Chapter Index

    “I just checked, and there are no suitable missions for you recently. To ensure you can stay here comfortably, as your boss, I’ve decided to arrange some private work for you.” Hearing Little Weir’s words, Nicole and Yamei had different expressions. Nicole looked relieved and grateful, while Yamei was completely unwilling.

    “This job is creative work, done for the sake of establishing happiness.” As soon as this sentence came out, Yamei immediately became interested, while Nicole was slightly shocked. Is there really such a thing as creative work done to establish happiness? She felt uneasy just having food and shelter without working, as work had never seemed enjoyable before.

    Deception, continued deception. I’m just quietly watching you lie. Lilith stood silently to the side, arms crossed, watching Little Weir perform.

    Little Weir gave Lilith a look that said, ‘Just you wait.’ “I have a massive enterprise. I spent thousands of gold coins buying it and thousands more decorating it. The basic framework is now complete, and it awaits further refinement, so I need some helpers. I won’t assign you missions recently. You will work for me five hours a day, and I will issue your salary. Yamei, you are a Senior Knight, so you get two gold coins a day, including room and board. Nicole, you are only a Junior Knight, and you don’t have Yamei’s strength, so you can only do work that requires more dexterity. You get two silver coins a day, including room and board.”

    Lilith’s eyes were full of scorn. Is this the price for hiring child labor? This is a Senior Knight and a Junior Knight, yet you offer such a low price! And ‘including room and board,’ huh? Did you think I wouldn’t know? The place you live is the Rose Knight Hall, and the place you eat is the Yorozuya. You don’t have to pay for either! Classmate Weil, I’ve seen through all your tricks.

    “Money earned by myself? Although two gold coins are a bit little, forget it, I’m idle anyway.” Yamei, who had never known the feeling of earning money through manual labor, immediately became interested. Earning money is great! Father once said that being able to earn your own money means you’ve truly grown up. Does that mean I’ve already grown up?

    “Including room and board, is it unlimited? Can I eat anything? Can I eat everything the Chef Uncle makes?” Putting aside the money for now, being able to eat freely was Nicole’s greatest pursuit at the moment. Furthermore, through this period of understanding, she clearly knew that two silver coins seemed like a decent amount, but it wasn’t enough to afford a full banquet at the Yorozuya. However, it was easily enough to ensure she didn’t starve for two or three days.

    Where did you find these idiots? A Senior Knight at this price, and she looks satisfied! Lilith saw Little Weir’s smug expression and felt her teeth ache with hatred. How can this scoundrel’s luck be so good? Should I try poaching his talent?

    “Do you want to work for me? Nicole gets one gold coin a day, and Yamei gets five gold coins a day, including room and board.” Lilith acted immediately on her thought, but she was met with double rejection from Nicole and Yamei.

    “Why? Aren’t my conditions good enough?” Lilith was starting to go crazy.

    Nicole said apologetically, “No, no, I just don’t think I’m worth that price. Besides, following Boss Weil is great! Chef Uncle is the best cook in the world, and being able to eat his food every day is the happiest thing in the world.”

    “In this city, I only know this scoundrel, and he even stole the gift Grandpa prepared for me, so I will definitely cling to him. No one should think of helping him escape.” Did Yamei misunderstand something? You aren’t squeezing him; you are working for him. He is the one squeezing you!

    Lilith was defeated by the two of them. She suddenly felt that the book of wisdom of weir declan was truly miraculous. It seemed that anyone who was convinced by this book wasn’t quite right in the head. It was practically the best IQ Assessment Manual currently available.

    “Help me scribe a copy of this thing. I want to take it and see how many fools I have around me.” Lilith decisively categorized the two girls, who were over eighteen, as mentally deficient. Unfortunately, the two girls, who were over eighteen, didn’t understand, which gave her a sense of frustration. Sure enough, talking to Classmate Weil was much simpler.

    The Scribing Technique was activated, quickly producing five or six copies. He kept the original manuscript for himself, distributed one copy to everyone else, and held the remaining copy himself as a formality. Once rested enough, he continued his Knight training. In fact, at Little Weir’s current level, what was needed was accumulation and comprehension. The two Soul Battlefields had maximized his potential, and now he needed continuous accumulation of potential to usher in the next burst of strength.

