chapter 894: the beast that never sleeps
'indeed, their powers are two sides of the same coin!' inala thought, barely able to conceal his excitement. most of the wean clansmen had been pushed to the varahan enclave and the three megacities they controlled.
however, there were some hiding in the varahan empire, only taking action during important moments, such as the capture of darabuntara.
a free human with a vara human avatar could gain the secondary nature of voracious nature if they consume empyrean boars for a long enough duration. it was just a matter of time and strict diet and they'll obtain the nature.
silver grade vara human avatars had the primary nature of gracious inheritance while gold grade vara human avatars had the primary nature of blessed inheritance. it seemed by consuming these free humans, the wean clansman were also able to gain some benefits, using which they could successfully infiltrate the varahan empire without having their covers blown.
after all, any free human in the life stage was capable of telling apart a clansman from a free human.
'indeed, chaos has forced both sides to constantly innovate to have an upper hand. otherwise, they'll be consumed by the other side.' his body trembled in excitement as inala analysed, 'it was a good idea to sow discord between the two factions. i'll be able to learn a lot here.'
"was he a sympathiser for the wean clan?" inala behaved like he was curious and expressed his thoughts, "i never thought free humans did that for anyone other than a deity."
"a brully..." the leader of the team of wean clansmen, roloventara eyed inala and then shifted his attention to darabuntara, prompting the latter to explain himself.
"i sought its help when i was desperate." darabuntara shook his head, expressing that he received no assistance from the brully.
'it'll be extremely useful if we can raise a group of brully for our consumption. there isn't enough records, but among the fragments, it is said that the race of brully can fight nonstop from birth to death.' roloventara thought and eyed his team, commanding them to escort the brully, 'if we can stockpile on its natures, we'll gain the upper hand in this war.'
'i originally wanted to be captured by the varahan empire and observe their human avatar. but this is also good enough.' inala showed no resistance as the familiar nature of wool expansion was used to bind him into a cocoon, 'i'm curious about the wean clan's human avatar!'
only free humans could build a human avatar. orakha's build used to be the sole exception, which also wouldn't have been possible without the resources sourced from the transcendent eater.
but now, just as how the varahan empire's free humans were able to produce their own vara, the wean clansmen too were able to tap into the human avatar forms of the varahan empire's citizens.
during his time as the royal zinger, inala had pretty much stolen all the data from narkahamy. he had a complete idea regarding this build. and currently, his brully senses picked up the existence of a blessed influence from the man who had killed falrami.
blessed influence should have only been possible to be present in a vara human avatar. a wean clansman couldn't have gained that power. but somehow, that was a reality now, which inala wished to research.
he only knew that it had been achieved, but had no idea regarding the process or logic behind the feat, 'whether it be the varahan empire or the brimgan empire, they're progressing in strength at an alarming rate.'
the loss of varahan empire's mystic grade existences-brangara and yarsha zahara—might seem like a crippling blow, but it didn't matter at the end of the day. even the current varahan empire was too powerful for anyone in the vicinity to contend against.
despite facing the wean clan, the varahan empire had enough resources to fight another force. it was because after absorbing every single free human force they could encounter in the region, their population had already crossed 80 million.
originally, beyond the influx, the population growth was slow, as the empire was stable. there was no need to birth too many children, since the death rate was very minimal. most families only had two children, which they felt was sufficient.
however, once war with the wean clan began, with the civil war causing countless casualties, the desire for survival spread among them, especially through the older generation that had immigrated from older free human settlements.
families now had around five to six children on average. some families rushed by strong motives spawned children in the double digits, intending to seize a portion of the military authority for themselves.
in war, military organisations developed the most and had the highest authority as compared to civilian organisations. moreover, society too valued soldiers the most, for their performance in war directly dictated the stability of their empire.
