CHAPTER 17

 

John woke up and found that he was now in a village. The world was a fantasy world. He thought about the RPG stories where the hero is born in the village and tries to fight to the top and become the king of the world. He found that the idea was interesting and decided to work like a hero. He decided to be the purest hero of the most orthodox stories. He was going to be the most courageous hero who is going to challenge everything regardless of strength and he was the strongest with metal control. He wanted to play in this world like the orthodox hero with being a warrior and decided to use metal energy to become a stronger warrior and he was interested in collecting a pretty elf archer, a long-legged mage, an innocent priestess of the goddess and a cute porter. He was going to collect a harem in this world and he decided to marry the princesses and decided to take the noble daughters as his concubines. He will rise to the top and marry the goddesses and kick the god king down the throne. He was going to take the world.

 

He used his metal sensing and sensed the whole multiverse and found that there were no beautiful women. Even the goddesses were not as beautiful as the beautiful women he saw in his previous life. he thought that he would be born in a world where the women would be extremely pretty. He decided to play the game later as he was not interested in the women who were not pretty. His fantasy was destroyed. He decided to just stay alive and keep becoming stronger. What was the use of becoming the king when all the women were nothing more than some ordinary women?

 

John found that he was able to create metal energy of the void level and his body was becoming stronger much faster than the previous times. The innate body of his would be reset to the normal state of that of the race of the person he replaces. He looked at the village and was sad. He did not want to fight against such people and went to the rock and cut it with a sword. All the villagers looked at him and he raised his sword. The villagers cheered as a mage was born in this world. All of them were happy as they did not have to worry about the attacks of supernatural beasts anymore.

 

This world was different as mages were above the knights. Knights practiced using vitality and would use the vitality of the vitality crystal from the vitality beasts. They would be stronger than the normal men and they would live longer. The wizards were different as they did used mana. Even the slightest mana would make them stronger than the knights by ten times. The mana would not only let them live longer than the knights but they were also stronger than the knights in pure physical strength. The knights knight techniques were nothing in front of the mages with even the most basic fireball spell or wind-blade spell. A strong mage can create a fireball the size of the meteorite and destroy a royal capital. There were very few rare ones who were able to just stand physically with the mages as they had special bloodlines. But the mages with special bloodline stood above the knights with special bloodline. The mages were the ones who extracted bloodline from the other beings and installed them into their bodies and onto the knights. In all senses knights were nothing more than a fake product made imitating the mages. The mages had the knights as their servants and the mages were respected and treated as nobles. The mages ready to serve would be made nobles and the strong mage would be allowed to replace the king by marrying the princess and allowing the child to carry the name of the royal family. The children of mages will most likely be mages and surely can become a knight and the children of knights will surely be knights and at worst will have higher physical strength than other normal beings. Mages, no matter what race, be it elf or dragon would be the highly respected one. John stood above the mages and knights of all races as he made a mana known as metal mana that was able to use all the spells of this world and more and still had the effects of metal energy. The metal mana was at the level of infinite void and it was tens of millions stronger than the mana. His body had become much stronger and he could use all the spell he had seen within a glance and develop it further. 

 

John's body was different as it did not have any genes of his own. His body was nothing more than the cells that did not have any genetic information. If he had children the children would be born from his own life and they will be demigods. At worst they will have the physical bodies while he could control and grant them any power he wanted and take away when he wanted. He could control their lives and thoughts; his children were nothing more than tools. There was a reason that the innate beings never had family as they never believed anyone at their own level and anyone even half a level below it is nothing more than toys in their hands. They are nothing more than a virtual story that can be written and changed at any time.

 

John looked at the sky and kept eating the food that was cooked by the villagers. He bought a lot of animal bodies and let them cook it and gave them the mana cores and vitality cores and he did not want to have such low-quality energy. If he wanted, he could create as many cores as he wanted. John ate the food and the villagers tried to be promoted to knights as mana could be used to strengthen the body and then used to extract the vitality from the body to become a knight. The failure chances of becoming a mage was too high. The knight was at least ten times stronger than a normal adult male and the mage was at least 200 times stronger than the normal adult male. They did not have the exercise to make the body become stronger and the mental energy become stronger and they only had the basic knight practice method. The humans were not the strongest and they had to try to let many become knights. The more the cannon fodder fighters, the stronger the nobles and mages could be. The knights were stronger than the normal ones and there was nothing special about it. 

 

John looked at the young man who had successful broken through the knight stage and looked at him kneeling to him. He wanted to become his personal attendant. Not all the knights had the mages to support them. The ones with mages and ones without were different. John looked at him and sensed the energy in his body. The metal energy he had created was more similar to vitality and was similar to metal vitality. He said to him, "What is your name?"

 

He said, "Ryan, my lord."

 

John now understood why they thought of him as a mage as they could sense his mana. The mana could be sensed and there were many types of mana. He said to him, "I will allow you to follow me and if you prove your worth, you can become my knight."

 

Ryan said with gratitude and reverence, "Yes, my lord."

 

John created a titanium sword and gave it to Ryan and said, "Take this knife. It would be better to practice with this sword. This is as strong as the mithril steel but does not have high mana conductivity as it. But it has as high vitality conductivity. This is a martial art technique of using body and sword to fight. Learn it properly. You should at least be able to learn this method." Many fighters had created methods of using energy to fight in his previous life as they had dedicated their whole life to it.

 

Ryan bowed and left his side to practice. All the ones who had tried had not broken through the level of knight but they now had stronger body. The old man came to him. They did not have any problem with the fact that John was acting rude as the class solidification in this world was more severe. John now had a dislike for democracy. The man bowed and said, "What should we do with the skin and bones sir? They are valuable."

 

John shouted, "Ryan."

 

Ryan came running towards him. John created a steel armor for Ryan and gave it to him. Only a knight was allowed to wear a full body armor and there was a mark of knight that he was accepted as a knight in probationary period. The mages had their super defensive robes depending on their area of expertise and the nobles had the artifacts from their ancestors as all nobles were the descendants of the king. He looked at Ryan and spoke, "Go to the nearest town and sell all these items and exchange it for some salt and spices. Also get some heavy wine."

 

Ryan bowed and left. The knight needed an armor to show off his status. John did not say anything about the reward and even if he kept the knight as they slave, he would still smile to him. Many knights are nothing more than experimental materials in this world. He liked all those people who were doing evil as his act would make him look magnanimous. He could play all he wanted. It would have been better if the women were more pretty as many women would come to him. it would have been a good choice to start his debauchery here but the women here were not worthy. He should try to be born in a similar fantasy world with much pretty women in the future.
