Handling The Duty

Baron Maxwell, even didn't think about getting an extra Baron status for their son, he was just thinking how to save their position. But his son's thinking was so much more grand than his.

"So, father, forget about stopping me, I am going to become ready for the trip," Sharky said, no matter what Baron Maxwell was thinking, it did not matter.

Sitting there and hearing the grand plan of Sharky, Baron Maxwell lightly sighed and said, "After going there, you must be careful. And I will hope and pray that you will complete your wish, and bring back more glory to our family."

"Of course, father," Sharky nodded, and he maintained a bright smile on his face. "I will leave after three days."

"Okay," In the end, Maxwell looked at Sharky and lightly sighed as he said, "When the time comes, I will personally send you."

"Alright."

Sharky smiled as he nodded before continuing to chat with Baron Maxwell for a while.

Following this, Sharky got up and left.

After leaving the hall, he went back to his own room.

As Sharky came inside his bedroom, he heard the sounds of sweeping; there was someone cleaning within his room.

Sharky opened the door and saw a girl in black clothes with a broom in her hand, diligently cleaning the room.

It was Tina.

"How much time have I told you to not clean the room, but give it to some maid?"

Walking in, Sharky smiled and instinctively stretched out his hand, he caught her waist and pulled in his arms.

"No, I can't give this duty to anyone. What if they don't clean it properly, don't tell me to stop cleaning," Tina said, while enjoying his embrace.

She is not going to stop cleaning his room, clothes, she was really stubborn when it came to him. "Have you eaten?" He asked.

"No, I haven't… How can I eat without you?" She replied, she exited the room saying, "Wait for me, I am bringing back the food."

Sharky smiled before sitting down. At the same time he noticed a notification, which was popping in front of him.

!!Hidden Task - Take enrollment in Alexa Royal Academy - Reward 100 Points!!

This is the reason why Sharky wants to go to the Alexa Royal Academy, and also he wants to create connections, which helps him in climbing the status.

....

Jit had never believed that there were geniuses in this world, but looking at Sharky, there were not any words he could say.

If it comes to knowledge, Sharky is best, if it comes to business, Sharky is best. And even, when it comes to fighting or sword fighting. Sharky is like always, best.

Sharky was a true genius.

"Master, why did you call us," Jit asked politely.

"From the next few days, I have planned to move to Alexa Royal City. So, before going there, I want to arrange everything here," Sharky explained the reason.

"Sir, with you going, how can we handle this," Jit asked. He knew all of the things that would benefit them, and their family and friends. It is all because of master Sharky.

"I know, but don't worry, I will prepare everything. And gives you the list of the tasks. You just need to do them, and everything will be good. And even if something happened, you can inform me through the letter," Sharky explained.

"Ok," Jit nodded.

Both of them talked for a long time, they didn't even realize when the afternoon passed and evening came.

Sharky looked at the sky, "Time passed so quickly."

"Yes, master," Jit nodded. He was ready to go home, "Please excuse me."

Sharky smiled as he said, "Let me send you home."

"There's no need to trouble you…" Jit instinctively refused. He did not dare to trouble Sharky, but before he could finish his sentence, Sharky grabbed his hand.

"No need to be polite," Sharky smiled and said, "I happened to also want to go out, and this is just along the way."

He did not give Jit the chance to refuse.

Following this, they walked out along the main road.

Coincidentally, there were some people gathered, training nearby.

Jit could not help but look back at them.

There were many people he was familiar with; they were all his previous friends who were managing the restaurant. But now, they were also getting trained to fight the enemy. Since, some trouble always comes to them.

Sharky patted his shoulder and comforted him.

As Sharky walked closer, some of the guards also saw them.

"Master, they are all ready to save our hotel from any danger," One of the guards comments.

"Good," He said, then he called an attendant over and said, "Send some people to bring some cold drinks to help soothe these tired soldiers' weariness."

That attendant quickly left, while Sharky helped Jit onto a carriage.

Following this, they began a journey.

Sharky thought something to himself before saying, "I heard that true Knights have great power and can rival an army by themselves. Is this true?"

"This…" Jit paused for a moment, not expecting that Sharky would ask such a question.

However, he quickly gave an answer.

"There are indeed such legends," Jit nodded and said, "And I have heard of such tales. However, I have never personally met someone like that before."

His answer revealed some information, which was that Knights existed in this region but there were not many of them.

This was not too strange. He found that remote regions lacked true Knights and noble families that had the legacies of Knights.

The region he was currently in was most likely a region that had fallen behind.

"But then again… regions that are a bit behind are good too…"

Thinking back to the information he had gained, he inwardly nodded.

Regions that had fallen behind meant that they did not have very strong forces, and they would not have powerful Knights.

Looking at Sharky in front of him, Jit could not help but smile, because his master was very benevolent.

If this was other territory, a person like Jit is not even worthy to talk with the Baron's son, forget about getting treatment like this.

For him to lose an arm, to those people, he was already useless and not worth any attention or thought.

Perhaps only Sharky would pay such attention to him.

Thinking there, he could not help but feel somewhat touched, and his gaze towards Sharky became more grateful.

After sending Jit home, Sharky then made a symbolic visit to the surrounding residents before leaving.

When they were leaving, all of the residents came to see him off. It seemed that they had a pretty good impression of the sons of the Baron.

