ACT 9 Start of the Real Battle
“Who is that person?”
“Looking at the attire doesn’t he seem to be a nobleman?”
“I think I’ve seen those knights somewhere before.”
The users around the magic tower murmured. They were looking at the 10 knights who walked out of the magic tower. The leader of the knight procession wore shining armour. And at the centre of the group was a young man wearing white clothing who approached Ark. The first person to react to the young man’s appearance was the manager of the warrior’s guild branch. The branch manager confirmed the sentences inscribed on the youth’s clothing and moved back one step. He moved his clenched fist to his chest and shouted.
“Everyone line up, show respect to the Lord of Jackson!”
The NPCs from the merchant’s guild and the Magic Institute also followed his example. Yes, the young man who appeared from the magic tower was Lord Jackson.
“L-Lord-nim?”
“Ark, it’s been a while.”
The Lord’s white cape fluttered as he ran up to Ark and grasped his hand.
“How long as it been?”
“Why is Lord-nim here……?”
Ark stuttered as he looked at Lord Jackson and the knights with confused eyes. Apart from the Lord, he was also acquaintances with all the knights. They were Cross and the knights who participated in the Silvana siege. When they noticed Ark’s attention, they gave him a small smile and nodded. Why had they come all this way to Lancel village? The Lord who had become a dignified youth smiled and answered his question.
“Of course we came here because of you.”
“Me?”
The Lord tilted his head at Ark’s befuddlement.
“What’s with this reaction? You really don’t know anything about it?”
“Don’t know? What are you talking about?”
“Hah. Galen, what’s going on?”
‘Galen?’
Ark followed the Lord’s gaze. Then a person who had been hiding behind the knights awkwardly came forward. It was Galen who had disappeared after leaving the reconstruction project to Ark.
“Galen, why are you with the Lord……?”
Ark still couldn’t grasp the situation at all. It wasn’t just Ark. Standing near him were Bread, Sid and the three guilds. The village residents had also stopped their work and gathered around. Even the users gathered around the magic tower looked on with wondering expressions. Galen’s face looked slightly apologetic before he said.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t tell him in case it couldn’t happen.”
“Hmm, so you really don’t know anything.
The Lord looked at Ark mischievously. After a brief moment, the Lord looked serious and said.
“Sir Ark, kneel and receive this Imperial Order from His Majesty the king!”
“Sir Ark? His Majesty’s Imperial Order?”
“Do as he says.”
Galen whispered in a low voice. Ark looked between Galen and the Lord before kneeling. Then the Lord pulled out a sword ornamented with Jewels before tapping it against Ark’s shoulder and speaking in a loud voice.
“I am the Lord of Jackson, Haverstein the 2nd and I hereby bestow upon Ark a knighthood on behalf of His Majesty, the King of Schudenberg. You will also gain the title of Baronet and obtain the right to own a land. The Honourable Knight Ark has been granted the Lordship of Lancel village. Although there are some who opposed this decision, His Majesty the King of Schudenberg has decided. Then let all of these contents be applied to Sir Ark!”
‘Honourable Knight? Baronet? Lord?” Then perhaps……?’
Ark couldn’t believe his ears. All of a sudden he had become knighted, received a baronet and became the Lord of Lancel? What on earth was this? However, the Lord did not give him time to think. The young Lord pulled out a golden scroll, untied the silk ribbon and unrolled it.
“Sir Ark, receive the order from His Majesty.”
Ark received the scroll with a stupid face and stuttered.
“Baronet? Lord? What are you saying?”
After handing Ark the scroll, the young Lord immediately looked playful again. And he pointed to Galen and laughed.
“Ask your friend over here. He is the one who arranged everything.”
“Galen arranged this?”
“Yes, of course I helped a bit as well.”
“What does that mean…..?”
“Galen, everything is finished so shouldn’t you explain it now?”
“I understand.”
Galen laughed and approached Ark.
“I don’t know where to begin….. Hmm, yes there is no need for a long explanation so I’ll just say it. I’ve been thinking about it for a while but I finally realized after the village was attacked. You have a large presence among the residents.”
Galen said as he looked at Ark.
