Chapter 32: The Season of Recovery! Let's go!
(Chapter 2 arrives!) Thank you book friend book awesome tip! Ask for collection, ask for tickets, ask for tickets, ~~~~~)
The lively Dawn Festival lasted for three days in the small town of Taaffeta, and the aftermath of the Dawn Celebration lasted until the end of the fourth month of the Windswept Season.
Well, to be precise, it is after the holiday is over, and before the farmers who have been busy for a year are ready to farm, that the aftermath of the Dawn Festival is completely over.
Farmers, townspeople, merchants, garrison soldiers, and nobles in the Barony of Ernst and other human realms began to get busy, and everyone began to work hard for the life of 1143 in the Dawn calendar!
Soon, when the melting snow and ice re-exposed the land, the whole Ernst territory began to be busy with the first warm winds and the first rains of the recovery season.
————————————————————————————————
In the year 1143 of the Dawn calendar, the fifth day of the first month of the recovery season.
"In the season of recovery, it is estimated that it will not be able to be the same as before"
At a window on the second floor of the lord's mansion, looking at the fields outside where a hint of green had begun to appear and a large number of farmers and livestock were working, Rhodes, who was dressed in knight-style clothes, said with a slight sigh.
If it had been before, Rhodes himself would have followed his father during the recovery season to inspect all the places in the Barony of Ernst and the most critical cultivation conditions in the recovery season (Note 1), and then clean up the hungry monsters in the Cold Wind Season that are now active in search of food (Note 2), which is a very busy time.
However, it is clear that Rhodes, who has been at home recently, can't be busy, as he is about to travel to a dangerous place like the Scarlet Canyon, which is thousands of miles away, he was forced by his mother to spend this last time at home, and Baron Ernst himself nodded in agreement with his wife's opinion.
In less than ten days before his departure, Rhodes found that his food level had improved dramatically, and it was still the dishes he used to love. This kind of thing, even if Rhodes doesn't know the exploration of the game space of the gods, he can guess whose order it is just by guessing - can there be anyone else besides his own father and mother?
For this kindness of his family, Rod can only bear this kindness in his mother's nagging and advice - fortunately, Rode, who embarked on the road of knighthood after crossing through rebirth, has a lot of food that ordinary people can match, and now he can face the food that can support a strong man on the earth alive and then chew it all and swallow it all.
However, now that he has regained control of his body, in addition to the development of the game space of the gods in the Rand Province of the Kingdom of Taran and the surrounding provinces after he left the Barony of Ernst, the most important thing is to consider what problems he will encounter in the place of the Scarlet Canyon that he has chosen.
"A place where millions of people are located, a thousand-year-old bloody battle that faces the orc empire, and a place where the powerful human beings gather"
Looking at the scenery in front of him, Rhodes's mind drifted through a series of adjectives that he had never met in the Scarlet Canyon, and he began to look forward to what kind of situation he would encounter in the Scarlet Canyon in his heart.
However, before leaving, Rhodes himself had to be patient, and continued to spend a few more days in the Barony of Ernst, where he had lived for more than ten years, and waited for the time to leave for the Scarlet Canyon.
————————————————————————————————
In the year 1143 of the Dawn calendar, the fifteenth day of the first month of the recovery season.
After the ground had fully recovered and turned green, and the entire Barony of Ernst had finished sowing, Rhodes finally obtained Baron Ernst's approval to go to the Scarlet Canyon.
Obviously, as the eldest son of Baron Ernst and the first heir, it is not a simple matter for Rhodes to go far away, not to mention that this is the first time that Rhodes himself has left home to go to the unusually distant place of the Scarlet Canyon, even if Baron Ernst agrees that Rhodes will go to the Scarlet Canyon, he will not let Rhodes go on the road alone!
Joke! A 15-year-old boy is not to mention going far away in a magical world full of dangers, and even on Earth, there are not many parents who can rest assured that a child of this age will leave home alone to travel to a destination at least a thousand kilometers away.
Therefore, after Rhodes was ready in the morning, he couldn't help but embarrass a face when he went out and saw the line in front of him.
"Rod, thirty cavalrymen and one knight should be able to get you safely to the Scarlet Canyon! And a few of the convoy will stay in the Scarlet Canyon to serve, at least so that you can have someone you trust to help."
