《Kingdom Creation System》 Chapter 1: Kingdom Creation System ¡°Wake up quickly! Wake up! Troops are invading sire¡­ get your kingdom ready!¡± ¡°Troops¡­ did I leave the game on all night?¡± Erick rubbed his eyes, opening them to five little green goblins by his feet. ¡°Excuse me, but why are you guys dressed up, and why are you yelling at me?¡± ¡°It¡¯s because you¡¯re the king sire¡­ You drank too much last night and fell asleep. If we didn¡¯t wake you, who would build the gates to protect our kingdom?¡± > <> <> <> ¡°Yeah, who put you up to this little green guys? Did you put some sort of device in my ear?¡± Erick cracked his neck and got off of his chair, stumbling out the doorway and into the world. There was a strange countdown clock in the sky, hovering up above his head. It really showed only four minutes left before the raid would be here. Erick Brighten dropped back in shock as he saw the timer counting down. He crawled on his hands and his feet like a four-legged spider before a series of screams could be heard in the distance. <> <> ¡°You know¡­ Usually when you wake up in the morning you expect pancakes and sausage in the morning¡­ not an army of whatever those things are!¡± <> [Buildings Available] [Barn: Level 1: Requirement 50 wood 100 gold] [Barracks level 1: Requirement 300 wood 300 gold.] {Fencing level 1: Requirement 5 wood 5 gold] [Attack Tower level 1: Requirement 100 wood 100 gold] < > ¡°Okay¡­ sure¡­ I¡¯ll just believe that I got transported into a video game when I was sleeping¡­ Let me at least pinch myself first¡­ ow!¡± Erick grimaced in pain before he focused on trying to build a barracks. In just a second, the barracks was erected. It looked like the sped-up version of a house¡¯s actual construction. The five goblins had been the ones that set to work¡­ They seemed to turn into lines of green light, and then a second later the building was standing. <> <> ¡°I don¡¯t think I really have a choice¡­ the countdown only has one minute left¡­ Of course I want to hire the soldiers!¡± <> <> ¡°No, I¡¯ll take the first option¡­ 10 swords and 10 pick axes¡­ please don¡¯t make this situation any more complicated than it already is.¡± <> <>If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. <> <> <> <> ¡°Let¡¯s go with the Velvet Militia¡­ their troops have over 15 extra stat points compared to the other two¡­ you agree with me right?¡± <> ¡°Stick with Velvet Militia, then, quick! The countdown only has 20 seconds remaining¡­.¡± <> <> ¡°Obviously!¡± Erick Brighton saw nearly 1000 slime zombies running up the hill only twenty meters away from where he was. The sun above them was blazing down and the trees behind them were shaking from their strides. They had on shinning leather armor, and small axes on their backs. As they were approaching the twenty soldiers from Velvet Militia rushed out from the barracks and towards the incoming slimes. <> <> ¡°I didn¡¯t have a lot of time to figure out how to place the fences perfectly¡­ So what happens if I lose the battle? Do I respawn, or go back to Earth¡­ Do I wake up? No one besides goblins and a voice in my head have talked to me!¡± <> ¡°Necromancer? I don¡¯t remember there being a necromancer in World of Lorestan¡­ Was it available in the next patch?¡± <> <<18 of your soldiers are still remaining¡­ Chances of victory if things remain the same is 10 percent.>> ¡°ugh¡­ have them form a line in the middle of those feces I¡¯ve built¡­ Luckily, I¡¯ve spent enough time in history class to know how to make advantage of a small amount of troops.¡± <> ¡°it does look like the World of Loretta interface, okay¡­¡± Erick somehow clicked in his mind and dragged the troops with his cursor, and then selected to move them over to the fences. They rushed to the location that Erick had selected, and were immediately followed by over 800 zombies. Countless red numbers could be seen inside his head that he couldn¡¯t see when his eyes were open. Those were all the remaining health bars of the zombies, including the exact damage his troops were able to dish out. His soldiers did roughly 30 damage each attack, and took about five damage every time they got hit. Using a switching tactic, he made all the ones losing health go to the back before summoning the other two to the front. <> <> <¡­ if your troops are able to defeat the all of the slime zombies will be forced to retreat.>> Silver Slime Zombie Level 2 Health 300 / 300 Attack: 50 Defense: 15 Speed: 15 Magic Attack: 45 [Silver Slime Zombie ¨C can split into two when threatened and wields a large bone axe.] [Time until approaches is 2 minutes¡­ When he approaches, his troops will fall back¡­ It is recommended that you join in the fight if you want your soldiers to survive¡­] ¡°I don¡¯t think it would be a wise idea for me to join the fight.

Sure enough, like in World of Lorenstan his stats loaded immediately.

