421 Loyalty Servant System

[Vincent. I think it would be best to take Grace to our home as soon as possible.]

-Yeah, I also think it will be better to use Minor Heal as well. It has been a week now, and her condition stabilized with Iris’s medicine.-

[I suggest that there is no need since her condition isn’t severe.]

-Really?-

[Yes. Vincent, it looks like you forgot how a few of the medical returner hero trope stories mentioned how the environment a patient is resting in matters. But I guess you are the kind of guy that reads a story for the action bits.]

-... Ahem-

-This is a bad environment for someone like Grace, who is prone to sickness. Kazumi, I will do as you suggested and save twenty Soul Power for another time.-

Vincent looked at Phil and said, “We need to transport your sister to my mansion. She can recover in a place that will not make her sick.”

Vincent approached the wall and touched it.

.....

“Is it the humidity, or is this from the last time it rained? Even if it is hot, the wood is slightly damp to the touch. Just what kind of wood is this? ” Vincent asked.

“This house was made with smoked dampwood. It is the cheapest wood to make a house of, and it can keep the house cooler in summer. But we have to cover the walls with fabric to keep the heat contained in the winter.” Phil explained why the wood was damp even at the end of the summer and without raining for a couple of weeks.

Vincent looked at Grace and informed Phil, “I have the skill to see basic stats like the very rare mages can. Your sister, Grace, has a negative trait called Weak Immune System. She can’t recover because this environment is a nightmare for someone like her.”

*Thud* Phil dropped to his knees upon hearing how Vincent had a rare skill. He bowed his head and begged, ” Lord Vincent. Please let my sister stay in your lordship’s esteemed property. She can even work if only she could...”



???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

“Of course, Grace can stay and work easy jobs based on her condition while being given medicine when needed.” Vincent interrupted. He looked at Phil with a serious expression and continued, “But the two of you will need to accept one condition to have my help.”

“A-a-anything that isn’t dangerous, my lord. I accept.” Phil said unhesitantly.

“Loyalty is the condition. I like all races and hate slavery, so I don’t want anyone to know who lives inside and if they are slaves or not. But be reassured that your sister will be in...”

Phil suddenly grabbed his sword and offered it to Vincent whiled, saying, “I, Phil, willingly vow to serve Vincent Lionheart in this life with all I have. I will be the blade to protect, to vanquish his foes, or be cast aside when danger befalls.”

.

[Notice]

[The host is being affected by promise-like energy.]

[Does the host want to mutate the energy at the cost of 200SP?]

[Accept] [Cancel]

.

‘Phil swears to be my blade and live to serve me. His emotions of dedication have even affected my soul enough to trigger the mysterious system helping me.’ Vincent thought. His eyes quickly glanced at his wives, and his needs answered his question.

“Phil. I accept to have someone loyal have my back and protect my family.” Vincent said while accepting his sword.

A light breeze flew in the room, and it swirled around both Vincent and Phil. Ganni and Maria rushed inside. Maria said, “I felt an energy I never felt before, so I came to check.” while Ganni asked, “Phil, are you doing the Pledge Of Eternal Loyalty?”

Both Vincent and Phil’s eyes shone green for a moment. A notification window appeared after the glow faded.

.

.

Vincent gave Phil his sword and extended his hand. “Phil, you are one of us now.” He said while helping Phil stand up.

“Thank you, my lord. ” Phil answered with a smile.

Vincent peeked at Phil’s status window to check if the system added a new value only visible to his eyes, and as he hoped, a new value appeared.

However, nothing else changed other than the new [Loyal Servant] appearing in the same place as [Soul Synch]

.

[Name] Phil

[Loyal Servant] Loyal

[Race] Human

[Age] 26

[Condition] Healthy

[Traits] Blood Tempered Body Stage One

[Class] Warrior

[Stats] Strength 15 || Agility 12 || Perception 10 || Mana 0

[Class Warrior]

*Wild Blow

*Strong Body +2

.

“Phil, you can visit her any time you want.” Vincent then looked at Sakura and continued, “Sakura, could you carry Grace to the carriage and place her on a seat? She will be our new resident.”

