Raising A Few Wives in a Beast Apocalypse-Chapter 500: Gratitude

A while later...

Sarah kept her words as she and the others really managed to prepare in less than an hour. Then again they were Evolvers and didn't have much stuff anyway so.

Muku and the girls had hoped they'd take longer actually. After all, they were having fun playing with the child. Yeah, after a while all of them had caught Audrey's baby fever.

Even Muku. This made him want to give proper thought to a name for the little boy. He was planning to hold a meeting specifically for that later on. And with how the girls were enjoying playing with the toddler, they'll definitely love to participate.

Anyway, after the group of more than seven hundred people finished preparing, Muku told them to all gather together closely.

This confused them greatly as it would make moving hard but they did as they were told.

Then Muku waved his hand.

Whoosh!

Like magic(which it was) they all disappeared from the mountain caves. No matter how far away from Muku they were, they were taken away...

Honestly, even if they were kilometres away from him he would have easily taken them. But that would require more energy. So he had them huddle together just to make it easier on his mana pool...

In an instant, they all appeared inside the embryo on empty land.

They were all shocked and confused because of what was happening.

There was a little fear mixed in too since they couldn't sense any mana in the air. Which had become as common to them as oxygen by that point.

"Don't panic every. You're safe. Currently,

you're in our world. A world untouched by the apocalypse. A world where you're free from fear of not seeing the next day because of beasts. Now, if you look to your left, you'll see a castle. That's where I'll reside. On the opposite side of that castle is another settlement. You're free to interact with them as you wish. However, it would be best if it's only women who try at first since men aren't viewed too well there. Now onto you, I assume you have capable earth elementalists. They are the ones who'll create your residence. If not, I can find you some from the other settlement. Are there any questions?" Muku explained everything he thought was important to the group.

"Ah yes... Are we free to stay here forever?" It was actually Sarah who asked the question.

But then again, with what she had experienced, and her child's safety, it was understandable why she would ask that.

"You're more than welcome to stay. However, your good situation is all on you. We'll get you grains. And maybe some unranked beasts to rear, but after that, you'll be on your on" Muku replied.

As soon as his words fell many began crying on the spot.

Not that they weren't sad. It was the opposite actually. They were so happy that they had finally found a safe place after so much struggling for years...

But of course, they were a bit sad as well. This was because their loved ones who passed away didn't live to see this day.

As they cried, Muku and the girls were hit by a sudden wave of Belief energy. It was at least thirty times more than that from Lisa's group that had more people.

It was quite surprising since that group had more than a thousand people while this one had all slightly over seven hundred.

It seemed the number didn't determine the amount of belief someone gave.

Which was understandable if you thought about it. After all, some people felt strongly while others didn't.

Not to mention that the reasons for the belief were different. The first kind from Lisa's group was induced by a show of power while this was induced by genuine gratitude.

As for why it wasn't Muku who just got the KP, well he had been involving the girls from the start so Sarah's group really thought it was a group effort.

The girls were really grateful for this. Some were already planning on giving Muku a happy ending that night to show their gratitude. They began eyeing each other scouting the competition. They were now in a race to see who would get to him first.

While they did that, Muku realised something. They hadn't told Lisa's group about the chance to stay in there forever. Maybe that would get his group more Belief energy.

With that thought in mind, he decided to speak with Lisa later on. She knew them best. So she should know how to speak in a way that gives the most belief energy.

Would she like the act of treachery? No. But she was part of his group now so she had to get with the program. Not to mention that she was also benefiting and knew just how important belief energy was for them in a world that was constantly getting more and more dangerous...

For that reason alone, she'll definitely do it. She was quite objective when she had to be. And it wasn't like they'd be harming them.

"Before I leave you to it. I'll have you know. You're also free to go out when you want. Just look for anyone from my group. They'll open the way for you. Oh, we live by the basic human code in here. So if you do anything unethical, or straight up evil like rape or murder, we'll send you out forever... Well, that's if you steal or something. But if you do the other two or something just as bad then death is what awaits you. We don't hold trials here. But if you commit a crime, trust us, we'll know. I mean, after what you went through, living honestly shouldn't be hard right?... Enough of that, now do you need any help building or what?" Muku added before leaving.

"Understood Your Highness. And yes please, we'd appreciate it if we could have some help building" Sarah spoke in such a formal way that Muku almost cringed himself to death.

It seemed knowing that he owned a haven made her impression of him climb even higher. Hell, she was steadily providing him more KP than Lisa did at her peak, and before Sarah, no one had come even closer.

Speaking of which, the belief energy he got from Lisa was decreasing by the day. Was the ungrateful girl getting too comfortable with him?

Now that he thought about it, he wasn't getting anything at all from the other girls in his group. Did they only love him without any belief or something?

Was he a lovable clown to them? He was definitely going to have a talk with them about it later. They had to explain themselves!...

"Please don't call me that. Just address me as leader or boss or anything else that's not that. Even calling me Mr Chisen is better than that" Muku immediately put Sarah down before her way of addressing him caught on to the others.

He wasn't a king and had no desire to be one. Leading his own household was chaotic enough, so why would he want to lead everyone else's?

Sure, he knew that the way he was being addressed didn't change the fact that he really was the supreme leader here.

But he felt that being a supreme being and being a king were different. After all, a supreme being only has to be supreme and get involved whenever they feel like it. But a king's job is literally being involved all day everyday. Something he wanted no part in.

In fact, after this, Sarah's group will likely deal with the girls just like how Lisa's group did.

In fact, Lisa's group was in a better situation because of her high position. Unlike Sarah's group which didn't have anyone worthy of note.

"Okay... Leader" Sarah changed the way she addressed him. She felt that it underplayed his power but it's what he wanted so...

"Good. Now, as for the help. Talk to this lady right here. Her name is Lisa. She'll help you get some people. And if you ever need anything that has to do with building structures and such, she's the one for you. For anything else, you'll see this one, she'll direct you in the right direction. Her name is Audrey" Muku immediately started shirking responsibility.

The girls rolled their eyes but didn't say anything. In fact, they were more than willing to prevent him from interacting with other women unnecessarily.

While his bloodline being under control meant that he wasn't as fickle as before. Like his incident with Lisa. It was never bad to be extra careful.

They didn't think he'd go for his dead friend's widow, but you never know what fetish someone has so...

"Okay. Thank you" Sarah expressed her gratitude.

"Cool. Now if you'll excuse..." Muku was about to turn and leave when he was interrupted.

"Wait... Sarah and the baby should come stay with us. The group's matters can be left to her second in command. We promised to give this child the best life after all. If she wants to deal with the matters here first then it's fine, but she'll live with us. I can take the baby now and she'll follow after she's done... How does that sound to you, Sarah?" Audrey interrupted. She was still holding the child in her hands unwilling to return him.

"... If you're offering then I'm more than willing to accept. Thank you. And please, take care of him for me while I handle things here. If he becomes problematic, please feel free to call for me..." Sarah accepted the deal.

She felt quite awkward thinking about it, but if it provided her child with the best environment for growth then she was okay with it.

It was only a little awkwardness after all.

"Great! See you later then. We'll leave you to it" Audrey spoke happily.

She merrily took the baby away with the others. Only Sarah, her group and Lisa were left to sort their matters out...
