Chapter 4:
Progress, regress, leap …
Slash, stab, defend …
Aaron held the cross sword in his hand and trained methodically. Not long after, he was out of breath and large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Phew … The lethality of this sword is strong, but if I go all out, I will run out of energy in a few minutes … On the battlefield, I need to pay attention to this."
In a battle of life and death, a person's energy would be exhausted the most.
It was just like how some people said that if two people fought for more than five minutes, it would be a performance.
Aaron deeply understood this point and also knew that the beginning of a battle was often the most tragic, and the soldiers' energy would be exhausted very quickly.
"As long as I can survive the first dangerous moment and pay attention to avoiding the stray arrows, I should have no problem surviving …"
As he thought to himself, he saw Colin, who was not far away, excitedly trying on a set of armor.
This was a gift from the Lord. It was a set of well-made armor that was worth as much as a knight's manor. After wearing it, the defense on the battlefield would be amazing, and it would increase the chances of survival!
As for Aaron himself, he only had a set of leather armor …
Perhaps, when he left the territory, he would be able to obtain a set of armor and become a wandering knight. This would depend on Colin's generosity.
However, Aaron did not feel much jealousy and silently returned to the castle.
After lunch, he told the maid not to disturb him and immediately began to rest.
During the day, he could also enter the dream.
… …
Rumble.
It was the same darkness, the same falling and twitching feeling.
Aaron was already familiar with it. When he opened his eyes, he saw a dark sea.
Blood, scales … They were still floating on the surface of the sea, as if describing the horror of the previous battle.
He raised his head and saw the night sky that was like a black velvet curtain, and … a crimson moon!
"Damn it … The original moon was not this color, or perhaps the moon, depends on the reflection of the light of the stars at night, so it became crimson?"
Although this world did not strictly follow the rules of his previous world, this was the most reasonable explanation that Aaron could come up with.
"I'm sorry … I really didn't mean it."
Aaron Sotos apologized to the air and then began to feel his body.
In this world, he was a pure observer outside of the multiple dimensions. Other than changing the sun last time, there was nothing he could do.
But tonight, the situation seemed a little different.
"I … can move?"
Aaron zoomed in and changed his vision. In the end, he confirmed that he had moved a very short distance. He almost cried tears of joy.
The heavens took pity on him!
Ever since he started dreaming as a baby, he had been standing at these coordinates. He had almost vomited from looking at the fixed scenery!
And now, he could finally move his vision!
"It seems like all the changes started from changing the sun …"
Aaron carefully recalled the slight difference.
"Could it be as I've guessed? After sixteen years of accumulation, I've finally completed some sort of qualitative change … Although I've used the energy I've accumulated over the past sixteen years to change the sun, my essence has also undergone some sort of change. It won't recede, so after entering the dream today and accumulating another unit of energy, I can move?"
Aaron named the increment he received every day when he entered the dream as a unit of energy.
And his movement just now had consumed this kind of energy. Because he only had a day's worth of accumulation in the real world, he had only moved a very short distance.
"To be able to do this, it seems that my life in the dream world won't be so monotonous anymore …"
Aaron let out a long sigh.
>
To be honest, when he was changing the sun, he had to admit that there was a surge of madness in his heart. It contained some of his own dark and crazy thoughts, and even thoughts of destroying the world.
After all, he had been imprisoned here for sixteen years. It was already good enough that he did not go crazy.
"But, what will this mutated world look like?"
Aaron was somewhat expectant. Relying on the moon and stars in the sky, he chose a direction and began to move.
"I hope there's a continent at the end of the ocean … Although … I don't know what it is now …"
…
The Sotos family occupied the Lower Green Forest. With Sotos Castle as the core, it formed a settlement the size of a small town. There were tens of thousands of people living there.
In addition, there were also about ten villages in the forest. At the same time, there were also some barbarian tribes that obeyed orders.
In the castle, there were about a hundred guards at all times. This was already the limit of the feudal era.
Of course, if there was a real war, the peasants could be recruited into the army. However, they did not have much discipline and fighting strength. In Aaron's opinion, they were only there to strengthen the army.
At this moment, Aaron looked at the group of militia that had just been pulled out of the fields. Most of them were not wearing clothes and were only equipped with simple weapons such as pitchforks. He frowned.
'Even if these fellows go to the battlefield, they'll only be cannon fodder …'
'A cannon fodder leader leading a cannon fodder camp. It's just right.'
Aaron looked at the messy militia that were lined up in a crooked formation. His expression did not change at all as he said loudly, "I am Aaron from the Sotos family! Aaron Sotos, your leader! From today onwards, all of you have to listen to my orders! Now, ten people will form a small team. You can choose your own team leader! "
He looked at the agrarian soldiers who were in chaos again and pondered.
In the feudal era, the wars between the noble classes were actually very polite.
For example, during the Spring and Autumn Period, war was very particular about etiquette. One could not even capture the enemy's monarch and try not to kill or injure the enemy's nobles. One had to treat them with respect and wait for the other party to redeem them.
In Fusang and medieval Europe, the situation was more or less the same. Even the descendants of the nobles who had lost their land were widely sympathized with.
The so-called "Revenge of the Prince" could be repeated because of this concept.
'But after all, this is an alternate world, and the situation is a little different. This time, it's not for the wild boar.'
For the sake of a single prey, two lords called for hundreds of fighters to fight. Perhaps this was just the entertainment of the medieval lords.
But this time, it was different!
Aaron could feel the ambition in Theodore's heart. After all, the Green Forest was still too small to accommodate the lords of two families!
The Davis family seemed to have the same idea.
Then this war would definitely be different. It was also the scene that Aaron did not want to see the most.
'Perhaps, after this war, one family in the Green Forest will be completely removed …'
