Chapter 4 Four Eras
Hasid, the family knight of the Werman family, whose lifelong creed is to protect the safety of the Werman family. Although compared with the family knights in ancient times, modern family knights are relatively more committed to their beliefs. Once the actions of the family they protect go against their beliefs, they will leave without hesitation. But in general, family knights are still the most trusted people of every noble.
Hasid did not have any major dissatisfaction with the Werman family. Except for Sharan Werman, the nominal future heir of the Werman family, he was very satisfied with other aspects. In his opinion, Sharman Werman, the second young master of the Werman family, was more suitable to be the helmsman of the Werman family in the future. Compared with Sharan Werman, Sharman Werman was more humble and polite, and had a rich reserve of knowledge, which was not comparable to Sharan Werman at all.
In addition, Sharan Werman had never been kind to him in the past, and it was common for him to order him around, which made Hasid even more displeased with the future heir of the Werman family.
Shalan looked at Hasid, he could see a hint of alienation in Hasid's eyes, but in his previous life Shalan had done a lot of low-level jobs, he had also suffered a lot of people's contempt and ridicule, he didn't care about the alienation and dislike in Hasid's eyes at all, relatively speaking, he was more curious about Hasid's powerful swordsmanship.
In his previous life, Shalan lingered in the gray area of the earth, and had learned many fighting skills in order to protect himself. However, in his opinion, those skills that he was proud of in his previous life were nothing but shit compared to Hasid's swordsmanship, and were not worthy of being put on the table. Therefore, after seeing Hasid's swordsmanship, he immediately developed a desire to learn his swordsmanship. However, now it seems that with Hasid's alienation from him, he may not be able to teach him.
Taking a step forward, Shalan looked at Hasid and said, "Uncle Hasid, may I learn swordsmanship ?"
Hearing this, Hasid was stunned for a moment, but then he shook his head and said to Shalan: "Master Shalan, swordsmanship is too hard, and you will hurt your body if you are not careful. Master Shalan, you have just recovered from your injury, so you are not suitable for swordsmanship yet."
"Uncle Hasid, I know my body very well. My injuries have healed and I can fully devote myself to the practice of swordsmanship."
With a slight frown, Hasid looked at Shalan, wanting to refuse but not knowing how. After thinking for a while, Hasid spoke again: "In that case, Master Shalan, please tell the Earl. If the Earl allows... then I will teach Master Shalan swordsmanship wholeheartedly." In Hasid's opinion, with the degree of doting on Shalan by the Earl and the Countess, they would obviously not agree to let him learn swordsmanship. In this way, he would not have to directly refuse Shalan.
Shalan naturally didn't know what Hasid was thinking. He just nodded and said, "I feel relieved with what you said, Uncle Hasid. I will tell my father about this matter during dinner tonight. If everything goes well, I will come here tomorrow morning to wait for Uncle Hasid's teachings."
After saying this, Shalan did not linger for long. He turned around and left the training ground, returned to the mansion, washed and changed his clothes under the servants' uniform, and ate breakfast in his room.
Scrambled eggs, fried bacon, toast, milk, and seasonal fruits, this is Shalan's breakfast. It is definitely a very rich breakfast in this world, and it is a part of a decent life that only nobles and wealthy businessmen have the financial resources to maintain.
After breakfast and putting on her coat, Shalan sat at the desk, opened the book and began to read slowly.
During the past week of recuperation, Shallan had a new understanding of his own superpowers. When his superpowers were activated to the maximum, he could memorize and quickly understand anything with just a glance, and even apply what he had learned to other situations. However, the corresponding result of fully activating his superpowers was that the ability could only be maintained for a very short time, at most only three minutes and forty seconds before he had to stop, otherwise it would cause great damage to his body.
If you only adjust your state and only need to memorize things, then you can maintain it for a longer time and remember more things. In other words, memory ability, comprehension ability, reasoning ability, etc., if you only use a single ability, then you can maintain it for a geometric multiple of time, but if you use these abilities at the same time, then the maintenance time will be reduced geometrically, and the time required to rest and recover will also be longer.
After completely memorizing the contents of the last three books in his room, Shalan put down the books and closed his eyes. It seemed that he was leaning back in the chair and dozing off, but in fact his brain was analyzing and understanding the content he had just memorized at a speed three times faster than that of a normal person. Although this took more time, relatively speaking, including the time for recovery and rest, he was able to memorize and learn more every day.
"This world is really vast and has a long history. If we add the history of the first three eras that have been proven to have been destroyed, I'm afraid this world has a history of hundreds of thousands of years. It's really terrifying to think about it."
Just as the book says, before the present era of this world, there were three eras of highly developed civilizations, separated by tens of thousands of years. The first three eras of highly developed civilizations were eventually completely destroyed for unknown reasons, leaving only humans to start developing their own civilization again from the most primitive state. Those three destroyed eras were called the Golden Age, the Silver Age, and the Bronze Age by modern historians, starting from the oldest era, and the modern era is called the Iron Age.
Time passed little by little as Shalan was studying and thinking. When she was awakened by the maid's knock on the door, she found that the sky outside had completely darkened. The sun had set and the moon rose again.
"Master Shalan, the Earl has returned and dinner is about to begin. The Earl asked me to call Master Shalan to the restaurant to finish his meal."
Looking at the cautious maid, Shalan stood up and put on his clothes under the maid's clothes. He looked at the maid with red ears, smiled slightly, and said softly: "From your appearance, you should have just come to the manor, right?"
Hearing Shalan's words, the maid nodded slightly and hummed softly.
Reaching out and lifting the maid's chin, Shalan slightly raised her face. Looking at the pretty maid with a pair of bright eyes, Shalan smiled slightly and asked, "What's your name?"
"My name is Sally."
"Sally? Good , follow me from now on. Go tell the housekeeper that I don't need another maid, and you will be the one to dress me from now on. Now take me to dinner."
