Capítulo 1: Chapter I. King‘s System
Coming from another world, anyone would be shocked right? Well, at first I was, but after a moment of calming myself, i wasn't anymore.
I lived a normal life, waking up early in the morning, going to work, coming back and so on and on.
Well I also liked to read novels, novels about systems wich would help the main character return and end his act of revenge.
Clearly that was all fantasy, and something like transmigration wouldn't be possible but now, now I was here.
Not only did i not die, I was also reborn into a person called David StoneHeart. He was the youngest prince of the White Lion Dynasty.
Well, sadly he was not anyone great but a typical playboy who used his background to pressure others.
When the old king of the dynasty died, the struggle of power and the battle of the crown had begun.
His oldest brother Lois, had sent him to the small town of Whistlestone. A village with the population of only six thousand and because of its location, most time no merchant came, as it was right on the border to the demon realm. A dangerous land, where not even the strongest of mankind dared to go.
The swordsmen and magicians were divided into 12 stages
The first 3 stages were the so called Sword Apprentices and Magic Apprentices.
They were the first steps on the journey of power and strength.
After these first three stages came the the Knight and Mage Stage, they resembled most of the upper nobles in many country's on this continent.
After this came the 7th to 9th Stage, also called Sword Master and Magic Master.
Many of these were already the kings and leaders of the kingdoms.
But that wasn't the end. The people who reached the pinnacle of both swordsmen and Magic could be counted on both hands. They were the ancestors of mankind, who defeated the demons and used their blood and sweat to create the world I was in.
A legend said, that their even existed a 13th Stage, but nothing could prove them true.
The old king of the White Lion Dynasty, for example was a 7th Stage Swordsmen and the most trusted servant, also a 6th Stage Magician had pledged his loyalty to the first prince. Because of that, many other factions and nobles also became subordinates of the Lois, the second.
As the memories slowly came back and I could remember more and more of the past, a mechanical voice came inside my head.

[ Please open the box and start the Mission ]
"Open!" I shouted, maybe a little too loud, cause a guard riding next to my carriage suddenly asked if everything was ok. I assured him, that it was fine and returned to the screen wich had appeared in front of me.
[ Novice Reward Box ]
You have received:
Two Level Ups
One Champion Summon,
1.000 Gold Coins,
[ Do you want to start the summoning? ]
"Yes!" I said trying to be as quiet as possible to not arouse any conspicuous from the guards again.
[ Summoned "Zhang Yu" (Status) ]
[ Please choose, where to be teleported ]
Mh, i had think quite a time about that. I didn't want to teleport him right next to me, because the guards would get wary of me.
But if something happened, a guard wouldn't be bad.
"System? I want him to be placed 100m next to the carriage, so he can hide between the trees and follow me like a shadow."
[ Transmitting Message to "Zhang Yu" ]
"Oh, and I also want to see the status"
I quickly added to my last sentence.
[ Status - Zhang Yu ]
Name: Zhang Yu
Strength: 3rd Stage Sword Apprentice
Master: David StoneHeart (Host)
Kingdom: None
"Great! A 3rd Stage Apprentice could already be called a powerhouse in many small cities."
With this the first stage of having a strong army under my command had begun.
Many things were still unclear for me and I felt really tired from everything that had happened in the last hours, that I quickly fell asleep.
"Your Majesty?" A humble voice could be heard from outside. It was the same guard from before. As he spoke to me, I quickly woke up and replied,
"Yea? What is it?"
"The sun has already descended and would soon disappear, also the others and the horses have been quiet tired after the long journey. We would settle down here and rest for tonight." He answered to my question with a little overbearing tone. I knew, that I hadn't been a very pleasing sight for many knights, there was even a rumor, that my past self had made the king kill a guard for not letting his wife have sex with me. Of course even my past self wouldn't do something like this. But the rumors spread like wildfire and soon everyone knew about it.
"Sure but we have to get going early in the morning so we can arrive at Whistlestone in the afternoon." I again replied and pushed the window down to look outside.
Everything looked like earth in the medieval times only that here, different races like elves, demons, beasts and even dragons existed.
I was already excited to the times I could see a living dragon like in the books.
I felt the carriage stop and knew, they had found a good stop for tonight.
