Undead
With a wind-powered ship, Gloden could finally open a direct trade route from White River City to Raven Shore. That route would bypass treacherous terrain and cut down travel time drastically.And most importantly,Salt.Salt was a high-demand commodity.If he could control its flow, he could reduce its price locally and sell it at a premium in neighboring noble territories.The profits would be enormous.Torvald’s invention wasn’t just a ship, it was a key to economic dominance.Gloden clenched his fists."I must have him. One way or another."-----"Ring!!!"Aaron’s eyes snapped open.The loud bell echoed through the castle, still ringing in his ears.He rushed to the window, sliding the curtains aside.Outside, armed soldiers were pouring out of the castle gates, torches blazing against the evening sky.Suddenly, his door burst open.Alice entered with Fiona, her expression tense."Aaron, the Undeads… they’ve appeared."Aaron immediately began strapping on his leather armor. "M

Experience Farming
After speaking, Aaron didn’t glance back at Alice or Fiona. Instead, his eyes locked onto the battlefield below.He noticed something peculiar the undead whose skulls were cracked collapsed instantly.To verify his theory, he drew another arrow and aimed precisely at a skeleton’s head.It was effortless for him.The arrow flew true, shattering the skull with a clean strike.The skeleton crumbled on the spot.At the same time, he opened the map and checked his stats. He found that an additional 10 experience points had been added. Seeing this, he confirmed that only by shattering a skeleton's skull could he kill it.Alice and Fiona, gritting their teeth, once again fired arrows toward the undead.From the side, Aaron added calmly,"You both need to relax. It’s not like the undead will jump directly onto the city wall. And they’re not unkillable. Just aim for the head, it’ll crumble to dust."With that, he resumed shooting, ignoring the girls.This was a rare opportunity to farm exper

Knight Cavalry
He had just killed three level-five skeletons when he noticed the cavalry had already clashed with the undead.What stunned him was the sheer dominance,It was one-sided suppression.He quickly opened his map and checked the green dots representing the cavalry.There were 200 of them, and every single one was level 11 or above.Aaron was speechless."This cavalry… it’s entirely made up of Knights."He couldn’t help but mutter to himself,"So this is the power a Duke holds."Just as he thought he had grasped the extent of a Duke’s strength, the soldiers around him whispered among themselves:"If Commander Molard were here, those undead wouldn’t last even five minutes.""Indeed. His elite troops may only number a hundred, but every one of them is a fearsome Knight.""I’ve heard rumors they’re currently exploring a dangerous region.""Alright, stop talking about Commander Molard. Captain Dolo and Captain Molo shouldn’t be underestimated either.""True. It’s fortunate they’re stationed in

Dagger
The next day, at the dining table…Aaron sat quietly, eating breakfast alongside Duke Alaric and Alice.Though the table was grand and spacious, it felt oddly empty with just the three of them seated.Suddenly, Alaric spoke, "Aaron, three days from now will be the day of Alice’s marriage ceremony. I’d like you to attend."Aaron smiled and replied without hesitation, "Of course, Lord Duke."Alice blushed, keeping her eyes fixed on the food in front of her.Alaric noticed and smiled faintly.After finishing his meal, he added, "Aaron, today you can accompany Alice to test the parachute."Aaron, who had planned to visit Edrin and Torvald, could only set those plans aside. "Okay, Lord Alaric."Satisfied, Alaric rose and left the room.Alice turned to Aaron and asked, "Aaron, which place would be best for testing it?"Aaron replied, "A steep mountain top."Alice thought for a moment, "Will Stiff Shore work?"Aaron looked puzzled, "Stiff Shore? I’ve never heard of it."Alice patted her fo

Background
Inside Duke Alaric’s study…He stared at the letter before him, a look of confusion clouding his face."Aaron’s background is so poor… His mother was a slave, and his father, just a Baron in name. So where did he get the resources to cultivate to Knight level at such a young age?"His eyes narrowed as he read further."It’s also mentioned that after returning from the Dark Forest, his strength changed drastically. He even wiped out a bandit group and saved Maria, Duke Augustine’s daughter."Alaric fell silent for a moment.Then he chuckled bitterly."And here I was thinking Aaron came from a powerful lineage."But his amusement faded.His gaze turned bone-chilling cold."So… he deceived me."He paused."No, not exactly. I never asked about his origins. I simply assumed."He leaned back, troubled."But… I can’t allow him to attend my daughter’s marriage ceremony. If he manages to win her over, what will I say when the nobles question his background?""They’ll say I betrothed my daughte

