The Experimental Log of the Crazy Lich

"If you want to become a knight, even if you are a wild knight without a family crest, even if you may be someone else's servant for the rest of your life, even if you can never become a formal knight at this time, as long as you can become a knight, that's enough."

For Cohen Esta, becoming a real knight has always been his dream.

But unfortunately, he is neither the son of some high-ranking official or nobleman, and it is impossible for him to be given to an ace knight as a squire knight since he was a child. Not to mention going to the Knight Academy to study, he can't even recognize the words, and he still can't even reach the ideal first step.

So, he stepped back and aimed to become an ordinary soldier, but the result was even more disappointing.

"No matter what melee profession it is, if you don't have strength, you can't even meet the basic requirements. You should go back."

He couldn't even lift the sandbags used for training, he couldn't even use the wooden lance, and he couldn't even swing the wooden sword a few times. Naturally, no one wanted to take him in.

He is always not tall among his peers. Although his flamboyant blond hair and delicate face make him quite popular among young people, his slender limbs and extremely poor physical strength have always made him a little unconfident.

The fact that even the militia organizations were unwilling to accept him made Cohen a little desperate, but even so, he still did not intend to give up.

"Since talent is lacking, let's make up for it with hard work."

As a result, Cohen's neighbors could see him get up early every morning and run around the river carrying sandbags.

And after finishing the farm work every day, he would go to the shop to help people move goods and work. Making money is one aspect, and he is looking forward to training himself in this way. Increase physical strength.

And although the exercise was very hard, it was indeed very effective. At least the originally fair and thin limbs became dark and thick. According to the sister Asha next door, she finally looked a bit manly.

But unfortunately, in a sense, it probably evolved from a hamster to a squirrel, and its combat power rose from five to six. I am no longer out of breath while running, but I still can't lift heavy objects that I couldn't lift before, let alone swinging iron swords for a long time.

Therefore, although he felt good about himself, he was still rejected at the first stage of joining the army. After all, Dong Lan was not rich at the time, and he couldn't afford to support too many troops. However, the enthusiasm of civilians to join the army to protect the country is very high. As a result, the number of applicants far exceeds the actual establishment, which invisibly raises the selection standards. Waste materials like Cohen are too far away from the qualifying line from the very beginning, and it is impossible to become a soldier at all.

even so,

He is still unwilling to give up the original. I just work harder to polish myself, work hard to accumulate, and hope that there will be a day when there will be a qualitative change in the end.

But unfortunately, he still failed all the way to deal with it afterwards.

"It's impossible for you to become a knight. Give up. No, no. I'm not talking about your birth. The Kingdom of Lan has always judged heroes by their military exploits. Yesterday's peasant children are not rare today's knight lords. I'm talking about yours. Strength. How can a warrior who can't even wield a two-handed sword normally be able to go to the battlefield, and how can he have the opportunity to become a knight of honor if he can't even go on the battlefield."

A knight lord who was impressed by his efforts originally planned to accept him as a squire, but after testing him, he finally gave up.

"Hey, isn't this our future knight lord? Hehe, hello my lord, you just came back from patrolling, did you gain anything? Did you challenge a demon or an orc? Or just returned victorious after defeating a dragon? Ah, great Cohen, he is our dragon slaying hero, hahahaha!"

When he was still doing physical training in vain, while some people praised him, those young people who didn't like him would always take the opportunity to laugh back.

But even so, he still persisted. At this point, I am afraid that he himself does not remember why he chose this thorny road in the first place.

Was he rescued by the knights when he was attacked by wild beasts when he was young? Was it when you were moved by reading the first deeds in the past when you were young? Is it time to watch the triumphant knights shout long live? Or is it time to make an oath to protect family and friends with your own hands?

He has no retreat, nor does he plan to choose a retreat, he can only continue to persevere...

"Believe in yourself, you can do it. I was also very thin when I was a child, but I'm not as strong now. By the way, His Highness Roland seems to be planning to form a new legion. Would you like to try?"

It's not that everyone is not optimistic about him. Every time Brother Kurul comes back and sees Cohen working so hard, he will encourage him so much.

By the way, for Cohen and the people around him, the elder brother Kurul in the same village is a great big man. He is the pride and hope of Dar Village. status, but in the eyes of the villagers, it is only a matter of time before becoming a real knight-lord.

