It¡¯s a World which has technology close to your middle ages but with the addition of magic and demons.It has a power system consisting on levels and skills.Over there you may come across some mythical creatures such as dragons and griffons. The society is based on aristocracy.And there is an ongoing invasion of the demons¡± ¡°Wait what did you say? Demons ?¡± ¡°You won¡¯t be remembering you past life but it will affect your personality over there passivey.Now that my explaining is over I pray you will lead a happy life¡± ¡°No wa-¡° And then my consciousness slipped while my last thoughts were: No way its going to happen right? arc 1 ch 1: A new beginning ¡°-aster master! Wake up!¡± said an annoying voice that comes from far away to disturb my precious sleep. Ughhh, ? don¡¯t wanna, leave me you beast of a women ¡°Master breakfast is ready and your whole family is waiting, you know what happens when you make Miss wait so much right?¡±said the suddenly crystall clear voice of the demon people calls a maid. I groggliy opened my eyes to see the smiling face of my personal tomboyish maid Nicole a.k.a Nico ¡°Ughh you tricked me didn¡¯t you Nico? I must punish you accordingly!¡± Nico keept looking at me with an amused look and decided to ignore my very serious threat ¡°Yes yes I am sure you will Young master but first you must get ready for your morning practice.I hope you didn¡¯t forget that you will start learning how to hold a sword properly¡± Sword training? Sword training she said? Yep I totally forgot. ¡°Of course I didn¡¯t forget how can I forget something like this, anyways Nico you can go away now I¡¯ll prepare immediately after you leave my room¡± ¡°I¡¯ll be waiting you downstairs Young Master¡±She said while giving me a smile that didn¡¯t reach her eyes. Somehow that smile sends shivers down my spine. So I started to prepare hastily for whats to come. After I am ready I left my room with a slightly faster steps than usual. While I was at the end of our mansions corridor I saw my elder brother Elric kissing a maid while touching her weird places.So I tried my best to ignore them and keep my sight forward. When I arrived at the dining hall I was welcomed with the sight of a freshly baked breads and simple but nutritous breakfast. I got on my seat while returning the pleasantries of our servants. While I was eating my breakfast I didn¡¯t notice the upcoming danger : The burrial twins! Suddenly I was embraced from behind by two big and soft pillow like things which belongs to my mother. ¡°Will, my baby how are you today?¡± ¡°mphf mphf muhmm mahmm¡± With all the force ? can muster I pushed myself from her deathly twins. I am not a baby anymore mother humpfThis novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source. ¡°M-Mother please you are embarresing me¡± My mother turned me to face her beautiful sapphire eyes and gave me a hearth broken look and said ¡°My, my little Will doesn¡¯t wants mom anymore(sniff)?¡± An incredible sadness washed over me and I felt regret for the words I said before. ¡°Thats not it mom, of course I want you, you are my most precious person afterall!¡± For a second there I thought I saw something in my moms eye and a little twitch on her lips but that must be because Im still sleepy.After hearing my response moms demeanour changes immediately . ¡°Awww my little angel, you and your siblings are my most precious people too.¡± She bends down a little to kiss the top of my head and joins me at breakfast Then she gets into no nonsense mode and starts lecturing me about why I shoudn¡¯t skip my other lessons after I start to get sword lessons and how magic and history are equally if not more important than the said lesson. While we were talking I noticed that father accompanied by my eldest brother Mike and my little sister Catelyn. As soon as Catelyn sees me she starts running and hops on my lap while shouting big brother. Father sits at the start of the table after giving a recognising nod. Mike sits next to mom after his own good morning. After the awkerd silence father starts talking. ¡°Son, now that you are starting your sword training I expect great things from you, make me and our family proud¡± Right to the business huh. With a forced smile I give a small nod and said ¡°Of course father I will make our Valenston family proud¡± I can see mom getting sad over the little interaction I am having with father. It was always like this, ever since the day father came to the conclusion that Elric is a good for nothing. Being from the Valenston family that takes pride of coming from a long line of accomplished paladins that done things from the scale of helping THE HERO to defeat the demon lord to saving the kidnapped princess you naturally have a lot to shoulder