Chapter 9 - Eat Melon

Two months later, at the training ground. 

"The second stage of the Earth Breathing Technique is completed. Strength increases by 4, agility increases by 5, physical constitution increases by 4, and spirit increases by 4

"Herage Merlin: Strength 14, Agility 14, constitution 14, spirit 9".

"The body data is close to the genetic limit."

After Herage completed the thousandth Earth Breathing Technique practice, he checked his various data. I have spent most of the past two months practicing hard.

At the beginning, there were occasional attacks and harassment from the Behard territory next door, and some food and property were taken away.

But then suddenly everything stopped, and there was no intention of coming back to the Dual Valley. Baron Buck was annoyed by the harassment by the people in Behard's territory.

Every time something happened, he could only defend passively. Those people were like flies wreaking havoc everywhere. They would often run away immediately after trouble occurred in one place. He doesn't have many troops, and all the guards add up to only about 300 people. These few people are already stretched thin just to defend the territory, and they do not have the ability to attack Behard's territory.

What's more, there is a famine in Behard's territory and there are no resources worth plundering.

After the territory was no longer harassed, the guards like Herage were free and no longer had to run around guarding the territory all day long.

"Herage, how are you?" After Emil arrived at the training ground, he walked over and asked about the progress of his practice.

"I still don't have the feeling you mentioned. I guess I have no hope of becoming a knight," Herage said.

His current physical data is almost the same as that of a formal knight, but he cannot become a true knight until he awakens the life seed.

According to the tips from the dark blue chip, he has reached the genetic limit and cannot improve any further. The chance of becoming a knight is already very small.

Emil comforted him: "Don't worry, take your time and practice consistently. Many knights suddenly awaken the seeds of life while practicing without knowing it." Herage nodded without saying anything. He understood that his strength was actually all obtained from Deep Blue's assistance, and he did not actually have the talent to become a knight.

"Emil!" A clear and moving female voice came from the side of the training ground.

Emil looked up, his face obviously showing a bit of surprise and confusion.

His eyes flickered for a few times before he bowed his head and saluted: "Miss Melissa, when did you come back?"

Melissa was the eldest daughter of Baron Buck. She was wearing a luxurious golden dress and walked over slowly and gracefully.

Her skin was fair and her chest was exposed with a hint of snow-white. She smiled sarcastically: "What? Are you surprised to see me? If I told you in advance what day I would come back, would you just find an excuse to patrol the territory?"

Emil still didn't dare to look up, and quickly explained: "The territory is not safe recently. If I know that the lady is coming back, I can pick her up in advance." Melissa didn't take it seriously and chuckled: "I am a student of Nodetine College. My mentor is Arch master Claude. My father is a Grand Knight. Who dares to take action against me?"

"It's always better to be careful..." Emil whispered. "Hmph! Look up at me! Why don't you dare to look at me! Do you know why I came back?" Melissa said emotionally.

Emil raised his head as if he mustered up a lot of courage, just glanced at Melissa's eyes, and then quickly looked away.

"I came back to get married! My father married me to the son of Duke Tulip!"

Melissa confided with tears in her eyes.

Emil was silent for a long time and then said: "That's good. The Tulip Duchy is very big. You should live well in the future."

"Is this what you want to say?" Melissa asked with red eyes.

Emil said nothing. "What I like is you! You also like me! We all know it in our hearts! Why can't you be brave and be with me! Who said that knights can't marry their own ladies? To hell with those backward secular rules! We are Young people, the mentor said, times have changed, and we have to make the decision for our own lives! My father values you so much, tell him and he will definitely agree!"

Melissa shouted and cried with grief and anger.

Herage stood aside and felt very embarrassed. There were only three of them on the entire training ground.

Because Herage was too close, he couldn't move or leave, so he had to stay silently and act as an airman.

"I..." Emil struggled to open his mouth to say something, but in the end he chose silence. This was the first time Herage had seen Emil so helpless.

Snapped!

Melissa slapped Emil hard and left crying. Emil stared blankly at Melissa's leaving figure and remained silent for a long time. After a while, Emil also left alone, leaving Herage alone on the huge training ground.

Herage knew that he seemed to have eaten something extraordinary, so he did not dare to say anything and fled to the back garden.

Old Henry's health has been getting worse and worse recently.

According to the Deep Blue test, he suffers from a variety of common diseases among the elderly.

It is not known whether he can survive this winter.

"If anything goes wrong, just tell Mary. I gave her the funds." Herage said sitting on the bedside. Old Henry was lying on the bed, breathing very unevenly.

Mary is the old maid in the castle, whom Herage paid for.

Herage has been performing very well recently, and with his good relationship with the Emil, his status outside the castle has also risen.

He mentioned to Emil that old Henry needed someone to take care of him as he got old, and Emil immediately arranged it for him, but Herage had to pay for it himself.

Herage chatted with old Henry for a while, talking about recent interesting things in the territory, and while talking, old Henry fell asleep.

He asked Mary to take care of old Henry and returned to his cabin. Now he no longer lives in that leaky house, and now have a house of my own.

There were also a few gold coins in his pocket, which was the baron's reward for his heroic killing of the enemy.

Even if he can't become a knight, his actual combat ability is still the best among the castle guards.

If you are an ordinary person, you may be content with the status quo and live your life like this.

Herage leaned against the window and looked at the full moon that was much bigger in the night sky.

He knew that he would never be satisfied with this. He knew that he did not have the ability to control his destiny. It's just that the path of knighthood is almost cut off, and wizards only exist in legends, so he is also a little confused.

The news that Miss Melissa was joining the Tulip family spread quickly, and the whole territory was filled with joy.

Everyone knows what this means, and the Dual Valley will no longer have to worry about harassment from any territory.

Unless they invade an enemy, no lord of the Norton Kingdom dares to invade the Dual Valley.

No one knows how Baron Buck got on Duke Tulip's line, but the people of Behard Territory did stop harassing the Dual Valley.

"Herage, in the next two months, you have to go with me to garrison the pumpkin farm."

Emil came to Herage early in the morning, carrying a bag on his back, as if he had been prepared for it.
