I Am Legend

Ryth remembered that there was an Npc named Rudolf. He was a blacksmith before he accidentally broke his right hand, falling into a pit. After that, he stopped being a blacksmith and changed his occupation to a stockbreeder.

"Now, what time is it, Mr. Roland?" asked Ryth.

Mr. Roland looked at the clock that hung on the wall and replied. "It"s already 6 PM, why? Are you hungry? I can make vegetables soup for you, I have rice too if you want."

"Uhm, well, yeah I"m hungry, but that"s not what i meant." Ryth Shook his head. "What date is it today Mr. Roland?"

"It"s 5th of Mayn, why?"

"What was the exact date when you found me and my friends?"

"It was on 2nd of Mayn. It"s has been 3 days since I first found you and your friends." Replied Mr. Roland.

"So the date when i departed from Myrad city was 1st of Mayn. The date that i got attacked is the 2nd of Mayn. It seems like i have to rush things. I need to prepare tomorrow, since it"s already 6 PM and also I can"t move freely now. Let"s hope that tomorrow, I will be able to move freely without any pain." Ryth said to himself.

Ryth rolled the map and then helped Mr. Roland cook for dinner. The both of them ate and then went straight to their own bedrooms.

-------------

The sound of chirping outside the house woke Ryth up, he slowly opened his eye and found that his body doesn"t ache anymore. He quickly got up from his bed and did a short warmup to loosen up his body a bit. "Ahh... That felt good! I can now move freely!"

After some warmup, he walked towards the vanity mirror and start removing all the bandages on his body.

After he"s done with it, he saw there are many scars on his body, especially his hands. Those bandits sure did a number on this body. Seems like they have no mercy when it comes to killing someone. But the wounds were not that deep, He could still survive the attacks since he"s a skilled swordman. Even if they did managed to blind his left eye with an arrow, he still managed to survive from the fall. Although, at that time, he could have managed to avoid the attack but fatigue and exhaustion from a long journey made him less focused.

But Ryth didn"t want to remove the bandage covering his left eye. He wanted to ask Mr. Roland whether he have something he could wear to cover his left eye.

This new body of his has quite a handsome face, Ryth would have guessed since this body was born as a n.o.bleman. It"s almost like a typical features one should have when you are born rich and n.o.ble. With fair skin, big round eyes, thin sharp eyebrows and curly hair, indeed, he is a good looking n.o.ble. Though, the colour of his hair seems unique where it is between black and dark purple. And his height seems to be of average height for those around his age, at about 175cm

"If only i was born as handsome as this on earth, I would already have a girlfriend..." Ryth sighed. "Well that"s a good thing too, if i have a girlfriend, won"t she cry right now?" Ryth smiled bitterly and shooked his head. He has no family since his family died in a traffic accident a few years ago. So he"s really grateful that he was given a second chance to have a new life, even if his stepbrother is trying to kill him.

He really need to overthrow his stepbrother from the lord position so he could end this unnecessary fued once and for all. He also need to help the mother of the original owner of this body, that"s the only thing he could do for him.

Ryth put on his clothes and walked towards the door. When he opened the door, he found Llyod, Hill, and Mr. Roland sitting near the fireplace, chatting as they cooked their meals together. Mr. Roland then seems to remembered something and rushed out of the house.

The sound of the door being opened made them turned towards from where it came from. Then they saw Ryth standing quietly outside the door and hurriedly ran towards Ryth. They hurriedly ran towards Ryth, each of them grabbing one of Ryth"s shoulders, with a worried look in their faces. Just when Hill wanted to say something, Llyod interrupted him and shouted, "ARE YOU OKAY, MY LORD??"

Ryth felt slightly surprised by their reactions and their worried faces since he is not used to interact with these kind of people. What made him surprised the most was the expression Hill showed to him, this is the second time he saw him showing an expression.

"Sshh!" Ryth put his index finger in front of his lips and hurriedly said in a low voice. "I didn"t tell Mr. Roland about my true ident.i.ty... or did the both of you tell him about me?" asked Ryth, feeling anxious.

Llyod slapped his forehead, turned his head to Hill and said in a low voice. "Sshh! you are too loud!"

No one talked after some time, both Ryth and Hill sighed in unison before Hill broke the silence. "My lord, I realized that Mr. Roland called you Myth, so i tried my best to shut this old geezer"s mouth before he say something unnecessary. No need to worry, my lord."

Llyod rebuked. "You are the same age as me! who are you calling an old geezer?!"

Hill rolled his eyes at Llyod. Ryth heaved a sigh of relief and said. "I will told him when we are ready to face the worst situation. Until then, i hope you guys will keep our ident.i.ties a secret."

"Yes, my lord!" both of them saluted at Ryth.

"Both of you need to start calling me "Myth" from now on, understood?" said Ryth as he took out the map that he received from Mr. Roland yesterday.

"You lost your left eye, right, my lord? we really are sorry, we couldn"t protect you properly..." said Hill. Both Llyod and lowered their heads in shame.

"No need to worry about my left eye. We have something more important to do! follow me!" replied Ryth.

They walked in to Ryth"s room, Ryth opened the map and place it on top of his bed. "So this is where we are now. Around here," Ryth pointed at a certain area near the Fener Village on the map as he continued. "There should be a dungeon around here, we need to go there. I must obtain certain items inside this dungeon."

"We need to get some equipments for us to wear, Is there any strong monsters inside the dungeons?" asked Hill.

"No, it"s full of low ranking monsters such as slimes and goblins. Even without a good equipment, we still could clear this dungeon with ease." Answered Ryth.

"No problem then! with me and Hill on your side, no need to worry about any monsters! haha!" exclaimed Llyod.

"Okay then. I already asked Mr. Roland when we were cooking earlier whether he has any equipments for us to wear. And he said he has some for us." said Hill.

"Right, lets get ready now, we will head to the dungeon once we have everything here covered." Ryth said with a smile. Hill is really reliable.

There are bags for him to use, which Mr. Roland gave them to him yesterday after Ryth got inside his room. Mr. Roland said that he could use it, since he thought Ryth and his friends won"t be here for long after they recover from their injuries, they could take those bags with them to bring some things for their journey. Ryth rolled the map and put it inside his bag, and told Llyod and Hill to notify Mr. Roland that they need some equipments they could use for raiding a dungeon.

Mr. Roland hasn"t returned yet, so Ryth, Llyod and Hill ate their breakfast first. After some time, Mr. Roland have returned and Llyod told him about the dungeon. Mr. Roland nodded his head and led Ryth, Llyod, and Hill to retrieved their equipments in the warehouse. Ryth told Mr. Roland that he wanted to remove the bandages which covered his left eye. He then asked him whether he has something to cover his left eye instead of bandages. But unfortunately he doesn"t have anything, other than bandages, so Mr. Roland could only replaced the old bandages with the new ones.

After he"s done with the preparation, Ryth said. "Okay, lets go!"
