New Simulation Attempt (Please Follow Up)

New Simulation Attempt (Please Follow Up). Three Suns hung in the sky, their radiance dyeing the entire heavens crimson.

July of the 492nd year of the Rin Winter Calendar was also known as the Scorching Moon, meaning the hottest month of the year.

There was not even the slightest breeze, and the thick air seemed to have frozen solid.

Under the scorching red sun, within Vieri Manor—

A young, handsome man stood bare-chested, somewhat stiffly swinging a Silver Longsword in his hand.

Sweat slid down Chen Mu's sharply defined muscles as he breathed heavily.

Practicing swordsmanship in such weather was difficult even with Chen Mu's Physique. It was simply too hot.

It was hard to imagine how those people endured wearing heavy armor if a Lord War broke out during this month.

He had not forgotten that the cause of his death in the previous simulation had been a Lord War.

Over the past few days, he had also investigated which territories had major conflicts with the Far East Territory, but he had found very little.

Chen Mu stopped swinging his Longsword, sheathed the Silver Longsword in his hand, and returned it to the Sword Rack in the courtyard.

"You've already done very well, Vieri. Being able to barely perform a basic swordsmanship routine after just over half a month is impressive enough. You have tremendous talent on the path of knighthood."

Seeing Chen Mu stop practicing, William Conley spoke with a faint smile, his tone carrying a trace of gratification.

William was the Guard Captain of Chen Mu's father, Earl Arthur.

He was a Grand Knight who had activated his Life Seed and traveled far along that path.

Some people who were at odds with the Far East Territory called this right-hand man, who had served as Earl Arthur's personal guard for thirty years, the Greedy Wolf Knight.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that Vieri Wesley had grown up under William's watch.

Seeing the young master embark on the same path his old master had once taken, it was no wonder William felt gratified.

"Sir William, I am deeply grateful for your generous guidance during this time. I will not betray your and Father's expectations. I will do everything in my power to become an honorable Guardian Knight."

Chen Mu placed his right fist over his left breast and spoke solemnly.

Having inherited all the memories of the original owner of this body, Chen Mu understood that people here seemed to place great importance on such formalities.

Sure enough, upon hearing Chen Mu's words, the smile in William's eyes deepened. He happily patted Chen Mu on the shoulder.

William bid Chen Mu farewell. Aside from teaching Chen Mu every day, he had other matters to handle.

A Grand Knight was an exceedingly noble existence no matter where he was.

After watching William leave, Chen Mu took a bath in the Small Bath within the Manor and changed into clean clothes.

After more than half a month, his aversion to water had become almost negligible.

After bathing, Chen Mu gently wiped the moisture from his blond hair with a handkerchief.

The next moment, a Transparent Screen appeared before him.

Name: Chen Mu

Spirit: 1.3

Physique: 2.1

Realm: Quasi-Knight (False)

Witchcraft: None

Knight Skill: Basic Swordsmanship (Beginner 12/100)

Simulation Attempts: 1

"A new simulation attempt!?"

The instant he saw the Transparent Screen, Chen Mu's heart leaped with joy.

He opened the panel every day just to see whether a new simulation attempt would appear. He had not expected one to actually show up today.

After calming himself, Chen Mu did not rush to begin the next simulation.

Instead, he pondered why he had suddenly gained another simulation opportunity.

Chen Mu racked his brains, but he could not think of anything special about today.

After all, his routine today had been the same as it had been for the previous half month.

If there was anything unusual, could it be that he had eaten one more apple pie and drunk an extra glass of milk than usual this morning? Chen Mu shook his head and dismissed the thought. It was simply too unreliable.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration appeared in Chen Mu's mind, and he instantly grasped the key to the matter.

"One month! Today is exactly one month since I activated the Simulator!

Could it be that I get one simulation attempt per month?

Whether that is true or not will have to wait until this time next month."

Chen Mu felt that this was most likely the case.

