A Different World That Started as a Slave

The sun was shining brightly.

The sun was blazing in the sky.

Although it was already the late hot season, the afternoon sun was still very hot.

Even without direct sunlight, the sultry air was still like a steamer, boiling the creatures on the ground.

General Abo stood in the shaded pavilion outside the square. Because of the heat, the hot sweat on his forehead slid down his cheeks and dripped onto the ground.

Even though several maids were fanning him with fans, they seemed unable to take away the heat from him.

In contrast, the instructor who was in the pavilion with General Abo showed no signs of being heated.

Although wearing a tightly wrapped uniform, the instructor's body showed no signs of sweat.

"The knight's body is really strong. Don't you feel anything in such hot weather?"

General Abo said to the instructor beside him with some envy.

"Perhaps the general can try to exercise, or travel to some special places... Then you will find that the weather is not that hot."

The instructor retracted his gaze from the square, looked back at General Abo, and said calmly.

"Really? It seems that I really need to see the scenery of other places when I have time."

General Abo smiled perfunctorily.

"Let's not talk about this. Has Knight Reina ever thought about returning to the city to serve?"

"The conditions in the inner city are much better than here... For example, if you are in the inner city now, there are cooling alchemy devices almost everywhere, and at least there are cold drinks to relieve the heat."

"And there are fine wines, beautiful women, and all kinds of entertainment. It's much more interesting than standing here and watching these low-class people train."

"Is Knight Reina interested in becoming the head coach of the Kara City garrison?"

"Whether it's money or women, I can give you whatever you want."

"And, although you are the head coach, you don't actually need to do anything. You just need to enjoy yourself in the inner city."

General Abo said to the instructor.

For General Abo, he thought that the conditions he gave were very good.

His life experience told him-

People are born to enjoy themselves. Whether they are low-class people or nobles, they are constantly pursuing higher enjoyment; and power, money, and beautiful women are the greatest manifestations of enjoyment.

Regarding General Abo's words of winning over, the instructor stared at him with a look of a fool.

Doesn't this person investigate the other party's situation before winning over others?

Doesn't he know that the main reason why the family arranged him here?

It is to continuously train private soldiers for the Glenbagen family.

Does he want to cut off the family's source of private soldiers to weaken the power of the Glenbagen family?

Do you really think that your current duties are not important and you can just find someone to replace them?

"No, thank you for the general's appreciation. I still have to complete the duties assigned to me by the family, so it is inconvenient for me to take on other positions."

The instructor refused.

Although he had a lot of thoughts in his mind, the instructor did not directly call him a fool considering General Abo's identity.

"Haha... Haha, indeed, the duties of the family are more important... It's okay, if the knight is interested in the future, remember to inform me early."

"I have almost seen the square here. If there is nothing special, I will go to other places."

General Abo's face turned ugly, and he responded to the instructor with a forced smile.

He didn't expect the instructor to refuse so straightforwardly, and even used the family as an excuse.

It seems that he looks down on him!

He thinks that his status in the family is not enough, and that he can't give what he wants, so he refuses without thinking.

General Abo turned and left the square, with a ferocious face, gnashing his teeth and thinking in his heart.

The instructor watched him leave again, just like the scene in the living room before, without saying anything to keep him.

His eyes returned to the training in the square again, and those were the duties he needed to care about.

...

At night, the house where guests were entertained was brightly lit.

Although the instructor didn't want to communicate with a brainless guy like General Abo again.

But according to basic etiquette, the instructor still arranged this farewell banquet.

However, this was not arranged by the instructor specifically for Abo Grunbagen.

It was a farewell banquet for every visitor from the Grunbagen family who came to the training camp.

At the banquet, General Abo sat in the first seat, with Renakin and

Marvin.

In terms of nominal status, Abo Grunbagen, the eldest son of the earl, is still higher than the two in the training camp.

Yes, the instructor pulled Marvin over as well.

He knew that his two actions might have offended Abo Grunbagen.

Although he didn't care much, in order to keep the banquet going, the instructor still pulled Marvin over to ease the atmosphere.

However, although the instructor thought General Abo was a fool.

But after all, he had been in the aristocratic circle for many years, and he still had some scheming. At least he didn't show any face directly at the banquet.

The banquet was held in the living room. The table was filled with all kinds of exquisite food and wine, and there were candles as embellishments next to it. The lighting was just right for the atmosphere.

"Uncle Marvin, are you comfortable here?"

After taking a sip of the wine in the glass, General Abo asked Marvin.

Because he had experienced failure with the instructor, he was unwilling to set his sights on Marvin.

"Well, it's pretty good. I'm very satisfied with my current life. I feel honored to be able to make some contributions to the family at an old age."

In previous years, the examiners in the family would greet Marvin politely at the banquet.

So Marvin's greeting to Abo Grunbagen was also a formulaic answer.

General Abo was very dissatisfied with Marvin's formulaic answer, so he continued to ask:

"Uncle, I can arrange for you to return to the inner city. Do you want to..."

"No, I'm really fine here. I don't need to go back to the inner city."

When Marvin heard "return to the inner city", he refused directly before General Abo finished speaking.

He still had his experiments, and he hadn't completed his obsession yet. How could he want to return to the inner city.

"Pah!"

General Abo slapped the table with his right hand, causing some food on the table to shake a few times, and some soup splashed out of the plate.

"Okay... okay, okay, you two all look down on me, right?"

"Okay... you wait for me."

General Abo pointed back and forth between the instructor and Marvin, suppressing anger on his face.

After that, he stood up and left the living room.

"This is..."

Marvin was a little confused. He didn't know how his answer angered General Abo.

He answered in the same way in previous years, so why didn't anyone get angry?

"It's not your problem... But I called you here to ease the atmosphere, but I didn't expect to directly ignite his emotions."

The instructor explained to Marvin speechlessly.

"Let him go, we'll eat first. If we can't finish it, let the person on duty deal with the rest."

"It's a pity to throw away a table of good wine and food."

The instructor continued.

Hearing this, Marvin didn't bother to care about Abo Grunbagen who left.

At his age now, he no longer cares about the ways of the world. His only wish is to complete his obsession.

The next day, early in the morning.

Abo Grunbagen left the training camp in his BMW carriage.

"When I inherit the title, I will make you know that bullying me is the most regrettable thing you have ever done in your life."

"Wait, this day... is not far away."

Abo Grunbagen thought bitterly while sitting in the carriage.
