Aaron knew that no matter how smart the Orc Knights were, they would still be very easy to be angered. Plus, everybody knew Orc Knights had never trusted anyone but themselves.When forging a large army of orcs, the human race often achieved victory by pitting them against each other, resulting in warfare within the orc army itself.Aaron participated in that great battle and became the main brain. The experience made him know many weaknesses of the orcs. One of them was their uncontrollable anger.“We are not afraid!” The group of orcs who defected began to call out loudly and took out their weapons.Brandishing a sword at the leader was an unpardonable act of defiance. The five Orc Knights were furious.“KILL THEM ALL!”In the blink of an eye, a battle broke out. The orcs attacked each other randomly, barely able to distinguish between friend and foe.In that chaotic state, Aaron sneaked around nimbly to pick up all the drop items which were left by SnowWolf and Hans before leaving
"Leaving town?"It was not common for a novice player who had not even reached level 10 to leave the city where he was resurrected. The world outside human civilization was extremely harsh, if one did not have enough strength leaving the city would only bring misery."Yes. I have to hunt many orcs, but The Vast Gray Stone Fields is not a friendly environment for me." Aaron replied with a bitter smile, the reason why he left the city was not that he felt The Vast Gray Stone Fields was too mild, but rather the opposite."The world outside is not what you think. Destroyer Beasts and Spirit Beasts roam around and can devour you faster than a flash of lightning. On top of that, many Wild Vagabonds are roaming around and often looking for trouble."To know, Wild Vagabonds are NPCs that have leveling abilities like the players. However, they live in the forest and often get into trouble with other travelers. They rarely visit towns to buy things and rely on stolen goods to survive.In some c
Aaron stopped his horse and waited by the side of the road until he saw the group of chariots approaching him. As the distance between them dwindled, a bodyguard at the forefront signaled the entire party to stop before rushing over to Aaron on his horse. “Young swordsman, could you step out of the way for a moment until our group passes? Not that I suspect you, but I must ensure the safety of my entourage,” the bodyguard said politely but also intimidating. “If you don’t mind, I’d like to join your party.” Aaron immediately conveyed his intentions without further ado. “I can promise that as long as I am with your group, I will contribute my strength to ensure the safety of all of you.” The bodyguard looked Aaron up and down. His appearance was indeed that of a swordsman, but he looked quite pitiful because of the weathered armor and dull sword. The bodyguard couldn’t be sure whether Aaron had any qualifications with such an appearance. “During the journey, we’ve lost a few members
Laughing slightly, Arthur handed one of the wine jugs to Aaron. At the same time, the door of a horse-drawn carriage opened. Guards arrived and immediately placed some wooden beams as stairs under the carriage door.A moment later, a girl with a charming face walked down the stairs, lifting her long white dress. Although the night was quite dark and the only light came from the bonfire, Aaron could still see that the noble girl had a beauty that was far above average.Compared to Leen, the girl’s appearance was only slightly below her.The girl glanced at Aaron briefly with her soft eyes before continuing her journey towards the campfire.“She’s the noble princess I mentioned earlier,” Arthur said. “And you’re the only man who didn’t drool when he first saw her.”Aaron just shrugged before taking a sip from the wine in the cup.“Aren’t you the least bit curious about her?” Arthur continued.“Oh, well, what’s her name?” Aaron asked finally. He smiled a little awkwardly.“Rossly Rosetta
Getting a manual for the first time in this game, Aaron’s face flushed with happiness, looking like a child who was rewarded with a box full of chocolate peanuts.“Sister, it’s time for dinner.” A young woman approached Princess Rossly.“Yes, just serve everything. We’ll eat together with this young man,” the elegant woman replied warmly.“Sister Rosetta, I don’t want to contradict you, but this man is nothing more than a streetwalker who hitchhikes and burdens our entourage. He is nothing more than a parasite. He does not deserve to dine with you, not even with our guards.”“Sharon! Watch your mouth!” Princess Rossly snapped at the woman before turning to Aaron. “Please don’t listen to what my sister says. She’s just too young to understand how to respect others. We will still eat together.”Before Aaron could open his mouth, the woman cut him off again.“What are you saying, sis? I don’t know how to respect others?” Sharon looked unhappy. “Okay, I admit that I don’t have the slighte
Not far away, Princess Rossly was just about to board the carriage after finishing breakfast when she heard the hysterical Arthur. She had never seen the head squire behave so unruffled before, so whatever was making him hysterical at the moment was very important. Immediately, Princess Rossly approached him to question what was going on.“Mr. Arthur, what has happened?”“Princess Rossly, I’m sorry to make you anxious. There’s nothing urgent here. However, you must not believe this.”Princess Rossly raised one eyebrow, waiting for an answer.“Aaron... he claims to have successfully mastered the first stage of the [Thunder Sword]!”Princess Rossly wrinkled her forehead. Seeming to doubt the statement. “Mr. Arthur, I hope you didn’t drink too much wine this morning.”“Princess, I’m not lying! I heard it myself from Aaron’s mouth.” Arthur immediately looked at Aaron.“Yes, Miss. I think I’ve successfully achieved the first stage of the [Thunder Sword].” Aaron smiled awkwardly in the face
