someone's brain the doctor tells the patient Yan that he should stay calm and listen carefully to something we then see our protagonist with a completely devastated expression as if he had received the worst news in his life sometime later we see the hospital where the boy was he seemed downcast while holding a paper in his hand back to the moment when the doctor was saying something the man states to you Chan that after the exam he checked The boy's records he also says he couldn't provide any other answer and that all he could do was

prescribe pain medication for now to help Chan endure that pain suddenly we see a box of medicine falling to the floor and someone sitting in a computer chair you who was that person was thinking that it had already been 2 years since that event when he received that diagnosis looking to the side the boy sees that next to his dresser was a pile of trash He begins to cough as if feeling something terrible looking at his hand our protagonist sees droplets of blood on it and says that in the end it really seemed like he

would die soon Yan also says that no matter where he went the answer was always the same and that disease was indeed going to kill him suddenly Chan moves to his computer dresser and picks up his cell phone he sees a notification on his smartphone and tries to unlock it the boy looks Through some conversations with someone and thinks that he had no one to call you also says that in the end no one cared about him and he had no one to spend his last days with holding the Blood Stained tissue our protagonist comments

that in reality he couldn't even go out and have fun in his current state however suddenly the boy sees a series of papers on top of his dresser we see that the illness he had was teral cancer and those are various pamphlets Promoting falsely miraculous treatments however the boy irritated crumples everything and begins to throw it in the air frustrated you starts sweating in anger and crying as he looks at his computer screen we see that a game called inner lunatic was open on the PC while you says it's the only thing he has to

do the young man begins to create a new save in that game and make a new character trying to distract himself from his pain the boy wonders what kind Of character he should make this time he considers some options like being a sensitive Genius of magic or a genius of swordsmanship and martial arts however the game system notifies him that a penalty is given to the character for choosing two genius traits and that to remove it he should choose only one then see that the negative trait his character had was a time limit the young

man seeing this remains silent simply staring at his computer screen Chan says That just like him in real life his character also had limited time finally the system asks if the boy would like to start the game with the character created and he finally accepts suddenly something appears behind him and the boy begins to feel a terrible sensation our protagonist starts to lose his balance and eventually Falls from his chair youan supports himself on the desk as he tries to use his last bit of strength to stand up thinking he couldn't believe he Was going

to die at that moment suddenly the system appears in real life and informs that the character creation was successful and meanwhile you says he knew his death was really close however he at least wanted to choose the way he would die and at that moment the screen informs that the character's name was forcibly changed a process called synchronization begins loading and suddenly we see a beautiful balcony of a gigantic house the synchronization is Finally complete and yuchan begins to awaken in a new body with white hair lying on a bed startled the young man suddenly

gets up confused by the entire situation as he gets out of bed the boy thinks that for some reason he had a familiar feeling flowing throughout his body confused he begins walking around the room but suddenly stops and says he just had a hunch looking at himself in the mirror the young man sees a scene that he simply can't believe he states That he was in that game he played so much and looking at his face he realizes he was Knox a crazy character from the game the narrator begins to explain that Knox Von Ryan

Harbor is one of the three masters of darkness in inner lunatic this young man was born into one of the richest families in the world of lunatic and is the youngest of the five re Harbor siblings with a family Legacy of generations of sword and Magic Geniuses however Knox was the only one in the Entire family without any Talent being born without either of these talents he grew angry at the world and eventually formed an alliance with demons making him the greatest disaster in lunatics history the young man begins to touch his own face trying

to see if he really was Knox or if it was all a dream suddenly his system appears behind him with some information about Knox he simply can't believe he's seeing a status window right in front of him but Upon closer inspection he realizes it's all a bunch of nonsense and becomes completely frustrated you also looks at his negative traits and sees that he had many of them the boy Furious realizes this as the character he had created earlier before coming to that world our protagonist also notes that one of his negative traits was the time

limit meaning he would also die your sooner or later for some reason the young man says he can't quite remember why but looking At it it seems quite obvious and he thinks he wanted a character that resembled him in that game Chan explains that with nowhere to escape for someone whose only fate is death he just wanted to feel represented in the world of inner lunatic but of course he never imagined a character like this could bring disaster to that world suddenly the system states that youu has an unread message in his inbox and the

boy clicks to read it the screen begins Speaking to the boy and calls him y Chan however it says it should call him Knox now due to his confused m the young man can't remember if that name uchan was really his he thinks he doesn't know if his parents are alive or dead and All That Remains is the name they gave him our protagonist processes this information and realizes that was the name he used before coming to this body the message now says that uchan probably doesn't remember him but there was Something he wanted to

say right after it says it's been a long time and seeing this the boy becomes confused the message also mentions that the last 2 years must have been difficult for the young man and that he deserved to at least come to this place and live then suddenly the person on the other side side through the system welcomes uchan back to that world leaving him perplexed our protagonist becomes immersed in his thoughts trying to understand that he Was truly no longer in his world and that moreover this place was his new reality even so the person

behind the system responds to you that although there was much about his identity that couldn't be revealed it wanted to help the boy as much as they could reading this our protagonist is confused unable to understand who this person was the system asked the young man to enter the eldine academy build strength there and try to follow the main storyline of Inner lunatic as much as possible then all the truth will naturally be revealed however upon hearing this the young man feels very scared first eits his own head and says he's going to try to

understand everything that happened the first thing was that he was born as the final boss of the game inner lunatic and in addition he was supposed to follow the main story you states that no matter how he interprets it it only means he's eventually going to die however even if Inter lumic has indeed become his reality that doesn't mean he's going to give up on regaining his memories Chan says that no matter the cost he's going to follow the main storyline and like his lost memories he's going to discover what he's doing in that world

and finally he's going to survive no matter what it takes moreover the boy mentions that for the sake of this he was willing to become a True Villain according to what he believed the young man then says That now that he stopped to think not much as Chang compared to his old life since 2 years before losing his memories he was already terminally ill at every moment that pass meant one step closer to death and beyond that he wasted his life living in fear of when he would die and the only thing that changed was

the setting this setting changed to a world he knew better and understood almost everything about finally the young man asks the system what day it was today he Receives the news that it was February 4 1812 the young man then says this means he didn't have much time and this leaves him somewhat anxious but even so with a fiery resolve the young man declares he's going to begin his 28th attempt to clear that game our determined protagonist moves to open his bedroom door however something happens to his wrist a pain leaves the young man confused

hindering him from performing that action the system informs him that The negative condition has has been activated and due to the effects of constant ailment KNX had developed wrist inflammation after leaving his room the young man questions himself about what the hell was wrong with that body and wonders if it was really that fragile suddenly he bumps into a young and beautiful girl dressed in made attire this causes the woman to drop some dishes shattering them immediately as they fall to the ground she confused by The Collision suddenly questions who had done such a thing

but upon realizing it was the young Master Knox she panics examining the girl more closely our protagonist realizes that she was probably Rona the young woman desperate quickly apologizes and begs for forgiveness for committing the crime of harming the Lord our protagonist also recalls that despite being a peculiar character the only thing he remembered was her speaking behind KNX a back but Looking now at the innocent face of that girl he couldn't believe she would talk behind knox's back the young man knils and says he'll forgive her this time however there was something else with

a frightening expression KNX says that if she made a mistake again she would be punished mercilessly terrified Rona quickly apologizes and says she agrees with that looking looking around he notices that everything seemed very quiet and we see that all the other Servants had an expression of fear they seem to be in simple shock confused by the boy's Behavior the young man realizes he forgot he was supposedly supposed to be insane since in the game Knox was like that and frustrated he wonders what kind of Life the previous owner of the body LED at this

moment Rona asks where the young master was going so early and he quickly replies that he was on his way to the training Hall all the servants are incredulous at His responses as they did not expect that from the boy right after saying this he asks his made Rona to accompany him leaving the girl in shock imagining that her master is going to hit her we then see the two young people walking slowly through the corridors up until now yuchan had been silent only thinking that first of all he needed to survive he states that

After experiencing the sensation of dying he had one certainty now and that certainty was that he Really didn't want to die in any way so to survive he needed to adapt to his new circumstances as quickly as possible suddenly you simply says that this doesn't mean he had no chance and everything depends on his effort and Rona upon hearing her speak just seems confused our protagonist continues to speak in his mind and thinks that he played that game 27 times and therefore knew most of the Hidden aspects of that City the young man activates his

status Window as he begins to explain the game's story you informs that the game inner lunatic has a story that pits Angels against demons alongside the Empire and this game had a huge fan base around the world the special part about this game was the large number of customizations allowing different players to play with different styles while lower traits like common and talented could be assimilated multiple times in most cases genius traits could Only be assimilated once and using a genius trait makes it easier to reach the top of that world however our protagonist only

has two of them he also says that in that game there is a concept called trait penalty with a certain procedure you can acquire two genius traits but this brings disadvantages one of these traits was the genius of combat swordsmanship which grants sword skills and allows the user to reach the Pinnacle of fencing on the Other hand there is the Mana sensitive genius which increases one's magic skill and makes spellcasting more efficient he also thinks that there are many other useful traits one of them is the main character skill which allows the user to see

other characters status Windows another is the master of acting which enables the user to easily deceive people in any situation there's also the seal mentality which when used in battle allows the user to regulate their mental Strength staying calm the only problem would be the negative traits like the time limit which is the worst of them all looking at his various negative abilities the boy size thinking that he was definitely a walking Hospital Yan finally says to himself that for people with a cold negativity unless the user has a warm ability it's almost impossible to

step into a frozen area and for constant ailment he's going to pass out at least once in every chapter Scratching his head yuchan says he really had no choice and should just take it one step at a time while looking up at the sky seeing this Rona thinks they were almost at the Training hall and questions whether that boy really plans to go in there until something surprises her our protagonist was standing still staring at something while Rona just watches him he finally opens the doors of the training Hall thinking there was something he had

to Do first we then see the curse of weakness which causes the player with it to have their growth rate half so KNX states that he needs to get rid of it with a sword in hand our protagonist is affirming to himself that no matter how much he thinks about it he can only come to one conclusion before revealing what that conclusion was he executes a sword attack and finally says that the conclusion he reached is that he's screwed we then see that after just a Few swings of the sword the young man is already

completely tired and exhausted KNX states to himself that it was like reading the beginning of a story and then throws his sword away the narrator then emphasizes our protagonist who couldn't even swing the sword more than 10 times and it's revealed that all of this was caused by the curse shortly after Knox gathers his strength and starts to get up while looking around and thinking that at least he had a Bunch of weapons available to him and the reason for this was that the rein Harbor family's Origins began with the sword he thinks that when

it comes to the rein Harbor family among everyone the best way to describe them would be as the high class of the blade and darkness the reason this family earned this title was due to the ability to imbue black Mana into sword blades to finish off their enemies all of this was thanks to the Commander's blade also Known as the tyrannical blade of darkness which has been passed down to each family leader Knox also tells himself that aside from that fencing there were several advantages to being part of a noble family as they held high

power and influence in the world but by far the greatest advantage of being from that family was the enormous amount of money they had happily he states that money was everything good in that world as he thinks of all the things he could Do Yan also mentions that his Ryan Harbor family is one of the largest noble families in history and of course this means they are extremely wealthy to the point that even the youngest and most useless son who was him had enough money to never need to work it's as if knox's father Theo

didn't care whether his son spent money wisely or not the boy also notes that to begin with Knox isn't that type of character the youngest son of an aristocratic family Instead his archetype and character type was actually quite clear Knox after Gathering all his strength manages to stand up again even with his legs trembling he states that until Rona brings what he had requested he wouldn't even be able to run a few minutes later see the maid arriving in the Training hall with a cart the girl tells her young master that the towel water and

sword he had asked for ready but in her mind she wonders if Knox really plans to Exercise since that wasn't like him the boy asks if there was really no one around and immediately after he asks Roman to come over to him the girl is very frightened thinking her master was going to hit her however the boy doesn't do that and immediately after for some strange reason he grabs his maid's ear after that he begins to tell the young woman something we don't know yet Rona startled upon hearing everything her master ask questions when the

boy would Want to use that money she also states that all the ideas her master shared with her were trash however before the girl can continue talking the young Master orders her to shut up and go carry out what he commanded as she walks away the girl thinks that this boy hasn't changed a bit after seeing her leave our protagonist says to himself that he doesn't know how fast Rona will be but she'll probably be there by morning Knox goes to the small table Where she brought the items and serves himself some tea while drinking

the tea his mate had brought he notes that he needs to figure out a way to resolve that curse and his stamina as well s suddenly someone approaches him calling him by his name looking back the boy realizes it's the head Butler Rodwell diarch he begins to recall that as one of the main administrators of the Ryan Harbor estate Rodwell isn't someone who can be dealt with lightly and in Addition Rodwell is the adviser to knox's Father the ovon rang Harbor the family leader trembling the boy comments that this must be an event he has

to face and immediately afterward he turns around Knox also notes that Rodwell generally wouldn't care about him and wonders if the man noticed something strange going on but on the other hand the boy remarks that he has his own way of dealing with this the boy activates his master of acting skill and asks the Butler what he was doing there as he should be beside the family leader the servant promptly replies that after receiving orders from the family leader he was there to deliver some news to Knox narch explains that one of the news items

is that the boy would be able to attend dinner that night confused and awkward our protagonist thinks he hasn't managed to find out anything about that Family yet and even so he's already going to have dinner with them to get Out of it he ask the butler to tell his father he can't attend the Butler and his mind wonders why his Superior one and knocks at the dinner and then explains to the boy that the young lady of the still in her family had come to visit and train there and after picturing the girl's appearance

he states that if the young Master didn't attend the family leader would certainly be angry sighing and realizing there was no way out KNX that agrees and says he Understands the position he's in immediately after the butler notes that the boy was acting strange that day and Knox asks what he meant by that narch responds that his young Master had never been interested in swordsmanship before and even so he was practicing in the hul on his own intruding into the boy's life the butler asks why he's doing this the boy changing his entire Aura to

something aggressive responds that he's going to make one thing very clear he Orders narch not to DARE cross the line being nothing more than a mere Butler with no shame our protagonist states that what he does or doesn't do is none of rodwell's business and that he'll make his own decisions the man not seeming to handle this well still appears somewhat intimidated he bows before Knox and apologizes for his misstep immediately after our protagonist turns and begins to leave the area on the other hand Rodwell Wonders if something had happened to that boy and says

he'll report this to the family leader a short while later we see the beautiful mansion of the Ryan Harbor estate our protagonist who had just left the training Hall was trembling commenting that it gave him chills since he never imagined an event like that would happen the boy wonders what would happen if the possession had been activated but notes that it doesn't matter since it didn't happen anyway KNX Starts to recall who that young lady from the still in her family was whom his Butler had mentioned since he had already played that game confused the

boy wonders what that girl was doing there and then we skip forward to the evening sitting at one of the tables a foolish boy begins to mock someone surprised that person came there to eat we see that the target of this mockery is Knox who was sitting there calmly moreover those who were bullying him Were the twins hearts and Allen who continue to ridicule their poor brother one of them comments that he never thought Knox would show his face there and it was unbelievable they continue mocking the boy stating that he had made eye contact

with the maid and was probably a lost cause on the other hand KNX just listens to it in silence and in his mind responds that he didn't do anything anything suddenly the doors of the Hall open and someone important Arrived stating that it seemed everyone was there this person was theovon rang Harbor the owner of the entire mansion and Fortune hu Shan seeing that man realizes that he was the leader of the rein Harbor family knox's father and in addition he was accompanied by that girl the appearance of Talia Von still in her is then

revealed as she introduces herself to everyone in the family with her radiant Beauty the family leader then says that the young lady from the Still in her family requested night training there and therefore she'll be spending some time in that territory finally theovon asks all of his children to welcome the young lady our protagonist seeing that girl thinks that Talia will be the future heroine in her lunatic and she's the character who opposes the Future Villain Knox and sometime from now Talia will drive a sword into his chest knox's father seeing his son there is

surprised that He actually decided to show up for some reason the tension arises between Knox and the guest and they finally make their way to the dining room there the family was apparently eating peacefully nox just stares at his two brothers who tease him throughout the dinner one of the twins calls his father and says it's time to decide who will be the next to enter Elden Academy and hearing this Knox finally seems interested Theo agrees and says it was time to make a Decision our protagonist explains that Elden Academy is the most important place

within inner lunatic The Academy students face all sorts of situations and they fight demons there which is the main story of the game in his mind the boy notes that he needs to enter that Academy and moreover he needs to gather his own allies while keeping most of the original plot structure Theo then starts a speech stating that everyone they're likely already knows but the academy Only allow allows three individuals from each family and this is because they want to limit the influence of Nobles and since he already used the first two spots for his

first and second Sons only one entry ticket remained for the rein Harbor family Knox thinks that before making allies he needs to secure the ticket to the academy at any cost as that's what the system asked him to do Theo continues his speech saying that's why he decided to follow the family Traditions as this had been the method his ancestors used immediately the weak young man with white hair supposes that his father was suggesting a fight among the brothers hearing this the man thinks he never imagined his weakest son would be the first to react

to this and is truly surprised by that attitude immediately afterward he responds that the boy was correct and mentions that the fight's date would be in one month and they will decide the next entrance Through a duel in the training Hall one of the twins suggests that Knox stay quiet to avoid embarrassing himself and the other responds that weak idiots like him who have never wielded a sword don't stand a chance for some reason the guest the heroin seems bothered by this in an imposing manner KNX simply replies while sipping his wine that his brother

can only say that after winning one of the twins becomes irritated and asks if his brother really thinks someone like him Could defeat strong people as he's nothing but a failure our protagonist thinks that this duel is yet another event he needs to face to secure the entry ticket annoyed with the situation the boy notes that he's not obligated to listen to those insults and prepares to respond proudly the boy simply states that he will be the one to enter Elden Academy Theo hearing this from the person he least expected feels a bit incredulous the