A Friend In Need
"I don’t want you at the ceremony. In fact, you must leave Starfall City by tomorrow afternoon. If you’re still here after that… I’ll have you executed."Aaron’s mood turned incomparably gloomy, but he kept his composure and replied in a slightly hoarse voice, "Understood, Lord Alaric. I’ll leave by tomorrow afternoon."As he turned to leave, Alaric added coldly, "Someone of your status is unworthy of living in my castle. Take your belongings and get out."Aaron walked out calmly.His eyes were red, and his fists clenched tightly.He swore to himself, "Duke Alaric… one day, I’ll return this humiliation a hundredfold."With that vow burning in his heart, he returned to his room.He packed his belongings, taking the bow, his reward for slaying thousands of undead.He strapped on his sword, carefully fastened the dagger at his waist, and left the room without looking back.As Aaron left the castle, no one stopped him.He walked steadily toward Carpenter Road, heading for the Ravenscar sh

Captain Monga
Aaron was stunned by Captain Monga’s question.Torvald, on the other hand, sighed and placed a hand on his forehead."Hey Monga, why are you asking meaningless questions again?"Before Monga could retort, Baron Aaron spoke calmly, "It depends on how deeply the captain loves his ship.""Personally, I don’t believe the captain should drown with it. A ship can be rebuilt, but once a person dies, they can’t be revived."His words silenced them both.Torvald blinked, surprised by the depth of Aaron’s response.But it was Monga who was truly stunned.He had always loved ships, not just as vessels, but as symbols of freedom.Every time he sailed, he felt alive, untethered from the world.He often dreamed of sailing endlessly, without interruption.But reality always pulled him back, within two or three days, he had to dock for supplies.Captain Monga couldn’t help but drift into memory.He remembered his childhood, those quiet mornings spent fishing with his father, a man born into slavery.

Slave Village
"Finally, I need you to buy spices and salts."He stopped and then asked, "What will be the total cost?"Captain Monga thought for a while and replied, "It will cost almost 100 gold coins."Aaron, with a thoughtful look on his face, said, "Follow me. I will pay you 150 gold coins. Buy the supplies first, after that you can buy the weapons, probably swords for self-defense. As for the remaining money, you can buy ale or rum as you like."Captain Monga was stunned and then excited at the same time. He immediately said in a solemn tone, "Don't worry, Lord Aaron. I will follow your orders."Aaron then looked at Torvald and said, "Let's go. We still need to buy slaves for our territory."Torvald immediately said, "Indeed."As they walked forward, Captain Monga said, "Jack, bring half your people. As for the rest, Blake, take them to clean the deck."Both executed his orders immediately.Meanwhile, Captain Monga hurriedly chased behind Aaron.The sailors were excited in their hearts. But so

Buying Slaves
Aaron thought for a moment and said, "Get me 5 doctors, 10 tailors, 10 blacksmiths, 5 chefs, 5 architects, and 20 carpenters."After saying so, he paused and added, "Do you sell soldiers?"The masked man shook his head and replied, "Nope. But sir, are you sure you don’t want the businessman? Why don’t you meet her first and then decide?"Aaron looked at him and said, "Fine. Bring that person here."The masked man nodded, "Sir, please wait here. I’ll also bring the other slaves according to your request."He left and returned within a few minutes, accompanied by a girl whose face was covered with a veil.Once she arrived, the masked man said, "Sir, this is the person. She’s the daughter of a businessman. If you’re interested, you can buy her for 5 gold coins."Aaron looked at the masked man and said, "Okay."But at that moment, the girl began to sob and said, "Lord, can you buy my sister together with me?"Aaron turned to the masked man and said, "Bring her sister."After saying so, he

Talk
Aaron looked at Torvald and said, "Torvald, I need to talk to you about something important."Torvald nodded, "Let’s go talk in the study room."Aaron entered the study and first used the map to scan the surroundings.Once he confirmed no one was nearby, he said in a serious tone, "Torvald, I need you to buy something that will be very helpful in building a powerful weapon against monsters."Torvald looked at Aaron with a serious expression, "Are you sure?"Aaron nodded.Torvald asked, "What do you need me to buy?"Aaron barely hesitated and replied, "Do you know how to make a bow?"Torvald nodded, "Of course I know how to make one. It’s easy. But a bow won’t help us kill monsters, right?"Aaron replied, "Indeed. That’s why I want you to buy strings, elastic and strong, so they won’t break easily."He paused, then added, "If possible, buy monster bones."Torvald looked at Aaron with a curious expression, "How strong should the string be? A normal bow made with jute strings can shoot
