Li Weiliam and Mesiro relentlessly trailed the magical beast’s tracks, while Liszt lazily followed behind, instructing Emily on how to cultivate and fight.
Even though he was currently just an ordinary Sky Knight aside from his Dragon Knight status, he had fought a considerable number of opponents. Especially with the powerful force of the Dragon Dou Qi, he could calmly observe how other Sky Knights fought.
By using a scientific approach to summarize his experiences, he had not only written “The Earth Chronicle of Liszt”; he was now pondering “The Sky Chronicle of Liszt”.
In the realm of knight training, he believed his ideas were far more advanced than the ideas of his time.
Emily was an excellent student—intelligent, resilient, and not given to complaints or idle talk. She always maintained a humble and respectful attitude towards him. Attitude is particularly important; Liszt did not like those who are arrogant due to their talents, nor did he like those who considered themselves geniuses.
The reason he was not fond of Lidun was related to Lidun’s often-displayed attitude that he was a genius—an attitude incompatible with Liszt’s presence, in which no one could claim to be a genius!
“Elite Earth Knights mainly rely on consuming magic potions. Once the Pioneer Mandate is over and we return to our territory, I will provide you with enough Magic Potions. Furthermore, you should diligently study “The Earth Chronicle of Liszt”, which will guide you on how to take potions effectively and break through the constraints of your cells.”
“Yes, my lord!”
“In addition, you must also learn archery. It’s a standard skill for knights. However, my “Multi-Arrow” is not suitable for you. I will choose an archery instructor from among the Elite Earth Knights to teach you other types of archery,” Liszt said. His “Multi-Arrow” relies on the “infinite bullets” cheat provided by the Gemstone Space.
That’s why it can inflict such powerful damage, with each casual shot releasing three arrows. A regular knight wouldn’t have enough arrows in a quiver to execute it many times.
He believed that the creator of the secret manual for “Multi-Arrow” must have had access to a Space Gem; otherwise, they wouldn’t invent such an arrow-consuming archery skill—if one is only satisfied with the realm of Double Arrow, then “Multi-Arrow” is a fine choice, but his expectations for Emily went beyond just being an Elite Earth Knight.
Emily didn’t ask why: “Yes, my lord!”
“Further, if you’re not good at arithmetic, I can help you measure your body’s tolerance and adaptability to Magic Potions. It’s only through scientific consumption that one can minimize expenditure and maximize benefits to break free from the shackles of the earth as soon as possible.”
“Yes, my lord!”
Emily no longer just thanked Liszt with words for his nurturing grace. She had already resolved in her heart that everything about her belonged to Liszt. Simple words of thanks were meaningless. Dedicating herself entirely to Lord Landlord was now her sole focus in life.
…
To the Earl’s regret, the hunting party ultimately lost track of the powerful magical beast, and by nightfall, they had not rediscovered any useful clues.
After a whole day’s journey,
Aside from hunting a number of low-level magical beasts, they captured only one Intermediate Magical Beast—a Spiked Porcupine.
This Spiked Porcupine, with its Thunder Attribute, had formidable offensive power. Liszt forcefully breached its lightning coat with Dragon Dou Qi and then knocked it out alive.
He inquired if the Earl wished to use the Spiked Porcupine as a mount.
Looking at the long, sharp spikes on the back of the Spiked Porcupine, which resembled a Knight’s Spear, the Earl fell into a profound silence. After returning to Trapped Dragon Mountain, the evening feast saw dish after dish of delicious Spiked Porcupine roast served. The Earl picked up a pork rib and crunched it up, bones and all.
“`
“What a pity.”
Liszt said, eating a leg of Spiked Porcupine meat, expressing regret, “In fact, if you remove the spikes on the back of the Spiked Porcupine, it can still be tamed as a mount for riding.”
Of course, it’s pointless to talk about that now. He had to focus on filling his stomach.
Thus, a day passed.
In the blink of an eye, Liszt had been stationed at Trapped Dragon Mountain for five days, and it was time to depart. The Sunset, tasked with transportation, had already sailed up the Roaring River against the current, and Captain Marcus had the Black Horse Island Knights Order tirelessly moving the mass of goods collected to the Sunset.
The elite knights sent by the First Prince had already taken over the defense of Trapped Dragon Mountain. The commander was a Sword Saint, strong enough to uphold the mountain’s defenses in the coming times.
“Viscount Garcia, Viscount Fox, once the knights withdraw from Trapped Dragon Mountain, your letters will be sent out at the same time. Once your families or landlords send someone with your ransom to Iron Hoof Island, you will gain your freedom… As for now, you need to pay a visit to Coral Island.”
“Understood.”
The two Sky Knights responded listlessly; they were followers of Alonso Xiankelai. They didn’t come from major families but from the orphanage of the Xiankelai family and hadn’t been Sky Knights for long. Therefore, apart from one or two Little Minor Elves, they had nothing else.
Liszt had them write letters, primarily to Alonso, asking him to pay the ransom with two ordinary Little Minor Elves per person, or one grain-related or Magic Potion-related Little Minor Elf.
Seizing his iron mines, enlisting his knights, and now demanding a ransom—Liszt would not be lenient with this potential rival in the upcoming dragon-slaying battle.
The Sunset set sail.
The eight Blood Servants also departed, having transported away 500,000 tons of iron ore from Trapped Dragon Mountain, now completely handed over to the knights under the control of the First Prince.
The Earl didn’t follow the Sunset but boarded a Court Fast Sailing Ship provided by Mesiro.
The two stood at the prow of the ship, gazing at distant Trapped Dragon Mountain, sharing their sentiments. Mesiro said, “Leaving now, most of the remaining military exploits will be consumed by the many noble landlords, which is quite a pity indeed.”
Li Weiliam smiled, “The military exploits that are mine cannot be taken away by anyone.”
“Indeed, with Liszt’s formidable power as a Ghost Swordsman Inheritor, he is more than capable of safeguarding the share of military exploits belonging to Coral Island. However, at such a young age, Liszt has helped you achieve such splendid results. After returning to our country, I fear a whole host of nobles will be driven mad with envy.”
“Only those who are superior to others invite envy. My second son, Liszt, is destined to become the cornerstone of Sapphire. They envy him now, but in a few more years, they will change their mindset—because Liszt will make them understand that envy cannot destroy a genius.”
“That’s true.”
Mesiro, resting his hands on the railing, said, “If Liszt were still weak, obtaining the Ghost Swordsman Inheritance would not be a good thing. But he has grown strong enough to protect himself. Even a Grand Duke must pay him the utmost attention… Perhaps in a few years, he will join you and me in ascending to the rank of Marquis.”
The Earl, with hands clasped behind his back, spoke in a nonchalant tone, “Let’s see how he develops.”