two twins are completely Furious at their brother's statement Talia impressed by the boy's confidence comments that he seems quite certain of his abilities for some reason Knox doesn't feel happy with that reaction in his mind the boy notes that he's just caught the attention of someone he shouldn't have sometime later we see some papers on a small table in a main hall Theo in his office say that as the butler's report suggested there seems to be something different about Knox ronell Promptly replies that it's just his opinion but it seems true in his mind knox's

father thinks that if he hadn't seen what happened that day himself he wouldn't have believed it the patriarch appears quite thoughtful wanting to know what caused this change in his son and considering the worst case scenario the man wonders if his son has been possessed by a demon however he simply says that the boy has caught his attention and then dismisses his Butler Finally he asks the butler to keep an eye on Knox sometime later we see our protagonist running around the training Hall while a few mates comment on it they seem completely confused since

running is the only thing that boy does even tired and exhausted KNX doesn't seem deterred and continues running confused yuchan wonders why he can hear everything the maids are saying right after that the boy's stamina status increases by 0.1 Knox is extremely Dissatisfied with that small increase and tells himself that he's running because his stamina is incredibly low he explains that the condition to use the genius of combat swordsmanship is to have stamus stats above four and unless he's as weak as Knox he should already be able to use it right away but with the

weakness curse in effect it's taken him a month to increase his stamina by only 19 the boy explains that the weakness curse is a curse that reduces His growth rate by half and after running so much our protagonist managed to increase his stamina by Z 0.1 additionally since the time limit trait also has his growth rate he has to work four times harder compared to others still even with all that effort thanks to the time limit trait he can only reach a maximum of 15 stamina but he says he won't worry about that now sometime

later we see Rona once again arriving with a cart and calling for her Young Master saying she brought all the supplies he requested nox's pleas as the girl was faster than he expected and immediately after he replied that he should be able to make some progress now we see that on the table Rona brought there were several extremely unique and strange ingredients for some reason confident our protagonist thinks he's just going to use his knowledge to solve all these problems sometime later we see the two inside the training room and the Maid questions why have

her young Master wanted all those things she notes that the poison is difficult to handle and that people generally avoid such things and besides the scroll is the only useful item there the young man however simply replies that it's hard to handle because no one knows the right way to use it our protagonist turns and grabs one of the vials on the table to perform something for some reason Knox without hesitation drinks the poison inside that Vial leaving Rona horrified right after that the boy starts feeling sick and comments that it was indeed lethal however

for some reason the system notified him that he managed to increase his health by 15 times but the death countdown would start soon the girl then says she's going to call the head Butler however the boy asks her to stop after doing this Knox consumes one more of the strange items on the table the Golem core Rona becomes even more terrified And at that moment the system notifies that the young man will start to petrify slowly however however the hidden mechanism is activated and the three-headed gorgon's poison reacts with the golen core with this Knox

realizes that his plan was finally working he explains that originally the Golem core was used to petrify people to quickly increase their defense or to create artificial Golems however when combined with the gorgon's poison and effect is Triggered and the negative trait curse of weakness disappears Knox is completely thrilled by this while R remains extremely apprehensive even so the boy tells himself there was still one more step while his maid asks if he's okay for some reason the young man begins to remove his shirt leaking the girl utterly shocked embarrassed she covers her eyes to

avoid seeing the scene however she realizes that the boy was reaching for the vial she had Brought yuchan pours the Dew the fairy of remembrance over his body causing the petrification effects from the Golem core to disappear the do of the fairy of remembrance also reacts with the core and as it does Knox mentions that it brings him a strange feeling the hidden mechanism is activated and thus our protagonist temporarily gains the trait blessing of evolution and he's delighted as everything went acoss according to plan finally he notes there's only one More step and moves

to grab the scroll on the table the young man uses it doubling his stamina growth rate once again in his mind uchan thinks he managed to eliminate the curse and in addition the blessing of evolution is limiting the effects of the time limit trait along with the scroll now his Evolution rate should be twice that of most people at this moment meaning he could increase his stamina stats much faster the maid on the other hand afraid Her young Master would die jumps into his arms embracing him in tears she asks if her young Master is

okay as what he did was Madness she says that the boy started taking off his clothes out of nowhere and she thought something was wrong with his head but ignoring Rona the only thing Knox asks for is a towel even so Rona isn't entirely satisfied and continues shedding tears our protagonist thinks that since the curse has been removed maybe he should go Easier on his maid Yan then tells the girl he's fine and Rona asks if he's sure he'll be okay even without her calling the head Butler the boy gives a slight smile and explains

that everything is fine and Rona asks what he's going to do with his plan all set the boy simply responds that he's going to run as much as he can sometime later we see the sun Illuminating the beautiful ran Harbor Mansion as usual Knox is running incessantly to improve His stamina stats Rona isn't resting either and is right behind him carrying a towel to dry him off for some reason someone is watching them run from a distance it's revealed that the person watching is Talia who wonders how someone is weak as Knox accepted a duel

against his brothers talia's maid Emma scolds her and tells her mistress she shouldn't view the youngest ran Harbor in that way she tries to say that it's rude but Talia gets annoyed and asks to Stop being bothered Talia states that Knox doesn't even know how to hold a sword and all he does is run the young woman adds that even the other ran Harbor Knights offered to teach him but the boy had rejected them all finally she states that in a month that boy will get a beating and that will be the end of it

in her mind she says that's certainly what will happen but something is making her anxious because for some reason something is bothering her Talia Decides to take action and immediately walks in a certain direction while her maid Emma tries to stop her but fail fails a short time later she arrives outside on the training field where Knox is exercising the boy is sitting resting from his strenuous run the redhaired girl approaches and introduces herself as Talia confused our protagonist wonders to himself why that girl came there to speak with him he questions what she wanted

and says he had heard That name before for some reason Talia is surprised by that cold attitude and wonders why being very proud the noble girl imagines that Knox was too stunned by her beauty and that's why he must have acted that way shortly after the girl says she had something to ask and wonders if he could really defeat his brothers she also states that he couldn't think he had a chance just because he was running like that it didn't make sense feeling like she's the Best thing around the girl declares that if he wanted

she' help him however coldly our protagonist refuses and says he isn't interested and she could just leave Talia questions how the boy dared to do that since she was only trying to offer him help seeing this Rona says to herself that if he talks like that to everyone girls are going to hate him Talia gets angry and bumps into Knox as she storms out completely Furious the boy is confused by her reaction and States that it complicated everything while his maid looks at him with disdain observing all the characteristics of that girl the young man

says that no matter how much he saw those talents were insane he explains that in inner lunatic most adult men have a stamina status of four and her stamina status was incredible Knox also mentions that even though this is nothing compared to the three sword masters of the continent or the potential of one of the four Arch Mes she at least had the capacity to reach their level the boy also comments that Talia might be able to kill some demons with that fire attribute of of hers Knox explains in his mind that the magical fire

attribute Talia uses eventually evolves into white flames and in the future is used to burn demonized Knox that's why if he could make tal his ally the story of the future would change drastically and he needed to find a way to follow the original story while Avoiding death however first and foremost he thinks it won't be possible to be on good terms with the person who will kill him in the future a month later we see sunlight passing through the windows and Illuminating the ran Harbor Mansion the one walking around there was Talia strolling slowly

through the corridors the girl seemed to be extremely thoughtful about something Talia recalls the moment when the Warriors praise her because she learned Things very quickly however for some reason the girl feels extremely uncomfortable being praised and having the talent of the still in her family this brings back startling memories of the day T lost a fight to her sister these memories make the girl pensive and she grips her sword with anger and fury sad the girl wonders if she could really become a knight the narrator explains that a knight must never be consumed by

greed and should remain restrained Sacrificing for the greater good and above all being just Talia asks herself if that arrogant boy could defeat the brothers who had been training for years while all he did was run then determined the girl states that Knox wouldn't be capable of such Feats the next day we see the place where the battle would take place at the center of the Arena stood our protagonist facing his opponent who was part of his family in a balcony inside several nobles were Watching including Theo Italia one of the people also watching was

Theo's first wife filia along with Rodwell Theo asks his Butler what outcome he thinks that duel will have the the young man seems a bit uneasy answering that question we skip to a bit later after the butler Reveals His opinion and at that moment the judge asks everyone there to pay immediate attention as he is about to say something important the judge announces that the official duel To decide who should gain the right to enter the academy would begin at that moment and he finally starts the battle our protagonist brother doesn't hesitate to charge at

his younger sibling trying to end the fight immediately back to the moment when Theo asked ronell the butler then says that considering the young Master's previous performances Allan was sure he would win Theo upon hearing this says that was also what he thought but in his mind Rodwell looking at his Master wonders if the patriarch was expecting a different outcome however he truly believed that young Master Knox had changed but he still didn't think the boy would win and finally he mentions that this would truly be impossible as he watches our protagonist standing in front

of his brother the servant comments that he once also walked the path of a KN alongside the family patriarch and sometimes the art of the sword can be beautiful but other Times it can be quite simple as its level is determined by training time and how much people value its craft moreover there was only one way for someone to turn the tables and make the person in front of the meal that was having overwhelming Talent which is why the butler wonders if young Master Knox was born with that kind of talent suddenly Theo replies that

even while believing in the most likely outcome the possibility is never zero and if Knox Was born with ran Harbor blood he still had the chance of being born with the talent of a sword genius our protagonist realizes that his sword and combat genius trait was inactive and questions why he was so unlucky even with his High luck status he also mentions that he couldn't reach level four stamina as he recalls the moments he trained and reached 38 Rona who was right behind him asks if she really needed to keep chasing after her Lord our

protagonist Then replies that it wouldn't be fun if she weren't there since no one else would take care of him without any shame the boy hands his handkerchief with which he was wiping himself to the maid who makes a cute face the boy wonders if his maid was cursing him mentally but Rona replies that she wasn't while she accidentally bites her own lip youan looking at the girl thinks that all that running must also be improving his Al stamina looking at the girl's stats he Notices that Rona had 45 stamina incredulous the boy questions what

on Earth was in that family's water well since even their maid had more stamina than an average person frustrated while looking at his stats our protagonist complains as after all the hard work he did for a month he was still weaker than a secondary character Rona on the other hand informs her master that the sun was setting and that you should rest since the boy's duel was tomorrow looking at The sky the boy wasn't sure if he was ready as he needed more time returning to the present his brother was calling him being the jerk

he was says that as Knox older brother He suggests the boy surrender he continues acting Superior saying that his brother Knox was a disgrace to the family and that it would hurt to beat him up however Knox realizes the boy was just lying Allan replies that it was obvious and reveals that in truth his plan was to give his Brother a beating and brag about it to Talia seeing he was being underestimated KNX suggests that his brother Allan shouldn't do that in his mind the boy realizes his brother had eight stamina and there was no

way he could defeat him with what he had at that moment confused Knox wonders what he should do now but at that moment the judge declares that this duel serves to determine who will represent the leader's name in the magic Academy the judge also declares that Regardless of who wins this fight both must accept the outcome in his mind uchan wondered what he should do since if he lost here everything would be over his journey to retrieve his memories would be lost finding out who sent him that message and most importantly his life beyond the

one-year deadline would also be ruined which is why he grips his sword tightly we then returned to the moment before when the judge gave the signal to start the fight and Allan Charged at his opponent as a way to escape our protagonist rolled to the side dodging and evading the imminent strike still at high speed he uses his stopping foot managing to Halt immediately Allan seeing that merely says that his little brother had a bit of luck without hesitation the white-haired boy continues attacking Knox who thinks that this game has an evident rule the rule

is that when you lose you lose everything but if you Somehow overcome everything somehow you gain it all then at that moment the boy's stamina increases by one point and he realizes his plan was working noticing his brother's reaction Allan questions if his incredible strikes left the boy so impressed so he continues attacking saying their few hits will help Knox regain his sense of reality facila who was in the audience thinks that all those talks about the change in personality of that little one were in Vain and that she worried for nothing watching her son

beating up Knox she comments that just like the first two the third rean Harbor spot in the academy will be occupied by one of her sons she calls knock's pathetic and as she looks at Theo she thinks that one day that family will be hers while showing the malicious expression Theo who was in the audience states that he had placed many expectations on his son Knox and wonders if that was as far as He could go Rodwell watching the beating suggests that his master stopped the duel as it shouldn't continue because he fears Master Knox

might suffer severe injuries the patriarch thinks that Allen and Harts are reasonably talented but compared to their older brothers they are merely mediocre sadly watching the fight Theo says he will have to accept that none of his sons will have the power to dominate everything and place the world under their heel and seeing That Knox is extremely tired and struggling to breathe he states that apparently none of his sons will be worthy of the vanquisher the man then sighing begins to rise saying that he will have to stop the duel however at that moment our

protagonist while defending himself from multiple attacks receives the stamina he wanted and finally The Genius of swordsmanship and combat is activated Allan seeing his brother's strange expression questions If the boy finally realized what he had lost but at that moment the boy activates the genius time skill and begins to unleash his power our protagonist begins to think that someone whose name couldn't remember once said that a genius and an ordinary person experiened time differently and after activating that skill he finally understood that time passed like that for a genius he states that in his New

Perspective everything was moving very Slowly as if the flow of time had become several times slower but it was clear that his new ability didn't automatically make him a perfect swordmaster and this ability alone couldn't guarantee his domination of the battle however he was no longer a dormant swordsmanship and combat genius therefore everything was resolved and at that moment Allan prepares to strike his brother who is watching it in slow motion in the blink of an eye Knox Manages to Parry the attack and send his brother's sword flying away Allan is in complete shock seeing

that little genius Rebel in front of him our protagonist on the other hand is extremely excited thinking that Victory is entirely his after being struck by nox a weapon Allen's sword flies far from him making it impossible for him to continue fighting having taken a hit directly to his hand the young man crouches irritated by what just happened our Protagonist tells his opponent that this is fun while displaying a Terri terrifying expression Allan is extremely outraged and questions what the boy is talking about however is ignored our protagonist while ignoring his brother thinks that even

so he couldn't let his guard down Knox explains that he couldn't get distracted as unfortunately his ability only lasted 5 minutes so he needed to finish everything within that time the young man then reveals to his Brothers that he had been going easy on them until that moment however everything was too boring so he would have to change that finally KNX suggests they end it quickly and asks that the two twins fight him simultaneously Allan and are extremely offended by that suggestion from their brother without wasting time our protagonist asked his father for permission to

fight both of his brothers at the same time Theo who was incredulous at the entire scene he Was witnessing stays silent for a moment as he thinks about it Roger and Talia were also in disbelief wondering what that boy was doing knox's father feeling proud thinks that his son's energy had changed and it seemed like he had something up his sleeve so it was worth watching a little longer the patriarch without hesitation permits the two against one confrontation as his son request requested it of his own free will vicilia on the other hand is not

Happy at all and tries to question her husband who ignores her immediately afterward the man declares that the twins should begin their fight against Knox Allan retrieves his sword and hearts questions how that brat dared to humiliate them in front of their own father however despite the whole situation our protagonist appears extremely calm and with a radiant smile the twins prepare for battle and ask Knox to do the same without hesitation They charge at knocks together and in sync aiming to end the fight as quickly as possible however even alone Knox with his new ability

activated manages to defend himself from both strikes one of the twins tries to instruct his brother to approach Knox from the left but not wanting to take orders the young man becomes irritated and tells his brother to shut up even receiving attacks from all directions Knox remains unfa and continues defending himself the system Notifies Knox that due to the special effect of Genius time his swordsmanship genius proficiency has increased which makes him happy several attacks are directed at him nevertheless he manages to pair them all the twins no longer in syn and even arguing fumble

and collide with each other they distanced themselves from Knox frustrated by the entire situation even Talia could no longer contain her excitement and stands up to watch the fight Knox pleased Thinks that all the eyes on him were practically questioning how he had changed so much he even says that his two brothers who always mistreated him are now making the same expression the twin's exchanged glances as if preparing a plan but at that moment our protagonist interrupts saying he had already warned them Knox declares that the two should not be distracted during a fight in

a immediately approaches them in the blink of an eye the boy strikes Both of his brothers while passing between them without hesitation he continues attacking Allen and Harts who begin to step back completely cornered by his strikes while attacking he thinks that although it was a fight with something important at stake just wielding his sword made him happy relentlessly he keeps striking his brothers to end the fight as quickly as possible at that moment Rell Talia and Theo are simply astounded by that single Boy fighting two people and winning one of the twins being attacked

says that it should be simply impossible but soon after he is thrown to the ground our protagonist has managed to Corner the twins with his strikes leaving them practically defeated on the ground and at that moment knox's genius time ability ends and the boy stands still in front of his two brothers even with the victory he feels a bit sad that his ability had already ended the twin's Mother tries to call their sons concerned about them Knox wasting no time asks the judge if the winner had been decided and the man promptly agrees finally the

judge announces to everyone in the room that the winner is Young Master Knox Ryan Harbor Allan lying on the ground is simp furious with anger immediately afterward he drops his sword disappointed in his own abilities Theo just watches the scene unsure of what he was seeing with his own eyes was truly Real Knox as clever as he was looks back at his father to see if he had a proud expression soon after the boy bows and announces to everyone that he will take his leave without hesitation he begins to leave the room with an imposing

air Talia on the other hand wanted to try talking to him but only watches his back she tells herself that she needs to speak to the boy at that exact moment a while later we see that the the sun was practically setting after leaving our Protagonist was carrying himself differently completely exhausted he looks at his hand and notices it was Bloody supposing it must have been from using the ability for too long Knox explains that the genius time ability has a major flaw and that he receives a debuff status known as decline if he exceeds

the duration the system notifies that due receiving the decline to buff his life has been reduced by 2 days and 17 hours Knox then thinks that this is The worst possible debuff as it permanently reduces his lifespan and makes him more susceptible to illness however he says he is relieved that the decline didn't happen in front of others as if anyone else had seen it his admission to the academy would have been canceled the boy seemed a bit lost but at that moment Talia arrives behind him to speak with him as she approaches she asks

