Chapter 3: intruder

----- two months later

In the last two months I've learned a lot about my local environment. We are in a small town called Dampiercot. The man who leads the town is Aric Blackwood, a retired royal knight.

I heard that this man lost his right leg protecting the king during an assassination and was rewarded by the king with this town-like piece of land.

In my third month in this world, I finally finished the first mission the system gave me and I was bragging to my mom about it.

"Kael, you see, our son has already learned to walk at this age. He's sure to be a great warrior in the future."

While my mother was crying with happiness, I walked with slow and determined steps to my mother's lap and I left myself on my mother's lap.

"You're really right. I've never heard of anyone being able to walk at 3 months old. The Lords must have favored our son."

Since I already knew how to walk, all I had to do was suck my mother's milk and wait until my legs could hold me up, But if you want to think the gods have blessed me, I can't stop you.

[ Congratulations main mission (learn to walk) completed

Mission completion rating : S

Mission reward : profile screen and repeating missions unlocked

Extra reward : charm + 1]

Ohhh, it's a strange feeling to suddenly have some information pop up in my head. So that's what the profile screen is for. Even though my vocal cord development is complete and I can speak, I don't want to scare my mom. So I'll check the profile at night.

[Congratulations you have a new main task (learn to read and write)

Mission content: learn to read and write in the language of this country as soon as possible. Write at least one word in the Dastia language to complete the task

Mission time : 1 year

Mission progress : none

Mission reward: unlocking the ability to control the system with the mind and system AI

Mission penalty : strenght -1

Note: A person who cannot read and write is called a child. No matter how old you are. Are you a child? ]

System AI and controlling the system with the mind are really good things. Now I don't have to be afraid to control the system in front of other people and I have an AI that I can ask questions about the system, maybe this AI is the same as the one in my previous life and it will tell me everything I want to know.

If I can reach the math and physics books of my previous life, or at worst the romances, I can publish a few books and be lazy for the rest of my life.

[ Congratulations you have a new repeating task ( get stronger )

Mission content : do as much physical training as you can.

Mission time : 1 Month

Mission progress : none

Mission reward : physical growth

Mission penalty : Electricity

Note: If you're lazy all day, you're gonna die. I'm serious! ]

Haaa, what kind of a mission is this? I'm not sure if it can even be called a mission. Anyway, I've already been doing physical exercise.

Even though I don't understand what a mission penalty is, I'm sure I don't want to find it out.

Now, let's check this stuff called a profile

--- profile ---

-----------------------------------

I definitely think I'm better at cooking than cleaning. I wonder if the level has dropped because the materials for the meals I know are not in this world. Math and physics are no surprise.

It was inevitable that I would be an charming person. With a mother like that, who can be ugly. But I have a question, if I fail the main mission, will my strength drop below 0? Maybe I'll be crippled.

* Knock knock *

Who would come at this time of night?

When my father heard the knocking on the door, he quietly approached the door, picked up the sword hanging by the door and slowly opened the wooden door. When I saw that my father remained silent for a while, a small fear entered my heart. At the same time, my mother, who was holding me, got up from the wooden floor and took a step back.

"Albertoo! It's been a long time. Why did you come unexpectedly? And are you okay? What happened to your arm?"

My mom breathed a sigh of relaxation when she heard who it was and sat me down on the sofa.

"Is it Alberto, honey?"

"Yes, but he's a little hurt. Can you get my first aid kit?"

My mother was going to the back room of our old four-room house, which is usually used as a storage room, and a handsome blond man came inside the door.

The man was bleeding on the floor from the arrow lodged in his left shoulder. My father moved quickly, sat the man down on another couch and started bandaging the man's shoulder with the cotton cloth my mother had brought.

After stabilizing the cotton cloth on the man's shoulder with a layer of plastic wrap, my father completed his first aid, which was pathetic in my eyes.

In my previous life, although I was known as a gansgter, I was actually a simple street kid and I never joined a member of a clan because I don't like taking orders from other people.

For this reason, when I had an injury, I would do first aid on my own instead of going to the hospital to ask about the reason.

One of the biggest mistakes my father made was to let the fluffy cotton cloth come into contact with the open skin. Another mistake was to wrap the wound without disinfecting it. If left like that, the wound would become infected and as a result the arm might even become useless.

As a sweet baby, there was nothing I could do, so I continued to watch everything in silence

-------

A week after the incident, everything happened as I expected

The young man, whom I learned was my uncle, refused to see the village pharmacist, insisting that he was fine, and as a result, he got out of bed last night in a cold sweat, breaking up my private sleeping time with my mother.

As a result, my mother covered me with several blankets and set off to take my uncle to the village pharmacist's house.

"Hang in there a little longer, Alberto. We'll be with the pharmacist's grandmother in a moment."

"You don't need to worry. I just need a simple painkiller. "

What a stupid man. The level of education in this world seems to be very low. I have to find a way to use the knowledge I gained in my previous life in the future.

Luckily the old woman was still awake and welcomed us. Ignoring my uncle's nonsense, the pharmacist woman ripped off my father's first aid and revealed the almost darkened wound.

Then the next thing the old woman did made me so horrified that it almost made me swallow my tongue.
