"Time for lessons," the maid said.
"I hate them," I replied angrily, "I just want to sleep."
Almost five years have passed, and I have continued to stick to my plan of acting incompetent. I have pretended to have a different personality. I have tried to be bad at anything I could be while being as lazy as possible. It is starting to change me, though, and I was getting tired of acting.
The only problem is that I have to act like this for the next ten years! The system was not human enough to talk to, so the only person I could act like myself with would be someone that I trusted. I then remembered the missions the system gave me.
"Eureka," I thought, "I can start training my assistant now!"
{Not yet, you are still a little too young to do that.}
"Oh come on," I thought, tears falling down my cheek, "you're just torturing me, aren't you."
"I can imagine that undisclosed person of yours watching me and laughing at my situation," I said.
{I am not permitted to tell you that.}
"I wasn't asking," I grumbled.
I was starting to become more emotional from acting like a little kid all the time. Gosh, I hate five-year-olds!
"Can I at least get the sword fighting skill? I think I am ready," I asked.
{Ok, the sword fighting skill is now unlocked. you have 500 SP left.}
As I was thinking about the past, I suddenly remembered something.
"Oh, what about the small missions you said I would have," I asked.
{You already completed them, and I just never needed to tell you, since the missions have the same requirements as your plan. Let me update your balance. You now have 2,000 SP in your account.}
"I am sure that you are telling the truth," I replied sarcastically, "whatever."
I stealthily went into the sword training room, taking one of the wooden swords. It was time to try out my new skill, and I wanted to see what was possible. When I got back to my room, I put the tool in my hands and started practicing with it.
As I started practicing the sword, a weird sensation swept over me. It was almost as if someone else was controlling my muscles. I felt like I could manage the sword better than most knights, and as if I had practiced the sword for many years.
I then quickly finished. I don't want to have anyone find out my sword skills, and I don't need to practice at all.
I was done practicing so I went into my bed.
Let's talk about my new knowledge about this world. If I could compare Zeeland to a country from the earth, it would be Spain. Zeeland is at the northern tip of a vast sea that has many similarities to the Mediterranean. My country is at the mouth of the sea with access to the open ocean as well. Now for more about the country itself. My country of Zeeland has two central regions. The western part of the country which has all the large cities and most of the wealth, and the eastern part which is very underdeveloped and impoverished. I am planning to go to the eastern region because it has very little nobles and needs development.
The capital city is the second-largest city in the country, with the city port Alexande being the largest. Both cities have a population of around 100,000. Zeeland has two rivers, one in the western region and one in the eastern region. It also has a small mountain range to the south-east. This makes Zeeland well-defended from its only neighbor.
I have also learned a bit about my family. My mother died in childbirth when I was two. I am not that sad, though. I soon figured out after I was born that she was a mean and cruel lady, and I didn't want to have anything to do with her. My brothers are both mean but in different ways. My oldest brother is outright rude and isn't afraid to yell at anyone, but my other older brother is perhaps worse. He is quiet, but it feels like he is hiding something. He seems to be the brains of the two while the oldest brother of mine is the brawn. Their names are David and John, respectively. It appears that after a while, they realized that they couldn't poison me and also saw how stupid I was. After a while, I think they realized I was not a threat and they didn't need to kill me, but I am worried that John is still suspicious of me.
My father, Richard, is a rather kind king who cares about the people. My only worry for him is that he misjudges my brothers. He is too kind to his children. I know that he is disappointed in me but he still loves me because I am his son, so I quite like my father. I don't know much about my sister, though. All I know is that she was married off to another country while I was still young.
That's all I currently know. I plan to settle a new city on the river delta of the eastern region because it has plenty of available resources, and very little nobles live there. I can have all the mobility I want.
A few months went past, and I continued to get ready for an assistant.

SunkenSpaceMan Hi, SunkenSpaceMan here. I am sorry that I was unable to get the extra chapter that I said I would. I was busy yesterday night, and I could not find the time to finish it. I think I might be able to get another chapter done today, but no promises.
If anyone has any questions or ideas, please share them. I will try to answer them as fast as I can, and I may even implement the comment in the story if it is reasonable.
Thank you for reading this chapter!
