Early in the next morning, Eduard started to stretch out his body after waking up and washing his face.
He is currently at the backyard of his new residence. Since he has nothing to do while waiting for his breakfast, he decided to do a normal stretching exercise.
Sadly, he did not sweat too much after 30 minutes of doing the normal routine, due to his physique improvements. His body of a 1st tier Iron Level Knight was stronger that his old body on earth.The door of his Eduard's house suddenly opened. Angie suddenly came out from the inside.
Angie was one of his maid that accompany him. She was around 15 years old, with a good looks. Her brown hair was paired with the color of her brown eyes, which made her quite attractive.
She noticed that Eduard was busy with doing exercises while his upper body was exposed, she was attracted.
Suddenly, she remember her purpose of coming and called out for Eduard.
"Young master, the breakfast is already prepared" she said loudly.
Eduard stopped his exercises activity and walk on the direction of Angie.
Angie was in a daze, looking on Eduard's body. She can't stop herself to look, Eduard body was quite sweaty which make it looks like shiny.
The body of Eduard was got chiselled into a muscular tone after he was leveled up by the system. This could be called as a bonus reward for his reincarnation.
Angie switched her gaze to the other direction to avoid looking at the body of Eduard. She was ashamed of what she is thinking over her master.
Angie action didn't scape the noticed of Eduard. He also looked at the direction where Angie was looking.
Seeing that theres nothing interesting beside the large tree that been swayed by the wind, he switched back his attention to Angie.
There is a little bit of redness on Angie's cheek, It makes the clueless Eduard's worry.
"Angie are you sick, your face looks reddish. You look like someone with fever" Eduard comes near her and touch her forehead.
"Uhm, Y-young master I'm fine. I-It should be due to being exposed to the kitchen" she meekly replied. Her face turned much redder than before, when Eduard suddenly touched her forehead.
Angie was shocked to her young master actions. This was the first time that he was bothered to small matters like this towards her.
"Oh, okay" Eduard did not ask much, since he already confirmed that Angie was not sick.
He removed his hand on her forehead to avoid misunderstanding.
"By the way, I will just go to the dining hall on my own. I will just fix myself first, just tell this to Linda" Eduard said while picking up the towel on the side
"y-yes young master" she nodded and quickly vanished on the sight of Eduard.
Eduard can only smile in Angie's action.
"This girl is really clumsy like on the memories of old Edward".…
After finishing his breakfast, Eduard walked out of his residence to meet his people.
This was just the right time to distribute the task to everyone.
The sun was shinning brightly which is a good time for constructing and farming work.
He gathered all the people in front of his residence to make his arrangement. Including the knights and two maids inside the house, they are in front of his residence.
Everyone were looking at their new lord, the 10 knights was forming a neat row in front. The two maids were on the both side of Eduard.
"Good morning my people", Eduard greeted everyone.
"I will introduce myself to everyone before everything else, since we have come here yesterday" he loudly said with a sense of authority.
"I am Viscount Eduard Chris your new Lord. I won't hide it to everyone, I am a novice in governing this land but I hope you will cooperate in my agenda's. " He sincerely introduced about his self.
"As your Leader, I will ensure that you will have a safe place to live, and enough food to eat, but we don't have that luxury right now. So, we will take it one step at a time, until we flourish" He strongly voice out.
He continued to tell his plans and possible arrangement for everyone on the future. Eduard was like a politician who is in the process of candidacy.After saying his speech, Eduard's body was sweating a lot.
He was nervous, it was like in his school days where he performs a speech in front of the stage and the people was looking at him intently.
He just put his hands inside his pocket to avoid unnecessary movements and not to be notice his nervousness by everyone.
"So now, I will start assigning the task for everyone. Linda please report the people count on me, including the assets that we have" he requested.
Linda nodded and started to make her report.
"Young master, you currently have 42 people including us the maids, 10 are knights and 30 are slaves, all of them are in healthy condition. The knights are all male while on the slave's side,25 are males and 5 are females. There are no minors and old people in the slaves. The females are also with their husband." She continuedly said.
