From Baron to Lord

Starting as a Baron to Become a Lord Author: Salty Fish Baron

Allen transmigrated to a continent of swords and magic, becoming the second son of an Earl. Without the right of inheritance as the eldest son, and with a talent for cultivation that was trash, Allen was ostracized by the family and arranged to be a country baron in the countryside.

Fortunately, he activated the Strongest Lord System, where developing his territory and completing tasks could earn him experience to level up! He could also unlock all kinds of powerful species!

"Ding, congratulations to the host for unlocking the Dragon! Reward: one Dragon Egg!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host for unlocking the Behemoth! Reward: ten Behemoths!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host for unlocking the Angel! Reward: ten Angels!"

"Ding, congratulations to the host for unlocking God…"

From then on, a lord that the world feared appeared. In his territory, there were humans, dragons, orcs, giants, behemoths, and even angels and lofty gods!

Allen glanced at the kings of those empires and kingdoms sitting in front of him and said: "I only want to conquer everything."

Wearing a gorgeous silk robe, with a slightly pale face, Allen sat in a carriage. The carriage was spacious enough, with soft cushions inside.

Outside the carriage were twenty well-equipped warriors walking around the carriage. They were tall and burly, wearing fine leather armor, with swords in their hands.

At the very front of the carriage was a knight wearing knight armor, riding a warhorse.

Behind the carriage were four or five material carriages, loaded with various items, food, clothing, supplies, and so on.

Surrounding them was a small group composed of maids and male servants, led by an old butler dressed meticulously.

"In the end, I'm leaving the home where I've lived for sixteen years. I wonder what kind of territory the Earl will give me."

Allen's slightly immature face showed some helplessness and self-deprecation.

Sixteen years ago, he transmigrated to this world, becoming the second son of the current patriarch of the Thistle Flower family, Earl Albert.

This is a world of swords and magic, where nobles can cultivate battle qi and magic, becoming powerful beings beyond mortals.

Powerful and cool knights, mysterious and dazzling mages.

These professions were what Allen yearned for the most.

Unfortunately, as the Earl's second son, he possessed decent battle qi manuals, had enough financial resources to support his cultivation, and even had a father who was an eighth-level knight as his instructor.

However, after cultivating battle qi for ten years, Allen still only possessed weak introductory battle qi.

As a child of a large family, Allen's aptitude could be said to be extremely trash.

Everyone even thought that a waste like Allen would probably never become a knight in his life, unable to charge into battle or establish merit.

Thistle Flower Earl Albert even brought in a noble mage, hoping that Allen would have magical talent.

The result was obvious: Allen did not have any magical talent.

A noble son who could not become a knight or a mage, Allen was no longer cultivated by the family after the age of ten.

Now at the age of sixteen, he had come of age and was directly enfeoffed by Thistle Flower Earl, becoming a vassal baron of Thistle Flower Earl, with his territory in the farthest part of the Earldom, called Rose Town.

Hopefully, it's a good place.

Allen sighed, feeling worried about his future.

Obviously, the Earl had completely given up on him and sent him away.

Ever since his mother passed away, the Earl had become increasingly indifferent to him.

Allen thought to himself.

The team had been traveling for most of the day, and it was estimated that they would reach his territory around noon tomorrow.

Time passed quickly. With the protection of a powerful knight and twenty brave warriors, Allen arrived at his territory smoothly.

Soon, he was disappointed.

As the territory at the very edge of the Earldom, Rose Town was clearly not as beautiful as its name suggested.

It was surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the only side without mountains faced the largest inland sea in the entire Duchy.

The only road in and out of Rose Town was the rugged mountain road that Allen had taken.

The people here were all sallow and emaciated, wearing tattered clothes, looking curiously at the luxurious carriage engraved with the Thistle Flower family crest.

They knew that the one sitting inside was their lord.

"Oh, Allen, look at this desolate place, there's nothing here. Damn it, can we really live here?"

The finance officer, Sparrow, rode his horse to Allen's carriage window, complaining.

This middle-aged finance officer with a small mustache was Earl Albert's assistant assigned to Allen, but now this finance officer's face was not very good.

He had seen many barren fields along the way, muddy paths, sallow-faced civilians, and the poverty here.

This made him extremely dissatisfied. There was no opportunity to make a fortune here at all, and he even suspected that he would starve to death.

Without him saying it, Allen also understood the seriousness of the matter. He had originally thought that the Earl would at least give him a decent fief so that he could live a stable and prosperous life.

He didn't expect Rose Town to be such a poor place.

Soon, the carriage arrived at the place where the lord of Rose Town lived, a dilapidated small castle with two floors.

"Damn it, what was the previous lord doing here! Can people really live in such a dilapidated place?"

The old butler, Edward, also looked ugly. Compared to Sparrow's forced follow, Edward took the initiative to come here with Allen.

Edward was the butler who had followed Allen's mother before, and can be said to have watched Allen grow up.

He was extremely loyal and caring to Allen.

"Forget it, Grandpa Edward, it's good to have a place to live. Let the servants clean up this place. Move everything in. Hopefully, it won't rain recently, otherwise, I don't know how many places here will leak."

Allen said with a wry smile.

Edward sighed, looking affectionately at the handsome young man in front of him: "Okay, Baron, I'll go and instruct them."

Soon, under the instructions and command of the butler Edward, more than twenty servants began to disturb the castle quickly, putting the materials given by the Earl into the castle.

After two hours, the castle was barely cleaned up. On the first floor, besides the reception hall, there was only the kitchen and dining room at the back.

The second floor had some rooms, a study, and so on.

After working for an afternoon, everyone was tired. Allen had people prepare dinner.

The sumptuous dinner cheered Allen up a bit. After the servants prepared hot water, Allen took a comfortable hot bath after dinner.

After taking a bath, Allen did not immediately go to sleep, but stared at a slightly strange jade stone in front of him.

"My lord, this was found in the storage room. Also, don't stay in the study for too long."

Edward said.

Allen nodded slightly: "Okay, I know. I'll read a book and go to sleep."

Edward bowed slightly and slowly left the study.

After he left, Allen picked up the strange stone.

"Jade? Or a magical material?"

Allen muttered to himself, and just as he spoke, his finger had gently touched the stone.

Suddenly, Allen felt as if a powerful suction force had suddenly appeared in his body, directly sucking away some kind of power contained in the stone.

At the same time, a voice appeared in his mind.

"Ding! Discovered the power of the Dragon, activating the Strongest Lord System, starting to bind the system!"

"Ding! System binding successful! Activating legendary creature species, Dragon species!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host, the system rewards one Dragon Egg!"

"Ding! Starting to issue missions!"

Allen only felt a blur in front of him, and soon a light blue interface appeared in front of him.

Host: Allen

Level: 0

Territory: Rose Town

Population: 846

Experience: 0 / 100

Mission: Inspect the territory!

Reward: 100 experience points, a Rose Spirit.

The light blue interface was extremely concise, but it made Allen excited in an instant.

System!

It's actually a system! I've been transmigrated for sixteen years, has my golden finger finally arrived?

Allen looked delighted.

He took a deep breath, suppressed his mood a little, and then looked down at the desk in front of him, a blue dragon egg the size of a washbasin, covered in dragon scales.

This… This is a dragon egg.

Even if Allen's strength was trash, he could feel the vigorous vitality in this blue dragon egg.

"I can actually have a dragon!"

Allen couldn't believe it, and his mood became excited again.

Dragons are the most supreme and honorable creatures on the entire continent!

Throughout the continent, for all countries wanting to establish a nation, the first condition is to have a Dragon Knight stationed.