on.Lots of expectations to drown on.Since Mike will inherit Fathers lands and Elric is.. you know just Elric, all the expectations comes down to my shoulders.If I end up being a good for nothing too our proud family will take a damage to its reputation.Thats why father is so strict with me. While I was having this internal explanation our buttler Sebastian(why all the buttlers have the name Sebastian ?) came inside the dininghall to remind me that the time for training is near so that ? can get ready. I placed down my adorable sister and gave everyone a have a good day. When I went up stairs the screams of a girl and the loud banging noise came to my ears from big brother Elrics room. Seems like hes playing the game he told me with that maid.So I masterfully ignore all the noise and arrive at my room.Where my training gear waits me on top of my bed. After changing to my training gear and struggling with those long boots I made way to the training yard. Once in the training yard I saw the giant of a man that is to be my sword master. I watched him from afar with frightened eyes for a few minutes untill he saw me. Slowly I made my way towards him, with evey step I took I become more and more sure of my walking to Show that I am a member of the glorious house of Valenston and I am not afraid.Which is a complete lie since Im about to wet myself thanks to his piercing gaze. I noticed he has grey eyes that gives him a fierce look. There were no scars on his overly muscular body other than the vertical one that starts from his right eyebrows to his cheek. With his ash grey hair makes him look older then he is there were no other perks that makes him stand out. When I arrived in front of him he suddenly gave me a warm smile that I tought he was uncapable of.Which somehow made me feel much more relieved than I was before. ¡°Welcome Young master, my name is Reinfridus but you can call me Rei.From today untill you unlock your crest I¡¯ll be your sword instructor, unless you decide to give up halfway.¡± he finished with an evil glint in his eyes. Oooh? Is that a threat? Arc 1 ch 2 :Tortu-Training time! On this beautiful sunny day everyone inside Valenston estate was having a good day,aside from one particular young master. ¡°KEEP RUNNING YOU WORTHLESS PIECE OF FLESH!!! HOW DO YOU EXPECT TO BECOME A KNIGHT IF YOU CANT EVEN RUN THIS MUCH!!!!¡± Yes you guessed right. That particular young master is our beloved mc William Valenston.Who is currently being trained cruellyhe by a Vicous ogre pretending to be a sword instructor. POV William Valenston Oh shit oh shit oh shittttttt. What the hell, I am the young master! How dare he release dogs on me! ¡°Rei!!! When my father learns about this he will have your head!!!¡± Then I saw a wicked grin on his suddenly very frightening face I realized the cold , harsh truth.My father knows of this already.Rei opened his mouth and laughed heartily while I kept running Why am I in this situation you ask?well my cruel instructor ordered me to run 20 laps on our frontyard which equals to 1km each lap.Afte the fifth lap I coudn¡¯t go on and threw myself to te ground. He simply came over me and ordered me to get up which I said I coudn¡¯t. He gaved me a nod and went to the kennels coming back with three hounds. Before I could even ask whats going on he unleashed them on me.The dogs aren¡¯t even trying to catch me but it still is scary. After a long hour of getting scared shitless and exhaustion I somehow managed to finish 20 laps.Rei took the reins of the dogs and led them back to the kennels. While I was focused on trying to catch my breath and violenty coughing Nicole came to me and offered a genuine smile along with a towel and sliced oranges.She started to wipe my sweet and patted my head affectionately. ¡°Good work Young master, I was sure you would be thirsty so I bringed you fresh oranges and water.¡± I muttered a quite thanks and drank some water. After some silence I decided to speak the thing that was occupying my mind the mostReading on Amazon or a pirate site? This novel is from Royal Road. Support the author by reading it there. ¡°Do you really think my father will be proud of me ? I was barely able to complete 20 laps and that was thanks to me getting scared of the dogs.¡±She looked at me for a few seconds with an emotion I couldn¡¯t comprehend and then gave me one of her best smiles and said ¡°I am sure he will, you are doing your best afterall aren¡¯t you?