'The rodent infestation lasted for 12 hours. But those felt like the longest 12 hours of his life. We had a lot of losses and food supplies started to run short. People started to blame the young leader of the settlement.
Honestly, there was little the young master could do to prevent something like this from happening. But people often did not see the helplessness of the people in power.
They needed someone to blame and the young master was the perfect bait.
I do feel sorry for him and Shelly is sad as well. But this is an opportunity I cannot let pass. I need to fan the flames of rebellion further. Only then will these people listen to me and agree to follow me.'
Rin recalled the words from the original novel about the third task. The MC had joined Rin's settlement after this task when the mood was at its lowest. And he had become a ray of hope for the helpless people here.