Eduard was amazed by the analyzation ability of Linda. She has an ability of a secretary and a maid. Her report makes it easier for him to analyze his people status and conveniently allocate the work to them.
"For our assets, we are left with a hundred gold coins. The food that we have is enough for one month, if the slaves were only distributed half a pounds of grains per day. We also have 3 horses and 1 cart that can be used for transporting goods. "
After Linda's explanation she stepped backward to the side of Eduard.
On the other hand, Eduard was analyzing the situation. He was managing on how to allocate his people.
He sighed inwardly, 'I lacked the people to do a lot of work.'
After pondering for a while, he decided to assign the task.
"I will distribute now your work. The 10 knights will now be assigned to repair my residence. After you repair my residence, you will help the servant to repair their tents. Do you have any comments" he authoritive said.
The 10 knights kneel in front of Eduard and chorus said, "we will heed your command, Lord ".
Eduard loosened his breath. He thought that he will gain complaints from his knight since it was not in line of their work.
He forgot that his rulers command skill was currently working.
"Now for the slaves, 5 of you will be assigned to be a helper of knight in constructing and repairing my residence. The rest will be assigned to clear the field on the north to make a bed for farming. UNDERSTOOD?"
All the slaves kneel in front of him and respond to him weakly, "understood, my Lord".
Eduard nodded to their response with a look of satisfaction, "for the two maids, you will be assigned to cook the lunches of this people. You are free to take the 5 women slaves if you lack the manpower" he said as he faces the two maids at his back.
They also knelt happily and agree to him.
"Now start to disperse and do your work"
Everybody stands up and proceeded to their assigned task. They gathered their materials needed for the assigned tasks.
Eduard was now left alone in front of his residence with a troubled look, 'Now, what should I do, I forgot to left someone to accompany me. I don't have anything to do for the whole day. Do I need to laze around? No, no, no I am the Lord, what would happen if they see me leisurely lying around here without working, while they are tirelessly making their labors. But I am the boss here. Still no."
Due to his skill Rulers Command, nobody retorted to his command. The skill ability was strong to make everyone agree to his arrangement. If the skill presence was not there, the knight's dissatisfaction will be visible and their complaints will be voice out to him.
Only the maids and the slaves would give a positive response to him.
Right now, Eduard was still troubled on his situation he will be bored if he has nothing to do.
After a while, he decided to look at the kitchen to help. Since in his past life, cooking was his hobby, so held for the kitchen task.
Walking at the kitchen door, Angie and Linda was shocked to his sudden appearance. They immediately come to him.
"Young master, what can we do for you?" Angie asked while halting her work.
"No need to be bothered, I just wanted to help. I have nothing to do for the whole day. I will also feel that I am useless, if I only watched everyone to do their work " Eduard said while waving his hand like saying that ' not to mind him'.
Linda was even more shocked to Eduard's statement, since Eduard did not even enter the kitchen from the time that they were employed by him.
At the same time, both she and Angie feel that something was amiss on their Lord but they cannot point it out.
Eduard did not mind the two and started to gather his ingredient. He decided to make a vegetable soup for the workers, this dish was simple and appropriate for cooking in large quantities.
Linda and Angie notice that the Eduard started to do his things, they also came back to continue what they are doing. They only hope that Eduard will not make something inedible.….Before the sun came down, a system notification appears in the screen.
[ congratulation host for completing your mission (repair the viscount residence). Do you want to claim your reward?]
