The existence of legends is the foundation of a kingdom or principality; a country without legends often means war.
Unless the kingdom has deep ties to the empire and receives temporary protection from another legend...
The rules of a high-magic world cannot be compared to those of a world where victory is achieved through sheer numbers and armies; legendary or higher-level powerhouses are simply too overpowered in terms of combat strength.
The universal values of the past do not apply to a world where the strong rule, and there is no reason for the aristocratic class to be overthrown. Of course, demigods or gods can try to create a different prototype of civilization.
The worshipper of the Kingdom of Gil, Will Richard, is over three thousand years old. He is not a demigod, and his lifespan cannot be estimated in the tens of thousands of years.
The strong can vaguely sense their own lifespan, and a kingdom may not necessarily give birth to a new legend in just over a hundred years.
The world has its own unique operating rules. Currently, some kingdoms and empires still have multiple legends, and there are quite a few kingdoms in the same situation as the Kingdom of Gil.
Recently, Ron and the princess have been going to school every day in two animal carriages, just like always.
Going to school, coming home, swordsman training, meditation...
It's been half a month, and in the last few days, Ron has finally sensed something was wrong. Could someone be watching him?
Until this day, the legendary Will made a grand and unpretentious visit.
Inside the courtyard, the princess greeted her relative in a coquettish manner: "Grandpa Will, you've come."
Back then, Will Legend had deep ties to the royal family. He watched Princess Sherry grow up, and now he has come to Ron because of the princess.
Upon hearing the title "princess," Ron immediately took it to heart, his first thought being that someone from the royal family had arrived. He intended to observe proper aristocratic etiquette, but Shirley cautiously spoke up beside him:
"Grandpa Will is a legendary revered figure in the kingdom, Ron, you..."
This means that Ron wanted to show respect. In fact, Ron usually didn't care about the royal family, but Grandpa Will was a legend. Although he wasn't a member of the royal family, he was more like one.
The word "legend" clearly energized Ron tenfold.
No way!
Even a nobody like him has attracted legendary attention.
Quickly adjust your mindset: "I have met His Majesty the Legendary Wel."
The Legend of Will gestured for the princess to move aside.
"Ron, are you willing to accept my teachings?"
"It's a great honor."
“Very well, I, Will, will stay here for the time being.”
"..."
After observing for more than ten days, Will made his choice, while Ron felt like he had won the lottery.
It may sound cliché, but that's just how it is. Unlike Jon, the Potions Master, Will Legend, as a swordsman, is genuinely helpful to Ron's main elemental ambitions.
Ron aspires to reach the pinnacle of magic swordsmanship. In terms of magic, thanks to the legacy of Micah Morris, the legendary space mage, Ron has gained much insight.
With the legendary swordsman Will guiding us on the swordsman side, this is wonderful.
Spellswordsmen generally focus more on swordsmanship, while magic users typically only need to master single-target spells specific to combat.
Single-target spells are fast but weak, making them suitable for close combat. Ordinary mages are better off with teammates, as powerful spells always take some time to cast.
The ceremony of paying homage to a mentor cannot be taken lightly. Ron took the initiative to prepare the most solemn ceremony. In some mysterious way, such a complex ceremony was still within the jurisdiction of the God of Contracts.
Worship and other physical rituals, plus spiritual rituals... ancient mentor-like incantations.
After graduating from the Royal Academy, one should find a mentor, but Ron did so much earlier than expected.
After the mentorship ceremony, Will's first words were: "Disciple Ron, protect the Kingdom of Gil until the Kingdom of Gil has a successor to the Kingdom's legendary offering."
"As instructed by my mentor."
The legend has reached this point; it's just a matter of Princess Sherry's considerations. Ron, if he has the ability, will agree.
Before they knew it, evening had arrived, and the legendary Will gave Ron his first training instruction.
Unlike the Great Swordsman Arno, the Legend of Ver is significantly more rigorous.
Ron was tortured terribly.
His combat awareness and other aspects of swordsmanship were gradually improving.
As night fell, Ron announced that he would be meditating, and it seemed that the Legend of Will was not pressuring Ron to switch to an elemental class.
Great!
Ron thought about it, and since the ancient mentoring ceremony had been completed, Ron even offered to let Mentor Will enter the meditation room.
Mentor and disciple share both glory and loss.
"No need. Spatial magic has no effect on me now. You'll understand when you reach the Legendary level."
Ron listened to Instructor Will's kind words without any surprise. What cultivation secrets could a legendary being possibly have?
His alliance with the Tulip Merchant Guild was merely a way to block troubles outside of the legend.
Legendary deities rarely appear before the world unless the kingdom faces imminent destruction.
But... Ron became a legendary disciple, accepting the circumstances with equanimity.
A kingdom should have legendary pillars, and an empire must have demigods to protect it.
Before entering the meditation room, Ron asked his mentor, Will.
"What does your mentor need right now? This might be helpful to you!"
Without hesitation, Ron took out the World Tree branch that was radiating vitality.
For the first time, the aging face of the legendary Will was moved.
Ron's talent is amazing. His hard work and dedication have already fulfilled one of Will's wishes, and there is a successor. Now, look at what he has brought out.
"Ron, do you know what this is?"
"It must be a treasure of the elves. I don't need it for the time being. We'd better keep this secret."
Having a powerful backer is more important than anything else!
It will be much easier to transport Micah Morris's remains across the two great empires in the future.
I wouldn't say I can walk sideways, but I feel safe and secure.
For the first time, Will Legend showed a relieved smile. He said nothing more, and his withered hand was shaken by the powerful life force within the World Tree branch as soon as it was taken.
He laughed and said, "This old man can live for several hundred more years..."
"May my mentor reach the realm of demigods soon."
"Reaching the level of a demigod is no easy feat, little Ron, you have shown your dedication."
With a slight shake of his head, Will Legend stored the treasure in his own spatial ring, ignoring the spatial ring that Ron had displayed.
Ron tucked the ring inside his clothes.
Such a small gesture from the disciple shows such good character, making things much easier for the legendary Will, unlike a certain princess...
Ron then asked, "Does this disciple need the spatial domain magic, specifically the meditation room, to be copied in the palace?"
"I'm willing to follow your lead, as these can increase your cultivation speed, but my mentor said that going too fast is not conducive to breaking through to the next level of life."
"As for you, Ron, just be careful."
"Yes, thank you for your guidance, mentor."
Afterward, Ron took the opportunity to make his first request to his mentor, a request for the sake of those around him.
"Master, could you please obtain some medicines that would help me break through to the next level? My parents and several friends are at a critical juncture in their cultivation."
"It's nothing. Take this and take the little girl to the palace! I'm taking on disciples, so you should at least see the king once..."
Ron took the magic token. On the token were two tadpole-like characters, the meaning of which was:
worship.
