After several days of traveling, finally Noran and the others had arrived at the capital.
Noran and the others returned to the academy, there were only 6 trains returning, it seemed like there were 150 students killed, with in addition to 20 from the Noran class, a total of 170 students were killed.
2 Academy teachers also died in this battle, the battlefield was too harsh and dangerous.
Master Wilberd then walked into the academy's headroom, meeting Mr. Neil with the other teachers.
"Mr Neil, we've been negligent" said Master Wilberd.
The old man sighed, sucking the tobacco that was now burning in his mouth.
"I expected it, make it a lesson for the students, come back" Neil said.
He looked towards the distance, maybe his time on duty was almost here.
Elsewhere, the disciples were given a week's rest, Noran chose to return to the Crystal city.
...
Noran had now arrived at the Crystal city, he spurred his horse slowly while looking at the development of the city, it seemed like this small town was well developed.
There were only 100 soldiers patrolling the security of the city, it was adjusted to a safe city, only requiring a little manpower to patrol.
The soldiers saluted Noran when they saw him, in addition to giving them shelter, Noran had also made them what they are now.
Now that Noran's name had become sacred in their hearts, they became more loyal to Noran and increased their loyalty.
Several restaurants and luxurious inns have been built beside the lake, this is a great source of personal income for Noran.
"Maybe having a few blacksmiths will come in handy." Noran murmured.
Noran entered the mansion, looking as if the old man had greeted him warmly.
"Welcome back sir." said Grim.
"Yes, I'm back" Noran said.
"Do you want to take a shower or eat?" ask Grim.
"I'll take a shower first" Noran said.
Grim told some servants to prepare warm water and food for Noran, and he walked into the room.
After the warm water was ready, Noran entered the bathroom to clean himself, he had now put on his noble clothes.
Food was in front of him, Noran ate it and looked at Grim who was still standing.
"Why are you still standing?" ask Noran.
"Sir, a servant will eat after his master has finished eating" Grim said with a smile.
"Sit down and eat with me" Noran said.
He forces her to join, Grim wants to reject her but Noran forces her with his powers, making Grim unable to resist.
"How strong is this Mr. Noran?" thought Grim.
He thought that if he was strong, but he did not think that Noran could easily force him.
After finishing eating their food, Noran asked how the current situation of the city was.
"What's the situation in the city?" ask Noran.
"The current situation of the city is getting better sir, there are 5,000 new residents coming. Currently the town of Kristal has enough residents" said Grim.
Noran recalled the situation of Turin city and the other three villages, they did not have enough troops.
"Send an order to Toun to bring 150 soldiers to the city of Turin, and bring their low-level warriors here.
I will train them to be strong warriors.
I also want to open a military registry for the youth, let Ruli take care of it" Noran said.
Grim nodded, leaving Noran and carrying out his orders.
Now all the goblins and wind wolves that exist have reached level 100 and evolved into Cheif level monsters.
In the wild, for monsters to reach level 100 would be extremely difficult, only a few out of thousands of monsters would succeed.
With Noran's guidance, they increased their intelligence and leveled up safely and efficiently, this increased their chances drastically.
There are 100 normal goblins seen around this forest, dozens of tree houses are quite large in the wake with several bridges connecting them.
The goblins climbed through a ladder made of tendrils and twigs, similar to a ladder from a rope.
Under the tree, they made a place for wind wolves to rest. It seems like their intelligence is increasing rapidly.
There are also about 20 goblins and 20 windwolves guarding the tunnel that connects their settlement with the forest.
Noran then decided to go to the forest in the Rosvelt region, there were still 15 other goblin riders there.
Noran was surprised when he saw that there were more goblins and wind wolves here, the goblins immediately gathered and surrounded Noran.
25 Goblins and 25 other wind wolves have risen, now there are 250 goblins and 250 wind wolves around the cave.
Noran took them to a pine forest, letting them build their settlement.
Noran then returned to the mansion, quite a bit of his business lately.
"Didn't I have 2 more mystery skill books?" thought Noran.
Noran then chose to open both mystery skill books.
[Dig! New skills detected! Skill : Acceleration! add to the skill list?
Yes/no]
[Dig! New skills detected! Skill :Silent Steps! Add to flat skill?
Yes/no?]
"Yes!" thought Noran.
Two more skills were now added to his skill list, one skill to increase speed and one skill to negate sound while moving.
Silent step is usually owned by the assassins along with shadow step, illusion body and some other skills.
Just as he was about to see his skill, someone came to enter his room and came to him.
Blonde hair and bright blue eyes like sapphire, she wore a dress that was quite simple, adding to her natural beauty.
"Eslope? Why are you here?" Noran was surprised to see it.
The girl just smiled looking at Noran, she came up to him and sat down beside him.
"I heard you're back, so I'm here" Esline said.
He sat beside Noran, asking about the situation at the border of the kingdom.
"What's the situation at the border?" ask Esline.
"The situation there was bad, the Zugen empire sent many of their troops and attacked the city of Wensol, where we came.
We lost, and now that Wensol has fallen into their hands, I think there are other cities that have fallen as well" Noran said.
Seeing Noran's bitter expression, Esline switched the conversation and took Noran around, he came to play with Noran.
"Aren't you supposed to be at the academy?" ask Noran.
"We're free right now" Esline said as he pulled Noran away.
