"Collin, how much food do we have in storage, and are our crops ready to harvest?"
Since Rin had started preparing for the apocalypse years ago, the first thing he ensured was that they had enough food. He had made preparations for around 1,000 people.
But he had not accounted for so many more mouths to feed. He already had over 250 people in his settlement, and now there were likely 200 more.
"Sir, we still need to wait a month before we can harvest anything. We have enough supplies left for 40 days. We will have more once the scout team comes back with whatever they find."
The butler quickly assured Rin but that was still bad. There was not enough food for 200 people.
'Asking the system would be useless too. Is there truly no way to help the phoenix settlement without putting ourselves at risk?'
[User, there is no need to be disappointed. It is the fate of those people to turn to the system for help. Nothing good will come from trying to resist fate.]
