Black light emanated from Ethan’s body.
It vanished in an instant.
After the Tribe broke through to Level 2, the Talent that had been stuck for him also broke through the shackles, successfully upgrading to the Second Tier.
[Congratulations! Your SSS-Rank Talent: More Wives, More Blessings System has advanced to Tier Two.]
[The more wives you have, the more blessings you will receive.]
[Tier Two Effect: Every time you share a moment of genuine intimacy with any girl, the system will randomly grant a Blessing or Reward. Each wife can trigger the reward once per day.]
[Current Tier: 2]
[Tier Details: Maximum Daily Blessings increased from 3 to 4. There is a 50% chance that, whenever a Blessing is triggered, you will temporarily obtain one of your wife’s talents.]
[Current Wives: 2]
[Current Daily Reward Chances: 0/4]
Indeed, consuming several times the resources of others brought about a huge improvement.
"My talent has broken through to the second level; now I can give blessings four times." Ethan revealed.
Now his talent, everyone in his tribe knows.
When the girls of the Tribe heard this, they all cheered joyfully.
"Long live the Chief!"
"Thank you, Great Chief, for letting me tag along.’
Hearing this, Ethan became confused, because his talent has leveled up, but why the girls were praising Grace.
On Jessica’s side, several girls walked over as a group.
"Teacher Grace... We were wrong. Can you please let us join?"
"Please, Teacher Grace. We were your students. For the sake of our teacher-student relationship, give us another chance."
"I don’t want to die! I can chop wood—I work very fast..."
"I’ll do anything you ask. Please let me join."
Hearing their pleas, Grace looked toward Ethan once again.
Meeting her gaze, Ethan turned to face the group.
He quietly walked to the front.
All the girls on Jessica’s side immediately fell silent. None of them dared to speak, afraid of offending Ethan.
"Report your Talents, one by one."
The girls froze for a moment, thinking they had finally been given a chance.
They immediately began introducing their Talents one after another.
"I have D-Rank Lumbering, but I can do the work of two people."
"I have B-Rank Cooking. My food tastes much better, and eating it can speed up stamina recovery and help you sleep more soundly."
"Putting people to sleep?" Ethan frowned. It sounded useful, but it was only a B-Rank Talent. How strong could its effect really be?
"Next."
"I have D-Rank Mining, but I can also chop wood. I can do anything. Please, honored Chief!" This girl even knelt down desperately.
Next, a tall and beautiful girl with long flowing hair stepped forward. "I have A-Rank Heating. I... I can heat things up to 100 degrees Celsius."
Ethan took out a stone arrow and walked up to her. "Jasmine, right? Can you heat up the arrowhead?"
Jasmine nodded nervously and immediately activated her Talent. The stone arrowhead quickly grew hot.
Ethan spat on it. White steam rose with a sharp sizzling sound.
"Not bad," he muttered.
After all the girls had reported their Talents, Ethan looked at the anxious group. Thanks to his SSS-Rank Talent — **Many Wives, Many Blessings** — he had no intention of turning any of them away, especially since they were begging for forgiveness and a place in the tribe.
Since they had come seeking mercy, he would accept them. However, he would set his conditions clearly.
Ethan pointed at Jasmine first and spoke in a calm but authoritative voice, "I can accept all of you into Eden Garden. Of course, everyone will have to contribute with work. But before that, I need to test your loyalty."
The girls’ faces lit up with hope.
"Yes! Yes! We can do anything!" they answered eagerly.
One of them even boldly said, "I’ll lick you, okay?"
"..."
Ethan gave a faint smile. He looked at the tall, beautiful Jasmine and said, "Come with me."
He led Jasmine into a private room inside the thatched hut and closed the door behind them.
After watching Ethan lead Jasmine into the private room, the other girls exchanged knowing glances. They weren’t naive — they understood exactly what was about to happen.
Meanwhile, Grace watched with a complicated expression. She muttered under her breath, "Pervert..." but she knew deep down that Ethan was doing all of this for the sake of strengthening the tribe.
Still, she couldn’t help wondering when he would eventually turn his attention toward her as well.
Although she was the Tribe Chief, Grace had already silently resolved herself — if it was necessary for the tribe’s survival and growth, she would sacrifice herself without hesitation.
What she didn’t realize was that, unknowingly, she had already begun thinking about Ethan more and more. A strange warmth had started blooming in her chest. Even though she refused to admit it, a part of her had begun wanting him too.
She quickly shook her head, forcing those thoughts away, and assigned work to the remaining four girls.
Meanwhile, Emily stood silently on the side, watching everything unfold. She couldn’t believe how easily Ethan had taken Jasmine inside. A mix of disbelief and complicated emotions flashed across her face.
’How did my niece fall for such a pervert...?’ she thought.
Meanwhile, inside the private room, Jasmine still couldn’t believe what was happening.
Just minutes ago, the moment the door closed, Ethan had pulled her close without saying a word and began undressing her. Everything happened so suddenly that she barely had time to react. She knew what he intended, yet the speed and intensity still left her stunned.
Before she could even gather her thoughts or speak, Ethan had laid her down on the bedding. With one smooth motion, he positioned himself and entered her. A sharp cry escaped Jasmine’s lips as her virginity was taken. A burning pain spread through her core as he broke through her untouched barrier.
"Ah... it hurts..." she gasped, her body tensing, fingers clutching the sheets tightly.
Ethan paused, leaning down to kiss her gently on the forehead and cheeks. He whispered soothing words, staying still inside her while stroking her long hair. He gave her time to adjust, his hands gently caressing her body to help ease the discomfort.
Slowly, the sharp pain began to fade, replaced by a deep, warm, throbbing sensation. Jasmine’s breathing gradually changed. The ache transformed into something entirely different — a growing, pleasurable heat that spread through her body with every small movement.
Unknowingly, her hips began to move in rhythm with his. Soft, involuntary moans escaped her lips as pleasure started to overtake the initial pain. Her tall, beautiful body arched slightly beneath him, matching his pace as waves of new sensations washed over her.
Ethan held her close, moving with controlled passion, guiding her through the experience. Jasmine’s cheeks flushed deeply as she surrendered to the feeling, her hands now clutching his back instead of the sheets.
Soon, the blessings of Ethan’s Talent activated. A warm energy flowed into Jasmine, giving her Talent a noticeable boost.
Ethan gently stroked her hair and said softly, "You can go out now. Tell the Chief to prepare some food for you. You must be hungry."
Jasmine nodded shyly. She was already hungry before, but after their intense session, she felt even more famished. She quickly got dressed and left the room with slightly unsteady steps.
After Jasmine walked out, Elena entered the room.
She looked at Ethan with a playful smile and asked, "Which blessing did you activate this time?"
Ethan explained the effect of his Talent on Jasmine’s ability. Elena listened carefully, then tilted her head with a mischievous glint in her eyes.
"Compared to her... who felt more comfortable?" she asked teasingly.
Ethan laughed. "Haha, of course it was you."
Elena curled her lips slightly, looking smug and satisfied. "Good."
But then Ethan pulled her into his arms, his voice turning husky. "I still want more..."
Elena gently pushed him away with a smile. "I need to rest. I’m still tired from earlier."
In the end, Ethan asked for Sophie.
Sophie entered the room with a light blush on her face. Although she had already experienced this once today, she didn’t feel as nervous as before.
Twenty minutes later.
Sophie walked out of the room with a strange, satisfied expression. She couldn’t completely hide the trace of secret delight on her face. As she passed by Elena, her posture and bearing seemed to have risen a notch.
Elena, however, showed no emotional fluctuation. She simply looked at Sophie lightly and said, "I can see you are quite happy."
