System's POV

Even the Wanderers who were skeptical at first, were starting to feel hopeful because what the ten-year-old was saying was very ambitious, but entirely possible.

”This is just the first step of the strategy I have in mind,” Thirteen stated after he finished his explanation. ”There is more that I will share with you in the next few days. But, until then, I want all of you to take your training seriously. Do I make myself clear?”

”””Yes!”””

Thirteen nodded. ”All of you should rest for now. Tomorrow, we will commence the start of your training regimen.”

The Wanderers dispersed as they were told, while some remained behind in order to form Hunting Teams, which would be responsible for gathering food for all the Wanderers on the Second Island.

Seeing that they had regained their vigor, Thirteen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Fortunately, he managed to control his temper earlier, and didnʼt lash out on the person who told them that he was just going to use them as cannon fodders.

Shasha, Taiga, Kane, Herman, Raon, Rio, Miriam, and Phoebe, walked towards where the ten-year-old was standing.

All of them wanted to discuss a few things with the younger boy, who had shown them a path to their survival.