Every single one of his attacks did between 5 ¨C 10 damage. The only had 300 health to his 500 health. If he knew he was able to fight back, he wouldn¡¯t have lost so many soldiers. With the 16 of his remaining soldiers behind him, the Silver Slime Zombie was mopped up and killed in less than a minute. Opening his eyes, he felt like he rejoined the world. The had turned into a pit of mush and bones. It was pretty disgusting, and left a nasty, goopy stain on his pasture. <, and defeated the first Horde¡­>> <> <> <> [Slime Hammer] Level 2 Attack 15 Diagnosis: Not completely useless, but a large bone would probably be able to break it.] <> ¡°Sounds absolutely fantastic¡­ however, can you please tell me how I got here? All I remember was falling to sleep, and then I ended up with the five little goblins yelling at me.¡± <> ¡°So you know, but you just aren¡¯t able to tell me? What about the soldiers¡­ am I able to talk to them¡­ Are there any people in this world?¡± <> <> ¡°Only if they can actually talk to me? Are they real human beings, or are we actually in a video game?¡± <> ¡°Okay, I accept the three¡± <> <> ¡°All I have is the barns.¡± Erick closed his eyes and opened up the building menu, and spent his new 300 gold on three barns. All that remained was 500 wood 100 food and 500 gold. It¡¯d be hard to get the next day with that just amount of food. Nonetheless, the barns were soon erect, and the three villagers showed up. All three of them were girls that looked like runaways, and they seemed younger than him which was pretty hard to believe. He was only eighteen years old, but these girls couldn¡¯t have been older than 16 or 17. ¡°You¡¯re houses are right behind mine. Feel free to move in and if you have any questions don¡¯t feel afraid to ask me.¡± ¡°Thank you lord,¡± one of the girls bowed. The other two ran off towards their barns while she remained behind. ¡°I know¡­ I know we just met but I have a request of you lord. My father wanted me to find a husband before I was too old¡­ Would you mind marrying me?¡± <> <> ¡°You can¡¯t be serious? I just met her and she already wants to marry me?¡¯ <> ¡°It¡¯s only the first day¡­ She¡¯s pretty and all, but is this really okay?¡± <> ¡°Once a month? Do you mean I can have more than one wife? This isn¡¯t exactly like the World of Lorestan I remember¡­ You couldn¡¯t even talk to the villagers¡­ Fine, I accept the marriage proposal¡­>> ¡°You¡¯ve acquired 1200 gold¡­ Pepper will need to be properly taken care of tonight in order to seal the marriage¡­ You¡¯ve gained 30 experience for gaining a wife¡­¡± Erick gulped and walked inside the house with Pepper behind him. She politely took off her shoes and smiled before giving Erick a kiss on the cheek. ¡°Mua! I can¡¯t believe I¡¯m finally married! My sister got married so much earlier than me, and now I¡¯m married too! I¡¯m a lot older than I look by the way¡­ I¡¯m eighteen and three days!¡± ¡°Wow, so specific¡­ happy belated birthday, wife?¡± Erick rubbed his cheek. ¡°Do you want to know what your new last name is by the way?¡± ¡°You have a last name? I¡¯ve never met anyone with a last name before,¡± Pepper smiled, grinning as she pulled Erick in for a hug. ¡°Now¡­ since we got married¡­ you know what we have to do tonight right? I wouldn¡¯t be able to go back to my family without showing them the stain on the bed.¡± ¡°Sounds like something from the sixteenth century,¡± Which Erick knew the game was based on. ¡°Can we just eat some food together tonight, and then maybe we can go upstairs? I still have to figure out what to do before the next horde comes¡­ It could be in two hours¡­ it could be in twenty-eight.¡± ¡°Hmmm, let¡¯s not eat yet¡­ My father told me it¡¯s not good to stain the bed on an full stomach¡­ What do you do when you get married anyway¡­ I know we have to kiss, but what comes next?¡± ¡°If you don¡¯t know that, maybe we should save it for another time,¡± Erick sighed, realizing it was too good to be true. ¡°Your new last name is Brighton. I was from Ireland before being transported here.¡± ¡°Sounds like a lovely name¡­¡± Pepper smiled at him, reaching under the table and grabbing his hand. ¡°Well, Pepper Brighton would like to really feel a kiss¡ª¡± Knock! Knock! The amorous atmosphere instantly faded as a large fist sounded at the doorway. One of the small goblins looked frightened and was jumping up and down. ¡°Master¡­ Master¡­ It¡¯s horrible! Someone has left a head on your field! It appears to be one of the scouts! I think you¡¯re being set up!¡± ¡°What do you mean? Like a human head?¡± Erick patted the little goblin on the back. ¡°Show me where it is¡­ Green 3¡­ Pepper¡­ you stay here.¡± ¡°Sure, just forget your wife,¡± Pepper frowned, walking over to the stove and slapping down 5 food. ¡°What do you want for dinner? Chicken costs more food, but¡­ we did get married today.¡± Erick said, ¡°Chicken,¡± before running out the door onto the field. When he got onto the field, there wasn¡¯t only one head, but two heads.This book''s true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience. <> <> ¡°You can¡¯t be serious! It¡¯s not even my fault.¡± Erick felt like he¡¯d clearly been setup. ¡°Is there any way I can request help from the Velvet Militia.¡± <> ¡°So, it¡¯s okay for me to be setup, but not okay for me to request help?¡± Erick replied, angst filling his voice. ¡°Does it work like the game? Do I just have to get to level 5 in order to level up my rank?¡± <> ¡°Got it¡­ thanks¡­ so what do you recommend? I still have tutorial mode on, right?¡± <> Erick sighed and kicked away one of the heads. It floated off into the distance as a cold wind traveled down his back and made him aware it was getting closer to winter. The goblins could be heard behind him, talking amongst themselves. Even the soldiers had heard the gossip from the goblins about the approaching troops. His new ¡®wife¡¯ Pepper, on the other hand, was waiting at the doorway to his house. It didn¡¯t take very long to cook with food in game, and she waved to him to indicate to come back. As for the goblin that had taken him there, he picked up the heads and nervously shook them. ¡°Master¡­ so what do you want me to do with the heads? Do you want me to build anything? Perhaps if we honor them with a burial they will do the same when we die.