A young boy, perhaps five or six years old, sat on the ground. His hands were covered in blood, and his clothes were blood-soaked. In front of him was a dead wolf cub, battered to a pulp.Its legs were severed, its head was ripped open, and its eyes were crushed. Even a grownup would not engage in such behaviour. But it was the boy who was doing it."How dare you mess with me, wolf? I am #########..."His words were hazy.I sensed an outside interference as if someone was interfering with my ability to hear his remarks.Soon after, a woman dashed towards him. The woman took the youngster by the collar and lifted him up."Ethan! Why are you doing that?"Mother?" The youngster cocked his head. " I was only fooling around with the wolf. "Can't you see how delighted the wolf"Can't you see how delighted the wolf"Fuck!"I got up.I simply would have woken up earlier if I had known the dream would be unpleasant.I was aware that this was the result of using another person's memories, but E
"We're also taking part in the training?." One of the guards inquired, stunned.The guard was ultimately convinced that the Young Master was serious after seeing his demeanour. He had initially assumed that the Young Master was making a joke.He was completely astounded. How was it possible for him, a top C-rank knight, to practice alongside so many townspeople who had not even attained D-rank?"That's correct," I said this without looking at the guard. I was irritated that they even asked me about it.They only possessed a C-rank power, yet they regarded themselves as superior to the locals. I had no idea a C-rank knight could have so much face or pride.The guards could notice the young master's irritated expression. They experienced an unexplainable chill up their spine."I must be hallucinating," one of the guards reasoned as he shook his head."That is a command. Go."The guards hesitated for a short while before grabbing a spear and joining the others. Each of them has reasonabl
Gordon's gesture signalled the beginning of the training.Everyone began sprinting around the mansion with a spear in their hands.I approached Giru while everyone else was training.[Giru-Level 19]HP-400Def-56ATK-44[Skills - Beginner Intelligence, Skilled Leader]I couldn't help but think back to when I initially arrived in this world. I had far lower numbers than the 14-year-old boy in front of me.Wait a minute..."Giru...Are you a girl?"Giru was terrified as if she'd been discovered doing something unlawful."Y-yes, it wasn't on purpose." Then she stared at me as if I were a demon. Her face turned pale, and her breathing became more rapid.I now understood what was going on."Did you dress and act like a girl because you were afraid of me?" I enquired helplessly.Oh, I should have picked a different body!Oh, the guilt.Giru shook her head and gestured with her hand as though she was afraid of me."No, no, no, I didn't.""It's okay, I won't eat you. I am not a demon, as you b
"It ought to be a dungeon break... How could a C-rank dungeon even have time for a dungeon break?""Has no one reported anything about the dungeon?"Wait... is it a dungeon untouched by humans?My interest was piqued.Everyone simply discounted the deaths of the victims as a natural result of entering the forest. But, after thoroughly reviewing the records, I discovered an oddity: they all died near the southern end of the Frost woods.I was seeking to expand to the city's southern edges at the time.I intended to clean out some portions of the Frost Woodland once it reached a certain size."According to Jacob, the deaths of the people last year had to be a coincidence.""However, the bodies are in an odd state. All of the wounds are exactly the same."I couldn't rest easy until I personally validated the veracity of the situation.Creak!I was surprised by the noise generated by the window.I hope that didn't startle anyone.[Stealth]My figure vanished into the darkness of the night
A thousand eggs seemed excessive to Jacob. Even if the young master's concern for the populace made him pleased, it would not be a good thing if it went too far and the house became bankrupt.If they followed through on this list, they would wind up purchasing a huge majority of the seeds in Green City.Furthermore, the number of ingots was sufficient to make armour for approximately 20 knights.The old butler believed that the young master was wasting his money."Young Master, please reconsider," Jacob requested."The quantity of seeds is excessive. The majority of the surrounding region is desolate. There is no blacksmith in town to work on the iron ingots. Even if we acquire them, they will be an unnecessary expense."My brow furrowed. This butler had no idea he was toying with fire. I had already advised him that he should simply obey and do what I say.When Jacob saw the Young Master's piercing look, he shuddered.'He's not going to... is he?' He reflected on himself. Will he be
“Mason, I intend to develop this city.” I went to the subject.Mason clenched his teeth.“Young Master, I don’t mean to be rude but you are putting your plans on people without knowing their situation.”I stayed silent for a minute, and then I understood.I didn't realize I was imposing my thoughts on him, and I always assumed that others would want to do everything I asked of them.It was a habit I'd developed after spending so much time with my summons.They would simply obey whatever I said with joy and excitement, and I had assumed that everyone else would be the same.It makes sense why the young masters of the second generation in the stories I read were arrogant and proud, constantly believing that others ought to bow down and heed their orders.They didn't become that way because they wanted to, but because of their surroundings!Mason was irritated and unable to communicate his annoyance. No matter what, the person standing before him was a true noble.He needed to travel to
I spoke casually. "I recall that you promised to serve me if I could save your daughter."Mason nodded, sighing. "You've saved my daughter's life. I am now your lifelong servant.""Good, because I would have been in a pickle if you hadn't opted to keep your pledge." I cracked a smile.Mason turned to face the young man who was standing next to the bed. He'd met the Young Master previously when the nobleman first arrived in the city.At the time, the Young Master thrashed a resident for impeding his carriage's passage. It was a minor squabble in everyone's view, and Mason immediately deemed the nobility to be ignorant and pompous at the time.The young master in front of him appeared to be a completely different person. As if he was fearless of everything, the scornful eyes from before were suddenly filled with vigour and courage."I intend to make changes to Ice Demon City. Oh, in case you haven't heard, I took over the adjacent city and merged it with mine.""What?!"I stated my inte
The stench was so overwhelming that I had to use magic several times while transporting the manure to the farmlands.The residents kept asking me different questions along the way as if they were interested in learning everything there was to know about me.Questions like, "How does magic work?" or "What magic did I use to block the smell?"They were interested in learning the magic I employed to conceal the stench since they found it useful.I just offered them straightforward responses; I wasn't irritated by them. It's been a pleasure talking with them. I haven't had a conversation like this in a long time.An hour later, we arrived in the farmlands. My tools had already been laid on the ground.I was confident that the tools I made would make it possible to begin ploughing even if the farmlands were still heavily covered in snow.I divided the farmers into two groups. One would be in charge of ploughing the land with the tools, while the other would be in charge of spreading the ma