On the way back within the carriage, the attendant serving Sharky felt quite confused.

"Young master…"

He hesitated before continuing, "You seem to treat us commoners a bit too well…"

Looking at Sharky's familiar face, he could not help but feel quite confused.

"You don't understand…"

Looking at his attendant, Sharky only smiled and shook his head, but he did not look like he was going to explain.

In actuality, he wanted them to live better, if he was able to make it. And since he can, why not do it. Moreover, these people were his future subordinates. From his five hundred years of legacy, Sharky knew, always treat the commoner kindly.

Because for common people, just being a little bit kind, they were ready to even sacrifice themselves for you.

Meanwhile, he also gained a good reputation. A good reputation was also a kind of strength. Since it was like this, why would he be against doing this? Moreover, at the end of the day, it did not cost him much.

...….

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

In these three days, Sharky already arranged everything which will make his territory become richer.

He even managed to calm Tina and arranged for her to take care of the territory after he leaves here.

At first, Tina is strictly against leaving the Sharky and taking care of this territory, but after some consoling and promises, she finally agreed.

Sharky also didn't want Tina to leave here, but he knew after him, the only one who could take care of his business was Tina, and not any other person. Because she was with him all the time, she knew what he did.

Early in the morning on the third day, Sharky came outside.

Outside the residence, there was already someone there.

"Father, why are you here?" Sharky hurriedly went over and asked respectfully.

Baron Maxwell wore a gray robe and he did not look too good; there were dark rings around his eyes, looking like he had not slept well last night.

"I wanted to send you both off," Baron Maxwell shook his head as he spoke.

Now that his children were about to leave, as a father, how could he not feel worried.

He had not been able to sleep well the previous night, and he somewhat wanted to keep Sharky here.

However, in the end, he reigned in his impulses and rationally stopped himself.

"Remember to be careful on this trip," he looked at them as he lightly sighed.

"I understand," Sharky smiled as he nodded looking at ease.

He thought about it and came before Baron Maxwell. Looking at him, he said earnestly, "I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for a while after leaving this time."

"I hope that while I'm not here, father, you will take care of your body and that I will be able to continue enjoying meals with you when I'm back…" he spoke lightly, his expression sincere and serious.

Around him, Mr White and the others felt quite touched by Sharky's filial piety.

Baron Maxwell's eyes reddened.

He opened his mouth as he looked at Sharky, wanting to say something. However, in the end, he was unable to say anything and only vigorously patted Sharky on the shoulder as he choked out a few words, "Be careful, and achieve your wish."

His eyes became slightly damp, "No matter what, come back safely."

"I will," Sharky smiled and replied earnestly.

After a while, Sharky began his journey.

They sat in the carriage and left this place.

On the carriage, Jit and the others accompanied him, either driving, navigating, or helping him with other things on the journey.

Only Baron Maxwell was left.

The cool morning breeze blew, making him feel a bit cold.

He stood there silently for a long time, and in the end, he could only give a long sigh, he didn't want to stop his son's dream.

After leaving Baron Maxwell's side, this was both good and bad.

The bad things were obvious; after leaving Baron Maxwell's side, if anything happened over there, Sharky would not be able to do anything about it.

On the other hand, the benefits of leaving Baron Maxwell were also evident.

First, he had the opportunity to see the world.

This world was very big, and just the Alexa Principality was very big. Baron Maxwell was just an ordinary, small noble, and he was not even worth mentioning in the entire Alexa Principality.

Even though Baron Maxwell's territory was not small, it was still limited. If Sharky remained here, it would not be beneficial to his future development.

Now that he could leave in advance and go to the Alexa Principality's most prosperous city to study, this was a very good opportunity.

Not only was it beneficial to Sharky's future, but it was also beneficial to him gaining Points, and completing his tasks. And most important, the way to find the Titanus DNA. Thinking about it, he looked ahead.

They had come to a narrow path.

The surroundings were very narrow, and a few people could barely pass through together.

"What happened, master?'' An attendant asked, when he noticed his master had a serious expression.

"Nothing, I just wanted to see, there were any variables," Sharky replied.

Looking at the terrain, Sharky silently sat up, his hand instinctively stretching out to the side and gripping his sword.

He had made preparations to deal with all variables.

However, as they passed through this place, they did not encounter anything unexpected.

"Well, it also saves me from dirty my sword," Sharky's expression was calm as he held the sword and thought to himself.

From Baron Maxwell's territory to Alexa was an extremely long distance.

With the long distance and the difficulty of traversing this world, it took Sharky an extremely long time to reach his destination.

It took two months for Sharky to reach his destination.

After reaching the Alexa Royal City, they settled down.

"It looks pretty lively…"

Sharky slowly walked in the city, looking around.

From how he saw it, this city was quite undeveloped. The layout of the city was quite messy, and the flow of people was quite chaotic.

There would occasionally also be smelly odors; it seemed that the city's waste management was not very good either. It looks, he needs to give some advice to his brother.

If this city was compared to previous Baron Maxwell's territory, this place was already quite good. It at least looked quite prosperous, and it was better than the previous places that Sharky had seen.

But after Sharky developed his territory, this Alexa Royal City was not worth mentioning, it was greatly lacking and could not be compared at all.
