Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Through Time

The azure sky is boundless, like an endless sapphire.

Several black flying birds screamed as they passed by.

Below is a lush green forest. Between the trees, a winding path emerged. A carriage carrying golden grass was slowly moving forward, and the sound of hooves echoed rhythmically along the path.

On the golden carriage grass, there lay a half aged little boy who looked thirteen or fourteen years old. He had short brown hair, neither beautiful nor handsome, and could only be said to be very ordinary.

The little boy's eyes were tightly closed, as if he was sleeping.

The groom driving the carriage in front was very careful in handling the old horse, trying to make the carriage walk as steadily as possible, as if afraid of disturbing the little boy behind.

Bang!!!

The carriage made a loud noise, and the wheels hit a sharp stone, causing the whole carriage to suddenly shake. Quickly stopped.

Tucci's whole body trembled. Wake up directly from sleep.

His slightly waxy little face wrinkled into a ball, and then slowly opened his eyes.

"Where am I?" The boy's voice was weak. Appears to have insufficient qi.

He sniffled and smelled a fresh breath of grass.

Then he looked around in confusion.

"I'm sorry, Young Master Seras. The carriage hit a stone and disturbed your rest." The coachman was a middle-aged man with a strong and muscular figure, but his clothes were only gray linen clothes.

Seeing Tucci wake up, he immediately turned around and apologized. At the same time, take out the tools and start checking the wheels of the carriage for any damage.

"Young Master Seras?" Tucci was stunned and looked around to make sure there were no others present. Then he pointed to his nose and said, "Are you talking about me?"

"Yeah," the groom nodded honestly as he checked. "You just fell off the horse and suffered a serious injury. You need to rest more. I am the only one left in the city, and I can't find a good carriage for a while, so I have to do you wrong." The middle-aged man with dark skin smiled innocently.

Tucci's face suddenly changed, as if he had realized something.

"No..." he whispered and quickly glanced at himself.

The black hunting suit fits perfectly, with a red belt wrapped around the waist and a black whip tied around it.

A thin and weak body with fair palms. There are also waves of pain coming from the knees and back of the brain.

Suddenly, a severe pain rushed up to the head. Memories of scenes flooded into the brain.

Tucci rolled his eyes and collapsed straight down. Lying on the grass. In a faint voice, he heard the anxious and panicked cries of the groom

After a long time, Tucci slowly woke up again.

There is an extra memory in his mind that does not belong to him at all.

This is the second son of a rural nobleman named Selas Rio. A child of an ordinary aristocrat who is extremely ordinary.

Because during break time, Tucci came out to ride a horse with his companions and fell off the horse, which led to Tucci taking advantage of the situation.

At the same time, some memories of his life also flooded into Tucci's mind.

This is a world very similar to medieval Europe.

The place where he is located is a country called the Kingdom of Rudin. This is a very large country. The Rio family can also be considered a relatively wealthy rural aristocrat in the kingdom. Compared to others, there is more than enough.

The family territory is located on the edge of a large forest in the province of Ararat.

In Selas' memory, he only knew that his father Baron Rio's territory included three knightly territories, five villages and towns, with an annual population of at least 5000 people. Riding a horse from one end of the territory to the other takes at least an hour. This is a very, very large territory.

Selas Rio, the second son of Baron Rio, is also the highest ranking member of the Rio family's current generation. The eldest son has left to join the army but has not returned, and the legitimate inheritance rights of the family are likely to fall into the hands of Selas.

"... I've actually traveled through it..." Tucci rubbed his head and realized that he was lying on a small bed, his clothes had been changed to a white nightgown, and he was covered in a thin layer of white quilt.

This is a spacious and bright bedroom room.

A bed, a white painted writing desk, two high backed chairs, all white.

The window facing the bed was open, and a faint noise came in, as if on the street or something.

A faint breeze wafted in with the aroma of pancakes.

Tucci took a deep breath and suddenly felt hungry.

"Is anyone there?" Tucci compared Selas' memory and confirmed that it was a family residence in the town.

With a creak, the door opened.

He held a small silver bowl in his hand, and waves of tempting meat fragrance wafted out of the bowl.

"Selas, are you better?" The man frowned and walked to the bedside. Place the small bowl on the bedside table and reach out to touch Tucci's forehead.

"You no longer have a fever, drink the broth first. Your body is too weak."

Tucci's mind quickly recalled the memory of the man in front of him.

Kyle Rio, the current head of the Rio family and the lord Baron in charge of the territory. But in front of Selas, he was just a father who loved his son.

"I remember I told you before," Baron Kyle said in a low voice, "Don't hang out with those little things in the city. Even if you're classmates studying knighthood together, don't get too close to them."