    He focused on Angell and Swift. Both were quite good, but compared to the fifteen-year-old Swift, Angell seemed to work harder and was more noticeable. There was no helping it; his voice was the loudest in the entire training hall, whether screaming in agony or shouting during training.

    Perhaps due to personality or Bloodline influence, Swift always seemed a little reserved—soft and weak, yet very tenacious. In the Knight Cultivation Method, shouting is an auxiliary means of exercising cardiopulmonary capacity and also promotes Qi and Blood circulation. Seeing Swift’s training, Little Weir felt anxious for her. A Knight is a profession that requires great dominance. How can you act like a delicate little bird?

    Scout or Assassin might be more suitable for her. Thinking this, Little Weir immediately called Nicole and asked her to provide training according to his ideas. Although Nicole didn’t know why, she obediently approached Swift. Seeing Little Weir nod in approval, Swift didn’t object. In fact, she truly admired Little Weir, not only for advancing to Formal Knight in such a short time but also for immediately charging toward Intermediate Knight, while she herself had been training for nearly two years and was still lingering as an Apprentice Knight.

    Nicole had noticed this Little Girl long ago because she was one of the few students who did not Cultivate the Imitation Twin-Tailed Cat Body Refining Fist. Such students often indicated special treatment—the so-called ‘potential stock’—people worth cultivating specially.

    This girl looks mediocre in all aspects. Why is she being treated specially? There must be a strength I haven’t discovered, definitely. Although Nicole is only a Cat Clan Female Warrior, she has some knowledge of various mainstream Orc Fist Techniques. Guiding Swift in the Imitation Swift Fist Technique was completely fine. It was then that she discovered the girl’s resilience was excellent and that she was very suited to this set of boxing techniques. But why hasn’t she been able to improve? Nicole was completely baffled.

    After Cultivating for a period, Little Weir took Angell and Yamei and rushed to the Blacksmith Shop. He truly didn’t feel safe leaving this ‘Female Tyrannosaur’ with just anyone; it would be bad if she caused trouble.

    The Blacksmith Shop was thrown into chaos because of the addition of a Little Beauty. The chaos wasn’t caused by Angell, Little Weir, or the two Blacksmith Apprentices—it was precisely this Little Beauty. She swung the tens-of-pounds-heavy hammer with fierce momentum, smashing the red-hot Ore so it exploded, scattering fragments everywhere, causing the two Blacksmith Apprentices to yelp and nearly injuring Angell.

    Ironware refined ten or twenty times was casually snapped by her, and she tossed it aside, calling it trash. A dagger refined sixty times might also have suffered her destructive touch if Little Weir hadn’t quickly offered a price. In the end, Little Weir convinced the Female Tyrannosaur to calm down and forge iron for a while, arguing that forging could train precision control over strength. However, the crooked, inferior products she hammered out were truly hideous, making even herself unable to bear looking at them. In the end, she used the excuse of ‘mishandling’ and smashed them all into fragments.

    As a result, Little Weir forged two sixty-five-refinement short swords on this trip but lost several gold coins. The Female Tyrannosaur’s destructive power had erupted in this place where strength could be vented.

    “Is this the power of a Senior Knight? So amazing!” Angell, who admired violence, watched with shining eyes, but Little Weir immediately suppressed him. “This is the consequence of weak power control. You are a Strength-type Knight. I will focus on training your strength and precise control over it. If Female Knights reach a certain level, I will have them practice slicing vegetables with a sword, ensuring uniform size and thickness, and finally being able to slice meat on a vegetable leaf—the meat shredded but the leaf intact.”

    Angell’s eyes flashed brightly. Slicing meat on a vegetable leaf—the meat shredded but the leaf intact—that difficulty is extraordinary, but it’s not suitable for a Strength-type Knight like him. His goal is Ten Hammers Per Refinement when forging iron, fully utilizing his strength and control over it. Before twenty refinements, Classmate Weil could basically achieve Three Hammers Per Refinement, yet he was still dissatisfied. His goal is rumored to be the legendary Grandmaster-level control ability: One Hammer Per Refinement.

    Although the medicinal bath was gone, Angell still habitually took a comfortable hot shower here before leaving. He could now run back on his own after forging iron; the benefits of increased strength, stamina, and speed were fully realized. Still looking for the free novel “the troubles of a young wizard”?
