William read the evening news and got out of bed on crutches to move his body that was weak from slumber.

The calculations of 'Throne' were carried out uniformly through the server centers set up by 'Interactive Network Technology Co.' in many places around the world, and the players were actually sleeping while playing, so the game later became so popular that almost everyone was playing it.

However, as an experienced player, William knows in his heart that although it is cool to keep lying in bed and drowsing, there is a probability of sudden death, so he is very restrained in using the dreamcatcher.

After a few days together, the nurse on duty in charge of the orthopedic ward and he were already familiar with each other, and when she saw him walking out slowly with his crutches, she greeted him politely: "William, out to warm your body up, huh?"

"Yes, I went outside to get some fresh air in the garden."

The nurse nodded and asked curiously again, "Was the 'Throne' fun? It seems to be all the talk on social media about it."

William thought for a moment and said, "'Throne' is fun, you can buy a dreamcatcher and try it out."

Walking into the hospital garden, the last remnants of the sun still in the sky refused to set, William sat on a wooden bench, emptying his mind and began to drift off.

Why would he go back to 2025?

In 2035, he has his own home and work, and a kitten. If he could choose, he actually did not want to go back to 2025.

There were not too few patients scattered in the garden at this time, and an old man noticed William who was dazed, went to sit beside him and asked, "Young man, what are you thinking about?"

"Something has happened that I don't really want to face, do you have any suggestions?"

The old man thought William was out of love, after all, young people are always out of love.

He smiled and opened his mouth that had lost all his teeth and said, "I don't want my teeth to leave me either, and I can't keep any of them, do you have any suggestions?"

William rubbed his head, just about to say how such things can be controlled by man, and then he had an epiphany.

"Thank you, old man, I will repay you later."

The old man shook his hand and said, "I'm old enough to smell what death is like, and it's better to repay society than to repay me."

Without much to do for the time being, William logged on to 'Throne' again after returning to the ward, when the time in the game was late at night.

The militia had set up a tent and a sheltered sentry position in a clearing along the road, and the campfire that had just been extinguished was still emitting a faint light, with several torches stuck far around the camp for the night-blind sentries to keep watch.

William's game character appeared out of nowhere, did not cause the militia surprised, one of them quietly came over and greeted William in a whisper: "Lord priest, you are awake? Would you like something to eat? Old Jack caught some rabbits in a trap for a barbecue, and we haven't finished eating."

William shook his head to refuse his kindness, whispered: "No need, I devoutly believe in Polenesius, do not eat when there is no sun."

After saying that, William stretched out a hand and released a 'Inspire', a level 0 spell that can stimulate a person's spirit and make them feel uplifted.

Patting the shoulder of the militia who showed a comfortable expression because of the spell's effect, he visited the pick-up posts one by one, inflicting 'Inspire' on every night watchman inside, and then took his half-filled water jug, talking in a whisper with a few militia members and telling some jokes in regional and characteristics while drinking a few sips of fresh water .

Because of the torches set around, no monsters attacked the camp until dawn, when the militiamen all began to get up.

William still used the Praise the Sun prayer in the group to eliminate the effects of the hot sun on the militia, after which they departed for the bandit camp, which was still two days' journey away.

Traveling in the wilderness is not an easy task, monsters and bandits appear from time to time, if not among the ranks of the militia, William was afraid that they would have encountered a dozen battles.

Even so, the militia needed to find opportunities for different water and food along the way, and to decide in advance where to camp.

These for William also some unfamiliar skills were silently memorized in his mind, promoted to Extraordinary order before he traveled in the field is also required to consider these issues.

Especially since he had a lot of treasure digging and exploring planned for the next, the nearest one was even near the bandit camp that the militia was trying to eliminate.

Another day of hard marching, thanks to William's less effective, but very necessary spells, his reputation among the militia grew, and with it the militia's faith in Polenesius also gradually increased.

After all, the village of Kahn originally belonged to the Coronal Church's sphere of influence, and the villagers were basically shallow believers in the Sun God.

The only exception was the militia captain Relf, a powerful warrior who clearly lacked faith in any god, believed only in the weapons in his hands, and was somewhat hostile to William's aggressive missionary behavior, considering it a challenge to his authority.

If not for the parchment symbolizing divine authority in William's hands, once he assassinated William, what awaited him would only be the endless pursuit of Extraordinary order powerhouses of the Coronal Church Inquisition, and I'm afraid William would have had to face hostilities from Relf long ago.

In fact, even if there is no hostile action, as the captain of Relf's authority still to a great extent hindered William's missionary action.

William took it all in stride but was not impressed. The inauguration requirement for a special profession like ascetic monk is to sacrifice oneself with asceticism to spread the glory of Polenesius under the watchful eye of Polenesius.

Without Relf's obstruction, he might have had to find his own way to make things more difficult for himself to complete the asceticism requirement.

At dusk, the militia stopped at a suitable clearing and began to set up camp and prepare dinner.

William followed the custom of the game's sun worshippers, and after praying to the setting sun, sat alone on the ground to consume pastry and water.

These two things are really very difficult to eat, no wonder those monks in the church are giving them to the poor.

But in order to get the ascetic monk this special profession, William can only tolerate for the time being, Polenesius's watch will last for about a week, almost is the end of his mission to crush the bandits, he has prepared a grand show for this.

Take the first bucket of gold to start his 'path to the throne', whatever the cost.
