Xenon looked at the number of hate points emotionally, finally!
431 points were added, and they came from just one person. When Xenon angered the village where he ended up when he was transported to this world, only around 100+ hate points were added because they were just ordinary humans.
Well, it doesn't matter for now. What matters now is that he now has 511 hate points!
Xenon immediately checked the System and was excited to go to the 'Beginner Chest.'
As an ordinary person, he could die at any moment, but now he was going to have a strong man who would protect him!
Without hesitation, Xenon quickly pressed the draw button. Immediately, 500 hate points were deducted, leaving him with only 11.
A bright light enveloped the area, and from the light, a middle-aged man riding a horse appeared, exuding powerful energy, and holding a large sword.
"Gustav greets young master!" He knelt before Xenon and respectfully greeted him.
[Ding! Congratulations for pulling Gustav (Knight Captain), Martial Apprentice Stage 9!]
Xenon was so happy; he had really gotten the highest stage in this realm.
"Gustav, let's go to the Stone City."
"Yes, young master!"
And so they rode off on the horse towards Stone City. They met some tier 1 monsters along the way, but Gustav simply waved his hand, and the monsters were instantly killed.
Xenon estimated that it would take them another 9 hours to reach the Stone City.
While traveling, Xenon looked inside the spatial pouch, and indeed, these were really beautiful treasures!
If he ate these herbs, he was sure he would quickly reach Martial Apprentice Stage 1.
He was now at 80% of reaching Martial Apprentice Stage 1, having started gathering Spiritual Energy 1 week ago. Actually, Xenon could be considered a genius because for most people, it would take a year to reach this stage from scratch, except for the proud geniuses from strong clans and empires.
Xenon took a violet fruit from the spatial pouch and ate it.
Suddenly, he felt a strong surge of Spiritual Energy in his body, and now his body felt hot. After a few seconds, a spiritual energy surge filled his body, and finally, Xenon reached Stage 1 of Martial Apprentice!
While this was happening, Gustav remained quiet, controlling the horse, staying alert to ensure his young master's safety.
Xenon felt the surge of his Spiritual Energy with great satisfaction.
"This is Martial Apprentice Stage 1?!" He could feel his strength increase three times over.
"Congratulations for reaching Stage 1, Martial Apprentice, Young Master," Gustav said respectfully.
Xenon simply nodded in response.
"It's natural; I am the best in the world," Xenon replied, and Gustav agreed; his young master was truly the best in the world!
Xenon smiled and then closed his eyes, stabilizing his Spiritual Energy within his body.
