Extraordinary Earl

Chapter 2 Looking to the Future
"Okay, okay, Mr. Knight. Since the age of eight, little Luther has received strict knight education. He eats, trains, and attends cultural classes on time every day. It's okay to be out of order once in a while."

Madam Sophie hastened to smooth things over.

This lady is very young, only 28 years old this year.She has a beautiful face, a good figure, and a gentle personality.

He also treats Luther as his own, and Saul is satisfied in every way.The only thing that makes the male owner complain a bit is that the wife is a merchant, not an aristocrat.

This makes the male host a little grudge.

"You know how to spoil him." Sol showed his dissatisfaction, but his face eased a lot.In fact, Sol also remembered that when he was young, under his father's training, he had a harder life than Luther, but in the end he successfully inspired the power of the knight and inherited the Pompeii collar.

He also has high hopes for Luther, hoping that Luther will become a knight like him in the future, or even surpass him.

But just like what his wife said, Luther has been training knights since he was eight years old. Apart from some necessary social interactions, he is like a machine and has never let up for a moment.

So Sol's heart softened, and after thinking about it, Sol said to Luther again: "Today is a day off, let's go and have fun."

"Thank you, Dad." Ludben lowered his head, intending to pretend to be dead and listen to Sol's reprimand, but he didn't expect that there would be a day off, so he raised his head in surprise, and quickly expressed his thanks.

It's nothing to take a day off. He was mediocre in his previous life, and he came to this world in this life just to show his strengths. He doesn't reject knight training, and is even eager to try it.

But after all, I have just traveled here. Although I have received the memory, some places still need to be adjusted. It is very good to have a day to walk around.

"Okay, let's eat." Saul, Pompeii nodded, and then said something seriously.

Following the order of the host, the family immediately began to eat.The main meal is of course meat, with some vegetable soup.Whether it was Luther or the younger Will, Mary cut the beef very quickly and sharply, eating it with big mouthfuls.

This is the Pompeii family, even eating is like being in a military camp.

After breakfast, Sol went out and brought his guards with him. Today he has something to do.Sophie stayed in the castle to deal with some trivial matters. She was a capable noble lady.

Will and Mary will take culture classes together, and in the afternoon, nine-year-old Will will have knight training.

Luther was ordered to rest and play, so of course he went out to play.

The castle of Pompeii's family is a small castle, roughly round in shape and black all over.The back position is the main building, and there are two rows of barracks on the left and right sides in front of the main building.

Others include stables, school grounds and other facilities.

The outer body is the wall.

There are one hundred soldiers in the castle, which is the military force of Pompey's family.

"Master Luther." Luther came out of the main building, and there were two guards in front of the gate. Because there were no major affairs in the territory at present, the atmosphere was relatively relaxed, and the two guards were chatting from time to time.Seeing Luther coming out, the two quickly saluted.

"Thank you." Luther comforted the two guards based on his own performance in memory.

The two guards were a little embarrassed. They were still chatting just now, but it was not considered as devotion to their duties.

Luther quickly passed the two guards and wandered around the castle.Along the way, the soldiers and servants in the castle saluted Luther one after another, allowing Luther to enjoy the same treatment as a rich landlord.

In the end, Luther came to the city wall above the city gate, overlooking the entire Pompeii territory from here.

Gradually overlap with the memory in my own brain.

Luther was leaned against the female wall, with his hands folded in front of his chest, his eyes gradually fascinated.He began to think about his future.

This world is undoubtedly very exciting, and his background is not bad, at least he has stepped into the threshold of nobility.There are no conflicts in the family, a strong father and a gentle stepmother.

Even if things don't go well in the future, he can inherit this territory and become a rich landlord.But since he is a wearer, it is really not reconciled to eat and wait to die.

If you use the entire Kingdom of Prussia as your goal, even if you can't be a hereditary duke or marquis, you should at least be a field earl.

You have to look forward to being a human being.

As far as Luther knew, it was very difficult to rise to the title of the Kingdom of Prussia.The first thing is to have blood. In the entire Kingdom of Prussia, although it is not easy for a child of a commoner to become a knight, there are also examples of inspiring the power of a knight to become a knight. Not just a single example, there are many.

But if the children of these common people want to become a knight lord with a fief, it is basically like ascending to the sky, and it is very difficult.

The nobility rejected the common people.

Because blood is supreme in the Kingdom of Prussia, the more noble the blood, the more glorious it will be.

In this regard, although the Pompeii family had a low starting point, they still had a bit of noble blood.The House of Pompeii was an offshoot of an ancient earl's house.

Although the starting point is low, there is always hope for progress.

And whether he can climb up and become a nobleman who is at least an earl.Then there are only two ways, one is force and the other is financial resources.

With outstanding military strength, you will have matching military exploits.

With huge financial resources, you have connections.

These two things are the hard currency of the Kingdom of Prussia, and they can eventually rely on operations to climb up step by step.

But it is a pity that the Pompeii family, to be precise, Luther himself has neither of these two paths.

Needless to say about financial resources, the Pompeii family only has one knight leader, and there is no other income.As for outstanding force, Luther knew that he was not mediocre, but he was not outstanding either.

The so-called knight's power is to stimulate the potential of the human body, and finally form a fighting spirit.

Luther has been training knights since he was eight years old, and has a physique far beyond ordinary people.I'm 15 years old this year, and I haven't inspired the power of a knight yet.

According to his father Thor's evaluation, he should be able to inspire fighting spirit at the age of 16.

And the average age of a knight in this world is 17 years old. Luther heard that there are some geniuses who can inspire fighting spirit at the age of thirteen or fourteen.In other words, his aptitude is above average, but definitely not outstanding.

"If you want to climb up, if you want to live better in this world. Superior force is a must, and you have to think of a way."

Luther thought secretly.

But after thinking about it, Luther had no idea at all.

It should be because his vision is too narrow. After all, he was only a 15-year-old boy in his life, and he basically spent it in training.

It seems that this matter still needs a long-term plan.
