《Reborn in Tales of Demons and Gods》Starting a New Village
Advertisement
(Jian POV)
Over the next five days, I stay in the Heavenly Fate Plateau trading with the villagers. I traded food for tools that I'll need to build the new settlement. Some people including the guards and son of the chief came to try and cause trouble but they are all scared away by me using Legend rank pressure on them.
To make sure that no one target the people that I traded with, I put an array down that'll cause the thieves to have 'bad luck' whenever they try to steal or harm the people. I give the array enough power to last a year before it disappears. By then the food I traded with everyone will most likely be gone and Nie Li will be here shortly after.
After the five days pass, I waited in the south of the Heavenly Fate Plateau. When afternoon came around, about 600 people have gathered here. I didn't expect there to be this many people, I thought at most there will be 200 people that are willing to leave. Old Man Yun and his daughter didn't come. He chooses to stay behind because he wanted to see Glory City and his daughter didn't want to leave him.
Looking at everyone that gathers, I announce.
"All of you should know that by leaving with me, you won't be able to see or meet your friends and family that stay behind anymore. The place we are going to is an area with little to no demon beasts and one living there. Once we reach that place, we will have to start over and build everything ourselves. If you don't want that, I suggest you stop here because once we leave, I won't be coming back here... We will be leaving now."
I turn around and have them follow me, the people that didn't want to leave and the people that follow the big group of people to see what's going on stay behind. Aside from them, I also stop people that I didn't like and the spies from the chief. I have been here for 5 days and I haven't just been trading. I've also been watching the people to see their personality, I make sure to remember anyone I don't like so I can stop them from following me.

In the end, about 200 hundred people choose to stay while I stop 50 people from following so there are about only 350 people following me. It's still bigger than my original estimation so it doesn't worry me.
Once we are far enough from the Heavenly Fate Plateau, I put everyone into an illusion of them journeying for days before teleporting them into the Nexus. Afterward, I lift the illusion before bringing them to the place where I set up my farms. I already have my True Body set up some camps so when we reach it, I have everyone settle down.
We begin construction after a day of rest. Since I don't know how construction work and I don't have any book related to it in the Library, my True Body went out, disguise as random people and brought/touch all books he can find so they appear in the Library and compile it. From there it's easy to figure what to do.
While I plan to introduce people into the Nexus, I don't actually want to become a ruler. It's too troublesome, it requires too much work, it will limit the time I have for things I want to do but most important of all, I don't know how to lead. So instead of trying to establish a leadership role among the people, I look out for people that have the quality to become a leader and have them help others.
Over time people will gather around those individual and once they have enough influence, I'll have them become chief of this small settlement. As the population grows and the chief grows old, I'll have the people elect a new ruler from a group of influential people similar to Glory City current system.
Since this is my world, I still want to have some influence over this place for when I want to introduce something into the community. I set myself as a protector and elder of this new settlement. Using my influence, I'll train a batch of people and a 'successor' to protect this place. The successor being my True Body or me when I transform back to myself. If I find any interesting talent I might take them to the Draconic Ruins Realm once I establish a base there.

In the process of building the settlement, Yu Yan shows up. She was a great help since she used to be a leader of the Human side when they were at war with the Demon Beast. Since she becomes quite popular most likely due to her leadership and looks, I'm currently trying to get her to become chief of this settlement.
"No." Yu Yan
"Why not. You are doing a good job leading this place. It's not like anything's going to change once you become chief."
"While it's nice to see that humanity can continue to live in this place if we lose the war in the Divine Continent, my place is out there fighting for those who stay behind." Yu Yan
"But you have the most influence here if you leave who is going to become chief?"
"Why don't you do it? You started this settlement after all." Yu Yan
"Er… How should I said this… I don't know how to lead…"
Yu Yan stares at me blankly… "You don't know how to lead and yet you brought those people here... What were you thinking when you decided to migrate people into this world!?" She said with some anger in her voice.
"I didn't think that far ahead. I just wanted to introduce people into this new world."
"Didn't think that far ahead?! Building a new settlement isn't just fun and game you know! It takes time, resources and knowledge to make it work otherwise everything can end up in a disaster!" Yu Yan said angrily, almost yelling at the end.
"That why I wanted you to lead this place. You experience what it's like to be a leader before."
"I already told you, I have a war to fight. If I stay here, the new Spiritual God of the demon clan can attack the human settlement anytime and I won't be able to help." Yu Yan
Sigh, Yu Yan is right. If she's not out there, the demon beast's spiritual god can attack anytime and even I won't be able to help. Spiritual Gods are Heavenly Fate Realm while I'm still a Demigod. I can't do anything to them until I break through and I don't want to break through until I'm in the Draconic Ruins Realm. What should I do… I got an idea.
"Yu Yan, what if I said I can make it so you can be in two places at once?"
"What?" Yu Yan
"Remember when I told you I have more than one body?"
"Yeah, what about it?" Yu Yan
"What if I told you I can make you another body to stay here while you leave?"
"Like a clone?" Yu Yan
"Kind of. So do you want to do it? You can count it as repaying the favor you owe me."
"*Sigh. Fine, if you can create this 'clone' for me, I'll do it." Yu Yan
"Great, I'll be right back."

Please Note this is my first attempt at a litRPG. I also ask that you keep an open mind as I will be diverging, in my own way, from many of the litRPG stories I have read. For those of you who missed it, this is a Multiple Lead Characters story, hence the tag. I should also mention that this will get crunchy as far as numbers go and please pay attention to the Profanity tag.
