Chapter 2

Translator: Henyee

However, on the way back, he encountered misfortune.

When he passed by a forest in the wilderness, he was ambushed by a Class 2 magical beast—the White-Headed Eagle.

After a fierce battle with the White-Headed Eagle, both of them had suffered heavy losses. The White-Headed Eagle’s wings were stained with blood as it fled in a sorry state. However, he had been poisoned by the other party’s special strange poison and was constantly invading his life force.

Speaking of which, the White-Headed Eagle’s close combat ability was not outstanding, nor did it have any long-range attacks. The greatest threat was the White-Headed Eagle Poison. This poison was hidden deep in the body and was extremely difficult to remove.

Although this poison was not incurable, he was just a new noble who had just retired from the front line. Be it connections or resources, he could not compare to the other nobles in the vicinity who had been in business for a long time and had even been passed down for generations.

As a result, although he had a small amount of savings, no noble was willing to sell him the antidote.

A few days ago, there was even a noble who came to visit and said that he had to exchange this territory for the antidote. Naturally, he was unwilling. However, the other party was the eldest son of a third-rank viscount knight. Considering the current situation, it was not wise to offend him.

Therefore, he did not dare to flare up and could only remember this debt in his heart.

“Sigh, I’ve embarrassed the transmigrators!” Reiter sighed silently in his heart. He had thought that after becoming a noble, he would be able to go further if he carefully operated and planned in the future.

However, just as he saw a glimmer of hope, he was drowned by endless darkness.

“If I had a goldfinger when I transmigrated back then, my achievements would definitely be higher than now, right?” Reiter thought.

Coupled with his life experiences, he had been wandering all the way, but he still fought hard. In the end, he still could not control his own fate. He could not help but feel sad and unfair.

Why did the other protagonists have it but not him?

“Waah, waah!”

A baby’s cry affected his thoughts. The negative energy that had just surfaced in Reiter gradually calmed down. After all, he had lived two lives. To him, controlling his emotions was already a very basic ability.

This cry attracted his attention even more.

“Vanessa’s pregnancy is almost ten months. She might give birth in a few days. I didn’t expect the baby to arrive at this time!” Reiter nodded thoughtfully.

Due to his illness, no one in the castle could approach this floor except his three sons and the butler. Therefore, no one came up to inform him that Vanessa was about to give birth, so he naturally realized it later.

As the eldest son of his eldest son, the first grandson he had in his life was born at this moment, bringing a ray of light to Reiter, who had been tortured by illness and was in a haze.

As the footsteps upstairs and the baby’s cries got closer, Reiter’s eyes were filled with anticipation.

At this moment, a white light appeared in front of him and quickly condensed into a panel.

The impact of this mutation was no less than the joy of having a grandchild. Reiter froze in his chair and carefully read the information on the interface.

[Founding a family, three generations in the same house. Meeting the conditions for activating the family simulator.]

[Clan Population +1, Destiny +10]

“Whoa, so I also have a golden finger! Three generations living in the same house is the condition to activate it. Why didn’t you say so earlier!” Reiter regretted it now. If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have even gone to the front line. He would have stayed at home to make babies and strive to have a grandson as soon as possible!

However, it was not too late. He hurriedly looked down. This seemed to be the system interface.

[Patriarch: Reiter Green]

[Second generation members: Tucker Green, Rylei Green, Thales Green]

[Third generation members: ?]

[Word Simulation]

[Real Simulation]

[Destiny Points: 75]

The very simple panel gave Reiter a sense of comfort.

The question mark behind the third generation members should be his grandson. The question mark meant that he was not given a name yet.

A look of interest appeared on Reiter’s face. With his previous life’s experience, it was not difficult to guess that the biggest use of the interface seemed to be on [Word Simulation] and [Real Simulation].

From this, it could be inferred that the Destiny Points might be something used for consumption. Before he could explore the functions of the system, Tucker came up with his eldest grandson in his arms with a loving expression.

He slowly walked forward, and Rylei and Thales also went over in surprise.

“I didn’t expect Vanessa to give birth tonight. Congratulations.”

“This little guy is so cute. Not only does he look like Big Brother, but he also has the charm of Father.”

After being watched and commented on by Rylei and Thales, Tucker carefully walked up to Reiter. He was in an excited but tightly suppressed state. He said in a low voice, “Father, please give him a name.”

Perhaps Tucker’s physique was naturally stronger than that of ordinary people, so his offspring also inherited this trait. He was held in Reiter’s arms through a layer of blankets, swaying gently.

Gradually, his grandson, who was still crying, fell asleep.

