Just then, 'Sharp Antlers' approached and reported.
"Chief! It's the fierce wolf and his people."
"okay."
"As I said last time, there are a lot of wolf clan people. Please understand even if the 'fierce wolf' speaks badly."
"Yeah."
I nodded with a calm expression. 'Sharp Deer Horn' stepped back and spoke to the chieftains of each clan, asking them to prevent any unexpected incidents from occurring.
"Because I don't know where it will go."
"I must also give instructions to our clan warriors."
The warriors of the Shawnee tribe took their positions, each holding their weapons, their eyes slightly tense. Instead, the Royal Guard warriors were leisurely escorting me.
After a while, the 'Ferocious Wolf' and fifty warriors of the Wolf Clan appeared. The 'Ferocious Wolf' ignored me and greeted the Shawnee chiefs with cold expressions.
"I guess everyone is free. It's great to see them come this far."
Regardless of faction, the chiefs of each clan of the Shawnee tribe were squirming in annoyance.
"Tsk tsk tsk! It's so hard to look at your face like this···"
"How nice it would be if I could attend the meeting. I wouldn't have to go through all this trouble."
"Sometimes I wonder if the Wolf Clan are really our Shawnee people."
"I know."
The 'Ferocious Wolf' maintained his composure despite their sarcastic remarks.
"Even though I just said hello, I'm talking so much. Who would want to attend?"
'Singing Water', the only one leading the rabbit clan, greeted 'Ferocious Wolf' with a smile on her face.
"Your face has brightened up. I hope to see you often in the future."
"······"
The 'fierce wolf' did not even respond to the greeting, but only looked at me now, looking me up and down.
"It's big."
Phew!
'You seem quite stubborn.'
Dark eyebrows and tightly closed lips. Even in his deep thoughts, his disposition was clearly revealed.
[Ferocious Wolf]
[Affiliation: Shoni Tribe, Chief of the Wolf Clan, Great Warrior]
[Alignment: Strong fighting spirit, a fierce warrior who does not fear death.]
[Ability]
Stamina: 21
Strength: 17
Agility: 14
Wisdom: 14
Command: 10
Considering that he had leadership skills, there was a high possibility that he would become a very capable subordinate.
However, judging from the fact that he was shown to have a strong fighting spirit, it seemed like he wouldn't give in easily.
As expected, the 'Ferocious Wolf' spoke bluntly.
"First, I want to see with my own eyes whether the buffalo can be tamed as the legend says."
At those words, the chiefs of the Shawnee tribe stepped forward in my stead.
"I think we can just ignore it since we saw it."
"okay."
"If you're really curious, come to our village and check out the buffalo in the barn."
The 'Ferocious Wolf' turned away without saying a word to them.
"Go. I will show you where the buffalo herd is."
"······"
I just laughed because the 'ferocious wolf' who acted like a lone wolf was so ridiculous.
'If you want to get competent subordinates, you have to be willing to take on things like this.'
Other chiefs of the Shawnee tribe approached and spoke with embarrassed expressions.
"Chief, we will apologize on your behalf."
"···There's no need to be dragged around by that guy."
I said it as if I was okay.
"My body is also stiff. Let's try taming the buffalo again."
In any case, it was necessary to secure a few more buffalo for genetic diversity.
* * *
Ummmmmm!
The buffalo I was riding started to run wild, but at some point, its movements became slow and calm.
"Yeah, that's good."
He no longer refused my touch. The buffalo we tamed this time is also a female. As I moved the reins left and right, the buffalo began to move in that direction.
'Okay!'
The first time may have been a coincidence, but the second time in a row I tamed a buffalo, the Shawnee people again looked at me with awe.
"How can you handle a buffalo so well?"
"It's amazing every time I see it."
In particular, the 'fierce wolf' and the wolf clan members were staring blankly with astonishment as if they couldn't believe their eyes even though they were seeing it with their own two eyes.
After jumping down lightly from the buffalo, I handed the rope over to the 'stubborn bear' and 'heavy snowstorm' who were just coming towards me.
"Tie up the buffalo so they don't run away."
"All right."
The buffalo is obedient only to me, not to everyone. Is that why? 'The Stubborn Bear' and 'The Blizzard', with the help of the Royal Guard warriors, carefully tied the wild buffalo to a large rock.
Meanwhile, I walked confidently towards the 'fierce wolf' who had not yet acknowledged me as the chief.
"Is there anything left to prove?"
"······"
After a moment of hesitation, the 'Ferocious Wolf' spoke with a fighting spirit in his eyes.
"If you can beat me one-on-one, I will recognize you as the great chief of our Shawnee tribe."
"······"
I could feel the sincerity in his words.
'I guess I'll have some good subordinates.'
I liked him, so I happily accepted the 'Ferocious Wolf's' challenge to a duel with a meaningful smile on my lips.
"I won't say two things with one mouth."
* * *
puck!
The 'Ferocious Wolf', who had been hit in the chest by my fist, rolled on the floor again.
Aaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!
Even though he had adjusted his strength, the 'Ferocious Wolf' struggled to get up from his seat with a pained expression, even though it must have been quite painful.
"You got hit like that and still got back up. That's amazing."
"I see why the fierce wolf is a great warrior."
"Rather, it's more venomous than before."
"Just don't give up."
The Shawnee tribesmen were watching the 'ferocious wolf' being brutally torn apart by me with complicated expressions.
