The Refugee Incident within the territory has come to a complete end. Although no Source was found, the deployment of the guards by Baron Decisive resulted in the killing of several individuals, whose heads were displayed prominently around the territory, causing the refugees to gradually disappear.
During this brief half-month training period, Freya has made visible progress in her swordsmanship.
After executing several sets of movements, her actions were coherent and orderly, with nearly every strike landing in the same spot, and her speed was quite swift, though her strength still needed improvement.
However, Freya had the deepest understanding of her true progress.
Perhaps due to the high plasticity of her current body, she discovered that both her Agility and overall capabilities were significantly higher than before.
Having secretly observed the sword training methods of the guards, Freya realized that her current sword strike speed was twice that of an average guard. This meant that while others could only deliver one strike, she could quickly counterattack after blocking it, with a hundred percent accuracy due to her brain's processing ability.
Moreover, under Baron's personal guidance, her swordsmanship was much more efficient and concise compared to others.
Although she had not truly sparred with anyone yet, Freya believed that her current strength was already comparable to that of an ordinary Guard Member.
What she lacked now was merely a real test of her abilities.
…
In a simple bedroom, at a Writing Desk, a blonde girl dressed in an exquisite white hunting outfit sat quietly. She was flipping through a thin book in her hands, exuding a sense of tranquility and peace.
Next to the Writing Desk lay a wooden sword, its Brown Sword Hilt slightly shining from frequent use.
This was Freya half a month later, and the book she was reading had been brought back from the library; it was titled "The Book of Strength Levels."
Although her abilities had increased, she still lacked a clear understanding of her own positioning. Fortunately, she had discovered this book in the library.
However, the content inside surprised Freya slightly.
The book's content was quite simple; it primarily outlined the power associated with various levels of strength.
However, in this thin book, she saw something different: the essence of the strong physical qualities of the people in this world.
An ordinary person, through learning swordsmanship and training their body, can at most become a qualified ordinary soldier.
But to truly become a strong individual, one must undergo extensive life-and-death trials, pushing their body to its limits, transcending physical constraints, and awakening potential to achieve extraordinary power. At this point, these individuals will experience a subtle sense of energy. By refining and training this sense of energy, they can grasp its mysteries and become strong.
To attain this subtle sense of energy, only a small fraction of normal people possess the qualifications. However, some who have already become strong will actively condense their sense of energy into a small ability as a seed and implant it into others to enhance their own strength.
As a result, the originally refined sense of energy will be greatly enhanced under the influence of this seed.
This special method is not suitable for everyone; age matters. Those who are older do not qualify either. According to statistics from the strong, the most suitable age is around 15 years old.
However, this method only applies to those with the potential to become strong. Individuals with poor physical conditions or weak willpower cannot grasp its mysteries.
Those who successfully cross this threshold and gain extraordinary power are collectively referred to by officials as Transcendent Level, with their extended professions serving as titles, such as Knight or Swordsman. Further advancements include Great Knight level and Greatsword Master.
Upon reading this, Freya closed the book and looked out the window at the lush green forest outside.
"Based on my current assessment, my strength is at most at the level of an ordinary guard squad; perhaps slightly higher, but not by much. To transcend the limits of an ordinary person, I must either refine my body or accept a seed of energy from a strong individual."
She understood that as her strength increased, the success rate of receiving seeds would also rise.
"Fifteen years old... I wonder if my physical qualities qualify me to become strong."
As far as she knew, only a few individuals in the entire castle had broken through their limits to reach Transcendent Level, including Baron and Howard Bailey.
It was rumored that Baron once activated the energy within his body and instantly killed dozens of heavily armored warriors before retreating unscathed.
Such power has already surpassed that of ordinary people and reached superhuman levels.
Yet Baron still considers himself only at the Knight Level. The more powerful Great Knight is beyond what she dares to imagine.
"It’s time to test my limits," Freya thought thoughtfully.
...
Noon
Green Castle Restaurant.
At the long dining table, only a few people were present. Most had gone out on missions within the territory and would not return until evening. Those eating now were the permanent residents of the castle.
Today, Baron happened to be there as well.
Freya carefully sliced a piece of unknown meat with her knife while considering how to test her limits without drawing attention.
She speared a piece of meat with her fork and brought it to her mouth, immediately frowning slightly. The texture was particularly firm, yet it had a sweet undertone.
"Why does the meat today taste different from usual?"
"This is the Savage Bull that the guard team brought back from the forest this morning. It's much better than regular beef. What do you think?" Baron replied with a smile.
"I see, the meat is quite chewy," Freya nodded with a smile.
Since the territory was adjacent to the forest, some Guard Members on nearby missions would take the opportunity to hunt and deliver their catch to the castle kitchen as a reward. Because it was wild game, the meat was much firmer and tastier than that of domesticated animals.
Freya had often hunted in those woods before and had vivid memories of it.
As she continued eating, Freya fell into thought. Suddenly, she looked up at Baron and said, "Father, after lunch, I would like to go check out the forest."
Hearing Freya's words, Baron frowned slightly and replied in an unmistakable tone.
"No! Although the recent unrest among the refugees has been quelled, the dangers in the forest are not something you can withstand. Have you forgotten what happened before?"
"It's okay, Father," Freya interrupted Baron, insisting.
"I'm just going for a walk around. If you're worried, you can send two people to accompany me."
Seeing Freya's determined face, Baron's frown gradually eased.
He thought about how his once lively daughter had been confined for half a month; with her temperament, she might have already reached her limit. Moreover, the refugees in the territory had been completely cleared out, so if there were people accompanying her, there would be little danger.
With that in mind, Baron could only nod.
"Alright, but you should avoid going deep into the forest. There are things there that even I would prefer to avoid for a while."
"Okay, I understand." Seeing Baron speak, Freya smiled and nodded.
The dining table returned to its previous atmosphere.