if Knox got hurt during the fight but the only thing the boy does is feel Irritated by her presence there seeing that he was discovered by Talia the boy becomes irritated and states that he can't let his father find out about the decline of his ability before he could say anything Talia says she can't believe he accepted the fight with his brothers with such a broken body feeling embarrassed she starts playing with her hair as she prepares to say something finally the shy girl says that she seems to have misunderstood Knox the narrator Explains that

the only thing Talia saw in the past month was that Knox never wielded a sword on the first day all she saw was him clumsily swinging a wooden sword and the fact that such a person could win was a sure sign that he was talented we go back to the moment when Talia was running after the boy thinking she needed to ask how he trained and got so strong however when the duels ended and she saw Knox she realized the boy had had practically injured himself Alone confused the girl wondered what was going on she

asked herself why he was like that telling herself that Knox didn't surpass his brothers because he was a talented genius Talia states that Knox wasn't the useless person the rumors said he was quite the opposite since the boys simply worked hard to win and gave it his all back to the present our protagonist was coughing due to the decline and Talia approaches him asking if he was okay however coldly the boy Brushes off the girl's hand asking not to be touched in his mind he admits that over the last 2 years having been obsess obsessed

with games it was difficult for him to interact well with others embarrassed the only thing Talia does is apologize but Knox is extremely confused by her reaction Talia says she didn't know Knox took swordsmanship so seriously since she had heard he was fragile from birth she then reveals that now she understands why the boy has only Been doing stamina training and apologizes for having misunderstood him the girl also states that acting useless probably wasn't what Knox wanted since her made Emet people can make mistakes like that our protagonist not being used to interacting with people

doesn't know how to respond as the girl was very honest just like in the game he notes that although he knows Talia has the traits of a knight she's from a proud and respected Duke family and admitting She was wrong must be difficult for her the boy takes advantage of this situation and says that if that's how Talia sees him he ask sir please not to tell others that he was bleeding seeing that it was a matter of Pride the girl simply responds that she won't reveal anything to anyone KNX is relieved as he probably

doesn't need to worry about others finding out about it now and before leaving and returning to his room he asked Talia to keep her promise the Young girl becomes quite shy as if a spark of affection were Ting in her heart later we see the Moonlight Illuminating the beautiful Ren Harbor Mansion Theo who was in his study says that it seems his guess was correct boasting he asks Rodwell what he thinks of his son nox's Talent the butler says that at first he couldn't understand why he allowed himself to get hit but after analyzing enough

among the children his age including all the other young Masters it seems Knox was the best of them all the patriarch readily agrees and says he doesn't know exactly why but he felt that Knox still had some talents he was hiding from everyone that's why the patriarch asks his Butler to monitor his son's every move and to do nothing but observe everything KNX us closely looking at his hands the man wonders if Knox had enough talent to inherit the tyrannical blade of Darkness he clenches his fists and affirms to his servant That there wasn't much

time left thoughtfully he tells Rodwell that what the boy was doing was of utmost importance to the family the servant seeing that his master was truly relying on him simply bows saying he will do his best we move forward to a later time in the room where our protect was the system notifies that he has completed the tutorial Mission and that he has accomplished the task of winning his first fight seeing this the boy says That this world has become reality but the game system is still there which feels strange the system then begins to

distribute rewards for Knox having completed two missions the first of which is granting him three status points to allocate extremely frustrated Knox complains that he ran for an entire month just to increase his stamina by two points because of this he feels the system should have given him this reward earlier Yan opens his status window Considering where he needs to invest his new points finally he comments that the status he needs most right now is in stamina but luck so he uses his three remaining points to increase it he explains that the reason for doing

this is that in the game inner lunatic luck is the most valuable attribute so KNX decides that now he's going to check if he made a good choice by raising it thus the system completes Knox of rewards one of which is a voucher for a random gacha Along with a skill voucher reading this the boy is ecstatic saying he's going to test his luck the young man activates the gasa and an apparent interdimensional structure appears like a prize grabbing machine seeing it in front of him the boy remarks that it's very strange he then uses

his voucher to spin the wheel thinking that when luck is maxed out the chance of getting an intermediate or higher rank scroll is 95% yian explains that the basic or Lower rank is white the intermediate rank is silver and the advanced rank is gold the highest rank is Rainbow so the boy hopes to get something gold or higher finally the capsule exits the machine and prepares to reveal its contents a golden light shines and at last a golden scroll appears before our protagonist upon opening the scroll the system notifies KNX that he has gained the

advanced trait fear of the supreme ruler the young man on the other hand is Extremely satisfied hardly believing he actually managed to get it and the system shows him the skill information he explains that the skill has the effect of reducing all the stats of anyone with a total status value lower than noxa by 20% extremely excited and happy the boy simply comments that this is fantastic and he can hardly believe he got a debuff skill however the boy still had another reward from the mission the system asks if Knox would Like to use the

single use skill confirmation voucher reading this the boy thinks that the skill he'll get with it is already decided as he wants to obtain one of the Hidden pieces the reinh harbor family possesses and to acquire this piece he needs that specific skill the young man notes that Theo will soon gather all the siblings at the estate and that's where he'll use it thinking about this the boy also mentions that it was almost time for That person to return to the reinh harbor estate our protagonist states that it has been a while since the Elden

Academy's Grace ceremony ended and probably the second son would return soon hitting his head and the boy notes that he'll have to find the hidden piece and deal with grain leaving him with no time to rest the only Misfortune is that he probably doesn't need to worry about Talia anymore as that issue should be resolved the boy notes that Talia isn't The type of character to break her promises and she has no reason to approach him again we cut to a Time skip the next day within the Mansion Knox remarks that this was just a

thought he had the mic before but he was completely wrong we then see Talia standing silently in front of him confused the young man says that already settled everything yesterday and asks what the girl wants shy and embarrassed she simply asks our protagonist to say Something however the boy seems confused by that statement and asks what she's talking about she then asks Knox to reveal how he became so strong so quickly upon hearing that question Knox remains silent for a moment he states that Talia had been secretly watching him the whole time and had seen

that he only trained for a month realizing she been found out and watching KNX walk past her the girl is shocked however she runs after him pleading for the boy to Just tell her how he trained in his mind yuchan thinks that from what he remembers Talia is a character who dreams of being recognized by her sister the boy then turns and says that before Talia asks for something like that or considers how she should train before all that she should first reflect on the talent she has hearing this it's as if a door that

was closed opens in the girl's mind making her thoughtful our protagonist thinks that he's never Comforted anyone before and wonders what he should say he asks Talia not to compare herself to others as she's been doing and then he leaves silent the girl just watches as our protag walks out of the room Talia feels extremely shy thinking that boy just set a cool line and simply left afraid the boy hopes that girl doesn't follow him feeling extremely exhausted the young man tells himself that he can't let Talia see him obtaining the hidden piece as that

might Lead her to kill him gathered there was Theo along with his twin and Sons just waiting for Knox to arrive after joining his family Knox finally arrives at the ran Harbor family stable after some time he thinks that this stable is famous for breeding the best horses on the continent Rodwell who had been summoned by his master approaches seeing that everyone is there Theo states that he is sure everyone knows why they're gathered in that place he explains that from now On his children will choose the horse they will keep forever hearing this Knox

becomes extremely excited saying that it was finally time the boy explains that horses are considered secred animals both on the continent and within his family he informs that if someone decides to become a mage or a knight they must choose a horse when they are young to have a lifelong companion furthermore the Elden Academy teaches horsemanship and in the other part of The game there are several massive Wars and if you lose your horse you must raise another and moreover Transportation magic is very expensive and horses are a very important means of transportation therefore the

boy decides he will choose the best horse possible Theo then reveals that as Knox was the winner of The Duel he should choose first the man tells his son he'll only given one chance as Knox mox's losing Brothers as he heads toward the stable The boy's father says he's curious wanting to know which horse his youngest would choose the young man passes by several of the animals thinking that actually they're quite cute however he's searching for a specific one and finally he finds it he spots an extremely elegant grayco horse our protagonist without hesitation walks

toward it and tells his father that he'll choose that one for some reason Allan and Herz along with Theo are extremely surprised by This choice in a rare act of kindness knox's father suggests he pick another horse and says he'll give the boy another chance seeing that he'd been given another chance KNX supposes that his father probably thought the decision was very poor but he is certain of the opposite and immediately afterward he activates the status window of that animal to an it the boy explains that most summoned creatures are divided into ranks and depending

on their evolution They can increase much more than one rank this meant that the horse could even reach a high rank and that's why it was his choice moreover it was an obsidian horse the rarest type among many others with its name referring to a type of volcanic rock the boy notes that if his father knew that even he would have chosen this horse however it's less tempting now due to the negative trait as many of the hores traits are deactivated because it has a debuff it's Revealed that the horse's negative trait is a foretold

death and seeing this our protagonist thinks that in a way it's a more annoying trait than the time limit he finally responds to his father that he will not change his mind and that this is his choice meanwhile the young man tells himself that with his knowledge he can save this creature Theo on the other hand doesn't understand his son's decision and questions why he would make that choice the man assumes That Knox is probably projecting himself onto the horse and in the end his son is just an emotional weakling which is disappointing irritated the

patriarch simply says he hopes Knox doesn't regret that decision after saying that the man turns and begins to leave the area leaving Harts and Allen confused Knox seeing the scene can't believe his decision was truly disappointing to that extent Rodwell then approaches KNX and asks the boy to choose a name for his Horse the animal begins to lick its owner's hand while the white-haired boy wonders what name he should give his pet he finally chooses Cal and right after crouches down to pet the creature thinking that was the name he used when playing inner lunatic

amidst the sunset the boy states that this name was meaningful to him sometime later we see the horse lying in our protagonist's room the boy thinks that first he couldn't show others what he was going To do so he brought his horse to his room he starts staring at the animal thinking that it was time to do it analyzing the creature's eyes the young man realizes that the animal truly seemed determined to live and besides that they were practically the same and just like Knox the horse was also fighting to live shuely Knox reveals that

he knew Rona was spying through the door and asks the girl to respond immediately however she accidentally Opens the door and Falls hard onto the floor notifying her master that she was there the girl asks how the boy knew her location and he said says he caught her in the ACT he immediately tells Rona to take care of his horse and the girl is shocked to see the animal on the bed Rona gets irritated stating that in the end it will be her who has to clean everything up and our protagonist says that it is

a sick horse so R should do her best the poor animal starts lying Down slowly while Rona just agrees and says she'll take care of Cal Knox mentions that this is a bit problematic as what's about to happen will be a big shock at that moment our protagonist asks if Rona will really be able to handle what's about to happen 3 Days Later someone can be heard screaming from our Agonist room that person was Rona who was in tears because the horse she had cared for so much Cal had died looking at the girl KNX

thinks she was Crying because Cal had moved on to a better place remembering all the things the girl did for his horse he considers it understandable since she had put in a lot of effort to care for him in his mind the boy states that despite everything he already knew something like this would happen and recalling the poor animal the young man remarks that c couldn't be saved our protagonist walks up to Rona asking her to stop crying as she was distracting him however the girl Was still crying the white-haired boy asks his maid not

to worry as C would return to his side again hearing this Rona is completely confused and questions if something is wrong with the boy's head irritated but trying to stay calm he simply asks Rona to stand behind him the young man pulls a scroll from his coat and the girl asks what that is KNX ignores her and then throws the scroll which had a symbol engraved on it to the floor he crouches down and begins To inject Mana into the scroll which causes a magic circle and purple energy to appear from it Rona seeing this

is completely terrified not understanding anything seeing that it's working Knox gives a small satisfied smile on the other hand the maid questions how her young Master managed to use mana and the boy just thinks that he couldn't control it properly he states that if Rona continued to distract him C would die for the second time and this time it Would be her fault immediately she falls silent and our protagonist sharpens his gaze asserting that he needs to concentrate KNX comments that he has to do this because he hasn't yet awakened his genius trade for Mana

sensitivity and at that moment the magic circle begins to emit a purple Ora the boy explains that in this Empire it's forbidden to use Mana before the age of 15 unless you are a member of the Imperial family because of this the Imperial family's descendants are more experienced however the young man states that he would not give up as the only thing he could do at that moment was put as much Mana as possible into the scroll while trying to learn to control Mana he feels a faint energy in the palms of his hands and

realizing that it really is Mana the young man is extremely happy he states that it is interesting and right afterward he uses his one-time skill confirmation voucher still focusing on Controlling the Mana in his hands the boy mentions that he can't afford to make any mistakes because what he's about to use now is black magic at this moment the system informs that the onetime skill necrom Micron Book of the Dead has been obtained by Knox suddenly a skeletal hand appears holding a strange book that emits a purplish energy the boy begins to use it on

his course and the system informs that the target could be revived as Undead Finally the system asks if KNX would like to use that magic on the animal Knox explains that within inner lunatic there are two types of beings with the undead trait and the first type consists of creatures brought back with black magic the second type includes those brought back to life without an ego and who are born as stronger beings Knox comments that regardless of the type they also remain blindly loyal to their Master almost to an extreme degree However there was a

problem as there was only one family that revived courses Undead and that was Marvis the shadow family the boy notes that although the rean harbers are also a shadow family they are a family of knights Marvis however are Necromancer families in this case theoretically players who don't belong to the Marva family should be prevented from using this type of skill but the answer to this is no our protagonist explains that by using the One-time skill confirmation voucher he was allowed to obtain a Necronomicon and this Necronomicon was an item better known as The Book of

the Dead which allowed him to use the magic the Marva used at that moment several black hands begin to rise from the ground around the magic circle the hands start to surround Cal and the ritual proceeds they continue to wrap around the animal as if trying to take control suddenly our protagonist starts bleeding from his Mouth for some reason Ronan is desperate for her young Master however in the boy asks her to be quiet he continues to abute his Mana into the magic circle to complete the ritual as quickly as possible however once again he

spits blood as his Mana was nearly depleted but looking ahead he sees that K was fully reanimated with a strange Aura around him the horse appeared to be alive though somewhat different from before upon receiving the notification That the skill was successfully activated our protagonist is thrilled finally the ritual is completed and K is revived as an undead realizing that his plan had indeed worked KNX gives a big smile Rona who they've been in tears is completely confused by what happened and sadden since her young master was in a bad State however at protagonist simply

wipes the blood from his mouth and asks his horse to come to him the animal obeys and we see that unlike before the Area near his head now had a distinct glow upon opening his pet system Knox notices that the predicted death trait had been erased and all of Cal's qualities were active at that moment the young man touches Cal's head stating that he will be his master from now on before he could do anything Calla knocks sense an approach desperate Runa throws herself forward embracing both her master and the horse our protagonist is puzzled

and asks what the girl is doing However the maid begins to cry in distress she says she thought something bad had happened to her young master and wonders how he could use Mana so recklessly and how K was so careless however the horse treats the girl with disdain and she becomes extremely irritated by this at that moment she orders the horse to spit out the food she had given him and KNX Just Smiles at the scene he turns away thinking that the next thing he wanted to acquire was The hidden piece he skipped to a

few days later at the ran Harbor mansion on a full moon night for some reason Knox was running outside his house the boy was dressed in a cloak as if wanting to hide his identity for some reason uchan was holding a white crystal in one hand and a piece of paper in the other looking at the two objects he thought that compared to the game that path was not so different as he tucked a map into his bag he thought it was good since it Led to the second hidden piece of the ren Harbor family

it was an item he needed to obtain tame as it was the key to help him counter his negative trait time limit the boy walks slowly through the forest as he hears something that frightens him he promptly Gras his sword preparing for combat or whatever might come seeing that it was nothing he questions if he was worried for nothing however looking at a sign the boy states that this was no longer the game but Reality so he needed to be cautious we see that the sign was a warning stating that this forest was called Mia

and that if young children entered it could get lost and die finally Knox concludes that he absolutely did not want to die the system notifies that Knox has entered the forest of lost children and failure of this Mission will result in his death nevertheless without hesitation he steps into the area the narrator explains that the forest of Lost Children lies within Ran Harbor territory and has an entrance that is forbidden no matter how skilled the guides or Hunters are they would still have trouble finding their way out and it's a place that makes everyone feel

as lost as a child our protagonist notes that despite all the stories and Mysteries surrounding it the forest also holds a different significance because even if a fully grown adult kills a monster they will not gain any artifacts from it in other words adults Gain No Benefit from going there and when the person who goes there as an adult the difficulty of the monsters increases and in the game he had died several times there before finding the right way to complete the task that's why the difficulty of this forest was at least 2 and a

half Stars since the game's difficulty scaled with stars the boy also mentions that in truth when he played he tried hard to complete it even without knowing which items would appear And in reality he won a specific item the young man picks up a stick from the ground wrapping it with something flammable like a piece of cloth to make a torch quickly intelligently and shrewdly the boy lights it Illuminating the entire Forest but something begins to react strangely to the torch for some reason the torch's flame begins to move in a specific direction as if

guiding our protagonist to a certain place finally Knox concludes that the crucial Key to clearing the forest of lost children is the direction of the smoke as it's what guides the player to the correct location but to be more precise he explains that it's not enough to Simply follow the direction of the smoke as that's a trap instead he must go in the opposite direction H had starts to do something while thinking that before proceeding he wanted to take action as something had been bothering him since he entered the forest the boy as if he