¡± ¡°We aren¡¯t going to die¡­. This is just a game with rules. I¡¯ve never lost a game since the day I was five years old and devoted my entire life to them¡­ It¡¯s a wonder I just got married,¡± Erick laughed, continuing, ¡°Yes, burry them and tell me if you see anything funny¡­ Also, I will send you a series of fences to build¡­ It¡¯s time we make a maze. ¡°A maze sir? Do you want me to put these heads in the maze? I heard if we leave them out they might attract beasts¡­ Bury the bodies, and bait the heads?¡± <> <> ¡°Fine,¡± Erick okayed the process, Opening up his mind¡¯s eye to build a fence network. He figured that would keep the goblin busy. Hopefully, the enemy wouldn¡¯t already have access to trench buckets and cannons this early in the game. The rest of the night went silently along with the stirring of the wind. Two hours later, after a dinner, he found himself awkwardly getting into his bed with Pepper looking at him with loving eyes. She¡¯d taken off her shirt and pants and was blushing as she looked at him. ¡°I¡¯m all yours for the night, husband. What do you want me to do now?¡± ¡°Why don¡¯t we get some sleep?¡± Erick yawned, rubbing her leg with his arm. ¡°I don¡¯t want to rush into things, Pepper. In my world, there is something called the three-date rule.¡± ¡°Oh, well then our dinner was our first date right? Do we do something because of our first date?¡± Pepper blushed as she started playing with her bra strap. ¡°Do you want to¡­ you know¡­ sleep with me naked?¡± ¡°That sounds great¡­ I mean¡­ no! Just give me a kiss goodnight.¡± ¡°That won¡¯t do. At least let me make a stain on the bed tonight. Father told me if I don¡¯t make a stain, it¡¯s not a true marriage! Is there someone else.. Erick? Are you just playing a game with me?¡± Erick laughed before pulling her into his arms and staring deeply into her eyes. ¡°Fine, I¡¯m going to give you one kiss pepper. You can count this as something that¡¯s acceptable on a first date.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t like these rules¡­ Who needs three dates? We could die at any moment, and my husband doesn¡¯t even want to see me naked!¡± ¡°No! No! It¡¯s not that¡­ I just¡­ I also don¡¯t have as much experience as you think I do¡­ I¡¯m just in disbelief you want it so bad. Do you even know what¡¯s in my pants?¡± Pepper nodded her head, slapping his legs with a smile. ¡°Yes, you have two legs, and what papa called the third leg! That¡¯s what you put in me right?¡± ¡°Enough, go to sleep Pepper¡­ Here,¡± Erick pulled her head in, tapping his lips against hers. ¡°You¡¯ve already made it impossible for me to forget you¡­ ¡­. Five hours later, Erick woke up to an alarm. << Ten have invaded your territory! Get up immediately or else your goblins will be killed!>> ¡°Ugh, I can¡¯t even get a night¡¯s rest!¡± < <> <> ¡°Ugh, rush them into the barracks with the wolves! Send the goblins here and don¡¯t let them get eaten! Pepper¡­ I got to go take care of some wolves¡­ I¡¯ll be right back!¡± ¡°Okay, but¡­ I hope you know I enjoyed this date! When you come back, I want real progress towards that stain on the bed!¡± She blushed and gave him a kiss on the cheek. ¡°Also, don¡¯t forget your shovel! I left it by the doorway!¡± ¡°You¡¯re totally out of this world,¡± Erick replied, commanding himself to rush towards the wolves. When he arrived, his soldiers were each down to ten health, and were kitting the gigantic wolves towards him. Erick used his one and only attack with his shovel and bashed three times into the first wolves head. Surprisingly, the wolf went flying into the air, and crash landed on the ground. Those three attacks took out 50 health each and left one wolf dead on the grass. ¡°Not bad¡­ I could do this with my eyes closed¡­¡± Erick laughed commanding himself to do as he ran straight into the barracks. The night slowly started turning to dawn as this fight continued. The howls of the wolves could be heard for miles, and Erick¡¯s war cry was just as intense. When the five beasts finally died, he was covered with blood and only had two soldiers still remaining. The rest had been left in various forms.. <¡­ New Buildings are now available.>> <> [Building¡¯s Available (level 3)] [Archery Range: Level 3: Requirement 200 wood 300 gold] [Magic Circle: Level 3: Requirement 100 wood, 100 gold] [Farming School Level 3: Requirement 300 wood, 1000 gold] [Magic Circle ¨C supplies troops and Lord with Mana to use in battle. Can be used to also increase defense of certain structures by replying barrier.] <> ¡°Great¡­ finally some good news¡­ Do they stack like in the game? I mean¡­ can I build 5 and get five times the benefit?¡± <> Erick opened up his window and noticed he had 500 wood 600 food and 200 gold remaining after building the fences earlier. It cost him 75 food a day to keep the villagers fed. Also, since he didn¡¯t have enough gold for Archery Range he decided to build two magic circles. The goblins quickly built them. Two large blue lights seemed to swirl after the goblins painted down a strange set of characters on a few meters of soil he had available for buildings. He had pasture he could farm, and roughly one acre he could build buildings on. The pasture was reserved for farming and planting crops, which would turn into food with enough energy put into the crops. However, right now, his field was only growing a basic grain that only gave him 30 food a day. This didn¡¯t fully cover the cost of his troops, and meant the archery range was even more important. Still, it got quiet after the magic circles finished building. A new icon showed up under his name, and he clicked on himself with his eyes closed. [Erick Brighten ¨C Lord Class Level 3 Health 500 / 500 MP: 20 / 20 Attack: 15 + 10 (Shovel equipped) Defense: 10 Magic Defense: 2 Speed: 51 Magic Attack: 32 Skills: Diagnosis: Roughly equivalent to a bad fertilizer but is improving at a decent pace.] ¡°So¡­ I guess I got Magic Defense and Mana now¡­ Is there anyway I can learn a magic spell like in the game?