It's just that he adopted a little girl named Ai Li recently, and his life was miserable, and he became an unmarried little father with a daughter inexplicably, which made many girls very sad.

And the encouragement of Brother Kurul made Cohen work harder, but unfortunately, he still failed again and again.

It wasn't until one day that he met a black cat, a strange black cat that could speak human language, that things really turned around.

"Hey, I picked up the treasure, and it's actually a child of elements? Make a contract with me and become a magical girl...a magical boy!"

Cohen was taken aback for a moment, thinking it was some wizard's joke, but after being confirmed by Brother Kurul, he realized that this black cat was a great big shot. She was His Royal Highness Roland's favorite black cat who had always been able to use magic.

She actually said that she has excellent magical talent and wants to teach herself to become a mage. Undoubtedly, mage is a more promising profession than knight, so it stands to reason that she should readily accept it.

but.....

"My lord, thank you for your great love for me, but my goal in life is to become a knight. Perhaps the path of a mage"

Well, at that time, the black cat had an obviously surprised expression on its cat face, which was mixed with incomprehensible surprise, which made Cohen also worried that he had accidentally offended her.

half rate. The black cat continued.

"Okay, the knight is the knight. Let me introduce you to someone. Let him fool you...to teach you. From the point of view of a knight, he should be considered very remarkable. Well, although being a mage is a stick , but perhaps he would be a suitable mentor for you."

--------------------

"Roland, I found your brother."

When I heard this just now, I was stunned. Isn't my brother Cavens in the abyss now? How could he meet this dead cat.

"You are very talented in swordsmanship. You are obviously a warrior, but you just ran to become a mage. He is a son of elements, born with the qualifications of a great mage, but you want to go to be a can (knight). You are all so awkward, what is it if you are not a brother? ?”

Well, this dead cat has no virtue. Of course I took care of her.

But I was quite confident in her eyesight, so I became more interested in the kid named Cohen and arranged to meet directly.

"Ro...His Royal Highness Roland, Lord Heloise said that you can make me a knight..."

The young man trembling in front of me was so excited that he accidentally bit his tongue. And through the prompts of the system, I am more interested in it.

[Korn Esta, Occupation: None, Strength 5, Dexterity 7. Physical strength 7, intelligence 14. Will 11, Charisma 10. Racial Talent: Son of the Elements. System evaluation: Such a scumbag of natural strength wants to be a knight, such a strong mage talent does not want to be a mage, it is really your brother,]

[Son of Racial Innate Elements: Difficult to memorize lengthy incantations? Complicated spell formulas and difficult to understand? These are not a problem for the children of the elements. They use instinct to control the elements, and replace inefficient spells with direct commands. They are the natural favorites of mages, the illegitimate children of magic and elements, and the destined archmages. 】

Soon, through communication, I almost knew what was going on.

It's no wonder that Heloise would say it's my brother. Power Five actually intends to be a melee fighter, but his outstanding mage talent is regarded as a trouble that hinders his knighthood. Such an awkward personality is really rare.

And after getting along for a short time, I also like this shy big boy a little bit. After all, these days more and more young people go for "money and career", and there are fewer and fewer "idiots" who are obsessed with ideals. There are even fewer who are still diligent without getting rewarded.

In a sense, I am also such an awkward "stubborn stone", so I accepted him and made him my third retinue knight.

"Well, in that case, let me teach you some required courses for knights. Well, first of all, meditation and magic control... These are not courses for knights, but for mages? Young people, don't worry, please Be humble, haven’t you heard of arcane knights? This is a compulsory course for an excellent knight, and it’s impossible for ordinary knights to learn these. By the way, I have a melee class that might be very suitable for you, why don’t you give it a try? ?”

Not to mention how I guided (fooled) this young man afterwards, but at this time, I am very satisfied with the decision I made before. After all, under the premise that the other two knights are not qualified, this young man can be regarded as helping very busy.

Even if the direction of help is a bit unreliable...

"Brother Roland, I accidentally over-roasted the barbecue again, it's a bit dark, but my instinct is that it will be delicious. How about you give it a try? Maybe the new flavor will be delicious."

