had already given up over this period of time.

Based on his own experiences, Tang Sen actually believed the people in front of him more.

Tang Sen remembered a line from a famous poem which meant something along the lines of: “While your family is mourning in grief, others have long forgotten about it.”

The sorrow and joy of separations and reunions were different among humans, and that was probably the same for those here. Initially, Beastkind often lost a few of their kind due to their tough lives’ challenges, and the elders had probably already gotten used to it.

‘Should I change this habit of theirs?’ While pondering on this matter, Tang Sen obviously felt that he did not have to continue with it. However, he knew that it would not be easy to establish a new habit.

As a Divine Spirit, Tang Sen believed that they would not be slipshod about this matter for the time being. But it would definitely be difficult to keep it up for a long time. As he stared at the Beastkind—who had been kidnapped this time—and realized that most of them were strong men from the Brazen Bull Tribe, Tang Sen knew that some of their habits were deeply ingrained within them.

Tang Sen clearly knew that he couldn’t continue to deal with this matter forcefully. If he handed the matter over to the Saintess for supervision, it would actually easily result in conflict between the tribes.

Besides, there was a certain distance between the tribes, and the tribes’ strength also varied. Those who were weaker would make poor patrolling teams, even if security was tightened. If the tribes were to join forces and patrol together, it would result in many of the gaps in between being unprotected. Hence, Tang Sen dismissed the idea of a joint patrol.

But Tang Sen had a sudden flash of inspiration at this moment. ‘Since there are so many inconvenient places in the tribes, won’t gathering all the tribes’ members in front of me be a better protection method?’

If he could unite them into a city-state, there would be a lot of space to discuss the matters regarding security and safety.

Currently, it was extremely difficult to break through the walls that were built for the defense against foreign enemies. It was truly a beneficial facility.

At present, the tribes did not lack anything. He could group the members of the tribes according to their flairs and assign them to their respective tasks. That would create a microcosm.

However, the establishment of a city was clearly not something that could be done in a short period of time. He would have to spend some time and effort to decide on a location. Fortunately, after experiencing an ordeal, those who had transmigrated through the Miasma Forest would probably consider the possibility of being unable to return and thus should not show up deliberately.

They would have some time to deliberately complete the construction of the city.

Tang Sen was at all worried that this matter will be opposed by those people. As his most loyal followers, they would definitely adhere to his instructions and comply with his decisions.

Besides… building a city may not be simple for now but in fact, it would bring about a lot of benefits.

Firstly, the members of the tribe could be brought together and they could start getting closer together. Secondly, having a city would give the tribe a natural advantage, be it in terms of offense or defense.
