My Farm System: Reaching The Top In The Parallel Earth!-Chapter 221 221
Since everyone would become one big family, after the display of power, the Chief had Rezen take care of the injured
'Seems like I wouldn't be able to enter the forest tonight again' Rezen thought with a sigh as he invited the new members of the tribe to his hut and Stone Head also followed while warning the tribesmen with his eyes
As injuries are very common in the tribe, Rezen already developed his skill. He cleaned the wounds of those seriously injured with alcohol to minimize infection while he only used water for those that aren't that injured
Rezen doesn't have a lot of alcohol and he would only use them when necessary
After cleaning the wounds, Rezen would rub his herbal paste that has the effect of promoting cell activities to hasten the healing process
The last part is using a piece of clean beast skin to cover the wounded areas and after that, he is done
Rezen is not an authentic healer, after all, the only reason why he was able to heal people was thanks to the recipes that Ivy provided him with
With the help of Spirit Plants, Rezen gained the ability to heal wounds
"U-um, may I know your name?" The woman that Rezen just finished treating asked while looking at him in a rather flirtatious way
"My name is Rezen. I finished dressing your wounds, please give way to the next patient" Rezen replied while ignoring this woman
He doesn't have time for romance and he tactfully dodged this woman that clearly likes him
Rezen as a healer has a high status in the tribe and since these women would be treated as commodities that have the duty to give birth to babies, wouldn't they choose someone with a high status if given the chance?
Rezen continued with his work and basically, all five women that became the new members of the tribe tried to make a move on him but he ignored all of their advancements
"Wow! You're really popular, Rezen! Well, aside from the lack of muscles, your face is not bad, in some ways, you are even prettier than women!" Stone Head commented while nodding his head in approval and Rezen almost kicked him in the nuts
Who is prettier than a woman?!
Unfortunately, although that left a bitter taste on Rezen's tongue, he must agree. Due to the circumstances of the tribe, both men and women are muscular and has a rough appearance
Since Rezen didn't grow up in such a harsh environment, he looks like a fragile and beautiful flower among the corpse flowers
Fortunately, while he is considered attractive, the tribesmen still prefer muscular men since they view that as a sign of power that is needed to survive in this world
"Hahaha, I'm done treating the patients now. I'll go check the farm, Stone Head" Rezen said
With the addition of the new members of the tribe, Rezen doesn't plan on sneaking out at night again
Who knows if one of those people suddenly had health complications and they went to Rezen's hut just to see he was gone?
Rezen is not a real healer and he cannot properly diagnose those people to check their condition
Since he could sleep tonight then he might as well use his afternoon to check the progress of the farm
"Alright, take care of yourself! I'm going to hunt now!" Stone Head excused himself
Thanks to Stone Head's new magic spell, hunting has become easier and safer for him and he managed to hunt more magic beasts than usual
That alleviates the food problem of the tribe to an extent
With Stone Head gone, Rezen went to the farm. Since the seeds were planted not too long ago, they still haven't sprouted
"If the tribe has enough food to last until the winter, I'll have more time for myself" Rezen thought as he crouched down
Since the tribe already knew about his ability, there is no need to hold back
Rezen stretched his hand and threads of mana appeared at the tip of his fingers. These threads of mana entered the soil and they were absorbed by the potato seeds underground
Soon, the seeds started to sprout. The more mana of Rezen they absorbed, the faster they grew
"Argh... it's hard to maintain this many mana threads" Rezen muttered through gritted teeth but for the sake of having access to magic again, he forced himself to maintain the flow of mana until the potatoes grew stems and lush leaves
"Huff... huff... huff... if I was at my peak, this much is nothing" Rezen can't help but think and he can't wait for the time when he could finally use magic again
"I-is that your ability? I-I never saw anyone capable of doing that"
Rezen turned his head to the source of that voice and he saw the old man from the Yusura Tribe
Since the other person is a Junior Mage, Rezen stood up and answered him respectfully
"It is indeed my ability and I want to use it with our potato farm"
"Potato farm?"
At that, Rezen nodded his head. "Yes, this is a new source of food for our tribe. We plant one potato and in time, they would grow into more potatoes"
"Aren't potatoes hard and inedible? Why are you purposely growing them?" The old man asked, he can't believe that someone would purposely grow potatoes to consume them
"That's a common misconception. As long as the potatoes are cooked properly, they are completely edible" Rezen answered confidently before he continued. "By the way, may I know your name?"
"Ah! Right, I forgot to tell you my name. The people of our trib— previous tribe call me Skinny Yan"
Rezen can't help but stare at this old man and he internally agreed. This person is really skinny, befitting of the name given to him
"My name is Rezen, I hope we could get along"
"I want to thank you for treating them. All of them praised your ability" Skinny Yan said sincerely and Rezen nodded his head
"I am the tribe's healer, I was just doing my job"
What a joke! Rezen has his current status all because he could heal people. If he doesn't do that then he would become a normal member of the tribe. No, he would even have a lower status since he can't use magic
"Still, we are grateful to you. I heard that you like collecting Spirit Plants. If there is anything that you wish to have, we'll try to search for them whenever we go out to hunt. I hope you could continue helping us integrate with the tribe"
Without Skinny Yan knowing, Rezen already read him
'It seems like this old man is quite smart. The Chief is on guard against them as they don't really know them yet. Stone Head has a rough personality just like the others and it would be hard to catch his heart and I became their next target. As the tribe's healer, I have a high status but I also look easygoing. If they want to have an easier life in the tribe, they need me to help them integrate with the life easier' Rezen thought with interest
"I'll do my best" Rezen replied and Skinny Yan patted him on the head as if he was a grandfather patting his grandson's head. He might have done that to initiate closeness with Rezen
"Ding! Detecting a broken magic artifact at the peak of the Junior Rank. Master is advised to take Skinny Yan's ring"
"The remaining energy of the ring could help Master use magic again and the required mana stones to recover the farm would be cut in half"
Upon hearing that, Rezen's eyes trembled. A broken magic artifact?
Magic artifacts are like the Chief's wand and they are similar to Mystic Items. However, while Mystic Items could only be used using the power of 7th rank mages, magic artifacts are different
Depending on the grade, even magic apprentices could easily utilize a magic artifact
It's just that magic artifacts are precious and it was already a miracle that the Chief even has one
Rezen didn't expect that the new member of the tribe would actually possess a magic artifact!
Rezen's eyes can't help but stare at the ring of Skinny Yan
The ring looks quite exquisite. The shank was green in color as if it was made from green jade and the head has a small white stone on it
Rezen cannot sense anything from that ring but if Ivy says that the ring is a magic artifact then it is a magic artifact and he must have it by hook or by crook! 𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺
"Grandpa, what's the ring on your finger? It looks beautiful!" Rezen asked as if he was merely curious and he doesn't plan to take the ring
"Ah, this?" Skinny Yan immediately took his hand back as if he was protective of the ring
