Arthur, Blackbeard and Arthas returned to the village only to test a hunting group from the village returning. 'Hmm ... It looks like the hunt didn't go well for his features and empty hands. Perfect.' Arthur thought.
"Huh, it looks like the hunt didn't go very well, they brought only a few wolf carcasses, it looks like another wave of hunger is going to go through our village." Said Arthas a little upset.
Arthur looked at his father with a guilty look with a little ridicule mixed in. "Dad, can't you being [A] Rank's knight help the village?" Arthur asked his father, a little irritated by the fact that the peasants had to go hungry for no reason.
"Don't look at me like that, if I enter the forest with my rank it is possible that either the beasts will group together to protect themselves or flee, both situations are unfavorable for hunting." Protested Arthas. "Ok, got it, let's start the first phase." replied Arthur.
Arthur turned to Blackbeard and asked where the poorest part of the village is. "Obviously it's the slums." replied Blackbeard.
Going over there still on his father's shoulder Arthur noticed that the walls seemed like a kind of exhibition because the more they walked towards the favelas the walls became more dirty and 'poor'.
'Wow, there are also clay houses here, even if you have magic, it seems that human nature is the same these fantasy novels were right.' thought Arthur.
Thinking about all this, Arthur turned to his father and asked: "Father, how is our family doing so well despite the lack of food and the poverty of the village?"
* Sigh *
"It looks like you haven't noticed our situation yet." said Arthas. "Son, we are practically noble in the village with me a rank [A] knight stationed in the village and keeping her safe we ended up receiving special treatment and certain privileges."
Huh... Arthur is stunned, he hasn't realized it until now. 'It looks like I will have to reevaluate how I see the ranks from now on.' thought Arthur.
.
Looking around Arthur found a group of 5 children, they are apparently around 14 to 18 years old. The children were dressed a little well for where they lived, three boys and two girls made up the group and among them was Alexandro Garcia. Alexandro saw the trio approaching his group and went to say hello to his master.
"Disciple greets master." Alexandro said to Arthas as he approached him. "It doesn't have to be that formal, boy. We're here today because my son wants to talk to you." said Arthas.
Arthur had already talked about Alexando's real talent to his father as they returned from the Dark Forest, his father was surprised to learn of the Job that his disciple-in-name had. Arthas said his work is rare and widely requested by leadership groups against dungeons and is also the same Job as a general from the kingdom of Castlesilver, who is said to be the strongest kingdom on the continent.
"Hello, I am Arthur son of Arthas as you can see, I will go straight to the point I am here today to recruit you to be one of my subordinates." said Arthur looking directly into Alexandro's eyes.
Alexandro surprised at first to see an apparently 1 year old baby speaking fluently. 'As expected of my master's son.' Alexandro thought as he listened to Arthur speak and explained the current and future planned situation.
Alexandro sees Arthas as a true follower looks at his indoctrinator because when Arthas arrived in the village one of the first things he did was to take Alexandro as a disciple to somehow protect the child. Keep in mind that Alexandro is the only orphan in the village and therefore vulnerable to adults in the village. However, over time Arthas came to notice the boy's talent and came to training more intentionally.
"I got it." said Alexandro after hearing the whole story / plan. "I accept with one condition: that my friends over there can join us too." he said as he waxed his fists showing his determination.
Seeing the determination of the boy Arthur looked in the direction of the other 4 young men while frowning when he saw their status.

Arthur then looked at Alexandro, who saw his constant change of expression. "This group seems to have a little talent, I leave you to convince them." said Arthur. Alexandro on hearing this ran to his friends to tell the news. Meanwhile Arthur told his father and Blackbeard about the jobs and skill sets of the youngsters.
"'Seems to have a little talent'? Arthur, are you kidding me right? With this skill set and Jobs they can rival even the Castlesilver army in the future if they are cultivated correctly." Said Arthas. The truth is that the skill set of these young people is considered rare even in the kingdom of Castlesilver can, from being to the focus of cultivation of the kingdom.
After understanding his mistake Arthur asked his father why they were not 'taken' by one of the forces of the continent. Your father replied that people with the [Appraisal] skill are a little rare and considered precious.
"Why should I promise my loyalty to a baby who can't even clean up properly yet?" shouted Cristina. Their cry was so loud that the trio managed to hear from a distance. What Arthur heard made him a little irritated as not being able to clean himself is one of his shame since he reincarnated.