¡± Somehow her words erased all my doubts from my mind. After our small talk she left to do her other duties. Rei appeared not long after with one wooden training sword.And motioned me to come over with his hand. Since ? learnt my lesson I obeyed without further ado. He looked over me like a predetor would to it sprey. A moment of awkward silence later he ruffled my hair and gave me a praise.Then suddenly his look turned serious. ¡°I am training you to become a Knight. And as a Knight you need High endurance to last long in battles and take hits. And powerfull enough to wear you armor like its made of feathers and what I will train you is to exactly become like that¡± ¡°But what about sword training?¡± He looked at me with an amused look and said ¡°How do you expect to swing a sword if you can¡¯t move around with your armor?¡± Well that certainly makes sense. Then he started to talk with even more amused expression in his eyes. Somehow I can feel that I won¡¯t like whats coming next. ¡°And to make your endurance higher I will attack you with this sword and you will do your best to Dodge.¡±He finished with a barely contained laugh. ¡°What!!! Hey stop sto- agh what the he-aghhh mast-¡° ¡°Stop whining and start dodging¡± 2 hours of tortu- ehem training later¡­ Yeah sky sure looks quite fascinating from this perspective don¡¯t you think so too Mr.Ghost? Wait¡­Ghost? Am I DEAD! No no no nooooo I am too young to die ! -SPLASH- I woke up battered and bruised with cold water splashed over my face to see a grinning Rei. ¡°Master Rei can I ask a question?¡± ¡°Sure ask away¡± ¡°So why are we training anyways ?I didn¡¯t even received my crest yet so this wouldn¡¯t add anything to my stats¡± ¡°You are wrong Will, when you receive you crest your starting stats will be according to your bodies condition along with your potential of growth.For example when you train your body like I did for 2 full years with a growth rate of average then your starting stats for endurance and power will be along the line of 35 to 45 which means the stat cap of average being 150 yours will be 35+150 which is 185. With above average gaining +3 sp to the classes main stats you will reach your full potential at level 50. You will have the same power with a person that has 10 starting points and is 50 level when you are still near 40.Do you understand now?¡± ¡°Yes master.But when will I learn how to wield a sword?¡± He gave me a small chuckle and said ¡°When you are ready.¡± Arc 1 chapter 3 The beginning of a new struggle After the torturous training was over I went straight to my bed and this kind of routine went for 4 months.After todays arduous training with Rei was over I went back to my room without attending dinner. When I woke up next morning I wasn''t refreshed at all. This have never happened to me before. While I stared at the ceiling all I could feel was my body aching and that my hearth was broken. It must have been because of my dream but I couldn''t remember what did I see to make me this hearth broken. After pondering on what I might have dreamt of for a few minutes I remembered I need to get ready for breakfast and started wearing my allready arranged clothes . Just as I was about to leave my room I heard a knock "Come in." The door opened and I was welcomed with the sight of Nicoles friendly smile "Good morning young master"Nico said "Good morning to you too Nico! Is there something you want?" "well, Master Frederik summoned you to his chambers" "I will visit him right away"I said while gesturing to the door and went after her.I learnt this was the proper way from brother Elric. He always says a man should let the lady leave first so he can watch him but he wont teach me the second stage of where to watch when doing so. While I was walking through the corridors leading to my fathers office I couldn''t help but wonder what I did wrong that my father would summon me? There wasn''t supposed to be any reason to summon me first thing in the morning. I was always very diligent after the time I did 20 extra laps for being late 5 minutes.( Even thinking abot that day send shivers down my spine) I was lost in my thoughts so much that I didn''t even notice I arrived before the imposing doors of my fathers office. I slowly reached my hand out to the door knob and and knocked it three times. what happened afterwards was a wait that felt like hours but instead was just a few seconds. Eventually my fathers soft but commanding voice responded "come in" I pushed the door open and walked in with the most elegance I could. I think I did a considerably well job if we are to take the rate my hearth is pounding account. when I stood before him , he lifted his piercing green gaze towards be for a second then went back to his work. Unnerving me with the sudden silence he uttered the words that put my thoughts into chaos. "I heard you are starting your real training today" Was he going to scold me for taking too long to start or praise me for my efforts?Stolen story; please report. Was he going to say I am not worthy just like