Were going mad asks how long someone planned to hide and demands that this unknown person reveal themselves right then silence fills the forest and absolutely no one responds to Knox who becomes quite irritated by this after saying this the boy realizes that this unknown being will hide until the end of the mission and you would have to do something about it our protagonist draws his sword and immediately slashes in a nearby Bush to reveal the position of This person in a flashback we see a girl lamenting that her beauty had mored on KNX which left

her frustrated It's Finally Revealed that this girl is Talia who says she just can't get her head around it Emma who is next to her begs the girl to please stop following young Master knocks around the woman says that if the girl keeps doing that she will also get scolded along with her young mistress embarrassed Talia promises to make sure her maid won't be dismissed From the family and assures her that she need not worry about it at all back to the present at the Mansion the W begins to think that young lady talad is

talented enough for people to to respect her as the next matriarch well that is if young lady Chell weren't around and the woman wonders why Talia feels inferior to her own sister and is being so impatient as she heads to her young mistress's room the maid concludes that Talia has likely given up on chasing Knox and is now sleeping however upon entering the girl's room she notices that it is completely empty Emma immediately realizes that the young lady is missing and begins to panic trembling she can't believe that Talia actually went to meet young Master

Knox and so commotion ensues at the Mansion back in a forest of children we see that the bush that had been slashed is destroyed revealing that Talia was hiding in it our protagonists can't believe that the Girl was actually there the girl tries to act naturally while Knox asks what she's doing Talia is about to explain but that moment uchan notices something behind the bush he quickly pulls the girl close to him by her waist and immediately points the torch in that direction suddenly two sharp Furry Paws emerge from the forest's darkness we see that

it's a giant gray wolf ready to attack the two of them the redhead seeing the scene can't believe that this Forest is actually gray wolf territory and states that she only has a dagger to protect herself Knox holds the Girl by the waist as he Shields her from the wolf circling them the creature prepares to do something but changes its mind and then starts howling to call others Knox and Talia remain stunned merely watching the scene in the Moonlight the wolf opens its jaws to strike however KNX gives a small smirk and releases Talia advancing

toward the monster the young Man drops his torch and attacks the wolf with his bare hands in the blink of an eye the creature's neck is twisted and it falls lifeless Talia merely watches witnessing the poor animal collaps with its body already lifeless on the ground the girl is impressed as even though it was a wolf Knox managed to defeat it so cleanly looking ahead she sees that the boy's body is stained with blood irritated KNX says he thought it was his brother following him but was mistaken And for that reason he asked once more

what Talia is doing there embarrassed she begins playing with her hair merely saying it was a nighttime stroll retrieving his torch our protagonist tells Talia not to mess with him as if she does he'll leave her there alone immediately looking and she prepares to say something as she grabs KNX a hand she starts babbling a bunch of nonsense but in summary she just says she found it strange that the boy suddenly became So strong which is why she wanted to follow him nox gives a slight smile while thinking that he's now certain of three things

Talia thinks highly of him she's not hostile in any way and lastly she's just a kid who doesn't understand how dangerous it is to follow others late at night for that reason he comments that since she's one of the main characters he couldn't just leave her there so he asks her to follow him however the young man makes it clear That in this case there's one thing she must understand and coldly he states that he's not trying to help her he's merely trying to resolve the situation so it doesn't affect his family in any way

realizing she made a mistake the girl simply apologizes for having been wrong our protagonist figures that this way Talia probably won't do anything dangerous again still timidly the girl calls Knox and then sweetly thanks him he's left speechless for a moment and The girl was about to say something more when she notices something ahead of them due to the last Wolf's howl a pack of wolves appears ready to Devour the two kids who are now in trouble eliminating with his torch our protagonist sees several wolves in front of him surrounding and cornering him because of

the wolf pack Talia begins to tremble and hides behind Knox the young man on the other hand tells her to move away from him immediately and in a commanding Tone he states that Talia will get in his way when he uses his sword so she needs to stand back the young man thinks that despite the unexpected variables he needs to focus again and get back to his objective he comments that this is before the start of the game's events so there probably won't be any boss but an elite monster a lower level one will appear

instead an evolved form of the gry wolf he just killed the elite gry wolf however even though he knows his Enemy that doesn't mean things will go well two wolves from the pack charge at our protagonist without hesitation and he slices through them in the blink of an eye Knox comments that there are times when everyone must realize they're possibly cornered our protagonist stares at the wolf pack understanding that this time he's cornered but it's still not the end more wolves Advance on Knox to finish things once and for all the young man says he'll

repeat what he always Said back when he played inner lunatic when he was still you and that thing was that he was a danam weakland who never gave up so at that moment he swings his sword slashing the Wolves still in midair seeing this Talia thinks it's incredible and she's certain that Knox hasn't shown his full power yet as his swordsmanship technique is even more impressive the girl even wonders if Knox had killed a grey wolf before since he seems so familiar with It however she remembers Knox asking her to step back and this makes

her thoughtful Talia believes that Knox probably still thinks she's too weak however before she can dwell on it further something startles her and Knox notices it too looking up at the sky the young man states that has finally arrived we see jar Paul is approaching the battle scene between Knox and the other wolves the elite gry wolves have finally come to put an end to the fight Meanwhile outside several people are searching for Talia Knox who have apparently disappeared one of the servants looking for Knox finds some tracks near the forest of lost children and

is certain they're the young masters and Tal's Footprints the butler becomes very concerned realizing that his young Master likely entered the forest of lost children and upon hearing that Talia may have gone with him Emma becomes completely desperate she asks what They're going to do insisting that they should enter the forest now however Rodell tells her not to be foolish as that would be impossible the girl questions Rodwell wondering why they're just standing there instead of helping their children hearing this the butler reflects that it's a forest that even the ran Harbors haven't been able

to clear yet in summary Rodell explains that there's a reason why even with their strength they haven't been able to Clear the forest only children can accomplish that with all this he's left puzzled wondering why the young Master would enter the forest he comments that he doesn't think the young man was under the influence of any mind controller is judging by the tracks you definitely moved with caution the butler also thinks that there's no trace of anyone breaching the strongest man of barrier of the property this meant that young Master Knox entered the forest of

his Own accord finally irritated the butler admits he was wrong and can no longer deny that this is not the same weak and fragile young Master as before he tells Emma that there's only one way for the two to return safely he mentions that the young Master will have to use his wisdom and find a way out of the forest Emma in tears merely looks for the forest hoping this will happen all the servants stop searching and simply wait for a miracle to occur however the maid Without hopes is that she was to blame for

Miss Tal's death back to the kids fight Talia draws her dagger for combat and Knox thinks that she still hasn't lost her Focus despite being scared then he tells the girl not to do anything unnecessary as she could get hurt and she should just stay out of it finally he orders Talia to save her strength to run if attacked that way she'll have a slightly better chance of surviving but thinking more about it he says that in Fact killing an elite wolf isn't that dangerous as it's only two two and a half stars in the

end he just wants Talia to stay alert and react to her surroundings looking at her he notes that she seems to have learned well though she's not yet the level where he can rely on her to cover him looking ahead he states that for now he'll do what he can to win this fight he activates his skill genius time and remarks that he'll use this skill to Kill all the Wolves at once however one of the creatures seems to remain in real time which startles Knox with his skill activated he can't believe that wolf truly

is different from the others one of the creatures then lunges at Knox to try and kill him but with his new skilled he quickly counters and ends the wolf's life the others immediately stop and begin to tremble in fear which leaves Knox extremely puzzled the leader of the elite wolf pack seems to just Stand there watching the fight with excitement finally the other wolves snap out of their Frozen State and charge at knocks together with great skill he manages to slice the first one and two one of the Wolves behind him rushes to attack and

catches him offg guard the young man tries to turn around but before he can react the wolf is struck by talia's dagger looking to the side knock tal up in a tree telling him to be careful and he's thrilled by this as she Does this the girl thinks that although Knox told her to run if things got dangerous she couldn't bring herself to do it seeing Talia step in to help he feels impressed and even proud after saving our protagonist the girl asks Knox if he's all right she also asks if he's injured anywhere seeing

this our protagonists can hardly believe that the girl truly helped him even after he underestimated her but before he can think much about it more wolves attack But he manages to F them off and cut them down after finishing off those wolves the boy is left somewhat out of breath he then tells Talia that he's fine while thinking that now isn't the time to let his guard down the redhead on the other hand is glad that Knox wasn't hurt looking ahead at his enemy KNX thinks that he showed his pathetic side to the girl and

it's terrible looking at his hands and seeing them tremble he realizes that his skill's Decline has already set in and worst of all this still isn't over then the alpha wolf leading the pack Rises to join the fight at least Knox feels relieved that the creature is finally stepping up the wolf starts circling our protagonist while staring him down the two opponents gaze at each other other recognizing each other's strength the creature finally prepares and then rushes toward Knox surprised the boy braces himself to defend against his opponent's attack However for some reason the creature

dashes past him without paying him any attention our protagonist is baffled by what that wretched Beast is doing until he finally realizes at that moment the creature appears behind him and before Knox can defend himself he's struck by the wolf's claws the creature manages to slash his arm wounding him and Talia seeing this screams in concern the wolf then Retreats back into the forest to lend in and hide among the bushes our Protagonist is extremely irritated as he tries to stop the bleeding from his new wound frustrated he questions whether that animal really was just

two and a half Stars he also mutters that the game developers need to revise that as this wolf is far too strong not knowing the wolf's exact location as it hides in the bushes Knox realizes that this Elite gray wolf is much more cunning and shrew than in the game the young man grips his sword waiting for another attack from The creature noting that it had caught him off guard he reflects that he should have realized soon Er When the wolf controlled the others imagining that the monster could also take advantage of the terrain and

his geographical benefits at that moment the creature emerges from a bush and charges toward Knox for another attack this time however he's prepared to defend himself and says he needs to keep his guard up he manages to react in Counterattack ling a solid blow on the Wolf the creature impacted by the attack is thrown back a few meters however Knox realizes that the monster isn't planning on retreating our protagonist immediately senses that the monster was already waiting for him to make a big move and leave an opening at that moment he begins to sweat realizing

he's let his guard down his skills decline kicks in and being cunning the wolf seizes this opportunity charging at him with its fangs bared as he sees everything in Slow motion the boy acknowledges that he didn't foresee this outcome and wonders if he got over excited because he beaten that game multiple times desperate for his life he realizes it was foolish to think he could easily achieve everything he wanted in this world racing himself for the worst KNX closes his eyes awaiting his fate however he hears the wolf's growl as if they had been attacked

it's revealed that t is his dagger has struck the creature squarely In the eye seeing this opportunity noox realizes that her weapon created an opening allowing him to defeat the wolf now he can't believe that the person who created that unexpected variable wasn't himself without hesitation he tightens his grip on his sword and charges at the monster with a precise strike to end the creature he stabs the wolf in its belly with both blows the creature Wars in pain unable to respond after that the monster's body falls lifeless to the Ground injured knocks crouches trembling

from all the action he just stares at the huge creatures body body Breathing heavily Talia immediately calls out to Knox but then notices something she sees that there are still other Elite wolves nearby but they immediately flee after seeing their leader defeated without hesitation Talia climbs down to check on our protagonist and asks if he's all right but the boy replies that he's fine Knox prepares to thank the girl but for Some reason hesitates Talia on the other hand has tears streaming down her cheeks and Knox can't believe he almost thank the enemy who will

kill him in the future he then tells her not to worry about him because he's all right but with tears of frustration she yells that Knox just got hurt and questions if he's really okay as he stands and takes the torch from Tal's hand he responds that it was just a scratch and that he's fine then stopping her tears and smiling the Girl says she's glad Knox isn't hurt anywhere else suddenly spider descends from the tree and lands on talia's shoulder noticing this the girl is completely shocked as if witnessing the most terrifying sight of

her life Knox unaware turns around in concern wondering if another monster has appeared the girl throws herself into our protagonist's arms seeking rescue from him the white-haired boy boy questions what's happening and why the Girl acted so suddenly while Hing knocks Talia tries to explain that there was a spider on her shoulder looking at the creature she becomes even more frightened desperate Talia starts shaking Knox who is completely confused wondering how long the girl will cling to him our protagonist gives a small smile realizing that Talia probably has a fear of spiders which explains her

reaction he removes the insect from talia's shoulder and then says that if a Little spider scared her he questions why on Earth she followed him into the forest the girl justifies it by saying that spider are terrifying and asks if he doesn't feel the same as a joke the white-haired boy remarks that if she keeps acting like that she won't be able to become a knight hearing this the gro gets irritated and lets go of Knox who celebrates being freed however due to his skills decline he starts coughing concerned Talia asks if he's all right

And wonders what's going on but coldly Knox replies that she shouldn't worry about it looking at the girl he feels genuinely proud acknowledging that Talia really did her part and helped him and smiling he thinks to himself that he survived thanks to her and couldn't say it before because she screams suddenly although he silently thanks Talia she unable to hear it just asks if he's really okay clearly worried as the sun begins to rise KNX says that now there's Only one thing left to do leave the forest we see something shadowy close to the elite

Wolf's body Dawn is Breaking at the two young people hav left the forest Emma desperate and in tears claims that it's her fault Miss Talia is dead Rodwell having lost hope states that the two likely didn't make it and talia's disappearance would create a problem between the two families he mentions that because many children from the area dis appear in the forest some Secretly claim the rein Harvard family is incompetent at that moment one of the other Butlers ask Mr Rodwell to look in a certain direction they all see that the forest's Mist is beginning

to disperse Emma is surprised by this and Rodwell immediately realizes that the forest of lost children has been cleared the maid uncertain asks if the rising Mana means that and Rodwell confirms she's correct the butler comments that it signifies the forest has been cleared Meaning their one remaining hope has become reality Emma immediately understand that this means young Master not has conquered the forest everyone then sees our protagonist emerging from the forest alongside his friend Talia one of them Butlers announces to everyone that the young Master is finally coming out they start murmuring astonished that

the young Master actually cleared the forest and was walking out as if nothing had happened Rodell breaks into a smile stating that he can't help but feel proud at that moment he's certain that the hierarchy among the ren Harbor family's descendants is about to be shaken up significantly confused Knox asks why all the Butlers and servants are gathered there but Emma immediately calls out to her Young young lady she Embraces Talia and tells her she was worried and Rodwell clarifies that the family was also concerned about the young Master's Disappearance in his cold manner the

white-haired boy responds that he doubts they were worried about someone as useless as him and his family's reputation was faltering after a moment of relief and joy Emma becomes frustrated and says she'll repeat all 71 family rules to her young lady once again knowing she was wrong Talia tries to play innocent and apologizes to her maid but visibly Furious the woman replies that she won't scold her but the Patriarchs will personally teach her the rules watching Emma and recalling Rona the boy comments that it seems this servant also has extraordinary stamina at that moment the

maid thank sh Knox for protecting her lady Talia also apologizes explaining that she hadn't truly intended to accompany him into the forest in a rare moment of kindness Knox replies that she managed on her own and shouldn't blame herself too much hearing this Talia feels extremely proud but Remains silent for a moment sometime later we see our protagonist dumping his things onto an armchair while taking off his dirty clothes he celebrates that finally for now it's all over even so Knox is irritated as he can't believe Rodwell was waiting outside the forest with the Knights

which was completely unexpected as he pulls something from his pocket he mentions that despite everything his mission was worth it it was the hidden piece he so desired a Ring-like artifact called the black flame ring a system displays the Ring's details showing that its attribute is darkness and it grants the wearer an additional point of stamina and Mana however the narrator explains that the ring has an effect where upon defeating someone a small portion of the target's life energy is transferred to the artifact Bearer examining the ring KNX reflects that the only artifact capable of

stealing someone's life force is this Black flame ring even so just possessing the ring doesn't mean he'll live longer Knox notes that a person's life can't be extended infinitely and considering that only a small amount is absorbed it won't exceed his time limit but putting on the ring he says that as long as he can fight and progress it's much better than hopeless life on the brink of death looking at his new artifact the boy says he can feel his vitality and Mana increasing he then immediately calls Calls Rona stating that he knows she's outside

so she should come in the girl gently opens the door and asks if by any chance our protagonist can see through walls the boy replies that maybe he can and the girl becomes extremely flustered upon hearing this and then asks if he can see her body too completely Furious Knox gives Rona a solid flick on the head and demands to know what she's talking about she starts complaining saying it hurts much more when her Master is annoyed for some reason our protagonist challenges Rona to an arm wrestling match and the girl asks if she really

has to do that again she asks SI if she wins this time her salary will actually be raised and Knox replies yes however if she loses her salary will be reduced by 20% the two clasp hands and prepare for the match the countdown begins and for some reason Knox seems extremely confident at the final count in the blink of an eye our protagonist Slams her hand down on the table completely frustrated and with her plans ruined the girl asks what just happened outraged she says Knox knows it's unfit for a respectable family member to reduce

his servants meager salary by 20% the boy agrees however he adds that according to rumors he's the worthless one in the ran Harbor family and with a sweet smile he says that's why he's decided not to care about trivial things like honor desperate Rona tries to Apologize suddenly something happens to Knox that leaves him completely dizzy and trembling the system notifies that the effect of his constant ailment trait has been activated and nox has received a rist fracture he's extremely annoyed by his traits as an act of kindness he says he'll cancel rona's salary reduction

but in return he wants her to bring him some ice and a damp towel seeing that he's unwell he remarks that for now he'll be satisfied with just one Ring and needs to rest a bit like a lost memory we see Knox in the future affirming that he's certain of his true name yuchan a little later we see Knox recapping that he obtained two hidden pieces 6 months ago K and the black flame ring but unfortunately he still hasn't had a chance to use them in his room a sign reads that he's grounded due to

this punishment the boy sigh in frustration he says it's not as if he caused trouble since he even cleared the Forest of lost children and he can't believe he was given a punishment instead of a reward extremely Furious he asks if Rona agrees with him the girl replies that she does but as a servant of the family her salary would be dock if she spoke ill of the patriarch Knox vent his anger on Rona saying that if she doesn't act the way he wants he'll cut her salary the girl immediately start saying that the patriarch

was very strict and you should understand how Knox felt and at that moment the young man just sits down in his armchair he thinks that he has been trying hard to adapt and to have a productive life while observing Kyle's progress however he couldn't go on like this as his life was ending at that moment the system notifies that the remaining life for Knox is 147 days the boy gets irritated and mentions that the system cared more about his life and he did himself tired he says he couldn't take it anymore and Needed to go

to his father to get permission to leave somehow however Rona says he shouldn't go as she had just heated the water for his bath but at that moment someone knocks on the door we see that it was Rodwell who was informing Knox that the patriarch was summoning him the boy seems quite surprised by this sudden appearance in a flashback it's possible to see hundreds of bodies after what appears to be a war among that sea of bodies and death was Theo wielding his sword the man stood before several creatures that won him dead while the

narrator explains that it was the night of the massacre the Demonic creatures merely hovered over Theo to kill him together they charged at knox's father to end a man's life however he held his swords in his hands and they were emitting a dark energy Theo with ease managed to kill all those creatures in the blink of an eye with his sword imbued with dark energy there Revealed that all of that was a memory of the young man sitting in his chair he also thinks about the swarm of demons that was there the humans who were

taken by them and that the night of the massacre was something Dreadful and a disaster the young man starts to wake up and suddenly a dark mass of energy emerges from his body Theo mentions that someday one of his children will probably receive the tyrant's blade of darkness and he couldn't trust Probabilities he needed a talent that was certain because one of them would have to kill him in the future as that was the family Tradition at that moment R arrives at the location saying that the young Master would arrive soon but Theo was annoying

that he was late the man asked his Butler to bring knocks while thinking that the Forest of Lost Children was a place even he didn't know how to clear Theo also mentions that he couldn't imagine that his son had Accomplished such a feat and in fact it would be logical to reward him however the reason for the delay was due to objections from the family vassals who didn't believe Knox had changed and began an investigation to verify if he had indeed cleared the forest the man states that even he couldn't ignore the opinions of his

family's vassals so the investigation was a necessary process at that moment Knox interrupts him introducing himself and paying his Respects to family Patriarchs the Young young man immediately asks the boy to stop bowing and stand up and so he does ran Harbor says he is sure his son already knows that his actions were wrong and the boy agrees however he says his job as patriarch is to give credit when it is due even if to an unworthy person and he summoned Knox to discuss his reward then leaving Knox extremely surprised the patriarch states he will

grant the boy a request he explains that He will fulfill just one wish of the young man no matter what it is hearing this our protagonist is incredulous not believing he could have whatever he wanted our protagonist me that even he who played inner lunatic all the time was seeing Theo give a reward for the first time the young man comments that this person was usually authoritarian and strict and it felt like someone had just shot him in the head finally he utters a word from his mouth and asks if He could really have anything