After half a day of walking, Arthur asked the group to take a break and have lunch as they would soon be passing through a quite dangerous territory. Aaron was curious and asked him for an explanation."We're about to take the path which is close to monster lairs. I guess we will certainly face battles against low-level monsters. All of us must feel confident in the strength of the current troops, but we must remain vigilant because we may face high-level monsters."Arthur then explained that the average level of his men was 10, while the monsters they would face were usually below that level. In terms of quality of strength, Princess Rossly's party might win, but in terms of numbers, they might lose."If we're lucky, we'll run into some Rangers, we can pay them to lead the way and deal with the monsters."After lunch, they resumed their journey. During that time, Arthur asked his troops to be alert to the highest degree because monster attacks could come from anywhere and they were
Aaron did not answer immediately. He knew that if he accepted the offer, Arthur's sentiments would be even more sensitive and might bring future danger to the group.Arthur's dislike for him leads to the group being attacked unprepared, resulting in the deaths of several troops. What would happen if that dislike intensified?Shaking his head, Aaron said, "I can't accept it, Miss Rosetta. I just want to be a freelance soldier in this troupe, nothing more than that. Being the vice-head of the troop would only burden me, whereas I want to enjoy the journey."That reasoning was difficult for Princess Rossly's mind to accept. Deputy chief of the escort was no small post if you worked under the great Rosetta Family. But given that Aaron was a traveler who doesn't think money is everything, Princess Rossly could understand.Aaron smiled awkwardly as he knew that Princess Rossly must be looking down on him, but he didn't care. His goal in joining this group was to reach
Aaron went to a cave to rest after a long day of hunting. This was his only chance to get out of the game so as not to get a scolding from Leen, but Aaron held back when he heard something from the deepest part of the cave."Hehehe."It was the sound of laughter.Aaron took out the Nightfeather Sword and took a stance, then sharply hissed, "Who's there?""Hehe... Aaron, am I not the person you've been looking for all this time?"Aaron threw his spit on the ground as soon as he recognized the voice. "Mordecai... I've been confident in my current strength.""Oh, of course. Facing you, I am but an ant standing on the feet of a giant elephant." Mordecai let out a compliment that was much more akin to sarcasm. "So, why didn't you come here and fight me? Weren't you already confident of your victory?"Laughing softly, Aaron took something out from inside his spatial ring.[Item's name: Lighting BallType: CommonIt can light up for thirty minutes once activated.]From behind the darkness, M
Aaron looked at Mordecai boldly, "I've come to challenge you," he said firmly.Mordecai laughed, "You think you can beat me?" he asked sarcastically."I never underestimate your strength, but I must try," Aaron replied firmly.They began to fight and Aaron showed great combat ability. However, Mordecai was too strong and managed to defeat Aaron easily."Not bad, but you're not ready for me," Mordecai said as he stood over Aaron's limp body.Aaron didn't just give up, he tried to get up and attack Mordecai again. However, Mordecai suddenly turned into a grain of light and disappeared.Dariowyn, the knight who was Aaron's servant, came to him and gave advice. "I saw your fight with Mordecai. You have amazing abilities, but your level is still not high enough to deal with him. I suggest that you raise your level to at least 700."Aaron nodded in agreement, and vowed to increase his level as quickly as possible. He returned to the village where he grew up and began to accumulate experienc
Aaron watched the letter carefully, a faint smile etched on his lips. He felt happy to be able to provide a sense of security for the locals and realized that this was what made him proud to be a soldier. However, the happiness was short-lived as he knew that his job wasn't done yet.Aaron and his troops were back on the move and on guard, staying ready to counter any threats. They patrolled around the region and monitored the movements of any bandit groups that might appear. Aaron also came up with a new strategy and enlisted the help of some additional troops to ensure the safety of the region.Over the next few weeks, Aaron and his troops continued to work hard, tending to the territory and protecting the locals. They managed to fend off several attacks from bandit groups and chased down those who tried to escape. However, despite their best efforts, the bandits kept coming back with new strength and bigger attacks.Aaron was frustrated and exhausted, but he didn't give up. He talk