“It is natural. From the beginning, this village also died out until you helped us. And all the residents have found a new home in Lancel because of you. In other words, Lancel couldn’t exist without you. That also applies to this attack. If you weren’t here then we would’ve been destroyed by the thieves.”
‘Well, he’s not wrong.’
Ark shamelessly agreed. But he pretended to be humble when about the situation.
“You’re overpraising me. Certainly the residents of Lancel were collected by me. But are they able to rest here in unity because of Galen ajusshi? The residents of Lancel village are also indebted to Galen ajusshi for opening your heart to them.”
“That’s not true. I just manage the place. If it wasn’t for your existence then the beast clans, the ex-thieves and the Baran would never be able to live in unity. I’ve realized this clearly after the attack from the bandit group. So I decided that it will be best to entrust Lancel village to you. After the battle was over, I gathered the residents and revealed my intention.”
Galen pulled out a thick roll of paper. The roll of paper was stamped with the soles of a cat and dog, the palm of the raccoons, the signature of the people and so on. What was this? A cartoon? A code? A joke? Galen smiled at Ark’s doubtful look and said.
“This is the answer of the residents. They all signed that they are willing to entrust Lancel village to you.”
……The soles and palms of the beast clans were their signatures. It seemed to pour cold water upon the serious atmosphere but he felt a pain in his chest at the sight. Then all the residents gathered here already knew about it? And they signed that they wanted to leave Lancel village to Ark? When Ark looked around the ex-thieves, Meow, Wolrang, raccoons and other residents scratched their heads with embarrassment and avoided his gaze. Galen had gone away for a while because of him. After the Lancel defensive war finished, Galen immediately visited the Lord Jackson. Then he explained everything that occurred in the village to the Lord. The threat of Lance village closing, the movement of new settlers, making the village grow, the food crisis and finding the Sacred Soil and defending the village from thieves…… Then he showed the Lord the signatures of the residents who wanted Ark to be in charge of Lancel.
“This is a very fun talk.”
As one of Ark’s fans, the Lord Jackson happily accepted Galen’s request. Geographically Lancel belonged to the Jackson region, but since it was a pioneer village it wasn’t under the control of the Lord. And since it was a small village, it also didn’t need a Lord. But the words of the village residents changed that. How could he stop a free village from appointing a Lord? But Galen didn’t just want a Lord to be appointed, he wanted it to be acknowledged by the King. And to become an official lord, a noble rank was needed. So Galen had deliberately gone to Lord Jackson with the signatures. As an adoring fan of Ark, the Lord directly sent a letter to the King.
“His Majesty easily agreed. He hadn’t forgotten your achievement in bringing down Alan and the Ankh church. Of course, defeating the bandit group and having the signatures of the residents greatly helped.”
The young Lord placed his hand on Ark’s shoulder and said.
“Now, don’t you have an answer to give?”
“Huh?”
The young Lord pointed towards the gathered residents.
“You still haven’t given them an answer for their support. The King was the one who gave you a barony but they are the ones who appointed you as the Lord.”
Ark felt something warm in his chest at the young Lord’s words. It had been 1 year and 6 months since he first encountered Lancel village. In the meantime, Ark had experienced an amazing adventure while gathering the residents. That was why he built the memorial for the NPCs despite his money loving personality. Yes, it was already impossible to separate Ark from Lancel. Now Lancel had truly become Ark’s village. And he was chosen by the residents! Despite being NPCs in a game, Ark still recognized his feelings for them.
“……I accept the Lordship.”
Ark answered as he released the bottled up emotions. There was a ringing sound and the information window appeared.
-You have acquired the ‘Peerage Bestowment Certificate.’
The ‘Peerage Bestowment Certificate’ grants you the title ‘Honour Knight’ (Baronet) and you’ve gained a plot of land.
Foreigners in New World have an equal status to commoners. But sometimes a foreigner will have a big achievement within a kingdom and they were be given a chance to rise up in the nobility. Being granted a noble title has far more meaning than just a title. The increase in social status means the user’s achievement has been recognized by the kingdom and it will have a significant impact on all future works.
* After receiving a noble title bonus all stats will increase by 5.
* Fame has increase by 5,000.
* When completing a quest given by an NPC with a noble title, your status (Honour Knight: 100 people) will allow you to receive the sup
