Chapter 55 - 51: The Development of Civilization
The development of civilization often follows an unchanging iron law—without a need, there is no development.
Because of the scarcity of Beast Fruit, there arose a need for food, prompting the people of Logos to finally plant wheat extensively and harvest the heavy ears of grain.
After an unbearable autumn and winter, the Kingdom finally welcomed a bountiful wheat harvest.
Countless stalks of wheat sprouted from the earth, and nearly half the Kingdom mobilized to harvest row upon row of wheat ears.
Yarlessto watched the people gathering food, a gratified smile on his gaunt face.
That autumn and winter, despite dispatching countless Hunters for game, the amount of food brought back remained meager, forcing Yarlessto to organize the various Logos within the Kingdom to contribute their surplus food, returning the Kingdom to a time reminiscent of the primal communal society before Priests were born, with centralized collection and distribution of food.
In addition, Yarlessto personally journeyed far to seek fish and shrimp from the Unihorn residing near the coast. Although the intelligent Unihorn were extremely generous, offering an abundance of food, it was still hard to meet the entire Kingdom’s needs.
During the most difficult days, Yarlessto even ordered a large quantity of leaves, tree bark, and other edibles to be mixed together to satisfy the needs of the entire Kingdom.
And now, they had finally weathered the hardest times and welcomed a season of harvest.
Yarlessto walked toward the homes of Logos who were cooking. He looked around and then saw Dertulian and his elderly mother.
The two were gathered around a flame, with a large wooden bowl perched over it, containing water and wheat ears. Dertulian cut a piece of wild boar meat and tossed it in.