Aaron felt heavy-hearted as he continued his journey alone. He missed his best friend, Geldrick, who had accompanied him every step of the way. Aaron reflected and prayed for his friend who had passed away. He also promised to complete their mission successfully to honor his friend's struggle and sacrifice.Aaron's journey continued slowly as he felt lonely without his best friend. He continued to walk with a heavy heart and a deep sense of sadness. However, he kept Geldrick's last message in mind and remained focused on their goal.After a few days of walking, Aaron arrived at a beautiful small town. He decided to stop for a while to gather his strength and replenish his food and water supplies. Aaron also decided to seek information on the whereabouts of the bandit group that was the target of his mission.Aaron asks around the town and eventually gets information from a local merchant about the whereabouts of the bandit group known as "The Black Hand". He got information about thei
Aaron and Geldrick decided to take a short break after fighting the Spirit Beast. They realized that they had been in the forest for days and were both tired and hungry.They lit a campfire and cooked the food they had brought from their supplies. While enjoying the food, they talked about the Spirit Beast they had just faced.Aaron was impressed by the Spirit Beast's speed and strength, while Geldrick marveled at the Spirit Beast's agility and ingenuity. Both realized that they would have to prepare themselves better if they faced other Spirit Beasts in the future.After dinner, Aaron and Geldrick decided to spend the night in the forest. They made a simple tent and prepared to sleep. However, as the night wore on, they were awakened by strange noises around their tent.They soon realized that they were being chased by a giant bug. Aaron and Geldrick rushed out of the tent and prepared to fight the giant bug. They fought tenaciously and finally managed to defeat the giant bug.After
After successfully capturing the artifact, Aaron and Geldrick returned to the village they had helped before to inform the locals of their victory. They were greeted with joy and appreciation for saving their village from the threat of the enemy.However, they couldn't stay in the village for too long as their task was still not complete. They had to keep moving forward and face stronger enemies.They returned to the city and searched for the latest information about their enemy. After some time, they learned that their enemy was gathering forces to attack the city and take control of the entire surrounding area.Aaron and Geldrick planned a defense and trained the locals to help them fight the enemy. They set traps and booby traps to hinder the enemy's progress and prepare a strategy to defeat them.When the enemy attacked, the battle was fierce. However, thanks to the strategy they had prepared, they managed to defeat the enemy and save the town from the threat that threatened it.A
Aaron and Geldrick stood by the Spirit Beast's corpse, breathing rapidly and with palpitations. They looked around and realized that the forest was full of dangers that awaited them. They took a few moments to catch their breath and recover their strength before continuing their journey.After a few hours of walking, they arrived at a small village located at the end of the forest. The village was bustling with activity, people walking here and there busily. Aaron and Geldrick decided to visit the village to buy some supplies and recharge their batteries.As they walked along the main road, they saw a little girl crying on the side of the road. They approached her and asked her what was going on. The little girl said that her mother was sick and she needed expensive medicine to cure her.Aaron and Geldrick felt compassion and decided to help the little girl. They took some money from their pockets and gave it to the little girl. The little girl looked very grateful and thanked them ma
However, they didn't know that another danger was lurking around them. While they were resting, they were suddenly attacked by a group of powerful and ruthless pirates. The pirates appeared with sharp weapons and their faces were filled with anger and hatred.Aaron and Geldrick soon realized that they had to fight for their survival. They grabbed their weapons and prepared for battle. However, the pirates were not easy opponents to defeat. They had high fighting skills and tremendous strength.The fight started quickly. Aaron and Geldrick fought tooth and nail against all the pirates. They dodged every attack and tried to counterattack. However, the pirates' strength was too great and they were not easily defeated.Geldrick was hit by an attack from one of the pirates and was seriously injured. He almost died if Aaron didn't help him immediately. Aaron felt very worried and panicked seeing his friend injured. However, he did not give up and continued to fight with great courage and de
That night they slept peacefully, but they still felt sad and worried about the fate of the village that had been attacked. The next morning, they decided to continue their journey and find out more about what happened in the village.They arrived at the village at noon and saw that the village had been completely destroyed. The buildings had been demolished and the ground looked like a battlefield. They saw a few people who were still alive and they decided to ask about what happened.They learned that the village had been attacked by an unknown armed group. Many people died and the survivors were forced to leave their homes. Aaron and Geldrick felt sad and angry at the group and vowed to help stop such crimes in the future.They decided to help the survivors and provide food and water to those in need. They also helped to rebuild some of the damaged buildings, helped repair roads, and improved the village's water system.Aaron and Geldrick spent a few weeks in the village, helping t
