Tribulation of Mysteries

Chapter 5:



Not long after, five ugly men came forward.

They were generally wearing shabby linen clothes, and their faces were full of wrinkles. It was obvious that they had not taken care of themselves, so much so that it was impossible to tell their original age.

"Your names …"

Aaron Sotos sighed in his heart and asked.

"I am Sanchez."

"Green."

"Beck."

"Adam."

"Eight Fingers, my lord."

The five militiamen each reported their names. Aaron glanced at the man named 'Eight Fingers' and saw that he was about thirty years old. He had a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. When he saw Aaron's gaze, he revealed a fawning smile. Unfortunately, his rotten teeth lowered his appearance by quite a bit.

Aaron glanced at the man's left and right hands. Sure enough, his little finger was missing. His heart skipped a beat.

According to the law set by Theodore, if someone stole in the territory, they would immediately be punished with the 'chopped off' punishment!

'This person had two fingers chopped off, which means he was caught twice. Who knows how many times he was not caught …'

'A despicable thief or an honest farmer … Father really gave me a good choice.'

Aaron's voice became serious. "From today onwards, you are your respective team leaders. You must complete the tasks I give you, especially on the battlefield. Do you understand?"

A wave of feeble responses rang out. It was obvious that this was a group of seasoned soldiers.

On the battlefield, survival was the most important thing. They might have some skill in fighting for the spoils of war, but it was simply a dream to have them contend with a strong enemy!

Fortunately, Aaron did not have many fantasies.

To the feudal lord, they were just a cannon fodder.

As for Aaron, having this group of people as a meat shield was more than enough as long as they could distract the target when they needed to escape!

"Now, let's start the training!"

He coughed and pointed at Eight Fingers with his longsword. "You, come over and spar with me!"

Aaron still had some knowledge of the art of controlling people, and now he was ready to show off his power.

The other party was just a thief who was often hungry and might have some experience in street fighting. No matter what, he was not a match for him who had undergone orthodox knight training!

In the forest.

After teaching the captains a short lesson to establish his authority and promising to distribute the spoils in the future, Aaron took his bow and arrows and entered the forest to hunt.

Whoosh!

His archery skills had also gone through painstaking training. Although it was not as good as a professional archer, it was still something to be proud of.

At this moment, he caught a glimpse of his prey from the corner of his eye. He nocked an arrow on his bow and released it. The bowstring vibrated continuously.

Puff!

Not far away, a deer was pierced by an arrow and fell to the ground, a pool of blood flowing out.

"I'm in luck today. I can have an extra meal."

Aaron nodded and walked out of the forest with his prey.

Along the way, the commoners in the Lower Green Forest saw him and bowed to show their respect.

Aaron's face was cold, and he basically ignored them. After all, he was used to it, and it was impossible for him to answer them one by one. Only occasionally would he nod his head in greeting to a few important figures in the territory.

Not long after, they arrived outside the castle.

Ginny was about to go out, holding the hem of her cake dress. When she saw Aaron, she couldn't help but greet him. "Aaron … is this your prey?"

She had beautiful blonde hair, and her purple eyes, which were inherited from the Sotos family, were like gems. At this moment, she was blinking non-stop as she stared at Aaron's prey, her expression full of desire.

Aaron smiled and rubbed Ginny's head. "Don't worry. You'll get your share."

He was a little amused and recalled the past.

He still remembered the first time Ginny saw him kill a hare. The little girl's eyes were filled with tears. "Rabbits are so cute. Why do you have to kill them?"

Then … Aaron made a meal of braised rabbit meat and stuffed a piece into Ginny's mouth …

In the end, Jenny discovered a new world — it turned out that rabbits were not only cute, but also delicious!

Not only that, but their parents were also very delicious!

The deer were also delicious!

"Then it's a deal. This is our promise for life."

Ginny winked mischievously.

Aaron's hand couldn't help but slide down and pinch Ginny's smooth face.

Mm, it had to be said that little girls were the cutest. This made him a little frustrated. He should have had a daughter in his previous life. As for a son that even dogs despised, he would throw it aside for now.

Although … I didn't have a wife in my previous life …

"I'm already ten years old. Stop pinching my face."

Ginny angrily slapped Aaron's hand away. Her cheeks puffed up like buns, as if she was performing an art show.

"Haha!"

Seeing this scene, Aaron couldn't help but laugh happily.

Although Sonia and Sean were very annoying, this little sister was still quite cute.

He just didn't know if this kind of pure familial love could still be maintained after they grew up.

Thinking of Colin and Sean, Aaron couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

At night.

He entered Dreamscape again.

The originally blue sea refracted the scarlet light, but now it started to change. It started to turn scarlet, just like the 'Red Sea'!

Aaron raised his head and looked at the scarlet sun. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that the sun was becoming more and more scarlet, giving him a very uncomfortable and disgusting feeling.

It was so red that it was almost black, as if blood was about to drip down …

I can actually do such a thing in my dream …

Aaron looked at the direction he had set and didn't start moving.

According to his observation, moving also required energy.

And the energy he had accumulated for the past sixteen years had already been used up when he changed the sun.

Now that he had returned to his childhood, it was a good thing that he could start moving.

Energy is precious now, and we're facing the danger of war in reality. It's a waste to use it to move around. Why don't I try to find a way to help me … For example, I don't even need to bring the mysterious power in my dream to the real world. Just a ten-thousandth or one-hundred-thousandth is enough to make me invincible in the real world. It can even … make me immortal?

Desire appeared in Aaron's eyes as he tried to recall the feeling when he changed the sun.

That kind of — the power of the [Dream Creator]!

"I want to become stronger!"

"I want to obtain mystery!"

"I want to become extraordinary!"

In a way similar to a prayer, Aaron recited his needs in his heart.

A complicated and terrifying voice sounded in his ears.

As if that day had reappeared, endless chaos and madness surged out.

In an almost deranged state, Aaron received his own 'Feedback'!

[Insufficient mystery!]

"Mystery?This is the energy that I defined before, something that will be produced with my daily dream? "

Aaron found that in this half-crazy state, his authority had been increased, and he had a trace of 'omniscience' experience.

"Now, I can't change my body because I don't have …"

"Extraordinary consciousness can be obtained, but the energy is insufficient!"

"Moreover, it's easy to obtain extraordinary in this world, but it's very difficult to manifest in the real world!"
