The Extraordinary Earl

Chapter 2 Looking to the future

"Okay, okay, Mr. Knight. Since he was eight years old, little Luther has strictly accepted knight education. He eats, trains, and attends cultural classes on time every day. It's okay to have an occasional disorder."

Mrs. Sophie quickly smoothed things over.

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

He also treated Luther as his own, making Saul satisfied in every aspect. The only thing that made the male host complain a little was that his wife was a businessman, not a noble.

This made the male host a bit jealous.

"You just know how to pamper him." Thor showed his dissatisfaction, but his expression softened a lot. In fact, Thor also remembered that when he was young, under the training of his father, he lived a harder life than Luther, but in the end he successfully inspired the power of knights and inherited the Pompeii territory.

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 his wife said, Luther has been training as a knight since he was eight years old. Except for some necessary social interactions, he is like a machine and has never relaxed for a moment.

So Saul's heart softened, and after thinking about it, Saul said to Luther: "Let's take a day off today and go have fun."

"Thank you, Dad." Ludburn lowered his head, intending to pretend to be dead and listen to Sol's scolding. Unexpectedly, there was a day off, and he suddenly raised his head in surprise, and then quickly expressed his thanks.

A day's rest is nothing. He was mediocre in his previous life. In this life, he came to this world just because he wanted to show off his talents. He was not opposed to knight training and was even eager to try it.

But after all, I have just traveled through time. Although I have received memories, some parts still need to be adjusted. It is good to have a day to walk around.

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

Following the host's order, the family immediately started eating. The main meal was of course meat, and some vegetable soup. Whether it was Luther or the younger Will and Mary, they cut the beef very quickly and sharply and ate it with big mouthfuls.

This is the Pompeii family. Even eating feels like they are in a military camp.

After breakfast, Thor went out and took his own bodyguard with him. He had something to do today. Sophie stayed in the castle to deal with some trivial matters. She was a capable noble lady.

Will and Mary took cultural classes together, and in the afternoon, nine-year-old Will had to do knight training.

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

The Pompeii castle was a small castle, roughly round in shape, and entirely black. At the back is the main building, and in front of the main building are two rows of barracks on the left and right sides.

There are also stables, school grounds and other facilities.

The outer body is the wall.

There were one hundred soldiers in the castle, which was the military strength of the Pompeii family.

"Master Luther." Luther left the main building. There were two guards in front of the gate. Because there were no big things in the territory at the moment, the atmosphere was relatively relaxed, and the two guards were chatting from time to time. Seeing Luther coming out, the two of them saluted quickly.

"Thank you for your hard work." Luther said to the two guards based on his memory of his performance.

The two guards were a little embarrassed. They were chatting just now, which could not be considered as fulfilling 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, allowing Luther to enjoy the treatment like a wealthy landlord.

Finally Luther came to the wall above the city gate, where he overlooked the entire Pompeii territory.

It gradually overlaps with the memory in my own mind.

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

This world is undoubtedly very exciting, and his background is not bad. At least he has entered the threshold of aristocracy. There are no conflicts at home, with a domineering father and a gentle stepmother.

Even if he doesn't do well in the future, he can still inherit this territory and become a wealthy landlord. However, since I am a clothing industry owner, I am really not willing to wait for death.

If the entire Kingdom of Prussia is used as the target, even if he cannot become a hereditary duke or marquis, he must at least be a real count.

To be a human being, you must have some hope.

According to Luther's knowledge, it was very difficult to rise to a title in the Kingdom of Prussia. The first thing is to have blood. Throughout the Kingdom of Prussia, although it is not easy for a commoner's child to become a knight, there are also examples of people who inspire the power of knights to become knights. Not just one example, there are many.

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

The nobility ostracized the common people.

Because blood is supreme in the Kingdom of Prussia, the nobler the bloodline, the more dazzling it is.

Although the Pompeii family had a low starting point, they still had some noble blood. The Pompeii family was a branch of an ancient count family.

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

And whether he can climb up and become a great 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 power, you will have matching military exploits.

If you have huge financial resources, you have connections.

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

Unfortunately, the Pompeii family, or more precisely, Luther himself, has neither of these two paths.

Needless to say, the Pompeii family only has one knight leader and no other income. As for outstanding martial arts, Luther knows that he is not mediocre, but not outstanding either.

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

Luther began knight training at the age of eight and has a physique far superior to that of ordinary people. He is fifteen years old this year and has not yet stimulated the knight's power.

According to his father Sol's evaluation, he should be able to stimulate fighting spirit at the age of sixteen.

The average age of stimulating the power of knights in this world is seventeen years old. Luther heard that some geniuses can stimulate fighting spirit at the age of thirteen or fourteen. In other words, his qualifications are above average, but definitely not outstanding.

"If you want to climb up and live better in this world, outstanding martial arts are a must, and you have to think of some ways to do it."

Luther thought secretly.

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

Maybe his vision is too narrow. After all, he is only a 15-year-old boy in his life, and he has basically spent his life in training.

It seems that this matter needs to be considered in the long run.