Theo though thoughtful says you will grant his son anything he asks for the young man begins a speech saying that as the patriarch of the ran Harbor family he promises to Grant Knox anything and sweers by the long history of his blade of darkness in his mind Knox notes that he didn't think this person was serious but apparently he was knox's father finally says that if the boy's request is ridiculous his evaluation of him will Change but he trusted the young man wouldn't do something foolish Knox agrees and then immediately asks for some time to

think about it his father simply says that it's all right and that he'll allow the boy to leave the property from that day on but he no longer has permission to get into trouble as before and even with that Cavit Knox feels happy to be free and just thanks his father however before the boy leaves his father says that Knox Must always remember that he belongs to the reinh harbor family the next day we see a few few people gathered and Talia is dressed in beautiful attire the girl sadly says that the next time she'll

see Knox will be at Elden Academy the young man acts with disdain and just looks at the girl saying nothing still she remains persistent and asks Knox if they could see each other one more time yet the boy remains silent R schols are protagonists and insists that the boy Should respond when a young lady asks him something and the young man agrees kindly KNX says that this will only happen if the girl becomes a full-fledged Knight before then motivating her seeing this the girl becomes extremely excited further fueling her desire to become a knight the

boy also mentions that the first step for that to happen is for Talia to not get so scared after seeing a giant spider but upon hearing that she becomes Extremely shy and embarrassed in response the young woman punches KNX Square in the gut causing the boy to spit up a bit of blood in his mind the protagonist notes that his remark should have been about wolves not spiders since the girl was ashamed of her fear still before leaving Talia says that anyway she'll return after becoming a full-fledged Knight and KNX should prepare himself hearing this

the boy is shocked wondering if that girl intended To kill him at that moment Emma thanks the boy's family for everything especially Master Knox but he questions why he's receiving such thanks the maid says she's thanking him again for saving young Miss Talia sighing deeply the boy with white hair simply responds that it's not as if he did it because he wanted to finally he asks to be left alone and for the girls to leave and they do so boarding the carriage and departing our protagonist just watches The carriage as he thinks that someone has

left in that moment yet still he feels that he has slowly gotten used to this strange life Knox also thinks he doesn't know the exact reason but he's actually enjoying it and once again the system notifies him that he has 146 days left to live reading that the boy comments to himself that he doesn't have time to rest and needs to take action a few days later we see Rona telling Knox that he needs to find a new maid or Servant upon hearing that the boy becomes thoughtful saying that thinking about it it's really a

good idea however at that moment Rodwell arrives greeting his young master and the boy asks what his servant wants the butler explains that Elden Academy had sent a trainee servant to assist the boy and that from that day on she would be serving him the young woman with green hair greets Knox and says that from now on she'll be the exclusive made of our protagonist Introducing herself our protagonist then even while acting disdainfully introduces himself back thinking about the name gitri delilia he remembers this girl and becomes thoughtful KNX activates his system and begins analyzing

all the girl's information to discover more about her and upon a deep analysis he realizes that the girl was actually there to monitor KNX based on orders from Thea ran Harbor a bit before that situation and on the same day once Again a system gives a notification about knox's remaining lifespan and this time only 140 days Remain the young man thinks that when you're time is limited it seems to pass far too quickly even so the only positive thing in this was that he was indeed evolving very quickly despite having this severe penalty looking at

the wind carrying flowers on his balcony the young man notes that he too will soon be admitted to Elden Academy Runner arrives there and says That in 2 months our protagonist will begin attending Elden Academy and asks if he's feeling nervous the boy asks if Rona is so happy happy because she'll get rid of him when he's at the Academy and the girl gets flustered she begins to cry and says that in fact she's already even starting to miss Knox our protagonist is that he won't lower her salary so she can stop exaggerating he thinks

that within the next few months if his stats don't improve even a little He clearly won't survive within the academy the young man explains that Elden is the best Academy in the Empire as where the most monstrous cadit from the entire country gather after surviving that place and the main plot begins he will have to take on the role of the villain Knox Von ran Harbor think about this the boy lumens as everything has been so difficult for him we then returned to the moment when our protagonist was analyzing the Information about that girl shamelessly

jit says that she will do her best to support Knox and the boy thinks that he knew they wouldn't let him leave that place freely hence why jit was there the narrator begins to explain that theovon reinh Harbor is one of the greatest villains and one of the strongest beings in that world many ask if he rose to his current position solely because of his swordsmanship however the main reason theat was able to secure his place as The master of the family was because he always suspected everyone and everything around him and was extremely cautious

we then see the moment when the man tells the main that he has great expectations of her at that moment the girl with green hair promptly responds that she will follow her master's orders Theo says that he heard the girl had fallen behind in the family's line of succession and if she performed her Mission correctly the ran Harbor family Would support her in that regard the maid then says she will help young Master Knox with all her sincerity but Theo asks her not to do so the man begins to admit a crushing pressure that leaves

the maid completely confused she then promptly changes her words and says she will monitor the boy closely and report everything that happens to her Lord gitri finally leaves that room while remembering her master's words the young woman was somewhat breathless from The whole situation she reveals a necklace with something in a pendant that was under her blouse looking at it the young woman begins to say that from that point forward she couldn't afford to slip up anymore that we see that the pendant actually contains a photo of jit's family sometime later Nike finally Falls and

our protagonist is already lying in his bed the boy is immersed in his thoughts still thinking about the spy who was watching him he comments That his father probably wanted to confirm whether he was truly Knox or not since demonic possession was something that happened frequently in inner lunatic and Knox was a character whose body was taken over by demon number one in the game finally the boy states that as long as his father doesn't Discover who he truly is everything is fine but actually the only problem was jiter our protagonist notes that as long

as the girl isn't involved in the main story it Would be a waste to discard her he explains that originally gitri was meant to become the head of the Lilia family but her parents were killed by her uncle and she lost her position as the next head what happened after was obvious and in the end she became a servant for the ran Harbor family and she managed to escape from her family outwardly it might seem that she was always smiling and cheerful but inside gitri was already tired Hollow and on the verge of Breaking so

her final decision before the first part of the main plot of the story began was to take her own life ending all her pain confused our protagonist begins to wonder what he should do about that situation since he didn't know if it was the right decision to change the story's plot and save a person who was meant to die after all if he did that it would be like putting a noose around his own neck the next day we see Knox talking to his two Maids the Boy says that from that day forward he will

hunt monsters within the territory's forest and in addition his two Maids will go with him to assist him but Rona seems uneasy about it the girl begins to feel frightened as she didn't want to even think about the possibility of hunting monsters within the territory on the other hand gitri promptly agrees without actually showing any reaction to that event Rona then asks her friend not to Simply agree with everything but the Girl seems somewhat embarrassed KNX thinks it's normal for a maid to be afraid of hunting monsters as after all that request was absurd but

even so gitri responded very quickly and agreed to it and we see that in reality the young woman was trembling with fear Knox then tells Rona that he already knew she'd use all her leaves to skip work therefore he states that she wouldn't be allowed to take leave that day and the girl becomes completely irritated the Little white-haired demon begins to exert pressure saying that he was a useless person and therefore if Rona didn't obey him he cut her salary in half resigned to the situation Rona asks if her master wanted her to bring a

bow or a sword our protagonist seeing that the girl promptly agreed just gives a small smile however jitu calls out to him the young woman asks if she could inform Lord Rodwell that Knox would be leaving the property before beginning to Prepare the boy just nods thinking that for now his priority will be to increase the remaining time of his life without hesitation the three of them set off on Horseback toward the edges of the forest to be in the hunt watching this scene through a window was Theo who's keeping an eye on un knocks

every move a few days later in the forest of Lost Children which now seemed normal after being cleared our protagonist's group was gathered we see a giant white furred Wolf rising to attack someone Knox without hesitation charges at the creature to end it using his Mastery of swordsmanship with just one strike he finishes off the monster and steals a small amount of the wolf's life force slightly increasing his lifespan we didn't see that Knox had already managed to gain two extra hours of life and was completely exhausted after analyzing for a moment he wonders if

he had already killed all wolves in that area our Protagonist notes that since he gained two hours of life with that hunt alone he could consider it almost a success his maid who was carrying water for her Lord says it had already been an hour since he started hunting and asks if Knox wasn't tired the boy on the other hand seems irritated by something which leaves the maid confused Knox then thinks that his hunt took much longer than he had imagined as he hadn't activated genius mode in other words he Had only gained 1 hour

and he knew the calculations wouldn't be balanced but it was unfair and it wasn't like he could do it Con instantly upon closer analysis Knox notes that his main concern was The Limited number of monsters in that region moreover he had already killed most of these creatures as he had been hunting for a few days and at that rate his plan for a good life would end up going down the drain Knox tells the maid that not having as many monsters nearby Anymore was also a huge problem jitu responds that she couldn't believe Knox considered

that a problem as if others heard what he was saying they would call him crazy looking to the side our protagonist notices the sun's setting he tells us maiz that there's no other option and for now they should return to the mansion the girl asks if she should heat the water for knox's bath mentioning she'll set it to a pleasant temperature for her master Knox remarks In his mind that such attentiveness was truly expected of a hygiene assistant and then he says he'd like to Bath it before dinner the young woman with a smile on

her face promptly responds that she'll take care of everything Rona irritated and jealous asks not to be forgotten and said as she'll clean knox's room but the boy just replies that she can do whatever she wants the girl quickly gathers her hunting gear and prepares to leave still envious of The treatment her friend was receiving the boy then calls for his maid jiter who promptly responds asking what he wants our protagonist merely says he has a question specifically for the girl at coldly he asks who jri serves hearing this the young woman for some reason

becomes extremely worried remembering jit's genius assistant trait the boy says that no matter how beautiful and Grand a sword is it's useless if he can't wield it in other words if he Couldn't use his maid he wouldn't hesitate to discard her at this moment jry begins to stumble over her words seeing that the girl wasn't saying anything KNX assumes that this was her answer nervous the girl starts to sweat coldly saying she hadn't answered yet she begins to speak but our protagonist interrupts her saying he already understood what she meant then he comments that jry

need worry as he wouldn't question her anymore and in Fact he even thanks her as she hadn't lied at any moment nox then says that it doesn't matter whom jit serves for he would treat her as one of his own the girl seeing her foundation crumbling is left in shock unable to respond to anything the young man walks past his maid and says that if she ever needed it she could also use him and that was all he wanted to say as he walks away our protagonist thinks that compared to having Mutual trust it would

be enough If they simply used each other after all that's already the kind of relationship he has with the girl a little later KN Falls over the Mansion Rona is telling her colleague that her young Master Knox is very cruel as she eats some sweets the girl mentions that this little demon always makes fun of her and is far too abusive with a smile on her face jry simply agrees with her friend not wanting to interrupt in her mind the girl comments that she had already heard Rumors that young Master Knox had changed since she

was still with the vilia family and actually she thought it was all made up as it's rare for someone to change so drastically but they said he defeated the twins with a single strike and earned the right to attend the academy furthermore Knox also managed to solidify his position within the family completely different from her who despite being a legitimate successor had experienced a terrible downfall in Her life looking at the photo of her parents the girl begins to remember what Knox had said to her confused she wonders what the boy meant when he said

she could use him a little later an unfounded rumor began to spread within Ryan Harbor this r claimed that jit had been expelled from her family and that she no longer deserved to serve in the Ryan Harbor family for some reason the girl received a letter addressed to her when she started reading it was written That she the incompetent successor who had sold out her family would be held accountable for her sins additionally jit would be deprived of All rights she held as a direct descendant with despair In Her Eyes the girl thinks that it

also seems she couldn't stay in rein Harbor for much longer and in fact she had expected this after all among the shadow families re Harbor is one of the greatest but even if she was being used as a servant for a useless person she Was a commoner who had lost her family and didn't have the right to serve him walking through the Halls the girl thinks that she will soon be dismissed or else serve someone else at that moment she arrives at the place where all her friends were working and says hello to them seeing

everyone's reaction jit realizes that probably everyone has already heard about the rumors and facing those expressions she states that she was already accustomed to that Disdainful look however suddenly Rona approaches calling for her friend and saying she looked for her everywhere in her mind gitri wonders if her friend wasn't aware of rumors yet but at that moment Rona takes the girl's hand the green-haired girl starts to wonder if Rona was mocking her or if she truly considered her a friend and either way Rona was being quite foolish at that moment then we see that for

some reason the maid was pulling jiter somewhere Finally the green-haired girl thinks that she young Master Knox and R were all being foolish at that moment sitting in his armchair looking out his balcony our protagonist thinks that the end was very near he notes that besides jit his father had probably also received the letter and he knew the crimes where father was accused were all completely fabricated but he also knew that unfortunately he was unable to help the girl because if he helped gitri survive There was no way of knowing what kind of butterfly effect

would result on another day in the forest of lost children we see a wolf being cut down after wounding that creature Knox calmly walks off in search of his next Target and while watching this Rona asks jit if she doesn't think the young Master seemed a bit aggressive that day hidden beside her friend behind a bush the maid also mentions that her master used to be a bit more merciful in the past but but That day seemed a bit strange and hearing this jigu becomes puzzled by it watching the scene the girl reports that knox's

behavior is making her feel uneasy the boy continues his sword stained with blood in pursuit of more wolves to finish off confused he says that it should already be time for that being to appear and wonders if that monster won't come out that day either our protagonist explains that in the forest of Lost Children there is a Creature that peers randomly when only 20% of the monsters Remain the hidden boss he had been thinking about killing this monster as he thought it might help him increase his stats however it didn't seem like it would work

out suddenly our protagonist begins to feel a crushing pressure out of nowhere a shadow rushes past him leaving him wondering what it was a creature flies by his side and seeing it the boy realizes that its speed was on an entirely different level Analyzing further he concludes that a hidden boss was indeed worthy of such power so the young man turns around happy KNX celebrates seeing that the elite was King had really appeared and that it would pose a challenge however he notes that it's not as if this monster was on a level that he

couldn't kill and so a battle begins suddenly someone calls out to the young master and gitri steps in front of the boy to protect him from the wasp's attack Staying the scene and his maid being attacked our protagonist thinks that even if gitri hadn't helped him it was an attack he could have blocked however he wonders why the girl tried to help him confused he questions how many people would be capable of running toward a monster that appeared suddenly to save someone they cared about that angered by seeing his servant being attacked the young man

declares that he too will have to use his abilities to Save her at that moment he grips his sword tightly and and immediately activates the genius mode skill in a flashback we see gitri lying on the ground with her parents wondering why she always seemed to fall and cry Lilia remarks that it was what her parents always said to her that her wounds never fully healed however this didn't apply only to the wounds on her knees but also to hearts and she wondered if from the beginning they had already foreseen Everything with this the girl

recalls the moment Knox asked her whom she served this leaves jit utterly confused uncertain of the real answer to that question in her thoughts she remembers the moment her uncle killed her family and claim that the family now belonged to him the girl continues to wonder whom she should serve as all of our protagonists words flash through her mind at this moment the boy was worried about his maid after defeating the Monster desperate he asks the young woman to hold on just a bit longer and assures her that everything would be fine he states that

it was all over now and that he would take her back to be treated looking at knox's expression the girl thinks that the young man was lying and that in truth he never intended to use her nearly blacking out from her injuries she begins to question why was his voice so shaky and angry then at that moment she closed her eyes in the Patriarch's office reading a letter Theo confirms that it was indeed a problem robell says that based on his investigation the contents of the letter were genuinely true and that the Lilia family had

decided to disown Miss jit for good Theo remarks to himself that the reason he brought JRE there to begin with was to take over her family given that they had lost the previous leaders and were unstable he imagined this would be the perfect opportunity to seize Control as the internal situation within the family was so unbalanced that the successor's position was uncertain certain so if Aran Harbors got involved in some way they could subdue that family however Theo wonders what will happen now that jit was expelled from the family before he could execute any plan

finally he tells his Butler that he has no choice in questions what they should do about the girl Rodwell asserts that although it's unfortunate if they Keep a maid who doesn't belong to a family by Young Master knocks aside they would be looked down upon by Elden Academy and the solution would be to handle this discreetly to which theorey agrees suddenly someone bursts into the room calling for his Lord and Rodwell questions why the man entered without permission he apologizes but reports that young Master Knox had arrived carrying a maid who was injured during his

hunt the man explains that the girl Was poisoned and was in critical condition and that Knox used an extremely expensive antidote without permission which is why he was there to report it the butler surprised asks his subordinate if Knox truly used the purifying mandre potion and the man regretfully confirms Rodwell remarks that it was extremely costly and Theo wonders aloud if Knox had become so attached to that M so quickly in his mind knox's father remarked that no one Knows what result could come from a personal feeling like that at that moment in the Mansion

