The Most Satisfied Reincarnate

With the house they just had, the Bastian family began to live normally. They often got a task to kill a beast near the village and guard the border between the Imperial Empire and the North Empire. Even the assassins sent by the Imperial Empire were never once seen; this made Leona and Bastian feel safe to leave Desmond and Alice at home.

In the same year, Grandmaster Weston finally retired. Because the Grandmaster's position in the army was now empty, many debates and conflicts have occurred. People close to Grandmaster Weston chose Noel as the next successor, while some chose Leona, who'd recently joined the military to become Grandmaster.

On hearing this rumor, Leona instantly announced that she preferred to support Noel as the next successor. Therefore, now the faction of the army was divided into two parties. The first party supported Noel, while the second party supported the New Master Wizard named Grimm.

Grimm was a man who King Edward himself had just appointed. Grimm was the same age as Bastian and was a good friend of King Edward; he also helped Edward take the throne and made him king of the North Empire in the past; however, he'd disappeared after Edward became king.

After five years, Grimm suddenly reappeared in front of Edward with his wife, who was already pregnant. According to his admission, Grimm had been trapped in the deepest beast territory, making it very difficult to get out; if one beast died, the dead body would attract more beasts to come; it took him a very long time to fight only one beast. He used guerilla tactics, and after one fight, he would run and hide and then fight again.

With Grimm as the person the king had known for years and Noel as Grandmaster Weston's rightful disciple, it was difficult for Edward to determine the next Grandmaster candidate.

Edward then stated that there would be a battle between Grimm's camp and Noel's camp in the next five years, this fight amounting to 10 people with five vs. five. The winner would become or get the position of Grandmaster of the North Empire.

With the king's statement, many suspected that Noel would win the battle easily because  there were two Master Wizards and one dual-class person on her side.

In the past, Grimm had been known as a wise man; when he heard this, he almost gave up the Grandmaster's position, but King Edward told him to participate; besides making the fighting force stronger, this also positively impacted the kingdom, making this kingdom feel alive.

During Edward's reign, after he got the throne, people still feared that war would happen again, making people not excited to stay in the North Empire. Therefore, this competition was expected to increase the troops' morale, increase their experience, and make this kingdom more lively. The competition was known as The Tournament of Storms.

At the same time, Grimm was also blessed by a child the same age as Desmond, and maybe one day that he/she would rival Desmond.

There was also news about the construction of the North Academy School that was now complete and ready to accept students. Many people who heard this instantly signed up their kids, but the academy location was a bit far away from the capital city. Whoever wanted to join must pay a wagon and mercenary to protect them from the wild beasts.

The people began working harder to gain more money; they wished their child could fill their hopes to become a wizard.

It's rare to get wizard knowledge to expect one of your family to be a wizard or get a wizard inheritance in the past.

In the past, that made ordinary people instantly give up and become a swordsman; only people living in the Imperial Empire could sign up in the Imperial Academy. Now, the North Academy had opened a new path for them. With this situation, the North Empire entered a period of calm.

-Three years passed-

In the morning, in the vast meadow, light shone on a courtyard near the castle. The air was still fresh, and the sound of chirping birds in the morning made it a beautiful garden. After the birds chirped happily, they then flew across a boy.

The boy was about 110 cm tall, with blackish-brown hair, while his eyes were magenta. He was holding a wooden sword with both hands; his forehead was sweating, and sweat was dripping from almost all of his body; his expression was solemn.

If you look at his body's shape, the boy had certainly trained very hard for many years to achieve a muscled body. The boy swung his sword up and down repeatedly, and after a few hours of doing the same thing, suddenly, the boy's body fell backward to the ground. His face was facing the blue sky, while his breathing was rough. He also started to close his eyes.

Silence filled the area; only the breeze's sound was heard when suddenly, the boy opened his eyes. The boy's eyeballs began to glow reddish for a few minutes before returning to normal.

As the boy was lying down, he heard a voice calling him from afar. "Excuse me, young master, your meal is ready."

This boy is Desmond. During these three years, he had always been diligently practicing with his sword and using spells without a break; even both his parents told him to rest and make some friends.

He just casually lied to them that he gets stronger to avoid the trouble and protect his sister and family in the future. Both of his parents felt relieved; they only smiled and suggested that he eat regularly.

Desmond got up, approached the servant and said, "Thank you, please put it over there."

At first, the servant was confused; why did the young master train so hard? Why should he eat the meal on the ground, not at the dining table? But the servant didn't dare question the young master's decision; after a few years, the servant had gotten used to his young master's behaviour.

"Yes, young master," said the servant, bowing slightly and putting the meal on the ground before leaving.

Desmond then looked at his meal; there were lots of vegetables and only a little meat. Desmond deliberately adjusted his meals to diet, so he did not have excess calories. He had seen many people still not care about the health problem and the advantage of vegetables. He added lots of vegetables to improve his memory and endurance. This made his body more healthy and fit.

Desmond sat on the ground with his legs crossed, then start eating. While eating, he also checked his status.

Hmm... After three years, there has only been a slight improvement; at this rate, I won't be able to protect myself, let alone my family. What if the assassin suddenly comes again.

System, how's the new spell creation going?

Congratulations for reading so far, now the common sense of this world will start to take effect. This is what I mean,

'When compared to our world, a person can be considered young adult from 17- 25 years, but in this world it should be 10-18 years. Basically a legal age for women to married is 12.'