¡± <> ¡°I can¡¯t just buy them from you¡­ Do I really have to wait for the skill merchant?¡± Erick sighed and then said, ¡°yes,¡± loading the skills in front of him. <> Open Hours ¨C 10 am ¨C 11 am Skills Available: Icicle Lance - 200 gold ¨C level 1 Lightning Whip - 800 gold ¨C level 3 Earth Mantra ¨C 800 gold ¨C level 3 Wind Scythe ¨C 500 gold ¨C level 3 Heaven Feet ¨C 900 good ¨C level 3 Page (1 / 90) <> ¡°Great, I have zero gold¡­ I¡¯ll worry about it in the morning system¡­ However, can you think of any quick way to make gold rain from the sky?¡± < fur for 200 gold each, and food can be traded in for gold at a 100 to 20 ratio. You can also gather wood in the forest to be sold¡­ Soldiers with axes are capable of cutting down trees at a rate of 3 wood per hour.>> ¡°Well, since this is a game, I don¡¯t have to worry about harming the environment. Let the twelve remaining soldier rest¡­¡± Erick yawned as the sun started sparkling in the sky. He ordered the goblins to take off the fur off the and made his way back to his Pepper. She¡¯d clearly gotten comfortable, and had her bra half hanging off her pale skin as she kicked her leg onto his side of the bed. Pushing it away, he was final able to get some sleep. Chapter 3: Magic Shop Pepper cooked Erick breakfast as he slept. When he awoke, it was 10:51 and the Magic Store would only be open for a few more minutes. He¡¯d woken up three times last night, thinking that his body would somehow be transported back to Earth. The morning was sunny, and completely left him in disbelief. He was still on the same planet, and a large carriage was floating in the sky over his Farmland. ¡°Shoot! I forgot to buy spells! Why didn¡¯t you wake me up system?¡± <> ¡°Shoot!¡± Erick rushed outside without his shirt on. Roughly twenty villagers he didn¡¯t recognize were waiting in front of the carriage receiving supplies. This included twelve of his own soldiers, a beautiful girl, and the two other villagers he¡¯d accepted. The other six people, however, didn¡¯t move when he approached. There was a countdown clock over the flying carriage, and the man looked at him angrily when it reached 10:59. ¡°You have one minute,¡± A guy in a wizard top hat said. ¡°You¡¯re lucky the goblins didn¡¯t need any supplies today, otherwise you¡¯d be out of luck.¡± ¡°Sorry, I¡¯m usually on time for everything!¡± Erick sweat and clicked open Magic Shop.¡± He first had to sell all the wolf furs which took him 30 seconds. He only had twenty seconds to buy and . He wanted to make sure he had 300 gold left in case anything unforeseeable came up. The wizard in the carriage sighed before tossing him down two magical scrolls. They instantly dissolved into his body causing his skills to increase by two. ¡°Well, that will be all! I got to get out of here and find some real customers. You low level bastards have a good day will you?¡± <> < , and To upgrade gain experience by persistently using attacks. Amount of experience gained is cut into twenty when not in a battle.>> ¡°How much magic points do they each cost to use in a fight? I don¡¯t see it when I click on my character.¡± << costs 1 mana and costs 3 mana points to use. You¡¯ve also received six new villager requests when you were asleep. They are standing next to you.>> Erick gulped. Each Villager cost 5 food to keep alive. The weather today was exceptionally calm and serene. It made it even harder for him to turn down a few of the villagers. He didn¡¯t see anyway he could accept more than three at this current time. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, but I only have room for three villagers,¡± Erick said to the crowd, ¡°What skills do you all have, and are any of you hunters? I can only allow the three of you that have the highest skills.¡± There were six individuals three men and three women. The three girls looked much younger than the men. They were either their daughters or they¡¯d married old while the girls were young. In a game based on the sixteenth century, he wouldn¡¯t be surprised by either. ¡°I¡¯m just here to offer up me daughters¡¯ hand in marriage!!¡± One of the largest men said, patting a big chested red head on the back. ¡°If you willing to take her I¡¯ll give you 600 food and 1000 gold! I¡¯m sure that¡¯ll allow you to take these other four villagers.¡± ¡°Father¡­¡± The girl blushed, pushing his hand away. ¡°We heard that you stopped the raid from reaching our town. My dad wanted me to marry someone strong¡­¡± ¡°I¡¯d have to ask Pepper¡­ I just got married yesterday, and all it took was the click of a button.¡± Erick screamed her name causing her to come running out. Out of all the 16 people still alive in his village, she was the only one that had been locked from his control. It started slightly raining as she ran out the door and made her way towards Erick. Her face looked like it was beaming with light, and she immediately noticed a girl standing in front of him, solemnly looking into his eyes. ¡°it¡¯s okay, Erick. You can marry her! We haven¡¯t even made it official yet. I need all the help I can get around the house!¡± ¡°Are you serious?¡± Erick said, staring at the two girls standing next to each other. ¡°I mean¡­ you¡¯re so pretty, and she¡¯s so¡­ endowed¡­ I didn¡¯t remember that this could happen in the game, haha.¡±Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. <> ¡°That¡¯s some strange information to just add in there¡­¡± Erick shook his head, and grabbed Peppers hands. ¡°Are you sure about this Pepper?¡± ¡°Yes, now get the gold from that old man and come in and eat! I made some extra food so new girl here can join us! Hurry up!¡± <> ¡°Yes¡­¡± Erick gulped, noticing 1000 gold and 600 food had been added to his inventory. ¡°Glad you¡¯re in our growing family¡­ As for you other four villagers. I¡¯ll show you your roommates in a minute!¡± <> <> ¡°Great¡­ well¡­ let¡¯s go inside and have some breakfast. Thanks so much for giving me your daughter mister!¡± ¡°Yeah, no problem! She¡¯s worth her wait in hogs I promise you! Going to be good at carrying babies. You see these hips! Make sure to put them to good use!