Rona is frantically shouting asking if jit is awake seeing her friend open her eyes she starts crying and shedding tears the green-haired girl is very confused wondering what is happening and if Master Knox is safe she remembers the moment she sacrificed herself to protect him and wonders why she did that at the time Rona then explains to her colleague That the young Master had given her a very expensive antidote though she forgets the name of the potion the maid explains that our protagonist threatened the doctor even though he didn't want to give the potion to

jit and that Knox had completely ignored everything else in fact she thinks that kinds side of Knox still exists and hearing this jit wonders why Knox did that jit tries to sit up but Rona urges her to rest more as her wounds are still critical but Undeterred the maid asks where Knox is Rona informs her that he went to find the housekeeper and that she should let him know when gitri woke up then she leaves the room asking gitri to stay lying down promising to return soon ignoring the orders gitri stands up and goes to

one of her bags she starts packing her things to leave affirming that she shouldn't be there the truth was she felt she didn't belong anywhere and didn't deserve anything feeling Completely isolated she opens the locket on her necklace to look at the photograph of her parents and then removes the picture the girl leaves the locket beside a letter informing her young master that the necklace was there to cover the cost of the potion used on her before setting off on her new Journey gitri thanks her master for saving her life however while walking through the

corridors to leave someone appears a commanding voice questions Where the girl thinks she's going our protagonist standing in front of his maid stares at her imposingly once again with a serious expression he asks where she thinks she's going a little earlier we see nox questioning the doctor about whether even with someone dying his only concern was the potion's value embarrassed The doctor replies that wasn't the issue instead it was because Knox didn't have permission from the patriarch to use it so he also couldn't Administer the potion moreover there were other reasons behind it but they

weren't relevant our protagonist asked the doctor if his position in the family was higher than that of Theo's son the man immediately apologizes and Bows responding that it wasn't Knox then orders the man to use the potion saying he would report it to his father personally and he didn't mean to worry about anything after administering the potion Rona asks if jit will be all Right and the doctor replies that now that the poison has been neutralized the girl should be fine crying the girl is relieved her friend will be okay and then asks what her

young Master intends to do before leaving the room Knox asks Rona to notify him as soon as jit wakes up elsewhere Theo asks his son what he wants noting that it's quite rare for him to seek him out finally the man asks if his son is there because of that maid before speaking our protagonist Activates his master of acting skill KNX says he remembers that his father promised to Grant him anything he wanted and the man readily agrees then the young man states that he wants gitri de Lilia even if she has been disinherited by

the family Theo feels somewhat apprehensive about the unexpected request our protagonist says to himself that whether it's a butterfly effect that influences the main plot or Theo's spy such things no longer matter to him And that day when he saw jit try to save him he realized something the answer she hadn't given him before about whom she served through her actions jit had now responded practically affirming that she served Knox his father concedes saying he understands and that if that's what his son wants he shall have it the boy stops Boeing and stands up to

have a conversation with his father he tells the patriarch that his useless son has just one more thing to say the man Already fed up asks Knox to just say what he wants Knox begins to grow irritated and the system notifies him that the effectiveness of the master of acting skill is declining due to his State and the boy says that even if Theo is his father he ask the man to please stop playing games with his people his expression chilling then he departs without another word leaving the man standing silently watching his son's departure

we return to the present Moment with KNX facing jiter questioning where she thought she was going trembling the girl responds that she's leaving saying she doesn't think she has a place there anymore she thanks Knox for everything he's done for her but at that moment the young man declares he'll ask one last time the boy questions where jit was going instead of helping him as his maid utterly desolate the girl simply replies that her Master should already know the answer the girl Explains that she received orders from the patriarch to watch over Knox which also

included deceiving him and yet she wants to know why Knox is trying to stop her from leaving she begins to lash out saying she deceived him the maid even asserts that she has no right to complain about anything UNIF Knox expelled her right now so she wants to know why the boy is acting that way hearing this our protagonist starts to wonder if this is the real jiter as that Side of her seems so much more alive the side where she would choose not to give up and keep pushing forward even when times get dark

and difficult Knox tells his maid that for starters people make mistakes however the girl denies it and says she committed a grave offense against her master to which Knox respond that that's exactly why he notes that after making such an affront she couldn't just leave without compensating him and he asks who said she could go Upon hearing that declaration jit is in complete shock finally Knox commands jit to stay there saying he doesn't know what his father thinks but he doesn't need the levil a family's name in truth he only needs his maid's talents as

he walks past her the young man states that he want wants her there and wants her to stay by his side helping him until she can make up for everything hearing this the girl is overwhelmed with joy as since her parents' death she has never Heard such beautiful words she starts to cry and then tells her master that she understands everything he said with tears in her eyes she says she will stay by the young man's side to the end and help him with a smile on his face KNX simply replies that that's great once

again gitri says that her master had once asked her who she served and Knox replies that yes he did finally the girl asks if our protagonist already knew whom she served excited the boy responds Saying he knew very well whom gitri served some time passes and we see Rona telling one of her friends that the young Master had threaten the doctor saying he would kill him at that moment the young man arrives and asks his maid to avoid insulting him right in front of him and the girl is startled to see her master had heard

everything our protagonist noticing the girl didn't even try to hide it complains because she didn't bother to make excuses and Deny she was insulting him Rona realizing her friend is there asks if she's feeling better noting that she shouldn't exert herself in off off to help her with that Rona takes the clothes gitri was carrying and tells her young Master she'll dry them the boy immediately puts his hand on his head questioning why his maid is always causing so much trouble he then asks if gitri already knows that she'll be attending the academy with him

and the Girl replies that she does and has already nearly complete her preparations she explains that she prepared by packing basic things her master might need such as books medicines emergency items clothes and the cad at uniform the girl continues talking but Knox can only watch her with a smile realizing how diligent she truly is is Knox also notices that jiter no longer forces herself to smile around him making it much more comfortable to converse with Her like this now they don't need to exchange unnecessary compliments or engage in meaningless Small Talk however if they

find themselves backed into a corner someday then when they're back to back they'll betrayed each other even so for his relationship with her this was already good enough and indeed an accomplishment on another day we see someone asking her young Master if he's really okay this person is jit who goes on to say that recently some negative Rumors about him have been spreading here during this the boy feels confused thinking it's impressive that there could be worse rumors than before embarrassed the green-haired girl comments that the rumors say the reason KNX kept her as his

maid was because he was in love upon hearing that the young man starts trembling unable to believe he could feel so embarrassed even while playing the role of KNX right afterward he apologizes to jit saying that she's Being teased because of him however the girl says that's not why she mentioned it she explains that she only thought Knox might feel uncomfortable because of these rumors so she wanted to inform him so he'd be aware of the situation the young man tells his maid not to worry since she must have already heard the old rumors of

him being the useless idiotic incompetent youngest of the family the girl tries to Cal the situation but KNX says he'll fire her if She keeps lying so jry admits she really has heard those rumors and the worst part is that there are also rumors saying Knox is a pervert and she asks if that's true composing himself the young man thinks his current image is much better now before he was a reckless useless weakling but now he's just a somewhat capable brat who does as he pleases he notes to himself that he still needs to find

a balance after all Knox is the villain and he must continue Playing this role so the protagonist can shine because he isn't the main character of inner lunatic and can't pretend to be at this moment he asks his maid to forget about it and to stop talking about these rumors immediately suddenly he tells the girl that he has a task for her he explains that as jry should already know for them to survive Elden Academy it's not just her that needs to be prepared he does too the young woman asks what kind of Preparations her

master is talking about Knox thinks that jit's stubborn trait shows how trustworthy and determined she is is and it wouldn't hurt to reveal a bit of his plans in fact it even makes it easier to instruct her on tasks so he reveals that he plans to study magic before entering the academy and wants jit's help the girl is completely shocked asking if her master doesn't know that it's illegal in the Empire and whether he still intends to do it Confident KNX simply replies that he does as the family's useless pervert who doesn't care about anything

and jit just says he's being quite Shameless and besides our protagonist was quite resentful but despite everything the girl agrees she comments that she's certain knocks May that decision for a reason and would find some basic books to help him in any way she could our protagonist gives a small smile realizing the young woman is truly Confident just as expected suddenly we hear someone shouting and at that moment Knox wonders what all the commotion is about he goes to his window to find out where all the noise and excitement are coming from at that moment

we see Rodwell announcing that the new Master grain is arriving and our protagonist realizes that finally his brother has returned after graduating and for some unknown reason he even forgotten about this extremely important event confident And pleased the boy remarks that his chance to extend his life has finally arrived Knox calls his maid and says that from that point on he'll need to go on a mission Far Away the girl with a sigh only asks what he's going to come up with this time then we see the young man humming to himself as he watches

his brother's arrival a bit later we see a banquet served at the table Theo Praises his son for graduating from eldine Academy the young gra Von reinh Harbor Simply thanks his father elegantly our protagonist begins to recap his brother's history noting that he's Theo's Second Son and one of knock's older brothers looking over grain's information the boy also notes that he's a flashy guy who likes materialistic women and on top of that he's quite an opportunist at that moment we see grain sharing more about his time at the Academy the boy also explains that the

only reason grain's true personality Hasn't been exposed is because Knox is seen as an even worse failure moreover his brother is excellent at getting along in the political world Gran also used those talents in political maneuvering to make graduation easier as Lan Academy is famous but very challenging to graduate from KNX notes that fewer than a thousand people pass the admission test and only half of those make it to graduation at that moment Theo asks his son if his Departure date for chaters has already been decided graah replies that it has as he'll head to

Southern shaders in 3 days the patriarch then remarks that if he's going there at this time of year it must be a Monster hunting mission to which the boy agrees the narrator explains that chaters lies just beyond the Ryan Harbor range it's a neutral Southern territory bordering the undeveloped desert there besides being Barren it's also infested with monsters And is the worst kind of wasteland grain's mission is to stop a wave of monsters as the Arkham Empire has a rule that one must complete their first assigned mission to become a night graen explains to his

father that when winter arrives chaters always fills with monsters and it seems the Imperial family wants to take some preliminary measures Theo responds that despite being an outer land the other districts will suffer too if it falls so he asks Grain under any circumstances not to tarnish the rein Harbor name the boy simply bows and replies that he will remember that Knox listening to this thinks that the shaders Mission isn't just a simple Monster Hunt the one hand is just a Side Story there are several other even more complex plot lines involved therefore he needs

to profit greatly from it our protagonist finally speaks up at that dinner and asks if his brother is really going to chaters to Which the young man replies yes thinking that logically to gain that profit he'll have to join the subjugation and chaters himself he asks graen if he could go along his brother and father are completely surprised by that request from the family's useless member his brother asks Knox what he's talking about and if he even knows what place that is surprisingly Knox replies that he's heard it's a neutral territory where monsters attack suddenly

in an Unpredictable way and that Bandits dominate hearing this gra responds that he's recently heard a lot about Knox and at that moment our protagonist recalls that grain's ability is called precise detection so grain asks if it's true that Knox really cleared the forest of lost children with the second daughter of the still Riner family the boy replies affirmatively while in his mind he notes that grain's skill detects lies if the target's status is lower than his In summary that that's the skill that made him an expert in political games in their world and at

that moment gra begins reassessing everything Knox has done our protagonist simply replies yes while thinking that his seal mentality skill counteracts precise detection knox's brother irritated just says that he's achieved many good things lately but he can't allow him someone who hasn't even been admitted to Lan Academy to accompany him on this Mission as he Doesn't want to be the one retrieving Knox of corpse afterward for some reason Theo stands up and asks his son to wait and says he thinks he can personally Ure that won't happen at that moment in an unexpected move the

man orders his son to take Knox with him grain tries to protest but Theo simply states that it's an order Knox remains silent stunned by his father's action and finally Theo mentions that their family will provide the necessary supplies for the mission Moreover KNX should make the necessary preparations to depart in 3 days the boy confused by the entire situation questions what just happened and if his father really granted him permission that easily reflecting on it he wonders if his father is planning something with that decision now KNX brother completely furious with what's happening demands

to know what Knox is plotting grayan also asks if Knox has truly lost his mind exuding an intimidating Aura the young Man responds that no matter how crazy it is he can't be any crazier than he already is and gray questions if his brother really dares to joke the older brother grabs Knox by the collar warning him to be careful since it would be a shame if he got hurt after gaining that rare chance to go to chaters at that moment someone accidentally spills a glass of wine we see that the one who slipped and

caused this was jit who was utterly shocked in reality the wine Spilled over Knox and gitri embarrassed apologizes saying she'll wash it for him immediately grain releases KNX treating him with disdain Knox tells his brother it seems his maid made a mistake and then apologizes on her behalf after that he excuses himself and begins to leave with jiter toward his room before exiting through the door the boy says he'll see his brother in 3 days when they head to the subjugation and chaters hearing his brother's insinuation Gran Just watches Knox leave seething with anger a

short while later we see our protagonist thanking J tree after changing clothes he remarks that thanks to her he managed to get out of problem and the girl responds that her master certainly has a knack for getting into trouble confused she asks if everything will really be okay since chaters is such a strange place and KNX merely responds that it'll be fine suddenly rona's Voice rings out echoing through The room as she calls for her master she asks where their young Master just said he was going hearing this our protagonist questions itas made forgot that

he is the young Master here KNX simply replies that everything has already been decided thinking to himself that the new of a useless person joining a subjugation in cheaters is indeed shocking gitri concern also speaks up and says she's siding with Rona this time and won't stay silent she asserts That she thinks the chaters region is very dangerous with hundreds of monster and Bandit attacks Knox thinks that's exactly why he's going as it's his chance to increase his lifespan So he responds that both of them should stay calm as he knows exactly what he's doing

the boy adds that for this Mission he'll be going alone so they should stay behind but jit just says she's sorry then she comments that she can't let Knox do this alone she explains that as His personal maid she has a duty to assist him wherever he goes so she'll be accompanying him however KNX responds that she might get hurt but jit is already aware of that and more defiant than ever she retorts that the same applies to Knox additionally she'd heard from Rona that her master was quite weak and tended to get sick easily

so she'd have to accompany him not only that Knox wouldn't be able to handle such a long trip without a maid as he often ends up Forgetting his belongings he'd also meet his clothes washed and after that Massacre jri asks if truly thinks he can do all that alone without any help our protagonist nods thinking it makes sense as she mentions some trivial details he would need to worry about otherwise but if he died gitri would also have issues with her position within the ran Harbor family so she had no choice but to follow him

finally he agrees but states that gitri will have to obey him and Will also need to learn how to ride cow only then could she come along the girl agrees and mentions that she's actually close to Cal but upon hearing this Rona questions if jit has really gotten close to him confused Rona asks how jit managed that and the girl explains that she spent half her salary on highquality sugar cues and gave them to him hearing this Rona questions if the horse didn't find hey delicious as well finally she remarks that KY is just as

arrogant as His master but upon hearing that KNX says Rona will be staying behind after giving Rona a light tap on the head he turns to gitri telling her she'll be helping him and since she's coming along she needs to prepare a few things before leaving Knox notices that Rona has been very concerned and wonders if she'll really be all right suddenly there's a knock on the door and the three of them in the room look at each other in confusion Rodwell opens the door and Tells Jan Master Knox that the patriarch wishes to give

him an item hearing this our protagonist is completely baffled by this unexpected gesture from his father he then recalls Theo's statement that the family would provide the necessary supplies for the mission and wonders if this is one of the items he mentioned moreover during dinner Theo seemed to be on his side for some reason and his father is probably plotting something finally we see the Patriarchs welcoming His son into his office as the boy bows before his father he remarks that he heard he had something to give him the man responds that he does but

whether our protagonist can obtain the item depends on him he opens a box containing a gigantic sword and explains that it's the sword of the first patriarch of rean Harbor seeing that object before him our protagonist remains speechless for a brief moment wondering if that's really the first patriarch's sword looking at His father the young man comments that this is at the very least quite unexpected since this item never appeared in inner lunatic even as a veteran player who's completed the game 27 times he didn't know it existed confused the young man wonders why his

father would give him such a thing as he doesn't understand the situation at all determined to obtain it he decides he must get that weapon no matter what but upon closer inspection he notes that the Sword's appearance is unusual Theo then tells his son that the sword probably looks worn out to him however it accompanied the first patriarch throughout his life and has been with him all this time excited our protagonist asks his father what test he must pass to obtain the weapon The Man simply replies that he should try to hold it the young

