My Kingdom Building Done Right!-Chapter 47: Mission Impossible
"Daedalus, don’t you think this mission is a little too hard?" Leone asked as he stared at his seventh mission.
"I think you’re right," Daedalus replied.
Leone only had to complete four more missions to upgrade his territory to Rank 2. However, his current mission gave him a headache.

He already had enough warriors now that the Alborin Tribe and the Riverfang Tribe were under one banner.
Since the Riverfang Tribe lived in the barracks, some of the women were even tempted to train as archers. This was a welcome addition to their fighting force, and both Leone and Ulric were happy with this development.
Unfortunately, training ten Elite Warriors wasn’t easy. A warrior could only be called an elite once their combined stats reached 300.
Yuni was one of the strongest warriors of the Alborin Tribe, and yet, her stats only added up to 187. Raising that to 300 in a short time wasn’t realistic.
"Well, it can’t be helped. How about you refresh the mission?" Daedalus asked. "You can refresh missions once a week. Maybe you’ll get lucky this time and get an easier quest."
"Refresh the mission?" Leone blinked. "Is that even possible?"
"Of course. Haven’t I taught you how to do it?"
"You didn’t."
"My bad then."
Daedalus coughed lightly before highlighting Leone’s Seventh Mission on its page.
"Do you see that small button below the quest name? There. That arrow shaped like a circle? That’s the refresh mission button," Daedalus explained. "Just click it."
"Okay." Leone nodded and pressed the refresh button on Daedalus’ page. As soon as he did, the mission faded away, replaced by a new one.

"Huh?!"
"What the..."
Leone and Daedalus both exclaimed upon reading the new mission.
Training ten Elite Warriors was already a very difficult task. But compared to what the new mission asked for, the previous mission felt like a piece of cake.
The population of the Alborin Tribe and the Riverfang Tribe combined numbered only a little over a hundred and thirty.
Yet the new mission was asking them to double it to clear the mission!
Leone and Daedalus glanced at each other, fully knowing that they received another mission impossible.
The only way they could clear the mission was by forcefully raiding another tribe and dragging their people back to their territory.
But such a thing went against Leone’s principles. The other two tribes would definitely be unwilling to do it as well. If he really did something like that, wouldn’t he be no different than Arlo?
He might not be a pacifist, but it wasn’t his style to kidnap people against their will either!
"Daedalus..."
"...I guess we’ll have to wait for another week for the reset."
The two sighed at the same time, fully knowing this mission couldn’t be accomplished at this time.
Just as the two felt disappointed, the sound of a bell reached their ears.
Leone hurriedly came out of the cave to see what was going on.
The bells ringing weren’t the main alarm bell of the Alborin Tribe. It was the one he had installed on the outposts, which ought to serve as a warning if other tribes were to enter their territory.
From above the cliff, he saw a group of their warriors heading to one of the outposts while mounted on their Raptors.
Ulric also asked if he could borrow Arion so he could reach the outpost faster. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Leone agreed and asked Blitz to check what was happening and report back to him at once.
The little squirrel saluted before turning into a streak of lightning that shot to the outpost where the bell was ringing.
A few minutes later, Blitz returned and informed its master that people from the Black Wolf Tribe had come to ask for a meeting.
"The Black Wolf Tribe..." Leone narrowed his eyes. He didn’t have a good impression of the tribe that had tried to take advantage of the Alborin Tribe when they were at their lowest.
Since Ulric had already arrived at the scene, he was certain the matter would be resolved right away.
To his surprise, Ulric didn’t return to the cliff alone.
A young man was riding with him on Arion’s back. When the Pegasus landed, the young noble noticed that the person who was with Ulric had an extremely pale face.
He looked like he was about to puke at any moment.
With a glance, Leone noticed the genuine worry on Ulric’s face as he looked at the young man.
"Leone, this is Jason of the Black Wolf Tribe," Ulric introduced the young man who had just dismounted from Arion’s back with his help. "He is the son of the former Chieftain before Arlo. He has come to ask us for help."
Leone remembered that Ulric and the previous Chieftain of the Black Wolf Tribe had a very close relationship.
"Let’s head inside to talk," Ulric added. "Also, can I use some of the medicines you crafted to make him feel better? He had a long journey to get here, and he’s not in the best of health."
"Of course," Leone nodded, and handed Ulric a few potions that helped in stamina and health recovery.
"Thank you," Jason replied as Ulric handed him the potions that came from Leone.
Jason didn’t recognize the blonde-haired boy. But based on Ulric’s address, the stranger seemed to hold a high position in the Alborin Tribe.
Also, he noticed that the moment he approached the cliff, he immediately started to feel better.
The buffs of Leone’s Territorial Flag instantly helped his recovery, allowing him to finally breathe a little easier after days of travel to reach the Grimjaw Mountain.