¡± ¡°Dad¡­¡± Gwen embarrassingly pushed him away, ¡°If you tell me that, he might choose me over Pepper more¡­ I can¡¯t do that to his head wife.¡± ¡°Oh sorry, daughter. Now, may the grass be with you boy. I¡¯m going to head back to my sect. By the way, I noticed a little militia heading your way. You might want to prepare for that. Worst case scenario, my Lord is welcome to come stay at my place.¡± ¡°A Militia? Did you see what flag they had up?¡± Erick didn¡¯t think the horde and a militia would arrive around the same time. ¡°Did they have any white hats or healers with them?¡± ¡°I did notice a white hat¡­ I¡¯m guessing it was a town mage from the Velvet Militia. I have no idea why they were in your area, but I¡¯d be careful. Could be trying to destroy the talent.¡± ¡°That¡¯s impossible, I joined the Velvet Militia¡­ Are you sure it isn¡¯t anyone else?¡± ¡°Do I look like I can read minds,¡± The farmer said, giving Gwen a kiss on the cheek. ¡°Honey, take care of this man before he kills himself. Make him fat like me so he stands a chance at ruling.¡± The people of other towns recognized Lords when they saw them. Erick had a crown floating next to his name, and it meant he had the ability to level up those around him. A strange bolt of lightning had struck down when Erick ended up in this world. It was this reason the Scouts showed up and looked in his territory. Coincidentally, he realized that he was surrounded by three kingdoms, and one of those kingdoms happened to be the only one with the dead scout. It made perfect sense to him that Velvet Militia might have staged all of that. ¡°Great¡­ I appreciate the help, sir! Got to go do some serious building! Hope you have a good day!¡± ¡°You too! Two wives and only eighteen¡­ Can¡¯t wait to see what you become boy!¡± The Farmer walked off as Pepper grabbed onto Erick¡¯s hands and pulled him back to their house. In her head, this was the third date. Their first meeting, sleeping together, and eating together counted as three dates in her mind. After the meal, she took him up into their bedroom as Gwen followed. With the brunette Pepper in the room and the hourglass red headed Gwen, he nearly fainted as Pepper started stripping. ¡°You didn¡¯t want to see it last night, but we already had three dates! It¡¯s time you make me your wife already! My father needs it to happen.¡± ¡°It¡¯s not that¡­ and what three dates? Even if you count the meals it¡¯s only been two. Not that I¡¯m complaining, but¡­ it¡¯s only an two and a half hours till the Horde attacks.¡± ¡°Really? You¡¯re really turning me down again?¡± Pepper covered her breasts as Gwen awkwardly blushed. ¡°Look, I even see the third leg in your pants kicking! See¡­ It¡¯s rising! Just let me make you happy for five minutes! That¡¯s all it will take to get the cherry out of me!¡± ¡°Who¡­ who explained how marriage works to you?¡± Erick said, clearing his throat. ¡°You only lose your cherry once¡­ We should at least get some candles.¡± ¡°I promise to take you on three dates this week if you can just wait. If I die, I obviously can¡¯t take any cherries for a long time!¡± Gwen suddenly laughed as she patted Pepper on the back. ¡°He¡¯s just trying to say sweetie that if he takes your virginity right now he won¡¯t be able to focus. However, don¡¯t worry darling, you got here first, and you can get it first.¡± ¡°Really? You¡¯re not going to steal his third leg from me?¡± Pepper looked at it, walking over and getting down on her knees. ¡°What is it anyway? It looks sort of long¡­ is it a banana? Is his third leg a banana?¡± ¡°It¡¯s unbelievable how na?ve you are Pepper.¡± Erick couldn¡¯t help but grab her by the hair and rub her face. Leaning in, he gave her a kiss on her lips diving his tongue into her mouth. He¡¯d obviously gotten very turned on. Women were usually like thorns in his life on Earth. If they were there, they were there for a few weeks, and he always bled because of it. However, now he had two girls¡­ one na?ve one, and one who looked like a model except with larger tits and a rounder ass. ¡°I¡¯m going to leave you two alone now¡­ However, I wanted to let you know I¡¯m an expert seamstress¡­ Do you have any leather so I can make you armor?¡± ¡°No¡­ No I don¡¯t¡­ I sold my only wolf furs today¡­ However, that¡¯s great! I remember it being extremely hard to find people with professions!¡± Erick gave Pepper a kiss on the cheek as he smiled at Gwen. ¡°I¡¯ll give you all the materials I got from now on though! See you downstairs in a few minutes!¡± ¡°Wait¡­ does this mean its third leg time!¡± Pepper said excitedly rubbing her hand against his chest. ¡°I really want you to show me the pleasures of life, Erick! Please¡­. Please tell me you have time!¡± Doing! Erick couldn¡¯t help but get so hard it nearly poked her in the throat. Looking down at it, she grinned wickedly before moving towards it. ¡°That¡¯s¡­ damn it! You¡¯re so hot Pepper, but the Horde is in two and a half hours¡­ I got to buy more soldiers, build a fence, and find out where the Militia is!¡± ¡°I understand.¡± Pepper teasingly gave him another kiss on the cheek. ¡°When you¡¯re ready for me, I¡¯ll be in the kitchen! Gwen may be a seamstress, but I¡¯m a cook! With our four hands, you¡¯ll never sleep badly at night!¡± ¡°It¡¯s like you always know how to say the most innocent, but appealing thing¡­ ugh¡­¡± Erick gave her one more kiss. ¡°I¡¯ll see you downstairs! Remember to put on your clothes!¡± <> <> <> ¡°Wow¡­ this really is a different world¡­ I can¡¯t think of another world where making out with your other girlfriend would be okay¡­¡± Erick looked down at the wooden block in his pants and sighed. ¡°Damn it! Why do I have to be such a nice guy! She wanted it¡­ Erick¡­ she wanted it!¡± Chapter 4: Black Stone Armor Erick spent the next two hours investing his mind in building up his village. He built four attack towers, an Archery range, and one more Magic Circle. With the archery range, his soldiers were now able to wield bow and arrows when they were in the attack towers instead of the lances they could¡¯ve used at level 1. He¡¯d hired another 18 level 1 soldiers which cost him 360 food. If he wanted to have more soldiers, he¡¯d need to reach level 5 according to the system and start buying grain houses in order to increase his supply limits. <> ¡°New approaching monsters are . Attack of the Five legged spiders ranges from 10 ¨C 15, and their defense stat is around 20¡± ¡°It shouldn¡¯t be a problem for us to defeat them right? You didn¡¯t mention how many of them there are?