I'm endlessly stacking Q in another world

"It's cold outside, let's practice here."

Zevia could tell he wanted to return to swordsmanship, and she walked over with a smile.

"I'll teach you step by step."

"it is good."

Ize nodded.

Compared to figuring it out on your own, having someone teach you step by step definitely helps you master it faster.

"I want to use a real sword."

"Use mine first."

Zevia unsheathed her slightly slender, red-scabbard longsword from her waist, handed it to Ize, and smiled with narrowed eyes.

"Once you pass the test, your sister will give you a sword."

"I'd like to have one custom-made."

Ize took the steel longsword and thought of the sword—or rather, the dagger—that Master Yi wore in the original artwork.

Because, apart from Chinese, many languages ​​are inseparable from swords and knives, sharing a single vocabulary.

Therefore, what Master Yi, the Sword Saint, actually used was the Chinese term "straight-spine longsword," and he should be called the Wuji Sword Saint.

Of course, this is just a translation issue and there's no need to delve into it.

At least the skills are applicable to both swords and sabers; both can be used for slashing and thrusting, but sabers are more suitable for slashing, while swords are more suitable for thrusting.

However, he still hoped to use the family's resources to forge a "straight-spine longsword," which would give him a greater sense of immersion in the role of the Wuji Sword Saint.

"Customization is definitely not a problem."

Zevia chuckled softly and reached out to pat Ize's head.

"As long as you like it, that's fine."

Because of her weak constitution since childhood, Ize naturally grew slowly and is currently a head shorter than her, only a little over 1.5 meters tall, not even as tall as the maid, Feline.

You need to eat more meat in the future so you can grow taller.

However, if it gets too big, it won't be cute anymore.

Let's leave it at this size!

Just the right size to pull my head into your arms! To bury my face in your chest!

Afterwards, she transformed into a swordsmanship instructor, personally guiding Ize on basic sword techniques such as gripping the sword, slashing, and thrusting.

As the sole heir to the Count's title, Ize naturally had diligently practiced swordsmanship.

Because he was weak since childhood, he had always trained with a wooden sword and had never had any real sparring with anyone.

However, if he does not awaken to extraordinary abilities and acquire the military power required to become an earl before his parents grow old, he may be disqualified from inheriting the title.

A lord, if not the strongest in his territory, must at least not be weak.

Unless one is exceptionally capable in "territorial governance" and can command the respect of their knights, minor lords, and nobles.

Or he may have a group of followers who do not follow him because of force.

One must possess at least one of the three qualities—military strength, intelligence, or charisma—to be worthy of the title of "Count Lord".

In the future, if he marries and has children, he may be able to produce offspring with extraordinary martial prowess, thus continuing the family's glory of establishing itself through martial arts.

Or it could be a direct succession across generations, with Count Damian raising his grandson before he died.

Knowing that he might not be able to command respect through force, Ize, who was frail from childhood, kept reading and studying.

At the same time, treat those around you with kindness and show your charm.

Unfortunately, he was still cursed.

But if they weren't cursed, how could they awaken their past life memories and get the gacha cheat?

Perhaps he needs to "die" once.

After awakening his past life memories, the memories of his past life and the memories of this life were merged within the past two weeks.

Their personalities also merged into one, becoming indistinguishable.

Therefore, the current Yi Ze possesses both the composure and prudence of an adult from his previous life and the shyness and innocence of a teenager in this life. By taking the best from each and discarding the worst, he has ultimately become a better version of himself.

To her older sister Zevia, this felt somewhat strange.

Sometimes she feels that her younger brother is still that super cute, shy younger brother.

Sometimes she felt that her younger brother had become more mature and steady, making him hard for her to understand.

……

Ize's sword training continued until lunchtime.

"Sir, the first batch of live monsters has been delivered into the city!"

"Have them brought to the manor."

"Yes."

Count Damian thought to himself, "As expected of an adventurer, he's willing to risk his life to improve capture efficiency for money."

Fortunately, adventurers are responsible for their own lives and deaths, so he doesn't have to pay for their lives or provide disability benefits.

If you're not capable, don't take on a mission; if you do, don't complain. That's what adventurers are all about.

If you can't stand it, go home and farm. Why be an adventurer?

Let's have lunch first.

He walked out of the study and headed towards the dining hall.

If you were to eat after seeing such a hideous and ferocious monster, you probably wouldn't be able to eat anything.

During the meal, Ize learned that the live monster had been brought into the city, and he was secretly excited.

As expected of adventurers, their efficiency is truly impressive!

Fortunately, he was born into a count's family and was an only child.

Otherwise, given his physical condition, hunting live monsters would be virtually impossible.

He patiently and slowly finished his rather substantial lunch.

It's no use him eating fast; his parents eat politely, and even after he finishes, he has to wait a while before he can see the living monster.

Two slices of buttered bread, a steak slightly larger than the one from the morning, and a bowl of blood-nourishing soup prescribed by the royal physician to help him recover.

It is said that the original recipe originated from the Sun Knights in the royal capital.

The current general version has replaced several rare medicinal herbs, resulting in a significant reduction in effectiveness compared to the original version, but it still enhances physical constitution and vitality.

Such a bowl is said to be worth one gold coin—he only drank it and didn't know its exact value; he only heard the gold coin from the maid.

This gold coin could be exchanged for 100 silver coins or 10,000 copper coins, enough for a family of three in a commoner to eat coarse grain bread for a year.

This gold coin was simply the cost of his daily bowl of blood-nourishing soup, a practice he had been maintaining for three years.

At twelve years old, he had not yet awakened to his extraordinary potential, so his parents naturally became anxious and tried various methods to help him, sparing no expense in investing massive resources.

So, what is "Extraordinary Awakening"?

This can be understood as "talent awakening".

When the concentration of magic power in the body reaches a certain level, it will stimulate extraordinary physical or mental talents.

Like her older sister Zevia, who awakened extraordinary abilities at the age of eight, possessing an affinity for elemental fire, a body temperature higher than normal, and spontaneously gained the ability to control elemental fire.

The father, Count Damian, awakened the "eye of the heart" hidden in his family bloodline, possessing a more acute insight and perception than ordinary people.

It makes it easier to spot enemy weaknesses and subsequent attacks during combat.

Through training, one can more quickly master the subtleties and essentials of swordsmanship.

It's a very good support talent.

Whether it's fighting or training, you'll be able to handle it more skillfully.

As Yi Ze drank the blood-replenishing soup, he couldn't help but wonder if his many hero skills counted as extraordinary awakening.

If we could get another "Mind's Eye" talent, that would be even better.

It doesn't matter if it's not possible; one more passive ability won't make a difference.

The blood-nourishing soup didn't taste bitter, but it had a strange flavor.

After eating steak and drinking blood-nourishing soup, his body began to feel hot.

His blood seemed to be rushing and boiling, making his head throb.

This is said to be the body's way of absorbing the medicinal properties, enhancing physical fitness and vitality.

Combined with the unique breathing techniques of the Sun Knights, it can enhance physical fitness more effectively and quickly.

However, the Order of the Sun Knights was an exclusive army used by the king and the royal family to counterbalance local nobles. Soldiers were selected only from the royal bloodline and were directly commanded by the king.

If nobles want to get involved, it only means they want to be king.

Your fate is self-evident.

After the family of four finished lunch, they finally got up and walked together toward the gate.

Four horse-drawn carriages with wooden cages were already parked in the front yard of the manor.

Inside the cage were four kinds of monsters whose hands and feet had been cut off, and the severed hands and feet were also thrown into the cage.

It was bloody.