man hesitates for a moment but reaches for the hilt of the gigantic sword as he grips it a powerful Dark dark Aura begins to emanate from it and a wave of darkness fills the room nox realizes that his Mana is being entirely absorbed by the object the color of the blade begins to shift and KNX instantly notices this as he watches the weapon emit that purple Aura Theo stands up and says that as expected his son has started to sense Mana the boy remains confused but his father walks past him remarking that it's just as

he thought and it's fantastic he explains That the sword absorbs its Master's mana and releases it multiple times over hearing this KNX confused responds that he thinks won't be an easy sword to wield however suddenly he realizes that the dark Mana emanating from the weapon is intensifying the system notifies him that his Mana is being absorbed too quickly due to the abrupt change in his condition the master of acting trait begins to destabilize Knox immediately realizes it would be dangerous if his Mana were drained this quickly at that moment Theo seizes the opportunity telling Knox

that if he wants to receive the sword he only needs to pass a small test and hold it for 10 minutes hearing this the young man is shocked Knox understands that in his current state it would be impossible to endure that long mentally cursing his father as a Wretched Man finally Theo reveals the sword's name stormbringer while KNX struges to endure the system begins Displaying information about the sword one detail is that its special effect is that whenever nox kills something with it the sword will absorb his mana and convert it into its own stats

and after accumulating a significant amount of the player's Mana the sword will unleash it unlocking its power however noox isn't concerned with that at the moment instead he's focused on the system message indicating that his Mana has been entirely consumed and that it will Switch his energy source the system informs him that his life force is now being converted into mana and the sword begins to absorb it the boy's life starts to drain rapidly leaving him in a state of complete Panic holding the weapon he realizes he can't handle it anymore and needs to give

up immediately or something bad might happen however for some reason he's unable to release the sword at all he realizes that the cursed sword is exploiting him while Theo watches the scene the patriarch observing stormbringer states that the weapon is a magical sword that grants great power to its wielder but also harms them the first patriarch used it to build the family yet while Ry Harbor became respected his descendants were unable to wield the weapon Thea reflects that most people would have fainted from exhaustion the moment they gripped that sword and lasting more than 10

minutes is incredible furthermore he admits that Even with his training he can barely hold it for an hour still he ordered his youngest son who hasn't even learned how to control Mana to hold that sword the man notes that including the recent incident where KNX saved his maid his son has always been involved in major events so none of this could be a coincidence in other words his son is truly evolving far beyond his expectations Theo even thinks that perhaps the boy has as much talent as The sword Emperor and in fact that's why he

decided to test Knox if he can endure wielding it for 10 minutes it means he could become the greatest patriarch in the history of their family at that moment our protagonist places the sword's tip on the ground and begins to rise finally Theo reflects that Knox will probably surpass him and eventually they'll be able to kill him which is exactly what he desires from his son son watching Knox the man remarks that as he Thought the boy was indeed hiding his strength the young man questions what his father is talking about but seriously Theo merely

walks past him imposingly he declares that from now on the sword stormbringer belongs to Knox the boy sweating after all he's endured simply thinks that this is a nightmare he comments that he should at least get his life force back before his father just leaves 3 days later we see the Cavalry prepared for the chaters Subjugation Journey jri riding on the same horse's knocks mentions that she had a lot to bring and luckily the bag could hold it all Knox however maintains a serious expression seeing this the young woman thinks Knox is very anxious for

the mission but suddenly he seems to be in a foul mood for some reason our protagonist is only thinking that despite Theo giving him another item besides stormbringer he's not even remotely grateful after seeing all his Hard-earned life force disappear observing his brother the boy comments that gra really brought a lot of stuff moreover even though he allowed knocks to come along on the condition that he carry all of it is still a bit much though since he'll make use of grain it's fine s an argument breaks out about which direction leads to chaters for

some reason the guides are debating which way to go gra completely Furious thinks they'll be delayed significantly If this continues angry the boy immediately approaches his subordinate Ron asserting that he guaranteed they would find the way embarrassed the captain of the order of knights hired by grain apologizes explaining that this happened because he'd never taken that route before watching this our protagonist calls those men idiots and upon hearing that jri asks what her young Master is talking about the boy simply replies that he wasn't speaking Speaking to his maid he was talking about those incompetent

fools for some reason he makes his horse approach grains and calls out to his brother he asks gra if they're having some kind of problem in his usual snobbish way graay merely responds that it's none of our protagonist's business but immediately Knox realizes and remarks that gra really is lost Furious grain turns around saying just told him it's none of his business however with a confident Expression Knox offers to lead them all to chaters staring at Knox gra thinks that this boy has lived in the Mansion his entire life so there's no way he could

lead them to haers but for some reason KNX confident asks grain to let him guide the Expedition noting that he's skilled enough that even the family vassals Praise Him hearing this grain appears thoughtful while jri thinks the LIE is absurd even for her master grain considers that it could be an issue if They arrive too late but wonders what would happen if Knox fails to lead them there if that happens he'd likely be able to crush his brother's confidence so maybe taking a small detour isn't a bad idea finally gr tells Knox that since he's

so confident he'll let him leave for now and the boy Smiles at his brother our protagonist then takes the lead on his course C and starts heading in Direction sometime later we see a campfire and a camp set up by grain's Vassals outrage grain questions his vassals asking how Knox managed to find the correct path so quickly he states that the South hasn't even been fully explored yet and even trained guides struggle to find the way there none of this makes any sense irritated he continues unable to believe that his brother actually did it even

though he's never left the Mansion Knox behind a tent listens to all the complaints he thinks to himself that he knows this Route better than anyone for a veteran player this is a piece of cake Knox even remarks that he's visited chaters hundreds of times and that the area is a strategic point at that moment gitri arrives calling for her young master and asking how he found the way so quickly the bo points in a direction and asks if she sees what's on the ground he explains that those are the footprints and feathers of an

owl bear this is a monster that lives in the South with the Body of a bear in the head of an owl and its habitat is on the southern border of chaters in other words if he follows the direction of these tracks it's easy to find the route to chaters concerned gitri asks if it's safe to camp in an owl bear's habitat that night Knox replies that those creatures fear fire and will come to the camp with this many people around all of grain's vassals praise our protagonists impressed by his skill hearing this and even

being Compared to his younger brother gra becomes completely Furious he turns to his subordinates Schultz and questions if Harts and Allen really lost a Knox grain's Butler promptly responds that yes that's what happened determined grain says he needs to see how strong Knox is his Butler then responds that fortunately he has the perfect item for that he pulls a small Leather Pouch with an item inside from his clothes seeing this grain laughs wickedly saying it Looks like Knox will have a very long night at that moment we see jit and KNX coordinating the vassals to

set up the camp finally after everything is in order Mike Falls over the camp the guard on duty is asleep and a horrendously ugly ogre-like creature begins to approach the camp from the forest from one of the tents Knox awakens and realizes it has already begun with his sword in hand he stands up and jit asks what's happening the boy steps out of His tent and tells his made to wait there because he has some Matters To Handle under the Moonlight in the forest our protagonist stands before a few creatures we see that these monsters

are OAS armed with Spike clubs despite this nox seems to be handling the situation well and isn't taking it too seriously looking at the item Shults through near his tent he identifies it as the cause the boy explains that it's mixed with female over pheromones and grain not It's Mating Season used it to attract the monsters he remarks that even if his brother intends to intimidate him he won't back down drawing his sword our protagonist Comm his stormbringer to take his life force and the system notifies him that the weapon is responding to his mana

and will one of the ogres and rage charges our protagonist to kill him thanks to his agility noox Dodges the first attack he then leaps evading another Blow from the Three overs attacking him in midair he turns his sword's blade downward aiming to land it on a monster he advances toward one of the creatures successfully piercing it through the back after that the two remaining monsters seize the moment and move to attack the small boy however with extreme agility he manages to strike both creatures one of the monsters begins to gush Ketchup from his wound

and collapses to the ground seeing this Knox realizes that his sword is Indeed powerful he comments that he was worried about potential issues if it began to consume his Mana recklessly but it seems he worried for nothing once again he turns to one of the creatures now staggering from the initial sword strike and hits it again in his mind the boy notes that it feels as though his sword is moving exactly in the direction he wants after finishing off three of the ogres he notices only one creature Remains the last monster drops this Weapon and

becomes extremely intimidated by knock's presence it turns to run and our protagonist thinks he can't let it escape the young man whistles and calls for his course cal cal who is asleep promptly awakens and suddenly his man begins to Glow at that moment Cal passes by our protagonist who mounts his Steed the two of them quickly chase down the ogre determined not to let it get away without Mercy Knox ends the life of the unfortunate creature while riding his Horse after the last ogre is defeated the system notifies Knox that he has gained one day

and 9 hours of life from defeating the ogres at that moment jri emerges from the tent concerned about her young Master's well-being as he Dismounts from Cal the young man reminds her that he told her to wait in the tent and jiter Confused asks how those ogres appeared at the edge of the forest Knox on the other hand ignores her question and states that someone lured the ogres There on purpose she's baffled that our protagonist declares that it was gra Von ran Harbor the boy explains that his brother used the ogre's behavior to make them

attack which is why he set up his tent far away the maid realizes this means that young Master gra was trying to Knox under control and our protagonist confirms she's correct apparently gra thinks he doesn't deserve to be in the family's line of succession and that's why he figured and be better To test his abilities here Knox explains that compared to Garen the eldest son grain isn't very strong so he had no choice but to resort to a cowardly plan annoyed Knox declares he'll show his brother that such a scheme won't work on him he

takes a vial from his bag and jit asks what he's planning to do with a wicked smile and an intimidating expression Knox asks if she knows how to attract even more ogres for some reason our protagonist begins collecting the Ketchup dripping from the bodies of the creatures he reveals that to attract more ogres he'll use their own blood as ogres are like humans they seek to avenge their fallen Companions and he'll use that desire to exact his own Revenge meanwhile for some reason a crystal orb is emitting a sound and energy grain upon waking questions

what's happening with a Mana detection Crystal and why it's reacting that way he explains that it's a magical tool that senses nearby Monster's Mana wondering if it's malfunctioning he's confused as they're still at the forest's edge and a strong enough monster shouldn't be around to trigger the crystal suddenly a loud noise is heard outside his tent and his subordinates begin shouting for their young Master Schulz enters the tent urging his Lord to flee immediately gra bewildered demands to know what all the commotion is about as he steps out he sees multiple ogres attacking his Subordinates

and Schultz explains that the ERS appeared suddenly in large numbers knox's brother is in complete shock asserting that those creatures shouldn't be there by morning a pile of over bodies lies among the Camp's ruins enraged graen is berating his subordinate calling him a fool frustrated from a Sleepless mag he asks if Schultz placed the pheromone item on his tent however Schultz quickly replies that he clearly put it on young Master Knox's tent meanwhile our protagonist is just waking up after a long night's sleep the young man remarks that it's a beautiful morning and asks if

his maid agrees but jit merely suggests he should have breakfast he sits by the fire and invites jit to join him but she insists that as a servant she can't eat alongside her master Knox responds that they're on a mission and it'd be inconvenient if she had to prepare food separately he also jokes that it'd be Bad if a monster appeared trying to spoof jiter he mentions that dozens of oders might show up just like near his brother's tent jigri rubs her head and Knox asks what's wrong she replies that her master is quite shamess

Knox merely laughs telling her she'll soon get used to it meanwhile gr is ordering his subordinate to take down all the tents as they're preparing to move out looking at one of the Blood Stained tents knocks thinks it needs to be discarded Otherwise it'll continue attracting ogres his maid asks what he plans to do next and if they should assist grain however Knox firmly declines saying he has no reason to help since his brother is an outright jerk gitri is confused pointing out that if they don't help the creatures will keep being attracted our protagonist

agrees noting that even if they move away the ogres will likely keep following in his mind though he admits this is exactly what he wants Though he's sure a jiter will scold him later Knox tells himself he needs more ogres to increase his lifespan and that they'll soon need the ogres for something else as he looks up the sky he smiles anticipating what's to come elsewhere we see something happening underground with the Earth beginning to crack finally Knox tells jit they should pack up and get ready to move deeper in the forest we see an

ogre walking calmly until something approaches it from Behind before it can turn the ground beneath it collapses and all that's left is its ketchup spilling out riding his course our protagonist reflects that it's already the second day and he successfully familiarized himself with the terrain he thinks to himself that chaters is still far away which is somewhat concerning but everything is going smoothly suddenly his brother approaches on Horseback to speak with Knox rain asks what he intends to do About the ogres following them questioning if he really has a plan Knox with confidence in his

gaze promptly replies that he does he explains that they could kill the ogres but doing so would attract other monsters so it's better to focus on leaving the forest quickly and finally he mentions that the ogres will no longer be a problem if they manage to escape but Gran seems reluctant upon hearing all of this as he didn't trust Knox the boy promptly Complains while thinking that suddenly his brother had taken command of the soldiers without him noticing and was being praised by everyone suddenly one of the soldiers approaches young Master Knox and asks why

the boy kept hitting the ground with that branch and for some reason our protagonist reveals that he was doing it because monsters could appear at any moment all the other soldiers upon hearing the word monster become completely frightened not knowing What was lurking nearby before Knox could say more about it the ground beneath the horses begins to tremble jit in this situation is completely scared not knowing what she should do something starts cracking the ground and emerges from beneath revealing itself but on the other hand KNX seems actually quite excited claiming here it came the

worm then from under the ground a grotesque creature with a completely disgusting mouth and no eyes similar to a Demogorgan appears Knox explains that the worm is a monster that resembles both a worm and a serpent and an inner lunatic it is known as a malformed dragon the boy comments that because of this that gigantic creature couldn't use magic but it was still quite famous for being very strong stence even if dozens of overs came running towards it the worm would still be the hardest monster to defeat but in truth Knox was very eager about

that monster when while Thinking about the things he could gain from defeating it the young man mentions that the soldiers would probably be shocked if they found out he was trying to lure the worm to the surface by hitting the ground then at that moment he orders all his people to hide quickly in the bushes the soldiers are completely confused by that decision as they were getting ready to attack the only thing KNX says to himself is that the enemy of his enemy is actually his Friend then we return to the moment when he told

his brother grain that in fact the ogres wouldn't be a problem suddenly a huge Rumble occurs as if several people were running in One Direction and The soldiers become startled at that moment Knox reveals that he never intended to get rid of those ogres from the start and thus an army of them can be seen approaching jry is completely confused and warns the young Master about the approach of those creatures Knox on the other hand just says that the girl doesn't mean to worry as he actually has a plan our protagonist asks his servant if

the girl knew which Monsters the worm both loves and hates at the same time the girl becomes even more confused but before she can say anything the gr trembles and she moves closer to Knox at that moment the Young Man reveals that the monster the most hated and loved were the ogres and so battle between the two species Begins The boy explains that ogres are the worm's primary source of food but are always seeking Revenge so both are basically enemies and that's why skilled adventurers know very well how to use this information the worm with

its extremely odd mouth lunges at one of the ogres immobilizing and immediately finishing it off however at that moment other creatures start attacking that gigantic monster and finally everyone realizes what was happening and sees That the monsters were attacking each other grain who was hiding in the bushes becomes completely completely irritated wanting to know how KNX knew something like that jit confused asks her master if they should just wait now meanwhile the creatures continue in their fierce battle but for some reason Knox picks up a stone and throws it this Stone hits one of the

ogres and the boy continues doing this to several of them confused jit questions what her young Master is Doing and asks if he didn't know the ogres might attack the worm then defeats more of its Arch enemies and at that moment our protagonist's strength begins to increase and his life is extended as well the boy mentally apologizes to his servant and states that he needed to cause damage to the ogres at least once to gain XP in the blink of an eye the battle ends and finally the worm defeats all its enemies gra comments that

his brother did well in using the ogres but In the end those creatures lost and he asks what they should do the young man says that it will be very difficult to kill the worm and for him to escape he urgently needed to take action suddenly and without hesitation knock stands up and orders all his people to prepare for battle the boy comments that his vassals could throw Spears or flaming arrows into the Monster's mouth without hesitation the soldiers rise and promptly begin to follow KNX thus the Battle begins and everyone starts firing projectiles toward

the mouth of that worm the monster recoils a bit after so many attacks and at that moment KNX draws his sword and states that now it's his turn he activates his powerful ability genius time and begins to see everything in slow motion time practically stops and all the projectiles in the air are frozen in the blink of an eye our protagonist charges toward his enemy to put an end to that Battle he leaps into the air heading for the Monster's mouth which was practically paralyzed with extreme agility he delivers several slashes toward the worm and

then lands on the ground as his ability deactivates the monster before anyone could see what happened is completely sliced and shredded and at that moment the system notifies that nox's life has been extended by 10 days the creature's body falls beside our protagonist and seeing How much time he gained the young man comments that it was much more than he expected he also mentions that he thinks it was pretty good for a medium-sized monster but that if it weren't for the ogres they wouldn't have managed to kill that creature knox's stamina reaches five and the

effect of his Blessing of evolution trait disappears the boy then mentions that along with the curse and the weakness he also ended up losing the blessing of evolution but on the other Hand he finally managed to reach the much desired five in stamina Two Soldiers approach our protagonist asking if the boy had gotten hurt anywhere but Knox replies no and congratulates his comrades all the soldiers begin to praise the young Master saying that he was truly amazing however proud as he was the boy merely responds that it was nothing and that they should reorganize but

on the hand once again the ground starts to crack in one place confused Nox is completely frightened and at that moment another worm emerges our protagonist is very scared not understanding why there were more of those worms there suddenly an unknown figure appears and in the blink of an eye manages to slice that worm in half we see that this person had white hair and wore a monacle KNX still shaken by the whole situation wonders what that was and looking at that unknown being he questions why that person is there that Person lands on top