¡± <> < will appear. Tutorial mode is also on its last hour¡­ do you have any questions?¡± ¡°Yes¡­ can you tell me anything about the Velvet Militia? What are their chances of attacking at the same time?¡± <> ¡°Ugh, I can¡¯t risk them showing up. I guess that means I¡¯ll leave 10 soldiers in the base and another 20 on the field..¡± Erick closed his eyes and delegated nine level 1 and one level 3 soldier to his base. The two soldiers who survived the wolves were nearing level 4. He had 400 experience remaining till he leveled up as well. <> <> Erick nodded his head and closed his eyes, beginning to control the flow of battle. The smell alone from the Five Legged Spiders smelled like a mix of blood and tears. Rushing towards Erick¡¯s base, their white stripes and eight eyes began to prepare for battle. Erick immediately ordered his one level 3 in front of him, soldier 10, and made his 8 level 2 soldiers fire off arrows at the incoming horde. He kept his eyes closed the entire time, and also used a bow and arrow. When the Archery Range was built, all of his troops, including himself automatically learned . A few of the spiders were hit and fell onto the floor. However, as far as the eye could see there was nothing but spiders and pasture. <> <> ¡°Seriously? Why am I not surprised?!¡± Erick selected his ten soldiers in the base and dragged them to intercept them. ¡°Do you think I can just kite them for ten minutes? Tutorial mode is still activated right?¡± <> ¡°Ugh.. whatever! I¡¯ve been in worse situations in World of Lorestan. Did I tell you I used to compete in tournaments! I even won a few system¡­¡± Erick said, clicking on himself as the five-legged spiders approached. He immediately sent out one into the flesh of a nearby spider. Dropping onto the floor, it caused its 80 health to instantly disappear. The large corpse slid to his feet as his soldiers stabbed at it. At least his magic attacks had grown more powerful. The troops kept firing arrows as he kept using his magic attacks. turned out to be a single target attack while Wind Scythe had a minor Attack on everything radius. It chopped up three spiders at a time. His troops back at the base, on the other hand, were trying to get them to follow. Unfortunately, all they seemed to be interested in was going after his attack towers.If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it. <> <> <> ¡°Three hundred? That¡¯s so much?¡± Erick commented, firing out another . Every minute he¡¯d gain back three mana, one from each magic circle. As for his troops, his level one soldiers did their best to switch back and forth as they guarded the narrow opening in his fence. At this point, his entire base was surrounded by that fence, and their was only two openings and one maze opening. Both of those sides were being attacked, and the soldiers of the Velvet Militia had already entered into his base. At this point, they seemed to give up on his attack tower, leaving it with 100 health as they headed towards the stable¡­ <> ¡°Ugh, I guess I have to leave these twenty here¡­¡± Erick clicked onto his house, sending himself into the heat of the battle. He couldn¡¯t help but worry something terrible would happen to Pepper. One of the villagers had been walking outside watching the battle, and had his neck cut off as the Velvet Soldier¡¯s approached. The blood from his neck splattered onto his daughter who¡¯d been drying some clothes on a line. She screamed and ran forward as the man kicked her father¡¯s body to try and stop her in her tracks. ¡°You damn monster!¡± Erick sent out a as the girl got knocked over like a pin. His eight soldiers surrounded him covered with wounds. They had leveled up to level 2 after killing two of the level 4 soldiers. However, the eight in front of him were wearing black armor. His body was covered with just a set of basic cotton clothing. They had 50 defense to his 15. With his shovel in his hands, and their swords, it made it even less likely that he could survive. His hit three of the men and only took down twenty of their health. They had even higher magic defense, and their eyes were bloodthirsty. ¡°Heh, you don¡¯t stand a chance of surviving little serf Lord¡­ Give us your head now and we¡¯ll spare your two lives. The Knight of Teesta doesn¡¯t need any new competition. However, he could use a couple of beautiful wives!¡± ¡°I¡¯m sure this Knight of Teesta has more than enough wives. Can¡¯t you guys just leave me alone? I¡¯m not the type to pick a fight with someone when I can be their allies.¡± ¡°Heh¡­ you want him to ally with a level 4 serf lord? Are you kidding?¡± The same soldier replied, drawing out a spear from his back. ¡°He¡¯s level 12 already¡­ You¡¯d be better off allying with the spiders killing your men over there!¡± ¡°You¡¯re playing a dangerous game!¡± Erick slowly waited for his mana to recharge, controlling the other side of the battle with his eyes closed. ¡°I¡¯m going to be happy to strip you all of your armor, and melt your swords down for materials!¡± They also had shields, and nice leather clothes underneath their armor. The air seemed to only get more hostile before the eight remaining soldiers laughed. Up above, the archers had already run out of arrows, and had to come down and serve on the field with their swords. <> <> ¡°Great.. at least they have a chance at surviving.¡± Erick pulled out his shovel and walked right up to the soldier who¡¯d been taunting him. His opponent did the same thing and instantly swung out his sword. Erick parried with his shovel before his eight other soldiers rushed and started trading blows with the surrounding forces. Over three blows were being struck every minute. The strongest of the Velvet Soldiers started dropping health quicker than he thought possible. Erick shovel bashed him and then followed up with and another . The soldier Erick had attacked fell on his knees. He looked up dizzily as Erick put the shovel against his neck. On Earth this wouldn¡¯t have been as intimidating, but because his soldiers leveled up to level 2, they were holding their own against his seven remaining soldiers. ¡°You were overconfident. Just because I¡¯m a serf doesn¡¯t mean I don¡¯t¡­ don¡¯t know how to use a¡­ a shovel...