big brother Elric or was he proud that I was getting better every passing day? Too many questions that only one man can answer. I gulped down the cumilated salvia then replied with a shaky voice "Yes father" He looked at me with a small twitch in his lips and replied "You have done well son. You are making meproud, keep doing so" It may have been just a small praise but it still made my day, I just couldn''t help but smile all the day scene change I arrived to the dininghall with spring in my steps. Mother , Cate , Mike and Elric was already seated and having breakfast. First I gave a hug to mom and a pat on the head for my adorable sister. Which both returned with equally spirited greetings. I sent a goodmorning to my brothers which Mike returned with a stiff nod while Elric returned with a warm smile and a goodmorning of his own. Then continued the conversation with his brows rosed "Heard you are starting your real training today ? " Before I could say anything Catelyn chimed in with a joyful mood " Big brother will be the greatest knight ever ! I bet he will beat you in no time at all ! " Brother laughed heartily and replied while swiping small droplets of tear from his eyes "Aaah my sweet sister , anyone that has held a sword for a week can beat me " Cate puffed her cheeks and declared " Then William will beat you in 3 days !" Scene change When I was about to get up I felt a small tug on my sleves. Oh my god My sister was looking at me with puppy eyes ! At this point I already knew I just lost a conversation "Brother can we explore the forest together ?" She asked with a hopefull tone "Awww not fair Cate, how can I say no when you look at me like that ? " She brightened up like a sun and kissed me sloppily "But you must wait for my training to be over " She looked a little sad but gave me a nod. Scene change Rei stood before me with a blank look "Well, what are you waiting for ? Swing the sword" "But arent you going to teach me cool moves ? " He rolled his eyes mockingly "When you are in a battlefield you either stab or get stabbed, the fancy moves other nobles learn will not make you survive in a battlefield.Over there its either get killed or kill.Now don''t make me repeat my self" I gave a disheartened nod and begun to make downward swings "But aren''t knights supposed to begraceful ? " "Only the true Knights are Graceful , and the grace they have comes from constant practice of basics. The footwork, positioning of your body , the path your sword takes while swinging.It all adds up to a deadly dance , a dance that your opponents will see only once in their lifetime , they will be so captivated in your dances grace that they wont even know they are dead untill the reaper comes for them." He finished with a smile that wasn''t directed to me 2 hours of swinging later "I- I can''t do it anymore " "Okey then , do 40 laps " "NOOOOOO" 3 hours of pure agony later "Am I dead ?" The talking squirrel looked at me with eyes full of pity "Dont worry William you are not dead, you are at your happy place is all! " " Who are you ?" "I am the happy squirrel !" that makes sense Before I could open my mouth again cold water splashed to my face and pulled me from my happy place. Following days my father gave me my first real sword. It means so much to me that I carry it along with me to anywhere I go. Over the months I noticed a change of air around our city. Everyone seemed tensed up because of something. Whenever I walked down the streets The words of a new demonlord an how monsters were spawning at places they were not seen before. When I asked Father he said it doesn''t concern me so I asked Mother and she said to not believe in rumors. I also noticed my little sister getting more sad everyday. Sometimes looking at me like a lost puppy. I couldn''t handle it anymore so I catched her and questioned why She looked at me like she was about to cry and answers shakily "Do- do you hate me ?" "why would you think like that Cate ? You are one of my most precious people" "But you said you will play with me after your training is over , its been 2 months and you still havent" Then I remembered promise and facelalmed " I am so sorry Cate , I promise I wont train tomorrow so we will go explore the forest " "Do you mean it " "Of course I do " I smiled and kissed her head Arc 1 ch 3 : First combat Fire...everywhere I look , anguished cries of a boy. Dark clouds covering the once beautiful sky, anger and desperation that can break ones hearth. Laughing of a demon... And I woke up again after a sleepless night.Sweat covering my whole body, and a ragged breath.For a minute I thought I was a grown man , then the minute passed and I am me again . Without knowing. William Valenston , 3rd son of Duke Valenston.