Baron Ernst ignored Rod's embarrassed face and nagged to Rod, while Baroness Ernst on the side had tears in her eyes, watching her eldest son embark on a journey to a distant land with unknown futures.
In contrast, Anne and Anriel, who were less than ten years old, did not know the general situation, and only thought that their brother Rhodes would return soon after a long trip as before.
"I see, Father"
Rode, who listened to his father's words, smiled wryly, but didn't say anything but nodded very cooperatively.
In fact, last evening, Rhodes was summoned to the baron's private study, and then Baron Ernst informed him of some information such as money and related preparations. Now Baron Ernst is actually just a scene, and the really important things such as the money he carries have been directly told to Rhodes himself. What surprised Rod was that his father had thought about himself for himself, not anything else.
In the face of his father's hard work, Rhodes was still very moved to accept his father's kindness. Besides, it is unrealistic for Rhodes to go on the road alone, after all, the safety of this world is far from reaching the standard that one person can go on the road.
"Rod, eagles always have to go through hardships to be able to spread their wings and fly high! But don't forget that you have the blood of the Ernst family in your veins, and the family and the small town of Taffeta will always be your backing and home."
Finally, with Baron Ernst's parting words, Rhodes was brought to the convoy.
"Young Master Rhodes, this time I will escort you to the Scarlet Canyon!"
Looking at Rhodes, who was standing in front of his monster mount and saluting peacefully but was not moved at all, the Tamon knight, who was wearing the enchanted knight armor and wearing a gray-black cloaked cloak, sighed secretly in his heart, clenched his fists and performed a simple etiquette, and then said to Rod himself very politely.
Although the knights of Tamon were puzzled by Baron Ernst sending his best (only Rod's initiative to show his strength was also the best in the history of the Ernst family) to the place in the Scarlet Valley, the knights, as vassals of the Ernst family, did not hesitate to agree after receiving the order from the lord to escort Rod.
"Knight Tamon, I'm going to trouble you along the way!"
For the enlightenment teacher of half of the knight's road in his life, Rod said very politely.
"You're welcome, this is the task given to me by the baron, and I will send Young Master Rhodes to the Scarlet Canyon safely!"
For Rod's words, the knight of Tamon explained a little rigidly, and then the second half of his sentence was actually addressed to Baron Ernst and Baroness wiping tears from his eyes.
"Alright, then you guys should leave early!"
Baron Ernst nodded to the Tammon Knight, and then spoke loudly.
It's not that Baron Ernst is in a hurry to drive his son away, but it's almost nine o'clock in the morning on earth, and the big guy can eat lunch directly in the town of Barony Ernst.
"Check it out! Ready to go!"
"Rod, be careful along the way, pay attention to your body and safety"
"Brother, are you coming back for dinner?"
Under the order of Baron Ernst, who had already prepared to put important things into a specially opened space (Note 3) in the game space of the gods, Rhodes simply threw some of his salutes directly onto the two carriages in the team, and then rode directly on his half-demonic beast blood horse led by the groom. At the same time, the orders of the knights of Tamon, the admonitions of Baroness Ernst, and the questions of Rod's sister Loll (Crab) Leanne also made the scene noisy and lively, and finally it was Baron Ernst who spoke to calm the scene.
"Father, Mother, Anne and Anniel, goodbye!"
Rhodes, who was riding on his mount, looked at the family in front of him, took a deep breath, waved his hand, and shouted loudly before turning around and leaving with the convoy that had already departed. And when Rhodes walked all the way to the point where he could barely see the town of Taffeta, he was able to look back and see his family standing in front of the town gate and not returning.
While feeling a little sad in his heart, Rhodes turned his head to look at the road ahead of him and showed a hint of excitement, because he had finally taken the first step towards this magical world!
(Note 1: The five northern kingdoms only have the opportunity to grow wheat crops once a year, but because of this world, the yield is much higher than that of the real world medieval ones, almost half of the yield of hybrid rice, an agricultural artifact, so sowing seeds in the five northern kingdoms is one of the most important things in the territory.) )
(Note 2: During the cold wind season, hungry monsters will also attack human villages and towns, but in general, each fiefdom nobleman will focus on dealing with these restless storage before the cold wind season every year.) )
(Note 3: Although the current game space of the gods can store supplies, it needs to spend resources to build a special storage space, so Rhodes only carries some clothes with him.) )
