Become a knight starting with synthesized entries.

The sight of the wreckage scattered all over the ground made Ryan's eyelids twitch.

Just imagining the ferocity of the battle in his mind sent chills down Ryan's spine.

But it was Roan, this "unremarkable" knight, who actually did it.

Is this what a "knight" should be like?

Powerful, kind, brave, and humble.

Ryan's gaze pierced through the heavy armor, a bitter feeling welling up inside him.

Roan is a knight, so what does his past behavior count for?

Ryan stared intently; a true knight should be honest.

He tried to speak: "Lord Luo An, um—"

Luo An suddenly frowned and clicked his tongue.

Ryan was startled: "Lord Roan, you're injured?"

Luo An shook his head. There was something more important he had almost forgotten.

He spent a full 5 silver coins' worth of potions to kill so many wolves.

They even took out the medicines they had been saving.

Achievement not yet unlocked.

That's a huge loss.

We have to make back our investment no matter what.

Luo An pulled out a small knife. A wolf pelt was worth 20 copper coins, and the wolf carcasses scattered on the ground were worth at least 5 silver coins.

"Lord Ryan, please go back first and report to the guards that I am fine. I'll just cut off some wolf pelts."

"Wolf skin?" Ryan thought he had misheard.

How could a knight stoop so low as to skin a wolf?

However, since it was done by Knight Roan, it must be right.

Ryan took out a signal flare and fired it into the sky to indicate that the area was safe.

Although signal flares are precious, Ryan couldn't care less at this moment and took out his knife as well.

"Lord Luo An, I have sent a safety signal to the guards. Let me help you with the skinning."

"You?" Luo An looked the guy up and down, who had suddenly changed his personality.

Oh well, Luo An has never cared anyway.

"Do you know how to perform skin grafts?"

"Won't!"

"I will learn from Lord Luo An!"

This sounds so familiar.

Never mind, time is tight and the task is heavy, I can't delay tomorrow's schedule.

Luo An looked around but couldn't find a single intact wolf pelt.

A good wolf pelt is worth 20 copper coins, while a bad wolf pelt can only be used as a rag.

Damn it, fuck it!

Why am I so cruel?

Roan, Roan, Knight Levi teaches you to be kind every day, why don't you listen?

Luo An was on the verge of tears. If he could turn back time, he would definitely go back ten minutes and punch himself hard.

But now, it's no use saying anything.

At that moment, Ryan called out to Roan from a distance.

"Lord Luo An! Here's a fine piece of leather!"

Roan quickly ran towards Ryan.

As a knight, learning to skin a wolf was not difficult. Ryan had already skillfully cut off a shiny wolf pelt and handed it to Roan.

"Lord Luo An, this wolf's pelt is top-quality. Although it's only 5 silver coins."

Ryan coughed and spoke again: "A full five silver coins!"

Roan was overjoyed. Five silver coins! Although he thought the pelt Ryan had was no different from any other wolf pelt, he figured Ryan wouldn't lie to him.

Ryan patiently explained, "This piece of leather is already quite good. Look, there are tiny black hairs under the skin."

"In the eyes of the nobles of Lorton, this wolf pelt is a very prestigious symbol, and with a little manipulation, it can be sold for 7 or even 10 silver coins."

Luo An couldn't understand.

It's valuable, that's for sure.

As Luo An reached out and took the heavy wolf pelt, a golden light suddenly flashed before his eyes.

[Golden Achievement: Kindness: Receive ten selfless and grateful rewards.]

Current achievement completion status: 3/10

Well, does that count?

Without Ryan, Roan would probably have missed out on this excellent hide.

Thinking of this, Roan handed the leather back to Ryan.

"Could you please handle this piece of leather for me? How about we split it 50/50?" Although Ryan didn't say it explicitly, Roan could roughly guess that he was a noble knight from Lorton Town.

Even if Luo An, who knew nothing about leather, knew it was a good piece of leather, he would still be ripped off at the market.

It was best to have someone else handle it.

"Yes." Ryan patted his chest as proof of approval. "To repay Lord Roan, I will definitely sell it for the highest price. I will absolutely not take your money."

How to repay the debt?

Luo An paused for a moment, then said that Ryan didn't need to mention repaying him.

Later on, Roan didn't care about Ryan at all; he was just doing it to complete his achievement.

Now that he had gotten a good piece of hide, Luo An was too lazy to look at the pile of junk around him, and the two returned to the camp together.

As soon as they arrived at the outskirts of the camp, Jalli and his guards immediately surrounded Roan.

A guard breathed a sigh of relief. "Lord Luo An, it's so good to see you're alright."

Before he could finish speaking, Jiali interrupted the guard. "How could Lord Luoan be in trouble? Don't talk nonsense."

"Alright, alright," Roan interrupted Jally.

"It's good that you're all unharmed, Your Excellency—"

Before Luo An could finish speaking, Ya Yang softly chanted the miracle.

[Miracle: Restoration]

[This tells the story of the birth of the great mother, Tsering. Chanting this miracle can restore health.]

Unlike the restoration techniques described by Levi, the Goddess Knight Ya Yang does not require complicated ritual preparations.

Simply by recounting the miracle, a faint golden light emanated from Roan and Ryan, as well as from the guards around them.

Ryan and Roan shone the brightest.

Luo An could clearly feel his restless heart calm down a lot, and his back was itchy, perhaps as his wounds were healing.

The light lasted for quite a while.

Ya Yang stumbled and almost fell, but fortunately Luo An caught her.

"fine."

Ya Yang broke free from Luo An's hand. "I'm going to rest now, everyone."

Luo An nodded as well, feeling exhausted and sleepy after the battle.

Fortunately, Jalley had prepared food, fresh roasted wolf meat.

Just smelling it made Luo An feel like he could devour a wolf.

Roan and the guards grabbed some roasted wolf meat and ate it haphazardly. He noticed that Ryan was still standing on the perimeter, so he raised his hand to call out to him.

"Ryan, there's another share for you too."

Ryan came to Roan's side.

At this moment, the laughing guards suddenly stopped what they were doing.

Luo An knew what they were thinking.

But he didn't mind and casually handed a piece of meat to Ryan.

Ryan took the meat, thanked him politely, but didn't touch it. He wasn't entitled to eat it.

"Eat."

Luo An didn't even look up.

"As a knight, you must eat to ensure you have enough energy to complete your mission."

Ryan nodded silently, took off his helmet, and swallowed the meat in large gulps, choking and coughing.

A guard handed over a water bag.

...

After a short meal, the entire camp fell into a deep slumber.

The next day I woke up to a beautiful day.

Nobody wants to stay in the wilderness.

Quickly set up the campsite.

We walked a long way.

Finally, I saw wheat fields and village roads.

The weary group quickened their pace.

We slowly drove into Creekwood Village.

The procession from afar enlivened the small village of less than two hundred people.

The villagers cautiously examined the insignia on the soldiers, and breathed a sigh of relief when they recognized it as the mark of Lord Lorton.

Lord Lorton is a good lord, and Lord Levi is a good knight.

Feeling the villagers' enthusiasm, the guards breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems there are neither wild beasts nor cultists here, so the mission should be easy to complete.

But the moment he entered Riverwood Village, the prompt appeared before Luo An's eyes again.

Robbers, beasts, cultists lurk in the shadows.