I woke up again from a good sleep , yet my body feels heavy. I noticed the sweat covering my body and went for a quick bath.Baths really are awesome , taking your fatigue away just like that. Today really is a good day for a picnic in the woods.I bet we will have lots of fun .Maids should already have packed up most of the essentials for the picnic so I went to get my sister from her room. After announcing my arrival Catelyn came out almost immediately and hugged me with all her power. "I knew you wouldn''t forget this time !" "How could I forget my date with such a beautiful lady a second time? Doing so would be a an act against the gods!" I answered remembering brother Elrics teachings of "How to treat a Lady Catelyn become red all of a sudden. Oh gods! Did I angered her somehow? "Sorry Cate have I done something to make you angery?" "No , its nothing, lets go already !"
We ventured to the forest with four guards and a maid. Nicole couldn''t come since Mother had duties for her. She insisted we take guards with us eventhough the forest is ours and already safe .When I questioned her she said it was just in case and that they won''t be near us all the time, just watching from afar. We ate our breakfast near the lake we found.This place really was beautiful.Surrounding the lake after the open space was a mixture of trees with varying colors.Wherever I looked there there were countless amount of flowers from different colors.And smell the their enchanting fragrence.This story has been stolen from Royal Road. If you read it on Amazon, please report it It was like a paradise with all the songs the birds were singing. After the breakfast my Sister wanted to explore and ran off without waiting for me or the guards. I quickly followed her.While I was chasing after her, the colorfull and noisy forest became dark and silent.I couldn''t see my sister anymore. "Cate where are you?" "Hey! Come out sis !" "You are making me worry !" "If you dont come out I will tell Mo-" A loud scream was the answer I got.Suddenly I felt cold. Like a bucket of iced water was being poured down my body. My hearth seemed like it stopped for a second , then begun beating faster than ever. Without thinking I sprinted towards the way the screams came from. Waiting me was the image of my sister curled up to make herself smaller while three green things where holding her down and try to rip her clothes off.
She saw me from the corner of her teary eyes "Brother help !" I drew my fathers gift and started to run towards the green things, holding it over my had like I was about to swing it. One of them noticed me and warned the other two. One that noticed me sent the smallest of the two to kill me. It ran at me too but was unprepared for my for my fast overhead swing.Before it could raise his club my sword cut clean through his soft meat from his rigjt shoulder to his chest,the green thing looked at me with confused eyes before its now lifeless body slided from my blade. The others seemed shocked at first but soon their shocked turned into rage and the bigger of the two pounced on me. I positioned my self so that I could see them both at the same time.Rei always said to never lose sight of your opponents. The bigger one came to me without a care of its openings so I gave him a shallow cut to its dominant leg while dodging his overhead. Seeing this the other one grumbled something and they begun torotate around me . From the corner of my eyes I could see the shivering form of my little sister.Seeing this made my blood boil with anger , my mind became clouded. First move came from the big one , he charged at me with a overhead swing again.This time it was much more composed and he did so without putting himself in danger. I couldn''t parry it so I jumped backwards. Then I felt a sharp pain coming from my back. I was stupid , with the rush of the situation I forgot about the other one.But the pain woke me up from my muddle head state. with shaking legs I took my position again. Bigger of the two came at me with the same tactic , I can already feel the other one getting ready to jump at me from behind but it wont work this time. While he swung his sword down I positioned my sword in a tilted Manner . When our blades contacted his slided harmlessly of my blade , I sent a kick at his sword arm and disarmed him. Last thing his shocked eyes saw was a blade coming at its neck. Witj the big one dead , I turned around just in time to side step a dagger coming toward my face. While I did manage to dodge , it still grazed my cheek. When I was about to attack it , power left my body and I fell down from the blood loss . The creature looked at me with mocking eyes and started to walk towards me triumphly. Is it the end? Was my life going to end at the hands of a green thing like this? NO! With the last of my remaining strenght I swinged my sword at his legs only for it to dodge and kick my head. Ah so it will end like this... I am scared , ? dont want to die, Mom , dad ... Help My vision become blurry , but I faintly saw an arrow embedded to the creatures neck. Arc 1 ch 4 : Time flows A burning city , a peaceful life, Laughter of teenagers , cries of pain A beautiful smile of a young girl, a bautiful smile of a young woman Mountain of corpses belonging to honorable men Sitting on top of them a youth clad in silver All those bodies But just one sentence to hear What is honor that we hold so dear?..
