================
Arthur, who was now cultivating after half a year, muttered to himself.
'phew~ finally after more than three months, I broke through to the third rank of the Qi Gathering realm.'
'But… If it continues like this, I won't be able to break through to the Body Tempering cultivation realm when I reach ten years old, after all I assume that breaking through from the third rank of Qi Gathering to the fifth rank takes one year and six months.' After thinking about that, Arthur started walking outside. When he arrived at the farm, he saw his father and mother feeding the cows and several animals in the pen.
Arthur started to approach his parents and talk.
"dad, mom. I'm hungry!!!" Hearing the familiar voice, Arthur's parents turned towards him which made them gasp in surprise, because of the sudden appearance of their son.
"Arthur, don't make your father have a heart attack, and again don't go outside even though you can talk and walk, but still father and mother won't allow it." Hearing what his father said, Arthur could only nod.
Actually I'm not really hungry. It's just that, if I don't take this action, my parents will be suspicious of me being reincarnated into this world... But... Somehow I was finally able to talk little by little about four months ago.
Arthur started to remember back, six months ago when he had just broken through the Qi Gathering cultivation realm. At that time, Arthur, bored from continuing to cultivate every night, started trying to talk, which to his surprise actually worked.
'It seems, every time my cultivation rises to a higher level, my body will be developed to the limit.' Arthur muttered to himself and sighed.
Arthur, who was still contemplating, felt a hand grabbing him, he started to turn towards it, and saw his mother holding him.
"m-mom, let me go." Ariana, who saw her son wanting to escape from her arms, could only chuckle and say.
"hehehe~ my cute child, don't try to run away from your mother." Arthur's father, who saw that, could only laugh and talk.
"Yeah, let him go, Ariana. As you can see, our child was already able to walk even when he was one year old and started talking before he was three years old." Ariana, who heard her husband, reluctantly let Arthur go from her arms.
"huh, I know that, honey. But still, something like this couldn't possibly happen to a child the same age as her, not even the daughter of a royal family." Hearing his wife's words, Arthur's father could only frown, fell silent and began to speak.
"hmmm, royal princess huh... Oh yes, now I remember, it was said that the king would hold a welcoming ceremony for the princess when she reached the age of five!" Arthur, who was curious about this, began to ask his father about this king's daughter.
"Father, I really want to know how old the king's daughter is now?" Arthur's father, hearing his son's curiosity, began to answer.
"well, he's the same age as you, two years with a small difference of two months." Arthur, who heard his father's explanation, started asking again.
"So, you could say, the king will invite all the noble families to go to his kingdom?"
"Yeah, like that. But why do you want to know about all this?" Arthur, who saw his father asking something, could only answer.
"Yeah, I'm just curious, maybe in the future I can make our family all rise to duke level!" Hearing his son's words, his father could only laugh out loud and whisper to Arthur.
"Heh, son. Are you planning to get the king's daughter? If yes, then father will support you!" Ariana, who was near Arthur and her husband, heard those words, finally started to speak up.
"Aaron, enough joking, our son is still small, how can you teach him such bad things!" Aaron saw that his wife was very angry, started to sweat coldly and nodded.
Arthur, who saw his father scared, could only chuckle to himself.
'Hehehe, even though my father is brave on the outside, inside he is very afraid of his wife's anger.'
"u-uhh, okay, I'm sorry then, honey." hearing her husband's apology, Ariana started to smile and approached Arthur.
"Even so, I hope you can get to know the king's daughter at the banquet later." Arthur, who heard his mother's words, just nodded.
'Heh, then just leave it to me, I'll show the princess my charisma.' Arthur muttered to himself and smiled.
-----------------------
Six months later, Arthur is now three years old and has reached the fourth rank of Qi Gathering cultivation.
"hmm, very good. Finally after almost half a year I was able to break through to the next rank, let's try some techniques."
"Sword Qi, appear!" After saying that, a large blue sword appeared in his hand.
'great, I can't wait to test my cultivation level tonight!' Arthur muttered to himself while clenching his fists.
When a Qi Gathering cultivator reached the fourth rank, they could manipulate the Qi within their body.
Soon after that, the sun began to set and evening had arrived, currently Arthur was having dinner in the living room with his father and mother.
"Arthur, eat slowly, you'll choke." Ariana said to her son who was now eating very heartily.
Arthur, who heard his mother's words, stopped eating his food and spoke.
"Okay, mother. I will listen to what you say." Immediately after that, Arthur continued to eat the food on his table, but a little slowly.
Ariana, who saw that, just nodded in satisfaction with her son's attitude.
'Yeah, even though he's obedient. But my son sometimes doesn't listen to what I say.' Ariana muttered to herself, starting to remember when Arthur refused to drink her breast milk.
'huh, what am I thinking. I'm a mother, especially since he's three years old.' Ariana started to shake her head slightly and sighed.
After Arthur and his parents finished eating the food on the table. soon, they went to his room and fell asleep.
