Alan, who was wearing a gorgeous silk robe and had a slightly pale face, was sitting in a carriage. The carriage was spacious enough and there were soft cushions inside.
Outside the carriage were 20 well-equipped warriors. They were tall and burly, wearing fine leather armor and holding swords.
At the front of the carriage was a knight wearing knight armor and riding a warhorse.
Behind the carriage were four to five carriages of supplies. On them were various items such as food, clothing, and other necessities.
Surrounding them was a small group of maids and male servants. The leader was an old butler who was dressed meticulously.
"After all, I have left the home I have lived in for sixteen years. I wonder what kind of territory the Earl will give me.”
Alan's slightly tender face was filled with helplessness and self-mockery.
Sixteen years ago, he had transmigrated to this world and became the current leader of the Thorned Flower Family, the second son of Count Albert.
This was a world of swords and magic. Nobles could cultivate battle energy and magic, becoming powerful existences that surpassed mortals.
Powerful and cool knights, mysterious and gorgeous mages.
These professions were what Alan yearned for the most.
Unfortunately, as the second son of the earl, he had a good combat qi manual and enough money to support his cultivation. He even had a father who was a level eight knight as his teacher.
However, after ten years of training, Alan still only had a weak beginner's battle aura.
As the child of a large family, Alan's aptitude could be said to be extremely trash.
Everyone even felt that a good-for-nothing like Alan would probably never be able to become a knight in his lifetime. He would not be able to charge forward on the battlefield and make contributions.
Thorned Flower Earl Albert had even found a noble mage for this, hoping that Alan would have magic talent.
The result was obvious. Alan did not have any magic talent.
A noble child who could not become a knight or a mage, Alan was no longer nurtured by his family after he was ten years old.
At the age of 16, he had become an adult. At the same time, he had been granted the title of a vassal baron by Thorned Flower Earl. His territory was at the edge of the Earl's territory, called Rose Town.
I hope it's a good place.
Alan sighed. He was a little worried about his future.
It was obvious that the Earl was completely disappointed in him and had sent him away.
Ever since his mother passed away, the Earl disliked him even more.
Alan thought to himself.
The team had already walked for more than half a day. They estimated that they would probably reach their territory by noon tomorrow.
Time passed very quickly. Under the protection of a powerful knight and 20 brave warriors, Alan successfully arrived at his territory.
Soon, he was disappointed.
As the territory at the edge of the Earl's territory, Rose Town was obviously not as beautiful as its name suggested.
It was surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the only side without mountains faced the largest inland sea in the entire Duchy.
The only way in and out of Rose Town was the rugged mountain road that Alan had taken when he came.
The people here were all emaciated and dressed in tattered clothes. They were curiously looking at the luxurious carriage with the Thorn Flower Family emblem carved on it.
They knew that the person sitting inside was their lord.
"Oh, Alan, look at this remote place. There's nothing here. Damn it, can we really live here?”
Treasurer Sparrow rode his horse to the window of Alan's carriage and complained.
This middle-aged treasurer with a mustache was the assistant that Earl Albert had assigned to Alan. However, the treasurer did not look too good at the moment.
Along the way, he saw many barren fields, muddy roads, sallow and emaciated civilians, and poverty.
This made him extremely dissatisfied. There was no chance of making a fortune here. He even suspected that he would starve to death.
Alan understood the seriousness of the matter even without him saying it. He had thought that the Earl would at least give him a good fief so that he could live a stable and rich life.
He didn't expect Rose Town to be such a poor place.
Soon, the carriage arrived at the residence of the Lord of Rose Town. It was a two-story old castle.
"Damn it, what was the lord doing here before! Could someone really live in such a shabby place?”
The old butler Edward's expression turned ugly. Compared to Sparrow being forced to follow Alan, Edward had taken the initiative to come here with Alan.
Edward was the butler who had followed Alan's mother. It could be said that he had watched Alan grow up.
He was extremely loyal and protective of Alan.
"Forget it, Grandpa Edward. It's good enough to have a place to stay. Let the servants disturb this place and move everything in. I hope it won't rain soon. Otherwise, who knows how many places will leak.”
Alan said with a bitter smile.
Edward sighed and looked lovingly at the handsome youth in front of him.""Alright, Lord Baron, I will go and give the order.”
Soon, under Butler Edward's command, more than twenty servants began to quickly disturb the castle and put the supplies given by the earl into the castle.
Two hours later, the castle was barely tidied up. Other than the reception hall on the first floor, there was only the kitchen and dining room at the back.
On the second floor, there were some rooms, study rooms, and so on.
After a busy afternoon, everyone was tired. Alan got someone to prepare dinner.
The sumptuous dinner made Alan barely perk up. After the servants prepared hot water, Alan took a comfortable hot bath after dinner.
After taking a shower, Alan did not go to bed immediately. Instead, he stared at a slightly strange jade stone in front of him.
"Sir, this was found in the storage room. Also, don't stay in the study for too long.”
Edward said.
Alan nodded slightly." Okay, I understand. I'll go to bed after reading a book."”
Edward bowed slightly and slowly left the study.
After he left, Alan picked up this strange stone.
"Jade? Or magic materials?"
Alan muttered to himself. As he spoke, his fingers had already gently touched the stone.
Immediately, Alan felt as if a powerful suction force had suddenly appeared in his body, sucking away some kind of power contained in the stone.
At the same time, a voice appeared in his mind.
"Ding! [Discovered Dragon Power. Activating the Strongest Overlord System. Beginning binding to the system!]”
"Ding! System binding successful! Activate legendary creature species, dragon species!”
"Ding! Congratulations, host. The system has rewarded you with a giant dragon egg!”
"Ding! Begin assigning missions!"
