Become a knight starting with synthesized entries.

"Go do what you truly love. You understand, Roan?"

Luo An understood what Levi's meaning.

But I didn't feel much inside.

To love... to fall in love with a girl, or to fall in love with a knight? To be honest, Roan didn't quite understand either. What did this have to do with becoming a knight?

William interjected, "Hey buddy, don't believe Levi's words too much. Just think of him as drunk and talking nonsense."

Levi laughed and didn't argue, but simply raised his hand and patted Roan on the shoulder.

"Luo An, you've grown up too fast. One day you'll surpass me and carry more burdens than I do."

"I don't want you to be exposed to too much at your age, especially at this stage."

"How about this, starting tomorrow, I'll give you a long vacation so you can experience things that are appropriate for someone your age."

Roan shook his head in refusal. The "time" that Levi's mentioned was precisely when the monsters reappeared, which was the busiest time for the soldiers.

As a squire of Knight Levi's, how could Roan abandon Lord Levi at such a crucial moment?

Levi smiled. "Don't worry, Roan, there are adults to hold the sky up even if it falls."

"Anyway, it's settled then."

"By the way, your wages will still be paid, don't worry."

Levi picked up his glass. "One more thing, a toast to Luo An's safe return!"

........

At dawn, as the sky began to lighten, Luo An finished his daily training and sat shirtless on the training field.

A wisp of mist rose from Luo An's muscular body and dissipated into the morning fog.

Now, Luo An can carry a 600-pound weighted iron cross stake and run at high speed.

If the "Giant Slayer" perk is triggered, you can carry an 800-pound Iron Cross.

In theory, the "Beast Slayer" tag could be added to reach a terrifying 1000 pounds.

However, [Beast Slayer] increases damage and only works when hacking at stakes dressed as beasts.

Luo An also felt a little regretful.

If only I could trigger both attributes. Right now, even a trainee knight could fight Roan.

Unfortunately, it's just a thought.

Having rested enough, Luo An did not rush to stand up.

Normally at this time, I would have to drag my tired body to report to the guard regiment.

But when Luo An woke up, he found himself unemployed.

Although it's only temporary.

Luo An also knew that Levi's giving him a vacation was definitely not just for him to enjoy life.

There will be more monsters to encounter in the future. If you are not a trainee knight, it is a sign of weakness to rely on monsters to trigger affixes to strengthen yourself.

Over-reliance on keywords will eventually lead to your downfall.

In addition to the agreement with Léa.

The dual pressures were urging Roan to become a trainee knight as soon as possible.

Back at the training ground, around noon, Roan, panting, went to the bathhouse, took a bath, and then asked a maid to help him put on his armor before heading straight to Toneri's tent.

I almost got ripped off yesterday when I went to buy gems, but luckily Luo An ran away quickly.

It seems that professional matters should be handled by professionals.

Entering the tent, Toneri was lying face down on the table, her glasses beside her. She was fast asleep.

The flickering candlelight in the tent illuminated Toneri's golden hair and soft face, making her look like a legendary elf.

Putting aside the fact that there was still some glistening liquid hanging from the corner of her open mouth.

Luo An slapped the table; he wasn't there to watch people sleep.

Tonery jumped up in surprise, frantically rummaging through the table for her glasses.

"Excuse me, sir, please wait a moment while I look for my glasses."

Roan pushed his glasses in front of Tonerie.

Tonerie put on her glasses and recognized Roan, immediately letting out a sigh of relief.

Losing composure in front of customers can lead to missed business opportunities.

There's no need to worry about Luo An.

"Oh, it's Luo An. It's rare for you to arrive so early."

Luo An turned to look outside. It was already bright outside. He could sit for a while longer before having lunch.

"It's alright." Luo An took out a bag containing a total of 40 silver coins.

"These are the 40 silver coins I earned yesterday."

"Yesterday? 40 silver coins?!" Tonery's eyes widened, then narrowed slightly. "You sold your body?"

"Thank you for the compliment," Luo An said calmly.

"I originally wanted to buy a blue gemstone, but I was afraid I wouldn't know its value, so I didn't dare to buy it."

"I need your help."

"Hmph, so you finally admit that I'm omnipotent. That's right, besides being a genius alchemist, I'm also a genius gem appraiser!" Tonery yawned and stretched out her hand.

"2 silver coins."

"..." Luo An took out two silver coins. Although he had guessed that Tonerie would ask for money, he did not expect that this shrewd merchant would ask for two whole silver coins as soon as he opened his mouth.

Tonery hadn't expected the usually stingy Roan to be so agreeable, and asked again, "Did you sell your body?"

"Thank you for the compliment," Luo An said again.

"Hey, who's praising you? Fine, if they don't want to say it, they don't want to. I don't care anyway." Toneri stretched lazily, showing off her figure, which was enough to make even the gods err, beneath her wide robe.

"Let's go. There's not much business today. I can also teach you some alchemy while I'm at it."

Speaking of alchemy, Roan remembered that Toneri seemed to have promised to teach him alchemy for free.

"Speaking of which, alchemy should include gem identification, shouldn't it?"

Luo An seemed to be deep in thought.

"Logically, you should have taken me to buy gems for free. Besides, you still charged me 20 silver coins for the service. Buying gems is also part of the labor cost."

Tonery stopped in her tracks and chuckled. "Really? Don't worry about the details. By the way, have you eaten? My treat. Hurry up, hurry up."

Stepping out of the tent, Tonerie, as usual, took out 10 copper coins and asked the patrolling guards to watch over the tent. When she saw Roan, the guards did not ask for the money.

Tonelli was overjoyed. It was a rare occasion for her to splurge, so she spent 20 copper coins to buy a good cheese baked milk and sausage bread, and handed one to Roan.

Roan didn't dare accept it, while Tonerie was excessively generous.

"Eat up, don't be shy, it's on me. Remember to treat me next time," Tonelli said with a smile.

Luo An was relieved, but as he took the bread, a golden light suddenly flashed before his eyes.

[White Achievement: First Date. Unlock Condition: Spend time alone with someone of the opposite sex in a friendly manner. (1/1)]

【Finish】

[Unlocks the white attribute: Beast. Increases corresponding attributes when cooperating with members of the opposite sex.]

The rate of increase will vary depending on the level of intimacy.

[Entry Description: A beast calling for love at the center of the world.]

[Current improvement: Slight.]

[Increase attribute: Vigilance.]

Luo An was taken aback; there was actually such a term.

What does it mean to raise your level of vigilance?

Tonerie noticed that Roan had stopped. "What's wrong? Is it not good?"

"It's nothing," Roan shook his head. Suddenly, he noticed a whole silver coin rolling under Tonery's feet.

The Golden Rule has been activated!

A month later, I found another silver coin!

Luo An subconsciously bent down, picked up the silver coin, and was about to grin when he suddenly realized something was wrong.

At that moment, Tonerie saw him picking up the money, and that was it—he was doomed!

Tonery's calm eyes were fixed on the silver coin in Roan's hand. Her gaze shifted to Roan's face, and suddenly she realized something. A hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