Tucci unconsciously lowered his head and whispered. But this is not his intention, it seems to be the original conditioned reflex of this body.

"Falling off a crazy galloping horse, you haven't broken a bone yet, it seems you're lucky." The Baron relaxed slightly. Watching his son bow his head with a guilty expression, he couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

"It's a matter of whether your elder brother runs away and joins the army or not. The hope for the future of my Rio family probably lies entirely with you. If something happens to you again, I can't imagine the consequences..." The Baron sighed and stopped speaking.

Tucci also knew in Selas' memory that his father had this personality.

Externally, he is a powerful Baron of the Rio family, cold and indifferent. There are many servants in the family who were executed by him for minor mistakes. And as a lord with numerous subjects.

The Baron collects beautiful women in his territory every few years. Therefore, there are many children born.

More importantly, last year, the Baron, after a series of planning and calculation, sent troops to annex a nearby Baron's territory, expanding it almost twice.

People outside talk about his cruelty and arrogance. He is cunning and cunning. He is cold and ruthless.

But unfortunately, the Baron's feelings for Selas are unique. Or rather, the feelings for Selas's deceased mother are very special.

So, Selas holds the highest position among all her children.

No matter what requirements he has, the baron will do his best to meet them.

"You have to remember, Selas. Anyway, as the future heir of the Rio family, you should not lack rationality and carefully consider everything before doing anything," Baron Kyle said heavily to Tucci.

"I remember, father," Tucci nodded solemnly.

"Catherine, let's forget it. On the other hand, I have already delivered the girl you wanted before to your room. You are still young, so you can play, but if I find you addicted..." The Baron paused, a hint of cruelty in his eyes. "You know what's going to happen."

"I know." Tucci's heart tightened and he quickly nodded. Although the Baron likes him very much, the trouble he caused this time is quite big.

"Alright, let's rest after finishing the soup. I have something else to attend to. Uncle Ward will find someone to escort you back to the castle later. I'll leave first," the Baron nodded. Turn around and leave.

The moment the bedroom door closes.

Tucci's gaze glanced at a knight standing outside the door, all armored. He recognized him as the strongest warrior under the Baron, the Odis Knight. I like to use heavy armor to stomp on the enemy's head, just like watermelon.

The people in the territory call him the Demon Knight.

With a bang, the bedroom door closed.

The Baron's whispers and footsteps could be heard from the courtyard outside. Gradually moving away. Until you can't hear anything at all.

Tucci turned his head to look at the broth on the bedside table.

He knew that if it were just ordinary broth, the Baron would not personally deliver it.

The meat inside comes from a fish called the ringfish, which is said to have been transformed by an evil wizard who used magic to turn a lost child into a fish. He also drank it before when he was injured.

Tucci took the silver bowl and looked inside.

In the milky white soup, a silver fish with the length of its index finger is faintly visible. The head of the little fish is strikingly a human like face.

"The fish with a child's face..." Tucci murmured, looking at the painful expression on the child's face in the bowl. Suddenly, his stomach churned.

"This world is really not the same as before..." This thought flashed through his mind.

Sitting on the bed, Tucci hesitated for a while before finally squeezing his nose and pouring soup into his stomach. As for the fish head with the child's face, it was torn apart by him alone and left in the bowl. He dare not eat this kind of thing.

After finishing the soup, I rested in bed for a while.

Tucci just started organizing the memories in his mind.

Originally Selas, due to her father's favor, although she was submissive and had no independent opinions in personality, she was no worse than her other children in entertainment. Even more superior.

As long as it's what he wants, whether it's things, pets, property, or even people, the baron will do everything in his power to satisfy him. This has also led to Selas becoming increasingly reckless, wanting to reach out and grab anything he likes.

In other words, it's the standard playboy.

After all, as a baron's estate, the area is already equivalent to a county-level city on Tucci's previous Earth. Although the population has decreased significantly, the rights still need to go beyond that. As a lord, a baron can even cover up the sky with one hand.

In this chaotic era, there is a turbulent situation within the current Kingdom of Rudin. Nobility is ultimately the representative of power and wealth.

However terrifying Baron Kyle's influence may be, the fact that the spoiled Selas has provoked this time is somewhat exaggerated.

During the process of being sent to study the Knight Tutorial, Selas fell in love with a noble girl who was studying together.

The girl's name is Catherine Candia. She is the most favored granddaughter of Viscount Candia, who nominally governs Baron Kyle's estate.

Selas decided to participate in a horse race with another boy in order to showcase herself in front of Catherine. And the result was that his saddle was tampered with by someone, and for a moment, he was not careful, and the original Selas disappeared forever in this world.

"Surprisingly, it was because of the competition for women..." Tucci silently rummaged through his memory. "This world is really... speechless..."