A few minutes later, the people gathered outside to see what was happening. They suddenly saw a tall hobgoblin with horns carrying a sickly young woman. Many began to wonder if the woman’s family had sold her.

A few neighbors noticed Phil and went to ask him if he was selling his sister. Vincent interrupted them by saying, “I, Vincent Lionheart, have decided to sponsor the soldier Phil. What happens next doesn’t need to be explained.”

A woman became excited to hear how Vincent was a noble. She quickly approached Vincent and asked, “My Lord, are you looking for maids? I can be a good bed warmer as well.”

*Whip!* A whip smacked on the ground between the woman and Vincent. Sofy rolled her whip and said, “Wait in line slut. I wasn’t needed, so you won’t as well.”

Vincent didn’t know how to act after hearing Sofy say this. All Vincent could do was look at Sofy, shooing anyone who tried to take advantage of his kindness.

[I guess Sofy is still waiting for you. Even after living that kind of life, she still wants a man.]

-...-

After the situation settled, one of the two soldiers lived nearby. Sofy drove the carriage for a few minutes and stopped at the next destination.

Inside was a young woman pale as ice. She was the one who ate poisoned food. Vincent checked her stats and saw how the poisoning was still in its initial stages. The condition was stated as minor, so it could be cured by casting a healing spell once.

.

[-20sp used for Soul Power Minor Heal on Belta. 80sp Remaining.]

.

The room lit green as a layer of green light covered her body.

Iris opened her bag and looked to see if she had suitable herbs while Lilith studied the whole healing process. Vincent was like an expert doctor, while Lilith was a doctor in training in Lilith’s eyes. He was the person who could help her reach the next stage as a Healer.

As for the others, Maria was the most surprised out of Phil, and the soldiers that entered after seeing the green light flash from the windows.

Maria couldn’t believe Vincent used a healing spell without a scroll and without Inspection Gemstone displaying owning such a spell in his status window.

.

[Name] Belta

[Race] Human

[Age] 25

[Condition] Sick (Fever, Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting), Exausted

[Stats] Strength 6 || Agility 6 || Perception 5 || Mana 0

.

Vincent raised his hand and ordered, “Iris, because the poison is cured, Belta only needs treatment for Fever, Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting. ”

.....

Vincent looked at Sakura and ordered, “Place this woman on the other seat and tell Sofy to prepare the carriage to head home.”

Sakura lifted the sick woman with ease and went outside. Iris, Lilith, and Maria followed her.

*Thud* The soldier lowered to his knees and presented his sword. “I heard what Phil did, and I decided to do the same after watching the color of my wife’s face return. I, James, willingly vow to serve Vincent Lionheart in this life with all I have. I will be the blade to protect, to vanquish his foes, or be cast aside when danger befalls.”

“James, I accept your loyalty. ” Vincent said.

.

[Notice]

[James has been accepted to the Loyalty Servant System with a loyalty standing of Slightly Cautious.]

.

Later, Sofy drove the carriage with Sakura, Maria, Phil, and James to the mansion. Vincent, Iris, Lilith, Gannin, and the remaining solder named Hop left for the next patient.

In the next house, a woman limping became surprised to see her husband so early in the morning. On the other hand, Hop was surprised to see his wife trying to cut a chicken with a broken arm and a bruised ankle. Her face was slightly pale and her cheeks red. She was also showing signs of difficulty breathing.

After Hop quickly took his wife to their bedroom, he explained to his wife how this was a last-minute decision before her hard-headedness caused a life-threatening accident.

Everyone quickly understood what Hop meant after watching someone who found it difficult to stand was trying to cut a chicken with one hand and using a large knife at that.

There wasn’t the need to use Minor Heal, so Vincent let Iris take charge. She provided a few dried seeds, a few of the fresh herbs she harvested in the morning, and later instructed the couple on how to crush and apply them.

Vincent gave Iris some sticks and clean fabric to use. Then he, Hop, and Ganni left the bedroom while Iris and Lilith tended to the hard-headed woman’s wounds.