If he had to name any difference between today and the previous days, the only possibility was that today marked the thirtieth day since he had bound himself to the Simulator—commonly known as one month.

He did not know whether the Simulator's simulation attempts could accumulate, but he still intended to use this one first.

After all, it was necessary to increase his strength sooner rather than later.

The next moment, a line of black text appeared before him.

Begin Life Simulation?

"Yes!"

Chen Mu answered in his heart without hesitation.

The blue screen vanished, and lines of black text began appearing before Chen Mu.

Chen Mu read them carefully, ensuring that he would not miss a single detail.

Life Simulation activated. Due to the Simulator's low version, only Text Simulation is supported.

Age seventeen: You adapted to the new environment and gained the Physique of a Quasi-Knight. You began practicing riding, archery, and swordsmanship.

Age eighteen: Because of your exceptional physical qualities, your riding, archery, and swordsmanship improved by leaps and bounds. In only one year, you reached the level of a knight apprentice.

Age nineteen: In only two years, you met the requirements to practice a Breathing Technique. Your father, Arthur Wesley, called you the most talented knight the Wesley Family had seen in nearly three hundred years.

Age twenty-one: After practicing the Breathing Technique for two years without activating your Life Seed, you wanted to take Secret Medicine to forcefully activate it.

Age twenty-two: Your father, Arthur Wesley, refused your request. However, to prevent you from becoming disappointed, he taught you the Wesley Family's inherited Knight Skill—Lionheart Slash.

Age twenty-three: Lionheart Slash was the Wesley Family's only Knight Skill that could be performed without qi. You spent the entire year practicing Lionheart Slash.

Age twenty-five: You trained Lionheart Slash diligently and persisted in tempering your Physique, but after three years, you still could not activate your Life Seed. Unable to persuade you otherwise, your father could only agree to let you take Secret Medicine.

Age twenty-six: You took Secret Medicine, but the activation failed. Though disappointed, your father still comforted you and told you not to lose heart.

Age twenty-nine: You took Secret Medicine a second time to activate your Life Seed, but failed once again. Helpless, you could only give up and focus on honing your Knight Skills.

Age thirty-two: A Lord War broke out. You fought with everything you had and killed two Formal Knights from the Garden Territory, but Grand Knight Lime Stonevis split open your armor with a single stroke. You died.

Simulation End. Please select your reward!

Retain Realm or Retain Spell

"Phew."

Chen Mu exhaled a breath of stale air. The black text began disappearing line by line, leaving only the final section behind.

"I still failed to activate my Life Seed and become a knight. I still died in the Lord War at the age of thirty-two."

Chen Mu muttered to himself. He had memories of the name Lime Stonevis.

Lime Stonevis served Earl Meilan, whose territory neighbored the Far East Territory. He was known as the Rock Knight.

Earl Meilan was also known as the Garden Count.

In Chen Mu's memories, this man had a good relationship with his father, Earl Arthur.

"Since I didn't activate my Life Seed and become a knight, I'll Retain Spell."

Chen Mu was also curious whether Knight Skills counted as spells.

The Simulator did not disappoint him.

The moment the thought arose, countless memories flowed into Chen Mu's sea of memories like a rushing current.

Memories related to riding, archery, swordsmanship, and the Knight Skill Lionheart Slash instantly appeared in Chen Mu's mind.

These memories felt as though Chen Mu had personally spent countless years practicing them.

Chen Mu could feel that his body had changed as well. His back was forcibly straightened at that moment, becoming exceptionally upright.

He could feel that although his strength had not increased, he could wield it better now.

How should he put it? If he had merely possessed strength before, then now he had control over it.

And the reason for such a tremendous change was merely two simulations! In two simulations, Chen Mu had leaped from an ordinary person to a Peak Quasi-Knight who could even rival a Formal Knight.

(I'll write an extra 400 to 500 words in chapters with simulation content, so don't think I'm padding the word count ^.^~)
