"I was worried before that Hope Village was just a village, not safe enough, but these days I keep seeing Hope Village collecting stone with no sign of stopping. Based on my calculations, they'll last a long time—it should be pretty safe."
"I think so too."

Similar conversations echoed in every corner of the territory.
At first, maybe a lot of people were hesitant, torn between their former territory and Hope Village, but after these few days, they've stopped hesitating completely.
Among all the territories they've seen, none can compare to Hope Village.
This comparison isn't about strength—it's about how the territory cares for its residents.
They like this kind of environment, and now they understand why Hope Village's residents work so closely together.
For a territory like this, they're willing to pitch in too.
Just then, Watt overheard these discussions.
When he heard them, he couldn't help feeling a bit helpless.
