True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules

Chapter 201

Winnie’s words struck a chord with the chief, who promptly spoke on behalf of the villagers, accepting her proposition without a second thought.

“I didn’t realize the guardían spirit has been watching over us from the shadows all this time. We’re truly indebted and ashamed. Whatever the guardian needs, we’re prepared to follow through.”

It was a debt they owed to the mysterious entity.

Noticing the villagers nodding in agreement, Winnie knew they meant every word. She glanced once more at the werewolf standing in the distance, thought for a moment, and addressed the villagers again.

“Just because the werewolf got some blessings from nature, doesn’t mean it’s divine and needs its own shrine. The stone chapel up on the hill can be a place to leave offerings, no need to engrave any name on it. Moreover, if you truly wish to make amends, you can dedicate a plaque to the village’s ancestral hall in its honor. Daily offerings there will convey your sincerity.”

After this ordeal, it was clear the werewolf wouldn’t continue its protection over the village. From now on, they would have to rely on themselves and the mandrakes they cultivated.

Dedicating a plaque in the hall served two purposes: it fulfilled a bond between the spirit and the villagers, harnessing the power of their faith to aid its recovery. It also left a thread of connection between them.

So long as the village hall held the spirit’s plaque, the werewolf would sense their genuine devotion over time. Even if it didn’t protect the village as before, it wouldn’t ignore them should disaster strike.

The chief saw no issue with honoring the werewolf. The deep–rooted connection between the werewolf and their ancestors justified it. He eagerly agreed and even decided to have the hall’s carvings and murals updated to include the werewolf’s likeness.

Winnie asked Cox to find a piece of jade, intended for the chapel to aid the werewolf’s cultivation. She planned to create a simple Spirit Gathering Array with it.

During her ascent, she noticed that the mandrakes fields of Cloverfield Cottage had depleted the spiritual essence of the mountain. It was remarkable that the werewolf managed to cultivate under such conditions, sharing what little energy there was with the villagers‘ crops.

The Spirit Gathering Array would help to re–concentrate the mountain’s spiritual essence. With the nourishment of this essence, combined with the villagers‘ daily offerings, the werewolf’s recovery would be significantly expedited.

This was the full extent of the agreement between Winnie and the werewolf. With a consensus reached, the werewolf and its kin departed.

Back in the live–streaming chatroom, the audience was left bewildered.