Arthur, who now felt that his father and mother were fast asleep, started to walk and opened the bedroom door, closing it slowly.
'Okay, let's get out of this room immediately.' Arthur muttered to himself. Immediately after that, he started heading towards the exit of his house.
"Okay, let's try some of the techniques I created." Arthur, who was now standing near the forest, started to stretch out his hand and immediately he took out his sword.
A blue sword was created and floated beside him, Arthur who saw it just nodded in satisfaction.
'Then, let's try attacking the trees around here.' Immediately after that, Arthur started waving his hands and immediately all the trees around him split.
'hmm, not bad either. But I still have to go beyond my limits, in order to improve all my abilities, starting from increasing energy absorption. that way I can improve my cultivation level more quickly.' Arthur muttered in his heart and started to release Sword Qi again.
"huft-" "huft-"
Arthur, who was now continuing to exceed his limits, began to feel his whole body feeling tight.
's-damn, I can only take it out more than six times, looks like that's my limit for now.' Arthur muttered to himself as his clothes were all covered in wet sweat.
Arthur, who felt his whole body sweating, began to think to himself.
'This is serious, if mother finds out about this, she will scold me, I'd better dry it using Qi.' Soon after, Arthur's entire body was covered in blue energy, starting to cleanse his body and clothes as well.
"Okay, let's go back home and continue cultivating." Before Arthur walked back into his house, he felt an animal with sharp teeth in its mouth, starting to look back.
'ohh, I was really lucky to find a punching bag, to test my strength.' Arthur muttered to himself, who now started to release his Sword Qi and attack towards the creature.
Sensing that something was about to attack it, the creature began to come out of its hiding place, and showed its entire form.
'woah, a wolf. Not bad, then let's try it with my two swords.' Immediately after that, Arthur summoned a second Sword Qi, starting to attack towards the creature.
The wolf, who sensed this, did not remain silent and managed to escape. Even though he was able to escape Arthur's attack, the two swords stopped and started targeting the wolf non-stop.
After that, Arthur saw the corpse of a wolf lying lifeless on the ground.
'Hmm, that's not bad. That's enough to kill a knight with a second rank circle.' Arthur muttered to himself while clenching his fists.
'Oh, I'd better get back soon, otherwise mom and dad will wake up and look for me.' Arthur started walking away from the forest and entered his house.
----------------------------
After eight months later.
Arthur, who was currently sitting cross-legged, started to open his eyes.
"hahahaha, I finally broke through to fifth rank faster than I expected. "Luckily that night, I broke my limit from three to six," Arthur said to himself with a big smile.
"There are 14 months left for the princess to celebrate her five-year anniversary." Arthur said to himself and couldn't wait to surprise him.
'Now I'm sure, even before I'm almost five years old, I'll definitely break through to the sixth rank soon.' Arthur muttered to himself and began to continue his cultivation.
Soon after, another four months had passed, and ten months remained for the celebration of the princess.
In a place, in the Kingdom of Astrea. Now there stands a man wearing a crown on his head and in front of him stands a four year old little girl facing each other.
"My daughter, soon, there are ten months left to celebrate your turning five years old. So I want to ask if there is anything you want?" The little girl who was standing in front of him heard the words her father said, and began to answer in a polite tone.
"Yes, father. There is one request that annoys me, and that is a pile of engagement letters from various kingdoms, so I want you to tell them to stop doing this." hearing what his daughter said, the king could only say.
"Well, father will try to tell the kingdom and other nobles to stop sending those letters." The little girl who heard her father say 'try' started to frown.
"Then I'll excuse myself, father." as soon as his daughter left, the king began to mutter under his breath.
"huh, my cute daughter seems to be starting to hate about those letters, I hope she soon finds a suitable fiancé for her."
--------------------
Soon after, 9 month and 18 days had passed and Arthur was now more than four years old.
"huft-"
Arthur, who was now finished with his cultivation, started to mumble.
"Luckily, now my cultivation is getting faster by surpassing my limits, and I have about 14 days left..." After saying that, Arthur started walking out and headed to the bathroom.
After 15 minutes had passed, Arthur, who had now finished cleaning his body, began to get dressed.
'huh, actually I don't need to shower, but it's still fresher.' After muttering to himself, Arthur started walking out of his house and took a breath of air.
'For some reason, my body currently feels very energetic. Is it because I've broken through to the sixth rank?.' Arthur muttered to himself and nodded in satisfaction.
"There are 14 days left before the celebration of the princess turning 5 years old."
Soon, 13 days had passed and now night had arrived at the Leonard family's house.
"Arthur, tomorrow is the day we will go to the princess' ceremony to welcome her fifth birthday." Arthur, who was now eating, started to turn towards his father and said.
"I know that, father. So don't worry, I will definitely be your good son there and be friends with the princess!" Of course everything Arthur said was just a lie. He had other plans, not only to conquer the princess, but also the daughters of other dukes in the future, so now was the right choice to get into their good graces!
