Starting from primitive world, building the strongest divine kingdom

Chapter 7: Official Succession as Priest



The next day.

As the sun rose and its rays streamed down, Enzo opened his eyes to find Tia sleeping soundly on his chest, her animal hide clothing discarded beside her.

Unable to resist, Enzo pinched Tia's plump thigh lightly and said, "You're quite the alluring little fairy."

Sensing something amiss, Tia woke up.

She greeted Enzo, "Good morning, Enzo. I'll go prepare some food. What would you like to eat?"

Enzo wasn't in the mood for food now. After the passionate encounter with Tia last night and spending the night in this thicket, he felt thoroughly soaked and uncomfortable.

So, he asked, "Tia, is there a place to bathe around here?"

Tia nodded, "Follow me."

With that, Tia put on her clothes and led the way.

Before long, they arrived at a small pond. Situated between two small hills at the back of the camp, the pond was fed by springs from the mountains, making the water crystal clear but extremely cold. However, that was no concern for Enzo now.

Yesterday, in order to heal Tia, he had proactively sought to inherit the priestly knowledge as suggested by Sovita.

He succeeded effortlessly.

Besides mastering a divine spell, his physical abilities had also improved significantly.

According to Enzo's own assessment, his strength and speed were no less than those of tribal warriors like Rhode and Anse, only lacking in combat experience.

But it's not a big deal.

Once it was his turn to intervene as the priest, the tribe would likely be on its last legs.

Pushing aside his scattered thoughts, Enzo jumped into the pond and mentally connected with the totem imprint—no, now it was the totem mark. It depicted a silhouette of a leaf with intricate veins.

Enzo murmured softly to himself, "Stimulate All Things?"

"Stimulate All Things" was the name of the divine spell he had acquired, capable of healing injuries, unlocking the hidden potential of creatures, and accelerating the growth of plants—not limited to just healing.

Such effects ignited a fervor within Enzo.

He had already devised a plan on how to maximize the benefits of Stimulate All Things.

At that moment, he felt a soft body pressing against him, rubbing against him incessantly.

Tia returned with a piece of animal hide from the camp, then jumped back into the pond with soapberry fruits in hand. She said, "Enzo, use this to wash. It will leave a fragrant scent."

Enzo nodded, indicating that Tia could continue.

But soon, Enzo realized something was wrong. Tia's little hands were not honest. Although they were carefully wiping his body, they always intentionally or unintentionally stimulated his sensitive parts... So, Enzo directly pulled Tia over, pressed her in front of him, and then inevitably splashed water in the pool.

Both of them had far superior physical fitness, and this intense battle lasted for over two hours.

When Enzo and Tia returned to the camp, the people of the Crimson Star Tribe were already preparing lunch, which was still roasted meat. The smell of burning made Enzo's stomach churn.

Tia explained on the side, "The tribe only has two meals a day, one in the morning and one in the evening. But we acquired too much meat from the Fang Wild Boars yesterday. If we don't eat it soon, it will all spoil."

Hearing this, Enzo realized the severity of the problem.

The tribe's food source was too unstable. Additionally, there were significant issue with food storage.

In the current Crimson Star Tribe, there were two hunting teams and one vanguard team.

The hunting teams were responsible for wilderness hunting to obtain food, consisting of two or three tribal warriors paired with a dozen or so strong men from the tribe.

As for the vanguard team—

Compared to the hunting teams, which primarily operated in the forests surrounding the camp, the vanguard team needed to gather information about other tribes or monitor changes in the population of beasts in the forests. Their range of activities was broader, and each time they went out and returned, it usually took more than half a month.

The captain of the vanguard team was Heru, the strongest tribal warrior of the Crimson Star Tribe.

It was just the beginning of summer, and while the temperature wasn't too high, the air was extremely humid. In such conditions, meat was highly prone to spoilage. The excessive amount of Fang Wild Boar meat could not only rot but also potentially bring about diseases, which was also a concern for Enzo.

Thinking of this, Enzo immediately sought out the priest, Sovita.

Coincidentally, Sovita was also looking for Enzo.