His face was covered in bruises and his leather clothes were tattered. I continued to provoke his fighting spirit as if I was having fun.
"If you have the strength to fight, then come at me. I will keep fighting you."
"······"
The 'fierce wolf' was unable to answer and kept breathing heavily.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
At that moment, the 'ferocious wolf', who had caught his breath, charged towards me fiercely.
Boohoo!
I got hit so many times that even the punches he was throwing at me seemed too slow. I turned my head slightly to avoid the punch, and before I knew it, my right foot had struck the 'ferocious wolf's' neck.
Phew!
There was a fairly loud impact and the 'Ferocious Wolf' fell to the ground.
Crash!
The 'ferocious wolf' lying on the floor stared at the cloudless blue sky with venomous eyes.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
"I will serve you as chief for the rest of your life."

The Lenape tribe, a village that 'dwells in the water'. A 'water-dwelling' village selected as the central city for each administrative district.
Before the general assembly held in the fall, a council was held in which the chiefs of the villages included in the same administrative district gathered.
The chiefs looked satisfied as they toured the interior of the newly built council building.
"It's much cleaner and nicer than a shack."
"Every time I look at it, the tiles on the ceiling are amazing."
'Cool Wind', the delegate and chairman of the council, conducted the meeting with a calm demeanor.
"···The council has issued a policy. Each village should build a school so that all the villagers can learn Hangul, the alphabet of the gods. Everyone wants to hear how the school is progressing."
The chiefs of each village began to speak in turn, reporting.
"···Everyone in our village learned the letters of God without exception."
"···Because the construction of the school was delayed, I have only just begun to learn Hangul."
For a while, meetings continued in the town hall on various topics.
"···Thanks to the people dispatched by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, we have finished planting the sweet potatoes and are waiting for the harvest in a few months."
"···The construction department taught us how to build a well. There are currently three wells in the village."
"···For now, we are planting wild rice along with corn, but the harvest doesn't seem to be that great."
After a while, the 'Cool Wind' spoke, concluding with the grievances of each village.
"···They say they will be recruiting people who worked in administrative organizations next spring. They say anyone can apply, regardless of gender or age, so I hope you actively encourage the villagers to apply. Wouldn't it be better if there were more people from our village in the central administrative organization?
"That's true."
"All right."

A 'very big' town, training camp. Everything was going smoothly after the Susquehannock tribe agreed to join the Sky Sun Alliance.
Men were dispatched from the Treasury Department to survey the exact population and resources of the Susquehannock tribe.
And he quickly established administrative districts and formed a council and a representative assembly. Susquehannock warriors, once prisoners of the tribe, were of great help.
"······It looks like the Susquehannock trainee warriors will be arriving at the training camp soon."
"I see."
From the south, word came that the Cold Tree was quickly conquering their villages, having won successive battles with the Nanticoke tribe.
The 'Swift Deer' continued to report information from the Intelligence Service to the 'Brave Wolf'.
"······They say that the Nanticoke chiefs surrender without much resistance because the chief of the Nanticoke tribe is usually in trouble. And they say that the Nanticoke people want to unite with our tribe."
"That's fortunate."
"Well, I guess that's kind of what I expected."
"What about the Mohawk tribe?"
Five hundred warriors stationed among the Mohawk tribe were moving quickly northward with the Mohawk warriors to reclaim the territory they had lost.
"It seems that the Iroquois Confederates are concentrating their efforts on the war against the Irie tribe. That's why there aren't many Iroquois Confederate warriors left to guard the old territory of the Mohawks. I think we can find the old territory of the Mohawks by surprise and speed."
"Who is in command of the warriors?"
"There was a dispute with the Mohawk tribe over command, but fortunately our tribe decided to lead the warriors."
'Brave Wolf' said with a stern expression.
"I think the issue of command authority will continue to be a problem in the future… I need to report to the chief and make sure that the command authority is firmly established."
The 'swift deer' nodded as if agreeing with the opinion.
"I guess that would be good."
At that moment, a noise was heard outside and a 'roaring thunder' entered the office.
"insect!"
"insect!"
As soon as the greetings were over, 'Roaring Thunder' reported.
"······I have received word that three hundred and two apprentice warriors from the Susquehannock tribe will arrive at the training camp today."
The 'brave wolf' gave instructions with a leisurely expression.
"Please prepare the barracks for the trainees to stay in right away. It must have been hard for them to come here, so I would like to give the trainees a few days to rest."
"Understood, sir!"
* * *
Shawnee tribe, Wolf Clan village. The wolf clan people welcomed me warmly, as if they had been instructed by the 'Ferocious Wolf'.
During their stay at the Wolf Clan village for several days, the Shawnee people were busy preparing for the ceremony to crown their new chief.
And today I officially become the Chief of the Shawnee tribe. As always, on important occasions, the shamans danced and prayed for the well-being and blessings of the tribe.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Drums made of buffalo hide resonated as shamans carrying sacred branches gathered around me.
"······I hope that our tribe prospers as the legend says."
"······I will return to my original roots."
"······Creator and spirits! Please bless the future of the Great Chief!"
The sorcerers repeatedly struck my body with sacred branches. And when all the shamanic rituals were over, the shamans took something out of their leather pouches and started sprinkling it on my body.
Pure white snow flakes were fluttering in the wind. I could only stare blankly at those snowballs in astonishment.
'That's?'