¡± ¡°We¡­ we surrender¡­ let us live will you and we¡¯ll change our allegiance.¡± <> <> <> Bang! Erick angrily swung his shovel and sent Hermon¡¯s head flying into the distance. He couldn¡¯t stand the smug look on his face when he killed his villager. As for the other seven, they began shivering. Unfortunately, with the five legged spiders approaching ever closer, Erick had no choice but to accept the other seven. <> <> [Blackstone Armor] Level 3 Defense: 25 Magic Defense: 20 Diagnosis: Not the best armor in the world, but a lot better than what you¡¯re wearing. ¡°Yes¡­ equip it!¡± Erick cracked his neck as the armor magically appeared on his body from his inventory. The seven other new soldiers he¡¯d just gotten looked completely grateful to still be alive. He ordered them to head to the barracks to heal while he charged towards the fence. Three minutes still remained, and only twelve soldiers were still standing. The air had been filled with the scent of blood, and the eight dead soldiers had been pilled up like sandbags to block the Five Legged Spiders from easily attacking. For the next three minutes, Erick did everything in his power to keep his level 3 and level 2 soldiers alive. The level one soldiers who were gaining experience slower had to be sacrificed. With tons of blood on his armor, he finally ran out of mana and had to use with his shovel. Surprisingly, the sword Hermon Green had used actually gave him less attack. Was it because his shovel itself was a Lord¡¯s weapon? He kept attacking and attacking as the timer went down. A spider¡¯s leg ripped into one of his soldier¡¯s chest immediately taking out the rest of his health. <! Five-Legged Red Queen> is now approaching!

Getting the blood on your body will do 14 damage per second if it makes skin contact.] <> ¡°Good, because we¡¯re going to need all the help we can get.¡± Erick watched the Five-Legged Req Queen traveling towards him at break neck speed. It covered over 300 meters in less than 30 seconds. Erick knew his only chance was to rely on his soldiers. He only had 150 Health remaining and 15 magic points. However, at a time like this, a mage would¡¯ve also been excellent to have on his team, or even better, a cleric. <. It is recommended to use magic instead of normal physical attacks>> ¡°See that!¡± Erick jostled out his sword, clicking and dragging in his mind the seven soldiers that just appeared on the field. Clicking on the attack for each of those seven soldiers, he watched as the Five-Legged Red Queen easily dodged all but two of the attacks. <> <> <> ¡°You didn¡¯t have to say that twice!¡± Erick watched as the giant Five-Legged Red Queen ran up to him with large, powerful strides. It seemed like a normal spider except it seemed to have some sort of body sewn into its torso. When it reached up to attack him, he finally saw the face of the figure on its body. It appeared to be a girl, probably no older than him. Her clothes were tattered and she was sown into the stomach of the creature. Blood was coming out of her eyes as if she was still suffering, and it extremely bolstered Erick¡¯s anger. He dodged with a jump to the side and sent out a . The blade immediately clashed into the body causing it to lose 70 HP. With all the attacks combined from the seven soldiers, the seemed completely overmatched. Unlike most other serfs who just gained lord status, he¡¯d already gained seven new strong allies with magical attacks. To teach your recruits magical attacks, you had to first establish an academy at level 5. The Hordes were most likely programed on the basis of what would be the hardest for the serfs in question to handle. Erick only needed to send out 5 more before the body of the spider screamed and dropped down. It landed flat on its back, with the lady still crying on its chest. <> <> ¡°What about the girl? Is she okay? It¡¯s kind of odd the monster died but she¡¯s still breathing?¡± Erick bent down and put his hands against the lady¡¯s face. ¡°She¡¯s so pretty too¡­ what happened to her system?¡± <> <> ¡°I¡¯ll give her a chance at life. I¡¯d want the same¡­ wouldn¡¯t you¡­ I mean¡­ if you cared I¡¯m sure this would make more sense¡­¡± Erick sighed and leaned over telling his soldiers to help cut her out. A green goop covered her body as Erick pulled her out of the spider¡¯s intestinal area. There were organs falling out of it as the girl was dropped on the floor. Cleaning off her face, Erick threw her over his shoulder as he looked out on the battlefield.You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version. Hundreds upon hundreds of slowly decomposing bodies were being turned into dust by the world¡¯s strange game like atmosphere. In less than an hour, there would be no more on his parcel of land. Nonetheless, he worriedly placed the girl in a bed, and gave her a wash cloth and left a cup of water by her bed. The death tole was nearly 12 soldiers after the battle with the Red Queen. The bodies had to be burned quickly before they lost their chance to give the soldiers a proper burial. Overall, the air had turned melancholy, however, his soldiers were looking at him with more pride. ¡°Who is this Knight of Teesta and how dare he attack me during a Horde¡¯s invasion1 When can I do the same thing to him?¡± <> ¡°Level 10¡­ load stats,¡± Erick sat down next to a bonfire of burning soldiers, kicking a few rocks as the soldiers sang a song. ¡°When they go to heaven, may they get their fill! Every girl¡­ in the world¡­ may they have her too! Make them angels¡­ make them divine¡­ make them lose their minds¡­ from the pleasure of the world¡­ of beyond!¡± Erick smiled at the song before his stats appeared. He just needed 100 more experience to reach level 5.