After they met, Sovita spoke first, "Lord Enzo, when the hunting team returns from the wild boar territory, the tribe will hold the ceremony for the succession of the priest. You will succeed as the priest in front of all the tribe members, officially becoming the leader of the Crimson Star Tribe!"

Enzo was somewhat surprised, "So soon?"

Priest Sovita smiled and said, "This is because your talent is truly exceptional. Moreover, you have acquired the knowledge of priestly inheritance and no longer need my guidance. According to the customs of the tribe, you are already a priest. When the hunting team returns, it is to let all the tribe members admire your glory!"

In reality, the decision was not solely based on those reasons.

There was some concern in Sovita's mind.

The fact that Enzo could become the priest of the Crimson Star Tribe didn't necessarily mean he couldn't become a priest of other tribes as well. After all, in the face of such terrifying talent, the status of an exile could be completely overlooked.

Therefore, making Enzo the priest as soon as possible was the most important thing to do at present!

Seeing Enzo didn't refuse, Sovita breathed a sigh of relief.

At that moment, the hunting team also rushed back.

Led by Rhode and Anse, the hunting team found Enzo. They brought over a dozen young Fang Wild Boars tied with vines and a furry-eared girl with a fox tail. Excitedly, they said, "Lord Enzo, these are the trophies the hunting team brought back for you!"

Sovita stepped forward, taken aback.

He pointed excitedly at two of the noticeably different wild boar piglets, saying, "This... these are the offspring of the Fangtusk Wild Boar King. No wonder the wild boars in the territory were so aggressive. It turns out the piglets were born."

Enzo nodded and looked towards the fox tribe girl.

The fox girl lowered her head, her slender arms and legs bound with vines. Only a few pieces of animal hide covered her private parts, while dozens of bruises adorned her body. Her once snowy-white fox tail was now tainted with filth, the fur matted and tangled, presenting a pitiful sight.

Enzo asked, "What is your name?"

The fox girl didn't respond, ignoring Enzo completely.

Seeing this, Sovita suggested, "Lord Enzo, let's lock this exile into the cave for now. Now that the hunting team is back, the ceremony for the succession of the priest can begin."

"Well," Enzo nodded, then pointed to the wild boar piglets and said, "Lock up these piglets as well. Feed them some wild vegetables, awaiting my further orders."

Sovita nodded, "Yes!"

After imprisoning the fox girl and the wild boar cubs, Sovita once again summoned all the tribe members to the sacrificial square and ordered them to take a large cut of the wild boar king's hind leg meat and offer it in front of the stone brazier.

He also personally smeared the blood of the wild boar king on the five stone pillars before solemnly announcing, "The Crimson Star tribe priest inheritance ceremony begins! Enzo will take over as the priest and become the only leader of the Crimson Star tribe! He will lead the Crimson Star tribe to conquer everything and become the strongest tribe!"

The cheers are like a tide sweeping through everything.

The people of the Crimson Star tribe kept shouting the name of Enzo, and everyone's eyes were filled with fanatical gazes.

Then, Enzo took the bone staff handed over by Sovita, held it in his hand, raised it high, and lightly touched the stone fire basin. The flames in the stone fire basin rose, but were compressed to a height of thirty centimeters under Enzo's control, at the normal level of the priest.

This is because of Sovita's reminder.

There are other tribes around the Crimson Star Tribe, and if Enzo's powerful talent is discovered by other tribes, it is highly likely to launch an attack.

Priests are representatives of tribal power.

If a tribe with potential is discovered, the majority of tribes will eliminate it to prevent it from developing and, in turn, eliminate the tribe they belong to.

The rules of primitive times were so bloody and cruel.

Only by surviving is the true winner.

But the other members of the tribe were not aware that Enzo had deliberately suppressed the fire of the tribe. They only saw the fire of the tribe grow stronger, indicating that the tribe became stronger, so their cheers became even louder.

The cheers lasted for half an hour, and the priest's succession ceremony was finally completed.

Sovita's old face showed a smile. The tribe had a new leader, and he was still such a powerful young leader. He didn't need to work so hard in the future.

However, as soon as Sovita's smile appeared, it suddenly froze.
