Morning sun gradually emerge from horizon. Sea was very calm in the morning. William woke up early in the morning. He had sufficient rest yesterday. After thinking a lot, he formulated his thought, by the outside condition he definitely transmigrated into different persons body or completely different world. He has been trying to contact so called System but after its emergency response it does not work. I think its like electronic gazette which needs energy to operate. William knows that he had to handle everything carefully from this point. according to his predecessors memory, this world is similar to European medieval era. There are kingdoms and monarch who rule this world. noble have all the rights, they oppressed the common people, put excessive tax on them. Common man doesn't have any rights, he can only follow noble household if he wants life better than his peers. Also Slavery is very rampant here.
William was thankful that I am born as noble. Although body owner is useless trash of his family but still he is son of Earl by birth, can enjoy every right as noble. After his abolishment he was sent to Rocco Island by his cheap father. previous body owner doesn't even know where the Rocco Island lies. With all this information William get up from his bed , got outside. First thing come into his view is large and beautiful Sea beach. In his modern world beaches was not this clean and beautiful, they were all contaminated with plastic and solid waste. By inhaling fresh air into his lungs he felt somewhat excited.
I look towards right, several guards where protecting there camp. Roland and some knights can be seen checking the perimeter of the beach. I called for butler Smith.
'Uncle smith, Good morning.' I said. As Smith was my late mothers trusted servant, he was taking care of him from birth. because of this he followed him even after his abolishment.
'Ohh.. young William, You are finally awake. How do you feel today? Do you want to have breakfast?' Smith said very enthusiastically.
'Yes, uncle Smith, I am starving. lets eat something first.' I went to have breakfast with him. Deny his wife prepared the breakfast and serve us.
While eating I ask, 'How much time until we reach Rocco Island.'
Upon getting asked about this, Smith hesitated, 'Actually, my lord we already reach the nearest beach of Rocco island. We only need to travel 5 miles from here to reach Rocco island. There is small village nearby, I ask them to prepare boat for us but nobody wants to take us to Rocco island because it is deserted and wasteland. Also its is occupied by deserters families. There number might be 2000, because of this we camp here until your further instruction.' Smith said.
'Okay, I see. If the villager doesn't want to take us there look for the merchant or any other medium. Is there no town or port which is prosperous. there we can find boats to go to island.' I said.
'Yes, there is town Matunga, 8 miles from our current location. but if we go there then it will be a long way.' Smith said.
'Yes, but we need to find medium to travel otherwise how are we going to take so many people, horses and supply also.' I said.
'Yes my lord. As you say I will search for merchant ship first here. Or else we will travel to Matunga town .' Smith said in very low tone.
'What about the supplies Uncle. Did we loose anything while fighting pirates.' I said.
'No my lords all the supply which we brought are safe. I will go and look for any merchant ship first, excuse me my lord' With this Smith got up and walk towards guards.
"Okay lets see what will happen, but first lets relax for a bit, what a beautiful sea.' I thought.
Smith was bit surprise by Williams way of asking question. He never seen William this serious. He was either looking for woman or looking for trouble in Thornwood city. But this change took him by surprise. He was also happy that William is adopting to his new identity and getting serious about his future. Smith ordered his 5 servant to go to village to again ask for sailor to take them to Rocco island. also he sent out 30 servant near beach to spot any merchant ship which can help them go to Rocco island. Morning went by, but still no chance of getting transportation medium.
"I think, we will have to travel to Matunga town." Smith said it to himself, started walking towards camp. he saw William laying down on beach with naked upper body. Deny preparing some fish to eat.
'Sorry my lord, I think we need to travel to Matunga town. I did not find anything here which can take us to Rocco island.' Smith said in defeated voice.
'Ahh, Uncle Smith. Its okay I can still travel. When are we leaving.' I said.
'We will leave after lunch. We can safely reach Matunga town in time.' Smith said and sat down behinds William. They started there lunch, its just simple boiled fish with some salt on that. William knows that there are few spices available here. Salt is also a luxury only nobles can enjoy because of its high price. I looked at sea and thought if I can find out method to filter out salt from sea water then I can get rich quickly in no time. As they were having dinner, One of the servant came running to them.
'My lord, there is merchant which is ready to take us to Rocco island, he also have 3 large boats but he is demanding 5 gold for on ship.' Servant said.
Smith stood up, 'Where is he? lets go and see .'
I also stood up and started following servant and Smith.