Pain... Pain of flesh Pain of losing Pain of weakness I woke up to see to familiar faces. Me on my left and me on my right but one being much older. Young side of me screams! Fight it ! Get stronger... The other part shakes his head "No, stay behind the walls where its safe and comfortable. No! screams the first one. Fight , fight for your family, get stronger for them , never give up ! You are more then that ! it says fiercly. Other part looks conflicted first, then vanishes without a word. I will get stronger ! So it won''t happen again.This tale has been unlawfully lifted without the author''s consent. Report any appearances on Amazon. I opened my eyes, mothers teary face comes in my vision,she hugs me relentlesly saying how she was worried and how happy she was now that I woke up.She says she is proud of me for protecting my sister like a hero from the fairy tales.I turned my head left and saw my sister sleeping in the bed near me.Then I noticed my father and how he looked at me .Warm and full of joy,When he spoke to me his voice was filled with pride and I was too shocked to hear what he said but caught the words of proud and happy.
After the incident my sister closed herself in her room for days, sleeping after exhausting herself from cyrying. It''s all my fault for not being there faster , not being stronger , for getting beat up. I couldn''t protect her this time but it won''t happen again,I will get stronger for her sake, for the weak ones and for myself. While I was having this conversation in my head at somewhere far away in the free cities of Cartel black clouds were gathering.
Time skip for 2 years(Mc is 11.5) Clang clang clangclang Ahhh! a cry of pain came from one of the 10 guards facing against a youth,While the swords were clashing the youths wavy silver hair and well toned body for his age was gathering the attention of the ladies and his emerald green eyes was able to captivate anyone who looks at them. Even while he was facing against ten guards older than him his face showed no signs of fear or fatigue only concentration. He passed through their ranks like a gust of wind , he was smaller then them but that didn''t mean he was weaker,where he lacked strength he made up for it with his skill.He skillfully parried and attacked when he saw a oppening quickly disarming 3 more of his opponents. 6 more to go a 9 year old girl with brown hair and green eyes cheered from the sides, behind her was a bear like man with imposing aura. The youth danced around the field with moves fluid like water. He side stepped an another swing and parried parried a coming strike.One he parried threw a punch at him and the yout caught it, using the mans of weight he made him fly towarrd one of his allies. Thump "Agh shit " The two man crashed each other and fell down.He stood above them "Yield?" They nodded their heads "We yied !" 4 more to go Dodging a swing aimed at his shoulders followed by a overhead swing he saw it coming and quickly countered with a thrust to the mans neck. 3 left 2 of them made a formless assault while the 3rd one just stayed there. He dispatched them rather easily and turned his gaze to the last one The man shrugged and dropped his sword "I yield !" He turned his back to him. After 4 steps he suddenly ducked down barely able to evade the sword that passed over his head. "William you should always make sure your oppenent is truly uncapable of fighting, since you made a lethal mistake this win goes to the guars." William looked sheepish and scratched his neck. Announcement My exams are finally over and I will start writing again. But while I was writing a new chapter I thought that this fic isn''t planned out enough so I decided to write a bunch of chapters and release afterwards.So there probably won''t be any coming chapters for 2-3 weeks .This narrative has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. If you see it on Amazon, please report it. I''ll also work on worldbuilding and lore of the fiction plus with a lot of twists. So I will see you guys later. s
