I Became The Chief Of A Primitive Village

Chapter 305, The Giant Bear Tribe

Translator: Silavin

At dawn, the Sun rose slowly from behind the mountains, casting an orange glow across the land. The earth, forest, and Tribe were instantly bathed in a soft orange hue.

The view was pleasing, giving an overall feeling of comfort and ease.

In a dense forest stood a Large Tribe called the Giant Bear Tribe. True to its name, the Tribe was enormous, more than twice the size of the Flame Dragon Tribe.

With around ten thousand people, it was a Large Tribe in an excellent location.

Surrounded by mountains and dense forests, with tall wooden walls at their main gate.

Totem Warriors and Warrior Trainees patrolled the perimeter, giving an impression of strict discipline.

Inside the Giant Bear Tribe, children played around the perimeter.

Kai walked nearby, his expression serious and troubled. At seventeen, he had striking short red hair and red eyes that drew attention. Most noticeable were his teeth. He had a normal-sized mouth but with sharp fangs. He seemed capable of shredding flesh with one bite, and he stood about 1.75 meters tall with a youthful face.

“What are you thinking about? You’ve been like this since morning.” Luo asked.

As Kai’s friend, he had long blue hair and blue eyes. He was of the same height as Kai but with a more childish face.

He had baby fat and single eyelids, giving an overall childlike appearance. His distinctive feature was two long whiskers at the back of his head, like a catfish’s barbels (flesh like whiskers).

“I’m pondering over how to tell Father. I’m not sure if he’ll agree…” Kai suddenly said.

As the Giant Bear Tribe Chieftain’s Eldest Son, he was heir to the Tribe.

Kai had over ten siblings, but not all from the same Mother. He also rarely spoke with his siblings, finding them childish and impossible to get along with.

“How do you know the Chieftain won’t agree if you haven’t asked?” Luo consoled.

As the Hunting Team Leader’s only Son, similar in age to the Chieftain’s Son, they got along well. Apart from sleeping in different houses at night, they spent almost all day together. Whether training or doing other activities, Luo was always where Kai was.

Both were Warrior Trainees, close to awakening as Totem Warriors.

“I’m afraid to ask. Father looks so fierce, he’ll definitely scold me…” Kai shook his head without hesitation.

His relationship with the Chieftain was mediocre. They barely conversed. They exchanged no more than five sentences each day – greetings or training reports.

The Chieftain was busy managing the Large Tribe, handling food supplies and preparing for the rainy season.

Everyone also knew the snow season would follow quickly after the rainy season. Without a proper amount of food in storage, many would die during the snow season – especially  in such a Large Tribe.

Kai rarely saw his Father, sometimes not even once a day. Their only connection was their Father-Son Biological relationship.

“The Chieftain isn’t as scary as you say. He treats us really well.” Luo gestured.

They often met the Chieftain during training, and he greeted them warmly without arrogance.

Luo could not understand why Kai feared him so much he could not even speak.

“You’re not his Son. He doesn’t need to be fierce with you.” Kai grimaced. He knew his Father well – gentle in public but fierce in private.

He had experienced it several times – being scolded one moment, then watching his Father smile at others the next.

Kai wondered why his Father acted this way. [Wasn’t it exhausting to always switch faces like that?]

Though Luo did not understand this side of the Chieftain and spoke lightly, Kai kept quiet about his Father’s other side. He believes his Father must have reasons. No need to expose this side to outsiders.

Luo raised his eyebrows, finding Kai strange today. “You don’t need to rush out. At least wait until after the snow season?”

“It’ll be too late by then. Isn’t it perfect for us to go on an adventure now?” Kai replied.

He feared telling his Father about wanting to explore, finding life in the Tribe too boring. He wanted to see other Tribes and hoped to advance to become a Totem Warrior during his journey.

There was precedent – his Grandfather had left as a Warrior Trainee and returned as an Early-Stage Totem Warrior.

Kai also wanted such an experience. Daily life was just training and eating meat, without any real excitement.

As someone who craved excitement, hearing about others becoming Totem Warriors through adventure made him eager to leave.

“If that’s the case, I’ll go with you.” Luo said without hesitation.

As the Hunting Team Leader’s Son, he also sought excitement and welcomed adventure.

He had also heard about people becoming Totem Warriors through adventure and he too had this desire.