of the worm's body and KNX calls him the sword genius our protagonist thinks that this character was the strongest in inner lunatic and is celsus as student and one of the three sword Emperors alongside Theo and his name was paracelsus then at that moment the genius tells gra that he just saved him and yet received no thanks Knox keeps staring at him and simply thinks that paracelsus besides that hates nobles with all his might Schultz Calls paracelsus a disgrace and Reckless questioning if the boy didn't know who grain was the sord genius simply apologizes and

schults questions who he was the boy introduces him self as paracelsus and states that they can just consider him a mercenary Knox comments to himself that because of what he went through when he was younger it's understandable why he hates Noble so much but his more important problem was that the first encounter with paracelsus Was supposed to happen at the Elden Academy the boy questions what happened and what he should do while staring at that being sometime later we see the soldiers grain and knock along with paracelsus riding on Horseback toward the city of chaters

maxed brother questions if paracelsus was really a mercenary and finally asks if the boy was also heading to chaters just like them however he replies yes as that would be his first stop and he heard it Was a great place to hunt monsters our protagonist says to himself that on second thought paracelsus traveled all across the Empire and so he could advance in his training before classes began graen tells the boy that he seemed quite confident in his skills and asks if he was also traveling alone the young man suggests that paracelsus join his command

to subdue monsters and claims he sure he'll pay him well paracelsus says that since gra and Knox were the sons of Theovon rain Harbor one of the sword Emperors he admitted he was curious to see their skills Schultz irritated questions how the boy dares to speak in such a rude manner but grain asks his subordinate to relax and says he'll give paracelsus time to think in his mind the young man thinks that paracelsus managed to take down the worm of a single blow so he needed the boy by his side and with a malicious expression

he states that this is how he'll regain the Solders attention since Knox was the center of attention at that moment sometime later we see a small town with a few people Knox informs his brother that they finally arried while thinking that this was indeed shaders looking at the number of people there the boy notes that the town seemed even more deserted compared to what was in the game gr and glancing around sees that the town was quite rund down with various rats wandering about a peasant child Approaches and asks the noble if he could get

something to eat however the boy acts disdainfully and just walks past the girl ignoring her KNX also ignores her and paracelsus seems uncomfortable with her attitude suddenly a tall man with long hair approaches our protagonist group The Man introduces himself as Tagan and states that he is the head of security for that Village he mentions that they must be Lords gra Von R Harbor who graduated from the academy And Knox the younger brother takan also states that he was informed beforehand that the two would be coming there for their investigation Mission paracelsus comments that this

encounter with the sons of a sword Emperor from Ry Harbor was impressive he had a high expectations when he heard that the proud family would personally come to chaters for subjugation Mission but although Knox managed to handle the worm with a somewhat decent sword technique He thought the two were still just spoiled young masters and observing Knox the young man comments that the two were a disappointment he remarks that once again the town fails to function properly as the night order is busy diverting the people's money to fill their own bellies moreover the citizens are

unable to defend their position against an order of monsters and would be satisfied just to have something to eat tan then says that since it's Already late he'll explain the mission details tomorrow and Knox and gra should rest from a long journey at the end all the soldiers begin unpacking and tying up the horses meanwhile paracelsus approaches grain and starts talking about the earlier proposal the boy gets excited thinking that the genius was going to become one of his subordinates but the young man responds that he won't accept the proposal the spoiled boy questions the

young man about what he Intends to do furthermore he asks if paracelsus plans to fight against an order of monsters alone paracelsus replies that he will First Act according to what he had already planned but before that he wanted a safe subjugation for grain finally the young man states that if a person is skilled they can do well anywhere and that's how the world Works Knox seeing the young man's action thinks that they might meet again sooner than expected Mike finally Falls over The small town in his room Knox tells jit that they should rest

as they'll be leaving early the next day he finally closes his room door while gazing at the simple window there the boy walks up to it and looking outside he sees the child who had asked him for food earlier with other children sitting by a fire the little girl was beside another boy who seemed to be her brother practically lying down suddenly Knox goes up to them and asks the three if they'd like Something to eat the boy opens a leather bag revealing that hell some bread he starts Distributing it telling the children they can

take it without fear the girl from earlier crying with emotion asks if this was really real our protagonist in his mind states that he couldn't save everyone so he saw this as just a display of kindness and generosity the girl begins to thank our protagonist while Knox thinks that he wants to create a future where those Children don't have to beg for food but for that to happen he first had to survive chaters jry who was behind a wall observing the scene thinks that she knew this would happen since Knox had just been acting tough

before while walking through the village with KNX and grain tan says that as they may already know the southern region of chaters typically becomes infested with monsters during the winter and that is why they always request funds and reinforcements From the Imperial family to help them grain then while looking at the walls asks if those things are meant to protect the village and Tagan says yes but they've been there for a long time and needs some repairs we then see that the fences around the town were completely worn out from monster attacks Knox while walking

around thinks that it won't last even an hour before being destroyed when the wave of monsters Begins the boy also explains that being Just a sub chapter it was his choice whether he would save that Village or not and most of the time he chose to save chaters and in fact the reason was quite obvious as that town had high value and the future would become a very expensive piece of land at that moment tan remembers something and comments that there was something different about the monsters that year as the number of furious monsters had

increased significantly upon hearing this our Protagonist thinks that these people still don't know but in reality having more Furious monsters would help them later while still touring the town tan reveals that in fact the worst part was that some villagers had also seen a griffin upon hearing this all the soldiers are shocked including grain and the boy comments that a griffin indeed made the situation more severe he asks tavan where this creature was seen and the man quickly responds that it was Near the Wilderness while Knox thinks that one of the most important factors in

this subjugation of chaters is whether they will be able to drive that Griffin away or not since this monster was the king of the Wilderness and it was designed to be stocked but confident L the young man states that his goal was to put an end to that monster a little outside the town tan reveals that this was the Wilderness of the infinite Horizon moreover that area was connected To the east of Talen a neutral zone and was quite famous for being a Barren land KNX speaks his first words of the day and says that

there was something strange going on there he reveals that Griffins usually don't stay near the town of chaters and generally remain in tah haland so the boy asks if tan knows why they are here for some reason the young man leading the tour and Ron seem extremely uncomfortable and surprised by that question our protagonist in his Mind comments that he had a good suspicion of who the traitor was that would stab him in the back during that subjugation and the side quest started in other words first he would try to cut off most of the

rck from the village to begin his main objective in house and shaders we see someone reading some papers this person completely irritated crumples one of the papers for no apparent reason we see that it was Schulz who was saying that at first he Didn't care about KNX because he heard he was just a useless brat but because of him he lost favor with grain irritated the young man states that that he worked hard to get grain's favor and wouldn't let Knox get away with this and would punish the boy in any way he could kri

begins to descend the stairs and Schultz seems quite interested in the girl seeing an opportunity for Revenge he watches the girl with a malicious expression while we're calling her name The young man states that he found out she was a peasant then suddenly he stands up and slams his hand against the wall behind the girl as the jerk that he was the young man with his other hand grabs the girl's hand pulling her closer jit completely confused and scared asks if Schultz wants something from her the chubby boy comments that yes and that in fact

he wanted many things but it wasn't anything serious he just wanted to have a conversation with the servant just the Two of them however jiter not being Nave quickly pulls her hand back freeing herself still bothered the girl comments that she had nothing to discuss with Schultz in particular irritated grain's Butler says that there was nothing wrong with that sense even though he was a night in service to his master he also deserved a little fun and this also applied to the servant then he places his hand on the girl's shoulder harassing her at that

moment jit in her Mind thinks that if she rejects the advances of that guy now young Master Knox will fall into disgrace with young Master grain and he might get into trouble and attract unnecessary attention from the family furthermore she didn't want her young Master to suffer in any way that's why even unwillingly the girl begins to give in Schultz Furious says that thanks to the girl's master all the efforts he made for 10 years went down the drain and he Was going to make jiter repay him suddenly Knox arrives and comments that Schultz probably

wanted something in exchange and that he would pay personally then the boy separates jit from Schultz the way he does this is anything but pleasant as Knox rips the chubby boy's arm off with a malicious expression and his bloodied sword in hand the boy questions Schultz how he wanted to be rewarded on the ground the chubby boy is completely desperate Questioning what the boy was doing and then claiming that even he wouldn't be able to escape the consequences of this Furious Schultz ask knno if he thinks young Master grain will just stand by and let

this pass with an even more terrifying expression Knox asks if Schulz was threatening him with his own brother this time the boy rips off the other hand of his enemy leaving him in utter despair with his arm and now his hands severed the boy begins screaming In pain he places his hands on the ground to support himself and admits he was wrong even though Knox comes from a powerful family our protagonist doesn't let himself be shaken and retorts that even though he comes from a powerful family it's not him who doesn't know his place it's

Schultz at that moment the boy ends Schultz's life piercing him in the back jit completely shocked by the scene says that her young Master Knox did something wrong and that Master Grain wouldn't let this go suddenly Schultz boss arrives in the room questioning his brother what the hell was going on Desperate you can't believe Knox really just killed his subordinate and Butler without hesitation our protagonist simply replies that it's exactly what he did and grain asks how he dared he yells at his brother's face stating that a useless person like him shouldn't have the audacity

to say he's the one responsible for killing his Knight unshaken knock simply says that his brother has misunderstood the situation and that you should ask him for the details of what happened first but gra completely enraged grabs his brother by the holler to try and intimidate him he gets closer to Knox and asks why the boy killed his Butler then states that if he doesn't provide a reasonable explanation he won't let him get away unpunished the young man then reveals that Schultz tried to sexually Assault his servant and as her master he couldn't just stand

by and watch that scen like a child gra seems to handle that poorly and says that the servant was just a peasant however KNX starts emitting a powerful Aura and questions what his brother just said and if he could take responsibility for this with a terrifying expression he grabs grain's hand pulling away from his collar and the boy is completely intimidated by his brother's power green thinks that in Fact his useless little brother was quite talented and he can't believe it the boy steps back and says that KNX should at least have reported this to

him first but the boy replies that he was the family's famous useless one in other words he wasn't used to doing things like reports or waiting that's why he suggests that the two leave the problem for their father to solve after they return home grain becomes completely irritated realizing that his Brother wanted something from him and responds that he'll leave the decision for when they return home with a smile on his face the little white-haired boy replies that it was a great choice and at that moment he calls for his servant but two leave the

room while his brother watches Knox leaving wondering when he became so strong confused gra also thinks that in fact that sword his brother was holding he had seen somewhere before finally the boy states That he couldn't underestimate Knox during that mission in any way Knox outside next to jit thinks that there will be a huge mess among the soldiers since they've already separated into factions and are now on a Crossroads where they need to make a decision that decision was whether follow grain or follow KNX something the soldiers will probably fight among themselves to decide

looking at his servant the boy mimes that gitri is shaking for some Reason he asks the girl if everything is okay but with a tearful voice she replies that it is turning around she asks if her master will really be okay with tears streaming down her face she questions why Knox did that as if this issue intensifies he will make even more enemies moreover he will be in danger again if that happens and basically it will all be her fault offended our protagonist questions jri still didn't know what kind of Master she had after All

he was the useless one from the ran Harbor family so it didn't matter where they were jri should never lower her head to anyone wiping the tears from her eyes the girl promptly agrees and says she will remember that soon after we see someone who was drinking in their room placing the cup on the table irritated Gran questions how that useless person dared to try and go over him the boy reports that Knox was very different from what he had imagined moreover that Sword was very strange and it was probably just a coincidence that it

looked like his father's sword the boy comments that he needed to keep an eye on Knox but now that he had lost Schultz he didn't know who he could trust to watch his brother Ron enters the room and mentions that the situation on the first floor had already been resolved but something bothered him as young Master Knox was completely the opposite of the rumors they had heard grainy Looking at the man thinks that Knox wasn't the only one who was different there as the man was supposed to be the captain of a night order that

had done a lot of work in the area that's why the boy asks how Knox who only study from books knew that place better than Ron and why he didn't pay all that money for such a sloppy job the boy then concludes that since the wave of monsters hasn't started yet he will use the man's night orders for just a little longer the Young man then asks Ron to make sure to get rid of the monsters and bandits in the neighborhood and if KNX starts acting strangely to inform him immediately the head of the knights

promptly responds that he understands and soon begins to leave the room a short time later we see gitri asking her master what he had done during the day the girl also asks if by any chance he went to check the village walls and knocks while analyzing a potion replies That he did since they could barely stand his servant asks how they are going to stop the monster wave and the boy responds that they should go to a certain place jit confused asks where they were going since their in was on the other side our protagonist

just replies that he was thinking of recruiting someone new for his teen remembering that even here it was possible to find someone excellent in his mind Knox reveals that this Character was Alina someone he recruited every time he came to chaters and she was a genius at making potions this meant that she was a potion maker a witch who makes potions to make a living hooded jiter and knock walked through the city in a certain direction the girl confused asks if there really was a genius potion maker hiding in such a rundown place the boy

promptly replies that there is and jiter states that she didn't understand since if she was so Talented she shouldn't be hiding in such a remote Corner KNX simply replies that Alina probably has her reasons while thinking that the reason is that this is the hidden route to complete the Chader Arc because in the future Alina will be working for another Empire instead of arim and if the player doesn't complete shaders with that hidden route it will never find Alina again heading toward an isolated Part near the city's sewers KNX asks jit to follow him and

watch where She steps to avoid falling jit simply agrees but in her mind she wonders if there really was a person of that level hiding here as they walk through those dark corridors suddenly a light turns on and gitri quickly becomes alert we see a girl drinking inside her house while refusing to believe that she was stuck in this dead end World sitting in a chair while drinking the girl wonders how she ended up like this until suddenly our protagonist with jiter Arrives and catches the girl red-handed he simply says that he found her thinking

that this would be his potion maker Alina completely startled screams in fear while questioning who those two people were and why the hell there were other people in that place and jiter seems incredulous that there really was someone there the servant tells her master that the genius potion maker he mentioned was actually just a drunk a while later we see Alina apologizing Saying that she had no idea Knox and jit came from such a respected family the boy simply replies that it's fine and says changing the subject that he was there because he needed to

tell alinaa something so she should pay attention in his he thinks that the girl was a character with the most potential for development a talented potion maker and he needed to get her even so she had some flaws so the activates the information system about her we see that Alina's negative point is that she's an alcoholic and some of her skills are dormant irritated he thinks that this was to be expected all questioning which talented character is the useless one from the family would manage to recruit of course none let alone a genius potion maker

he then tells Alina that she's a bit of a problem but they have no choice and she simply says that she doesn't know why but she wants to apologize if she made him angry jry calls for her Young master and says that she knows she's going over the line with what she's about to say but she doesn't think hiring that alcoholic is a very wise decision Knox replies that he knew that too but they were out of auctions and jit simply accepts the choice returning to the subject Alina says that she wants to know why

they came to find her in such a place our protagonist then answers that he will get straight to the point and asks Elina to join him and his Group The Boy also mentions that if she follows him he will give her whatever she needs Elina starts trembling very tempted to accept the offer while KNX just observes however the drunk girl apologizes and says she couldn't accept his offer as she had something she needed to do Knox with audacity questions if this thing she needed to do has anything to do with her friend May the drunk

girl asks how the boy knew about that and our protagonist replies That soon May would be executed however if a Leeman accepted his offer he might even save May and with a malicious expression he asked if he's made the girl change her mind with that opportunity at her house near the sewer Alina was thinking that soon her friend May would be executed she remembers what our protagonist said about helping the girl and that tempts her Elena starts remembering that may was her first and only friend who always rebelled against Those who collected taxes the girl

never held back in opposing Tagan when he wanted to extort more from the poor in the village and that's why she got caught crying Alina thinks that she would prefer if they had taken her instead of May and if she had been more aggressive at the time maybe her friend would be safe in tears the girl also tells herself that she couldn't rescue her friend and she probably doubts Knox will save her and she questions if the Boy will even try to help may but she doesn't think she'll be able to forget about this for

a long time elsewhere we see a Tavern with many people drinking Ron was drinking wine completely relaxed in that place suddenly one of the subordinates questions what gra was like to his Superior the man then answers coldly that he was just an idiot moreover they were only pretending to act like it might order and grain have fallen for the plan one of his Lackey Says that although it was a coincidence it was worth it to have raided the night orders Place Ron since they even managed to get a pendant that could be used for even

bigger jobs Ron then adds that if they show the badge to the ran Harbor family they'll think he is the captain of the night order Ron and because of that he would receive benefits one of his colleagues comments that even with things happening by coincidence it's interesting that their boss's name is The same as Ron's Ron then says that if they take grain hostage they will probably make a huge amount of money from The Ransom since it's the rein Harbor family they are talking about one of these soldiers seems somewhat bothered and suspicious and the

boy questions if everything will be okay he mentions that among the three Shadow families rean Harbor is the most influential and he wonders if anyone has ever Survived after messing with him but as soon as he says this everyone's celebrating becomes extremely uncomfortable they start calling the boy a coward and saying that's why others called him an idiot Ron tells all his colleagues to shut up and then questions what the little boy thinks this place is the chief comments that they are inchers and even the Imperial family abandoned that dump in other words they were

going to make gra a hostage take the ransom Money and then head back to the East and no matter how influential the ran Harbor family is they couldn't do anything in a hostile Nation surrounded by sand the false Ron then comments that after seeking Refuge there they just need to enjoy a life of luxury and with that everyone congratulates their Captain however the boy who was scared reports that this time that brat named Knox was with them and he could probably realize the deception the false Ron rorts that The boy was indeed dangerous as he

had a persistent personality so everyone should know not to get involved with Knox Ron agrees saying they should just keep drinking suddenly the candles that were lighting the place go out and darkness spreads throughout the tavern the captain's two subordinates question what happened and who blew out the candles the false Ron tells his men to stay calm but suddenly blood flies onto his face as he wipes the mess off his Hand he looks at it and wonders what the hell that was looking to the side the man sees his bull cut friend without his head