No, it will definitely not be delicious. One side has become charred, and the other side is raw meat. How to eat it is a problem, and your intuition has never been reliable.

"It's strange, I strictly follow the ratio of the alchemy formula, ten grams of salt, one gram of sugar, how can it be so unpalatable... Ah, I misread the decimal point, the salt is ten times more (ah, Sugar and salt are wrong)...or you can make do with it."

I should sigh that you are worthy of being an alchemist. Did you bring a full set of alchemy equipment when you were camping outside? Making a lunch actually tastes like a chemical experiment, but why is the last thing so terrible, what is that green stuff? Is this okay? Dare you try it yourself before handing it to me? Now that I know why you have always been a third-rate alchemist, can you do it right once by chance?

Generally speaking, a knight's entourage as an apprentice is also a knight's personal entourage. As a tradition passed down by knights, the entourage is responsible for the logistics of their own knight mentor. Neither can become an official knight.

Before becoming formal knights, they were both masters and apprentices, masters and servants, many of them were even like father and son, but the two servants I chose before were obviously unreliable. Instead, I, as a mentor, took care of them most of the time. Not to mention, the enthusiasm and confidence in exercising are also completely out of place.

Renee is a princess, and she has no ability to live in the wild to understand. Catherine is from a family of knights, and she can be regarded as a fallen nobleman, so she can understand it with no hands-on ability.

If it wasn't for the Korn boy who could make some decent broth, or after running for thousands of miles, I would only do it myself when I was tired, and I don't know who is the follower.

According to the expected grouping, my three subordinates should be in a group with me, but Renee said that she has already broken through the gold rank, and with Roland's holy sword in hand, she has long been able to stand alone. It can be done without my guidance.

Okay, it is impossible to grow without experiencing actual combat, so I will let you try it. In this case, I am afraid that you will be short of manpower, so I will let the other two followers follow you and make some achievements for me.

But the rank does not represent the actual combat power. In actual combat, a desperate bronze rank can scare the parallel gold rank who has never seen blood, but on the battlefield, a short hesitation may cost one's life. cost.

The result was completely within my expectations. If the blood assassins arranged in the dark hadn't intervened in time, I'm afraid Donglan's princess would have considered changing to the undead class.

"Little girl, you are still too early to be a teacher."

So after the reunion, with the help of my squires, I was even more tired. I had to hunt rangers and take care of rookies. I was a mentor and a parent at the same time.

Fortunately, Cohen, who was born in a farm boy, still has at least some ability to live. Being able to help build a temporary camp and take care of his life is a great help.

In desperation, I even called out Renee's underground bodyguard, blood clan Susanna, and asked her to find a way to teach these rookies the basic skills of wild survival, at least to teach them the simplest barbecue and broth cooking.

After all, if you live in the wild for a long time, it is not enough to rely on dry food alone. Broth and barbecue are the simplest dishes, but relying on these two will inevitably lead to nutritional imbalances and ultimately affect combat power.

Therefore, for a mature adventure team, the ability to survive in the wild is essential. The famous survival master Bear Grylls once said, "Survival in the wilderness is my life, and the wilderness is the most natural food bank. If you remove your head, you can do anything." You can eat!"

But this time, when I returned to the camp just after finishing a hunt, I could smell some familiar aroma of broth, which whetted my appetite.

"Huh? It's so fragrant, with the smell of weeds and spices? Suzanne did a good job, you're a quick learner, and you've become decent so quickly..."

Then I couldn't continue the rest of the words, and what caught my eye was a girl dressed as a maid who was busy in the camp. That was a familiar figure that definitely shouldn't appear here.

[Ding, Demacia! The passing wild maid appeared, thank the maid for saving you from the unknown compound hell. Otherwise what awaits you today is Renee and Catherine's concoction of hard work - Green Slime Cooking! Uh, as an insider, I]

Directly ignoring the cuteness of the system, the beauty in my eyes made me feel like I was in a dream.

The familiar bow and salute, the familiar reflection of the lens, but the unfamiliar body temperature and enthusiasm that are approaching. At the moment I was stunned, the wild maid girl had already hugged me.

"Welcome back, master. Do you want to eat first, take a bath first, or... want to eat me first!"

Well, I really don't know if I can eat you, but the cold bayonet-like eyes on the back really seem to want to eat people!