Arthur, who was thinking about his plan, smiled inwardly, starting to continue eating his food.
The next day has arrived.
Arthur, who was now getting dressed, put on a nice shirt and trousers and looked in the mirror.
'Ohh, it turns out I'm quite handsome too, plus I'm a little taller than other kids my age.' Arthur muttered to himself, who had finished putting on his clothes.
"Come on, let's go right now!" Immediately after that, Arthur saw his parents standing in front of the exit and looking at the horse-drawn carriage.
"Arthur, are you finished with your clothes?" Aaron said to his son. Hearing what his father said, Arthur just answered.
"Hehe, don't worry, father, this is all about getting close to the princess." Hearing his son's words, Aaron could only remain silent.
'I-I really didn't think he would take it seriously, huh.' Aaron muttered to himself while sighing.
After Arthur and his parents started to board the carriage, it finally started walking and headed towards the kingdom of Astrea.
Arthur, who was in the carriage, saw that his parents were fast asleep. Arthur finally started cultivating because he was bored.
---------------
Immediately, afternoon arrived, the horse-drawn carriage began to enter the guard gate.
Arthur, who looked around curiously, began to see several equipment and food shops on the streets and he also saw several noble carriages passing by.
'Wow, that's really a big train. Is it a marquis?.' Arthur muttered to himself, looking at the large train passing by.
After more than half an hour, Arthur and his parents finally arrived in front of the royal palace, and saw several people present there in luxurious horse-drawn carriages.
"Wow, father. This place is really big, so is this where the princess will show herself?" Hearing his son's words, Aaron just nodded.
"Okay, let's go in." said Ariana who was now starting to enter the palace doors.
Arthur and Aaron, who saw him walking in, didn't stay silent, they started following from behind.
Once inside, Arthur saw various nobles from the lowest to the highest ranks here.
Arthur, who was now starting to look in various directions, began to see several men and women looking at him, only nodding at them.
'hmmm, the way they look at us like a worm, it's really annoying.' Arthur muttered to himself and endured this humiliation.
'hmph! Just wait and see.' Arthur swore in his heart and started looking around again.
'oh, I saw a beautiful girl who was 8 years old, with long yellow hair and the same height as me.' Arthur, who saw him being approached by several boys who were the same age as him, started approaching them.
The yellow-haired girl turned to Arthur who started walking towards her.
"Hey, all of you over there. Why don't you just get out of here, and let me talk to him." The yellow-haired girl who heard those words, wanted to say something but a sudden voice interrupted her.
"Hmph! Who are you telling us to go away from? Judging from your rank, it seems like you're just a baron." Arthur, who heard the words of a handsome boy, with an arrogant face, began to answer.
"Heh, so what if I'm just a baron, what's important is that I'm much stronger than you!" Hearing Arthur's arrogant words, the man couldn't control himself and said in a loud tone, which made the people around him turn towards them.
"Woah, looks like something interesting is happening here." The nobles who saw that there was going to be a fight, started watching from afar.
Arthur who saw that, started to say.
"Wow, it turns out you are cunning too, taking advantage of this moment to embarrass our family." The boy in front of him who heard Arthur's words, just laughed out loud and answered.
"Yeah, besides if I teach you a lesson here, then your family will really be destroyed." Arthur, who heard his words, began to speak in an insulting tone.
"hmph! A barking dog will never defeat me." The boy who heard that, couldn't hold back anymore and started hitting Arthur.
When the blow hit Arthur's face, who was pretending to be in pain, started to speak.
"f-fuck! I'll pay this back." The boy in front of him who saw that, just laughed out loud and started talking.
"hahaha! Feel my blow once again." Arthur, who felt an attack wanting to punch him in the face, started to raise his finger from behind, which made the boy in front of him fall and fail to land the blow.
Arthur, who saw that, chuckled to himself and muttered.
'hehe, you are just my stepping stone to get this girl.' the boy who saw himself fall, feeling humiliated started to clench his fists harder.
Once again, he continued to fall which made some of the noble girls laugh.
The boy, who could no longer hold himself back from being humiliated by Arthur, began to release his magical energy which made several nobles alert.
"hahaha! If you want to apologize now, it's not too late before I hurt you." hearing the boy's words, Arthur started to sneer and said.
"Huh, I would never do that, especially in front of you, it's impossible!" Hearing Arthur's answer, the boy without thinking began to disappear and stood in front of Arthur while clenching his fists towards him.
However, suddenly a voice announcement appeared around the room, and started talking.
"The princess, Liliana Astrea. Has arrived!" Arthur, who heard the announcement, started to look at Liliana, who had long gray hair and a beautiful face.
Liliana, who was currently turning towards the crowd, started waving at them all and said a sentence.
"Welcome, noble families. To my five year old ceremony, so enjoy this banquet." said Liliana with a graceful face.
