Chapter 7

Translator: Henyee

Rylei, who was sitting next to Tucker, was so shocked by his thunderous laughter that his ears went numb. He rolled his eyes and moved to the left. “I’ll stay away from you.”

Rylei must have been genuinely happy with his father’s sudden good news.

Although the reason given by his father, “the antidote left behind by his grandfather”, seemed a little abrupt to him, Rylei’s expression did not change at all. He knew very well that there were some things that he should not speculate about.

Regardless of whether there was evidence or clues, he should take advantage of this situation to make the news more true.

And so, Rylei knew what to do next. He said unhurriedly, “Well, in my opinion, the antidote left behind by Grandfather is just right. If it was placed in a conspicuous place from the beginning and Father discovered it early, the corresponding mental defense would inevitably waver. Perhaps he would have used the antidote elsewhere long ago? Or perhaps he would have exchanged it with someone else? But it’s only discovered now, it’s more like Grandfather’s protection.”

In the festive atmosphere, no one delved deeper into this cover.

Svieta, who was watching from the side, nodded to himself. He even felt that Rylei’s analysis was very meticulous. Ever since he was born, he was born into the Green family and thus witnessed the birth and growth of the three little fellows.

He had long discovered that since he was young, Rylei had displayed intelligence that exceeded his peers. He usually had a deeper understanding of problems.

Svieta stole another glance at the family head and nodded to himself. Yes, Rylei had undoubtedly inherited his master’s wisdom.

As for Thales, he was shocked by his father’s recovery. A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, and then he was surrounded by happiness!

Oh yay, no need to go find that fat cannibal!

As a result, Thales’ psychological trauma was greatly dispelled. He raised his head with a faint smile on his lips and said, “Congratulations, Father!” This congratulation was quite sincere. Then, Thales shouted towards the passageway, “Maru, I need another glass of milk!”

Thales’ face was brimming with joy. Compared to the embarrassment, panic, and redness just now, he seemed to have become a different person.

Reiter chuckled and shook his head. He knew his personality very well, so he didn’t want to expose his thoughts.

Moreover, how he found out about these things was also a problem in the eyes of others. The simulator had now become his greatest secret. He could not take risks casually.

Hearing the young master’s call, a middle-aged woman with a slightly thick waist rushed over from the passageway. She was wearing a white apron, but there were some oil stains on it.

Her face was simple and gentle. When she smiled, her eyes narrowed into slits. She placed the new tray on the dining table steadily and said in a casual tone, “There’s a lot more milk this morning than usual. It’s especially fresh. Looks like I need to prepare a batch of cheese. I can’t let it spoil!”

Her daily words did not attract much attention.

On the other hand, Reiter’s heart skipped a beat. He thought of a small accident on the 7th of next month, which was at the beginning of the month. It seemed that there would be an even more violent cooling down, accompanied by a strong wind.

Not only did this cold wind blow over his cowshed, but it also caused more than half of the cows in his ranch to die.

“Oh, this is bad news.” Reiter’s eyes revealed his thoughts.

In this Young Eagle Town, he was the lord who kept his word.

Although he was only a minor lord, he still had absolute authority and ruling power. Everything in the town was his private property. Whether it was the civilians, the lumber yard in the east, the grassland in the north, and so on, the ownership was in his hands.

Usually, it was only entrusted to the commoners in the territory to manage.

Therefore, if the cows were severely damaged, it would affect Reiter’s interests. The number of cows in the ranch had always been more than a hundred, and there were also some beef cattle mixed in.

If there were too many casualties, it would be a waste of money and time to buy them from other places in the future.

After some thought, Reiter made a decision. He glanced at Svieta and said in a casual tone, “Svieta, when was the last time the ranch was renovated?”

Svieta bent down slightly and recalled for a moment before saying, “The last time we renovated the ranch was in the year 467 of the Jinlun Calendar, from June 3rd to June 10th. It has been more than five years.”

“Hmm… So it’s been five years. I have an idea. Why don’t we renovate the ranch again?” Reiter said. Although it was a question, the meaning behind it was obvious.

“There’s not a problem, my lord. We have abundant wood resources here. I’ll go look for Kurtin now and ask him to organize people to start the renovation of the ranch.” Svieta agreed. Since the lord had an idea, he must have his reasons. He added, “The weather this winter is a little abnormal. Should we renovate the other houses?”

It was a very normal suggestion, but Svieta didn’t know about Reiter’s secret, so his worry was unnecessary. Reiter waved his hand and rejected this suggestion. He explained, “No need. If there’s anything, I’ll give the order.”

“Understood.” Svieta nodded and retreated.

At this moment, Reiter suddenly had an idea. He opened the system and chose the Word Simulation. Now that he had recovered, and had made some adjustments to his territory, he wanted to see what would happen in the future after this series of changes.

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

“Yes, for a year.”

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

[November 10th. Considering that this winter’s extremely cold weather might cause trouble for your territory, you ordered your subordinates to renovate the grassland.]

[November 11th, the news of your recovery spread throughout the territory. The commoners of Young Eagle Town cheered. That night, Lawrence, who was a reserve guard, was excited and comprehended something. He broke through to become an Apprentice Knight.]

[December 7th, on an extremely cold night, a strong wind blew. Two seriously injured Grade 1 Knights landed in your territory. After asking the residents of the territory, they found out that you were a Grade 2 Mage, so they joined you.]

[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. You had been lying in ambush nearby for a long time and finally reaped the benefits.]

[On January 8th, a traveling merchant came to your territory. You said a few polite words and sent him away.]

[On January 15th, because the caravan leaked the news of your recovery, Roy of Maple Forest Town came to visit you and gave you a bottle of Red Maple Potion. He even proposed to arrange a marriage for your two families, but you rejected him.]

[March 20th, Rylei broke through to late-stage Grade 1 Mage.]

[June 29th, Tucker broke through to late-stage Grade 1 Knight.]

[July 12th, you were ambushed by an unidentified knight. You severely injured him and he fled.]

[August 9th, a Class 3 Thunder Armor Bear wandered into your territory and began to destroy everything. You fought back and unfortunately died.]