Looking at his newborn grandson’s rosy face, Reiter resisted the urge to go up and touch him, afraid that he would hurt him if he did not control his strength well.

“I’ve already thought of a name. Let’s call it Dick.” Reiter sent Dick back into Tucker’s arms with a smile. He took two steps back and sat down again. He waved his hand and said, “All of you can leave. I’m a little tired. I want to be alone.”

Upon hearing this, Tucker, Rylei, and Thales’ expressions turned solemn. The three of them agreed in unison and went downstairs. With the departure of his three sons, the hall on the fifth floor of the Deep Rock Castle became quiet again.

Reiter first took a deep breath and took a sip of water from the teacup beside him. He opened the system again. As soon as his thoughts stopped at the [Word Simulation] section, a notification immediately appeared in front of him.

[Do you want to start the Word Simulation? For every year of simulation, 5 Destiny Points will be consumed.]

When he saw this notification, although Reiter was curious, he suppressed the urge to give it a try and chose no. Then, his mind stopped at [Real Simulation], wanting to figure out the difference. Then, he saw the corresponding notification:

[Do you want to start the Real Simulation? For every day of simulation, 1 Destiny Point will be consumed.]

The two simulation methods were not difficult to understand, but the consumption of [Real Simulation] was one Destiny Point per day. Wouldn’t it be more than 300 in a year?

This sudden increase in consumption surprised Reiter.

Why did the consumption of [Real Simulation] suddenly become so terrifying?

Reiter felt that there must be some kind of secret hidden in it. Then, he focused his attention on the last column of [Destiny Points]. With a thought, a line of explanation popped up.

[Destiny Point Obtainment Method: Cross-Level Killing +1, Strength Advancement +5, Sub-Class Advancement +5, New Population +10]

“I see. The initial 75 points seemed to be 40 points from the three sons and one grandson. At present, I have also undergone three advancements as an Apprentice Mage, a Grade 1 Mage, and a Grade 2 Mage. In addition to the number of advancements that Tucker and Rylei have undergone, the total number of advancements added up to a total of 35 points.” Reiter did some calculations and understood everything.

Then, an amused expression appeared on his face.

After deliberating for a moment, he planned to try [Word Simulation] first. Currently, he still has 75 Destiny Points. He had to figure out the specific use of his cheat and what help it could give him.

Right now, he urgently needs to resolve his physical problems. He did not know if he could find a turning point in the family simulator.

[Do you want to start the Word Simulation? For every year of simulation, 5 Destiny Points will be consumed.]

He decisively chose “Yes, simulate it for a year!”

Immediately after, the light screen in front of him instantly changed, and notification boxes refreshed.

[Jinlun Calendar Year 473, November 7th, your grandson Dick was born.]

[November 10th, Thales decided to set off with the town’s caravan and leave Young Eagle Town.]

[November 15th, Thales snuck away halfway and headed to the Nugget Town alone to visit Lilice.]

[November 16th, Thales met up with Lilice. Lilice was so surprised that she asked Thales to stay the night.]

[November 25th, Thales returned. He brought you a small bottle of medicine to alleviate your injuries. However, it only treats the symptoms but not the root cause. You can only last for another two years.]

[December 7th, on an extremely cold night, a strong wind blew. The ranch houses in your town collapsed, freezing most of the cows to death.]

[Jinlun Calendar Year 474, January 3rd, a Class 2 Iron-Horned Sheep and a Class 2 Flame Hound engaged in a fierce battle beside the Sun Lake on the west side of your territory. In the end, both sides suffered heavy losses and were picked up by a Class 1 Wind Wolf passing by.]

[On January 8th, a traveling merchant came to your territory. You asked him if he had any items or methods to treat the White-Headed Eagle Poison. The other party said that he did not have any related items.]

[On January 9th, the traveling merchant was chased by a Class 2 Wind Wolf. He fled to your castle in a sorry state. As you were worried that the casualties would spread, you had no choice but to lend a hand. With the help of Tucker and Rylei, you joined forces with the traveling merchant to repel the Wind Wolf. Afterwards, the traveling merchant suggested hunting down this Wind Wolf. The materials on its body are very valuable, so you agreed.]

[On January 10th, after searching, you found the nest of the Class 2 Wind Wolf in the west of the Thorn Forest. The strength of the Wind Wolf had once again exceeded your expectations. Although the final result was a victory, your two sons were unfortunately sacrificed. After searching, you found a legacy left behind by a Grade 5 Magister in the nest of the Wind Wolf. You suggested that the two of you split it equally, but was rejected by the traveling merchant. Then, the traveling merchant saw the money and ambushed you. You died.]