[ new mission was issued by the system]

After taking his dinner, Eduard immediately proceed to his room. He opened his system panel and choose to take his reward for accomplishing his mission.[ ding! Successfully bestowing Hand to Hand Combat Skill]A row of information appears on Eduard's head. The Information contains different skills to fight unarmed and fully utilizing his body as a weapon in combat. After a moment, the memories have fully integrated to his mind. The feeling was the same as he had train on it for more than a decade. Including his muscle memory, they are also part of the reaction. As long as he wants, he can show a prowess of an expert in Hand to Hand Combat."With this skill I should be able to match those people that in tier 3 iron level knight with an average skill even if they wield their weapon". He clenches his fist and punch in the air, a gust of wind was created from his punch. The curtains on his bed room were swayed from the punch.After a
Three days after the departure of the knight, Eduard was now again at his backyard sparring with two of his knights. These two was Erin and Ernie, they are brothers that are both at 5th tier Iron Level Knight. The two was already at the age of 25, being stuck on tier 5 for almost 5 years they were both assigned to him . The family, already regarded them as talentless and have no future and use for them.This morning he only learned that the two knights was always bullied in the household and the resources for them was always seized by the stronger knights on their group. They also used them as a training dummy for their technique, in the end they always received injury resulting to stagnating of their cultivation.Eduard pitied them, luckily the family had given up to the two. After the 3 knights came back from the city with the 20 slaves, he will have the manual to improve them. Since this two endure their predicament for 5 years and still dedicated to tra
Inside the Chris Manor, a young man at around age of 20 is sitting on the chair, while holding a cup of coffee. the man resembles the face of Eduard but look much older than him. The color of his hair was also different from Eduard dark color hair, his hair is gray in color.This man was Darwin, the first son of Chris Family Leader.He was now facing an old man in a butler uniform. The old man was at the age of 60's, but his body is vigorous as a young adult. There is also a silver aura that surround him, indicating that he was in Silver Tier Level Knight. He was only standing silent on the side, waiting for the young man in front of him to speak."Steve, did you confirm that my brother Eduard placed was only a desolated area?" the Darwin asked. The old man move in front of him, "Yes Young Master, it is at the border near the beast man territory. The young master Eduard troops will have a hard time there to gain foot h

They are more than happy, since they will not joined the other slaves instead their task are within the mansion.He also learned that before they were catch by the slave trader they are already abandoned kids in the street.Well, they are lucky that they fall in Ed
Reaching the location near the forest, Captain Martin immediately come to Eduard, " My Lord, we have caught a Horned Board. Please give us the instruction ". Eduard eyes wandered on the surrounding Knights before he face Martin, " Captain, is there any casualties on the knights?". " You don't have tio worry my lord, the Boar just manage to enter the rank of Iron level, so the knights easily killed it. ". Martin said with assurance. Eduard was thankful that nobody was injured, since they have only limited supply of medicine if anybody was grievously wounded. Eduard walk near the boar and observe the look of the beast. He was shocked to see that the boar was thrice the size of regular boar on earth. ' this boar just enter the rank of iron level with this size, how much larger the other beast t

Digong was on the post of the knight. His given job by Eduard was to assist the knight in looking for any people that appear on the territory, and as a message deliverer, if an intruder had come to invade. It was only passed the Lunch time, he has to accompany one of the knights on duty who assigned as his guardian in training. Looking from a far, he noticed a carriage that is coming at a fast speed in their direction. He called out the attention of the knight beside him who is facing the opposite side."Uncle Eren, Look! A carriage was coming to this direction in a fast speed". Eren also looked at the direction that Digong was pointing out. A familiar insignia in front of the carriage was visibly hanging in front of the carriage. ' someone from the Chris family', he muttered." Digong, immediately look for Captain Martin, inform him that someone from Chris family is coming" 
" Alright 90 beast to go ", Eduard muttered, seeing the count of the beast they hunted.The red eyed wolf was the seventh beast that they encountered during their hunt. The knights with him was already worn out and taking a rest to regain their energy. During his fight with the red eyed wolf. He requested the knight to let him take it solo. They were only allowed to interfere if he is in danger. His Knight complied to his request and move to the side. They are observing his battle and preparing themselves to rescue. Afraid that he will be in danger in any moment. At the end, they are shock to the capability of Eduard to parry the wolf. Even though the wolf was already a six tier iron level beast. It didn't gain any advantage during the battle. The most eye catching only is its speed that was hard to follow by the naked eye even for an eight tier knight.