Not enough to count as anyone special, but at least you¡¯re not lying in the dirt. ¡°So¡­ pretty much¡­ I¡¯m useless until I get to level 10 right¡­ Is that the only way to become a Knight?¡± <> <> ¡°So¡­ the kingdom I chose happens to be the wrong one¡­ Oh well at least I survived¡­ How long do you think until Teesta returns with enough anger to try and burn down the village?¡± <<¡­ unable to calculate¡­>> ¡°Of course, well, I do have my seven singers over here¡­¡± ¡­ Erick gathered his seven soldiers inside of the stable. Pepper had already began cooking dinner and was planning their ¡®fourth date¡¯. Gwen had gotten to work on sewing some material out of spider silk. He¡¯d received roughly 3000 yards of spider silk just an hour go after the spiders began disappearing into the atmosphere. Regardless, the seven soldiers in front of him looked especially eager to hear what he had to say. One of them in particular, Patrick, had a knack at never shutting up. Erick figured he¡¯d be the best person to start with. ¡°So¡­ guys¡­ your old boss¡­ the Knight of Teesta. If I went to attack him right now with my 30 soldiers, what is the most damage I could do to him?¡± ¡°No question, you¡¯d die in a second. It¡¯d be the dumbest thing you ever did, Erick. I¡¯d just leave him alone or let us give him a fake version of your head!¡± ¡°Does he have any enemies?¡± ¡°None besides you that he hasn¡¯t killed!¡± Patrick looked bored as the interview continued, ¡°Now, come on and ask me the juicy questions! I¡¯ll even tell you who his favorite wife is! He has a ton of them, yah know?¡± ¡°¡­Are any of them¡­ well¡­ do any of them not like him?¡± Erick tossed ideas around in his head. ¡°Like¡­ would one of them be fine betraying him?¡± ¡°He¡¯s pretty bad to his wives. I¡¯m sure if you gave one of them poison and promised her his estate, she¡¯d go ahead and do it for you! However, then you¡¯d also have to kill his troops¡­ Better you just give up on it before you get yourself killed.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know if that be the smartest thing. Leaving a guy out there who wanted to kill me in order to steal my wives doesn¡¯t sit right with me.¡± ¡°Well, you¡¯re being to innocent! This is a world of dominance! If you want to get power, you should be like Teesta! Kill some of your nearby villages, and let us ransack some houses! The Velvet Militia will even reward you if you take out Crag Kingdom¡¯s men or Fernet¡¯s Alliance serfs and peasants!¡± ¡°I might have to take you up on your offer¡­ I guess I¡¯ll go spend the night with Pepper¡­ she wants tonight to be our fourth date!¡± ¡°Well then¡­ you better not keep her awaiting!¡± Patrick laughed, slogging down some liquor as they started stomping their feet in the stable. ¡°Do her till she can¡¯t say your name anymore! See you tomorrow boss!¡± ¡°I don¡¯t think we¡¯re ready for that!¡± Erick laughed, walking out of the stable and heading towards his home. Along the way, he noticed the girl who got pinwheeled over by her own dad¡¯s dead body. She was on her knees crying and bowing in front of the place he died. The atmosphere seemed especially solemn, and Erick patted her on the shoulder before she turned around and smiled. ¡°It¡¯s okay¡­ He knew that he¡¯d have to die someday¡­ We grow up fast here, and only live if we level up¡­ At least he had mom before she died.¡± ¡°I¡¯m so sorry¡­ I just got here today¡­ I¡¯m still not familiar with¡­ whatever this place is¡­ If you ever need me, just come knock on my door, and we can talk¡­ what¡¯s your name by the way?¡± ¡°I.. don¡¯t even want to remember it anymore?

Tell me quickly before the sunsets.¡± ¡°Uhm, its¡­ Kerry¡­ I know it¡¯s a very mainly name, but¡­ I¡¯d like it if you called me that every once in a while.

That¡¯s so fast!¡± Erick laughed, talking inside his head. ¡°It¡¯s like if you give a girl a gold in this world, she¡¯ll be craving you for the next 10 years!¡± <> ¡°Ugh, not going to think about anything that complicated for quite a while!¡± <> <> <> Chapter 6: Knight of Yelverton ¡°What¡­?
